[0024] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0025] 1. Through the design of baffle, cross groove, cross block, cutting blade support, cutting blade, drive motor, threaded rod and collection box, the movement of the drive motor will drive the threaded rod to rotate. At this time, the cross block will move downward inside the cross groove.

In conjunction with the design of the two clamping strips, in the initial state, the two clamping strips will apply a limiting force to the sweet potato. At this time, the sweet potato will roll along the two sets of rolling balls. During use, the equipment can be adjusted according to the required cutting length of the sweet potato, which enhances the applicability of the equipment. Attached Figure Description

[0033] This application provides an adjustable-distance sweet potato cutting device, which effectively solves the problems of insufficient precision in fixing and guiding sweet potatoes during the cutting process in existing equipment. This leads to deviations in the cutting position, making it difficult to achieve equidistant cutting, resulting in sweet potatoes of varying sizes after cutting, affecting subsequent processing and product quality. Furthermore, the poor flatness of the cuts easily causes damage and waste of sweet potatoes. Through the design of a baffle, cross groove, cross block, cutting blade support, cutting blade, drive motor, threaded rod, and collection box, the movement of the drive motor drives the threaded rod to rotate. At this time, the cross block moves downward inside the cross groove, and the cutting blade support and cutting blade move downward with the cross block, thereby completing the cutting of the sweet potato. After cutting, when the cutting blade moves upward, the sweet potato will be pushed against the baffle again, and the next cutting can be repeated. The cut sweet potato slices will fall into the collection box and be collected. This allows the device to achieve equidistant cutting of sweet potatoes during use, improving the flatness of the sweet potato cuts.

[0034] Example

[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the technical solution in this application embodiment effectively solves the technical problems of insufficient precision in fixing and guiding sweet potatoes during the cutting process of existing equipment, which easily leads to deviation in the cutting position, making it difficult to achieve equidistant cutting, resulting in sweet potatoes of different sizes after cutting, affecting subsequent processing and product quality, and poor cut flatness, which easily causes damage and waste of sweet potatoes. The overall idea is as follows: An adjustable distance sweet potato cutting device includes a worktable 11, a fixed frame 12 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the worktable 11, and L-shaped grooves 13 are symmetrically opened on the upper end of the fixed frame 12. Screw assemblies 14 are slidably installed inside the two L-shaped grooves 13. Threaded rings 15 are threadedly installed on the two screw assemblies 14. Baffles 16 are fixedly installed on the upper end of the two screw assemblies 14. A conveying cavity 17 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the fixed frame 12. A push plate 18 is slidably installed inside the conveying cavity 17. Inner grooves 19 are opened on both side walls of the push plate 18.

[0036] Both inner grooves 19 have sliding limit mechanisms installed inside;

[0037] The limiting mechanism includes clamping bars 21, with two clamping bars 21 slidably installed in two inner grooves 19 respectively. Rolling balls 22 are equidistantly installed on the opposite ends of the two clamping bars 21. When the equipment needs to be adjusted, the baffle 16 can be moved. The movement of the baffle 16 will drive the two screw assemblies 14 to move inside the two L-shaped grooves 13, thereby adjusting the contact position of the sweet potato. Then, the two threaded rings 15 can be rotated on the two screw assemblies 14 to fix the position of the baffle 16. With the design of the two clamping bars 21, in the initial state, the two clamping bars 21 will apply a limiting force to the sweet potato. At this time, the sweet potato will roll along the two sets of rolling balls 22. During use, the equipment can be adjusted according to the required cutting length of the sweet potato, which enhances the applicability of the equipment.

