Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beef ball production technology, specifically to an automated feeding device for the steaming and cooking of beef balls. Background Technology

[0002] To make beef balls, fresh beef leg meat must be selected. After removing the tendons and fat, the meat is cut into chunks and pounded into a paste using a square iron mallet. The paste is then placed in a wooden basin, and water, starch, salt, MSG, and appropriate seasonings are added. The paste is vigorously stirred, kneaded, and patted with the palm of the hand until it becomes sticky and airy. The meat paste is then grasped into a fist and squeezed into balls using the thumb and forefinger. These balls are placed in warm water to set their shape before being cooked in a pot. Before steaming, the shaped beef balls need to be fed into the steaming chamber by a feeding device to ensure the quality of the cooking process.

[0003] The existing feeding device for beef ball steaming production has a fixed spacing between the feeding rollers, which cannot be adjusted according to actual needs. This means that the time the beef balls stay in the steaming chamber cannot be adjusted, affecting the production quality of the beef balls. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is to overcome existing defects and provide an automated feeding device for the steaming and cooking of beef balls. Through the design of a chute, support base, servo motor, rollers, rangefinder, and measuring baffle, the rangefinder can measure the distance between two adjacent corrugated rollers. The servo motor drives the rollers to rotate, causing the support bases at both ends of the corrugated rollers to move along the chute, adjusting the distance between adjacent corrugated rollers. This allows for adjustment of the number of beef balls stored between adjacent corrugated rollers and the dwell time of the beef balls between them, ensuring the production quality of the beef balls and effectively solving the problems in the background technology.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automated feeding device for the steaming and cooking of beef balls, comprising a steaming chamber, a chute formed on the upper side of the steaming chamber, a support seat installed in the chute, a limit block rotating beneath the lower side of the support seat, a servo motor mounted on one side of the limit block, a roller mounted on the lower side of the limit block, a right-angle reducer mounted on the upper side of the support seat, a rotating shaft mounted on the output end of the right-angle reducer, a connecting rod fixedly connected to the outer ring of the rotating shaft, a corrugated roller mounted on the end of the connecting rod away from the rotating shaft, and a feeding plate fixedly connected to the outer side of the corrugated roller.

[0006] Furthermore, a clamping cylinder is installed on the side of the support base away from the limiting block, and a drive motor is installed on the upper side of one part of the right-angle reducer.

[0007] Furthermore, a rangefinder is vertically mounted on one side of the upper part of the right-angle reducer, and a rangefinder baffle is vertically mounted on the other side of the upper part of the right-angle reducer.

[0008] Furthermore, side plates are fixedly installed at both ends of the corrugated roller, and the corrugated roller is connected to the output end of the right-angle reducer through the rotating shaft.

[0009] Furthermore, the support base and the slide groove are connected by the roller, and the servo motor and the roller are connected by a worm gear structure.

[0010] Furthermore, the clamping cylinder is bolted to the support base, and the support base is bolted to the right-angle reducer.

[0011] Furthermore, the feeding plate is welded to the corrugated roller, and the connecting rod is welded to the rotating shaft.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-6 This embodiment provides a technical solution: an automated feeding device for the production of beef balls, including a cooking chamber 1. A chute 2 is provided on the upper side of the cooking chamber 1. A support seat 7 is installed in the chute 2. The lower side of the support seat 7 passes through a limit block 14. A servo motor 15 is installed on one side of the limit block 14. A roller 16 is installed on the lower side of the limit block 14. A right-angle reducer 5 is installed on the upper side of the support seat 7. A rotating shaft 11 is installed at the output end of the right-angle reducer 5. A connecting rod 12 is fixedly connected to the outer ring of the rotating shaft 11. A corrugated roller 3 is installed at the end of the connecting rod 12 away from the rotating shaft 11. A feeding plate 9 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the corrugated roller 3.

[0023] like Figure 1-6 As shown, when steaming beef balls, the formed beef balls first fall into the front end of the steaming chamber 1 for a brief shaping. Then, the drive motor 6 drives the corrugated roller 3 to rotate, and the shaping beef balls are rotated and conveyed to one end of the steaming chamber 1 through the feeding plate 9, so that the beef balls are effectively steamed and the steaming quality of the beef balls is guaranteed. The rangefinder 8 can accurately measure the distance through the range measuring baffle 10. According to the measured distance data, when it is necessary to adjust the adjacent corrugated roller 3, the servo motor 15 drives the roller 16 to rotate, which causes the limit block 14 and the support seat 7 to move along the slide 2, which in turn causes the corrugated roller 3 supported on the upper part of the support seat 7 to move along the slide 2, so that the distance between adjacent corrugated roller 3 is adjusted, and the space between adjacent corrugated roller 3 is adjusted. The amount of beef balls stored and the residence time can be increased or decreased, so that the steaming quality of the beef balls in the steaming chamber is guaranteed.

[0024] A clamping cylinder 4 is installed on the side of the support base 7 away from the limit block 14. A drive motor 6 is installed on the upper side of the right angle reducer 5. The drive motor 6 provides power for the rotation of the corrugated roller 3, so that when the corrugated roller 3 rotates, the beef balls can be transported to the other end of the steaming box 1 through the feeding plate 9, ensuring the steaming quality of the beef balls.

[0025] A rangefinder 8 is vertically mounted on one side of the upper part of the right-angle reducer 5, and a rangefinder baffle 10 is vertically mounted on the other side of the upper part of the right-angle reducer 5. The rangefinder baffle 10 can block the measurement signal of the rangefinder 8, so that the rangefinder 8 can accurately measure the distance between adjacent corrugated rollers 3.

[0026] Both ends of the corrugated roller 3 are fixedly installed with side plates 13. The corrugated roller 3 is connected to the output end of the right angle reducer 5 through the rotating shaft 11. The right angle reducer 5 can reduce the speed of the drive motor 6. After reduction, it can drive the corrugated roller 3 to rotate, so that the corrugated roller 3 can convey the beef balls forward through the feeding plate 9.

[0027] The support base 7 is connected to the slide 2 via the roller 16, and the servo motor 15 is connected to the roller 16 via a worm gear structure.

[0028] The clamping cylinder 4 is connected to the support base 7 by bolts, and the support base 7 is connected to the right-angle reducer 5 by bolts.

[0029] The feeding plate 9 is welded to the corrugated roller 3, and the connecting rod 12 is welded to the rotating shaft 11.

[0030] The working principle of the automated feeding device for beef ball steaming production provided by this utility model is as follows: Figures 1-6 As shown, when steaming beef balls, the formed beef balls first fall into the front end of the steaming chamber 1 for a brief shaping. Then, the drive motor 6 drives the corrugated roller 3 to rotate, and the shaping beef balls are rotated and conveyed to one end of the steaming chamber 1 through the feeding plate 9, so that the beef balls are effectively steamed and the steaming quality of the beef balls is guaranteed. The rangefinder 8 can accurately measure the distance through the range measuring baffle 10. According to the measured distance data, when it is necessary to adjust the adjacent corrugated roller 3, the servo motor 15 drives the roller 16 to rotate, which causes the limit block 14 and the support seat 7 to move along the slide 2, which in turn causes the corrugated roller 3 supported on the upper part of the support seat 7 to move along the slide 2, so that the distance between adjacent corrugated roller 3 is adjusted, and the space between adjacent corrugated roller 3 is adjusted. The amount of beef balls stored and the residence time can be increased or decreased, so that the steaming quality of the beef balls in the steaming chamber is guaranteed.

[0031] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
