Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of red chili pepper production, and in particular to a red chili pepper cutting device with a roller blade cleaning function. Background Technology
[0002] The red chili pepper cutting device is a specialized piece of equipment used in food processing to automatically cut red chili peppers. It cuts the peppers into uniform segments using rotating blades or serrated blades. Equipped with an automatic feeding system and safety protection devices, it can efficiently process large batches of chili peppers, improve processing efficiency, and ensure product consistency and hygiene standards. It is suitable for food factories, catering enterprises, and condiment production lines.
[0003] The existing red chili pepper cutting device lacks the function of automatic spacing adjustment. Because of the lack of automatic spacing adjustment, when it is necessary to frequently switch chili varieties, it is necessary to constantly adjust the spacing of the limit plates, which leads to increased workload and slower production pace.
[0004] Therefore, given that the existing red chili cutting devices lack automatic spacing adjustment and require constant adjustments when frequently switching chili varieties, leading to increased workload and slower production pace, there is an urgent need to design a new type of red chili cutting device with roller cleaning function. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the problem that the existing red chili cutting device lacks the function of automatically adjusting the spacing, and needs to be constantly adjusted when frequently switching chili varieties, resulting in increased workload and slower production pace.
[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a red chili pepper cutting device with roller blade cleaning function, including a conveyor belt; it also includes a mounting base, a guide rod, limiting plates, a scissor-type folding frame, a sliding frame, a first motor, a first lead screw, a slide block, a rotating shaft, a connecting column, and a fiber cloth. Mounting bases are installed on both sides of the upper middle position of the conveyor belt, and a guide rod is connected between the two mounting bases. Four limiting plates are slidably connected to the outer surface of the guide rod. A scissor-type folding frame is installed on the upper end of the right mounting base, and the upper ends of the four limiting plates are connected to the lower ends of the scissor-type folding frame. The upper part of the conveyor belt... A sliding frame is installed on the front side of the two mounting seats. A first motor is installed on the left end of the sliding frame. The output end of the first motor passes through the left end of the sliding frame and is connected to a first lead screw. The right end of the first lead screw is rotatably connected to the right side of the inside of the sliding frame. A slide block is threaded onto the outer surface of the first lead screw. The rear end of the slide block is connected to the upper front end of the leftmost limiting plate. A rotary shaft is installed on the front left side of the inside of the conveyor belt. A connecting column is installed on the lower front end of the leftmost limiting plate. A fiber cloth is connected to the outer surface of the rotary shaft. The other end of the fiber cloth is connected to the outer surface of the connecting column.
[0007] Preferably, by setting a first motor, the first motor drives the first lead screw to rotate. When the first lead screw rotates, it restricts the rotation of the slide block through the sliding frame, thereby driving the slide block to move. When the slide block moves, it drives the leftmost limiting plate to move. When the leftmost limiting plate moves, it drives the other three limiting plates to move at equal intervals through a scissor-type folding frame, thereby automatically adjusting the distance between the limiting plates. Then, by setting a connecting column, when the leftmost limiting plate moves, it drives the connecting column to move. When the connecting column moves, it pulls out the fiber cloth. Then, by setting a rotary shaft, it fixes and retracts the other end of the fiber cloth. With the cooperation of the connecting column and the rotary shaft, the fiber cloth forms a retractable barrier wall, thereby preventing peppers from escaping from the inner wall of the conveyor belt and the leftmost limiting plate. This achieves the purpose of automatically adjusting the distance, solving the problem that the existing red pepper cutting device lacks the function of automatically adjusting the distance. Because of the lack of automatic distance adjustment function, when it is necessary to frequently switch pepper varieties, it is necessary to constantly adjust the distance between the limiting plates, which leads to increased workload and slower production pace.
[0008] Preferably, a symmetrical lifting frame is installed on the upper rear side of the conveyor belt. A second motor is installed on the upper end of the left lifting frame. The output end of the second motor passes through the upper end of the left lifting frame and is connected to a second lead screw. The lower end of the second lead screw is rotatably connected to the upper end of the conveyor belt. A main slider is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the second lead screw. A pressure plate is installed on the right end of the main slider.
[0009] Preferably, a limit rod is installed at the upper inner end of the right lifting frame, and a secondary slider is slidably connected to the outer surface of the limit rod. The left end of the secondary slider is connected to the right end of the pressure plate.
[0010] Preferably, a third motor is installed on the rear left side of the conveyor belt, and the output end of the third motor passes through the left end of the conveyor belt and is connected to the roller cutter body.
[0011] Preferably, a connecting plate is installed at the rear right side of the upper end of the conveyor belt, and an electric push rod is installed at the right end of the connecting plate. The telescopic end of the electric push rod passes through the right end of the connecting plate and is connected to a brush plate.
