Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing machines, and in particular to a fruit and vegetable dicing machine. Background Technology

[0002] A fruit and vegetable dicing machine is used to cut fruits and vegetables into cubes or chunks. Generally speaking, the processing steps for dicing fruits and vegetables are to first cut the ingredients into slices, then cut the slices into strips, and finally cut the strips into cubes.

[0003] While existing fruit and vegetable dicing machines can effectively dice fruits and vegetables, most of them present challenges in cleaning the blades, typically requiring disassembly for cleaning, which is inconvenient. Therefore, we propose an improved fruit and vegetable dicing machine. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a fruit and vegetable dicing machine.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a fruit and vegetable dicing machine, comprising a machine housing, a top plate at the upper end of the machine housing, a feeding hopper fixedly connected to the top plate, guide rails fixedly connected to the lower end face of the top plate near the front and rear positions, a lead screw and a slide rod respectively rotatably and fixedly connected within the two guide rails, sliders sleeved on the outer walls of the lead screw and the slide rod, mounting plates fixedly connected to the lower ends of the two sliders, a horizontal blade rotatably connected between the two mounting plates via a rotating shaft, a vertical blade rotatably mounted on one side of the horizontal blade, the vertical blade rotatably connected to the machine housing via a rotating shaft, and a cleaning ring slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the vertical blade, a scraper fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of the machine housing, a lead screw rotatably connected to the other side of the machine housing, an mounting block threadedly connected to the outer wall of the lead screw rotatably, and the mounting block movably sleeved on the outer end of the cleaning ring.

[0006] Through the above technical solution, the rotation of the lead screw drives the slider to move, thereby controlling the horizontal blade to move to one side. With the help of the scraper, the fruit residue remaining in the gaps between the multiple blades can be scraped and cleaned, thus completing the automatic cleaning of the horizontal blade. The second lead screw drives the installation block to move, thereby moving the cleaning ring relative to the vertical blade to scrape and clean the fruit residue in the gaps between the blades, thus completing the automatic cleaning of the vertical blade.

[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0008] A second motor is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the chassis. The output end of the second motor is fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw. The two sliders are respectively threaded and slidably connected to the outer walls of the lead screw and the slider.

[0009] Through the above technical solution, the second motor drives the first lead screw to rotate, which in turn controls the movement of the slider, which in turn drives the cross blade to move through the mounting plate. The slide bar can limit the other end of the cross blade to ensure its stable movement.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] A motor is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one of the mounting plates, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft of the fixed sleeve cross blade.

[0012] Through the above technical solution, motor one can drive the horizontal blade to rotate and cut fruits and vegetables horizontally.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0014] A motor three is fixedly connected to one side of the rear end of the chassis, and the output end of the motor three is fixedly connected to the rear end of the lead screw two.

[0015] Through the above technical solution, motor three can drive screw two to rotate, thereby controlling the movement of the mounting block, which in turn moves the cleaning ring, making it easier to remove fruit residue from the vertical blade.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0017] The front end of the chassis is fixedly connected to a motor four, and the output end of the motor four is fixedly connected to the front end of the rotating shaft of the fixed sleeve longitudinal blade.

[0018] Through the above technical solution, motor four can drive the vertical blade to rotate and cut fruits and vegetables longitudinally, and cooperate with the horizontal blade to cut horizontally, thus realizing the dicing function.

[0019] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0020] The discharge port of the feeding hopper is located directly above the horizontal and vertical blades, and the lower end of the chassis is designed with an inclined surface structure.

[0021] The above technical solution allows fruits and vegetables to fall directly between the horizontal and vertical blades, while the inclined surface structure facilitates the extraction of fruit pieces.

[0022] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] 1. Compared with existing technologies, this fruit and vegetable dicing machine, through the coordinated structure of guide rail, lead screw, slide bar, slider, mounting plate and scraper, can effectively control the horizontal blade to move to one side by rotating the lead screw, thereby controlling the horizontal blade to move to one side. With the help of the scraper, the fruit residue remaining between the multiple blades can be scraped and cleaned, thus completing the automatic cleaning of the horizontal blade, which is convenient and time-saving.

