Detailed Implementation
[0020] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.
[0021] Example 1
[0022] This utility model discloses a method such as Figures 1-3 The food cutting equipment shown is used for cutting high-sugar, sticky, and biscuit-shaped foods such as fruit leather, sticky rice cakes, and cookies. The equipment includes a frame 1, with a conveyor belt drive motor 4, a roller drive motor 8, a transmission mechanism 7, and a clamping mechanism 12 mounted on the side of the frame. Multiple parallel conveyor rollers are mounted above the frame, supporting the continuously moving conveyor belt 2. A first mold roller 5 and a second mold roller are positioned parallel to each other above the conveyor belt. The active conveyor roller 3 is directly connected to the conveyor belt drive motor 4 via a reducer. Two passive conveyor rollers 13 are mounted inside the conveyor belt 2, symmetrically arranged with the two mold rollers about the conveyor belt 2. Each passive conveyor roller 13 is connected to a clamping mechanism 12, which drives the passive conveyor roller 13 to move up and down, causing the conveyor belt 2 to contact or separate from the mold rollers.
[0023] Both the first mold roller 5 and the second mold roller 6 are cylindrical structures. Each set of mold rollers has multiple strip-shaped cutting blades 9 arranged radially around its axis. The cutting edge of each cutting blade 9 is located at the end furthest from the mold roller. Multiple cutting grooves 10 are sequentially arranged on the cutting edge of the cutting blade 9 along the axial direction of the mold roller. Two support rods 14 are installed above the conveyor belt 2. The axial direction of these support rods 14 is parallel to the axial direction of the mold rollers. These support rods 14 are located on the discharge side of the mold rollers. Multiple mold guide bars 11 are arranged along the axial direction of the support rods 14, each mold guide bar corresponding to a cutting groove 10. The cutting grooves 10 and the mold guide bars 11 on the first mold roller 5 and the second mold roller 6 are staggered. That is, the cutting grooves 10 on the two mold rollers are not on the same conveying line. In this way, food that was not cut by the cutting knife (9) at the groove (10) of the previous mold roller can be cut by the cutting knife (9) of the next mold roller.
[0024] The mold guide bar 11 has an arc-shaped structure, and the dimensions of the arc-shaped structure match the outer dimensions of the mold roller. To ensure that the cutting effect of the two mold rollers is the same, the two mold rollers need to be set to the same rotation speed. This setting is achieved by the transmission mechanism 7, which consists of a roller drive motor 8, a reducer, a belt, a pulley, and gears.
[0025] Example 2
[0026] This embodiment discloses a method for cutting food using the above-mentioned food cutting equipment, as detailed below:
[0027] Food is conveyed to the first mold roller 5 via conveyor belt 2. The first mold roller 5 rotates counterclockwise, driving the cutting blades 9 on its surface to cut the food longitudinally. When the food gets stuck and adheres to the area between two adjacent cutting blades 9, as the food moves forward along the conveyor belt, the mold guide 11 is inserted into the cutting groove 10 at the discharge end of the first mold roller 5 to remove the stuck and adhered food. At this time, the area of the food in the cutting groove 10 is not cut, so the food is conveyed forward along the conveyor belt to the second mold roller 6. The second mold roller 6 drives the cutting blades 9 to rotate, cutting the part of the food that was not cut at the cutting groove of the first mold roller, thus achieving a complete longitudinal cut of the food. At the same time, the mold guide 11 at the second mold roller 6 again removes the food adhering to the area between two adjacent cutting blades at the second mold roller 6.
[0028] Example 3
[0029] In this embodiment, the cutting blade 9 is designed as a curved shape extending along the axis of the mold roller, so that it can cut out small pieces of food with a patterned shape.
[0030] Example 4
[0031] In this embodiment, the mold roller can be configured with three, four, or more grooves, thus allowing for the sequential cutting of smaller food pieces. If the grooves on a single mold roller are too densely spaced, sticking can easily occur; therefore, multiple mold rollers are used in combination.
[0032] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