[0012] Preferably, mounting plates are installed on both the left and right sides of the rear end of the conveyor belt, and a scraper is installed between the two mounting plates.
[0013] Preferably, support legs are installed at the four corners of the lower end of the conveyor belt, and support feet are installed at the lower end of the support legs.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. The first motor drives the first lead screw to rotate, causing the sliding frame to constrain the lower slide seat to produce linear displacement. When the leftmost limiting plate moves in conjunction with the sliding plate, the scissor-type folding frame synchronously drives the other three limiting plates to achieve equal spacing adjustment. The connecting column unfolds the fiber cloth as the left limiting plate moves, and cooperates with the rotating shaft of the recycled fiber cloth to form a retractable barrier wall, effectively preventing the chili peppers from escaping from the gap between the conveyor belt and the limiting plates. This structure achieves synchronous automatic spacing adjustment of the four limiting plates through the first motor drive, adapting to the sorting needs of materials of different specifications. The innovative use of the scissor-type linkage mechanism ensures that the spacing between each limiting plate is accurately and equally divided. The fiber cloth barrier wall and the limiting mechanism work together to form a dynamic sealing system, effectively reducing the material loss rate. The entire device achieves fully automatic adjustment through mechanical linkage, significantly improving the working efficiency and adaptability of the chili pepper sorting line.

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0024] Please see Figures 1-6 This utility model provides an embodiment of a red chili pepper cutting device with roller blade cleaning function, including a conveyor belt 1; it also includes a mounting base 2, a guide rod 3, a limiting plate 4, a scissor-type folding frame 5, a sliding frame 6, a first motor 7, a first lead screw 8, a slide block 9, a rotating shaft 10, a connecting column 11, and a fiber cloth 12. Mounting bases 2 are installed on both sides of the upper middle position of the conveyor belt 1, and a guide rod 3 is connected between the two mounting bases 2. Four limiting plates 4 are slidably connected to the outer surface of the guide rod 3. A scissor-type folding frame 5 is installed on the upper end of the right mounting base 2. The upper ends of the four limiting plates 4 are all connected to the lower ends of the scissor-type folding frame 5. A sliding frame 6 is installed on the upper end of the conveyor belt 1 in front of the two mounting seats 2. A first motor 7 is installed on the left end of the sliding frame 6. The output end of the first motor 7 passes through the left end of the sliding frame 6 and is connected to a first lead screw 8. The right end of the first lead screw 8 is rotatably connected to the inner right side of the sliding frame 6. A slide block 9 is threaded onto the outer surface of the first lead screw 8. The rear end of the slide block 9 is connected to the upper front end of the leftmost limiting plate 4. A rotary shaft 10 is installed on the front left side of the inner left end of the conveyor belt 1. A connecting post 11 is installed on the lower front end of the leftmost limiting plate 4. A fiber cloth 12 is connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft 10, and the other end of the fiber cloth 12 is connected to the outer surface of the connecting post 11. A first motor 7 is provided. When the first motor 7 runs, it drives the first lead screw 8 to rotate. When the first lead screw 8 rotates, it restricts the rotation of the slide block 9 through the sliding frame 6, thereby driving the slide block 9 to move. When the slide block 9 moves, it drives the leftmost limiting plate 4 to move. When the leftmost limiting plate 4 moves, it drives the other three limiting plates 4 to move at equal angles through the scissor-type folding frame 5. The spacing is moved to automatically adjust the spacing between the limit plates 4. Then, by setting a connecting column 11, when the leftmost limit plate 4 moves, the connecting column 11 is driven to move. When the connecting column 11 moves, it will pull out the fiber cloth 12. Then, by setting a rotary shaft 10, the other end of the fiber cloth 12 is fixed and retracted. With the cooperation of the connecting column 11 and the rotary shaft 10, the fiber cloth 12 forms a retractable barrier wall, thereby preventing chili peppers from escaping from the inner wall of the conveyor belt 1 and the leftmost limit plate 4, thus achieving the purpose of automatically adjusting the spacing.
