Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of food processing, specifically to a cutting device for processing pig trotters. Background Technology
[0002] Pig's trotters, including the feet (hooves) and lower legs of a pig, anatomically consist of skin, muscles, bones, tendons, and a large amount of connective tissue. Cutting them into pieces before cooking allows for even heat distribution, preventing overcooking or undercooking in certain areas. Therefore, the cutting process is crucial in the processing of pig's trotters.
[0003] Currently, various pig trotter cutting technologies exist in the market. Taking the multi-segment bone saw with authorization announcement number CN 215501121 U as an example, this equipment consists of a frame body, a working platform, a feeding conveyor belt mechanism, and a multi-segment bone sawing mechanism. During operation, the material is transported to the multi-segment bone sawing mechanism via the feeding conveyor belt mechanism, and multi-segment sawing is completed with the help of multiple sets of saw blades, achieving the effect of continuous cutting and multi-segment collaborative operation.
[0004] However, such equipment has significant drawbacks. The cutting width between the saw blades is fixed after the equipment is manufactured and cannot be adjusted as needed during actual production. In the context of pig trotter processing, different applications have drastically different requirements for the size of the cut pieces. When preparing delicate dishes in high-end catering, small and uniformly sized pig trotter pieces are needed, requiring a narrower cutting width; while in large-scale catering supply or the production of pre-packaged foods, larger pig trotter pieces are often required to improve cooking efficiency and facilitate quantitative packaging, necessitating a wider cutting width. Because the cutting width of existing bone saws is fixed, food processing companies face a difficult choice. To meet different needs, multiple machines with different cutting widths must be purchased, which undoubtedly increases equipment purchase costs and subsequent maintenance expenses significantly; if relying on only a single machine, the size of the cut pieces can only be adjusted through manual secondary processing, which not only consumes a lot of manpower and time, but also makes it difficult to ensure the consistency of the cut piece size by manual operation, seriously affecting product quality and production efficiency.

[0027] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below, but it should be understood that the protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments.
[0028] First Embodiment
[0029] Please see Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a pig trotter processing cutting device includes a processing table 1 and a mounting frame 2. The mounting frame 2 is fixedly connected to the processing table 1. The processing table 1 is provided with a feeding mechanism 3 for transporting pig trotters. The mounting frame 2 is provided with a cutting mechanism 4. The cutting mechanism 4 includes cutting components 5 for cutting the pig trotters transported by the feeding mechanism 3. Several sets of cutting components 5 are provided. Each set of cutting components 5 is slidably connected to the mounting frame 2. The cutting mechanism 4 also includes an adjusting component 6 for adjusting the spacing between each set of cutting components 5.
[0030] The cutting assembly 5 includes a movable carriage 7, rolling wheels 8, and a saw blade 9. The movable carriage 7 is slidably connected to the mounting frame 2. Several rolling wheels 8 are arranged in a matrix and rotatably connected to the movable carriage 7. The saw blade 9 is connected to the rolling wheels 8. A horizontal slide rail 10 is fixedly installed inside the mounting frame 2. A slider 11 is fixedly installed on the side of the movable carriage 7 and slidably connected to the slide rail 10. The cutting assembly 5 also includes a drive motor 15, which is fixedly connected to the movable carriage 7. The output end of the drive motor 15 is coaxially fixedly connected to the rolling wheels 8.
[0031] The adjustment assembly 6 includes an adjustment screw 12, which is horizontal and rotatably connected to the slide rail 10. The slider 11 has a screw hole that is threadedly connected to the adjustment screw 12.
[0032] The feeding mechanism 3 includes a driven roller 16, a driving roller 17, a conveyor belt 18, and a conveyor motor 19. The driven roller 16 and the driving roller 17 are rotatably mounted at both ends of the processing table 1. Several conveyor belts 18 are provided, and a conveyor belt 18 is provided between every two sets of cutting components 5. The conveyor belts 18 are arranged in conjunction with the driven roller 16 and the driving roller 17. The conveyor motor 19 is fixedly connected to the processing table 1, and the output end of the conveyor motor 19 is coaxially fixedly connected to the driving roller 17.
[0033] In this pig trotter processing cutting device, the feeding mechanism 3 is responsible for transporting the pig trotters to the cutting position. The conveyor motor 19 starts and drives the drive roller 17 to rotate. Since the conveyor belt 18 is sleeved between the drive roller 17 and the driven roller 16, the conveyor belt 18 starts to run under the action of friction, thereby driving the pig trotters placed on the conveyor belt 18 to move towards the cutting mechanism 4.
[0034] When the pig's trotters are conveyed to the cutting mechanism 4, the cutting assembly 5 begins to work. The drive motor 15 operates, and its output end drives the rolling wheel 8 to rotate. Since the saw blade 9 is connected to the rolling wheel 8, the rotation of the rolling wheel 8 causes the saw blade 9 to perform a cutting motion. At this time, if it is necessary to adjust the width of the cut pieces, the adjustment assembly 6 can be operated. The adjusting screw 12 is rotatably engaged with the slide rail 10, and the screw hole on the slider 11 is threadedly engaged with the adjusting screw 12. When the adjusting screw 12 is rotated, the slider 11 will slide along the axial direction of the adjusting screw 12 on the slide rail 10. Since the slider 11 is fixedly connected to the movable slide 7, it drives the movable slide 7 and the saw blade 9 mounted on it to move, thereby realizing the adjustment of the spacing between each group of cutting assemblies 5 to meet the needs of cutting pieces of different sizes.
