Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chopstick processing technology, specifically a chopstick tip cutting machine. Background Technology

[0002] Chopsticks are an indispensable utensil in daily life. During the processing of finished chopsticks, they need to be varnished. Because bamboo has a high natural porosity, if it is not varnished, food residue or detergent residue can easily remain on the chopsticks, which can easily lead to food safety issues. Because the varnishing process requires holding the chopsticks at the larger end, there will be instances where the larger end cannot be varnished. In order to varnish the entire chopstick, the larger end needs to be cut off.

[0003] The prior art, disclosed in CN203863794U, provides a chopstick cutting machine, including a frame. Two conveying rollers are provided at one end of the frame. The surface of the conveying rollers has notches. A serrated blade for cutting chopsticks is fixed on one side of the conveying rollers. Two rubber support pads are fixed on both sides of the conveying rollers. A chopstick pressing device is provided above the conveying rollers. A limiting rope is attached to the frame to limit the displacement of the chopstick pressing device. A chopstick correction plate is fixed on one side of the conveying rollers. The chopstick correction plate is concave when viewed from the discharge port of the hopper. A sliding plate is provided at the lower end of the bottom plate of the hopper. The sliding plate has a notch that matches the size of the conveying rollers. A connecting rod is connected to the sliding plate. The connecting rod is connected to an eccentric wheel and vibrates obliquely up and down. A hopper is fixed at the relative position of the conveying rollers. An arc-shaped guide plate for guiding chopsticks from the notches into the hopper is fixed on the top surface of the front wall of the hopper.

[0004] The aforementioned patent mainly uses a combination of conveying rollers and a chopstick clamping device to achieve the purpose of transmitting and cutting chopsticks. However, because the size of the hopper is fixed, this chopstick cutting machine can only cut chopsticks of fixed length. When the chopsticks are long, the tail end of the chopsticks will hit the chopstick correction plate during transmission, causing the chopsticks to break slightly, thus reducing the quality of the chopsticks cut by the chopstick cutting machine. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a chopstick cutting machine that solves the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a chopstick tip-cutting machine, comprising a machine body, a telescopic component fixedly installed on the upper side of one side of the machine body, a processing groove for chopstick limiting transmission formed between the machine body and the telescopic component, the telescopic component for adjusting the height of the processing groove, a squeezing component for squeezing chopsticks movably installed on the side of the machine body near the telescopic component, the machine body including a housing, a transmission component for stable transmission of chopsticks installed inside the housing, and a tip-cutting component for cutting chopsticks fixedly installed on one side of the transmission component. The tip-cutting component fixedly installed on one side of the transmission component allows the chopstick tip-cutting machine to stably cut the ends of chopsticks during operation, improving the efficiency of chopstick cutting.

[0007] Furthermore, the extrusion assembly includes a fixed plate and a spring column fixedly mounted on the housing. Multiple first telescopic shafts are fixedly mounted on the side of the fixed plate near the telescopic assembly. These first telescopic shafts are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the spring column. An extrusion plate is fixedly connected to the end of each of the first telescopic shafts away from the fixed plate. The spring column is fixedly connected to the extrusion plate and controls the movement of the extrusion plate. The spring column controls the movement of the extrusion plate, allowing it to extend outwards at all times, thus improving the overall integrity of the internal structure of the chopstick cutting machine.

[0008] Furthermore, the throwing knife assembly includes a first motor fixed inside the housing, a first drive shaft fixedly mounted on the output end of the first motor, and a throwing knife for cutting chopsticks fixedly connected to the end of the first drive shaft away from the first motor.

A connecting shaft is fixedly mounted below the center of the connecting piece, and an arc plate is fixedly connected to the side of the connecting shaft away from the connecting piece. The arc plate and the housing form the processing groove. This processing groove allows chopsticks to enter the chopstick cutting machine one by one and be driven sequentially into the transmission assembly, improving the practicality of the chopstick cutting machine.

