Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of kitchen equipment technology, specifically a dual-head automatic slicer / shredder. Background Technology

[0002] A slicer or shredder is a kitchen tool mainly used to cut ingredients into slices or shreds for easier cooking and consumption. When using a slicer or shredder, you first need to select the appropriate blade according to the ingredients, and you can easily switch between different cutting methods.

[0003] However, existing slicing and shredding machines require manual handling of the rootstocks to push them into the machine, resulting in low efficiency. Furthermore, the material at the end cannot be handled manually, leading to significant losses. While rotary centrifugal shredding and slicing machines are highly efficient, they produce a lot of fragments, failing to meet the material integrity requirements of high-end products. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this application provides a dual-head automatic slicing and shredding machine, which has advantages such as improved efficiency. It solves the problems of existing slicing and shredding machines requiring manual handling of roots and stems to push them into the machine, resulting in low efficiency and significant material loss at the end due to the inability to handle the material. While rotary centrifugal shredding and slicing machines are efficient, they produce a lot of fragments, failing to meet the material integrity requirements of high-end products.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: a dual-head automatic slicing and shredding device, comprising a base and a storage bin, wherein two mirror-distributed sliding grooves are formed through the base, and two mirror-distributed sliding rods are fixedly connected inside each of the two sliding grooves; two mirror-distributed pneumatic push rods are fixedly connected to one side of the base; sliders are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom end of the storage bin, and two mirror-distributed positioning holes are formed inside each of the two sliders; a fixing block is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom end of each of the two sliders; and four positioning rods arranged in a rectangular array are fixedly connected to the upper end of the storage bin.

[0006] The above-described scheme uses a reciprocating motion, mimicking manual cutting, to slice or shred root vegetables such as carrots, radishes, and potatoes. This simulates the manual cutting process, reducing excessive pressure and friction from mechanical cutting, thus preserving the original flavor and texture of the ingredients. Activating the pneumatic cylinder drives the storage bin to reciprocate on a sliding rod, pushing the material into the slicer / shredder for slicing or shredding. Changing the slicing or shredding module allows for different shapes of material. The storage bin is slidably connected to the base via a slider, and the positioning hole inside the slider works with the sliding rod to ensure stability and accuracy during movement, preventing deviation or shaking and guaranteeing the quality of slicing and shredding. The pneumatic pusher, as the power source, features fast response and easy operation. Users can easily move the storage bin in and out and reset it by controlling the switch of the pneumatic pusher, reducing operational difficulty and physical exertion.

[0007] Furthermore, a pressure bar is slidably connected inside the storage bin, a baffle is fixedly connected to the upper end of the pressure bar, a through hole is opened inside the baffle, a handle is fixedly connected to the upper end of the baffle, and multiple anti-slip nails distributed in a rectangular array are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the pressure bar.

[0008] The above design allows users to easily lift or lower the pressure bar using the handle, thus conveniently controlling the compaction of the material in the storage bin. The anti-slip pins at the bottom of the pressure bar increase the friction between the material and the material, effectively preventing the material from sliding or shifting during the cutting process, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the cutting, and making it more suitable for root and tuber materials.

[0009] Furthermore, a mounting groove is provided on one side of the upper end of the base, and four positioning columns arranged in a rectangular array are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the mounting groove. A cutting tool is slidably arranged inside the mounting groove.

[0010] With the above solution, the blade is slidably set inside the mounting groove, and with the fixing effect of the positioning post 16, the installation and removal of the blade becomes simple and quick. This design allows users to easily replace blades of different shapes or sizes, such as slicing blades and shredding blades, according to cutting needs, thereby improving the flexibility and applicability of the equipment.

[0011] Furthermore, four first positioning magnets arranged in a rectangular array are fixedly connected to both sides inside the base.

[0012] Through the above scheme, the first positioning magnets fixedly connected to both sides inside the base are arranged in a rectangular array to provide quick positioning and stable connection for other detachable or sliding components.

[0013] Furthermore, a collection box is provided inside the bottom of the base, and four second positioning magnets arranged in a rectangular array are fixedly connected to both sides of the collection box.

[0014] With the above solution, the collection box inside the bottom of the base can conveniently collect the cut materials, such as slices or shreds. This design avoids the materials from scattering all over the ground, reducing the amount of cleaning work and time. Users can easily pour out the materials by simply taking the collection box out of the base after cutting.

[0015] Furthermore, both sliders are slidably disposed inside the slide groove, and the four slide rods are slidably disposed in pairs inside the positioning holes. The output ends of the two pneumatic push rods are fixedly connected to the fixed block.

