Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to industrial processing equipment for food, specifically to a screening and collecting device for an egg roll cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] Egg rolls, as a snack food, are made from flour, egg liquid and white sugar as the main ingredients. They are made by mixing them into a batter and then baking them. Generally, egg rolls need to be cut after they are baked to a semi-set state to ensure that they are aesthetically pleasing and easy to eat.

[0003] Cutting is a crucial step in egg roll production, affecting not only the roll's appearance but also production efficiency and product quality. Traditional egg roll cutting is mostly done manually, which is inefficient and prone to breakage, resulting in high waste and reduced product quality. With the development of food industrialization, mechanized egg roll cutting equipment has emerged, improving production efficiency. However, this equipment often generates significant amounts of debris and scraps after cutting. If these debris and scraps are not promptly sifted, they can easily mix into the finished egg rolls, affecting their taste and quality and increasing the difficulty and cost of subsequent packaging.

[0004] Therefore, it is particularly important to design a device that can sieve and collect the scraps and offcuts after egg rolls are cut. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a screening and collecting device for an egg roll cutting device. The device is set at the discharge position of the egg roll cutting device to simultaneously receive the finished egg rolls after cutting and the generated scraps and offcuts, and to separate the finished egg rolls from the scraps and offcuts, so as to solve the defects in the above-mentioned technical background.

[0006] The technical problem solved by this utility model is achieved by the following technical solution:

[0007] A screening and collecting device for an egg roll cutting device includes a hopper, the hopper body having a discharge slope, and an assembly structure provided at the front end of the hopper body. The hopper is connected to the discharge port of the egg roll cutting device through the assembly structure.

[0008] The hopper is also equipped with a screening inclined surface assembly on the upper inner side of the hopper body; the screening inclined surface assembly includes two guide rollers arranged opposite each other, the two guide rollers are arranged along the width direction of the hopper, and a number of flexible unloading belts are arranged on the guide rollers in a tensioned manner. The flexible unloading belts are arranged parallel and spaced on the two guide rollers. The width of a single flexible unloading belt and the spacing between adjacent flexible unloading belts are both smaller than the size of the cut egg roll.

[0009] The hopper has two feed inlets, one at the top and one at the bottom. The feed inlet at the front of the screening inclined plate is used to receive the finished egg rolls after cutting, while the feed inlet at the front of the feeding inclined plate is used to receive the scraps and offcuts after cutting.

[0010] As a further limitation, the hopper body is made of stainless steel, and the surface of the discharge ramp is polished to improve the smoothness of the discharge and reduce the adhesion of materials during the discharge process.

[0011] As a further limitation, the assembly structure is one or a combination of plug-in structure, snap-fit ​​structure, and threaded connection structure.

[0012] As a further limitation, a sealing gasket or sealing strip is provided at the joint between the hopper and the discharge port of the egg roll cutting device to prevent debris and scraps generated during the cutting process from getting stuck in the joint or leaking out from the joint.

[0013] As a further limitation, the guide roller and the flexible unloading belt are made of food-grade material.

[0014] As a further limitation, one of the two guide rollers extends out of the hopper on the outside and is connected to a drive motor. The drive motor drives the guide roller to rotate through a transmission mechanism, thereby driving the flexible unloading belt to circulate.

[0015] As a further limitation, the angle between the material discharge slope and the horizontal plane is 45-75°, and the angle between the screening slope component and the horizontal plane is 15-45°. This design is conducive to the sliding and screening of the corresponding material, while avoiding the accumulation and retention of material on the slope.

[0016] As a further limitation, the two guide rollers of the screening inclined plane assembly are mounted on a rigid support and can be completely disassembled on the hopper through the rigid support; the flexible unloading belt can be disassembled and replaced on the frame structure composed of the two guide rollers and the rigid support after disassembly, and by replacing the flexible unloading belts of different sizes and quantities, it can meet the screening requirements of egg rolls of different sizes.

[0017] The rigid support is a telescopic support, which can adjust the distance between the two guide rollers by extending and retracting the support.