[0024] 2. Compared with the existing technology, this fruit and vegetable dicing machine, through the coordinated structure of lead screw two, mounting block and cleaning ring, can automatically clean the vertical blade after the vertical blade stops rotating. The lead screw two drives the mounting block to move, thereby moving the cleaning ring relative to the vertical blade to scrape and clean the fruit residue between the blades. This is convenient and saves time. Attached Figure Description

[0032] Reference Figure 1-5This utility model provides a fruit and vegetable dicing machine, comprising a casing 1, a top plate 2 at the upper end of the casing 1, a feeding hopper 3 fixedly connected to the top plate 2, and guide rails 4 fixedly connected to the lower end face of the top plate 2 near the front and rear positions. A lead screw 5 and a sliding rod 6 are rotatably and fixedly connected within the two guide rails 4, respectively. Sliding blocks 7 are sleeved on the outer walls of both the lead screw 5 and the sliding rod 6. The lead screw 5 drives the sliding blocks 7 to move, and the sliding rod 6 cooperates with the sliding blocks 7 to drive the mounting plates 8 to move stably. Mounting plates 8 are fixedly connected to the lower ends of both sliding blocks 7, and the two mounting plates 8 rotate through a pivot. A horizontal blade 9 is connected, and a vertical blade 11 is rotatably mounted on one side of the horizontal blade 9. The vertical blade 11 is rotatably connected to the housing 1 via a rotating shaft, and a cleaning ring 15 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the vertical blade 11. The vertical blade 11 is cleaned by moving the cleaning ring 15. A scraper 12 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of the housing 1. The scraper 12 is cleaned by moving relative to the horizontal blade 9. A lead screw 13 is rotatably connected to the other side of the housing 1. A mounting block 14 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the lead screw 13. The mounting block 14 is movably sleeved on the outer end of the cleaning ring 15, and the cleaning ring 15 can rotate relative to the mounting block 14.

[0033] Through the above technical solution, the rotation of the lead screw 5 drives the slider 7 to move, thereby controlling the horizontal blade 9 to move to one side. In conjunction with the scraper 12, the fruit residue remaining in the gaps between the multiple blades can be scraped and cleaned, thus completing the automatic cleaning of the horizontal blade 9. The lead screw 13 drives the mounting block 14 to move, thereby moving the cleaning ring 15 relative to the vertical blade 11 to scrape and clean the fruit residue in the gaps between the blades, thus completing the automatic cleaning of the vertical blade 11.

[0034] A second motor 16 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the casing 1. The output end of the second motor 16 is fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw 5. Two sliders 7 are threaded and slidably connected to the outer walls of the lead screw 5 and the slide bar 6, respectively. The second motor 16 drives the lead screw 5 to rotate, thereby controlling the movement of the sliders 7, which in turn drives the cross blade 9 to move through the mounting plate 8. The slide bar 6 can limit the other end of the cross blade 9 so that it can move stably.

[0035] One of the mounting plates 8 has a motor 10 fixedly connected to its outer wall. The output end of the motor 10 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft of the fixed sleeve cross blade 9. The motor 10 can drive the cross blade 9 to rotate and cut the fruits and vegetables horizontally.

[0036] Motor 3 17 is fixedly connected to one side of the rear end of the machine box 1. The output end of motor 3 17 is fixedly connected to the rear end of lead screw 2 13. Motor 3 17 can drive lead screw 2 13 to rotate, thereby controlling the movement of mounting block 14, which in turn moves cleaning ring 15, making it convenient to remove fruit residue from vertical blade 11.

[0037] The front end of the chassis 1 is fixedly connected to a motor 4 18. The output end of the motor 4 18 is fixedly connected to the front end of the rotating shaft of the fixed sleeve vertical blade 11. The motor 4 18 can drive the vertical blade 11 to rotate and cut fruits and vegetables vertically, and cooperate with the horizontal blade 9 to cut horizontally, so as to realize the dicing function.

[0038] The discharge port of the feeding hopper 3 is located directly above the horizontal blade 9 and the vertical blade 11. The lower end of the machine box 1 is set with an inclined surface structure, which makes it convenient for fruits and vegetables to fall directly between the horizontal blade 9 and the vertical blade 11. The inclined surface structure also facilitates the discharge of fruit pieces.

[0039] Working principle: When in use, fruits and vegetables are fed into the machine box 1 through the feeding hopper 3. Then, the horizontal blade 9 and the vertical blade 11 are driven to rotate relative to each other by the motor 10 and the motor 4 respectively to dice the fruits and vegetables. When it is necessary to clean the blades later, the motor 2 is started to drive the lead screw 5 to rotate, which in turn drives the slider 7 to move. Then, the horizontal blade 9 is driven to move towards the scraper 12 through the mounting plate 8, so that the convex teeth on the scraper 12 and the annular blades on the horizontal blade 9 are in contact. Then, the motor 10 is started to drive the horizontal blade 9 to rotate, which can remove the fruit residue between the blades. It is convenient and time-saving.

[0040] During the above process, after stopping the rotation of the vertical blade 11, starting the motor 3 17 drives the lead screw 2 13 to rotate, which in turn moves the mounting block 14, thereby moving the cleaning ring 15 on the outer wall of the vertical blade 11 to scrape away the fruit residue between the blades, thus completing the automatic cleaning of the vertical blade 11 without disassembling the blades, reducing the difficulty of cleaning the blades inside the device.

[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only 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.
