Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an improved invention for konjac noodle processing equipment, and more particularly to an improved invention for a konjac noodle cutting mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Current konjac noodle cutting technology mainly employs a structure where a cutter and a grooved plate work together. After the konjac noodles enter the groove of the grooved plate through the hopper, the cutter moves forward along the grooved plate to cut them. However, this technology has the following significant drawbacks:

[0003] Problem of debris jamming: Konjac noodles are rich in sticky components. The debris generated during the cutting process can easily enter the gap between the cutter and the slot plate. Long-term accumulation can cause the cutter to jam, move poorly, and even cause equipment failure, requiring frequent shutdowns for cleaning, which seriously affects production efficiency.

[0004] High maintenance costs: The clearance between the slot plate and the cutter needs to be strictly controlled. After wear, the whole plate needs to be replaced. In addition, the metal slot plate and the cutter are prone to generating metal shavings due to long-term friction, which can contaminate the konjac noodles and does not meet the hygiene standards for food processing. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a konjac noodle cutting mechanism.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: The konjac noodle cutting mechanism includes a frame, on which a konjac noodle feeding hopper is provided. The mechanism is characterized in that: a pressure plate and a cutter are arranged vertically below the feeding hopper, and a vertically arranged pad is provided in front of the pressure plate and the cutter. The pad is detachably installed on the frame. The pressure plate and the cutter are respectively movable back and forth. The pressure plate is equipped with a first power source, and the cutter is equipped with a second power source. The pressure plate and the pad cooperate to press the material, and the cutter and the pad cooperate to cut.

[0007] The pressing area of ​​the pressure plate is provided with a groove, and a pressing gap is formed between the corresponding pressure plate and the pad.

[0008] The pad is made of plastic or silicone.

[0009] Both the first power source and the second power source are cylinders, and the cylinders are equipped with mounting plates, which are fixed to the frame.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are that the improved konjac noodle cutting mechanism adopts a direct cutting combination of a cutter and a vertical pad, replacing the traditional slotted plate structure. This avoids the problem of fragments accumulating in the gaps, reduces equipment failures, improves the stability of continuous operation, and increases production efficiency. At the same time, the konjac noodles are pre-pressed onto the pad by the pressure plate to ensure that the noodles are fixed and do not shift during cutting. The slotted design of the pressure plate's pressing area forms a pressing gap, which can not only firmly clamp the konjac noodles, but also avoid excessive compression that could cause the noodles to deform. Attached Figure Description

[0011] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0012] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model.

[0013] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the hidden frame side plate structure of this utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0014] The accompanying drawings illustrate the structure of this utility model, and further details will be described below with reference to the drawings. In this embodiment, see the attached drawings. Figure 1-2 The konjac noodle cutting mechanism includes a frame 1, on which a konjac noodle feeding hopper 2 is provided. A konjac noodle conveying mechanism is connected above the feeding hopper 2. Below the feeding hopper 2, a pressure plate 3 and a cutter 4 are arranged vertically. A vertically arranged pad 5 is provided in front of the pressure plate 3 and the cutter 4. The pad 5 is detachably installed on the frame 1. The pressure plate 3 and the cutter 4 can be moved back and forth respectively. The pressure plate 3 is equipped with a first power source 6, and the cutter 4 is equipped with a second power source 7. The pressure plate 3 and the pad 5 cooperate to press the material, and the cutter 4 and the pad 5 cooperate to cut the material.

[0015] As a further improvement, the pressing area of ​​the pressing plate 3 is provided with a groove, and a pressing gap is formed between the pressing plate 3 and the pad 5, which can not only firmly clamp the konjac noodles, but also avoid excessive compression that could cause the noodles to deform.

[0016] As a further improved embodiment, the pad 5 is made of plastic or silicone, which has high chemical stability, is not easy to leave residues, and has a detachable design for easy cleaning, disinfection and replacement. Compared with metal trays, plastic / silicone pads 5 have moderate wear resistance, reduce replacement costs, and avoid the risk of metal contamination.

[0017] As a further improved specific implementation, both the first power source 6 and the second power source 7 are cylinders. The cylinders are equipped with mounting plates 8, which are fixed on the frame 1. Using cylinders as power sources results in fast response speed and short single-cut cycle.

[0018] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Konjac noodles are conveyed to the lower working area through the feeding hopper 2 on the frame 1 and fall to the cutting position between the pressure plate 3 and the pad 5; the first power source 6 drives the pressure plate 3 to move forward, and the slot of the pressing area of ​​the pressure plate 3 contacts the vertical pad 5 to form a pressing gap, which clamps the konjac noodles flat on the surface of the pad 5 to prevent the noodles from sliding or lifting during cutting; the second power source 7 drives the cutter 4 to move forward, and the blade of the cutter 4 is in contact with the surface of the pad 5 to quickly cut the konjac noodles fixed by the pressure plate 3; since the pad 5 is made of plastic or silicone, the blade can be slightly embedded in the surface of the pad 5 to ensure a thorough cut without residue; after cutting, the cutter 4 and the pressure plate 3 are reset under the drive of the cylinder, and the cut konjac noodles fall to the knotting process; the pad 5 can be disassembled and replaced periodically according to the wear condition to ensure stable cutting effect. Through the coordinated action of "pressing first and then cutting", the mechanism achieves efficient and precise cutting of konjac noodles, while solving problems such as debris jamming and maintenance difficulties in traditional technology, and is suitable for large-scale konjac noodle processing scenarios.

[0019] In summary, the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
