Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to agricultural product processing equipment technical field, especially a kind of tuber vegetable slicer. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the vegetable processing industry, the slicing of tuber vegetables (such as potatoes, radishes, etc.) is a common and important processing procedure. Traditional tuber vegetable slicing methods rely on manual operation of knives for cutting. This method is not only inefficient and labor-intensive, but also cannot guarantee uniform thickness and shape of the slices, affecting the quality stability of subsequent products.

[0003] With the development of mechanized processing, although some vegetable slicers have appeared, there are still many deficiencies. Some slicers cannot effectively correct the position of tuber vegetables during feeding, resulting in different postures of vegetables entering the cutting knife area, which can easily cause uneven cutting, incomplete cutting of some vegetables, and other problems. At the same time, for excessive or non-compliant vegetables, there is a lack of reasonable processing mechanism, which can easily cause equipment jamming or waste. In addition, the existing cutting knife mechanism is not perfect in structure design, such as inconvenient installation and replacement of cutting knives, cutting stability and efficiency of cutting knives need to be improved, and there is a lack of effective safety protection measures, which has certain safety hazards. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to develop a tuber vegetable slicing machine that can solve the above problems. SUMMARY

[0004] The utility model aims at providing a special mechanical equipment for tuber vegetable slicing, which can efficiently and accurately slice tuber vegetables to meet the quality and production efficiency requirements of the vegetable processing industry.

[0005] To achieve the above technical solutions, the technical solutions of the utility model are as follows: a tuber vegetable slicing machine mainly consists of a feeding device, a collecting mechanism, a distributing device, and a cutting device. The feeding device is responsible for lifting and conveying tuber vegetables from storage or stacking positions to the collecting mechanism. The collecting mechanism concentrates and converges the vegetables initially, and then conveys them to the distributing device. The distributing device corrects the relative position of tuber vegetables and re-conveys excess tuber vegetables back to the feeding device, ensuring that the number of vegetables entering the cutting device is appropriate and the position is accurate. The cutting device receives tuber vegetables from the distributing device and slices them, finally obtaining vegetable slice products that meet the requirements. Each part cooperates with each other to complete the entire processing process of tuber vegetables from raw materials to slices.

[0006] Further, the feeding device adopts an elevator as the main structure, the elevator has stable conveying capacity, can convey the tuber vegetables placed at a low place upward along a certain inclination angle, effectively overcomes the influence of gravity, and meets the docking requirements of equipment at different heights. The output end of the elevator is provided with a transfer conveying belt assembly, the transfer conveying belt assembly can stably receive the vegetables conveyed by the elevator, and further convey them to the material collecting mechanism, so that the vegetables will not fall or accumulate during the conveying process, and the continuity and stability of feeding are ensured.

[0007] Further, the material collecting mechanism selects a vibrating feeder, the vibrating feeder can make the tuber vegetables falling into it move to the discharging direction according to a certain rule under the excitation of vibration, so as to realize the orderly gathering and conveying of the vegetables. A material collecting hopper is arranged above the vibrating feeder, the material collecting hopper can collect and temporarily store the vegetables conveyed from the elevator, the large opening of the material collecting hopper can accommodate more vegetable raw materials, so that the vegetables will not overflow, and the shape and size of the material collecting hopper can be reasonably designed, so that the vegetables can fall into the vibrating feeder more smoothly, and the efficiency and stability of feeding are further improved.

[0008] Further, the material distributing device includes a material distributing support, which serves as the supporting structure of the whole material distributing device and provides a stable mounting basis for other components. The material distributing support is arrayed with an inlet conveying belt, which can stably transport the vegetables conveyed from the material collecting mechanism forward, so that the positions of the vegetables during the conveying process are relatively fixed, and subsequent correction and material distribution operations are facilitated. A correction assembly is arranged at the inlet end of the inlet conveying belt, the correction assembly includes a correction support arranged on the inlet conveying belt, the correction support is arrayed with a correction motor, and the output end of the correction motor is provided with a correction gear. When the correction motor drives the correction gear to rotate, the guide plate assembly can swing, and the tuber vegetables can be guided to the central position through the swing of the guide plate assembly, so that the positions of the vegetables are accurately corrected, and the vegetables can enter the subsequent cutting process in a suitable posture.