[0038] Two sliding columns 23 are symmetrically fixedly installed on opposite ends of the two clamping strips 21. The two sets of sliding columns 23 are slidably installed on the side walls of the conveying cavity 17. A fixing plate 24 is fixedly installed on the end of each set of sliding columns 23 away from the two clamping strips 21. A first spring 25 is fixedly installed on each set of fixing plates 24. The end of each set of first springs 25 away from the two fixing plates 24 is fixedly connected to the conveying cavity 17. A fixing strip 26 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the fixing frame 12. A cross groove 27 is opened inside the fixing strip 26. A cross block 28 is slidably installed inside the cross groove 27. A cutting disc bracket 29 is installed on the side wall of the cross block 28. A cutting disc 31 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the cutting disc bracket 29. A drive motor 32 is fixedly installed on the fixing strip 26. A threaded rod 33 is installed on the output end of the drive motor 32. The threaded rod 33 is threaded inside the cross block 28. A limit post 41 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the push plate 18. The limit post 41 is slidably installed in the conveying cavity 17. A second spring 42 is sleeved on the limit post 41. The two ends of the 42 are fixedly connected to the push plate 18 and the inner wall of the conveying chamber 17, respectively. A collection box 43 is inserted into the side wall of the fixing frame 12. When in use, the limiting post 41 can be pulled outward first. At this time, the limiting post 41 will drive the push plate 18 to move outward. At this time, the second spring 42 will be compressed. Then, the sweet potato can be placed inside the conveying chamber 17. After releasing the limiting post 41, the push plate 18 will push the sweet potato to the right. At this time, the sweet potato will be pressed against the baffle 16. At this time, the drive motor 32 can be started. The lower part will drive the threaded rod 33 to rotate. At this time, the cross block 28 will move downward inside the cross groove 27. The cutting blade support 29 and the cutting blade 31 will move downward with the cross block 28, thereby completing the cutting of the sweet potato. After cutting, when the cutting blade 31 moves upward, the sweet potato will be pushed against the baffle 16 again. The next cutting can be repeated. The cut sweet potato slices will fall into the collection box 43 and be collected. This allows the device to cut the sweet potato at equal intervals during use, improving the flatness of the sweet potato cut.

[0039] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides an adjustable-distance sweet potato cutting device. Through the design of a baffle 16, a cross groove 27, a cross block 28, a cutting blade support 29, a cutting blade 31, a drive motor 32, a threaded rod 33, and a collection box 43, the drive motor 32 moves, causing the threaded rod 33 to rotate. At this time, the cross block 28 moves downwards inside the cross groove 27, and the cutting blade support 29 and the cutting blade 31 move downwards along with the cross block 28, thus completing the cutting of the sweet potato. After cutting, when the cutting blade 31 moves upwards, the sweet potato is pushed against the baffle 16 again, allowing for the next cutting cycle. The cut sweet potato slices fall into the collection box 43 and are collected. This device enables equidistant cutting of sweet potatoes, improving the flatness of the cut surfaces.

[0040] Working principle:

[0041] First, when using the device, pull the limiting post 41 outward. The limiting post 41 will drive the push plate 18 to move outward. At this time, the second spring 42 will be compressed. Then, the sweet potato can be placed inside the conveying chamber 17. After releasing the limiting post 41, the push plate 18 will push the sweet potato to the right. The sweet potato will be pressed against the baffle 16. At this time, the drive motor 32 can be started. The drive motor 32 will drive the threaded rod 33 to rotate. At this time, the cross block 28 will move downward inside the cross groove 27. At this time, the cutting blade support 29 and the cutting blade 31 will move downward with the cross block 28, thus completing the cutting of the sweet potato. After cutting, when the cutting blade 31 moves upward, the sweet potato will be pushed against the baffle 16 again. The next cutting can be repeated. The cut sweet potato slices will fall into the collection box 43 and be collected. This allows the device to cut the sweet potato at equal intervals, improving the flatness of the sweet potato cut.

[0042] The second step involves adjusting the equipment. The baffle 16 can be moved, causing the two screw assemblies 14 to move within the two L-shaped grooves 13, thus adjusting the contact position of the sweet potato. Then, the two threaded rings 15 on the screw assemblies 14 can be rotated to fix the position of the baffle 16. Combined with the design of the two clamping strips 21, in the initial state, the two clamping strips 21 will apply a limiting force to the sweet potato, causing it to roll along the two sets of rolling balls 22. During use, the equipment can be adjusted according to the required cutting length of the sweet potato, enhancing its applicability.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
