Description

[0001] Priority application

[0002] This application claims priority to Chinese Invention Patent Application No. 202311270045.6, filed on September 27, 2023, entitled "A Plant or Pickled Plant Processing Apparatus and Processing Method", the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0003] This utility model relates to the field of processing equipment technology, and in particular to a processing tool assembly for plants or pickled plants. Background Technology

[0004] Vegetables, fruits, medicinal herbs, and other irregularly shaped plants, or pickled plants such as pickled mustard tubers, require different processing methods depending on their product shape, such as slicing, shredding, and shaping. However, since most of these materials have an outer skin, and sometimes even fibrous tissue within it, they usually need to be peeled before slicing, shredding, or shaping. For example, Chinese utility model patent application CN109619606A discloses a ring-shaped pickled mustard tuber peeling device, which loads the pickled mustard tubers into a guide cylinder, positions them using a pressing and positioning block at the top, and uses multiple peeling robotic arms around the guide cylinder to peel the skin. Another example is Chinese utility model patent application CN110522046A, which discloses a pickled mustard tuber peeling device. This device positions the pickled mustard tubers using a positioning pin and grippers, then uses a cutting blade on a production line to longitudinally slice the tubers, and finally uses a peeling assembly to peel the skin off the cut tubers.

[0005] However, with the development of extrusion processing technology, it is now possible to simultaneously perform processes such as peeling and slicing, for example, guillotine cutting and extrusion cutting. Among these, extrusion cutting is widely used due to its high cutting efficiency and ability to cut materials in a single pass. Extrusion processing involves pushing the material to be processed into contact with a cutting blade, causing the blade to cut the material.

[0006] For example, Chinese utility model patent application CN116277182A discloses a fully automated biomaterial processing device with an irregular shape. It uses a receiving tube to load the biomaterial and employs a compression assembly and a side-pressure limiting assembly to fix the material. The compression assembly then presses the material against a cutting tool to complete peeling and cutting. Furthermore, it also proposes a biomaterial processing tool system with an irregular shape (see CN 218965610 U), which uses slots on both longitudinal and transverse blades, allowing the two types of blades to engage through these slots to form a blade assembly.

[0007] However, this type of cutting tool faces the following problems: 1) Both the lower end of the longitudinal blade and the upper end of the transverse blade have slots. Furthermore, to accommodate the transverse blade, the longitudinal blade also needs a matching cutting edge along the transverse blade's extension direction. This compensates for the missing cutting edge of the transverse blade due to the slots, significantly increasing the machining difficulty and cost. 2) The pressure plate is placed on the blade, exposing the gaps between the blades, making them prone to dust accumulation and material jamming. Additionally, notches for mounting the pressure plate must be provided on the blade, increasing the manufacturing difficulty and further increasing costs. 3) Although materials vary in shape, the actual cutting area is circular. The four corners of the existing cutting tool are essentially unused areas, making rectangular blade arrays wasteful of material. By using a decreasing edge blade length, the blade array forms a hexagon with a circular cutting area, saving material and preventing dust from entering through the unused areas.

[0024] A second aspect of this utility model is to provide a plant or pickled plant processing apparatus, comprising: a feeding module, a processing module, a waste separation module and a cleaning module disposed on the movement path of the cutting tool in the processing module, and a control module for controlling the feeding module, the processing module, the waste separation module and the cleaning module, wherein...

[0025] The feeding module includes: a turntable, on which a plurality of material cylinders for holding materials to be processed are evenly distributed along the circumference, and a turntable drive mechanism connected to the control module, the turntable drive mechanism being used to drive the turntable to rotate; in the initial state, at least one of the material cylinders is located at the feeding station.

[0026] The cleaning module includes: an air blowing mechanism that provides high-pressure airflow to the cutting tool moving to the cleaning station, and a spraying mechanism that provides high-pressure water flow to the cutting tool moving to the cleaning station. The air blowing mechanism and the spraying mechanism are respectively connected to the control module.

[0027] The control module is used to control the turntable drive mechanism to drive the turntable to rotate, so that the multiple material cylinders rotate sequentially and periodically or selectively to the loading station and processing station for loading and extrusion processing; and to control the cutting tool in the processing module to reciprocate at the processing station, waste separation station, waste discharge station, finished product discharge station, and cleaning station; and

[0028] When a preset number of processing cycles are completed, the cutting tool is controlled to move to the cleaning station, and the cleaning module is controlled to simultaneously spray high-pressure airflow and high-pressure water flow onto the cutting tool located at the cleaning station; wherein, a processing cycle is defined as the extrusion processing of the material to be processed in the preset number of material cylinders on the turntable and the output of the finished product. The preset number of material cylinders is greater than or equal to three and less than or equal to the total number of material cylinders on the turntable.

[0029] In some embodiments of this invention, six feeding stations are evenly spaced along the circumference of the turntable. Preferably, in the initial state, three of the material cylinders are located at the feeding stations.

[0031] In some embodiments of this utility model, the processing module includes: an extrusion mechanism for extruding the material to be processed in the barrel at a processing station; a cutting tool for cutting the material to be processed under the extrusion action of the extrusion mechanism; and a tool driving mechanism for driving the cutting tool to reciprocate between the processing station, the separation station and waste discharge station of the scraping module, the finished product discharge station, and the cleaning station of the cleaning module; the tool driving mechanism is connected to the control module.

