Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sweet potato cutting technology, and in particular relates to a sweet potato slicer with adjustable thickness. Background Technology

[0002] A sweet potato slicer is a device specifically designed to slice root vegetables such as sweet potatoes into thin slices. It mainly consists of a hopper, a cutting disc, blades, an electric system, a speed control mechanism, and an automatic contouring system. The working principle of the sweet potato slicer is to cut the sweet potato into uniform thin slices by rotating the cutting disc and blades. The speed control mechanism can control the rotation speed of the blades to adapt to different types of sweet potatoes, while the automatic contouring system ensures that the sweet potato is always kept in the correct position during the slicing process, thus ensuring uniform slice thickness. However, during the cutting process, the user needs to manually feed the sweet potato into the feed inlet, which can easily lead to the blades cutting the user's hands. A structure that can avoid cutting is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a sweet potato slicer with adjustable thickness, thus solving the aforementioned problems.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a thickness-adjustable sweet potato slicer, including a frame and a pushing component for cut protection; the pushing component includes a push plate, a connecting frame, and a guide rod, the push plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting frame, one side of the connecting frame is slidably connected to the guide rod, the guide rod is fixedly connected to the frame, and the other side of the connecting frame is threadedly connected to a lead screw.

[0005] Beneficial effects

[0006] This utility model provides a sweet potato slicer with adjustable thickness, which has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0007] The user places the sweet potato to be cut on the machine frame and starts the motor. The motor drives the lead screw fixed to its output shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting frame threaded onto the lead screw. The connecting frame then begins linear reciprocating motion along its connection with the guide rod. Simultaneously, the push plate fixed to the bottom of the connecting frame begins linear reciprocating motion, pushing the sweet potato on the frame towards the cone at a constant speed. During the sliding of the connecting frame, the connecting plate fixed to it moves synchronously, causing the rack at the bottom of the connecting plate to slide synchronously. When the rack contacts the gear, the gear, in cooperation with the meshing rack, begins to rotate at a constant speed, causing the shaft fixed to its center to rotate synchronously, and thus driving the... The cams fixed to the top rotate synchronously, pushing the sweet potatoes onto them. As multiple cams rotate, the sweet potatoes are fed out, causing smaller ones to fall through the gaps, thus removing those that do not meet the standards. If the sweet potatoes meet the standards, they are pushed into the cone by the push plate. At this time, motor A is started synchronously, causing the connecting rod fixed to the output shaft of motor A to start rotating. This drives the fan blades on the fixed connecting rod to rotate synchronously, so that the sweet potatoes can be cyclically cut by the fan blades as they fall down the inclined surface of the cone. The speed of motor A can be adjusted as needed to adjust the rotation frequency of the fan blades, thereby adjusting the thickness of the sweet potato slices. After the sweet potatoes are cut, the user resets the push plate, and then a second sweet potato can be placed on the frame for cyclic slicing. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0012] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0013] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0014] Please see Figures 1-3 The adjustable thickness sweet potato slicer provided in this embodiment of the utility model includes a frame 101 and further includes:

[0015] Push component 2 is used for cut protection;

[0016] The pushing component 2 includes a push plate 201, a connecting frame 202, and a guide rod 203. The push plate 201 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting frame 202. One side of the connecting frame 202 is slidably connected to the guide rod 203. The guide rod 203 is fixedly connected to the frame 101. The other side of the connecting frame 202 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 204.

[0017] For the above examples, those skilled in the art should know that the implementation of the above technical solutions is not limited to the specific push plate 201 described in the above embodiments. For example, the connection between the push plate 201 and the frame 101 should be provided with a sealing strip. The purpose of this setting is to facilitate filling the gap at the connection with the sealing strip and to prevent the two ends of the sweet potato from getting stuck in it during the process of pushing the sweet potato.

[0018] For the above examples, those skilled in the art should know that the implementation of the above technical solutions is not limited to the specific rack 101 described in the above embodiments. For example, the rack 101 is provided with pads at the bottom. The purpose of this arrangement is to facilitate increasing the height of the rack 101 by increasing the number of pads.

[0019] Specifically, one end of the lead screw 204 is rotatably connected to the frame 101, and the other end of the lead screw 204 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor 205. The motor 205 is fixedly connected to the frame 101.

[0020] For the above examples, those skilled in the art should know that the implementation of the above technical solutions is not limited to the specific motor 205 described in the above embodiments. For example, the motor 205 should be a motor with multiple adjustable speeds. The purpose of this setting is to facilitate the adjustment of the sliding speed of the connecting frame 202 through this setting.

