Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of slicers, and in particular to a slicer for toast bread. Background Technology

[0002] Toast is a common breakfast food, usually made from dough made from basic ingredients such as flour, water, yeast, sugar and salt, which is fermented and then baked. It is characterized by its soft texture, delicate taste, and a slightly browned surface. When toast comes out of the oven, it is a relatively large rectangular piece. To make it easier for people to eat, it needs to be further sliced ​​using a slicer.

[0003] The existing publication number CN219968080U discloses a toast slicer mechanism that can cut multiple slices of toast bread of different thicknesses and with smooth surfaces at one time, thereby meeting people's needs for toast slices with different textures.

[0004] While the existing patent allows for adjustment of the cutter position to cut toast of varying thicknesses, the large number of cutters necessitates tightening the bolts one by one, increasing workload and impacting efficiency. Furthermore, after use, toast crumbs may adhere to the outer surface of the cutters, and excessive crumb residue can reduce blade flatness. Manually cleaning these crumbs not only increases workload but also presents inconvenience due to the small gaps between the cutters. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Therefore, in order to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings, this utility model provides a bread slicer for toast, so as to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a toast bread slicer, comprising a base, a cylinder mounted on the top of the base, and a lifting frame slidably mounted inside the base. The bottom piston rod of the cylinder is connected to the lifting frame. Several blades are provided on the lifting frame. A U-shaped frame connected to the inner side of the base is provided below the lifting frame, and a pressure plate is slidably mounted inside the lifting frame.

[0007] A slider is provided at the top of each of the front and rear ends of the blade, and the slider is slidably connected to the inside of the sliding hole opened in the inner wall of the lifting frame;

[0008] Several limit blocks are installed on the bottom end face of the pressure plate, and an adjusting bolt is rotatably installed on the top of the pressure plate;

[0009] The adjusting bolt is threadedly connected to the top of the lifting frame;

[0010] The limiting block extends tightly into the inside of the limiting groove opened on the tip surface of the blade;

[0011] Several U-shaped frames corresponding to the blades are movably inserted inside the U-shaped frame, and a support frame is provided at the open end of the U-shaped frame, and the U-shaped frame is connected to the support frame through a connector.

[0012] A sponge block is pasted on each of the left and right ends of the inner side of the U-shaped frame, and the two sponge blocks are respectively attached to the left and right end faces of the blade;

[0013] The end of the U-shaped slide away from the U-shaped frame is slidably connected to the support frame.

[0014] Preferably, the limiting block is a rubber block, and the limiting block has a trapezoidal structure that gradually narrows from top to bottom.

[0015] Preferably, the support frame is provided with two connectors, which are located at the left and right ends of the support frame, respectively.

[0016] Preferably, the connector is a wing bolt, which moves through the edge of the front end face of the support frame, and the front end face of the U-shaped frame is provided with a threaded groove that mates with the wing bolt.

[0017] Preferably, the end of the U-shaped slide plate near the support frame is a closed structure, while the end of the U-shaped slide plate near the U-shaped frame is an open structure.

[0018] Preferably, the sponge block is parallel to the outer surface of the blade, and the length of the sponge block is the same as the length of the blade.

[0019] Preferably, the inner rear end face of the U-shaped frame is provided with a strip slot corresponding to the U-shaped slide plate. When the support frame is in contact with the U-shaped frame, the rear end of the U-shaped slide plate extends into the strip slot.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0021] This invention features a pressure plate that drives a slider to move horizontally, adjusting the spacing between the blades to cut toast bread of varying thicknesses. An adjusting bolt moves the pressure plate downwards, causing a limiting block to move into its corresponding groove. This simultaneously fixes the blades in place, eliminating the need to fix each blade individually and improving efficiency. Furthermore, the friction between the blades and a sponge block during the blade's movement removes residual toast crumbs, preventing them from affecting the blades' performance and reducing manual cleaning.

Detailed Implementation

[0028] To further explain the technical solution of this utility model, a detailed description is provided below through specific embodiments.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a bread slicer for toast, including a base 1, a cylinder 2 locked and fixed to the top of the base 1, and a lifting frame 3 slidably installed in the base 1. The piston rod at the bottom of the cylinder 2 is connected to the lifting frame 3 so that the lifting frame 3 can slide up and down along the inner side of the base 1 under the action of the cylinder 2. Several blades 4 are provided on the lifting frame 3, and the bread slices are processed by the cooperation of each blade 4.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in this embodiment, a U-shaped frame 11 is provided below the lifting frame 3 and locked and fixed to the inner side of the base 1, and a pressure plate 7 that can slide up and down along the inner side of the lifting frame 3 is provided inside the lifting frame 3.

[0031] A slider 5 is locked and fixed at the top of each of the front and rear ends of the blade 4. The slider 5 is slidably connected to the inner side of the sliding hole 6 opened in the inner wall of the lifting frame 3. The slider 5 can move horizontally left and right along the inner wall of the sliding hole 6, so that the slider 5 drives the blade 4 to move left and right to adjust the spacing of each blade 4.