[0016] The above scheme, with the sliding mechanism of the slider inside the groove and the sliding mechanism of the slide rod inside the positioning hole, ensures the stability and accuracy of the storage bin during movement. This design prevents the storage bin from shifting or shaking during the cutting process, thus guaranteeing the quality of the slices and shreds. The pneumatic push rod, as the power source, has the characteristics of fast response and easy operation. By connecting the output end of the pneumatic push rod to the fixed block, the storage bin can be easily moved in and out and reset, reducing the difficulty of operation and physical exertion.

[0017] Furthermore, all four positioning rods are slidably disposed inside the through hole.

[0018] The above scheme helps ensure that the pressure bar maintains a straight line during its up-and-down movement, preventing it from tilting or wobbling, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of the cutting.

[0019] Furthermore, each of the first positioning magnets corresponds to a second positioning magnet.

[0020] The above scheme ensures that the correspondence between the first and second positioning magnets allows the collection box to be precisely aligned and securely connected to the base. This magnetic connection not only simplifies the installation process but also improves the accuracy and stability of the connection, preventing the components from becoming loose or shifting during use.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] This dual-head automatic slicer / shredder slices or shreds root vegetables such as carrots, radishes, and potatoes into slices or shreds using a reciprocating motion that mimics manual cutting. This simulates the hand-cutting process, reducing excessive pressure and friction on the food, thus preserving its original flavor and texture. Activating the pneumatic cylinder drives the storage bin to reciprocate on a sliding rod, pushing the material into the slicer / shredder to be cut into slices or shreds. Changing the slicing or shredding module allows for different shapes of material. The storage bin is slidably connected to the base via a slider, and the positioning holes inside the slider cooperate with the sliding rod to ensure stability and accuracy during movement, preventing deviation or shaking and guaranteeing the quality of the slices / shreds. The pneumatic pusher, as the power source, features fast response and simple operation. Users can easily move the storage bin in and out and reset it by controlling the switch of the pneumatic pusher, reducing operational difficulty and physical exertion. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0029] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0030] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3This embodiment of a dual-head automatic slicer / shredder includes a base 1 and a storage bin 5. Two mirror-shaped grooves 2 are formed inside the base 1. Two mirror-shaped sliding rods 3 are fixedly connected inside each groove 2. Two mirror-shaped pneumatic push rods 4 are fixedly connected to one side of the base 1. When the pneumatic cylinder is activated, it drives the storage bin 5 to reciprocate on the sliding rods 3. The material in the storage bin 5 is pushed into the slicer / shredder by the pneumatic cylinder and cut into slices or shreds. Slider 6 is fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the storage bin 5. Two mirror-shaped positioning holes 7 are formed inside each slider 6. A fixing block 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of each slider 6. Four positioning rods 9 arranged in a rectangular array are fixedly connected to the upper end of the storage bin 5. The device slices or shreds root vegetables such as carrots, radishes, and potatoes by mimicking manual reciprocating propulsion. This method simulates the manual cutting process, reducing excessive pressure and friction on the food during mechanical cutting, thus preserving the original flavor and texture of the food.

[0031] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 Inside the storage bin 5, a pressure bar 10 is slidably connected. A baffle 11 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the pressure bar 10, and a through hole 12 is formed inside the baffle 11. A handle 13 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the baffle 11. Multiple anti-slip studs 14 arranged in a rectangular array are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the pressure bar 10. The design of the pressure bar 10 allows users to easily lift or lower it using the handle 13, thus conveniently controlling the compaction degree of the material within the storage bin 5. The anti-slip studs 14 at the bottom of the pressure bar 10 increase the friction between it and the material, effectively preventing the material from sliding or shifting during the cutting process. To ensure the accuracy and stability of cutting, and thus make it more suitable for root and tuber materials, a mounting groove 15 is provided on one side of the upper end of the base 1. Four positioning posts 16 arranged in a rectangular array are fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting groove 15. A blade 17 is slidably arranged inside the mounting groove 15. The blade 17 is slidably arranged inside the mounting groove 15. Combined with the fixing effect of the positioning posts 16, the installation and removal of the blade 17 becomes simple and quick. This design allows users to easily replace blades 17 of different shapes or sizes according to cutting needs, such as slicing blades, shredding blades, etc., thereby improving the flexibility and applicability of the equipment.

