Description

A kimchi cutting device Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, specifically to a kimchi cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] In some kimchi processing techniques, kimchi is cut into small pieces using a cutting device before being placed in a kimchi jar for pickling. Existing cutting devices include a triangular box with an L-shaped plate vertically positioned on the rear side of the inclined surface. The upper surface of the inclined surface is concave, forming a rectangular groove running through both the upper and lower surfaces of the box. A triangular block is located at the bottom of the box's interior, with a fixed end for an electric push rod on its upper inclined surface. The movable end of the electric push rod connects to a triangular cutter. The lower surface of the horizontal portion of the L-shaped plate is concave, forming a triangular groove. A rectangular box is located at the right end of the L-shaped plate, with a motor at its right end. The movable end of the motor passes through the rectangular box and extends to the left inner wall of the box. Multiple cutters are equidistantly positioned outside the movable end of the motor. The left surface of the rectangular box is concave to the right, forming a rectangular groove running through both the left and right surfaces. This design uses a triangular cutter to cut vegetables, improving cutting efficiency.

[0003] Existing cutting devices have the following problems: they are not convenient for continuous cutting of kimchi and have low cutting efficiency.

[0004] Based on the above situation, there is an urgent need for a kimchi cutting device to solve the problem of low cutting efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem that existing cutting devices are not convenient for continuous cutting of kimchi and have low cutting efficiency.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A kimchi cutting device, comprising:

[0008] The conveying mechanism includes drive rollers and driven rollers arranged at intervals;

[0009] A cutting mechanism is located below the conveying mechanism;

[0010] A guide channel is provided between the conveying mechanism and the cutting mechanism;

[0011] A collection trough is located below the cutting mechanism.

[0012] Existing cutting devices are not convenient for continuous cutting of kimchi and have low cutting efficiency. In this solution, the kimchi is clamped by the active roller and the driven roller and conveyed to the guide channel. Then, the cutting mechanism cuts the part that extends out of the guide channel. As the conveying mechanism continuously conveys kimchi, it can automatically cut the kimchi into small pieces and collect them in the collection trough, realizing continuous cutting of kimchi and solving the problem of low cutting efficiency.

[0013] Furthermore, this solution does not exclusively limit the specific structure of the cutting mechanism. One feasible solution is that the cutting mechanism includes a gearbox and a cutting blade is mounted on the low-speed shaft of the gearbox. When this solution is adopted, the gearbox is driven, thereby driving the cutting blade to rotate, so as to continuously cut the kimchi.

[0014] Furthermore, to facilitate fixing the cutting spacing, one feasible solution is as follows: the drive roller is connected to a rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is connected to a motor. A driven sprocket is mounted on the gearbox, and a drive sprocket is mounted on the rotating shaft. A chain is provided between the drive sprocket and the driven sprocket. When this solution is adopted, the motor drives the drive roller and the gearbox to rotate simultaneously. Since the chain drive has a constant transmission ratio, the speed ratio between the drive roller and the cutting blade can remain unchanged, thereby fixing the cutting spacing. The cutting spacing can be changed by adjusting the gearbox.

[0015] Furthermore, to facilitate clamping the kimchi, one feasible solution is that the driven roller is connected to a clamping assembly for pushing the driven roller towards the driving roller. When this solution is adopted, pressure is applied to the kimchi through the clamping assembly, thereby clamping the kimchi and preventing slippage between the kimchi and the driving roller during the cutting process.

[0016] Furthermore, this solution does not exclusively limit the specific structure of the clamping assembly. One feasible solution is that the clamping assembly includes a guide rod connected to the driven roller and the guide rod is connected to a spring. When this solution is adopted, the driven roller is pushed to the driving roller by the spring, which is simple in structure and easy to maintain.

[0017] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the entry of kimchi into the guide channel during the transportation process, one feasible solution is to form an expansion section at the upper end of the guide channel. When this solution is adopted, the expansion section facilitates the entry of kimchi into the guide channel.

[0018] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] 1. The kimchi is held by the active roller and the driven roller and conveyed to the guide channel. Then the cutting mechanism cuts the part that extends out of the guide channel. As the conveying mechanism continuously conveys the kimchi, it can automatically cut the kimchi into small pieces, realizing continuous cutting of kimchi and solving the problem of low cutting efficiency.

[0020] 2. Since the cutting mechanism includes a gearbox and a cutting blade is mounted on the low-speed shaft of the gearbox, the gearbox is driven to rotate the cutting blade, so as to continuously cut the kimchi.

[0021] Third, since the active roller is connected to a rotating shaft and the rotating shaft is connected to a motor, a driven sprocket is installed on the gearbox, an active sprocket is installed on the rotating shaft, and a chain is provided between the active sprocket and the driven sprocket. The motor drives the active roller and the gearbox to rotate simultaneously. Since the chain drive has a constant transmission ratio, the speed ratio between the active roller and the cutting blade can remain unchanged, thereby fixing the cutting distance. The cutting distance can be changed by adjusting the gearbox. Attached Figure Description

[0033] It should be noted that relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the term "comprising" or any other variations thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes the element.

