[0023] 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.
[0024] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0025] Please see the appendix Figures 1 to 2 As shown: A bag-cutting machine for edible mushroom bags includes a frame 1 and a conveying device 2 centrally mounted on the frame 1. The bag-cutting machine for edible mushroom bags also includes:
[0026] The bag-lifting device 3 is vertically mounted directly above the conveying device 2, used to grab and lift the mushroom bags conveyed by the conveying device 2.
[0027] The bag-cutting mechanism 4 is movably mounted between the bag-lifting device 3 and the conveying device 2, and is used to cut the bag opening after the bag-lifting device 3 has been lifted twice. Adjacent bag-cutting mechanisms 4 are arranged in opposite directions of movement.
[0028] The bag-cutting mechanism 4 includes a bag-cutting base 41; a first driving source 42 is fixedly mounted on the bag-cutting base 41; a bag-cutting bracket is movably mounted on the bag-cutting base 41; the first driving source 42 can drive the bag-cutting bracket to move back and forth; and cutting components 43 are arranged in an array on one side of the bag-cutting bracket.
[0029] The aforementioned bag-lifting device and bag-cutting mechanism automate the bag-cutting process for edible mushroom bags, significantly improving efficiency. Compared to manual bag cutting, it drastically reduces working time and increases production efficiency. The secondary lifting function of the bag-lifting device ensures the bags are in the correct position and condition before cutting, allowing the cutting mechanism to perform more accurate cutting operations and improving the quality and consistency of the cutting. The opposite movement directions of adjacent bag-cutting mechanisms make the cutting process more stable and efficient, enabling simultaneous cutting of multiple bags and further enhancing overall work efficiency.
[0030] Based on the above embodiments, the first driving source 42 is a servo motor; the servo motor is mounted on the bag-cutting base 41 via a motor mounting bracket; and a gear is detachably mounted on the output end of the servo motor.
[0031] The T-shaped bag-cutting bracket is provided with a rack that meshes with the gear;
[0032] The cutting component 43 includes a cutting cylinder fixed on the bag cutting bracket; one end of the cutting cylinder is connected to a cutting seat; the cutting seat is rotatably provided with a first blade and a second blade arranged in a cross pattern; the cutting cylinder can drive the first blade / second blade to swing to complete the cutting.
[0033] The aforementioned servo motor serves as the primary drive source, providing precise power output and enabling accurate control of the bag-cutting bracket, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the bag-cutting mechanism during operation. The gear at the servo motor's output meshes with the rack on the bag-cutting bracket. This transmission method is simple in structure and highly efficient, converting the servo motor's rotational motion into the linear reciprocating motion of the bag-cutting bracket, ensuring reliable operation of the bag-cutting mechanism. The design of the cutting components allows the cutting cylinder to drive the first and second blades to swing and complete the cutting. This simple and easily controllable structure enables rapid and accurate cutting of the bag opening. Furthermore, the cross-arranged blade design better adapts to bags of different shapes and thicknesses, improving the versatility of the bag-cutting mechanism.
[0034] Based on the above embodiments, the bag-carrying device 3 includes a bag-carrying bracket 31 mounted on a bag-cutting base 41; a lifting cylinder 32 is provided at the top of the bag-carrying bracket 31; a bag-carrying connecting seat 33 is movably inserted on the bag-carrying bracket 31; a second lifting cylinder 34 is symmetrically provided at the bottom of the bag-carrying connecting seat 33; a bag-carrying seat 35 is movably inserted on the bag-carrying connecting seat 33; the second lifting cylinder 34 can drive the bag-carrying seat 35 to move back and forth; and a bag-mouth clamping finger cylinder 36 is arranged in an array on one side of the bag-carrying seat 35.
[0035] The multi-stage lifting structure design of the aforementioned bag-lifting device, through the coordinated operation of the lifting cylinder and the second lifting cylinder, enables precise lifting and positioning of the mushroom bags, ensuring a stable position for the bags during the cutting process and improving the accuracy and quality of the cutting. The array of bag-mouth clamping finger cylinders on one side of the bag-lifting seat firmly grips the bag mouth, preventing slippage or detachment during lifting and cutting, thus ensuring operational safety and reliability. The entire bag-lifting device features a compact and rational structural design, with tight connections and cooperation between all components, enabling efficient and stable operation and providing strong support for the overall performance of the bag-cutting machine.
[0036] Based on the above embodiments, the conveying device 2 is a chain conveying mechanism; the chain conveying mechanism is provided with an array of material blocking components that can move back and forth in the vertical direction.
[0037] The aforementioned chain conveyor mechanism, as a conveying device, has advantages such as stable conveying, strong load-bearing capacity, and high reliability. It can continuously and stably convey mushroom bags, ensuring the continuous operation of the bag-cutting machine. The array of material-blocking components on the chain conveyor mechanism, which can move back and forth vertically, can precisely control the conveying position and rhythm of the mushroom bags, ensuring that each bag can accurately stop below the bag-cutting mechanism for the bag-cutting operation, thus improving the working efficiency and accuracy of the bag-cutting machine.
[0038] Based on the above embodiments, the frame 1 is equipped with a controller 5, which is electrically connected to the conveying device 2, the bag lifting device 3, and the bag cutting mechanism 4.
[0039] The controller mounted on the frame is electrically connected to the conveying device, bag-lifting device, and bag-cutting mechanism, enabling automated control of the entire bag-cutting machine. The controller allows for convenient setting and adjustment of the operating parameters of each component, such as conveying speed, lifting height, and bag-cutting position, improving the machine's ease of operation and flexibility. The controller can monitor and adjust the machine's operation in real time, ensuring that each component operates according to predetermined programs and parameters, promptly identifying and resolving potential problems, thus improving the machine's stability and reliability and reducing the possibility of human intervention and operational errors.
[0040] The operation of this invention is as follows: The mushroom bag is placed on a chain conveyor mechanism, which transports the bag to a designated position. A material-blocking component rises to prevent the bag from moving further. The lifting cylinder of the bag-lifting device drives the bag-lifting connecting seat to descend, and the bag-mouth clamping finger cylinder opens to grip the bag mouth. Then, the lifting cylinder raises the bag to a certain height, completing the first lift. Next, the second lifting cylinder drives the bag-lifting seat to rise, performing a second lift to position the bag mouth at a suitable cutting position. The controller controls the first drive source to move the bag-cutting bracket, bringing the cutting component closer to the bag mouth. The cutting cylinder drives the first and second blades to swing, cutting the bag mouth. After cutting, the bag-mouth clamping finger of the bag-lifting device releases, and the lifting cylinder and second lifting cylinder drive the bag-lifting seat to descend. The material-blocking component descends, and the chain conveyor mechanism transports the cut bag away, allowing for the next bag cutting operation. The automated bag-lifting and bag-cutting operations described above significantly improve the bag-cutting speed, increasing efficiency several times compared to manual bag cutting, thus meeting the needs of large-scale edible fungi production.
