Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of pig slaughtering and processing equipment, and in particular to a pig slaughtering and dehairing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Pig slaughtering is the process of processing live pigs into meat products. Dehairing is a necessary step in the pig slaughtering process. Current technology typically uses manual scraping, which involves first treating the pig with high-temperature steam or soaking it in hot water, then scraping off the hair with a scraper; or using a flamethrower to smoke the hair on the pig's surface until it forms black clumps, followed by cleaning with a high-pressure water gun. However, because a large number of pigs are processed daily during pig slaughtering, manual scraping or dehairing with hand tools is inefficient, time-consuming, and physically demanding due to the labor involved in handling the pigs. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of pig hair removal and reduce the labor intensity of hair removal operations, this application provides a pig slaughtering and hair removal device.

[0004] The technical solution adopted in this application for a pig slaughtering and dehairing equipment is as follows:

[0005] A pig slaughtering and dehairing device includes a frame, on which hooks for hanging pig bodies are provided, and a lifting mechanism is provided on the frame, on which a dehairing mechanism for cleaning pig hair is installed.

[0006] The depilatory mechanism includes an annular plate, a thrust bearing mounted on the annular plate, and an annular brush plate mounted on the thrust bearing. The inner side of the annular brush plate is provided with bristles, and the annular plate is provided with a drive mechanism for driving the annular brush plate to rotate. The axis of the annular brush plate coincides with that of the thrust bearing.

[0007] A further technical solution is that the lifting mechanism is either a pneumatic cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder.

[0008] A further technical solution is that the driving mechanism includes a motor and a main gear disposed on the output shaft of the motor, and a toothed ring that meshes with the main gear is disposed on the outer peripheral surface of the annular brush plate.

[0009] A further technical solution is that: multiple positioning gears are provided on the annular plate, and the positioning gears are meshed with the toothed ring.

[0010] A further technical solution is that the hair removal mechanism also includes a nozzle, a water pipe, a water pump, and a water tank. Multiple nozzles are provided and are evenly arranged circumferentially on the annular plate. The water pipe connects the multiple nozzles, the water pump, and the water tank.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:

[0012] The rapidly rotating ring-shaped brush plate can clean pig hair 360°. Combined with the up-and-down movement of the lifting device, it can clean the pig hair from the front, effectively reducing the labor intensity of operators in removing pig hair. Furthermore, due to its simple structure, the ring-shaped brush plate can be easily cleaned after dehairing for future use. Attached Figure Description

[0018] To make the technical problem to be solved, the technical solution, and the beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0019] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "fixing," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances. Furthermore, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified. "Several" means one or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0020] The technical solutions in this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] This application discloses a pig slaughtering and dehairing device. Please refer to... Figures 1-3 The device includes a frame 1, on which hooks 2 for hanging pigs are provided, and a lifting mechanism 3 is provided on the frame 1, on which a dehairing mechanism for cleaning pig hair is installed.

[0022] The depilatory mechanism includes an annular plate 41, a thrust bearing 42 mounted on the annular plate 41, and an annular brush plate 43 mounted on the thrust bearing 42. The inner surface of the annular brush plate 43 is provided with bristles 44. A drive mechanism for rotating the annular brush plate 43 is provided on the annular plate 41. The axis of the annular brush plate 43 coincides with that of the thrust bearing 42, and it is located directly below the hook 2.

[0023] In practice, the pig is suspended on hook 2, the lifting device is activated to push the ring plate 41 up and put it on the pig. At this time, the brush on the ring brush plate 43 is in contact with the pig. The drive mechanism is activated to drive the ring brush plate 43 to rotate quickly, so that the brush can brush down the pig hair at this height. Then the lifting device drives the hair removal mechanism to slowly descend, so that the pig hair on the whole body can be cleaned.

[0024] As can be seen from the above structure and specific implementation process, the rapidly rotating annular brush plate 43 can clean pig hair 360°. Combined with the up-and-down movement of the lifting device, it can clean the front of the pig hair, effectively reducing the labor intensity of operators in removing pig hair. Moreover, after completing the hair removal operation, the annular brush plate 43, due to its relatively simple structure, can be easily cleaned of pig hair for the next use.

[0025] For details, please refer to Figure 3The annular plate 41 includes an upper annular plate 411 and a lower annular plate 412. Ear plates 413 are provided on both opposite sides of the upper annular plate 411 and the lower annular plate 412, and are fixedly connected by bolts. The movable end of the lifting mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to the ear plates 413. Two thrust bearings 42 are provided, respectively disposed on the upper annular plate 411 and the lower annular plate 412. The annular brush plate 43 is pressed and fixed between the two thrust bearings 42, so that the annular brush plate 43 can rotate horizontally.

[0026] The driving mechanism includes a motor 51 and a gear mounted on the output shaft of the motor 51. A toothed ring 53 that meshes with the gear is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the annular brush plate 43. Specifically, the motor 51 is fixedly mounted on the upper ring plate 411, and its output shaft passes through the upper ring plate 411 and connects to the main gear 52. The motor 51 drives the main gear 52 and the toothed ring 53 to rotate, thereby causing the annular brush plate 43 to rotate.

[0027] Furthermore, the annular plate 41 is provided with a plurality of positioning gears 54, which mesh with the gear ring 53. The positioning gears 54 are rotatably connected between the upper annular plate 411 and the lower annular plate 412. The plurality of positioning gears 54 are equally spaced from the main gear 52 and are used to fix the position of the annular brush plate 43 to prevent it from shifting in the horizontal direction.

[0028] The lifting mechanism 3 is either a pneumatic cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder. Two lifting devices are provided, which abut against both ends of the annular plate 41 respectively, to evenly bear the weight on the annular plate 41.

[0029] Reference Figure 4 Furthermore, the hair removal mechanism also includes a nozzle 61, a water pipe 62, a water pump 63, and a water tank 64. Multiple nozzles 61 are provided and are evenly arranged circumferentially on the annular plate 41. The water pipe 62 connects the multiple nozzles 61, the water pump 63, and the water tank 64.

[0030] Water pump 63 draws water from water tank 64, creating a large water pressure that sprays out from nozzle 61. Nozzle 61 is circumferentially arranged on annular plate 41, which can wash all parts of the pig's body and can move up and down with annular plate 41. After the annular brush plate 43 removes hair from the pig's body, high-pressure water can be sprayed from nozzle 61 to rinse away any remaining pig hair, further improving the efficiency and effectiveness of hair removal.

[0031] In the description of the above embodiments, specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.

[0032] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
