Detailed Implementation

[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 4 As shown, the present invention discloses an eel steaming machine, comprising a first steaming line 1, a second steaming line 4, a steam generating mechanism, and a sorting mechanism 5. The first steaming line 1 and the second steaming line 4 are both connected to the steam generating mechanism at their middle parts. One end of the first steaming line 1 and the second steaming line 4 are provided with a feed inlet, and the other end of the first steaming line 1 and the second steaming line 4 are provided with a discharge outlet. The feed inlet of the first steaming line 1 is connected to the feed inlet of the second steaming line 4 through the sorting mechanism 5.

[0029] The sorting mechanism 5 includes a frame 507, a moving component, an electronic scale 508, and a pushing component. The feed inlet of the first cooking line 1 is connected to the feed inlet of the second cooking line 4 through the frame 507. The moving component is provided at the lower part of the frame 507 and is drivenly connected to the lower part of the electronic scale 508. The pushing component is provided at the upper part of the frame 507 and is movably connected to the upper part of the electronic scale 508.

[0030] The feeding assembly includes a first linear drive 509, a first slider 504, and a lifting and pushing assembly. The upper part of the frame 507 is provided with a first slide groove 501 adapted to the first slider 504. The first slider 504 is slidably connected to the first slide groove 501. The first linear drive 509 is drivenly connected to the first slider 504. The lifting and pushing assembly is connected to the first slider 504 and is movably connected to the upper part of the electronic scale 508.

[0031] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In actual production, when it is necessary to steam or cook the slaughtered eels, the operator can place the eels on the electronic scale 508 to weigh them. Then, based on the weight of the eels, the moving component is activated. If the eels are heavy, the moving component will move the eels closer to the feed inlet of the first steaming line 1. When the eels move to one side of the first steaming line 1, the first linear drive 509 can be activated, causing the first linear drive 509 to adjust the position of the lifting and pushing component appropriately according to the position of the electronic scale 508. The device moves, and then operates the lifting and pushing component, which lowers the lifting and pushing component to the top of the electronic scale 508. Then, the first linear drive 509 continues to operate, causing the first linear drive 509 to drive the lifting and pushing component to push the eel into the first steaming line 1 for steaming. If the eel is small, the moving component will carry the eel to the second steaming line 4 and push it into the second steaming line 4 for steaming. When it is necessary to weigh and move the next eel, the lifting and pushing component will be reset first to make subsequent weighing better. The steaming time of the first steaming line 1 is longer than the steaming time of the second steaming line 4.

[0032] Furthermore, the lifting and pushing assembly includes a second linear drive 502, a slide bar 503, a lifting frame 505, and a push plate 506. The lifting frame 505 is slidably connected to the first slider 504 via several slide bars 503. The second linear drive 502 is detachably connected to the upper part of the first slider 504. The second linear drive 502 is linearly driven connected to the upper part of the lifting frame 505. The push plate 506 is provided at the lower part of the lifting frame 505, and the push plate 506 is movably connected to the upper part of the electronic scale 508.

[0033] As can be seen from the above description, after the electronic scale 508 weighs the eel, the moving component moves the eel to the side of the appropriate first cooking line 1 or second cooking line 4. Then, the first linear drive 509 is activated, which moves the lifting and pushing component to a suitable position. Then, the second linear drive 502 is activated, which drives the push plate 506 to descend through the lifting frame 505, so that the lower surface of the push plate 506 is lowered to the upper surface of the electronic scale 508. Then, the first linear drive 509 is activated again, which drives the push plate 506 to push the eel into the first cooking line 1 or second cooking line 4.

[0034] Furthermore, the moving component includes a rotation drive, a transmission belt 510, a screw 513, and a second slider 511. The lower part of the frame 507 is provided with a second slide groove 512 adapted to the second slider 511. The second slider 511 is slidably connected to the second slide groove 512. The screw 513 passes through the middle of the second slider 511 and is rotatably connected to the frame 507. The rotation drive is driven by the transmission belt 510 and the screw 513. The bottom of the electronic scale 508 is connected to the top of the second slider 511.

[0035] As can be seen from the above description, when it is necessary to weigh the eel, the eel can be placed on the electronic scale 508, and then the electronic scale 508 weighs the eel to obtain its weight. Then, the rotation drive is activated, which drives the screw 513 to rotate through the transmission belt 510. The screw 513 drives the electronic scale 508 to move through the second slider 511, so that the eel on the electronic scale 508 is moved to the side of the appropriate cooking line. The eel is then pushed into the appropriate cooking line for cooking by the lifting push component and the first linear drive component 509.

[0036] Furthermore, the first cooking line 1 and the second cooking line 4 have the same structure;

[0037] The first steaming line 1 includes a conveyor 3 and a steaming tank 2. One end of the steaming tank 2 is provided with the feed inlet, and the other end of the steaming tank 2 is provided with the discharge outlet. The conveyor 3 passes through the feed inlet and the discharge outlet and is connected to the steaming tank 2. One steaming tank 2 is connected to another steaming tank 2 through the frame 507. The middle part of each steaming tank 2 is connected to the steam generating mechanism.

[0038] As can be seen from the above description, it is advantageous to push the eel onto the conveyor 3 after it has been weighed, and then run the conveyor 3 to transport the eel through the feed inlet to the steaming chamber 2, so that the steam generated by the steam generator can steam the eel. The steaming time of the eel in the steaming chamber 2 can be controlled by controlling the running speed of the conveyor 3.

[0039] Furthermore, the height of the upper surface of the electronic scale 508 is higher than the height of the upper surface of the conveyor 3.

[0040] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial for the eels on the electronic scale 508 to be pushed onto the conveyor 3 for transport.

[0041] Furthermore, the steam generating mechanism includes a steam generator 8 and a steam inlet pipe 9. Each of the fish steaming chambers 2 has a steam inlet in the middle, and the steam generator 8 is connected to the steam inlet through the steam inlet pipe 9.

[0042] As can be seen from the above description, when the eel needs to be steamed, the steam generated by the steam generator 8 enters the steaming chamber 2 through the steam pipe 9, so that the eel is steamed when it passes through the steaming chamber 2.

[0043] Furthermore, it also includes a baffle 6, which is provided on the side of the feed inlet away from the selection mechanism 5, and the baffle 6 is connected to the outside of the steaming chamber 2.

[0044] As can be seen from the above description, the baffle 6 helps to prevent the eel from being pushed out of the conveyor 3.

[0045] Furthermore, it also includes a PLC controller, which is electrically connected to the first cooking line 1, the second cooking line 4, the steam generating mechanism, and the sorting mechanism 5, respectively.

[0046] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial to adjust the parameters of the eel steaming machine through the PLC controller, and makes it more convenient for operators to operate the eel steaming machine.