[0009] A backflow conveying assembly is arranged below the inlet conveying belt, the backflow conveying assembly is used for receiving excess tuber vegetables and conveying them to the feeding device again, so that the vegetable raw materials are recycled and waste is avoided. A guide plate is arranged between the inlet conveying belt and the backflow conveying assembly, the guide plate can guide the vegetables to fall from the inlet conveying belt into the backflow conveying assembly, and the parameters such as the inclination angle and the surface smoothness of the guide plate are optimized and designed to ensure that the vegetables can smoothly slide. The guide plate assembly can be adjustably installed on the material distributing support, the guide plate assembly can not only swing to correct the positions of the vegetables under the drive of the correction motor, but also can adapt to the material distribution requirements of tuber vegetables of different sizes and shapes by adjusting the installation position and angle, so that the versatility and adaptability of the equipment are improved.

[0010] Further, the cutting device mainly comprises a cutting frame, a cutting power source, a cutting mechanism and a shell wrapped around the cutting mechanism. The cutting frame provides a stable support frame for the whole cutting device, ensuring the stability of the cutting device during operation. The cutting power source adopts a cutting disc motor, which has the advantages of stable output power and adjustable speed, and can provide sufficient and stable power for the cutting mechanism to meet the requirements of different cutting speeds and cutting forces, thereby adapting to the slicing needs of different types and hardness of tuber vegetables.

[0011] The cutting mechanism comprises a cutting shaft rotatingly arranged on the cutting frame, and a receiving disc arranged in an array along the axis direction of the cutting shaft. The receiving disc plays a role of receiving and positioning the vegetables during cutting, so that the vegetables can be stably positioned on the cutting path of the cutting mechanism during rotation. The receiving disc is provided with a cutting blade at the central position along the axis. The shape, material and edge angle of the cutting blade are carefully designed to ensure efficient and accurate cutting of tuber vegetables. The cutting blade is installed in a manner facilitating disassembly and replacement, which is convenient for later maintenance. A three-pronged feeding seat is obliquely arranged at the feeding position of the receiving disc. The three-pronged feeding seat can guide the vegetables to smoothly enter the receiving disc and make the vegetables in the appropriate position when entering, facilitating the cutting operation of the cutting blade.

[0012] The receiving disc further comprises a cutter disc provided with an annular V-shaped groove at the central position. The annular V-shaped groove can better position and fix the vegetables to prevent the vegetables from deviating during cutting. A plurality of pushers are arranged in an array and detachably arranged on the cutter disc. The pushers can assist in pushing the vegetables during cutting to make them pass through the cutting area more smoothly. The pushers are provided with a recess groove matched with the three-pronged feeding seat, which ensures the structural compatibility and smoothness of the three-pronged feeding seat and the receiving disc.

[0013] A shell is wrapped around the cutting mechanism. The shell plays a role of safety protection, preventing the operator from accidentally contacting the high-speed rotating cutting mechanism during equipment operation, and avoiding safety accidents. At the same time, the shell can also block the vegetable debris generated during cutting to a certain extent, keeping the environment around the equipment clean. A first sensor is arranged on the cutting frame. The first sensor detects the light path obliquely pointing to the cutting mechanism. The first sensor can monitor the working state of the cutting mechanism in real time, such as the speed of the cutting blade, whether the vegetables enter the cutting area normally and other information, and feed these information back to the control system, so as to timely discover abnormal conditions and handle them, and ensure the safe and stable operation of the equipment.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1) The utility model has precise and efficient feeding and collecting:

