Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing equipment manufacturing technology, and in particular to a vegetarian roll feeding machine and a vegetarian roll cutting and spreading device including the same. Background Technology

[0002] Gluten skewers are a common street food and barbecue ingredient. They are usually made primarily of gluten and seasoned with cumin powder, chili powder, salt, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, pepper powder, five-spice powder, sweet bean sauce, steamed fish soy sauce, oyster sauce, and other spices to enhance their flavor.

[0003] After the vegetarian rolls are cut and spread out, a manual skewering process is performed to form vegetarian roll skewers. The vegetarian roll cutting and spreading equipment mainly consists of a frame, a vegetarian roll feeding mechanism, and a vegetarian roll cutting mechanism. The vegetarian roll feeding mechanism continuously supplies vegetarian rolls to the vegetarian roll cutting mechanism. In existing technology, the vegetarian roll feeding mechanism includes a conveyor and a feeding mechanism. During the operation of the conveyor, the vegetarian rolls pass through the feeding mechanism, and excess vegetarian rolls are fed in batches to the vegetarian roll cutting mechanism. However, in actual operation, it has been found that the vegetarian rolls are often damaged or cut off. The reason is that the feeding blade of the feeding mechanism is made of hard material, and the feeding force applied to the vegetarian rolls is a rigid force. Therefore, it is urgent for technicians to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, in view of the above-mentioned existing problems and defects, the designers of this utility model collected relevant information, conducted multiple evaluations and considerations, and carried out continuous experiments and modifications by technical personnel with many years of R&D experience in this industry, which ultimately led to the emergence of this vegetarian roll feeding machine.

[0005] This utility model relates to a vegetarian roll feeding machine, including a steep-angle lifting conveyor and a brushing mechanism. During the operation of the steep-angle lifting conveyor, the vegetarian rolls pass through the brushing mechanism and are supplied in batches to a vegetarian roll cutting machine. The brushing mechanism includes a brushing component, a rotating shaft, and a power unit. The rotating shaft spans the steep-angle lifting conveyor and is driven by the power unit. The brushing component is sleeved and fixed on the rotating shaft. During its circumferential rotational motion synchronized with the rotating shaft, excess vegetarian rolls are brushed away by a non-rigid brushing force.

[0006] As a further improvement to the technical solution disclosed in this utility model, the material brushing component is composed of N support frames and 2N material brushing assemblies. The support frames serve as the connecting transition between the material brushing assemblies and the rotating shaft, and are detachably fixed to the rotating shaft. After the material brushing assembly is assembled relative to the support frames, it undergoes adaptive yaw motion when subjected to a reverse material brushing force.

[0007] As a further improvement to the technical solution disclosed in this utility model, the material-flushing assembly includes a first material-flushing plate, a first bolt and nut assembly, and an elastic element. The first material-flushing plate is detachably assembled with the support frame by means of the first bolt and nut assembly. The elastic element is placed between the first material-flushing plate and the support frame, and is penetrated by the first bolt and nut assembly. During the period when the first material-flushing plate is subjected to a reverse material-flushing force, the elastic element undergoes adaptive deformation due to the pressure force.

[0008] As a further improvement to the technical solution disclosed in this utility model, the elastic element is preferably a rubber sleeve or a columnar spring, and its design length does not exceed 15mm.

[0009] Of course, as another modified design of the above technical solution, the material-flushing assembly includes a second material-flushing plate and a second bolt and nut assembly. The second material-flushing plate is sequentially composed of a fixing section, an elastic deformation section, and a material-flushing section connected together. The fixing section is in contact with the support frame and is connected by the second bolt and nut assembly. During the period when the material-flushing section is subjected to a reverse material-flushing force, the elastic deformation section undergoes adaptive elastic deformation.

[0010] As a further improvement to the technical solution disclosed in this utility model, the elastic deformation section is a continuous folding structure, and the second brush plate is formed by wire cutting.