[0011] Furthermore, a mounting frame for installing the extrusion assembly is fixedly installed on one side of the housing, and a feeding plate for chopsticks to slide off is provided on the side of the housing away from the telescopic assembly. A collection box for collecting chopsticks is placed in front of and below the feeding plate on the housing. The collection box for collecting chopsticks placed in front of and below the feeding plate on the housing improves the efficiency of chopstick collection by the chopstick cutting machine.

[0012] Furthermore, multiple hooks for removing chopsticks are fixedly installed on the side of the feeding plate away from the collection box, and these hooks are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the transmission component.

[0022] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0023] Example

[0024] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 6 This application will be further described in detail below. A chopstick cutting machine includes a machine body 1. A telescopic component 3 is fixedly installed on the upper side of one side of the machine body 1. A processing groove 2 for chopstick limiting transmission is formed between the machine body 1 and the telescopic component 3. The telescopic component 3 is used to adjust the height of the processing groove 2. A pressing component 4 for pressing chopsticks is movably installed on the side of the machine body 1 near the end of the telescopic component 3. The machine body 1 includes a shell 11. A transmission component 15 for stable transmission of chopsticks is installed inside the shell 11. A cutting knife component 12 for cutting chopsticks is fixedly installed on one side of the transmission component 15. By setting the processing groove 2 to be adjustable up and down, the chopstick cutting machine can process chopsticks of different thicknesses, thereby improving the applicability of the chopstick cutting machine for chopstick processing.

[0025] The extrusion assembly 4 includes a fixed plate 42 and a spring column 41 fixedly installed on the housing 11. A plurality of first telescopic shafts 43 are fixedly installed on the side of the fixed plate 42 near the telescopic assembly 3. The first telescopic shafts 43 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the spring column 41. An extrusion plate 44 is fixedly connected to the end of the plurality of first telescopic shafts 43 away from the fixed plate 42. The spring column 41 is fixedly connected to the extrusion plate 44. The spring column 41 is used to control the movement of the extrusion plate 44, so that the rebound force of the spring column 41 can directly act on the extrusion plate 44, and the extrusion plate 44 can perform concentrated extrusion operation on the chopsticks at all times, improving the convenience of using the chopsticks cutting machine.

[0026] The flying knife assembly 12 includes a first motor 121 fixed inside the housing 11. A first drive shaft 123 is fixedly installed at the output end of the first motor 121. A flying knife 122 for cutting chopsticks is fixedly connected to the end of the first drive shaft 123 away from the first motor 121. This makes the internal structure of the chopstick flying knife cutting machine more robust and reliable, and improves the stability of the chopstick flying knife cutting machine operation.

[0027] The transmission assembly 15 includes a second motor 151 fixedly mounted on the housing 11. The output end of the second motor 151 is fixedly connected to a second drive shaft 152. A rotating wheel 154 for supporting the transmission chopsticks is fixedly connected to the side of the second drive shaft 152 away from the second motor 151. A notch 155 for placing chopsticks is opened in the rotating wheel 154. Fillers 153 for clamping chopsticks are fixedly installed on both sides of the rotating wheel 154 in the notch 155. The fillers 153 are made of rubber. A support bar 156 is movably installed at the end of the second drive shaft 152 away from the second motor 151. The support bar 156 is fixedly installed below the housing 11 so that when the chopsticks slide into the notch 155, they will enter the innermost part of the notch 155 along the deformed filler 153. At this time, the rubber filler 153 can limit the chopsticks to a certain extent.

[0028] The telescopic assembly 3 includes a second telescopic shaft 32 and a hydraulic push rod 35 fixedly installed on the housing 11. A connector 31 is fixedly installed at the telescopic end of the hydraulic push rod 35. The connector 31 is fixedly installed on the second telescopic shaft 32. A connecting shaft 34 is fixedly installed below the center position of the connector 31. An arc plate 33 is fixedly connected to the side of the connecting shaft 34 away from the connector 31. A machining groove 2 is formed between the arc plate 33 and the housing 11.