[0032] In some embodiments of this utility model, a limiting mechanism for clamping the material to be processed is provided inside the material cylinder.

[0033] In some embodiments of this utility model, the waste separation module includes: a shovel for separating waste from the finished product that moves to the separation station following the cutting tool, and a scraper for removing the separated waste that moves to the waste discharge station.

[0034] In some embodiments of this utility model, the plant or pickled plant processing device further includes: a discharge module at the discharge station, the discharge module including: a pin mechanism for separating the processed finished product that follows the cutting tool to the discharge station from the cutting tool; and a pin drive mechanism for driving the pin mechanism to move up and down; the pin drive mechanism is connected to the control module.

[0035] In some embodiments of this utility model, the cutting tool includes: a sliding blade holder, a plurality of first blades arranged side by side at equal intervals along a first direction on the sliding blade holder, and a plurality of second blades arranged side by side at equal intervals along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction on the sliding blade holder, wherein the first blades and the second blades are detachably fitted together, and the cutting edge of the first blade is flush with the cutting edge of the second blade.

[0036] In some embodiments of this utility model, the plant or pickled plant processing device further includes a waste transport mechanism disposed below the waste outlet station.

[0037] In some embodiments of this utility model, the plant or pickled plant processing device further includes a finished product transport mechanism disposed below the finished product discharge station.

[0038] In some embodiments of this utility model, the plant or pickled plant processing device further includes: a safety / feeding detection mechanism for detecting whether the material cylinder on the turntable is loaded with material to be processed; and for detecting whether any human limbs are present in a specific area.

[0039] In some embodiments of this utility model, the control module specifically includes:

[0040] The judgment unit is used to determine whether the number of cylinders loaded with materials to be processed on the turntable is greater than or equal to the preset loading quantity, and whether the arrangement of each cylinder loaded with materials is the preset arrangement.

[0041] The tool control unit is used to control the rotation of the turntable when the judgment unit determines that the number of material cylinders loaded with material to be processed on the turntable is greater than or equal to the preset loading quantity, and the arrangement structure of each material cylinder is the preset arrangement structure. This causes each material cylinder of the preset loading quantity to move to the processing station in sequence, and controls the cutting tool to move back and forth between the processing station, the waste separation station, the waste discharge station, and the finished product discharge station along the movement path until the cleaning cycle is reached (i.e., the processing cycle of the preset cycle number is completed). Then, the cutting tool is controlled to move to the cleaning station for cleaning.

[0042] The feeding control unit is used to control the turntable to rotate when the judgment unit determines that the number of cylinders loaded with materials to be processed on the turntable is less than the preset loading quantity, so that the cylinders on the turntable that have not yet been loaded are moved to the feeding station and loaded according to the preset arrangement structure, until the control unit determines that the number of cylinders loaded with materials to be processed is greater than or equal to the preset loading quantity and is in the preset arrangement structure.

[0043] Beneficial Effects: Compared to traditional integrated stainless steel cutting tool structures, this invention employs a bidirectional cross-fitting blade assembly structure, reducing tool manufacturing costs (an integrated cutting tool structure costs approximately 20,000 yuan, while a blade assembly structure made of the same material costs approximately 2,000 yuan, significantly reducing the cost). Furthermore, even if a blade is damaged, the interlocking structure allows for the disassembly of any blade unit, enabling individual replacement of any damaged blade instead of replacing the entire assembly, greatly reducing maintenance costs and improving tool reusability. The two sets of blades in the bidirectional cross-fitting blade assembly structure can be interlocked perpendicularly or at a certain angle, allowing for adjustments to the angle or spacing between the two sets of blades to suit different finished shapes, resulting in cutting cavities of varying shapes and greatly expanding the applicability of the blade assembly structure.

[0044] Furthermore, due to the use of a blade assembly structure, in order to remove foreign objects such as residual ribs between the blades, a waste separation module (e.g., a scraper) is used to separate finished products and waste materials and complete waste discharge. Then, a cleaning module is used to provide high-pressure airflow and high-pressure water flow to clean the blades, thereby removing residues and corrosive components from the blades. In other words, the waste separation module achieves the first cleaning of the cutting blades, and the cleaning module achieves the second cleaning of the cutting blades to remove residues and corrosive components from the cutting blades, greatly improving the service life of the cutting blades.

[0045] In the machining tool assembly of this utility model, a groove is set only on the first blade, and the blade assembly is stabilized by a blade cover, a blade clamping block, and a blade corner clamp assembly. This reduces the gaps between the blades, greatly reducing the difficulty of subsequent cleaning, the machining difficulty of the blades, and saving blade materials, thus significantly reducing the cost of the tool. Furthermore, by adopting a method of decreasing edge blade length, the blade assembly forms a hexagon with a circular cutting area (i.e., the inscribed circle of the square limiting frame). In other words, through the reasonable design of the blade assembly structure, while ensuring the same cutting area, not only are blade materials saved, thereby reducing the cost, but cleaning is also easier. Moreover, by setting the blade corner clamp assembly to fix the blade assembly, it also covers the idle area, preventing the idle area from being exposed to the outside for a long time and causing dust and other contaminants to enter the finished product through the idle area and the material discharge station.

