Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of meat product processing and cleaning, and in particular to a meat product processing and cleaning machine. Background Technology

[0002] Meat products refer to cooked or semi-cooked meat products made primarily from livestock and poultry meat and seasoned with spices, such as sausages, ham, bacon, braised meat, and barbecued meat. In other words, all meat products made primarily from livestock and poultry meat and seasoned with spices are called meat products, regardless of the processing method. These include sausages, ham, bacon, braised meat, barbecued meat, dried meat, meat jerky, meatballs, seasoned meat skewers, meat patties, cured meat, and crystal meat. When processing meat products, it is necessary to clean the impurities and stains attached to the surface of the meat products. The equipment usually used is a bubble cleaning machine.

[0003] Traditional bubbling washing machines for meat processing still have certain shortcomings in use: The working principle of current bubbling washing machines for meat products is usually to use a water pump to draw external water into a hopper in a tank. The bottom of the hopper is generally semi-circular, so the water flow along the inner wall of the hopper will form a vortex. At the same time, an air pump is used to introduce air bubbles into the hopper, which makes the water and meat in the hopper undergo strong tumbling and agitation, thereby cleaning. However, when removing the meat after cleaning, some small pieces of meat are easy to stick to the surface of the hopper after it has been turned over. At this time, workers need to scrape them off manually. In addition, during the turning of the hopper, meat pieces and cleaning water are easy to fall onto the ground near the equipment, resulting in pollution and loss.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new meat processing and cleaning machine to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a meat processing and cleaning machine that allows meat pieces to fall fully from the hopper while preventing meat pieces and washing water from falling onto the ground near the equipment during the hopper tipping process.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a meat product processing and cleaning machine comprising: a cleaning tank, an extraction component, and a hopper component. The hopper component is disposed inside the cleaning tank and includes an upper hopper. A lower hopper is disposed below the upper hopper. A sliding member is fixedly connected to the top edge of the lower hopper. The sliding member is slidably connected to the bottom of the upper hopper. A first spring structure is fixedly connected between the upper hopper and the lower hopper. First vibrators are fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the outer surface of the lower hopper. The extraction component is mounted on the surface of the upper hopper.

[0007] The feeding hopper is hinged to the top of the washing tank. A bracket is fixedly connected to one side wall surface of the washing tank. A collection box is fixedly connected to the bottom of the bracket. Second spring structures are fixedly connected to the left and right edges of the top surface of the bracket. A screen is fixedly connected between the tops of several second spring structures. A second vibrator is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom surface of the screen.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the extraction component includes a first communicating vessel, which is fixedly connected to the outer surface of one side of the feeding hopper. A water nozzle is fixedly connected to the surface of the first communicating vessel through a pipe, and the water nozzle is located inside the feeding hopper.

[0009] With the above technical solution, when in use, pour sufficient cleaning water into the cleaning tank and water tank, and put the meat into the feeding hopper. At this time, turn on the water pump to draw water from the water tank to the water nozzle. The water flow from the water nozzle flows along the arc surface of the feeding hopper, causing the meat and cleaning water to tumble, achieving a good cleaning effect. The mesh on the surface of the feeding hopper can prevent meat scraps from entering the area between the cleaning tank and the feeding hopper assembly. The cleaning tank water that does not reach the water inlet will be filtered by the filter screen and then enter the water tank for recycling.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the first communicating vessel is connected to a water pump via a flexible hose, a water tank is fixedly connected to one side wall surface of the cleaning tank, and the input end of the water pump is connected to the water tank via a pipe.

[0011] Through the above technical solution, the water tank is used to store a certain amount of cleaning water and receive water flowing into the cleaning tank, thereby circulating the water through a water pump.

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model, an inlet is provided between the water tank and the cleaning tank, and a filter screen is fixedly connected to the top surface of the water tank located below the inlet.

[0013] With the above technical solution, since water needs to be drawn from the water tank into the cleaning tank by a water pump, when the water in the cleaning tank rises to the inlet position, it will flow back into the water tank for recycling.

[0014] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a second communicating vessel is fixedly connected to the bottom of the hopper, and a plurality of bubble nozzles are fixedly connected to the top of the second communicating vessel, the bubble nozzles being located inside the hopper.

[0015] With the above technical solution, when water is drawn from the water tank using a water pump and water nozzles to agitate the meat in the hopper, an air pump can be turned on to supply air to several bubble nozzles, making the meat and water inside the hopper agitate more violently.

[0016] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the second communicating vessel is connected to an air pump via a flexible hose, and the air pump is fixedly connected to one side wall surface of the cleaning tank.