[0029] A mounting frame 14 for mounting the extrusion assembly 4 is fixedly installed on one side of the housing 11. A feeding plate 13 for chopsticks to slide off is provided on the side of the housing 11 away from the telescopic assembly 3. A collection box 16 for collecting chopsticks is placed in front of and below the feeding plate 13 on the housing 11. The falling chopsticks will fall directly into the collection box 16 along the inclined feeding plate 13, which improves the convenience of collecting chopsticks by the chopstick flying knife cutting machine.

[0030] Multiple picking hooks 17 for removing chopsticks are fixedly installed on the side of the feeding plate 13 away from the collection box 16. The picking hooks 17 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the transmission component 15. Through the outward extension of the picking hooks 17, when the moving chopsticks pass by the picking hooks 17, they can be directly removed by the picking hooks 17, which improves the convenience of the chopsticks cutting machine for removing chopsticks.

[0031] Since both the first motor 121 and the second motor 151 are installed inside the housing 11, the user can adjust the positions of the first motor 121 and the second motor 151 inside the housing 11 according to the specific usage situation. This allows the chopsticks cutting machine to quickly cut the heads of chopsticks of different lengths, thus improving the practicality of the chopsticks cutting machine.

[0032] Since the material-retrieving hooks 17 are distributed on both sides of the rotating wheel 154, when the cut chopsticks pass by the material-retrieving hooks 17, as the rotating wheel 154 continues to rotate, the chopsticks will be directly hooked off by the material-retrieving hooks 17 and fall into the collection box 16 along with the feeding plate 13, which improves the overall efficiency of the chopsticks cutting machine for chopsticks processing.

[0033] Since the arc plate 33 is tilted downwards, and the housing 11 located below the arc plate 33 is also tilted downwards, the processing groove 2 formed inside the arc plate 33 and the housing 11 is also tilted downwards, so that the chopsticks can slide down the processing groove 2 into the transmission component 15 for corresponding transmission.

[0034] Since chopsticks vary in thickness, when the user needs to adjust the height of the processing chute 2, they only need to adjust the arc plate 33 up and down using the hydraulic push rod 35 to directly adjust the height of the processing chute 2, thus improving the practicality of the chopstick cutting machine.

[0035] The working principle of this utility model is explained below: Unless otherwise specified, all internal mechanical structures of the chopsticks cutting machine are fixed by threads. To allow for a more intuitive observation of the technical features, bolt connections are appropriately concealed in the diagram. When using the chopsticks cutting machine, the user activates the hydraulic push rod 35 to extend the arc plate 33 according to the thickness of the chopsticks, thereby adjusting the height of the processing groove 2. This allows the chopsticks to be arranged neatly within the processing groove 2. When the chopsticks are in the processing groove 2, the spring column 41 extends the compression plate 44 outwards. At this time, the first telescopic shaft 43 provides stability, and the outwardly extending compression plate 44 compresses one end of the chopsticks, ensuring they are neatly and compactly positioned within the processing groove 2. After all the chopsticks have been compressed by the compression plate 44, the user pushes the compression plate 44 backwards, causing the chopsticks to pass through the processing groove 2. The chopsticks slide sequentially into the rotating wheel 154 of the transmission assembly 15. When the chopsticks enter the rotating wheel 154, they slide into the notch 155. As the chopsticks move upward with the rotation of the rotating wheel 154, they fall into the filling body 153. At this time, the friction of the filling body 153 can firmly fix the chopsticks in the notch 155 of the rotating wheel 154. When the chopsticks are driven by the first motor 121, the head is cut off. After the head of the chopsticks is cut off, they continue to rotate with the rotating wheel 154. When the outer side of the chopsticks contacts the picking hook 17, they fall out of the notch 155 under the reverse force of the picking hook 17. Then they fall into the collection box 16 through the feeding plate 13 for collection. Through the above structure, the chopsticks head cutter can perform batch head cutting operations on chopsticks of different sizes and lengths, improving the practicality of the chopsticks head cutter and its applicability to various types of chopsticks.

[0036] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
