Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of edible fungi cultivation technology, specifically relating to an auxiliary device for pre-tearing the outer bag of a mushroom log. Background Technology

[0002] During the cultivation of mushroom spawn, an outer bag is wrapped around the spawn to ensure its proper shape. This outer bag needs to be removed later in the cultivation process. Currently, removing the outer bag requires first using a blade to cut it open, and then tearing it off the spawn. During this process, the operator needs to hold the spawn in one hand and use the other hand to hold a blade to cut open the outer bag. This increases the operator's workload due to the need to hold the spawn, and also poses a safety risk due to the blade potentially causing cuts. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model provides a pre-tear auxiliary device for the outer bag of mushroom sticks, which aims to solve the problems of high labor intensity and low safety in the tearing process of the outer bag of mushroom sticks in the prior art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: to provide an auxiliary device for pre-tearing the outer bag of the mushroom substrate, comprising:

[0005] Support base;

[0006] The chassis, mounted on the support base, is used to support the bottom end of the mushroom sticks;

[0007] A pressure plate is installed above the chassis and is slidably mounted on the support base in the vertical direction;

[0008] A clamping member is installed on the support base, and the driving end of the clamping member is connected to the pressure plate to drive the pressure plate to move on the support base;

[0009] A cutter, mounted on the support base and having a vertically adjustable position on the support base, is used to cut the outer skin of the mushroom log.

[0010] In one possible implementation, both the chassis and the pressure plate are rotatably mounted on the support base, and the support base is also equipped with a drive component for driving the chassis to rotate.

[0011] In one possible implementation, a tray is mounted on the chassis, and the tray is provided with a placement groove for placing mushroom sticks, the outer diameter of which is adapted to the inner diameter of the placement groove.

[0012] In one possible implementation, a plurality of arc-shaped baffles are provided extending upward on the tray, and the plurality of arc-shaped baffles are evenly spaced along the circumference of the tray.

[0013] In one possible implementation, both the tray and the pressure plate are provided with clearances to allow the cutter to pass.

[0014] In one possible implementation, the support base is provided with an adjustment component for adjusting the position of the cutter, the adjustment component comprising:

[0015] A threaded sleeve is slidably disposed on the support base in a vertical direction, and the cutter is mounted on the threaded sleeve;

[0016] The lead screw is rotatably mounted on the support base and is threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve.

[0017] In one possible implementation, the cutter's position on the threaded sleeve has a degree of freedom to swing along a pitch angle.

[0018] In one possible implementation, two elastic elements for pulling the cutter to swing on the threaded sleeve are also connected between the cutter and the threaded sleeve, and the two elastic elements are located on both sides of the cutter in the vertical direction.

[0019] In one possible implementation, the cutter has cutting edges on both the upper and lower sides for cutting the outer bag skin.

[0026] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0027] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 3 The present invention provides a pre-tear auxiliary device for the outer bag of mushroom spawn. The pre-tear auxiliary device includes a support base 1, a base plate 2, a pressure plate 3, a clamping member 4, and a cutter 5. The base plate 2 is mounted on the support base 1 to support the bottom end of the mushroom spawn; the pressure plate 3 is mounted above the base plate 2 and slides vertically on the support base 1; the clamping member 4 is mounted on the support base 1, and its driving end is connected to the pressure plate 3 to move the pressure plate 3 on the support base 1; the cutter 5 is mounted on the support base 1 and has a vertically adjustable position on the support base 1 for cutting the outer bag of the mushroom spawn.

[0028] The pre-tear auxiliary device for the outer bag of the mushroom stick provided in this embodiment, compared with the prior art, is equipped with a support base 1, a base plate 2 installed on the top surface of the support base 1, and a pressure plate 3 installed directly above the base plate 2. The pressure plate 3 is slidably mounted on the support base 1 in the vertical direction and is moved by the driving end of the clamping member 4. The pressure plate 3 and the base plate 2 form a placement position for placing the mushroom stick. A cutter 5 is installed on one side of the placement position and is mounted on the support base 1, and can move in the vertical direction on the support base 1. In this application, when tearing the outer bag of the mushroom stick, the mushroom patch can be placed on the base plate 2 first, and the mushroom stick can be pressed and fixed by the pressure plate 3. Then, the cutter 5 moves in the vertical direction to cut the outer bag. After the cutting is completed, the operator removes the mushroom stick and tears off the outer bag. The cutting process of the outer bag is completed by the auxiliary device, thereby reducing the labor of the operator and avoiding the blade from cutting the operator, thus improving the safety of the operator during the operation.