[0025] Please see Figures 1-5In this embodiment, a symmetrical lifting frame 13 is installed on the upper rear side of the conveyor belt 1. A second motor 14 is installed on the upper end of the left lifting frame 13. The output end of the second motor 14 passes through the upper end of the left lifting frame 13 and is connected to a second lead screw 15. The lower end of the second lead screw 15 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the conveyor belt 1. A main slider 16 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the second lead screw 15. A pressure plate 17 is installed on the right end of the main slider 16. By setting the second motor 14, the second motor 14 drives the second lead screw 15 to rotate. When the second lead screw 15 rotates, the rotation of the main slider 16 is restricted by the left lifting frame 13, thereby driving the main slider 16 to move. When the main slider 16 moves, it drives the pressure plate 17 to move, thereby achieving the purpose of pressing peppers of different sizes and assisting in cutting. A limit switch is installed on the upper inner part of the right lifting frame 13. A secondary slider 19 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the rod 18 and the limiting rod 18. The left end of the secondary slider 19 is connected to the right end of the pressure plate 17. By setting the secondary slider 19, since the secondary slider 19 is connected to the pressure plate 17, the secondary slider 19 moves when the pressure plate 17 moves. The limiting rod 18 restricts the degree of freedom of the secondary slider 19, thereby providing support for the other side of the pressure plate 17, thus achieving the purpose of assisting the movement of the pressure plate 17. A third motor 20 is installed on the rear left side of the conveyor belt 1. The output end of the third motor 20 passes through the left end of the conveyor belt 1 and is connected to the roller cutter body 21. By setting the third motor 20, the roller cutter body 21 is rotated when the third motor 20 runs. When the roller cutter body 21 rotates, it drives the blades around it to rotate. Each time a blade rotates from the upper side to the lower side, it can cut one side, thereby achieving the purpose of cutting the chili pepper.
[0026] Please see Figures 1-6 In this embodiment, a connecting plate 22 is installed at the rear right side of the upper end of the conveyor belt 1. An electric push rod 23 is installed at the right end of the connecting plate 22. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 23 passes through the right end of the connecting plate 22 and is connected to a brush plate 24. By setting the electric push rod 23, when the electric push rod 23 is running, it drives the brush plate 24 to move. When the brush plate 24 moves, it will brush the surface of the roller cutter body 21, thereby achieving the purpose of cleaning the roller cutter body 21. Mounting plates 25 are installed on both the left and right sides of the rear end of the conveyor belt 1. A scraper 26 is installed between the two mounting plates 25. A scraper 26 is provided, which contacts the surface of the conveyor belt 1 during operation, thereby scraping away chili residue on the surface of the conveyor belt 1 to achieve the purpose of cleaning the conveyor belt 1. Support legs 27 are installed at the four corners of the lower end of the conveyor belt 1, and support feet 28 are installed at the lower end of the support legs 27. By setting the support legs 27, a stable support base is provided, which can maintain stability during operation. By setting the support feet 28, the support feet 28 are usually large in area, which can increase the contact area with the ground, thereby reducing the pressure per unit area.
[0027] During operation, the support legs 27 and feet 28 provide stable support for the installation of the entire equipment. When cutting chili peppers, the first motor 7 is started by the external controller to adjust the spacing between the limit plates 4 to a suitable distance, thereby restricting the chili peppers to be cut vertically. During this period, the fiber cloth 12 will dynamically adjust its length through the movement of the limit plates 4 to prevent chili peppers from entering the prescribed route. Then, the second motor 14 is started to work with the limit rod 18 and the auxiliary slider 19 to adjust the spacing between the pressure plate 17 and the conveyor belt 1 to a suitable size, thereby providing downward pressure on the chili peppers to facilitate subsequent cutting. After all adjustments are completed, the third motor 20 is started to rotate the roller cutter body 21. Then, the chili peppers are placed on the conveyor belt 1 and allowed to flow and be cut by themselves. In addition, when the roller cutter body 21 is cutting, the electric push rod 23 is also started to clean the surface of the roller cutter body 21 with the brush plate 24, and the scraper 26 is equipped to clean the chili peppers remaining on the conveyor belt.
[0028] Through the above steps, after the first motor 7 starts, it drives the first lead screw 8 to generate rotational motion. When the first lead screw 8 rotates, the sliding frame 6 constrains the rotational freedom of the slide block 9, forcing the slide block 9 to generate linear displacement along a predetermined trajectory. During the movement of the slide block 9, the leftmost limiting plate 4 is pulled to move synchronously. The limiting plate 4 transmits power to the other three limiting plates 4 in sequence through the rigidly connected scissor-type folding frame 5, realizing that the four limiting plates 4 maintain a constant interval and move in the same direction to expand or contract. During this process, the connecting column 11 fixedly connected to the leftmost limiting plate 4 moves with the movement to gradually unfold the fiber cloth 12. At the same time, the rotating shaft 10 maintains the tension of the fiber cloth 12. The device stably and efficiently stores excess fabric. Through the coordinated operation of the connecting column 11 and the rotating shaft 10, the unfolded fiber cloth 12 forms a flexible barrier between the limiting plate 4 and the side wall of the conveyor belt 1, effectively blocking the movement of chili materials through the leakage channel between the conveyor belt 1 and the limiting plate 4. The entire mechanical linkage device achieves the dual functions of material blocking and spacing adjustment through pure mechanical transmission, solving the problem that the existing red chili cutting device lacks the function of automatic spacing adjustment. Because of the lack of automatic spacing adjustment function, when it is necessary to frequently switch chili varieties, it is necessary to constantly adjust the spacing of the limiting plate 4, which leads to increased workload and slower production pace.
