Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of meat grinding technology, and in particular to a meat cutting and grinding machine for meat processing. Background Technology

[0002] Meat grinders are used by meat processing companies to process raw meat into granular minced meat of varying sizes according to different process requirements, so that it can be fully mixed with other auxiliary materials to meet the needs of different products. They are widely used in various industries such as sausages, ham sausages, luncheon meat, meatballs, savory flavorings, pet food and other meat products.

[0003] Because the raw meat is relatively large, if it is put directly into the meat grinder, it will take longer to grind larger pieces of meat evenly. However, some meat grinders have short feed pipes, which may not be able to grind the meat evenly in time, and blockages may occur, rendering the machine unusable. Operators will then have to spend time and effort to disassemble and clear the blockages. Utility Model Content

[0027] To better explain and facilitate understanding of this utility model, the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the present invention provides a meat processing cutting and grinding machine, which includes a decomposition mechanism and a meat grinder body 4. The upper part of the meat grinder body 4 is provided with a feeding port 2, which is connected to the interior of the meat grinder body 4. A feeding hopper 3 is provided on the feeding port 2, and the decomposition mechanism is connected to the feeding hopper 3.

[0029] The disassembly mechanism includes a frame 6, a rotating piercing assembly 1, and a telescopic cutting assembly 5. The lower part of the frame 6 is connected to the end of the feed hopper 3 away from the feed inlet 2. The telescopic cutting assembly 5 is disposed inside the feed hopper 3 and connected to the frame 6. The rotating piercing assembly 1 is disposed above the telescopic cutting assembly 5 and connected to the upper part of the frame 6.

[0030] The rotating piercing assembly 1 includes a lifting assembly, a first rotating drive 105, a turntable 107, and a plurality of piercing needles 104. The upper part of the lifting assembly is connected to the upper part of the frame 6, the turntable 107 is rotatably connected to the lower part of the lifting assembly, the first rotating drive 105 is drivenly connected to the upper part of the turntable 107, and a plurality of piercing needles 104 are provided on the lower part of the turntable 107.

[0031] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In actual production and use, when it is necessary to grind meat, the operator can first place a large piece of meat inside the feed hopper 3 and below the needle 104. Then, the lifting component is operated, which drives the needle 104 to descend and pierce the middle of the meat. Then, the telescopic cutting component 5 is operated, which cuts the meat within its range and separates it from the meat part of the needle 104. Then, the telescopic cutting component 5 is reset. After the reset, the first rotating drive component 105 is operated, which drives the needle 104 to rotate through the turntable 107. As the needle 104 rotates, it drives the uncut part of the meat to rotate into the range of the telescopic cutting component 5 for cutting. While the needle 104 drives the uncut meat to rotate, the cut meat can be moved so that it enters the meat grinder body 4 through the feed inlet 2 for grinding. Then, the meat grinder body 4 is operated to grind the meat and discharge it.

[0032] Furthermore, the lifting assembly includes a first linear drive 101, a lifting plate 103, a slider 106, and a slide rail 102. The upper part of the first linear drive 101 is connected to the upper part of the frame 6, and the lower part of the first linear drive 101 is linearly driven connected to the upper part of the lifting plate 103. The turntable 107 is rotatably connected to the lower part of the lifting plate 103. The first rotation drive 105 is disposed inside the lifting plate 103. A slide rail 102 is provided on both sides of the lifting plate 103, and a slider 106 is provided at both ends of the lifting plate 103. A slider 106 is slidably connected to a slide rail 102.

[0033] As can be seen from the above description, when it is necessary to fix the middle of a large piece of meat by piercing, the meat can be placed under the piercing needle 104 first, and then the first linear drive 101 is operated, so that the first linear drive 101 drives the piercing needle 104 to descend through the lifting plate 103, so that the piercing needle 104 is inserted into the middle of the meat for fixation. Then the telescopic cutting component 5 is operated to cut the meat within the range of motion of the telescopic cutting component 5. After the meat in the range of motion is cut, the first rotation drive 105 can be operated to move the uncut meat into the range of motion of the telescopic cutting component 5 for cutting.

[0034] Furthermore, it also includes a blocking member 8, the lower part of one slide rail 102 is connected to the lower part of another slide rail 102 through the blocking member 8, the blocking member 8 is provided with a blocking hole 9 in the middle that is adapted to the needle 104, and the needles 104 are all inserted into the blocking hole 9.

[0035] As can be seen from the above description, after the meat around the needle 104 has been cut, the first linear drive 101 can be operated, so that the first linear drive 101 drives the needle 104 to rise and reset through the lifting plate 103. When the needle 104 passes through the blocking hole 9 on the blocking member 8, the meat on the needle 104 is blocked by the blocking hole 9. Then, as the needle 104 rises, the meat on the needle 104 is removed from the needle 104 and falls onto the feeding hopper 3. Then, it slides into the meat grinder body 4 through the feeding hopper 3 for meat grinding.

[0036] Furthermore, the telescopic cutting assembly 5 includes a fixed plate 502, a movable frame 504, a second linear drive 501, a second rotary drive 505, a rotating shaft, and a disc cutter 506. The second linear drive 501 is connected to the lower part of the frame 6 through the fixed plate 502. The second linear drive 501 is linearly driven connected to one side of the movable frame 504. The disc cutter 506 is rotatably driven connected to the other side of the movable frame 504 through the rotating shaft. The second rotary drive 505 is driven connected to the rotating shaft. The disc cutter 506 is movably connected inside the feed hopper 3, and the angle of movement of the disc cutter 506 is offset from that of the piercing needle 104.

[0037] As can be seen from the above description, when it is necessary to cut meat within the range of motion of the telescopic cutting component 5, the middle of the meat can be fixed first by the needle 104, and then the second rotating drive 505 can be run to drive the disc cutting blade 506 to rotate at high speed through the rotating shaft. Then the second linear drive 501 can be run to drive the disc cutting blade 506 to move towards the needle 104 through the moving frame 504, so that the disc cutting blade 506 can cut and separate the meat. Since the disc cutting blade 506 and the needle 104 are at different angles, the disc cutting blade 506 can cut and separate the meat better.

[0038] Furthermore, it also includes slide rods 503. Several slide rods 503 are provided on the movable frame 504, and each slide rod 503 is slidably connected to the fixed plate 502.

[0039] As can be seen from the above description, the movable frame 504 slides more stably on the fixed plate 502 via the slide bar 503, making the disc cutter 506 more stable during the cutting process.

[0040] Furthermore, the bottom surface inside the feed hopper 3 is set as an inclined surface 7, which is inclined from the telescopic cutting assembly 5 toward the feed inlet 2.

[0041] As can be seen from the above description, this allows the cut meat to slide more easily down the inclined plane 7 to the feed inlet 2 and fall into the meat grinder body 4 for grinding.

[0042] Furthermore, it also includes a PLC controller, which is electrically connected to both the disassembly mechanism and the meat grinder body 4.

[0043] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial to adjust the parameters of the meat processing cutting and grinding machine through the PLC controller, and to make it more convenient for operators to operate the meat processing cutting and grinding machine.