[0018] The hopper body has guide grooves formed on its side wall, and the rigid support has matching guide rods at the corresponding guide groove positions. The guide rods are equipped with threaded clamping mechanisms. When the rigid support is assembled, the inner side is fixedly hinged, and the outer side is assembled into the guide groove through the guide rods. The inclination of the screening inclined assembly can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the guide rods in the guide groove.

[0019] Beneficial effects: This utility model provides a screening and collection device for egg roll cutting equipment. By setting a screening inclined surface component inside the hopper for auxiliary screening, it can effectively separate the finished egg rolls from the scraps and offcuts, ensuring the purity and integrity of the finished egg rolls. At the same time, it facilitates the centralized collection and processing of scraps and offcuts, reduces the labor intensity of manual screening, and improves the production efficiency and quality of egg rolls.

[0020] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the assembly structure of a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

[0021] The components include: 1. Frame; 2. Egg roll cutting machine main unit; 3. Tray unit; 4. Egg roll blank; 5. Cutting disc; 6. Feed hopper body; 7. Rigid support; 8. Guide roller; 9. Flexible unloading belt; 10. Guide rod frame; 11. Feeding slope; 12. Side guard; 13. Guide groove. Detailed Implementation

[0022] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the following description, in conjunction with specific illustrations, further elaborates on this utility model.

[0023] See Figure 1 A preferred embodiment of a screening and collecting device for an egg roll cutting device. In this embodiment, the screening and collecting device is located at the end of the main body 1 of the egg roll cutting machine. The main body 1 of the egg roll cutting machine includes a chain belt driven by a sprocket. Tray units 3 are spaced apart on the chain belt. The tray units 3 have placement grooves that match the egg roll blanks 4.

[0024] The egg roll blanks 4, which are placed in the tray unit 3, are sequentially fed into the cutting disc 5 by the chain belt. After being cut by the cutting disc 5, the finished egg rolls and the scraps and offcuts generated by cutting will fall into the screening and collection device for screening and then be output separately.

[0025] In order to achieve the above functions, the screening and collection device mainly consists of a discharge hopper body 6 and a screening inclined surface assembly. The discharge hopper body 6 is an inclined hopper structure formed by stainless steel plate, including a discharge inclined surface 11 and side baffles 12 on both sides. The discharge inclined surface 11 and the side baffles 12 together form a semi-enclosed structure.

[0026] The outer side of the hopper body 6 is an open surface, allowing materials entering the hopper body 6 to smoothly slide down the discharge ramp 11 to the collection area below. In order to improve the smoothness of material discharge from the discharge ramp 11 and reduce material adhesion during the discharge process, the angle between the discharge ramp 11 and the horizontal plane is controlled between 45° and 75°, and its surface is also polished.

[0027] The inner side of the hopper body 6 is assembled and connected to the egg roll cutting machine host 2 through an assembly structure. In different embodiments, the corresponding assembly structure can be a plug-in structure, a snap-fit ​​structure, or a threaded connection structure, so as to facilitate the quick assembly, disassembly, and positioning of the hopper body 6 on the egg roll cutting machine host 2.

[0028] In addition, a sealing gasket is installed at the joint between the hopper body 6 and the discharge port of the egg roll cutting machine 2 to prevent debris and scrap generated during the cutting process from leaking from the joint, thus ensuring the effectiveness and cleanliness of the screening and collection device.

[0029] A screening inclined plane assembly is installed on the upper inner side of the hopper body 6. Figure 1 The embodiments shown are illustrated by the dashed box:

[0030] In this embodiment, the screening inclined plane assembly consists of a rigid support 7, guide rollers 8, and a flexible unloading belt 9. The rigid support 7 is a telescopic frame support, with axial assembly positions for the guide rollers reserved on both sides of its vertical telescopic edge, so that the guide rollers 8 can be fixedly assembled at these axial assembly positions. The rigid support 7 has outwardly extending guide rods 10 formed on both outer sides of the telescopic edge, and the guide rods 10 are provided with threaded clamping mechanisms. Correspondingly, the side blocks 12 on both sides are formed with guide grooves 13 that match the guide rods 10. At the same time, the inner sidewall of the side blocks 12 is also reserved with hinged assembly positions that match one side of the rigid support 7.

