Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fish processing technology, and in particular to a fish viscera dehydration and packaging device. Background Technology

[0002] Tilapia is a chordate belonging to the genus Tilapia in the family Cryopteridae of the order Perciformes. Tilapia is known as "white-fleshed salmon" due to its strong adaptability, rapid growth, tender and delicious flesh, and high protein content, as well as its abundance of various essential amino acids, particularly glutamic acid and glycine.

[0003] The main purpose of tilapia processing is to increase product added value, extend shelf life, and meet the needs of different consumers. Processing steps typically include catching, sorting, bleeding, scaling and eviscerating, slicing or dicing, skinning, trimming, freezing, and packaging. These steps aim to ensure the safety and taste of the tilapia product, while also facilitating storage and transportation.

[0004] In existing technologies, tilapia viscera are often discarded directly during tilapia processing. However, tilapia viscera are rich in nutrients and can be used as feed for carnivorous animals such as catfish. Fish viscera generally contain a lot of water and juice, which is not conducive to transportation and can easily lead to rot, reducing their nutritional and economic value and hindering their recycling.

[0022] To better understand the technical content of this utility model, a specific embodiment is provided below, and the utility model will be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0023] See Figures 1 to 3This utility model provides a fish viscera dehydration and packaging device, including a box body 1, a discharge port 21, and a controller 20. The discharge port 21 is located on one side of the box body 1, and a feed pipe 4 is located on the other side of the box body 1. The feed pipe 4 passes through the box body 1 and extends into the box body 1. A lifting mechanism is located at the top of the box body 1, and a flipping mechanism is connected to the bottom of the lifting mechanism. The flipping mechanism drives an outer cylinder 10. A first motor 27 is located at the bottom of the outer cylinder 10. The output shaft of the first motor 27 passes through the outer cylinder 10 and drives a rotating drum 24. Both the rotating drum 24 and the outer cylinder 10 have their openings facing upwards. The outer wall of the rotating drum 24 is provided with a screen hole 25, the bottom of the outer cylinder 10 is provided with a drainage hole 26, the bottom of the box body 1 is provided with a partition 13, the partition 13 divides the inside of the box body 1 into a cavity 29 and a cavity 30, the bottom of the cavity 30 is provided with a conveyor belt 16, one end of the conveyor belt 16 is located in the discharge port 21, and a packaging box 22 is provided below the discharge port 21. The controller 20 is located on the top surface of the box body 1 and is electrically connected to the lifting mechanism, the flipping mechanism, the first motor 27 and the conveyor belt 16. The controller 20 adopts an STM32-L0 low-power microprocessor.

[0024] When the fish viscera dehydration and packaging device is working, the moving mechanism is first activated, which moves the outer cylinder 10 to below the feed pipe 4. Then, the fish viscera containing water are discharged from the feed pipe 4 into the rotating drum 24. The moving mechanism is then activated again, which moves the rotating drum 24 into the first cavity 29. The first motor 27 is activated, which rotates the rotating drum 24. Under the action of centrifugal force, the water in the fish viscera is thrown out through the screen holes 25. The thrown-out water flows out through the drain holes 26 and falls to the bottom of the first cavity 29, completing the centrifugal dehydration of the fish viscera. Then, the moving mechanism is activated to lift the outer cylinder 10 and move it into the second cavity 30. Then, the flipping mechanism is activated, which reverses the outer cylinder 10, so that the opening of the rotating drum 24 faces downward. The dehydrated fish viscera are discharged to the top of the conveyor belt 16. The conveyor belt 16 is then activated to transport the dehydrated fish viscera to the discharge port 21. The fish viscera fall from the discharge port 21 into the packaging box 22 below for packaging. This device can collect the separated wastewater, which is beneficial for wastewater treatment and avoids environmental pollution. At the same time, it transports the fish viscera into the packaging box 22 for packaging. The weight of the dehydrated fish viscera is reduced, which is beneficial for transportation and also increases the shelf life of the fish viscera, preventing premature decay and facilitating the recycling of fish viscera.

[0025] Preferably, it also includes a moving mechanism, which includes a lead screw 23, a second motor 5, a moving block 6, and an electric push rod 7. The lead screw 23 is rotatably mounted on the top of the housing 1, with one end rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing 1, and the other end passing through the housing 1 and driving the second motor 5. The second motor 5 is a stepper motor that can precisely control the rotation angle. The second motor 5 is located on the side of the housing 1. The moving block 6 is mounted on the lead screw 23, and the electric push rod 7 is located on the bottom surface of the moving block 6, with its telescopic end connected to the flipping mechanism.

