Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automatic cutting and packaging, specifically a conveying device for cutting and packaging tofu. Background Technology
[0002] Tofu is a delicious and nutritious food that people often eat in their daily lives. In automated production processes, the produced tofu is often cut into blocks, packaged, and sealed for easy transportation and sale.
[0003] In the cutting process, existing technology often uses a cylinder to drive a pusher plate to move the whole plate of tofu in the water until it is delivered to the cutting area. Although this method is simple in structure, if the pusher plate is accidentally hit when it comes into contact with the whole plate of tofu, it will cause the tofu to break, affecting the yield. In addition, this method requires the pushing action to be completed in water, and bacteria can easily grow in the tofu in the water.
