Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of poultry clavicle attachment processing technology, specifically a poultry clavicle attachment cutting mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] When processing poultry clavicles (duck / chicken clavicles), the fat and trachea and other attachments need to be removed. The removal of the trachea and fat attachments on the inside of the clavicle is done manually. Specifically, a worker holds the clavicle in one hand and scissors in the other, first cutting off the attachments connecting the two sides of the clavicle to separate them. This process is not only inefficient, but also very unsafe as it is easy to injure the worker's hands. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the technical problems existing in the background art, this utility model provides a avian clavicle attachment cutting mechanism.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A clavicle attachment cutting mechanism for poultry, wherein the clavicle includes cartilage and clavicle bodies on both sides of its anterior portion and a cartilaginous protrusion in the middle of its back. The cutting mechanism includes two support plates arranged with a gap between them, and a cutting assembly rotatably disposed between the two support plates. The cutting assembly includes two parallel and spaced-apart cutting blades, with a material-pulling device between the two cutting blades, which is configured to pry off the cut cartilage attachment between the two clavicle bodies. The cutting assembly is driven by a drive motor.

[0006] When in use, start the drive motor, which drives the cutting assembly to rotate. The clavicle is transported with its two sides of the clavicle body straddling the two support plates. When the clavicle passes over the cutting assembly, two cutting blades cut off the air tubes and greases and other accessories connecting the cartilage and the two front sides of the clavicle body. At the same time, the material pusher removes the cut cartilage and accessories between the two clavicle bodies.

[0007] To improve the structural strength of the material-removing component, it is a multi-segment bent plate structure to effectively remove the cut accessories.

[0008] As described above, a poultry clavicle attachment cutting mechanism has at least two feeding components, which are connected to the drive motor via a cutter holder.

[0009] As a preferred implementation, the material-pushing component includes a mounting plate and a material-pushing plate arranged at an angle to each other. The middle part of the mounting plate is connected to the cutter seat. The line connecting the outer end of the material-pushing plate to the rotation center is located on the side opposite to the rotation direction of the line connecting the outer end of the mounting plate to the rotation center. When the material-pushing plate pushes the cut accessory, the accessory can slide off the outside of the material-pushing plate and the mounting plate. The connection between the middle part of the mounting plate and the cutter seat allows the accessory to slide off the outside of the mounting plate to the underside of the cutter seat without passing through the cutter seat, thereby preventing the accessory from getting tangled on the cutter seat and facilitating the cleaning of the accessory.

[0010] Furthermore, the cutter holder has a columnar structure with a flat surface on its outer ring that connects to the mounting plate, and mounting holes at both ends that can be detachably connected to the cutting blade. This facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the material feeding component. When the material feeding component is worn or damaged, it can be quickly repaired or replaced, reducing equipment downtime and ensuring production continuity.

[0011] Furthermore, the included angle between the two pushers is 135°-180°, and preferably 180°.

[0012] To maintain good material feeding effect, the distance from the outer end of the feeding plate to the root of the cutting blade should not exceed 3mm to reduce attachment residue.

[0013] The two support plates are bent inward on the side opposite to the direction of rotation to form a constricted shape, which can prevent the attachments from splashing and affecting the newly entered clavicle during cutting, and ensure the stability and continuity of the cutting process.

[0014] As described above, in a poultry clavicle attachment cutting mechanism, the upper blade of the cutting blade protrudes from the support plate.

[0015] There is a gap between the material feeder and the cutting blade on the side, and the gap is no more than 1mm, to prevent a lot of accessory debris from accumulating in the gap and reduce the difficulty of cleaning.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model's clavicle attachment cutting mechanism are that, by setting up a cutting component driven by a drive motor to rotate, the clavicle attachments can be automatically cut. When the clavicle passes over the cutting component, two cutting blades can quickly cut off the trachea and grease, etc., which are connected between the cartilage and the clavicle body on both sides of its front. Compared with the method of manually cutting the attachments one by one with hand-held scissors, the processing speed is greatly improved, the processing time is reduced, and the overall production efficiency is significantly improved. In addition, the presence of the material can simultaneously remove the cut attachments, making the entire cutting and cleaning process integrated, further optimizing the production process, and avoiding the impact of additional manual cleaning steps on efficiency.

[0026] Combination Figures 1-3 This embodiment provides a clavicle attachment cutting mechanism for poultry, wherein the clavicle includes cartilage 5 and clavicle bodies 6 on both sides of its anterior portion and cartilaginous protrusions 7 in the middle of the back (e.g., Figure 6 The cutting mechanism includes two support plates 4 spaced apart and a cutting assembly 3 rotatably positioned between the two support plates 4. The cutting assembly 3 includes a cutter holder 31 with cutters 32 and a material-pushing component 33 mounted thereon. The cutter holder 31 is connected to a drive motor 2, which is a servo motor. The two cutters 32 are parallel and spaced apart. The material-pushing component 33 is located between the two cutters 32 and is configured to dislodge the cut cartilage 5 from the attachments between the two clavicle bodies 6.