[0046] Secondly, because it uses a combination of high-pressure airflow and high-pressure waterflow, it has a higher cleaning power than high-pressure waterflow alone. Therefore, when processing some low-viscosity materials, it is not necessary to clean them immediately after each processing cycle. Instead, cleaning can be performed after one or two processing cycles (such as processing some viscous materials or materials with very low viscosity), which greatly saves time and cost losses caused by the shutdown of the entire production line due to cleaning the cutting tools.

[0047] Furthermore, a safety and material loading detection system is installed. The corresponding process flow will only proceed when material is detected in the cylinder, avoiding wasted time due to the station running idle when there is no material. Safety detection ensures the safety of personnel operation and equipment operation. Attached Figure Description

For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances. "And / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the listed related items.

[0072] In this article, "plants" refers to materials that require peeling (including stems) and cutting into a specific shape (e.g., strips or slices) during processing, such as irregularly shaped vegetables, fruits, and medicinal herbs. "Pickled plants" refers to pickled materials that require peeling (including stems) and cutting into a specific shape (e.g., strips or slices) during processing, such as irregularly shaped pickled mustard greens. For ease of description, both "plants" and "pickled plants" will be collectively referred to as "materials to be processed" in this article.

[0073] Example 1: See Figure 1- Figure 8 This is a structural diagram and module diagram of a plant or pickled plant processing device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, the plant or pickled plant processing device includes: a feeding module 1, a processing module 2, a waste separation module 3 and a cleaning module 4 disposed on the movement path of the cutting tool 21 in the processing module 2, and a control module 5 for controlling the feeding module 1, the processing module 2, the waste separation module 3 and the cleaning module 4.

[0074] In some embodiments, the feeding module 1 includes: a turntable 11 mounted on a frame 100, a plurality of material cylinders 12 for holding materials to be processed (e.g., pickled mustard tubers with a certain degree of stickiness) are evenly spaced along the circumferential direction on the turntable 11, and a turntable drive mechanism 13 connected to the control module 5, the turntable drive mechanism 13 being used to drive the turntable 11 to rotate.

[0075] In some embodiments, at least one material cylinder is located at the loading station in the initial state. Preferably, six material cylinders 12 are evenly distributed circumferentially on the turntable 1, and in the initial state, three material cylinders 12 are located at the loading station.

[0076] In some embodiments, the turntable drive mechanism 13 is a motor, the output shaft of which is connected to the rotating shaft of the turntable 11.

[0077] In some embodiments, the material cylinder 12 is provided with a limiting mechanism for clamping the material to be processed. The limiting mechanism includes clamping blocks 141 evenly spaced along the circumference of the cylinder wall of the material cylinder 12. The clamping blocks 141 are arranged on the cylinder wall of the material cylinder 12 in a manner that allows them to rotate relative to the material cylinder.

[0078] Specifically, the material cylinder 12 has a plurality of mounting holes evenly spaced along its circumference. The top end of the clamping block 141 is rotatably connected to the mounting hole via a rotating shaft. Its clamping end 1411 extends into the material cylinder 12 to clamp the material. An elastic component 142 (e.g., a spring) is connected to the outer protruding limiting part 1412. The other end of the elastic component 142 is fixed to a mounting bracket 143 on the outside of the mounting hole. When the clamping end 1411 is subjected to an external force (e.g., the squeezing action of the material to be processed in the material cylinder), the elastic component 142 provides tension, so that the bottom of the clamping block 141 is always in a clamping state, thereby being able to clamp the material.

[0079] In some embodiments, the processing module 2 includes: an extrusion mechanism 22 for extruding the material to be processed in the processing station's extrusion cylinder 12; a cutting tool 21 for cutting the material to be processed under the extrusion action of the extrusion mechanism 22; a tool slide 24 for providing a motion path; and a tool drive mechanism 23 for driving the cutting tool 21 to reciprocate between the processing station, waste separation station, waste discharge station, finished product discharge station, and cleaning station on the motion path; the tool drive mechanism 23 is connected to the control module 5.

[0080] In some embodiments, the cutting tool 21 includes: a sliding blade holder 211, a plurality of first blades 212 arranged side by side at equal intervals along a first direction (e.g., transverse) on the sliding blade holder 211, and a plurality of second blades 213 arranged side by side at equal intervals along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction (e.g., longitudinal) on the sliding blade holder 211, wherein the first blades 212 and the second blades 213 are detachably fitted together (specifically, a plurality of blade slots 215 are provided at intervals along the length direction of the second blades 213, and the body of the first blades 212 is fitted into the blade slots 215), and the cutting edges 214 of the first blades 2112 and the second blades 213 are flush.

[0081] Specifically, the upper surface of the plurality of second blades 213 is blade-shaped, and a plurality of blade slots 215 are provided at intervals along their length direction (specifically, the blade slots extend vertically downward from the blade). When the plurality of first blades 212 are inserted into the blade slots 215, a plurality of square-shaped cutting cavities 210 are formed between the plurality of first blades 212 and the plurality of second blades 213.

