Detailed Implementation

[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 of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0025] Example 1:

[0026] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a multi-station automatic rotary slicing machine for slicing meat rolls includes a frame 1, a slicing table 2 mounted on the frame, a rotating shaft 3 rotatably mounted on the slicing table 2, and multiple storage boxes 4 evenly distributed around the rotating shaft. The storage boxes have openings at the top and bottom and are used to hold meat products inside. A feeding port 5 is installed on the slicing table directly below the storage boxes, and a rotary slicing blade 6 is installed at an angle at the feeding port. A discharge hopper 7 is installed on the frame corresponding to the feeding port, and a receiving table 8 is connected to the discharge hopper. A pressing mechanism is installed on the slicing table directly above the storage boxes, and the pressing mechanism includes a pressing block that can extend and retract into the storage boxes.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, the storage box 4 is a square box with a slanted opening at the top for easy feeding. This slanted opening allows operators to easily add meat products without precise alignment or laborious adjustments, thus improving feeding speed and efficiency. Furthermore, the square box design makes the layout of the storage boxes on the rotary cutting table 2 more compact and orderly, maximizing the use of the table's space and allowing for an increase in the number of storage boxes, further enhancing the equipment's slicing efficiency.

[0028] As a preferred embodiment, the pressing mechanism also includes pressing rods 9 evenly distributed around the rotation axis, pressing blocks are installed at the bottom of the pressing rods, and pressing cylinders 10 arranged parallel to the pressing rods are also installed on the rotary cutting table. The telescopic end of the pressing cylinder is installed upward, and the driving end of the pressing cylinder is connected to the pressing rod through the connector 16. The pressing cylinder can be replaced by a linear motor, electric push rod, etc. The above structural design has the following advantages: (1) Enhanced pressing stability and uniformity: Through the pressing rods evenly distributed around the rotation axis, each storage box can receive stable pressing support, ensuring uniform pressure on the meat products during the slicing process and avoiding problems such as uneven slice thickness or incomplete slices. (2) Improved automation and flexibility: The introduction of the pressing cylinder enables the pressing process to be automated through pneumatic control, which not only improves the operating efficiency but also enhances the flexibility of the equipment. The pressing force and speed can be adjusted according to different slicing requirements.

[0029] As a preferred embodiment, the pressing block includes a fixed base 11, and a soft pressing block 12 is installed at the bottom of the fixed base. The above structural design has the following advantages: (1) The design of the soft pressing block can ensure effective pressing of meat products, avoid damage to meat products, and reduce wear on the equipment during the pressing process, thus extending the service life of the equipment. (2) The pressing block consists of a fixed base and a replaceable soft pressing block. This modular design makes maintenance and replacement work simpler and more convenient, reducing maintenance costs and time.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, a support plate 13 is also installed on the rotary cutting table at the top position corresponding to the pressure cylinder. A sliding hole 14 is also installed on the support plate at the position corresponding to the pressure rod, and the sliding hole cooperates with the pressure rod for sliding. By installing a support plate on the rotary cutting table at the top position corresponding to the pressure cylinder and providing a sliding hole for the pressure rod, the pressure rod can maintain a stable sliding trajectory during the pressing process, avoiding problems such as uneven pressing or decreased slice quality caused by shaking or deviation. This design enhances the stability and reliability of the pressing mechanism.

[0031] As a preferred embodiment, a retaining ring 15 is also installed on the rotary cutting table 2 at the position corresponding to the outer periphery of the storage box. The retaining ring 15 protrudes from the rotary cutting table surface and can effectively prevent meat products from falling out of the storage box during the slicing process, keeping the work area clean and avoiding waste and loss caused by meat products falling out. The rotary cutting table extends from the top of the rotating shaft and is connected to a fixed seat. The storage box is installed on the side wall of the fixed seat, the pressing mechanism is installed on the top of the fixed seat, and the drive motor is connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft. The above structural design: (1) Optimize the installation structure of the storage box and the pressing mechanism: The storage box is installed on the side wall of the fixed seat at the top of the rotating shaft, and the pressing mechanism is installed on the top of the fixed seat. This design not only makes the installation of the storage box and the pressing mechanism more stable, but also facilitates their maintenance and replacement. At the same time, the drive motor connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft provides a stable power source for the entire rotary cutting process, ensuring the continuity and efficiency of the slicing operation. (2) Improve the compactness and stability of the overall structure of the equipment: The above design makes the overall structure of the rotary cutting machine more compact and reasonable, reduces unnecessary space waste, and also improves the stability and durability of the equipment. This compact structural design facilitates the transportation, installation, and commissioning of the equipment, and also makes it easier for users to maintain and service it in daily use.

[0032] The working principle of this equipment is as follows:

[0033] The working process of the above-mentioned multi-station automatic veneer cutting machine is as follows:

[0034] 1. Initial Preparation: First, place the meat products into multiple storage boxes sequentially. The storage boxes are designed to be square with a slanted opening at the top for easy feeding. The storage boxes are mounted on the side wall of the fixed base at the top of the rotating shaft, evenly distributed around the shaft. The pressing mechanism, including pressing rods and pressing blocks (composed of a fixed base and a soft pressing block), is mounted on top of the fixed base, corresponding to the position of each storage box.

[0035] (2) Pressing process: When the storage box is full of meat products, the pressing cylinder is activated, and its telescopic end pushes downward, driving the pressing rod and pressing block to move downward through the connecting parts, thus pressing the meat products in the storage box. The soft pressing block ensures effective pressing of the meat products while avoiding damage to them.

[0036] (3) Start the equipment: Connect the power supply and start the drive motor. The drive motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the fixed base and storage box to rotate together. During the rotation, each storage box will pass through the pressing position, the slicing position and the discharge position in sequence.

[0037] (4) Slicing process: The storage box rotates to the slicing position. At this time, the rotary cutter is tilted at the discharge port to continuously slice the meat products horizontally. The sliced ​​meat products fall into the discharge hopper through the discharge port and finally reach the receiving platform.

[0038] (5) Discharge and collection: If the equipment is designed for continuous discharge, the sliced ​​meat products will continuously fall into the receiving platform through the discharge hopper; if the equipment is designed for intermittent discharge, the rotating shaft needs to be stopped at an appropriate time to remove the meat products from the receiving platform.

[0039] (6) Cyclic operation: Throughout the process, the rotating shaft rotates continuously, driving the storage box to pass through the pressing, slicing and discharging positions in sequence, realizing continuous and efficient slicing operations. At the same time, the pressing cylinder, rotary cutter and other components automatically complete their respective actions according to the predetermined program under the control of the control system.

[0040] (7) Maintenance and upkeep: During use, it is necessary to regularly check the operating status of the equipment, clean the working area in a timely manner, and replace worn parts. In particular, vulnerable parts such as soft pressing blocks need to be checked and replaced regularly to ensure the normal operation of the equipment and the quality of the slices.

[0041] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