[0021] Specifically, a connecting plate 206 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting frame 202, the connecting plate 206 is fixedly connected to the rack 207, and the rack 207 is meshed with multiple gears 208.

[0022] For the above examples, those skilled in the art should know that the implementation of the above technical solutions is not limited to the specific push plate 201 described in the above embodiments. For example, the push plate 201 can be replaced by a roller, which is rotatably connected to the connecting frame 202. The purpose of this arrangement is to further avoid damage to the sweet potatoes during the pushing process.

[0023] Specifically, a shaft 209 is fixedly connected to the center of each of the multiple gears 208, the shaft 209 is rotatably connected to the frame 101, and a cam 301 is fixedly connected to each of the multiple shafts 209.

[0024] Regarding the above examples, those skilled in the art should know that the implementation of the above technical solutions is not limited to the specific cam 301 described in the above embodiments. For example, the cam 301 is fitted with a rubber sleeve with appropriate damping. The purpose of this setting is to increase the damping when the cam 301 contacts the sweet potato, thereby avoiding the inability to push the sweet potato.

[0025] Specifically, a base plate 302 is fixedly connected to the frame 101, and a cone 306 is fixedly connected to the base plate 302. The cone 306 is provided with an inclined surface at the connection between it and the frame 101, so that the sweet potato can slide into the cone 306.

[0026] Regarding the above examples, those skilled in the art should know that the implementation of the above technical solutions is not limited to the specific cone 306 described in the above embodiments. For example, the cone 306 is provided with a pad with appropriate damping inside. The purpose of this setting is to prevent the sweet potato from being pushed upward when the fan blade 305 rotates, thus making it impossible to cut.

[0027] Specifically, a motor A303 is fixedly connected to the base plate 302, a connecting rod 304 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor A303, and a fan blade 305 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 304.

[0028] For the above examples, those skilled in the art should know that the implementation of the above technical solutions is not limited to the specific fan blade 305 described in the above embodiments. For example, the fan blade 305 can be fixed to the connecting rod 304 by bolts. The purpose of this arrangement is to facilitate the disassembly of the fan blade 305 in this way, thereby adjusting its position, and the axis of the fan blade 305 should be at an appropriate distance from the cone 306.

[0029] In this embodiment of the invention, the user places the sweet potato to be cut on the frame 101 and starts the motor 205. The motor 205 drives the lead screw 204, which is fixedly connected to its output shaft, to rotate. This rotates the connecting frame 202 threaded onto the lead screw 204. The connecting frame 202 then begins to reciprocate linearly along its connection with the guide rod 203. Simultaneously, the push plate 201, fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting frame 202, begins to reciprocate linearly, pushing the sweet potato placed on the frame 101 towards the cone 306 at a constant speed. During the sliding of the connecting frame 202, the connecting plate 206, fixedly connected to it, moves synchronously, causing the rack 207 at the bottom of the fixedly connected connecting plate 206 to slide synchronously. When the rack 207 begins to contact the gear 208, the gear 208, meshing with the rack 207, begins to rotate at a constant speed, driving the fixed connection at its axis... The shaft 209 rotates synchronously, driving the cam 301 fixedly connected to it to rotate synchronously. At this time, the sweet potato is pushed synchronously onto the cam 301, and the sweet potato is pushed out as multiple cams 301 rotate, causing smaller sweet potatoes to fall through the gaps, thereby removing sweet potatoes that do not meet the standards. If the sweet potato meets the standards, it is pushed into the cone 306 by the push plate 201. At this time, the motor A303 is started synchronously, causing the connecting rod 304 fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor A303 to start rotating, and driving the fan blade 305 on the fixedly connected connecting rod 304 to rotate synchronously. Thus, as the sweet potato falls down the inclined surface of the cone 306, the fan blade 305 can perform cyclic cutting of the sweet potato. The speed of the motor A303 can be adjusted as needed, thereby adjusting the rotation frequency of the fan blade 305 and thus adjusting the thickness of the sweet potato slices. After the sweet potato is cut, the user resets the push plate 201, and then the second sweet potato can be placed on the frame 101 for cyclic slicing.

[0030] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0031] The term "fixed connection" as used in this application refers to a connection in which parts or components are fixed without any relative movement. This includes both detachable and non-detachable connections.