[0082] Of course, in other embodiments, the shape of the cutting cavity formed between the first and second blades can be adapted to the cutting of products of different shapes by adjusting the angle between the first and second directions (e.g., the first and second directions form an acute angle). Furthermore, the spacing between the blades can also be adjusted to accommodate the cutting of even more products of different shapes.

[0083] In some embodiments, the extrusion mechanism 22 includes an electric cylinder 222 mounted on a bracket 100 via a mounting bracket 225. An extrusion component 224 is mounted on the top of the electric cylinder 222. The electric cylinder 222 is driven by a drive motor 221 to drive the extrusion component 224 to reciprocate vertically. Correspondingly, the area below the extrusion component 224 is the processing station. Therefore, when the cutting tool moves to the area below the extrusion component (i.e., moves to the processing station), it can cooperate with the extrusion mechanism to simultaneously complete peeling and cutting.

[0084] In some embodiments, the tool drive mechanism 23 includes: a sliding rail 234 providing a movement path for the cutting tool; a tool slide 232 mounting the cutting tool and driving it to move on the sliding rail 234; and a tool drive motor 231 driving the tool slide 232 to move on the sliding rail. Further, a bellows cover 235 is provided on the sliding rail, the top surface of which is inclined to facilitate drainage. Further, a water tray 233 for collecting water is also provided below the rail.

[0085] In some embodiments, the waste separation module 3 includes: a shovel 31 for separating waste that moves with the cutting tool 21 to the waste separation station (at this time, the waste is connected with the strip-shaped or sheet-shaped finished product), and a scraper 32 for removing the separated waste that moves to the waste discharge station.

[0086] In some embodiments, the scraper 31 is mounted between the processing station and the finished product discharge station via a mounting bracket, with the cutting edge of the scraper 31 facing the direction of movement of the cutting tool 21 toward the cleaning module. Thus, when the cutting tool, carrying waste and finished product, passes through the waste separation station on its way to the cleaning module, the scraper 31 separates the waste and finished product located on the upper surface of the cutting tool. Preferably, the height and tilt angle of the scraper 31 can be adjusted by adjusting the height and tilt angle of the mounting bracket on the frame 100.

[0087] In some embodiments, the scraper 32 is mounted between the waste separation station and the finished product discharge station at the scraper via a mounting bracket, and the scraper station is the waste discharge station. Correspondingly, a waste receiving hopper 101a is provided below the scraper 32 to convey the waste scraped off the cutting tool to the waste transport mechanism 9. Specifically, when the cutting tool 21 moves towards the finished product discharge station, as it passes the waste discharge station, since the waste has already separated from the finished product, the scraper will scrape the waste off the cutting tool and transport it out through the waste receiving hopper 101a into the waste transport mechanism 9.

[0088] In some embodiments, the cleaning module 4 includes: an air blowing mechanism that provides high-pressure airflow to the cutting tool 21 moving to the cleaning station, and a spraying mechanism that provides high-pressure water flow to the cutting tool 21 moving to the cleaning station, wherein the air blowing mechanism and the spraying mechanism are respectively connected to the control module 5.

[0089] In some embodiments, the cleaning module 4 further includes a mounting bracket 43 mounted on the frame, with the air knife 411 of the blowing mechanism 41 and the water nozzle 421 of the spraying mechanism respectively mounted on both sides of the mounting bracket 43, and when the cutting tool 21 moves to the cleaning station, the air knife 411 and the water nozzle 421 are located above the cutting tool 21.

[0090] In some embodiments, the cleaning module 4 further includes: a water tank 45 and a water supply pipe connected to the water tank 45 and the spray mechanism.

[0091] Furthermore, to avoid mutual interference, a partition plate 422 is provided between the water nozzle 421 and the air knife 411. Preferably, the air knife and the water nozzle are integrated into one compartment and separated by a partition plate. Preferably, this cleaning station is also the location for removing and installing cutting tools.

[0092] In some embodiments, the plant or pickled plant processing apparatus further includes: a discharge module 6 disposed at the finished product discharge station, specifically including: a pin array 61 for separating the finished product that follows the cutting tool 21 to the finished product discharge station from the cutting tool 21; and a pin drive mechanism 62 for driving the pin array 61 to move up and down; the pin drive mechanism 62 is connected to the control module 5.

[0093] In some embodiments, each array unit of the ejector pin array 61 matches the shape of the cutting cavity in the cutting tool, so that when the ejector pin drive mechanism 62 drives the ejector pin array to move towards the cutting tool, each array unit on the ejector pin array 61 pushes the finished product out of the cutting tool, thereby achieving automatic material discharge. Of course, the finished product discharge station is located below the ejector pin array, and a finished product receiving cylinder 101b is provided below the finished product discharge station, so that the finished product that has detached from the cutting tool enters the finished product receiving cylinder 101b under the action of gravity, and is guided by the finished product receiving cylinder 101b into the finished product transport mechanism 8.

[0094] In some embodiments, both the waste transport mechanism and the finished product transport mechanism employ conveyor belt drive mechanisms.

[0095] In some embodiments, the ejector drive mechanism employs an adjustable stroke cylinder; each array unit employs a T-shaped ejector pin with a spherical end to prevent material sticking.

