Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sausage stuffer technology, specifically to a meat filling hopper structure for sausage stuffing. Background Technology

[0002] A hydraulic sausage filling machine is a food processing device driven by a hydraulic system. It is mainly used to fill sausage casings with minced meat, sausage ingredients, etc., and is widely used in the production of sausages, hams, and cured sausages. The principle is that a hydraulic pump generates high-pressure oil, which drives the piston inside the hydraulic cylinder, thereby applying uniform and stable pressure to the meat material to achieve efficient filling.

[0003] In the existing hydraulic sausage stuffing machine, when the meat filling in the hopper contains too much fascia, cartilage, or excessive plant protein, it can cause blockage. In this case, the operator needs to manually clear the hopper with a material guide rod, which requires repeated operation, affecting the progress of other processes and reducing the overall efficiency of sausage stuffing. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a meat filling hopper structure for sausage stuffing, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that when the meat filling in the hopper contains too much fascia, cartilage or excessive plant protein during the sausage stuffing process, it will cause the meat filling in the hopper to become blocked. At this time, the operator needs to use a hand-held material guide rod to clear the material from the hopper, which requires the operator to operate repeatedly, affecting the progress of other processes and reducing the overall efficiency of sausage stuffing.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a meat filling hopper structure for sausage stuffing, comprising a sausage stuffer body and a material discharging section:

[0006] The material feeding section is located at the top of the sausage filling machine body. The material feeding section has a hopper located at the top of the sausage filling machine body. A support frame is provided at the top of the hopper. A drive rod is vertically rotatably installed inside the support frame. An inclined groove is opened on the side of the drive rod. A lifting rod is vertically slidably nested outside the drive rod. The lifting rod is embedded in the inclined groove and is connected to the drive rod for transmission. The drive rod rotates to drive the inclined groove to move vertically up and down.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, automated meat filling control can be achieved. When the meat filling in the hopper becomes blocked, the rotational motion of the drive rod is converted into vertical reciprocating motion through the cooperation of the inclined groove and the lifting rod, thereby driving the pressing mechanism to mechanically clear the blocked meat filling, effectively reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency.

[0008] Preferably, the material discharge section also has a pressing head located at the bottom of the lifting rod, and the bottom of the hopper is provided with a discharge port that is connected to the interior of the sausage filling machine body. The pressing head is located directly above the discharge port.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when the pressing head moves down with the lifting rod, it can directly apply pressure to the meat filling at the outlet, effectively solving the problem of outlet blockage. At the same time, the reciprocating motion of the pressing head can also exert a certain squeezing effect on the meat filling, promoting the uniform discharge of the meat filling.

[0010] Preferably, the bottom of the pressing head is inverted conical, and the outer surface of the pressing head is covered with a layer of rubber.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the inverted cone design can better adapt to the shape of the discharge port and improve the unblocking efficiency. In addition, the rubber layer can prevent metal from directly contacting food and provide a certain buffering effect to avoid damage to the meat filling structure.

[0012] Preferably, the material unloading section also has a transmission box disposed on the top of the support frame, a motor disposed on the top of the transmission box, the output end of the motor being connected to the transmission box, and the transmission output end of the transmission box being connected to the top of the drive rod.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the motor can transmit power to the drive rod through the transmission box, thereby driving the drive rod to rotate.

[0014] Preferably, the material discharge section also has a groove formed at the top of the lifting rod, and the drive rod is vertically embedded in the groove and vertically slidably connected to the lifting rod.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the cooperation between the slide and the drive rod can ensure the vertical movement trajectory of the lifting rod and achieve effective power transmission.

[0016] Preferably, a wavy groove is formed around the side of the drive rod.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the drive rod can be designed to slide up and down repeatedly during rotation using a wave-shaped inclined groove.

[0018] Preferably, the material discharge section also has a slide rod disposed on the inner wall of the chute. The slide rod is embedded in the inclined groove and slidably connected to the inclined groove. There are two slide rods, and the two slide rods are in a central rotational symmetric structure around the axis of the lifting rod.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the symmetrical arrangement of the two slide bars can significantly improve the smoothness of the lifting rod's movement and the uniformity of force distribution. The design of the two slide bars makes the driving force distribution more uniform and can withstand a larger working load.

[0020] Preferably, the material unloading section also has a limiting rod disposed on the side of the lifting rod, the limiting rod passing vertically through the support frame and slidingly connected to the support frame vertically.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the movement trajectory of the lifting rod can be further ensured to remain vertical through the cooperation of the limit rod and the support frame.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: by setting up a material dropping part, automated control of minced meat feeding can be realized. When the minced meat in the hopper becomes blocked, the rotational motion of the drive rod is converted into vertical reciprocating motion through the cooperation of the inclined groove and the lifting rod, thereby driving the pressing mechanism to mechanically unblock the blocked minced meat, effectively reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency.

[0029] 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.

[0030] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3This embodiment provides a technical solution: a meat filling hopper structure for sausage stuffing, comprising a sausage stuffer body 1 and a material discharging section 2.