[0026] The function of the moving mechanism is to drive the outer cylinder 10 and the tilting mechanism to move between cavity 29 and cavity 30 to complete the feeding and dewatering operations. When feeding, the second motor 5 is started, and its rotation drives the lead screw 23 to rotate. The moving block 6 is screwed to the lead screw 23 and moves on it. This movement of the moving block 6 drives the electric push rod 7 to move, thereby moving the tilting mechanism and the outer cylinder 10 below the feed pipe 4 to complete the feeding operation. When dewatering, the electric push rod 7 is started, and its extension end extends, causing the tilting mechanism and the outer cylinder 10 to descend into cavity 29 to complete the dewatering operation.

[0027] Preferably, the flipping mechanism includes a U-shaped frame 8, a third motor 9, and a rotating shaft 28. The top of the U-shaped frame 8 is connected to the telescopic end of the electric push rod 7. The outer cylinder 10 is rotatably connected to both ends of the U-shaped frame 8 via the rotating shaft 28. One side of the rotating shaft 28 passes through the U-shaped frame 8 and is driven to the output shaft of the third motor 9. The third motor 9 is a stepper motor that can precisely control the rotation angle.

[0028] The flipping mechanism is used to flip the outer cylinder 10 to discharge the fish viscera from the rotating drum 24. After the fish viscera dehydration operation is completed, the electric push rod 7 is activated. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 7 shortens, driving the flipping mechanism and the outer cylinder 10 to rise. Then, the moving mechanism is activated to move the outer cylinder 10 into the cavity 30 and above the conveyor belt 16. Then, the third motor 9 is activated. The rotation of the third motor 9 drives the rotating shaft 28 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft 28 drives the outer cylinder 10 to rotate around the rotating shaft 28, causing the outer cylinder 10 to flip 180°, discharging the fish viscera from the rotating drum 24 and dropping it onto the top surface of the conveyor belt 16.

[0029] Preferably, it also includes an inclined portion 14, which is disposed on the side of the partition 13 and located above the conveyor belt 16.

[0030] When the flipping mechanism flips the outer cylinder 10, the fish viscera inside the rotating cylinder 24 are discharged from the rotating cylinder 24. When falling, they are blocked by the inclined part 14, which can prevent the fish viscera from falling into the gap between the conveyor belt 16 and the partition 13, making them difficult to clean.

[0031] Preferably, it also includes a drying mechanism, which includes a fan 17, an air duct 18 and an air hood. The fan 17 is located on the side of the housing 1. One end of the air duct 18 is connected to the fan 17, and the other end passes through the housing 1 and communicates with the top of the air hood. The opening of the air hood faces vertically toward the top of the conveyor belt 16. The fan 17 is electrically connected to the controller 20.

[0032] The air-drying mechanism is used to air-dry the dehydrated fish viscera, further reducing their moisture content. As the fish viscera move on the conveyor belt 16, when they reach the area below the air hood, the controller 20 activates the fan 17. The fan 17 forces outside air through the duct 18 and out of the air hood opening. The airflow acts on the fish viscera, further drying them, which helps reduce weight and facilitates subsequent packaging.

[0033] Preferably, it also includes a feed hopper 2, the bottom of which is connected to the feed pipe 4, and a feed valve 3 is provided at the bottom of the feed hopper 2.

[0034] The feed hopper 2 is conical and has a certain volume, which can hold a certain volume of fish viscera. Adding water to the feed hopper 2 can flush the fish viscera into the rotating drum 24 through the feed pipe 4. The feeding operation and the amount of feed are controlled by opening and closing the feed valve 3.

[0035] Preferably, it also includes a drain pipe 11, which is located at the bottom of the box 1, and a drain valve 12 is provided on the drain pipe 11.

[0036] When the fish viscera dehydration and packaging device is working, the wastewater is stored in the cavity 29. When it reaches a certain capacity, the drain valve 12 is opened to discharge the wastewater, which is beneficial for subsequent wastewater treatment.

[0037] Preferably, it also includes a support leg 15, which is located at the bottom of the housing 1.

[0038] The support leg 15 serves to support the entire device, allowing the box 1 to be placed stably on the ground. The support leg 15 also provides a certain height for the discharge port 21, which is beneficial for discharge and packaging operations.

[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