[0035] By setting the adjustment component 6, the spacing between each group of cutting components 5 can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs during equipment use, that is, the cutting width between saw blades 9 can be adjusted. This overcomes the defect of fixed cutting width in the existing technology and meets the different needs of high-end catering for small-sized pig trotter pieces as well as large-sized pig trotter pieces for large-scale catering supply and pre-packaged food production.
[0036] The feeding mechanism 3 and the cutting mechanism 4 work together. The feeding mechanism 3 continuously and stably transports the pig trotters to the cutting position, and the cutting mechanism 4 can quickly cut the pig trotters, reducing the time spent on manual handling and waiting. Compared with the traditional manual secondary processing to adjust the size of the pieces, it greatly improves production efficiency.
[0037] The cutting assembly 5 drives the rolling wheel 8 via the drive motor 15, which in turn drives the saw blade 9 to cut. Compared with manual cutting, it can ensure the consistency and accuracy of cutting, making the cut pig trotter pieces more uniform in size and improving product quality.
[0038] Second Embodiment
[0039] Based on the first embodiment, the adjustment assembly 6 further includes an adjustment handwheel 13, which is rotatably connected to the mounting bracket 2 and coaxially fixedly connected to the adjustment screw 12. When it is necessary to adjust the spacing between the cutting assemblies 5, the operator rotates the adjustment handwheel 13. The rotation of the adjustment handwheel 13 drives the adjustment screw 12 to rotate synchronously, which in turn drives the slider 11 and the movable slide 7 to move through the threaded engagement.
[0040] By adjusting the handwheel 13, operators can more conveniently and quickly adjust the spacing of the cutting assembly 5, improving operational convenience and efficiency. Compared to directly rotating the adjusting screw 12, the adjusting handwheel 13 provides greater operating torque, making operation more labor-saving.
[0041] Third Embodiment
[0042] Based on the first embodiment, a horizontally positioned support guide rod 14 is fixedly installed inside the mounting bracket 2, and a slide block is fixedly installed on the side of the movable slide 7. The slide block has a sliding hole that slides with the support guide rod 14. When the movable slide 7 is driven to move by the adjusting screw 12, the slide block slides along the support guide rod 14, providing additional support and guidance for the movement of the movable slide 7.
[0043] The cooperation between the support guide rod 14 and the slide enhances the stability of the movable slide 7 during movement, preventing the movable slide 7 from shaking or shifting during movement, further ensuring the accuracy of the saw blade 9's cutting position and improving the precision of the cut block size.
[0044] Fourth embodiment
[0045] Based on the first embodiment, the feeding mechanism 3 further includes adjusting wheels 20. Several adjusting wheels 20 are provided, and each adjusting wheel 20 is slidably connected to the drive roller 17. Each adjusting wheel 20 has a through hole, and a fastening bolt 21 is installed within the through hole. The through hole and the fastening bolt 21 are threadedly connected. The conveyor belt 18 is fitted between the driven roller 16 and the adjusting wheels 20. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the conveyor belt 18 to accommodate different pig hoof sizes, the fastening bolt 21 is loosened, the adjusting wheel 20 is slid on the drive roller 17, and the fastening bolt 21 is tightened after adjustment. Because the conveyor belt 18 is fitted between the driven roller 16 and the adjusting wheels 20, changes in the position of the adjusting wheels 20 will cause a corresponding adjustment in the position of the conveyor belt 18.
[0046] The adjustment wheel 20 increases the flexibility of the feeding mechanism 3, which can better adapt to the conveying needs of pig trotters of different sizes, ensure the stability of pig trotters during the conveying process, and avoid the pig trotters being poorly conveyed or shifted in position due to the conveyor belt 18 being too wide or too narrow. This improves the adaptability of the entire cutting device to pig trotters of different specifications.
[0047] Fifth embodiment
[0048] Based on the first embodiment, the feeding mechanism 3 further includes a pressing plate 22. Several pressing plates 22 are provided and arranged in a matrix at equal intervals on the side of the conveyor belt 18. During the transportation of pig hooves with the conveyor belt 18, the pressing plate 22 will come into contact with the pig hooves; when the pig hooves are cut by the cutting mechanism 4, the pressing plate 22 will apply a certain pressure to the pig hooves and press them firmly onto the saw blade 9.
[0049] The pressure plate 22 effectively prevents the pig trotters from jumping or shifting during the cutting process by the cutting mechanism 4, improving the accuracy and stability of the cutting, reducing the cutting defects caused by the positional deviation of the pig trotters, and thus improving product quality and production efficiency.
[0050] The above-disclosed embodiments are only a few specific examples of the present utility model. However, the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited thereto. Any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