[0017] Through the above technical solution, a corresponding filter component can be installed on the surface of the air pump to filter the drawn external air, thereby ensuring that the air impurities entering the cleaning box are greatly reduced.

[0018] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the surface of the feeding hopper is provided with a number of evenly distributed mesh holes, and an electric telescopic rod is hinged between the feeding hopper and the inner wall of the cleaning tank.

[0019] With the above technical solution, after cleaning, the electric telescopic rod is opened to slowly rotate the feeding hopper. At this time, the water inside the feeding hopper passes through the mesh and remains inside the cleaning box. After the feeding hopper rotates to a certain extent, the meat inside will pour into the screen inside the support. At this time, some smaller pieces of meat may stick to the surface of the feeding hopper mesh. The operator can start the first vibrator. Since the feeding hopper and the feeding hopper are slidably connected by sliding parts and connected by the first spring structure, the feeding hopper can vibrate at a certain frequency, causing the smaller pieces or meat scraps attached to its surface to fall to the outside. The structural design can reduce the workload of the operators and is humanized.

[0020] Compared with related technologies, the meat product processing and cleaning machine provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] 1. In this utility model, after the cleaning is completed, the electric telescopic rod is opened to drive the upper hopper to slowly rotate. At this time, the water inside the lower hopper passes through the mesh and remains inside the cleaning box. After the upper hopper rotates to a certain extent, the meat inside will be poured into the screen on the inner side of the support. At this time, some smaller pieces of meat are likely to stick to the surface of the lower hopper mesh. The operator can start the first vibrator. Since the upper hopper and the lower hopper are connected to each other by sliding parts and are also connected by the first spring structure, the lower hopper can vibrate at a certain frequency, causing the smaller pieces or meat scraps attached to its surface to fall to the outside. The structural design can reduce the workload of the operator and is humanized.

[0022] 2. In this utility model, after the feeding hopper is flipped, the meat inside will fall onto the screen surface. The user can place the material box on the lower side of the bottom of the screen plate and start the second vibrator. Since the screen is fixedly connected to the support through the second spring structure, the meat on its surface can slowly move down and smoothly enter the corresponding material box. During the process, most of the residual water in the feeding hopper and on the meat will pass through the surface holes of the screen plate and enter the collection box for collection. The structural design can reduce unnecessary trouble for workers. Attached Figure Description

[0030] Please combine Figures 1 to 4 ,in, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of a meat product processing and cleaning machine according to the present invention; Figure 2 This is a partial structural cross-sectional view of a meat product processing and cleaning machine according to the present invention; Figure 3 This is a partial structural breakdown diagram of a meat processing and cleaning machine according to the present invention. Figure 1 ; Figure 4 This is a partial structural breakdown diagram of a meat processing and cleaning machine according to the present invention. Figure 2 A meat processing and cleaning machine includes:

[0031] The washing box 1, the extraction component 15, and the hopper component 5 are arranged inside the washing box 1. The hopper component 5 includes an upper hopper 10 and a lower hopper 11. A sliding member 19 is fixedly connected to the top edge of the lower hopper 11. The sliding member 19 is slidably connected to the bottom of the upper hopper 10. A first spring structure 12 is fixedly connected between the upper hopper 10 and the lower hopper 11. A first vibrator 13 is fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the outer surface of the lower hopper 11. The extraction component 15 is installed on the surface of the upper hopper 10.

[0032] The top of the feeding hopper 10 is hinged to the top of the washing tank 1. A bracket 7 is fixedly connected to one side wall surface of the washing tank 1. A collection box 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the bracket 7. A second spring structure 21 is fixedly connected to the left and right edges of the top surface of the bracket 7. A screen 8 is fixedly connected between the tops of several second spring structures 21. A second vibrator 22 is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom surface of the screen 8.

[0033] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the extraction component 15 includes a first communicating vessel 14, which is fixedly connected to the outer surface of one side of the feeding hopper 10. A water nozzle 20 is fixedly connected to the surface of the first communicating vessel 14 through a pipe, and the water nozzle 20 is located inside the feeding hopper 10.

[0034] In use, pour sufficient cleaning water into the cleaning tank 1 and water tank 2, and put the meat into the feeding hopper 11. At this time, turn on the water pump to draw water from the water tank 2 to the water nozzle 20. The water flow in the water nozzle 20 flows along the arc surface of the feeding hopper 11, so that the meat and cleaning water tumble together, achieving a good cleaning effect. The mesh on the surface of the feeding hopper 11 can prevent meat scraps from entering the area between the cleaning tank 1 and the hopper assembly 5. The water in the cleaning tank 1 that does not reach the water inlet 4 will be filtered by the filter screen 3 and then enter the water tank 2 for recycling.

