Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of corn trimming equipment technology, and in particular to a corn trimming device with protective function. Background Technology

[0002] Before processing, corn needs to be trimmed to remove excess corn heads. After trimming, the corn is steamed, bagged, and then packaged for sale.

[0003] A search revealed that Chinese patent CN217256545U discloses a corn trimmer, which includes a support platform, a slide bar, a sliding component, a connecting component, and an electric saw. The groove on the sliding component is used as the place for the corn, and the sliding component drives the corn to move along the slide bar. When the head of the corn moves to the position of the electric saw, the head of the corn can be cut.

[0004] In this patent, the sliding component needs to be manually pushed to move the corn, which is then cut by an electric saw. This poses a safety hazard. Furthermore, the electric saw in this patent has no protective structure, which also poses a corresponding safety hazard. Utility Model Content

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0024] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-6 The present invention will be further described below.

[0025] To address the problems existing in the background technology, this application proposes the following technical solution: a corn trimming device with protective function, including a housing 1, with casters 19 installed around the bottom of the housing 1, a motor 4 fixedly connected inside the housing 1, and a cutting blade 5 fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 4, the motor 4 driving the cutting blade 5 to rotate, thereby trimming and cutting the corn.

[0026] In addition, a collection box 3 is provided at the bottom of the housing 1 to collect the scraps after cutting. The collection box 3 is placed directly at the bottom of the housing 1. Furthermore, a control component for turning off the lights can be installed on the outside of the housing 1 to facilitate the setting of the equipment, such as controlling the display screen, etc.

[0027] In this embodiment, a protective plate 2 is fixedly connected to the outside of the housing 1 at the position corresponding to the cutting blade 5. The protective plate 2 is used to protect the cutting blade 5. A fixed frame 6 is fixedly connected inside the housing 1. A first threaded rod 7 is rotatably connected inside the fixed frame 6. One end of the first threaded rod 7 passes through the fixed frame 6 and is fixedly connected to a handwheel. A nut block 9 is threadedly connected to the outside of the first threaded rod 7. A guide rod 8 is fixedly connected inside the fixed frame 6. The guide rod 8 passes through the nut block 9 and is used to guide the nut block 9. Rotating the first threaded rod 7 can drive the nut block 9 to move. The nut block 9 drives the support plate 10 to move. The support plate 10 drives the corn to move, so that the corn can pass by the cutting blade 5. The motor 4 drives the cutting blade 5 to rotate, cutting the corn.

[0028] In addition, a support plate 10 is provided above the nut block 9. The support plate 10 has a V-shaped or arc-shaped structure. In this embodiment, it has a V-shaped structure. A height adjustment component is provided between the support plate 10 and the nut block 9. A clamping component is provided on the top of the support plate 10.

[0029] In the specific design, the height adjustment component is a third threaded rod 17 rotatably connected to the bottom of the support plate 10. The third threaded rod 17 passes through the nut block 9 and is threadedly connected to the nut block 9. A guide post 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 10. The guide post 18 passes through the nut block 9. By rotating the third threaded rod 17, the height of the support plate 10 above the nut block 9 can be adjusted, thereby meeting the needs of cutting corn of different diameters.

[0030] The support plate 10 also has sliding openings 11 on both sides. The clamping assembly includes a sliding frame 12 that is slidably connected in the sliding opening 11 and a pressing plate 13 that is fixedly connected to the top side of the sliding frame 12. The pressing plate 13 is used to press and fix the corn.

[0031] In a further design, a protruding plate 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 10, and a sliding sleeve 15 is slidably connected to the outside of the protruding plate 14. A second threaded rod 16 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the sliding sleeve 15. The second threaded rod 16 passes through the sliding frame 12 and is threadedly connected to the sliding frame 12. By rotating the second threaded rod 16, the sliding frame 12 drives the extrusion plate 13 to move downward, and the extrusion plate 13 clamps and fixes the corn.

[0032] The usage method of this embodiment is as follows:

[0033] Place the corn that needs to be trimmed on the support plate 10, then slide the adjustment frame 12 to make the extrusion plate 13 correspond to the corn. Then rotate the second threaded rod 16. Through the rotation of the second threaded rod 16, the slide frame 12 drives the extrusion plate 13 to move downward, and the extrusion plate 13 clamps and fixes the corn.

[0034] Then, the first threaded rod 7 is rotated, which drives the nut block 9 to move. The nut block 9 drives the support plate 10 to move, and the support plate 10 drives the corn to move, so that the corn can pass by the cutting blade 5. The motor 4 drives the cutting blade 5 to rotate, and the corn is cut.

[0035] In addition, by setting the second threaded rod 16, the height of the support plate 10 can be adjusted according to the corn of different diameters, so that the corn can be fully cut and trimmed.

[0036] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, the scope of the present invention will be defined by the appended claims and their equivalents for those skilled in the art.