[0031] The feeding section 2 is located at the top of the sausage filling machine body 1. The sausage filling machine works by using a hydraulic pump to generate high-pressure oil, which drives the piston in the hydraulic cylinder to move, thereby applying uniform and stable pressure to the meat material to achieve efficient filling. The feeding section 2 has a hopper 201 located at the top of the sausage filling machine body 1. A support frame 203 is provided at the top of the hopper 201. A drive rod 206 is vertically rotatably mounted inside the support frame 203. An inclined groove 207 is opened on the side of the drive rod 206, and the outside of the drive rod 206 slides vertically. A lifting rod 208 is nested within the inclined groove 207 and is connected to the drive rod 206. The drive rod 206 rotates to drive the inclined groove 207 to move vertically up and down, enabling automated control of meat filling. When the meat filling in the hopper 201 becomes blocked, the rotational motion of the drive rod 206 is converted into vertical reciprocating motion through the cooperation of the inclined groove 207 and the lifting rod 208, thereby driving the pressing mechanism to mechanically clear the blocked meat filling, effectively reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency.

[0032] Example 2: Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 This embodiment provides a technical solution: a meat filling hopper structure for sausage stuffing, including a feeding section 2, a drive rod 206, and a lifting rod 208.

[0033] A pressing head 212 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the lifting rod 208. The fixing method is an existing detachable fixing, such as bolt connection, snap connection, etc. The bottom of the hopper 201 is provided with a discharge port 202 and is connected to the inside of the sausage stuffer body 1. The pressing head 212 is located directly above the discharge port 202. When the pressing head 212 moves down with the lifting rod 208, it can directly apply pressure to the meat filling at the discharge port 202, effectively solving the problem of blockage at the discharge port 202. At the same time, the reciprocating motion of the pressing head 212 can also produce a certain squeezing effect on the meat filling, promoting the uniform discharge of the meat filling.

[0034] The bottom of the pressing head 212 is inverted conical, and the outer surface of the pressing head 212 is covered with a layer of rubber. The inverted conical design can better adapt to the shape of the discharge port 202 and improve the unblocking efficiency. In addition, the rubber layer can prevent metal from directly contacting food and provide a certain buffering effect to avoid damage to the meat filling structure.

[0035] A transmission box 204 is fixed on top of the support frame 203. The fixing method is an existing detachable fixing, such as bolt connection, snap connection, etc. A motor 205 is set on the top of the transmission box 204. The working principle of the motor 205 is based on electromagnetic induction and Lorentz force. The motor 205 generates force in the magnetic field through current, thereby driving mechanical movement. The above is the existing technology and will not be elaborated further below. When selecting the model, its power should be selected to match the needs of the device to ensure that the object to be driven is driven. The output end of the motor 205 is connected to the transmission box 204, and the transmission output end of the transmission box 204 is connected to the top of the drive rod 206, so that the motor 205 can transmit power to the drive rod 206 through the transmission box 204 to drive the drive rod 206 to rotate.

[0036] A groove 209 is provided at the top of the lifting rod 208. The drive rod 206 is vertically embedded in the groove 209 and vertically slidably connected to the lifting rod 208. This allows the cooperation between the groove 209 and the drive rod 206 to ensure the vertical movement trajectory of the lifting rod 208 and to achieve effective power transmission.

[0037] A wavy groove 207 is formed around the side of the drive rod 206. The wavy groove 207 allows the drive rod 206 to slide up and down repeatedly when rotating.

[0038] A slide rod 210 is integrally provided on the inner wall of the slide groove 209. The slide rod 210 is embedded in the inclined groove 207 and slidably connected to the inclined groove 207. There are two slide rods 210. The two slide rods 210 are in a central rotational symmetric structure around the axis of the lifting rod 208. The symmetrical arrangement of the two slide rods 210 can significantly improve the smoothness of the movement and the uniformity of the force on the lifting rod 208. The design of the two slide rods 210 makes the driving force distribution more uniform and can withstand a larger working load.

[0039] A limiting rod 211 is fixedly installed on the side of the lifting rod 208. The fixing method is an existing detachable fixing, such as bolt connection, snap connection, etc. The limiting rod 211 passes vertically through the support frame 203 and slides vertically with the support frame 203. The cooperation between the limiting rod 211 and the support frame 203 can further ensure that the movement trajectory of the lifting rod 208 remains vertical.

[0040] Working Principle: First, the device is powered on. Then, the motor 205 drives the drive rod 206 to rotate through the transmission box 204. The rotational motion of the drive rod 206 is converted into the vertical reciprocating motion of the lifting rod 208 through the cooperation of the inclined groove 207 and the slide rod 210. When the pressing head 212 moves down with the lifting rod 208, its inverted conical structure applies downward squeezing force to the minced meat at the discharge port 202. At the same time, the rubber layer provides buffer protection, and the limit rod 211 ensures that the entire movement maintains a precise vertical trajectory. The two symmetrically arranged slide rods 210 ensure the balance of power transmission, enabling the equipment to operate stably and withstand large workloads. The entire process is fully automated and can effectively solve the problem of material hopper blockage without manual intervention.