[0031] After the two guide rollers 8 are assembled on the rigid support 7, multiple flexible unloading belts 9 are fitted along the length of the guide rollers 8. These flexible unloading belts 9 are made of food-grade materials, such as food-grade silicone belts or food-grade rubber belts, and have good flexibility and wear resistance, and are easy to clean and disinfect. During assembly, the flexible unloading belts 9 are arranged on the two guide rollers 8 in a tensioned manner and are set in parallel at intervals.

[0032] In this embodiment, the bandwidth of a single flexible unloading belt 9 and the spacing between adjacent flexible unloading belts 9 are both smaller than the size of the cut egg roll, so as to ensure that the finished egg roll can fall smoothly into the gap between the flexible unloading belts 9, while the debris and scraps will be blocked by the flexible unloading belts 9 and slide down to the lower unloading slope.

[0033] In this embodiment, the rigid support 7 is configured as a telescopic frame, which can be used to adjust the overall length of the screening inclined plane assembly on the one hand, and on the other hand, to adjust the tension of the flexible unloading belt 9 between the two guide rollers 8.

[0034] In another embodiment, the guide roller 8 can be configured as an actively rolling material guiding structure. The two ends of the guide roller 8 are respectively mounted in the bearing mounting seats on both sides, and the outer side of one of the guide rollers 8 extends out of the hopper body 6 and is connected to a drive motor. The drive motor drives the guide roller 8 to rotate through a transmission mechanism, such as belt drive or gear drive, thereby driving the flexible unloading belt 9 to circulate on the two guide rollers 8.

[0035] In this embodiment, the screening and collection device requires the assembly of the screening inclined plane assembly first. After the screening inclined plane assembly is assembled, the inner side of the rigid support 7 is hinged and assembled using the hinge assembly position reserved on the inner side wall of the side baffle 12. Then, the guide rod frame 10 set on the rigid support 7 cooperates with the guide groove 13 formed on the side baffle 12. The angle between the screening inclined plane assembly and the horizontal plane is adjusted to between 15° and 45° according to the characteristics of the corresponding egg roll. The threaded clamping mechanism set on the guide rod frame 10 is used to clamp and fix it, ensuring the stability and reliability of the screening inclined plane assembly during use.

[0036] After the screening inclined plane assembly is completed, the screening and collecting device is installed at the discharge port of the egg roll cutting device. The assembly structure enables quick positioning and fixed assembly. The screening and collecting device assembled at the discharge port of the egg roll cutting device has two feed ports, upper and lower. The feed port on the front side of the screening inclined plane assembly receives the dropping point of the cut finished egg rolls, while the feed port on the front side of the dropping inclined plane 11 receives the dropping point of the cut debris and scraps, and receives the cutting debris and scraps that fall from the gap between the chain belt and the tray unit 3 during the cutting process of the egg roll cutting machine main unit 2.

[0037] During use, the scraps and offcuts generated from cutting the egg roll blank 4 will fall into the waste collection area at the end of the hopper body 6. The finished egg roll will slide smoothly into the finished product collection area at the end of the hopper body 6 through the guidance of the flexible unloading belt 9 on the screening inclined surface assembly. During this process, a small amount of scraps mixed in with the finished egg roll will also fall onto the unloading inclined surface 11 as the finished egg roll moves and shakes on the flexible unloading belt 9. Finally, they will be sent into the waste collection area together through the guidance of the unloading inclined surface 11.

[0038] When process adjustments are required, the screening ramp assembly can be completely disassembled from the hopper body 6. Then, by adjusting parameters such as the bandwidth and spacing of the flexible unloading belt 9 and the slope of the screening ramp assembly, it can adapt to the screening requirements of egg rolls of different sizes, thus improving the applicability and flexibility of the screening and collection device.

[0039] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Furthermore, it should be understood that after reading the technical content of this utility model, those skilled in the art can make various alterations, modifications, and / or variations to this utility model, and all such equivalent forms also fall within the scope of protection defined by the appended claims.
