[0029] Furthermore, a movable plate 14 is symmetrically fixedly connected to one side of the mounting frame 29, and a slide rod 13 is slidably connected inside the movable plate 14. The bottom of the slide rod 13 is fixedly connected to the mounting frame 29, and the movable plate 14 moves along the outside of the slide rod 13. A lead screw 15 is symmetrically rotatably connected to one side of the mounting frame 29, and the outside of the lead screw 15 is threadedly connected to the slide rod 13. The rotation of the lead screw 15 moves the movable plate 14.
[0030] Furthermore, a box 2 is fixedly connected inside the mounting frame 1 and below the mounting frame 29 to collect spilled salt.
[0031] Furthermore, a first connecting rod 5 is symmetrically fixedly connected to one side of the salt tank 4. The outer side of the first connecting rod 5 is slidably connected to the first connecting frame 3. A second connecting rod 6 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the side of the salt tank 4 away from the first connecting rod 5. One end of the second connecting rod 6 passes through one side of the first connecting frame 3 and is fixedly connected to a fixing plate 7. The fixing plate 7 moves, causing the second connecting rod 6 to move as well. Springs 31 are provided on the outer sides of both the first connecting rod 5 and the second connecting rod 6. When the salt tank 4, the first connecting rod 5, and the second connecting rod 6 move, they compress the springs 31. The springs 31 buffer the impact force between the salt tank 4 and the first connecting frame 3 when the salt tank 4 moves, thus preventing damage to the salt tank 4.
[0032] Furthermore, a connecting frame 30 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed frame 1, and a mounting plate 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting frame 30. The outer side of the mounting plate 8 is slidably connected to the fixed plate 7. The mounting plate 8 moves along the interior of the fixed plate 7. A connecting plate 16 is slidably connected to one side of the mounting plate 8. One end of the connecting plate 16 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 7. The movement of the connecting plate 16 moves the fixed plate 7. An eccentric wheel 17 is rotatably connected to one side of the mounting plate 8.
[0033] Furthermore, a second connecting frame 18 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate 16. The movement of the second connecting frame 18 moves the connecting plate 16. One end of the eccentric wheel 17 is slidably connected to the second connecting frame 18. The rotation of the eccentric wheel 17 moves the second connecting frame 18.
[0034] Furthermore, a first rotating rod 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the end of the eccentric wheel 17 away from the second connecting frame 18. The rotation of the first rotating rod 9 causes the eccentric wheel 17 to rotate. The bottom of the first rotating rod 9 passes through the bottom of the mounting plate 8 and is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 30. A second helical gear 20 is fixedly connected to the outside of the first rotating rod 9. The rotation of the second helical gear 20 causes the first rotating rod 9 to rotate.
[0035] Furthermore, two sets of second rotating rods 10 are fixedly connected to both sides of the mounting frame 29. One end of the second rotating rod 10 passes through one side of the fixing frame 1 and is fixedly connected to a first helical gear 19. The rotation of the second rotating rod 10 causes the first helical gear 19 to rotate. One side of the first helical gear 19 meshes with the second helical gear 20. The rotation of the first helical gear 19 causes the second helical gear 20 to rotate.
[0036] Furthermore, a first motor 21 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed frame 1, and one end of the second rotating rod 10 passes through one side of the fixed frame 1 and is fixedly connected to the first motor 21. When the first motor 21 is turned on, the first motor 21 drives the second rotating rod 10 to rotate.
[0037] Furthermore, a first gear 25 is fixedly connected to the outside of the conveying pipe 22. The rotation of the first gear 25 causes the conveying pipe 22 to rotate. A second motor 27 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the salt tank 4. A second gear 26 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 27. When the second motor 27 is turned on, it causes the second gear 26 to rotate. One side of the second gear 26 meshes with the first gear 25. The rotation of the second gear 26 causes the first gear 25 to rotate.
[0038] In use, place both ends of the sausage casing on the surface of the fixing rod 11 within the mounting frame 29. Rotate the lead screw 15, which moves the slide rod 13. The slide rod 13 moves the fixing frame 12 towards one side of the sausage casing, fixing the casing between the fixing frame 12 and the fixing rod 11. Turn on the first motor 21 and the second motor 27. After the first motor 21 is turned on, it rotates the second rotating rod 10 and the mounting frame 29. The rotation of the mounting frame 29 flips the sausage casing, allowing for better salting of both sides. The rotation of the second rotating rod 10 rotates the first helical gear 19, which in turn rotates the first rotating rod 9 via the second helical gear 20. The first rotating rod 9 rotates the eccentric wheel 17, which in turn moves the second connecting frame 18. The movement of the second connecting frame 18 moves the connecting plate 16. The connecting plate 16 moves back and forth, carrying the salt box 4 through the fixing plate 7 and the second connecting rod 6. When the salt box 4 moves, it compresses the spring 31, which generates elastic force. When the spring 31 loses its compressive force, it returns to its original position with the salt box 4 under the action of the elastic force. The back and forth movement of the salt box 4 allows the filter plate 28 inside the salt box 4 to better screen the salt and prevent the salt from clumping and clogging the conveying pipe 22 below the salt box 4. After the second motor 27 is turned on, it drives the second gear 26 to rotate. The second gear 26 drives the conveying pipe 22 to rotate through the first gear 25. The rotation of the conveying pipe 22 drives the salt spreading plate 23 to rotate, so that the salt in the salt box 4 enters the salt spreading plate 23 through the conveying pipe 22 and is evenly sprinkled out from the outlet 24 under the action of centrifugal force, so that the salt can be more evenly sprinkled on the surface of the sausage casing.