[0096] In some embodiments, the plant or pickled plant processing apparatus further includes a safety / feeding detection mechanism 7 for detecting whether the material cylinder 12 on the turntable 11 is loaded with material.

[0097] For example, after the device is initialized, the safety / feeding detection mechanism checks whether all the cylinders on the turntable 11 contain material. When it detects that all the cylinders on the turntable 11 are loaded with material, it triggers the control module 5 to start the processing flow. Alternatively, when it detects that the cylinders of a preset loading number are loaded with material to be processed and arranged in a preset layout, it triggers the control module to start the processing flow.

[0098] In some embodiments, the safety / feeding detection mechanism may employ multiple vision sensors, such as cameras, spaced at intervals along the circumference of the turntable at the feeding / processing station. Alternatively, a corresponding material sensor, such as a pressure sensor, may be installed within each material cylinder.

[0099] In some embodiments, the control module 5 is used to control the turntable drive mechanism 13 to drive the turntable 11 to rotate, so that multiple material cylinders 12 rotate sequentially and periodically to the feeding station and the processing station for feeding and extrusion processing; and to control the cutting tool 21 in the processing module 2 to reciprocate at the processing station, the waste separation station, the waste discharge station, the finished product discharge station, and the cleaning station.

[0100] Preferably, in order to save space and simplify the control algorithm, the movement path of the cutting tool is a linear movement path, and the aforementioned processing station, waste separation station, waste discharge station, finished product discharge station and cleaning station are sequentially arranged on this linear movement path.

[0101] Specifically, whenever the cutting tool 21 returns to the processing station, the turntable 11 is rotated to move the next material cylinder 12 to the processing station; and when a cleaning cycle is reached (i.e., after completing a preset number of processing cycles, such as one or two processing cycles), the cutting tool 21 is moved to the cleaning station, and the cleaning module 4 simultaneously sprays high-pressure airflow and high-pressure water flow onto the cutting tool 21 located at the cleaning station. A processing cycle is defined as the completion of processing of all materials in all the material cylinders on the turntable 11 and the output of the finished product.

[0102] In some embodiments, the control module specifically includes:

[0103] The human-computer interaction module is used by users to set the corresponding cleaning cycle (i.e., the number of preset processing cycles) according to different materials to be processed, as well as preset processing cycle parameters, such as preset loading quantity and the arrangement structure of each material cylinder.

[0104] The judgment unit is used to receive the detection data detected by the safety / feeding detection mechanism and determine whether the number of material cylinders loaded with the material to be processed on the turntable is greater than or equal to the preset loading quantity, and whether the arrangement structure of each material cylinder loaded with the material is the preset arrangement structure.

[0105] The tool control unit is used to control the rotation of the turntable when the judgment unit determines that the number of material cylinders loaded with materials to be processed on the turntable is greater than or equal to the preset loading quantity and the arrangement of each material cylinder is in the preset arrangement structure. This causes each material cylinder of the preset loading quantity to move to the processing station in sequence, and controls the cutting tool to move back and forth between the processing station, the waste separation station, the waste discharge station, and the finished product discharge station along the movement path until the preset cleaning cycle is reached. Then, the cutting tool is controlled to move to the cleaning station for cleaning.

[0106] The feeding control unit is used to control the turntable to rotate when the judgment unit determines that the number of cylinders loaded with materials to be processed on the turntable is less than the preset loading quantity. This causes the cylinders that have not yet been loaded to move to the feeding station and be loaded according to the preset arrangement structure until the control unit determines that the number of cylinders loaded with materials to be processed is greater than or equal to the preset loading quantity and is arranged in the preset arrangement structure.

[0107] In some embodiments, the control module further includes a safety detection unit, used to determine whether there are any human limbs in a specific area based on the detection data detected by the safety / feeding detection mechanism before the feeding control unit or the tool control unit controls the turntable to rotate; if so, stop controlling the turntable to rotate; if there are no human limbs in the specific area, control the turntable to rotate.

[0108] In some embodiments, the aforementioned specific area includes the area where the loading station is located and the area where the processing station is located.

[0109] In some embodiments, the aforementioned tool control unit is specifically used to determine, based on detection data, whether the current barrel at the current processing station is loaded with material to be processed; if it is loaded with material to be processed, the control system controls the cutting tool to move to the processing station and controls the extrusion mechanism to move downwards to cooperate with the cutting tool in extruding the material to be processed; and after the extrusion processing is completed, the control unit controls the cutting tool to pass through the waste separation station and the waste discharge station in sequence to complete the automatic separation and discharge of waste, and then moves to the finished product discharge station; and when the cutting tool moves to the finished product discharge station, the control unit controls the ejector pin array to discharge the finished product; and when the finished product discharge is completed, it determines whether the preset cleaning cycle has been reached. If so, the control unit controls the cutting tool to move to the cleaning station and controls the air blowing mechanism and the spraying mechanism to simultaneously provide high-pressure airflow and high-pressure water flow to the cutting tool to clean the cutting tool; if the cleaning cycle has not been reached, the control unit controls the cutting tool to return to the processing station to process the next material to be processed, and so on until the preset cleaning cycle is reached, and then controls the cutting tool to move to the cleaning station for cleaning.