[0029] Specifically, in this embodiment, a guide rod is installed above the pressure plate 3, and a guide sleeve that slides with the guide rod is fixedly installed on the support base 1. The guide rod is slidably disposed inside the guide sleeve. The clamping member 4 is a cylinder, and the driving end of the cylinder is hinged to the guide rod.

[0030] In some embodiments, the chassis 2 and the pressure plate 3 can be adopted as follows: Figure 1 , Figure 2 The structure shown. See also... Figure 1 , Figure 2 The chassis 2 and pressure plate 3 are both rotatably mounted on the support base 1, which is also equipped with a drive unit 6 for driving the chassis 2 to rotate. The drive unit 6 is a synchronous motor, which can drive the chassis 2 to rotate. The pressure plate 3 rotates freely at the end of the guide rod. The axis of rotation of the pressure plate 3 on the guide rod is coaxial with the axis of rotation of the chassis 2 on the support base 1. After one side of the mushroom stick is cut, the tray 21 can be rotated by the drive unit 6, thereby changing the cutting position of the mushroom stick. Multiple cuts can be made at multiple positions on the outside of the mushroom stick, making it easier to tear the outer bag skin off the mushroom stick later. Multiple cuts can be made around the outside of the mushroom stick to facilitate the removal of the outer bag skin later.

[0031] In some embodiments, the chassis 2 described above may adopt the following... Figure 2 The structure shown. See also Figure 2 A tray 21 is mounted on the base 2, and the tray 21 has a placement groove for placing mushroom sticks. The outer diameter of the mushroom sticks is adapted to the inner diameter of the placement groove. The tray 21 is fixed to the top of the base 2 with bolts. The axis of the placement groove on the tray 21 is coaxial with the axis of rotation of the base 2 on the support 1. When the base 2 rotates, it synchronously drives the tray 21 to rotate. The placement groove on the top of the tray 21 is adapted to the outer diameter of the mushroom sticks. This allows for positioning of the mushroom sticks and guides them, preventing them from tilting.

[0032] Specifically, in this embodiment, the tray 21 is detachably installed on the chassis 2. The tray 21 with a suitable placement slot can be selected and installed on the chassis 2 according to the different sizes of mushroom sticks, so that it can be used for the outer bag cutting operation of mushroom sticks of different sizes.

[0033] In some embodiments, the tray 21 described above may be as follows: Figure 2 The structure shown. See also Figure 2Multiple arc-shaped baffles 211 extend upwards from the tray 21, and are evenly spaced along the circumference of the tray 21. These arc-shaped baffles 211, arranged at even intervals along the circumference of the tray 21, provide increased support for the mushroom logs, further ensuring the stability of the logs during cutting.

[0034] In some embodiments, the tray 21 described above may be as follows: Figure 2 The structure shown. See also Figure 2 Both the tray 21 and the pressing plate 3 are equipped with clearances to allow the cutting blade 5 to pass. When the cutting blade 5 moves to either end of the mushroom log, these clearances allow it to avoid damage. Simultaneously, the cutting blade 5 can move above the pressing plate 3 and below the tray 21, reducing residue at the outer bag connection point and making it easier to remove the outer bag from the mushroom log later.

[0035] Specifically, in this embodiment, multiple clearances are provided on both the pallet 21 and the pressure plate 3. These clearances are evenly spaced along the circumference of the pallet 21 and the pressure plate 3. When the chassis 2 rotates a certain angle on the support base 1, the cutter 5 is always located within the projection of the clearance in the vertical direction. This avoids interference between the cutter 5 and the pallet 21 or the pressure plate 3. Furthermore, when the chassis 2 is rotated by the drive unit 6, the rotation angle is a fixed value, ensuring that the cutter 5 is always located within the projection of the clearance in the vertical direction. The control method of the drive unit 6 uses existing technology and will not be described further here.

