Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of potato processing technology, specifically to a potato slicing device that facilitates feeding. Background Technology
[0002] A potato slicer is a mechanical device used for cutting food, mainly for cutting root vegetables such as potatoes. The potato slicer slices by rotating a blade, which can ensure a smooth cut without burrs and without damaging the fibrous structure of the food.
[0003] Currently, some potato slicers require workers to place potatoes into the hopper, which then transports them to the slicer for slicing. However, this method of placing potatoes one by one is laborious and can affect slicing efficiency. Furthermore, due to the hard texture of potatoes, they can easily get stuck in the hopper during the slicing process. Workers can press the potatoes to assist in feeding, but this process is dangerous and lacks safety. During this process, the hopper opens directly outwards, and some potato pieces can splatter outwards during pressing, potentially injuring nearby workers. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a convenient potato slicing device for feeding, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a potato slicing device for convenient feeding, comprising a slicer body and a feeding hopper installed on the surface of the slicer body, and further comprising:
[0006] A support plate is fixedly connected to the top of the slicer body. The top of the support plate is provided with an adjustment mechanism and a movable plate is slidably connected thereto. The top of the movable plate is provided with a feed chute and a through chute on both sides respectively.
[0007] A storage bin is fixedly connected to the top of the moving plate, and the storage bin is correspondingly arranged with the feed trough. A reset mechanism is installed on the top of the moving plate, and a sleeve is provided at the bottom of the reset mechanism. A crushing mechanism is installed inside the sleeve.
[0008] Preferably, the adjustment mechanism includes a vertical plate, a lead screw, and an adjustment plate. There are two vertical plates, which are respectively fixedly connected to the two sides of the top of the support plate. One end of the lead screw is rotatably connected to the surface of one side of the vertical plate, and the lead screw rotatably passes through the other side of the vertical plate. The adjustment plate is threaded onto the surface of the lead screw. The bottom of the adjustment plate is slidably connected to the top of the support plate, and the surface of the adjustment plate is fixedly connected to the surface of the movable plate.
[0009] Preferably, the reset mechanism includes a guide rod, a reset plate, and a compression spring. The guide rod is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate, the reset plate slides through the surface of the guide rod, the two ends of the compression spring are fixedly connected to the top of the support plate and the bottom of the reset plate, respectively, and the sleeve is fixedly connected through the bottom of the reset plate.
[0010] Preferably, the compaction mechanism includes a rotating shaft, a connecting rod, a pressure plate, and a turntable. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sleeve, the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft, the pressure plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod, and the turntable is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating shaft. The bottom of the turntable is rotatably connected to the top of the sleeve.
[0011] Preferably, arc-shaped plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the rotating shaft, and a crossbar is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the arc-shaped plates, with the crossbar fixedly passing through the connecting rod.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] In use, this invention allows workers to place several potatoes in a storage bin for subsequent slicing. When the slicing process is slow, workers can press the reset plate, which lowers the crushing mechanism via the sleeve, facilitating the pressing of the potatoes with the pressure plate. When the blockage is severe, workers can rotate the turntable to crush the potatoes with the pressure plate, allowing for better feeding. During this process, the moving plate continuously shields the top of the feed hopper, increasing safety. This invention solves the problems of current potato slicing devices, where feeding is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the safety of pressing potatoes when the feed hopper is blocked is compromised.

[0022] 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.
[0023] Please see Figure 1-6 As shown, a potato slicing device for convenient feeding includes a slicer body 1 and a feeding hopper 2 installed on the surface of the slicer body 1 and connected to the slicer body 1. A support plate 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the slicer body 1. An adjustment mechanism 4 is provided on the top of the support plate 3 and a moving plate 5 is slidably connected thereto. A feeding groove and a through groove are respectively opened on both sides of the top of the moving plate 5. A storage bucket 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the moving plate 5. The storage bucket 6 is correspondingly arranged with the feeding groove. A reset mechanism 7 is installed on the top of the moving plate 5. A sleeve 8 is provided at the bottom of the reset mechanism 7. Extension plates 9 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the sleeve 8. The surface of the extension plate 9 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the through groove. A limit plate 10 is fixedly connected to the surface of the extension plate 9. The surface of the limit plate 10 is in contact with the inner wall of the through groove. By setting the limit plate 10, the extension plate 9 can be limited, thereby limiting the sleeve 8. A crushing mechanism 11 is installed inside the sleeve 8.