[0110] Specifically, an initial variable cylinder count is set and assigned an initial value of 0. Each time the extrusion process is completed or the finished product is discharged, the initial variable cylinder count is incremented by one until the value of the initial variable cylinder count is greater than or equal to the product of the preset loading quantity and the preset number of processing cycles. At this point, it is determined that the cleaning cycle has been reached and the count is reset to 0 to start counting again. Otherwise, it is determined that the cleaning cycle has not been reached.

[0111] Example 2: See Figure 9 Based on the above-mentioned plant or pickled plant processing device, this utility model also provides a method for processing plants or pickled plants, which includes the following steps:

[0112] S101, the control module receives the detection data fed back by the safety / feeding detection mechanism, and determines whether the number of material cylinders loaded with the material to be processed on the turntable in the feeding module is greater than or equal to the preset loading quantity, and whether the arrangement structure of each material cylinder loaded with the material is the preset arrangement structure. If so, proceed to step S102; otherwise, proceed to step S103.

[0113] In some embodiments, the user pre-sets the corresponding preset processing cycle parameters (preset loading quantity and preset layout structure) and cleaning cycle on the human-machine interface of the control module according to the working rhythm of the materials to be processed.

[0114] In some embodiments, a processing cycle is defined as the completion of processing, waste separation, waste discharge, and finished product discharge of materials in multiple cylinders on a turntable with a preset loading quantity and a preset arrangement. The preset arrangement includes adjacent or spaced arrangement; the preset loading quantity is greater than or equal to three, and less than or equal to the total number of cylinders on the turntable.

[0115] For example, a turntable has six material cylinders evenly distributed along its axis. For materials with short cleaning cycles (e.g., thorough cleaning is required after processing three cylinders) and a slow processing pace, the user pre-sets a processing cycle parameter on the control module's user interface: three cylinders (i.e., the preset loading quantity), a preset arrangement of spaced cylinders, and a cleaning cycle of once after each processing cycle. See also... Figure 10a As shown, the material cylinders A1, B1, and C1 are arranged at intervals, meaning that there is a gap (i.e., a cylinder without material to be processed) between the cylinders with a preset loading quantity. Because the cycle time is relatively slow, an intermittent arrangement structure is adopted, which makes the processing interval time between materials to be processed and the cleaning cycle interval relatively long, thereby realizing the adjustment of the overall processing cycle time.

[0116] For example, a turntable may have six cylinders evenly distributed along its axial direction. For materials with long cleaning cycles (e.g., thorough cleaning is only required after processing six cylinders) and a relatively tight processing rhythm, a processing cycle of three cylinders (i.e., a preset loading quantity) is pre-set in the control system. The preset arrangement is: adjacent arrangement, see [reference needed]. Figure 10b As shown, material cylinders A2, B2, and C2 are arranged adjacent to each other. Due to the relatively compact cycle time, this adjacent arrangement structure results in shorter processing intervals and cleaning cycle intervals between materials, thus allowing for adjustment of the overall processing cycle time.

[0117] On the other hand, due to the adoption of a rotary feeding structure and the aforementioned pre-arranged layout, there is at least one empty space between the processing station and the nearest feeding station along the rotation direction of the rotary table (e.g., ...). Figure 10a As shown, when the material cylinder C1 moves to the processing station below the extrusion mechanism, it is separated from the nearest loading station F along the rotation direction of the turntable by an empty material cylinder; and as... Figure 10b As shown, when the material cylinder C2 moves to the processing station below the extrusion mechanism, it is separated from the nearest loading station F along the rotation direction of the turntable by an empty material cylinder B (at which time the empty material cylinder A is located at the loading station). This allows the turntable to rotate and load material even when cleaning is in progress. After cleaning is completed, the next processing cycle can be started directly, further saving time and improving work efficiency.

[0118] S102, the control module controls the turntable to rotate, so that each material cylinder with a preset loading quantity moves to the processing station in sequence, and controls the cutting tool to move to the processing station through the tool drive mechanism, thus executing S104.

[0119] In some embodiments, before controlling the cutting tool to move to the machining station, the method further includes the following steps:

[0120] Based on the detection data detected by the safety / inspection agency, the system determines whether the barrel currently located at the processing station is loaded with material to be processed. If it is loaded with material to be processed, the control system controls the cutting tool to move to the processing station. Otherwise, the system controls the turntable to rotate so that the next barrel moves to the processing station and checks again whether the barrel is loaded with material to be processed. This cycle continues until it is determined that the barrel located at the processing station is loaded with material to be processed, at which point the system controls the cutting tool to move to the processing station.

[0121] S103, the control module drives the turntable to rotate through the turntable drive mechanism, so that the unloaded cylinder rotates to the loading station and loads the material according to the preset arrangement structure, thus executing step S101.

[0122] S104, control the extrusion mechanism and the cutting tool to work together to simultaneously peel and cut the material to be processed, and execute step S105.

[0123] In some embodiments, the control module typically receives a feedback signal from the tool drive mechanism indicating that the cutting tool is in place, and then initiates the extrusion mechanism to work in conjunction with the cutting tool. Of course, in other embodiments, the extrusion mechanism and the cutting tool can be activated simultaneously.

