[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic feeding type Italian pasta sauce packet ingredient cutter, including a conveyor frame 1 and two drive rollers rotatably connected to the inner wall of the conveyor frame 1. A conveyor belt 12 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the conveyor frame 1 via the drive rollers. A motor 11 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the conveyor frame 1. One end of the drive roller on the inner wall of the conveyor frame 1 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 11. A feeding frame 13 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the conveyor frame 1. A cutting mechanism 2 is provided on the upper surface of the conveyor frame 1. The cutting mechanism 2 includes a gantry frame 21 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the conveyor frame 1. A hydraulic cylinder 22 is fixedly connected to the surface of the gantry frame 21. A pressure plate 2 is fixedly connected to the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 22. 3. A blade frame 24 is snapped into the inner wall of one end of the conveyor frame 1. Several blades 25 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the blade frame 24. A cleaning device 3 is provided at the other end of the conveyor frame 1. The cleaning device 3 includes a support frame 31 fixedly connected to one end of the conveyor frame 1. Three slide rods 32 are slidably connected to the surface of the support frame 31. A pull plate 34 is fixedly connected to one end of the slide rod 32. A liquid storage frame 35 is fixedly connected to the other end of the slide rod 32. A liquid inlet pipe is provided on the upper surface of the liquid storage frame 35. Several evenly distributed spikes 37 are fixedly connected to the surface of the liquid storage frame 35. The spikes 37 have a conical structure. A sponge brush 38 is provided on the surface of the liquid storage frame 35. The spikes 37 and the sponge brush 38 are used in conjunction.

[0026] When the vegetable cutter is working, the motor 11 is started first. The motor 11 drives the conveyor belt 12 to rotate in a cycle through the conveyor roller. At this time, the user puts the vegetables into the feeding box 13. The vegetables fall onto the conveyor belt 12 through the feeding box 13. The conveyor belt 12 delivers the vegetables to the cutting mechanism 2. The vegetables fall into the blade frame 24. At this time, the hydraulic cylinder 22 is started. The hydraulic cylinder 22 drives the pressure plate 23 to press down and cut the vegetables on the blade 25. When the conveyor belt 12 rotates, the sponge brush 38 cleans the conveyor belt 12.

[0027] like Figure 1-5As shown, the liquid storage frame 35 has a hollow structure. Several evenly distributed drainage holes are opened on the surface of the liquid storage frame 35. Cotton strips 39 are fixedly connected inside the drainage holes of the liquid storage frame 35. One end of the cotton strips 39 is located inside the liquid storage frame 35. A spring 33 is sleeved on the arc surface of the slide rod 32. The two ends of the spring 33 are fixedly connected to the support frame 31 and the pull plate 34 respectively. Observation windows 36 are fixedly connected to both sides of the liquid storage frame 35. The observation windows 36 are made of acrylic sheets.

[0028] Food-grade cleaning agent is introduced into the storage box 35 through the inlet. At this time, the food-grade cleaning agent is soaked into the sponge brush 38 through the cotton swab 39. When the conveyor belt 12 rotates, the sponge brush 38 applies the food-grade cleaning agent to the conveyor belt 12 to clean the dirt on the conveyor belt 12. The observation window 36 allows the user to observe the liquid level in the storage box 35 and to add food-grade cleaning agent in a timely manner.

[0029] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a collection device 4 is provided at one end of the conveyor frame 1. The collection device 4 includes a buffer frame 41 fixedly connected to one end of the conveyor frame 1. Two side plates 45 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the buffer frame 41. A fixing plate 47 is fixedly connected to the surface of the side plates 45. A screw 48 is threadedly connected to the surface of the fixing plate 47. A pressure block 49 is rotatably connected to one end of the screw 48. A collection bag 46 is placed on the surface of the two side plates 45. The pressure block 49 works in conjunction with the collection bag 46. A rotating rod 42 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the buffer frame 41. A buffer plate 43 is fixedly connected to the arc surface of the rotating rod 42. The buffer plate 43 is inclined, and two springs 44 are fixedly connected to the side of the buffer plate 43 that is close to the buffer frame 41.

[0030] After the ingredients are cut, they fall into the buffer frame 41. At this time, the rubber buffer plate 43 uses the elasticity of the spring 44 to buffer the impact force when the ingredients fall. The cut ingredients are collected by the collection bag 46. When the collection bag 46 is full, the screw 48 drives the pressure block 49 to rise and fall, which facilitates the removal and fixing of the collection bag 46.

[0031] Working principle: Before the vegetable cutter starts working, the pull plate 34 moves the liquid storage frame 35 on the slide bar 32 away from the conveyor belt 12. The spring 33 extends as the slide bar 32 moves, and the sponge brush 38 is placed against the liquid storage frame 35. At this time, the spike 37 contacts the sponge brush 38 and inserts into the sponge brush 38, completing the fixation of the sponge brush 38 and facilitating the periodic replacement of the sponge brush 38. Then, the pull plate 34 is released, and the liquid storage frame 35 returns to its original position under the tension of the spring 33, causing the sponge brush 38 to be placed against the conveyor belt 12. At this time, food-grade cleaning agent is introduced into the liquid storage frame 35 through the feed port. The cotton strip 39 located in the liquid storage frame 35 is soaked in the food-grade cleaning agent and transfers the food-grade cleaning agent to the sponge brush 38. When the conveyor belt 12 rotates, the sponge brush 38 and the food-grade cleaning agent work together to clean the conveyor belt 12, preventing dirt on the conveyor belt 12 from affecting the hygiene of the food.

[0032] After the ingredients are cut, they fall into the buffer frame 41. At this time, the buffer plate 43, with the help of the elastic force of the second spring 44, buffers the impact force when the ingredients fall, reducing the possibility of the ingredients breaking due to the large impact force when they fall directly into the collection bag 46. After the collection bag 46 is full, the screw 48 is rotated away from the collection bag 46 to remove the collection bag 46. Then, a new collection bag 46 is placed on the two side plates 45, and the screw 48 is rotated to make the screw 48 drive the pressure block 49 to descend and fix the collection bag 46, so that the next collection of ingredients can be carried out.
