Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of lemon processing equipment, and in particular to a lemon slicer with adjustable slice thickness. Background Technology

[0002] Lemons are sour and sweet in taste, and neutral in nature. They enter the liver and stomach meridians and have the effects of resolving phlegm and relieving cough, promoting body fluid production, and strengthening the spleen. They are mainly used to treat bronchitis, whooping cough, vitamin C deficiency, heatstroke and thirst, loss of appetite, stomach upset, reduced appetite, and belching in pregnant women. They have the effects of promoting body fluid production, relieving summer heat, clearing heat and resolving phlegm. Because lemons are sour, they are usually eaten in small amounts by slicing them. Therefore, slicing lemons has become an important processing step.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent CN220922518U discloses a mechanical slicing device for lemon processing. Through the cooperation of a pump body, water tank, conveying pipe, absorption pipe, sprinkling pipe, water collection pool, filter plate, connecting pipe and other structures, dust and impurities on the surface of lemons are cleaned, ensuring the quality of slicing. This solves the problem in the prior art that the surface of lemons is covered with dust and impurities to varying degrees, and direct slicing can easily spread germs.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned related technologies, the inventors believe that the following defects exist:

[0005] In actual use, the device uses push rods and push plates to adjust the cleanliness of the sliced ​​surface. However, the first motor needs to be started manually, which makes the device inconvenient to use and affects its working efficiency. At the same time, when cleaning the lemon surface, the fixed position of the nozzle makes the cleaning effect on the lemon surface uneven, affecting the overall cleaning effect of the device. Therefore, we propose a lemon slicer with adjustable slice thickness. Utility Model Content

Under the action of the synchronous belt B and pulley B, the worm gear rotates, causing the worm wheel to rotate the threaded rod. This causes the threaded cylinder to move the lifting plate vertically, and the lifting plate to move the vertical plate upward, allowing the vertical plate to retract into the adjusting box. After the lemon is cut, the drive motor is started, causing the U-shaped frame to reset. This causes the lifting plate to move the vertical plate downward, cleaning the material on the cutter surface, ensuring the cleanliness of the cutter surface, realizing automatic cleaning of the cutter surface, and improving the work efficiency of cleaning the cutter surface.

[0019] 2. This utility model, by setting up a swing assembly, allows the moving screw to rotate during the movement of the lemon. Under the action of pulley A and synchronous belt A, the turntable rotates, causing the connecting rod to move with the turntable. This causes the double-sided toothed plate to reciprocate vertically under the action of the connecting rod. The swing gear, under the meshing action of the double-sided toothed plate, swings back and forth in the opposite direction, causing the water pipe to swing and spray water with the nozzle. This makes the water spray range of the device more uniform, thus making the cleaning of the lemon more even and improving the cleaning effect of the device. Attached Figure Description

[0031] The implementation principle of an adjustable slice thickness lemon slicer in this application embodiment is as follows: the lemon is placed on the push plate on the U-shaped frame 13, the drive motor is started, the moving screw 12 is rotated, and the U-shaped frame 13 moves the lemon to the left. Under the action of the cutter 6, the lemon is sliced.

[0032] Before use, depending on the desired lemon thickness, install the cutter 6 between the two vertical plates 19. Adjust the installation position of the cutter 6 to achieve the desired lemon thickness.

[0033] During use, the water used to clean the lemon surface will fall into the water collection box. Then, the water in the water collection box will be pumped into the water storage tank 4 through the pump 20 and the connecting pipe 21 to clean the lemon surface again.

[0034] During the movement of the lemon, the moving screw 12 rotates, and under the action of pulley A and synchronous belt A, the turntable 11 rotates, which in turn causes the connecting rod 10 to move with the turntable 11. As a result, the double-sided toothed plate 7 moves back and forth in the vertical direction under the action of the connecting rod 10. The oscillating gear 8 oscillates back and forth in the opposite direction under the meshing action of the double-sided toothed plate 7, causing the water pipe 9 to swing and spray water with the nozzle. This makes the water spray range of the device more uniform, thus making the cleaning of the lemon more uniform and improving the cleaning effect of the device.

[0035] As the U-shaped frame 13 moves from right to left, the moving screw 12 rotates. Under the action of the synchronous belt B and pulley B, the worm gear 18 rotates, causing the worm wheel 17 to rotate the threaded rod 16. This causes the threaded cylinder 15 to move the lifting plate 14 vertically, and the lifting plate 14 to move the vertical plate 19 upward, so that the vertical plate 19 is retracted into the adjusting box 5. After the lemon is cut, the drive motor is started, causing the U-shaped frame 13 to reset. This causes the lifting plate 14 to move the vertical plate 19 downward, cleaning the material on the surface of the cutter 6. This ensures the cleanliness of the cutter 6 surface, realizes automatic cleaning of the cutter 6 surface, and improves the working efficiency of cleaning the cutter 6 surface.
