Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kimchi production and processing, specifically a kimchi cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] In the kimchi processing industry, slicing kimchi is a crucial and fundamental step. Its purpose is to facilitate subsequent processing steps, such as seasoning, ensuring uniformity of marinating, and standardizing packaging. However, the soft texture of kimchi itself presents a significant challenge to the slicing process. Traditional slicing methods, lacking an effective compression mechanism, are prone to displacement and deformation during the slicing process. This not only makes it difficult to guarantee the accuracy and consistency of the slicing, severely affecting the quality, but also reduces efficiency and increases processing time and costs due to repeated operations.

[0003] On the other hand, existing vegetable cutters have revealed significant shortcomings when applied to vegetable slicing, especially when dealing with special ingredients like kimchi. Vegetable cutters typically rely on high-speed rotating blades for cutting; without appropriate protective devices, chopped vegetable leaves, particularly kimchi pieces, are easily scattered due to the high-speed impact of the blades. This not only creates a messy processing environment requiring frequent cleaning and increasing labor costs, but also leads to material waste and affects the hygiene standards and production efficiency of the entire processing flow. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned shortcomings, this utility model provides a kimchi cutting device. The cutting device uses a cutting cylinder and a feeding cylinder to place kimchi for cutting, which can form a closed space to effectively prevent the fragments from splashing outward during the cutting process and ensure the processing environment. At the same time, a rotating pressure roller is set in the feeding cylinder, which can not only realize the pressing and conveying of kimchi, but also facilitate the cutting of kimchi, ensuring cutting quality and efficiency.

[0005] This utility model is implemented as follows: a kimchi cutting device is provided, including a cutting cylinder, with an inlet cylinder at one end and an outlet cylinder at the lower end of the other end;

[0006] The pressure roller is rotatably installed inside the feeding cylinder to guide and transport the kimchi inside the feeding cylinder to the cutting cylinder;

[0007] The longitudinal slitting mechanism is located on the side of the pressure roller and is vertically adjustable inside the slitting cylinder;

[0008] The transverse slitting mechanism is located inside the slitting cylinder.

[0009] Preferably, the longitudinal cutting mechanism includes a longitudinal cutter and a transmission assembly that drives the longitudinal cutter to move up and down inside the feed cylinder. The installation direction of the longitudinal cutter is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the pickled vegetables, and the top of the longitudinal cutter extends through the top of the feed cylinder to maintain up and down movement.

[0010] Preferably, the transmission assembly comprises a linear telescopic device and a transmission plate, wherein the transmission plate is fixed to the top of the longitudinal cutter, and the linear telescopic device is installed on both sides of the outer end of the slitting cylinder and is connected to the transmission plate.

[0011] Preferably, the transverse slitting mechanism includes a cutter shaft and blades evenly arranged on the cutter shaft. The cutter shaft is rotatably mounted inside the slitting cylinder and extends to the outside of the slitting cylinder at any end. A drive motor is provided at the bottom of the slitting cylinder. The drive shaft of the drive motor and the cutter shaft are connected by a transmission belt. The cutter shaft and the pressure roller are connected by a transmission belt.

[0012] Preferably, the slitting cylinder is in communication with the feeding cylinder, and a guide plate is provided below the inner wall of the slitting cylinder at the communication position. The guide plate is evenly provided with blade grooves for the blades to pass through, and a discharge groove is provided at the bottom of the slitting cylinder to maintain communication with the discharge cylinder.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0014] This slicing device, through its slicing and feeding cylinder design, creates a sealed space during the slicing of kimchi. This innovative structure effectively prevents fragments from scattering outwards during the slicing process, significantly reducing the messiness of the processing environment caused by flying fragments. It eliminates the need for frequent cleaning of the processing area, reducing labor intensity, and also helps maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of the workshop, meeting the stringent requirements of the food processing industry for the production environment.

[0015] Meanwhile, the rotating pressure roller installed inside the feeding cylinder has multiple functions. On the one hand, it can press and convey the kimchi, ensuring that the kimchi smoothly enters the slitting cylinder from the feeding cylinder for slitting, thereby guaranteeing the slitting quality; on the other hand, the rotation of the pressure roller, in conjunction with the slitting operation, makes the conveying and slitting process of the kimchi closely connected, without the need for additional auxiliary operations, greatly improving the slitting efficiency and meeting the processing speed requirements of large-scale production.