[0011] As a further improvement to the technical solution disclosed in this utility model, the support frame has a sheet metal bending structure, which is sequentially formed by connecting a first outer arm, an intermediate connecting part, and a second outer arm. Both the first and second outer arms serve as the assembly base for two independent material handling components. The intermediate connecting part is composed of M intermediate connecting arms arranged linearly along the length of the support frame. The intermediate connecting arms are in contact with the rotation shaft and are all connected by a third bolt and nut assembly.

[0012] Furthermore, this utility model also discloses a vegetarian roll cutting and spreading device, which includes the aforementioned vegetarian roll feeding machine.

[0013] In practical applications, the vegetarian roll feeding machine disclosed in this utility model can achieve at least the following beneficial technical effects, specifically:

[0014] 1) Under the continuous action of the brushing mechanism, excess vegetarian rolls are brushed off and returned to the subsequent feeding process, ensuring that the number of vegetarian rolls supplied each time meets the requirements, thus laying a good foundation for the subsequent vegetarian roll cutting machine to perform the spreading and cutting operation smoothly; furthermore, the remaining vegetarian rolls are able to correct their own posture due to the brushing force of the brushing mechanism, ensuring that their posture meets the expected requirements when they are fed into the vegetarian roll cutting machine, thereby ensuring that the cut formed on them has good regularity and consistency.

[0015] 2) Thanks to the non-rigid brushing force design, it can effectively prevent excess vegetarian rolls from being damaged due to excessive squeezing, collision or friction during the brushing process;

[0016] 3) The working parameters of the feeding mechanism can be flexibly adjusted according to the specific production line conditions. For example, the operating speed of the feeding component can be adjusted by changing the drive speed of the power unit, or different feeding components can be used according to the specific shape and specifications of the vegetarian roll being fed, so as to ensure that the feeding force meets the expected requirements and has strong adaptability and adjustability.

Detailed Implementation

[0028] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "left", "right", "front", "back", "up", "down", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0029] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. Figure 1 , Figure 2 The diagrams show two different states of the vegetarian roll slicing and spreading equipment disclosed in this utility model. It can be seen that it mainly consists of a frame 1, a hopper 2, a vegetarian roll feeding mechanism 3, a vegetarian roll cutting mechanism 4, and a discharge box (not shown). The hopper 2, the vegetarian roll feeding mechanism 3, and the vegetarian roll cutting mechanism 4 are all supported by the frame 1 and arranged sequentially along the upstream and downstream direction. The hopper 2 is used to hold vegetarian rolls in batches, and the vegetarian rolls are continuously supplied to the vegetarian roll cutting mechanism 4 under the conveying force from the vegetarian roll feeding mechanism 3. The discharge box is placed on the ground to receive the vegetarian rolls that have been cut by the vegetarian roll cutting mechanism 4.

[0030] Depend on Figure 2 As clearly shown, the vegetarian roll feeding machine 3 includes a steep-angle lifting conveyor 31 and a material brushing mechanism 32. The steep-angle lifting conveyor 31 mainly consists of a conveyor belt, side guards, and plastic partitions. Two adjacent plastic partitions and two opposing side guards work together to form a receiving space to accommodate vegetarian rolls in batches. During the operation of the steep-angle lifting conveyor 31, vegetarian rolls are transferred in batches from the hopper 2 to the receiving space, pass through the material brushing mechanism 32, and are then supplied in batches to the vegetarian roll cutting machine 4.

