Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chopping machine technology, and in particular to a water supply device for a chopping machine. Background Technology
[0002] A meat chopper is a device used to chop meat and other ingredients into minced meat or meat paste in a short time. The optimal combination of the chopper's blade speed, pot speed, and the gap between the chopper blade and the rotating pot results in finely chopped products with low temperature rise and short chopping time. In particular, due to emulsification, the fineness and elasticity of sausage products are greatly enhanced, maximizing the emulsification effect, elasticity, and delicacy of meat products.
[0003] Currently, when water needs to be added to a chopping machine during use, workers usually add it manually using a water pipe. This makes it impossible to accurately estimate the amount of water added, which can easily result in too much or too little water being added, thus reducing the quality of the chopped material.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a water supply device for a chopper to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0030] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0031] Reference Figure 1-4This utility model provides a water supply device for a meat chopper: It includes a base 1, a meat chopper body 2 mounted on top of the base 1, a placement frame 3 fixedly connected to one side of the meat chopper body 2, a weighing sensor 4 mounted on the bottom of the inner wall of the placement frame 3, a water tank 5 inside the placement frame 3, a water supply pipe 6 mounted on the water tank 5, a solenoid valve 7 mounted on the water supply pipe 6, an adjusting plate 8 inside the placement frame 3, a threaded rod 9 threadedly connected to the adjusting plate 8, the threaded rod 9 being movably connected to the water tank 5, and a sealing plate 10 rotatably connected to the bottom end of the threaded rod 9. A floating plate 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sealing plate 10, and a water supply pipe 6 movably passes through the sealing plate 10 and the floating plate 11. A quantitative component and a water supply component are set on the placement frame 3. Through the coordinated use of the base 1, the chopper body 2, the placement frame 3, the weighing sensor 4, the water supply tank 5, the water supply pipe 6, the solenoid valve 7, the water pump 16 and the nozzle 18, the water supply in the water supply tank 5 can be adjusted more accurately by weight detection, so that the required water can be added accurately each time, thereby improving the quality of the subsequent material chopping.
[0032] Guide grooves 12 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the placement frame 3. The water supply tank 5 and the adjusting plate 8 are slidably connected to the two guide grooves 12. The bottom of the water supply tank 5 is fixedly connected to the support frame 13. The bottom of the support frame 13 is movably abutting against the top of the weighing sensor 4. By setting the guide grooves 12, the adjusting plate 8 can be guided and limited to prevent it from rotating. At the same time, when the threaded rod 9 is rotated, it can be limited to move on the adjusting plate 8.
[0033] The metering component includes a ball valve 14 and a rack 15. The ball valve 14 is mounted on the water supply pipe 6, and a gear 20 is fixedly connected to the ball valve 14. The rack 15 is fixedly mounted on the top of the adjusting plate 8 and meshes with the gear 20. The outer surface of the sealing plate 10 moves and abuts against the inner wall of the water supply tank 5. By setting up the metering component, during the water injection detection work of the weighing sensor 4, the added water simultaneously lifts the float plate 11, the threaded rod 9, the adjusting plate 8, and the rack 15. The moving rack 15, in conjunction with the gear 20, automatically closes the ball valve 14, thus stopping the water injection work at the same time. This also avoids the problem of the weighing sensor 4 failing to automatically stop the water injection work due to damage caused by prolonged use, thereby improving the safety of the device during use.
[0034] The water supply assembly includes a water pump 16 fixedly installed on the front of the placement frame 3. The input end of the water pump 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water supply tank 5, and the output end of the water pump 16 is fixedly connected to a water supply pipe 17. A support plate 19 is fixedly connected to the top of the chopper body 2. The water supply pipe 17 is fixedly connected to the support plate 19. A nozzle 18 is provided at the other end of the water supply pipe 17. Through the arrangement of the water supply assembly, water inside the water supply tank 5 can be drawn and injected into the chopper.
[0035] Working principle: During operation, the end of the water supply pipe 6 furthest from the water supply tank 5 is connected to the external pump body via a flexible hose. Then, the material to be chopped is added into the chopper body 2, and a preset value is set to the weighing sensor 4 based on the material quantity. Next, the threaded rod 9 is rotated to move the sealing plate 10 and the float plate upwards. With the scale of the observation window in the water supply tank 5, the float plate 11 is adjusted to a suitable height. Based on the distance at which the upward movement of the rack 15 can drive the gear 20 to rotate and close the ball valve 14, the threaded rod 9 is rotated again to move the float plate 11 down to that distance. Then, the solenoid valve 7 is opened, and water is added into the water supply tank 5 through the external pump body and water injection pipe. Simultaneously, the weighing sensor 4 continuously monitors the water injection volume. After reaching the preset value, the solenoid valve 7 automatically closes. During the water injection process, as water is continuously added and comes into contact with the bottom of the float plate 11, it pushes the float plate 11 upward. The float plate 11 drives the sealing plate 10, threaded rod 9, adjusting plate 8 and rack 15 to move upward synchronously. The upward-moving rack 15 drives the gear 20 that meshes with it to rotate. The gear 20 drives the ball valve 14 to rotate, automatically adjusting the amount of water injected. When the preset value of the weighing sensor 4 is reached, the solenoid valve 7 automatically closes, and the ball valve 14 also automatically closes, stopping the water injection in the water supply tank 5. Then, the water pump 16 is started to draw water from the water supply tank 5 and transport it through the water pipe 17. The water is then sprayed out by the nozzle 18 into the chopper body 2 for chopping the materials.
[0036] 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.