[0024] The adjustment mechanism 4 includes a vertical plate 41, a lead screw 42, and an adjustment plate 43. There are two vertical plates 41, which are fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 3 on both sides. One end of the lead screw 42 is rotatably connected to the surface of one vertical plate 41, and the lead screw 42 rotates through the other vertical plate 41. The adjustment plate 43 is threaded onto the surface of the lead screw 42, and the bottom of the adjustment plate 43 is slidably connected to the top of the support plate 3. The surface of the adjustment plate 43 is fixedly connected to the surface of the moving plate 5. When the operator rotates the lead screw 42, the adjustment plate 43 moves the moving plate 5 accordingly, so that the operator can move and adjust the position of the reset mechanism 7 and the storage bucket 6 according to the slicing status during the slicing operation.
[0025] The reset mechanism 7 includes a guide rod 71, a reset plate 72, and a compression spring 73. The guide rod 71 is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 3. The reset plate 72 slides through the surface of the guide rod 71. The two ends of the compression spring 73 are fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 3 and the bottom of the reset plate 72, respectively. The sleeve 8 is fixedly connected through the bottom of the reset plate 72. When the operator presses the reset plate 72, the sleeve 8 will descend. Then, under the action of the spring force of the compression spring 73, the reset plate 72 will lift the sleeve 8 to reset. At this time, the limiting plate 10 and the extension plate 9 cooperate to limit the lifting height of the sleeve 8.
[0026] The crushing mechanism 11 includes a rotating shaft 111, a connecting rod 112, a pressure plate 113, and a turntable 114. The rotating shaft 111 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 8. The connecting rod 112 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft 111. The pressure plate 113 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 112. The turntable 114 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating shaft 111. The bottom of the turntable 114 is rotatably connected to the top of the sleeve 8. When the operator rotates the turntable 114, the connecting rod 112 can be rotated through the rotating shaft 111. The pressure plate 113 rotates accordingly to crush the potato pieces, so as to help the potato pieces enter the interior of the feed hopper 2. Arc-shaped plates 12 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the rotating shaft 111. A crossbar 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the arc-shaped plate 12. The crossbar 13 is fixedly inserted through the connecting rod 112. The arrangement of the arc-shaped plate 12 and the crossbar 13 can increase the stability of the connecting rod 112.
[0027] Working principle: After the operator places the potatoes to be sliced into the storage bin 6, the potatoes can pass through the moving plate 5 under the action of gravity and fall into the feed hopper 2. At this time, the slicer body 1 can slice the potatoes. During this process, when the potato slicing speed slows down, the operator can rotate the screw 42, and the adjusting plate 43 drives the moving plate 5 to move. The storage bin 6 moves away from the top of the feed hopper 2. At this time, the reset mechanism 7 moves to the top of the feed hopper 2. Then the operator can press the reset plate 72, and the sleeve 8 drives the rotating shaft 111 to descend. The connecting rod 112 drives the pressure plate 113 to descend, which can press the potato pieces accumulated in the feed hopper 2 so that the potato pieces can enter the slicer body 1 better to cooperate with the slicing process. When the feed hopper 2 is blocked, the operator can rotate the turntable 114. The rotating shaft 111 drives the connecting rod 112 to rotate, and the pressure plate 113 rotates to crush the blocked potato pieces in the feed hopper 2, thereby adjusting the stuck potato pieces so that the potato pieces can be fed in better.