[0124] S105, the control module controls the cutting tool to move to the waste separation station through the tool drive mechanism to separate and discharge the waste, and executes step S106.

[0125] In some embodiments, the control module receives a feedback signal from the extrusion mechanism indicating that the processing is complete, and then controls the cutting tool to move to the waste separation station for waste separation.

[0126] S106, the control module controls the ejector pin array to discharge material through the lifting mechanism, and executes step S107.

[0127] In some embodiments, the control module receives a feedback signal from the processing module indicating that the cutting tool is in place at the finished product discharge station, and then controls the ejector pin array to descend for discharge.

[0128] S107, the control module determines whether the preset cleaning cycle has been reached. If yes, proceed to step S108; otherwise, proceed to step S109.

[0129] In some embodiments, an initial variable cylinder count is preset and assigned an initial value of 0. After each extrusion process is completed (e.g., after completing steps S104, S105, or S106), the initial variable cylinder count is incremented by one. Therefore, the product of the initial variable cylinder count N0 and the preset number of processing cycles Q and the preset loading quantity N1 corresponding to each processing cycle is Q × N1. If N0 is greater than or equal to Q × N1, it is determined that the preset number of processing cycles has been completed; otherwise, it is determined that the processing cycle has not been completed. That is, the counting cycle of the initial variable is the same as the cleaning cycle. The cleaning cycle refers to the cleaning of the cutting tool within the preset Q processing cycles, from the first material to be processed until the last material to be processed is discharged as a finished product.

[0130] As mentioned earlier, different materials have different processing cycles and require different cleaning times. For example, some highly viscous materials require three processing cycles to reach the finished product, meaning they need to be cleaned after one processing cycle. Conversely, some very low-viscosity or non-viscous materials require twelve processing cycles to reach the finished product before cleaning is needed. Therefore, the cleaning cycle needs to be set in advance based on the actual needs of different materials during processing (e.g., low-viscosity materials can be cleaned after two or more processing cycles, while highly viscous materials can be cleaned after one processing cycle).

[0131] In other embodiments, it may be determined whether the preset cleaning cycle has been reached after step S102 or step S104 has been completed.

[0132] S108, the control module controls the cutting tool to return to the processing station through the tool drive mechanism, and at the same time controls the turntable to rotate through the turntable drive mechanism, so that the next material cylinder rotates to the processing station, and executes step S104.

[0133] In some embodiments, the control module may receive a feedback signal from the lifting mechanism indicating that the material discharge is complete, and then control the cutting tool to return to the processing station.

[0134] Of course, in some embodiments, when the next material cylinder rotates to the processing station, it is also necessary to first determine whether the material cylinder is loaded with material to be processed. If so, step S104 is executed; otherwise, the turntable is controlled to continue rotating until it is determined that the material cylinder currently located at the processing station is loaded with material, and then step S104 is executed.

[0135] S109, the control module drives the cutting tool from the finished product discharge station to the cleaning station through the tool drive mechanism. When the cutting tool is in position at the cleaning station (e.g., when the positioning signal is received from the tool drive mechanism), the control module controls the air blowing mechanism and the spraying mechanism to simultaneously provide high-pressure airflow and high-pressure water flow to the cutting tool to clean it. After cleaning is completed (e.g., when the control module receives feedback signals from the air blowing mechanism and the spraying mechanism indicating that cleaning is complete), the control module drives the cutting tool to return to the processing station through the tool drive mechanism. At the same time, the control module controls the turntable to rotate through the turntable drive mechanism, so that the next material cylinder rotates to the processing station, i.e., step S101 is executed again.

[0136] In this embodiment, the control module controls the cutting tool to reciprocate between the processing station, the waste separation station, the waste discharge station, and the finished product discharge station in sequence until all the materials to be processed in all the cylinders on the turntable are processed and the finished product is discharged. After each processing cycle is completed, the cutting tool is controlled to move to the cleaning station for high-pressure airflow and high-pressure water flow cleaning. Compared with the production line mode, which cleans after each processing and shuts down the entire production line during cleaning, a lot of idle time is saved.

[0137] Example 3: See Figure 4a This refers to the machining tool assembly of this utility model (i.e., the cutting tool in the above embodiment). Specifically, the machining tool assembly of this embodiment includes:

[0138] The sliding blade holder 211 specifically includes: a base plate 2111 and a side wall 2112 disposed on the base plate 2111. The base plate 2111 is provided with a discharge hole 2113 penetrating the base plate 2111. Preferably, the base is annular, and the side wall extends vertically upward from its outer edge to form an annular wall surrounding the base, and forms a receiving space for mounting the blade assembly with the base.

[0139] Specifically, the blade assembly includes: a plurality of first blades 212 arranged side-by-side at equal intervals on a base plate 2111 along a first direction; and a plurality of second blades 213 arranged side-by-side at equal intervals on the base plate 2111 along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. Each first blade 212 has a plurality of slots 215 spaced apart along its length at its upper end. The second blades 213 are detachably engaged in the slots 215, forming a plurality of cutting cavities 210 between the plurality of first blades 212 and second blades 213. The lengths of the plurality of first blades and the plurality of second blades located at the edges gradually decrease, forming a blade assembly with a hexagonal cross-section. Preferably, there are three blades (first blades or second blades) located at each of the four edges of the blade assembly. The two blades closest to the edge have the same length and are shorter than the length of the other blade, which is shorter than the length of the blade in the non-edge area. See [reference needed]. Figure 4b and Figure 4c ;

[0140] The blade clamping blocks 217 are located at both ends of the second blade 213, and the blade covers 216 are located at both ends of the first blade 212. The blade clamping blocks 217 have multiple mounting slots 219 that mate with the blade head of the second blade 213 on the side wall near the blade assembly, and the blade covers 216 have multiple mounting slots 219 that mate with the blade head of the first blade 212 on the side wall near the blade assembly.

