[0002] Eggs, also known as chicken eggs, consist of a shell, yolk, and white. Before cooking with eggs, the shell needs to be broken and removed. Some special dishes, such as cakes, require separating the yolk and white. Existing devices often fail to separate the yolk and white when breaking the egg, requiring a secondary centrifugation process. This significantly increases time costs and reduces efficiency. Therefore, this invention proposes an automatic egg breaking and separation device to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0028] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] Please see Figure 1-2 This utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic egg shell breaking and separation device, including a support 10 and three fixed frames 20 arranged on the support 10. The fixed frames 20 are provided with separation components and shell breaking components for separating egg yolk and egg white.

[0030] Please see Figure 3-4 The separation component includes an egg white collector 30 mounted on a side fixing frame 20, an egg yolk collector 3002 mounted on a middle fixing frame 20, a first fixing member 3003 mounted on the egg yolk collector 3002, and a plurality of egg yolk separators 3005 mounted on the first fixing member 3003.

[0031] The first fixing member 3003 has multiple fixing holes 3004, and the egg yolk separator 3005 has a filter hole 3006. The filter hole 3006 allows the egg white to flow into the egg white collecting member 30. The multiple fixing holes 3004 are evenly distributed in a circle. The number of fixing holes 3004 is equal to the number of egg yolk separators 3005. The egg yolk separators 3005 are located inside the fixing holes 3004.

[0032] Meanwhile, a first slot 3001 is provided on one side of the egg white collecting component 30, and a second slot 3007 is provided on one side of the egg yolk collecting component 3002. Both the first slot 3001 and the second slot 3007 are engaged with the fixing frame 20, which makes it convenient to fix the egg white collecting component 30 and the egg yolk collecting component 3002 on the fixing frame 20 or remove them from the fixing frame 20. The upper and lower sides of the egg yolk collecting component 3002 are open, and the top of the egg white collecting component 30 is open.

[0033] Please see Figure 5-6 The shell-breaking assembly includes a second fixing member 40 mounted on the other side of the fixing frame 20, a plurality of electric push rods 4003 mounted on the second fixing member 40, a fixing plate 4004 mounted on one end of the plurality of electric push rods 4003, a motor 4009 mounted on one side of the fixing plate 4004, a screw 4010 mounted on one end of the motor 4009, a movable plate 4011 mounted on the screw 4010, and a plurality of shell-breaking heads 4012 mounted on one side of the movable plate 4011.

[0034] In addition, a plurality of placement slots 4001 are provided on one side of the second fixing member 40, and a plurality of through holes 4002 are provided on one side of the second fixing member 40. The plurality of placement slots 4001 are connected to the plurality of through holes 4002 respectively. The through holes 4002 facilitate the outflow of egg white and yolk, while allowing the eggshell to remain in the placement slots 4001. The number of placement slots 4001 is equal to the number of egg yolk separators 3005, and the plurality of placement slots 4001 and the plurality of egg yolk separators 3005 are located on the same vertical line.

[0035] It should be noted that a plurality of limiting members 4005 are provided on one side of the fixing plate 4004. The limiting members 4005 can fix the eggs in the placement slots 4001. A circular hole 4006 is provided on one side of the limiting member 4005 to facilitate the shell-breaking head 4012 to move into the placement slots 4001 to crack the eggs. The number of limiting members 4005 is equal to the number of placement slots 4001, and the plurality of limiting members 4005 are located on the same vertical line as the plurality of placement slots 4001.

[0036] Understandably, the fixed plate 4004 has multiple arc-shaped plates 4007 on its side, and a limiting groove 4008 is provided on one side of the arc-shaped plate 4007. The movable plate 4011 has multiple limiting blocks 4013 on its side. The number of arc-shaped plates 4007 is equal to the number of limiting blocks 4013. The limiting blocks 4013 are slidably connected to the limiting grooves 4008. The screw 4010 is threadedly connected to the movable plate 4011. The limiting blocks 4013 slide up and down in the limiting grooves 4008, which can prevent the movable plate 4011 from rotating together with the screw 4010.

[0037] Specifically, the working principle of this automatic egg-breaking and separating device is as follows:

[0038] In use, the egg is placed in the placement slot 4001. Then, the electric push rod 4003 drives the fixing plate 4004 to move downward. During the downward movement of the fixing plate 4004, the limiting part 4005 covers the top of the egg and fixes it in the placement slot 4001. Then, the motor 4009 drives the screw 4010 to rotate. During the rotation of the screw 4010, the movable plate 4011 moves downward and breaks the eggshell through the shell-breaking head 4012. Subsequently, the egg white and yolk fall into the yolk collection part 3002, while the egg white flows through the filter hole 3006 into the egg white collection part 30. The yolk remains in the yolk separator 3005. This achieves simultaneous separation of egg white and yolk while the egg is being broken, avoiding subsequent secondary operations, reducing time costs, and making it more convenient to use.

[0039] It should be noted that the specific model and specifications of motor 4009 and electric actuator 4003 need to be selected and determined according to the actual specifications of the device. The specific selection calculation method adopts the existing technology in this field, so it will not be described in detail.

[0040] The power supply and operating principle of the motor 4009 and the electric actuator 4003 are clear to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

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.

[0042] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," "third," and "fourth" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first," "second," "third," or "fourth" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.