[0032] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 4The base 1 has four first positioning magnets 18 arranged in a rectangular array fixedly connected to both sides inside. The first positioning magnets 18 arranged in a rectangular array inside the base 1 provide quick positioning and stable connection for other detachable or sliding components. The bottom of the base 1 has a collection box 19. The collection box 19 has four second positioning magnets 20 arranged in a rectangular array fixedly connected to both sides. The collection box 19 inside the bottom of the base 1 can conveniently collect the cut materials, such as slices or shreds. This design avoids the materials from scattering on the ground and reduces the amount of cleaning work and time. After cutting, the user only needs to take the collection box 19 out of the base 1 to easily pour out the materials.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 Both sliders 6 are slidably disposed inside the groove 2, and the four sliding rods 3 are slidably disposed in pairs inside the positioning holes 7. The output ends of the two pneumatic push rods 4 are fixedly connected to the fixing block 8. The sliding arrangement of the sliders 6 inside the groove 2 and the sliding arrangement of the sliding rods 3 inside the positioning holes 7 together ensure the stability and accuracy of the storage bin 5 during movement. This design prevents the storage bin 5 from shifting or shaking during the cutting process, thereby ensuring the quality of slicing and shredding. The pneumatic push rods 4, as the power source, have the characteristics of fast response and simple operation. By fixing the output end of the pneumatic push rod 4 to the fixing block 8, the storage bin 5 can be easily moved. The entry, exit, and reset of the material reduce the difficulty of operation and physical exertion. The four positioning rods 9 are all slidably set inside the through hole 12. This design helps to ensure that the pressure bar 10 maintains a straight line during up and down movement, preventing it from tilting or shaking, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of cutting. Multiple first positioning magnets 18 correspond to second positioning magnets 20. The correspondence between the first positioning magnets 18 and the second positioning magnets 20 ensures that the collection box 19 can be accurately aligned and firmly connected to the base 1. This magnetic connection not only simplifies the installation process but also improves the accuracy and stability of the connection, preventing the components from loosening or shifting during use.

[0034] In this embodiment, the dual-head automatic slicer / shredder slices or shreds root vegetables such as carrots, radishes, and potatoes into slices or shreds using a reciprocating motion that mimics manual cutting. This simulates the hand-cutting process, reducing excessive pressure and friction on the food during mechanical cutting, thus preserving the original flavor and texture. The pneumatic cylinder is activated, causing the storage bin 5 to reciprocate on the slide rod 3. The material in the storage bin 5 is pushed into the slicer / shredder by the pneumatic cylinder and cut into slices or shreds. The slicer is then replaced. The shredding module can produce materials of different shapes. The storage bin 5 is slidably connected to the slide groove 2 of the base 1 via the slider 6. At the same time, the positioning hole 7 inside the slider 6 cooperates with the slide rod 3 to ensure the stability and accuracy of the storage bin 5 during movement, preventing deviation or shaking, thereby ensuring the quality of slicing and shredding. The pneumatic push rod 4 serves as the power source and features fast response and easy operation. Users can easily realize the entry, exit and reset of the storage bin 5 by controlling the switch of the pneumatic push rod 4, reducing the difficulty of operation and physical consumption.

[0035] It should be noted that the blade is replaceable; it can be replaced with a slicing blade or a shredding blade.

[0036] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:

[0037] First, the user selects the appropriate blade 17 as needed and slides it into the mounting slot 15 of the base 1, ensuring that the blade 17 is firmly supported by the positioning post 16. Next, the user places the root material to be cut into the storage bin 5. Then, the user lifts the pressure bar 10 through the handle 13 to compact the material, ensuring that the material will not slip or shift during the cutting process. The anti-slip nails 14 at the bottom of the pressure bar 10 increase the friction between the material and the blade, improving the cutting stability. The user turns on the switch of the pneumatic push rod 4, and the output end of the pneumatic push rod 4 begins to push the fixing block 8, thereby driving the storage bin 5 to reciprocate under the guidance of the slide groove 2 and the slide rod 3. During the movement of the storage bin 5, the material is gradually pushed into the cutting area of ​​the blade 17 and cut into... The required sheet or filament material is cut and falls into the collection box 19 through the opening below the blade 17, preventing material spillage and waste. After cutting, the user turns off the switch of the pneumatic push rod 4, and the storage bin 5 stops moving. Then, the user removes the collection box 19 from the bottom of the base 1 and pours out the cut material for further processing. Finally, the user can perform simple cleaning and maintenance on the equipment for the next use. If it is necessary to cut materials of different shapes or sizes, the user can easily replace the blade 17 by simply sliding the existing blade 17 out of the mounting slot 15 and then selecting the appropriate new blade 17 and sliding it into place.

[0038] 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 a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.