[0141] Four blade corner clamping assemblies are provided on the base plate 2111 to clamp the ends of the first blade 212 and the second blade 213 located at the edge of the blade assembly. The four blade corner clamping assemblies are respectively located at the four corners of the square limiting frame formed by the two blade covers 216 and the two blade clamping blocks 217. (See [reference]). Figure 4a and Figure 4e .

[0142] In some embodiments, see Figure 4b When establishing a coordinate system with the length extension direction of the first blade as the X-axis, the length extension direction of the second blade as the Y-axis, and the height direction of the first or second blade as the X-axis, the Y-axis is the first direction and the X-axis is the second direction.

[0143] In some embodiments, see Figure 4eThe inscribed circle of the aforementioned square limiting frame (side length L1) is coaxial with the discharge hole, and its diameter D1 is less than or equal to the diameter of the discharge hole (the diameter D2 of the base plate is the largest). The inscribed circle of this square limiting frame is actually the actual cutting area of ​​the machining tool. Although the shapes of various materials are irregular, in practical applications, it has been found that only this cutting area actually performs the cutting function. The four corners of the rectangular limiting frame are mostly unused, and long-term idleness may lead to dust accumulation. Therefore, in this embodiment, a hexagonal blade assembly is designed, and the four corners are used to install and fix the blade assembly while simultaneously covering the unused four corner areas, making it more hygienic and easier to clean the tool, and also saving materials. In some embodiments, L1 is 120mm, D1 is 120mm, and D2 is 200mm.

[0144] In some embodiments, see Figure 4b Since the groove for engaging with the second blade is only provided at the upper end of the first blade 212, the height of the second blade 213 is less than the height of the first blade 212. Preferably, its height is the same as the height of the groove on the first blade, so that when the second blade is engaged with the first blade, the cutting edges of the second blade and the first blade are flush. Furthermore, since the height of the second blade is lower than that of the first blade, in order to fix the blade assembly, blade pads 2121 are provided below the cutting heads at both ends of the second blade 213. That is, by placing the blade pads between the base plate and the blade clamping block, and providing a mounting groove on the blade clamping block to engage with the cutting head of the second blade, the second blade is firmly installed directly above the discharge hole (that is, the inner circle of the blade assembly is coaxial with the discharge hole).

[0145] In some embodiments, the height of the blade pad 2121 is greater than or equal to the height difference between the first blade 212 and the second blade 213, such that the upper surface of the blade clamping block 217 located above the blade pad 2121 after installation is flush with the upper surface of the blade cover 216.

[0146] In some embodiments, see Figure 4a The blade clamp assembly includes an upper blade clamp 218a and a lower blade clamp 218b. The upper blade clamp 218a includes a first clamping arm 2181 extending in a first direction and a second clamping arm 2182 extending in a second direction. The bottom of the first clamping arm 2181 is provided with an upper slot 2183 (extending in the first direction) that can mate with the cutting head of the second blade 212 located at the edge. See [reference needed]. Figure 4d The upper surface of the lower blade angle clamp 218b is provided with a lower groove 2184 (extending in the second direction) that extends in the second direction and engages with the first blade 212 located at the edge.

[0147] In some embodiments, the machining tool assembly further includes: a first guide positioning pin 2120a located on the base plate, disposed on both sides of the blade angle clamp assembly, and passing through mounting holes coaxially disposed on the tool clamp block 217 and the tool pad 2121; and a second guide positioning pin 2120b passing through mounting holes disposed on the tool cover 216. See [reference] Figure 4a .

[0148] In some embodiments, the cutting cavity 210 formed between the first blade and the second blade is square. Preferably, the spacing between the plurality of first blades 212 is 5mm-7mm (preferably 6mm), and the spacing between the plurality of second blades 213 is 5mm-7mm (preferably 6mm), that is, forming a square cutting cavity with a side length of 5mm-7mm (preferably 6mm), see [reference]. Figure 4c .

[0149] In some embodiments, the tip height of the plurality of first blades 212 located at the edge is less than the tip height of the remaining (i.e., non-edge) first blades 212.

[0150] In some embodiments, the length L3 of the first blade 212 is greater than the length L4 of the second blade 213. Preferably, the length of the second blade 213 is 130mm-140mm (preferably 136mm); the maximum length of the first blade 212 is 140mm-145mm (preferably 143mm), and the height H1 of the first blade 212 is 10mm-15mm (preferably 13.5mm), and the height H2 of the second blade 213 (i.e., the height of the groove on the first blade) is 6mm-7mm (preferably 6.5mm).

[0151] It should be noted that, in this document, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus.