[0023] It should be noted that the structures, proportions, sizes, etc. shown in the accompanying drawings are only for the purpose of assisting those skilled in the art in understanding and reading the content disclosed in the specification, and are not intended to limit the conditions under which the present invention can be implemented. Any modifications to the structure, changes in the proportions, or adjustments to the size, without affecting the effects and purposes that the present invention can produce, should still fall within the scope of the technical content disclosed in the present invention.

[0024] As described in the background section, during the kimchi cutting process, because kimchi is relatively soft, it must be manually pressed to facilitate cutting, which is quite troublesome. Furthermore, some vegetable cutting machines, due to the high-speed rotation of the cutting blades during the cutting process, can easily cause chopped vegetable leaves or pieces to fly around randomly if there is no external protective device, affecting the processing environment.

[0025] For the reasons stated above, please refer to the appendix for solutions to these problems. Figure 1 ~Appendix Figure 4 This utility model provides a kimchi cutting device, including a cutting cylinder 1, a feeding cylinder 2 at one end, and a discharging cylinder 3 at the lower end of the other end;

[0026] The pressing roller 8 is rotatably installed inside the feeding cylinder 2 to guide and transport the kimchi inside the feeding cylinder 2 to the cutting cylinder 1;

[0027] The longitudinal slitting mechanism is located on the side of the pressure roller 8 and is installed in the slitting cylinder 1 in a height-adjustable manner;

[0028] A transverse slitting mechanism is installed inside the slitting cylinder 1.

[0029] Preferably, the longitudinal cutting mechanism includes a longitudinal cutter 9 and a transmission assembly that drives the longitudinal cutter 9 to move up and down in the feed cylinder 2. The installation direction of the longitudinal cutter 9 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the pickled vegetables, and the top of the longitudinal cutter 9 passes through the top of the feed cylinder 2 and moves up and down.

[0030] Preferably, the transmission assembly consists of a linear telescopic device 7 and a transmission plate 6. The transmission plate 6 is fixed to the top of the longitudinal cutter 9, and the linear telescopic device 7 is installed on both sides of the outer end of the slitting cylinder 1 and is connected to the transmission plate 6.

[0031] Furthermore, the linear telescopic device 7 can be configured as a cylinder, an electric push rod, a hydraulic cylinder, or any other mechanism capable of reciprocating linear motion. The linear telescopic device 7 drives the longitudinal cutter 9 to reciprocate up and down. When the cutter 9 descends, it contacts the bottom of the feeding cylinder 2, thus cutting the kimchi. When the cutter 9 rises, the kimchi passes through the gap between the cutter 9 and the bottom of the feeding cylinder 2 and moves towards the cutting cylinder 1, thus conveying the kimchi. This enables automated cutting of the kimchi.

[0032] Preferably, the transverse slitting mechanism includes a cutter shaft 10 and blades 11 evenly arranged on the cutter shaft 10. The cutter shaft 10 is rotatably mounted inside the slitting cylinder 1 and extends to the outside of the slitting cylinder 1 at any end. A drive motor 4 is provided at the bottom of the slitting cylinder 1. The drive shaft of the drive motor 4 is connected to the cutter shaft 10 by a transmission belt 5. The cutter shaft 10 is connected to the pressure roller 8 by the transmission belt 5.

[0033] Preferably, the slitting cylinder 1 is connected to the feeding cylinder 2, and a guide plate 12 is provided below the inner wall of the slitting cylinder 1 at the connection position. The guide plate 12 is evenly provided with blade grooves for the blade 11 to pass through, and a discharge groove 13 is provided at the bottom of the slitting cylinder 1 to maintain communication with the discharge cylinder 3.

[0034] Furthermore, the guide plate 12 and the cutting groove on the guide plate 12 are designed to facilitate the passage of the blade 11, thereby cutting the kimchi and preventing the kimchi from being unable to be compressed, which would affect the quality and efficiency of the cutting and ensure that the kimchi cutting is carried out normally.

[0035] The above description is a detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present utility model. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the patent application of the present utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made under the technical spirit of the present utility model should fall within the patent scope covered by the present utility model.