[0031] like Figure 3As shown, the brushing mechanism 32 mainly consists of a brushing component 321, a rotating shaft 322, and a geared motor 323. The rotating shaft 322 spans the steep-angle lifting conveyor 31 and is driven by the geared motor 323. The brushing component 321 is fitted onto and fixed to the rotating shaft 322. During its synchronous circumferential rotational motion with the rotating shaft 322, excess raw material rolls that have exceeded the receiving space are brushed away by a non-rigid brushing force. Thus, on the one hand, under the continuous action of the brushing mechanism 32, excess vegetarian rolls are brushed off and returned to the secondary storage space, ensuring that the number of vegetarian rolls supplied each time meets the requirements, thereby laying a good foundation for the subsequent smooth unfolding and cutting operation of the vegetarian roll cutting machine 4; on the other hand, the remaining vegetarian rolls are able to correct their own posture due to the brushing force of the brushing mechanism 32, ensuring that their posture meets the expected requirements when they are fed into the vegetarian roll cutting machine, thereby ensuring that the cut formed on them has good regularity and consistency; furthermore, thanks to the non-rigid brushing force design, the phenomenon of excess vegetarian rolls being damaged due to excessive compression, collision or friction during the brushing process is effectively prevented.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, the brushing component 321 is composed of two support frames 3211 and four brushing assemblies 3212. The support frames 3211 serve as the connecting transition between the brushing assemblies 3212 and the rotating shaft 322. Figures 5-7 As shown, the material brushing assembly 3212 includes a first material brushing plate 32121, a first bolt and nut assembly 32122, and a plastic sleeve 32123. The first material brushing plate 32121 is made of engineering plastic and is detachably assembled with the support frame 3211 by means of the first bolt and nut assembly 32122. The plastic sleeve 32123 is placed between the first material brushing plate 32121 and the support frame 3211, and is penetrated by the first bolt and nut assembly 32122. In practical applications, when the first material brushing plate 32121 is subjected to a reverse material brushing force, the plastic sleeve 32123 undergoes adaptive deformation (mainly axial compression deformation) due to the pressure force. At the same time, the first material brushing plate 32121 undergoes adaptive yaw motion to ensure that excess raw material rolls are brushed off into the rear receiving space due to the non-rigid material brushing force.

[0033] like Figure 8 , Figure 9As shown, the support frame 3211 has a sheet metal bending structure, which is sequentially formed by connecting a first outer arm 32111, an intermediate connecting part 32112, and a second outer arm 32113. The first outer arm 32111 and the second outer arm 32113 both serve as the assembly base for the two independent first feed plates 32121. The intermediate connecting part 32112 is composed of three intermediate connecting arms 321121 arranged linearly along the length of the support frame 3211. Figures 5-7 As shown, the intermediate connecting arm 321121 is in contact with the rotating shaft 322 and is connected by the third bolt and nut assembly 324, while the first extension arm 32111 and the second extension arm 32113 are connected to the independent first brush plate 32121 by the first bolt and nut assembly 32122.

[0034] It is known that the elastic properties of the plastic sleeve 32123 have a key influence on the motion mode of the first brush plate 32121. In view of this, as a further optimization of the above technical solution, the plastic sleeve 32123 is preferably made of rubber or thermoplastic elastomer plastic, and its design length is controlled within 15mm.

[0035] Of course, as another modified design of the above technical solution, its difference from the above design lies in that: the material-flushing assembly 321 includes a second material-flushing plate and a second bolt and nut assembly. The second material-flushing plate is sequentially formed by connecting a fixing section, an elastic deformation section, and a material-flushing section. The elastic deformation section is a continuous folding structure, formed by wire cutting of the second material-flushing plate. The fixing section is in contact with the support frame 3211 and is connected by the second bolt and nut assembly. During the period when the material-flushing section is subjected to a reverse material-flushing force, the elastic deformation section undergoes adaptive elastic deformation.

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that, thanks to the unique structural design of the brushing mechanism 32, its operating parameters can be flexibly adjusted according to the specific production line conditions in practical applications. For example, the operating speed of the brushing component 321 can be adjusted by changing the drive speed of the geared motor 323, or different brushing components 321 can be used according to the specific shape and specifications of the conveyed vegetarian rolls to ensure that the brushing force meets the expected requirements (that is, to brush off excess vegetarian rolls without damaging the rolls themselves), demonstrating strong adaptability and adjustability.
