Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of meat grinder technology, specifically a meat grinder with an easy-to-clean inner wall. Background Technology

[0002] Meat grinders are used by meat processing companies to process raw meat into granular minced meat of varying sizes according to different process requirements. They are widely used in various industries such as sausages, ham sausages, luncheon meat, meatballs, savory flavorings, pet food, and other meat products.

[0003] Traditional meat grinders typically use a conveyor screw to continuously feed the meat into the grinding drum, where the grinding blades then cut the meat. The grinding drum is generally cylindrical with a certain length and contains a rotating shaft and conveyor screw. When cleaning the inner wall of the grinding drum, water can only be added for rinsing. Therefore, it's impossible to thoroughly clean the meat residue adhering to the inner wall of the grinding drum, and it's also inconvenient to clean the conveyor screw located inside the grinding drum, which is detrimental to practical application and operation.

[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art provide a meat grinder with an easy-to-clean inner wall to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

A flat key is installed on the outer side of the rotating shaft away from the meat grinder blade, and a keyway that cooperates with the flat key is provided inside the driven gear.

[0012] The above technical solution utilizes the fit between the flat key and the keyway to enable the driven gear to drive the rotating shaft to rotate while rotating, and the transmission relationship between the driven gear and the rotating shaft is not affected when the rotating shaft moves laterally.

[0013] Preferably, a control panel is installed on the outside of the machine body, and the motor is electrically connected to the control panel.

[0014] The above technical solution allows the control panel to control the motor's operation.

[0015] Preferably, a sealing ring is installed on the inner wall of the meat grinder cylinder near the first through hole, one side of the cleaning disc abuts against the sealing ring, a plug is threaded to one end of the opening of the meat grinder cylinder, a rotating seat is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the plug, the end of the rotating shaft near the meat grinder blade abuts against the rotating seat, and discharge holes are equidistantly provided on the outer side of the plug.

[0016] The above technical solution utilizes a threaded plug to allow one end of the rotating shaft to abut against the rotating seat inside the plug, thereby causing the other end of the rotating shaft to drive the cleaning disc to abut against the sealing ring, thus sealing that end of the cleaning disc.

[0017] Preferably, a circular baffle is installed at the end of the rotating shaft away from the meat grinder blade, and the diameter of the baffle is larger than the diameter of the second through hole.

[0018] The above technical solution uses a baffle to limit the lateral movement of the rotating shaft, preventing it from causing the cleaning disc to detach from the meat grinder cylinder.

Discharge holes are equidistantly opened on the outer side of the plug 17, which can be used to discharge the processed meat products.

[0031] The meat grinder cylinder 3 has a rotating shaft 4 that can move laterally and rotate. A conveying screw 5 is installed on the outside of the rotating shaft 4. When the rotating shaft 4 rotates, it drives the conveying screw 5 to work, thereby conveying the meat products entering the meat grinder cylinder 3. Meat grinder blades 6 are installed at equal intervals at one end of the rotating shaft 4. The conveying screw 5 conveys the meat products entering the meat grinder cylinder 3 to the position of the meat grinder blades 6, so that the meat products can be processed by the meat grinder blades 6. The end of the rotating shaft 4 near the meat grinder blades 6 abuts against the rotating seat 18. A cleaning disc 7 is rotatably connected to the outside of the rotating shaft 4 and to the side of the conveying screw 5. The outside of the cleaning disc 7 is in contact with the inner wall of the meat grinder cylinder 3. The lateral movement of the rotating shaft 4 can drive the cleaning disc 7 to move on the inner wall of the meat grinder cylinder 3, thereby scraping off the meat residue adhering to the inner wall of the meat grinder cylinder 3. One side of the cleaning disc 7 abuts against the sealing ring 16. The plug 17 is installed by thread, so that one end of the rotating shaft 4 abuts against the rotating seat 18 inside the plug 17, thereby causing the other end of the rotating shaft 4 to drive the cleaning disc 7 to abut against the sealing ring 16, thus sealing this end of the cleaning disc 7.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one aspect of this embodiment, a mounting plate 9 is installed on the top of the body 1 and on one side of the first through hole 8. A second through hole 10 is provided on the outer side of the mounting plate 9. A drive mechanism is provided on the outer side of the mounting plate 9. The drive mechanism includes a sleeve 11, a driven gear 12, a motor 13, and a driving gear 14. The sleeve 11 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the mounting plate 9 and located outside the second through hole 10. The driven gear 12 is fixed to the end of the sleeve 11 away from the mounting plate 9. The motor 13 is installed on the outer side of the mounting plate 9, and the output shaft of the motor 13 passes through the mounting plate 9. The driving gear 14 is installed on the output shaft of the motor 13, and the driving gear 14 meshes with the driven gear 12. By operating the motor 13, the driving gear 14 can be driven to rotate, thereby driving the driven gear 12 meshing with it to rotate, thus completing the drive operation. A control panel 15 is installed on the outer side of the body 1. The motor 13 is electrically connected to the control panel 15, and the motor 13 can be controlled to operate using the control panel 15.

[0033] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 In one aspect of this embodiment, the end of the rotating shaft 4 away from the meat grinder blade 6 sequentially passes through the first through hole 8, the driven gear 12, the sleeve 11, and the second through hole 10. A circular baffle 19 is installed at the end of the rotating shaft 4 away from the meat grinder blade 6. The diameter of the baffle 19 is larger than the diameter of the second through hole 10. Figure 5As shown, the baffle 19 can limit the lateral movement of the rotating shaft 4, preventing it from causing the cleaning disc 7 to detach from the meat grinder cylinder 3. A flat key is installed on the outer side of the rotating shaft 4 away from the meat grinder blade 6. A keyway that mates with the flat key is provided inside the driven gear 12. The engagement between the flat key and the keyway allows the driven gear 12 to drive the rotating shaft 4 to rotate while rotating, and the lateral movement of the rotating shaft 4 does not affect the transmission relationship between the driven gear 12 and the rotating shaft 4.

[0034] Working principle:

[0035] When using the device, first place it stably in the designated location and then power it on.

[0036] When meat processing is required, the meat to be processed is injected into the meat grinder cylinder 3 through the filling tank 2, and the motor 13 is controlled by the control panel 15 to work, thereby driving the drive gear 14 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear 12 that meshes with it to rotate. At the same time, the cooperation between the flat key and the keyway allows the driven gear 12 to drive the rotating shaft 4 to rotate while it is rotating. The rotation of the rotating shaft 4 drives the conveying screw 5 and the meat grinder blade 6 to work. The conveying screw 5 conveys the meat that has entered the meat grinder cylinder 3 to the position of the meat grinder blade 6, where it is processed. After processing, the meat is discharged through the discharge hole on the outside of the plug 17.

[0037] When cleaning the inner wall of the meat grinder cylinder 3 and the conveying screw 5 is required, firstly, the motor 13 is stopped via the control panel 15. Then, the plug 17 is rotated to remove it from one end of the meat grinder cylinder 3. Next, the rotating shaft 4 is pushed to move inside the meat grinder cylinder 3 via the baffle 19, simultaneously moving the cleaning disc 7, the conveying screw 5, and the meat grinder blade 6 inside the meat grinder cylinder 3. The cleaning disc 7 scrapes off the meat residue adhering to the inner wall of the meat grinder cylinder 3 and pushes it to one end of the opening of the meat grinder cylinder 3, thus facilitating cleaning and collection. Meanwhile, if... Figure 5 As shown, the conveying spiral 5 and the meat grinder blade 6 extend out to the outside of the meat grinder cylinder 3 along with the rotating shaft 4, thus facilitating cleaning operations.