[0032] Several limiting blocks 9 are installed on the bottom end face of the pressure plate 7, and an adjusting bolt 8 is rotatably installed on the top of the pressure plate 7;

[0033] The adjusting bolt 8 is threaded to the top of the lifting frame 3, which makes it easy to rotate the adjusting bolt 8 to drive the pressure plate 7 to move vertically up and down inside the lifting frame 3;

[0034] The limiting block 9 extends tightly into the inner side of the limiting groove 10 opened on the top surface of the blade 4, so as to fix the position of the blade 4 by cooperating with the limiting groove 10 through the limiting block 9.

[0035] Several U-shaped frames 11 corresponding one-to-one with the blade 4 are movably inserted inside the U-shaped frame 11, and a support frame 14 is provided at the open end of the U-shaped frame 11, and the U-shaped frame 11 is connected to the support frame 14 through a connector.

[0036] A sponge block 13 is attached to each of the left and right ends of the inner side of the U-shaped frame 11. The two sponge blocks 13 are attached to the left and right end faces of the blade 4 respectively, and the bread crumbs on the blade 4 are scraped off by the sponge blocks 13.

[0037] The front end of the U-shaped slide plate 12 is slidably connected to the support frame 14, and the U-shaped slide plate 12 can move horizontally left and right along the support frame 14;

[0038] The support frame 14 is provided with two connectors, which are located at the left and right ends of the support frame 14 respectively, so as to facilitate the stable connection between the support frame 14 and the U-shaped frame 11 through the connectors.

[0039] The front end of the U-shaped slide plate 12 is a closed structure, while the rear end is an open structure, which makes it easy to pull the support frame 14 to move the U-shaped slide plate 12 forward and separate it from the blade 4.

[0040] Among them, the sponge block 13 is parallel to the outer surface of the blade 4, and the length of the sponge block 13 is the same as the length of the blade 4, so that the sponge block 13 can stably scrape off the residual debris on the blade 4.

[0041] In this embodiment, the limiting block 9 is a rubber block, and the limiting block 9 has a trapezoidal structure that gradually narrows from top to bottom, which makes it easy for the limiting block 9 to enter the limiting groove 10 stably. Furthermore, since the limiting block 9 is made of elastic rubber material, even if some of the limiting blocks 9 are not aligned with the limiting groove 10, the limiting blocks 9 are unlikely to be damaged by pressure.

[0042] In this embodiment, the connecting component is a wing bolt 15. The wing bolt 15 moves through the edge of the front end face of the support frame 14, and the front end face of the U-shaped frame 11 is provided with a threaded groove 16 that mates with the wing bolt 15, so that the position of the support frame 14 can be fixed by the wing bolt 15 mates with the threaded groove 16.

[0043] In this embodiment, the inner rear end face of the U-shaped frame 11 is provided with a strip slot 17 corresponding to the U-shaped slide plate 12. When the support frame 14 is in contact with the U-shaped frame 11, the rear end of the U-shaped slide plate 12 extends into the strip slot 17, which facilitates the provision of auxiliary support for the U-shaped slide plate 12 through the strip slot 17, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the U-shaped slide plate 12.

[0044] Specifically, the spacing between each blade 4 is adjusted according to the thickness of the toast slices to be cut. By turning the adjusting bolt 8, the pressure plate 7 is moved upward. The pressure plate 7 moves the limiting block 9 upward and separates it from the limiting groove 10. Then, the blade 4 is pulled to move the slider 5 in the sliding hole 6. When the blade 4 moves, it pulls the U-shaped sliding plate 12 to move horizontally in the U-shaped frame 11, thereby adjusting the spacing between each blade 4.

[0045] After adjusting the spacing of each blade 4, the pressure plate 7 moves downward by rotating the adjusting bolt 8 in the opposite direction. The pressure plate 7 moves the limiting block 9 downward into the corresponding limiting groove 10. The limiting block 9, together with the limiting groove 10, fixes the position of the blade 4. The wing bolt 15 is tightened to fix the support frame 14 on the U-shaped frame 11. The support frame 14, under the action of the wing bolt 15, moves the U-shaped slide plate 12 slightly backward, so that the U-shaped slide plate 12 is pressed tightly into the strip slot 17, thereby fixing the position of the U-shaped slide plate 12.

[0046] Next, place the toast bread that needs to be sliced ​​on the inner bottom of the machine base 1. Control cylinder 2 drives the lifting frame 3 to move downward. The lifting frame 3 drives the blade 4 to move downward to slice the toast bread. When the blade 4 moves up and down to slice the toast bread, it rubs against the sponge block 13. The sponge block 13 scrapes off the toast bread crumbs remaining on the side surface of the blade 4, thereby reducing the amount of work required to clean up the toast bread crumbs.

[0047] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. 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.