[0016] The structure design of the feeding device adopts an elevator matched with a transfer conveying belt assembly. The elevator can overcome the gravity influence of the tuber vegetables, stably conveying them from a low place to a high place, meeting the docking needs of different height equipment, and the reasonable selection and surface pattern design of the conveying belt can effectively grab the vegetables and prevent them from slipping, ensuring the continuity of feeding. The transfer conveying belt assembly can stably receive the vegetables conveyed by the elevator and accurately convey them to the material collecting mechanism, and the two work together to make the whole feeding process orderly and stable, avoiding the vegetables from falling or piling up during the feeding process, providing a continuous and stable raw material supply for the subsequent processing link, and effectively improving the production efficiency. The cooperation of the vibrating feeder and the material collecting hopper in the material collecting mechanism is very clever. The larger opening of the material collecting hopper can accommodate more vegetable raw materials, avoiding overflow, and the reasonable conical shape design can guide the vegetables to fall more smoothly into the vibrating feeder below. The vibrating feeder moves the vegetables in a certain direction by relying on its own vibration, realizing the orderly gathering and conveying of the vegetables, allowing the vegetables to enter the material distributing device in a more regular state, which helps to more accurately correct and process the vegetables, further improving the working efficiency of the whole slicing machine and the stability of the slicing quality.

[0017] 2) The utility model discloses accurate material distribution and material recycling:

[0018] In the material distributing device, the feeding conveying belt array is arranged on the material distributing support, which can stably transport the vegetables and lay a foundation for subsequent correction and material distribution operation. The correction motor in the correction assembly drives the correction gear to rotate, and then drives the guide plate assembly to swing. This design can accurately guide the tuber vegetables to the center position of the feeding conveying belt, realizing accurate correction of the position of the vegetables. No matter how the posture of the vegetables is when they initially enter the conveying belt, it can be adjusted to a suitable position, ensuring that it enters the cutting device in an accurate and uniform posture, greatly improving the uniformity and accuracy of subsequent slicing, reducing quality problems such as uneven cutting and partial non-cutting caused by position deviation of the vegetables, and improving the overall quality of the products. The backflow conveying assembly arranged below the feeding conveying belt cooperates with the guide plate to form a clever material circulation mechanism. When the number of vegetables conveyed by the feeding conveying belt is too much and exceeds the processing capacity of the cutting device, the excess vegetables can fall into the backflow conveying assembly through the guide plate, and the backflow conveying assembly re-conveys these vegetables back to the feeding device. This design avoids waste of vegetable raw materials, realizes recycling of the materials, reduces production cost, and also ensures that the equipment can run stably when facing different feeding amounts, avoiding blockage and other faults caused by excessive feeding, improving the adaptability of the equipment to different production scales and the stability of the overall operation.

[0019] 3) The utility model has safe and high-quality slicing operation

[0020] In the cutting device, the cutting power source selects a cutting cutter motor, the output power of which is stable and the rotating speed of which is adjustable, so that sufficient and appropriate power can be provided according to different kinds and hardness of tuber vegetables to drive the cutting knife mechanism to rotate stably and meet the diversified slicing requirements. The cutting knife shaft of the cutting knife mechanism is provided with a receiving disc in the axial direction, which can well receive and position the vegetables during rotation to ensure that the vegetables are in a stable state during cutting, which is beneficial to precise cutting of the cutting blade. The structure design improves the stability and efficiency of cutting, makes the thickness of the cut vegetable slices more uniform, the shape more regular, and improves the product quality. The shell wrapped around the cutting knife mechanism plays an important safety protection role, which effectively isolates the high-speed rotating cutting knife mechanism from the operator to avoid accidents caused by accidental contact during equipment operation, thereby protecting the personal safety of the operator. The structure design of the receiving disc is also unique, and the cutter disc is provided with an annular V-shaped groove, which can better position and fix the vegetables to prevent the vegetables from shifting during cutting. The circumferentially arrayed and detachable push piece not only facilitates later maintenance and replacement, but also assists in pushing the vegetables during cutting to make them pass through the cutting knife area more smoothly. The first sensor provided on the cutting frame has a detection light path inclined to the cutting knife mechanism, which can monitor the working state of the cutting knife mechanism in real time, such as the rotating speed of the cutting knife, whether the vegetables enter the cutting area normally, and other key information can be accurately fed back to the control system. Once an abnormal situation occurs, such as vegetable blockage, abnormal cutting knife rotating speed, etc., the control system can issue an alarm and take corresponding measures, such as stopping the motor, to avoid further damage to the equipment, ensure the safe and stable operation of the equipment, reduce the downtime caused by faults, and improve the production efficiency.
