Then, the electric push rod 201 controls the extrusion pushing plate 202 to extrude the ginger and garlic in the first chamber 1A towards the slicing blade 4 or the shredding blade 5 to achieve slicing or shredding of the ginger and garlic. After slicing or shredding, the ginger and garlic enter the respective second chambers 1B and are then collected through the respective discharge ports 104.

[0044] The rotary dicing mechanism 3 includes a rotary motor 301 and multiple dicing blades 302 fixedly connected to the end of the rotating shaft of the rotary motor 301. The dicing blades 302 are disposed in the second chamber 1B. That is, when ginger and garlic need to be diced, a shredding blade 5 needs to be installed at the blade mounting groove 102. Then, the dicing blades 302 of the rotary dicing mechanism 3 are positioned close to the shredding blade 5. During the process of the squeezing and pushing mechanism 2 pushing the ginger and garlic, the rotary motor 301 is controlled to rotate. The ginger and garlic shreds after passing through the shredding blade 5 will be processed into ginger and garlic cubes under the rotational cutting action of the dicing blades 302, and then collected through each discharge port 104.

[0045] Therefore, the automatic ginger and garlic cutting machine of this utility model, by setting a first cutting device 100 and a second cutting device 200 for cutting ginger and garlic respectively, can process ginger and garlic simultaneously with the same equipment; it can also slice, shred or dice ginger and garlic according to actual needs, which is convenient to use, saves time and effort, and can meet different processing needs of ginger and garlic with one machine, which is multi-purpose, not only improving the processing efficiency of ginger and garlic, but also eliminating the need to purchase multiple machines and reducing the cost of use.

[0046] The automatic ginger and garlic cutting machine of this utility model embodiment is also applicable to the cutting of various bulbous or block-shaped vegetables, and has strong applicability.

[0047] Specifically, the cross-section of the cutting shell consists of an upper rectangle and a lower semicircle. This structure not only facilitates the detachable insertion of slicing blades 4 or shredding blades 5 into the cutting shell 1, but also the extrusion pusher plate 202 is a circular plate. The bottom of the circular plate is adapted to the lower semicircle, which facilitates the extrusion pusher plate 202 to press the ginger and garlic towards the slicing blades 4 or shredding blades 5, ensuring the quality of ginger and garlic cutting.

[0048] Specifically, the two cut housings 1 are connected and fixed together, and the cut housing 1 is mounted and fixed on the support leg 6. The support leg 6 is used to reliably support and fix the cut housing 1.

[0049] Specifically, a collection box 7 is provided at the bottom of each discharge port 104 to collect the ginger and garlic shreds, ginger and garlic slices or ginger and garlic cubes falling from each discharge port 104.

[0050] Furthermore, the automatic ginger and garlic chopper also includes a control panel 8 installed on the outside of the first chopper 100. The control panel 8 is electrically connected to each electric push rod 201 and each rotary motor 301. Through the control panel 8, each electric push rod 201 and each rotary motor 301 can be controlled to realize the automatic chopping function of ginger and garlic.

[0051] Specifically, the rotary motor 301 is mounted on the outside of the cutting housing 1, and the rotating shaft of the rotary motor 301 freely passes through the side wall of the cutting housing 1 so that the end of the rotating shaft extends into the second chamber 1B.

[0052] Furthermore, the automatic ginger and garlic slicing machine also includes linear drive motors 9 installed on the outside of each slicing housing 1. The sliders 901 of each linear drive motor 9 are respectively connected and fixed to each rotary motor 301, and each linear drive motor 9 is electrically connected to the control panel 8. That is, the working state of each linear drive motor 9 can be controlled through the control panel 8 to drive each rotary motor 301 to move left and right, so that the dicing blades 302 move closer to or away from the blade mounting slots 102.

[0053] When ginger and garlic need to be sliced ​​or shredded, the linear drive motor 9 can be pre-controlled to move the rotary motor 301 to the right, thereby moving the dicing blade 302 away from the blade mounting groove 102, ensuring that the sliced ​​or shredded ginger and garlic fall smoothly without being blocked by the dicing blade 302.

[0054] When ginger and garlic need to be diced, the linear drive motor 9 is pre-controlled to move the rotary motor 301 to the left, so that the dicing blade 302 is close to the knife mounting groove 102, and the shredding blade 5 is installed at the knife mounting groove 102. Thus, after the ginger and garlic are shredded by the shredding blade 5, they can be diced by the rotational cutting action of the dicing blade 302.

[0055] The automatic ginger and garlic slicing machine also includes a support base 10 fixedly installed on the outer wall of each slicing housing 1, and each linear drive motor 9 is correspondingly installed on each support base 10, ensuring stable and reliable installation.

[0056] Specifically, the fixed end of the electric push rod 201 is installed on the outer side wall of the cutting housing 1, and the driving end of the electric push rod 201 freely passes through the side wall of the cutting housing 1 and extends into the first chamber 1A, thereby facilitating the control of the extrusion push plate 202 to move left and right.

[0057] Specifically, the slicing blade 4 includes a rectangular first mounting plate 401 and a semi-circular slicing blade assembly 402. The slicing blade assembly 402 is mounted on the lower end of the first mounting plate 401. First clamping plates 403, which are adapted to the blade mounting groove 102, are provided on both the left and right sides of the first mounting plate 401 and on the outer side of the slicing blade assembly 402. The slicing blade assembly 402 consists of multiple parallel longitudinal blades, with the cutting edge of each blade facing the first chamber 1A. This allows the ginger and garlic to be sliced ​​under the pressure and pushing action of the extrusion pusher plate 202. By setting different spacing between the longitudinal blades, sliced ​​ginger and garlic of different thicknesses can be obtained.

[0058] The slicing blade 4 is provided with a first gripping part 404 at the upper end, which facilitates the loading and unloading of the slicing blade 4.

[0059] Specifically, the shredding blade 5 includes a rectangular second mounting plate 501 and a semi-circular shredding blade assembly 502. The shredding blade assembly 502 is mounted on the lower end of the second mounting plate 501. Second clamping plates 503, adapted to the blade mounting groove 102, are provided on both the left and right sides of the second mounting plate 501 and on the outer side of the shredding blade assembly 502. The shredding blade assembly 502 is composed of grid-shaped blades, with the cutting edges of the grid-shaped blades facing the first chamber 1A. This allows the ginger and garlic to be shredded under the pressure of the extrusion pusher plate 202. By setting the grid size of the grid-shaped blades, shredded ginger and garlic of different thicknesses can be obtained.

[0060] The upper end of the shredder 5 is provided with a second gripping part 504 to facilitate the loading and unloading of the shredder 5.

[0061] In addition, a transparent observation window 105 can be provided on the side wall of each cutting shell 1 to facilitate observation of the inside of the first chamber 1A of the cutting shell 1, so that an appropriate amount of ginger and garlic can be loaded into the cutting shell 1 each time it is used, ensuring the cutting effect of ginger and garlic.

[0062] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein.