[0036] In some embodiments, the adjustment component 7 described above may employ, for example... Figure 1 The structure shown. See also Figure 1 The support base 1 is equipped with an adjustment assembly 7 for adjusting the position of the cutter 5. The adjustment assembly 7 includes a threaded sleeve 71 and a lead screw 72. The threaded sleeve 71 is slidably mounted on the support base 1 in the vertical direction, and the cutter 5 is mounted on the threaded sleeve 71. The lead screw 72 is rotatably mounted on the support base 1 and is threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve 71. A vertical plate is fixedly mounted on the support base 1, with its length direction arranged vertically. A groove is provided in the middle of the vertical plate, with its length direction arranged vertically. A slider is slidably mounted inside the groove, and the slider is fixedly connected to the threaded sleeve 71, with the cutter 5 mounted on the slider. The slider serves both to guide the movement of the threaded sleeve 71 and to limit the rotation of the threaded sleeve 71 with the lead screw 72, ensuring that the threaded sleeve 71 can move stably in the vertical direction. A motor is fixedly mounted on the support base 1, and the drive end of the motor is connected to the lead screw 72. The motor drives the lead screw 72 to rotate, thereby moving the threaded sleeve 71 in the vertical direction.

[0037] In some embodiments, the cutter 5 described above can be as follows: Figure 1 , Figure 3 The structure shown. See also... Figure 1 , Figure 3 The cutter 5, positioned on the threaded sleeve 71, has the freedom to swing along its pitch angle. The end of the cutter 5 furthest from the threaded sleeve 71 is the blade tip. When the cutter 5 moves downwards to cut the outer bag skin, its tilt angle can be adjusted to tilt the blade tip upwards. Conversely, when the cutter 5 moves upwards to cut the outer bag skin, its tilt angle can be adjusted to tilt the blade tip downwards. This allows the cutter 5 to cut the outer bag skin both downwards and upwards. In use, the cutter 5 can first be driven downwards to cut the outer bag skin, then the base 2 can be rotated to change the cutting position, and the tilt angle of the cutter 5 adjusted to drive it upwards to cut the outer bag skin. This allows for cutting the outer bag skin during both the up-and-down reciprocating movements of the cutter 5, improving cutting efficiency during the pre-tearing process of the mushroom log's outer skin.

[0038] In some embodiments, the cutter 5 described above can be as follows: Figure 1 , Figure 3 The structure shown. See also... Figure 1 , Figure 3 Two elastic elements 51 are connected between the cutter 5 and the threaded sleeve 71 to pull the cutter 5 to swing on the threaded sleeve 71. The two elastic elements 51 are located on both sides of the cutter 5 along the vertical direction. The elastic elements 51 are tension springs, and the end of the cutter 5 away from the blade tip is hinged to the threaded sleeve 71. The two elastic elements 51 are respectively connected to the upper and lower sides of the middle of the cutter 5, and the other end of the elastic elements 51 is connected to the threaded sleeve 71. The elastic element 51 located above the cutter 5 is used to pull the cutter 5 to swing upward, and the elastic element 51 located below the cutter 5 is used to pull the cutter 5 to swing downward. In the free state, the length direction of the cutter 5 is set in the horizontal direction. When the cutter 5 moves downward to cut the outer bag skin, the cutter 5 will be swung upward by the force of the mushroom stick, and at the same time be swung downward, so that the blade tip of the cutter 5 can effectively come into contact with the outside of the mushroom stick to cut the outer bag skin. When the cutter 5 moves upward to cut the outer bag skin, the cutter 5 will swing downward under the force of the mushroom stick, and the hand will swing upward. During the up and down movement of the cutter 5, the angle is automatically switched, and through the setting of two elastic elements 51, the tip of the cutter 5 can be made to abut against the outside of the mushroom stick to complete the cutting of the outer bag skin of the mushroom stick.

[0039] In some embodiments, the cutter 5 described above can be as follows: Figure 1 , Figure 3 The structure shown. See also... Figure 1 , Figure 3The cutter 5 has cutting edges on both its upper and lower sides for cutting the outer bag skin. With cutting edges on both sides of the cutter 5, when the distance between the mushroom log and the cutter 5 is close, and the cutter 5 is rotated at a large angle, the side of the cutter 5 can abut against the outside of the mushroom log. By having cutting edges on both sides of the cutter 5, the outer bag skin of the mushroom log can be cut through. This improves the applicability of the auxiliary device.

[0040] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