[0035] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the first communicating vessel 14 is connected to a water pump via a hose, and a water tank 2 is fixedly connected to one side wall surface of the cleaning tank 1. The input end of the water pump is connected to the water tank 2 via a pipe.

[0036] Water tank 2 is used to store a fixed amount of cleaning water and to receive water flowing into cleaning tank 1, thereby circulating the water through a water pump.

[0037] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a water inlet 4 is provided between the water tank 2 and the cleaning tank 1, and a filter screen 3 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the water tank 2 located below the water inlet 4.

[0038] Since water needs to be pumped from water tank 2 to cleaning tank 1, when the water in cleaning tank 1 rises to the inlet 4 position, it will flow back to water tank 2 for recycling.

[0039] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a second communicating vessel 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the hopper 11, and a number of bubble nozzles 18 are fixedly connected to the top of the second communicating vessel 16. The bubble nozzles 18 are located inside the hopper 11.

[0040] When the water pump and water nozzle 20 are used to draw water from the water tank 2 to agitate the meat in the hopper 11, the air pump 6 can be turned on to supply air to several bubble nozzles 18, making the meat and water inside the hopper 11 agitate more violently.

[0041] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the second communicating vessel 16 is connected to an air pump 6 via a hose, and the air pump 6 is fixedly connected to one side wall surface of the cleaning tank 1.

[0042] A corresponding filter component can be installed on the surface of the air pump 6 to filter the drawn-in external air, thereby ensuring that the air impurities entering the cleaning chamber 1 are greatly reduced.

[0043] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the surface of the feeding hopper 11 is provided with several evenly distributed mesh holes, and an electric telescopic rod 17 is hinged between the feeding hopper 10 and the inner wall of the cleaning tank 1.

[0044] After cleaning, the electric telescopic rod 17 is opened to slowly rotate the feeding hopper 10. At this time, the water inside the feeding hopper 11 passes through the mesh and remains inside the cleaning box 1. After the feeding hopper 10 rotates to a certain extent, the meat inside will pour into the screen 8 on the inner side of the support 7. At this time, some smaller pieces of meat may stick to the mesh surface of the feeding hopper 11. The operator can start the first vibrator 13. Since the feeding hopper 10 and the feeding hopper 11 are slidably connected to each other by the sliding part 19 and are also connected by the first spring structure 12, the feeding hopper 11 can vibrate at a certain frequency, causing the smaller pieces or meat scraps attached to its surface to fall to the outside. The structural design can reduce the workload of the operators and is humanized.

[0045] The working principle of the meat product processing and cleaning machine provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0046] First step: After cleaning, open the electric telescopic rod 17 to slowly rotate the feeding hopper 10. At this time, the water inside the feeding hopper 11 passes through the mesh and remains inside the cleaning box 1. After the feeding hopper 10 rotates to a certain extent, the meat inside will pour into the screen 8 on the inner side of the support 7. At this time, some smaller pieces of meat may stick to the mesh surface of the feeding hopper 11. The staff can start the first vibrator 13. Since the feeding hopper 10 and the feeding hopper 11 are slidably connected to each other by the sliding part 19 and are also connected by the first spring structure 12, the feeding hopper 11 can vibrate at a certain frequency, causing the smaller pieces or meat scraps attached to its surface to fall to the outside. The structural design can reduce the workload of the staff and is humane.

[0047] The second step: After the feeding hopper 10 in the device is flipped, the meat inside will fall onto the surface of the screen 8. The user can place the material box on the lower side of the bottom of the screen plate and start the second vibrator 22. Since the screen 8 is fixedly connected to the bracket 7 through the second spring structure 21, the meat on its surface can slowly move down and smoothly enter the corresponding material box. During the process, most of the residual water in the feeding hopper 10 and attached to the meat will pass through the surface holes of the screen plate and enter the collection box 9 for collection. The structural design can reduce unnecessary trouble for workers.

[0048] It should be noted that the device structure and accompanying drawings of this utility model mainly describe the principle of this utility model. In terms of the technical aspects of this design principle, the setting of the power mechanism, power supply system and control system of the device is not fully described. However, under the premise that those skilled in the art understand the principle of the above utility model, the specific details of its power mechanism, power supply system and control system can be clearly understood. The control method in the application document is automatic control through a controller. The control circuit of the controller can be implemented by those skilled in the art through simple programming.

[0049] All standard parts used can be purchased from the market, and can be customized according to the instructions and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the existing technology. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the existing technology, and the structure and principle of the components known to those skilled in the art can be known by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods.