[0027] The support plate 4 and drive motor 2 of the cutting mechanism are fixed in the working position by the connecting frame 1. When in use, the drive motor 2 is started, and the drive motor 2 drives the cutting assembly 3 to rotate. The clavicle is transported in a state where the clavicle bodies 6 on both sides are straddling the two support plates 4. When the clavicle passes the upper side of the cutting assembly 3, the two cutting blades 32 cut off the air tubes and greases and other accessories connecting the cartilage 5 and the clavicle bodies 6 on both sides in front. At the same time, the material pusher 33 pushes off the accessories between the cut cartilage 5 and the two clavicle bodies 6.

[0028] Combination Figure 4The material-pushing component 33 has a multi-segmented bent plate-like structure to effectively push off the cut accessories. At least two material-pushing components 33 are provided. The included angle between the two material-pushing components 33 is 135°-180°, and preferably 180° (e.g., ...). Figure 5 ).

[0029] Structural connection of the feed piece 33 Figure 5 Specifically, the material-pushing component 33 includes a mounting plate 331 and a material-pushing plate 332 arranged at an angle to each other. The middle part of the mounting plate 331 is connected to the cutter holder 31, and the line connecting the outer end of the material-pushing plate 332 to the center of rotation (e.g., Figure 5 L1) is located on the line connecting the outer end of the mounting plate 331 to the rotation center (e.g., Figure 5 L2 in the middle is on the side opposite to the direction of rotation.

[0030] When the cutting attachment is moved by the material-pulling plate 332, the attachment can slide off the outside of the material-pulling plate 332 and the mounting plate 331. The connection between the middle of the mounting plate 331 and the cutter seat 31 allows the attachment to slide off the outside of the mounting plate 331 to the underside of the cutter seat 31 without passing through the cutter seat 31, thereby preventing the attachment from getting tangled on the cutter seat 31 and facilitating the cleaning of the attachment.

[0031] Combination Figure 2 The distance from the outer end of the feeding plate 332 to the root of the cutting blade 32 does not exceed 3mm, and the gap between the feeding component 33 and the cutting blade 32 on the same side is not greater than 1mm. This ensures a good feeding effect and prevents the accumulation of a lot of accessory debris in the gap, reducing the difficulty of cleaning and enabling the equipment to operate continuously and stably, maintaining high-efficiency feeding performance.

[0032] Combination Figure 5 The cutter holder 31 has a columnar structure with a flat surface on its outer ring that connects to the mounting plate 331. Both ends have mounting holes that can be detachably connected to the cutter 32. This design facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the material feeding component 33. When the material feeding component 33 is worn or damaged, it can be quickly repaired or replaced, reducing equipment downtime and ensuring the continuity of production.

[0033] Combination Figure 3 The upper blade of the cutting blade 32 protrudes from the support plate 4. In the processing of poultry clavicles, the trachea, grease, and other accessories that need to be removed are located on both sides of the clavicle and close to the cartilage 5. The protrusion of the upper blade of the cutting blade 32 from the support plate 4 allows the blade to be more accurately aligned with these accessories. This ensures that the accessories connecting the cartilage 5 and the clavicle body 6 on both sides of its front are accurately cut during cutting, avoiding excessive accessories remaining or accidentally cutting the clavicle body 6 due to inaccurate cutting position. This improves cutting accuracy and ensures product quality.

[0034] Combination Figure 2The two bearing plates 4 are bent inward on the side opposite to the direction of rotation to form a constricted shape, which can prevent the attachments from splashing and affecting the newly entered clavicle during cutting, and ensure the stability and continuity of the cutting process.

[0035] This utility model discloses a fowl clavicle attachment cutting mechanism. By setting up a cutting component 3 driven by a drive motor 2, the mechanism can automatically cut clavicle attachments. When the clavicle passes over the cutting component 3, two cutting blades 32 can quickly cut off the trachea and grease and other attachments connecting the cartilage 5 and the clavicle body 6 on both sides of its front. Compared with the method of manually cutting attachments one by one with hand scissors, this greatly improves the processing speed, reduces processing time, and thus significantly improves the overall production efficiency. In addition, the presence of the material can simultaneously remove the cut attachments, making the entire cutting and cleaning process integrated, further optimizing the production process and avoiding the impact of additional manual cleaning steps on efficiency.