[0034] The features and performance of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.

[0035] Example:

[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 and 2. A kimchi cutting device includes:

[0037] The conveying mechanism 1 includes a driving roller 11 and a driven roller 12 arranged at intervals;

[0038] Cutting mechanism 2 is located below conveying mechanism 1;

[0039] Guide channel 3 is located between conveying mechanism 1 and cutting mechanism 2;

[0040] Collection groove 4 is located below cutting mechanism 2.

[0041] Existing cutting devices are not convenient for continuous cutting of kimchi and have low cutting efficiency. In this solution, the kimchi is clamped by the active roller 11 and the driven roller 12 and conveyed to the guide channel 3. Then, the cutting mechanism 2 cuts the part that extends out of the guide channel 3. As the conveying mechanism 1 continuously conveys the kimchi, it can be automatically cut into small pieces and fall into the collection tank 4 for centralized collection, realizing continuous cutting of kimchi and solving the problem of low cutting efficiency.

[0042] Referring to Figure 2, this solution does not limit the specific structure of the cutting mechanism 2. One feasible solution is that the cutting mechanism 2 includes a gearbox 21 and a cutting blade 22 is mounted on the low-speed shaft of the gearbox 21. When this solution is adopted, the gearbox 21 is driven, thereby driving the cutting blade 22 to rotate, so as to continuously cut the kimchi.

[0043] Referring to Figures 3 and 5, one feasible solution for facilitating the fixing of the cutting spacing is as follows: the drive roller 11 is connected to the rotating shaft 13, and the rotating shaft 13 is connected to the motor 14. The driven sprocket 23 is mounted on the gearbox 21, and the drive sprocket 15 is mounted on the rotating shaft 13. A chain 16 is provided between the drive sprocket 15 and the driven sprocket 23. When this solution is adopted, the motor 14 drives the drive roller 11 and the gearbox 21 to rotate simultaneously. Since the chain drive has a constant transmission ratio, the speed ratio between the drive roller 11 and the cutting blade 22 can remain unchanged, thereby fixing the cutting spacing. The cutting spacing can be changed by adjusting the gearbox 21.

[0044] Referring to Figure 1, in order to facilitate clamping the kimchi, one feasible solution is: the driven roller 12 is connected to a clamping component 5 for pushing the driven roller 12 toward the driving roller 11. When this solution is adopted, pressure is applied to the kimchi by the clamping component 5, thereby clamping the kimchi and preventing the kimchi from sliding between the kimchi and the driving roller 11 during the cutting process.

[0045] Referring to Figure 4, this solution does not limit the specific structure of the pressing assembly 5. One feasible solution is that the pressing assembly 5 includes a guide rod 51 connected to the driven roller 12 and the guide rod 51 is connected to a spring 52. When this solution is adopted, the driven roller 12 is pushed to the driving roller 11 by the spring 52, which is simple in structure and easy to maintain.

[0046] Preferably, in this embodiment, the guide rod 51 passes through the sleeve 53. When this solution is adopted, the guide rod 51 can be kept horizontal by the limiting effect of the sleeve 53.

[0047] Referring to Figure 2, in order to facilitate the entry of kimchi into the guide channel 3 during the transportation process, one feasible solution is to form an expansion section 31 at the upper end of the guide channel 3. When this solution is adopted, the kimchi is facilitated to enter the guide channel 3 under the action of the expansion section 31.

[0048] To address the issue of low cutting efficiency, this solution involves using an active roller 11 and a driven roller 12 to clamp and transport the kimchi to a guide channel 3. Subsequently, the cutting mechanism 2 cuts the portion extending out of the guide channel 3. As the conveying mechanism 1 continuously transports the kimchi, it can be automatically cut into small segments, achieving continuous cutting of the kimchi and solving the problem of low cutting efficiency.

[0049] In order to facilitate continuous cutting of kimchi, in this solution, the cutting mechanism 2 includes a gearbox 21 and a cutting blade 22 is mounted on the low-speed shaft of the gearbox 21. By driving the gearbox 21, the cutting blade 22 is driven to rotate, so as to facilitate continuous cutting of kimchi.

[0050] To facilitate fixing and adjusting the cutting spacing, in this design, the drive roller 11 is connected to a rotating shaft 13, which is connected to a motor 14. A driven sprocket 23 is mounted on the gearbox 21, and a drive sprocket 15 is mounted on the rotating shaft 13. A chain 16 is provided between the drive sprocket 15 and the driven sprocket 23. The motor 14 drives the drive roller 11 and the gearbox 21 to rotate simultaneously. Since the chain drive has a constant transmission ratio, the speed ratio between the drive roller 11 and the cutting blade 22 can remain unchanged, thereby fixing the cutting spacing. The cutting spacing can be changed by adjusting the gearbox 21.

[0051] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Therefore, the invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
