Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an ultrasonic cutter for food slicing, belonging to the technical field of cutter machines. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional cutting and processing methods involve manually placing food on a flat surface and cutting dough, such as biscuits, with a blade. However, this method is prone to problems such as sticking to the blade, resulting in low cutting efficiency, poor cutting quality, inconsistent food shapes and sizes, and inconsistent cut lengths. It also leads to high labor intensity and labor costs for workers.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, ultrasonic cutting machines are now available on the market to replace manual labor and solve these problems. However, the dough is constantly moving during the cutting process, and even if the cutting speed is fast enough, dough may still stretch and the dough may stick to the conveyor belt, affecting the cut surface and overall appearance. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention overcomes the shortcomings of existing technologies and provides an ultrasonic cutter for food slicing. The dough and the cutter are synchronized, and the cutter is tilted. The dough is automatically flipped after being cut, which solves the problems of dough stretching and dough sticking to the conveyor belt.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an ultrasonic cutter for food slicing, comprising a machine body, a first transmission belt, a second transmission belt, a cutter assembly, a control panel, and a cover. The first transmission belt and the second transmission belt are sequentially arranged on the front side of the machine body. The output end of the first transmission belt and the input end of the second transmission belt are staggered. The output end of the first transmission belt is horizontal, and the input end of the second transmission belt is inclined upward. The cutter assembly is located above the first transmission belt. The control panel is located on the top of the machine body. The cover is located on the machine body and can cover the cutter assembly.
[0006] Furthermore, the structure of the cutter assembly includes a base, a transverse motor, a lead screw, a first slide rail, guide blocks, a support plate, a support upright plate, a lifting motor, a connecting rod, a second slide rail, a slider, an ultrasonic generator, and a cutter. The transverse motor is fixedly mounted at one end of the base, and its power output end is connected to the lead screw. Two first slide rails are parallel to the lead screw and mounted on the base on both sides of the lead screw. Two guide blocks are correspondingly slidably mounted on the first slide rails. The bottom center of the support plate is threadedly connected to the lead screw, and both bottom sides of the support plate are fixedly connected to the guide blocks. The support upright plate is vertically mounted on the support... On the top side of the plate, the lifting motor is fixedly installed on the top side of the support plate. The power output end of the lifting motor passes through the support plate and is movably connected to the connecting rod. Two second slide rails are fixedly installed parallel to each other on the outer side of the support plate. The slider is movably installed on the two second slide rails. The other end of the connecting rod is movably connected to the slider. The lifting motor drives the connecting rod to make the slider move up and down along the second slide rails. An ultrasonic generator is installed on the slider. The power output end of the ultrasonic generator is connected to the cutter. The blade of the cutter is perpendicular to the lead screw and the blade of the cutter is inclined.
[0007] Furthermore, the cutter is shaped like a shovel, and the upper handle of the cutter is fixedly connected to the power output end of the ultrasonic generator.
[0008] Furthermore, the traverse motor and the lifting motor are electrically connected via a tracked cable mounted on the base, and the traverse motor and the lifting motor can work together via a control terminal.
[0009] Furthermore, there is an angle between the cutting edge of the cutter and the longitudinal section of the lead screw.
[0010] Furthermore, both the traverse motor and the lifting motor are servo motors.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In this utility model, the lifting motor drives the connecting rod to drive the cutter to move downwards, while the lead screw drives the base machine cutter to move horizontally in sync. The horizontal movement speed of the cutter is synchronized with the horizontal movement speed of the dough on the first conveyor belt. The inclined cutter cuts into the dough at a certain angle. Under high-frequency vibration, the dough particles on the dough will not stick to the cutter surface and form adhesion. Moreover, the inclined angle makes it easier to cut into the dough. In addition, there is a horizontal displacement during the upward movement of the cutter, which makes it easier to separate the cut dough by stirring the dough, thus solving the problem of dough stretching. When the cut dough falls from the first conveyor belt to the second conveyor belt, it automatically flips over and falls off, thus solving the problem of dough sticking to the conveyor belt.

Detailed Implementation
[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0022] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this utility model discloses an ultrasonic slicing machine for food slicing, comprising a body 1, a first transmission belt 2, a second transmission belt 3, a slicing assembly 4, a control panel 5, and a cover 6. The first transmission belt 2 and the second transmission belt 3 are sequentially arranged on the front side of the body 1. The output end of the first transmission belt 2 and the input end of the second transmission belt 3 are staggered. The output end of the first transmission belt 2 is horizontal, and the input end of the second transmission belt 3 is inclined upward. The slicing assembly 4 is located above the first transmission belt 2. The control panel 5 is located on the top of the body 1. The cover 6 is located on the body 1 and can cover the slicing assembly 4. The drive motors of the first transmission belt 2 and the second transmission belt 3 are located inside the body 1.
[0023] The cutter assembly 4 comprises a base 41, a transverse motor 42, a lead screw 43, a first slide rail 44, guide blocks 45, a support plate 46, a support upright plate 47, a lifting motor 48, a connecting rod 49, a second slide rail 410, a slider 411, an ultrasonic generator 412, and a cutter 413. The transverse motor 42 is fixedly mounted at one end of the base 41, and its power output end is connected to the lead screw 43. Two first slide rails 44 are parallel to the lead screw 43 and are mounted on the base 41 on both sides of the lead screw 43. Two guide blocks 45 are correspondingly slidably mounted on the first slide rail 410. On rail 44, the bottom center of the support plate 46 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 43. The two bottom sides of the support plate 46 are respectively fixedly connected to guide blocks 45. The support plate 47 is vertically mounted on the top side of the support plate 46. The lifting motor 48 is fixedly mounted on the top side of the support plate 46. The power output end of the lifting motor 48 passes through the support plate 47 and is movably connected to the connecting rod 49. Two second slide rails 410 are parallel and fixedly mounted on the outer side of the support plate 47. The slider 411 is movably mounted on the two second slide rails 410. The other end of the connecting rod 49... The slider 411 is movably connected to the connecting rod 49 driven by the lifting motor 48, allowing the slider 411 to reciprocate up and down along the second slide rail 410. An ultrasonic generator 412 is mounted on the slider 411. The power output end of the ultrasonic generator 412 is connected to a cutter 413. The blade of the cutter 413 is perpendicular to the lead screw 43, and the blade is angled. The cutter 413 is shaped like a shovel. The upper handle of the cutter 413 is fixedly connected to the power output end of the ultrasonic generator 412. The ultrasonic generator 412 is an existing structure that outputs high-frequency vibration at the power output end. The pulse signal is triggered by the downward position of the cutter 413 to excite the ultrasonic generator 412 to emit high-frequency vibration, which drives the cutter to cut the dough such as biscuits. The horizontal movement motor 42 and the lifting motor 48 are electrically connected by a tracked cable 414 set on the base 41. The horizontal movement motor 42 and the lifting motor 48 can work together through the control terminal. There is an angle between the blade of the cutter 413 and the longitudinal section of the lead screw 43. Both the horizontal movement motor 42 and the lifting motor 48 are servo motors.
[0024] In this invention, the lifting motor 48 drives the connecting rod 49 to drive the cutter 413 to move downwards, while the lead screw 43 drives the base 41 to move the cutter 413 horizontally in sync. The horizontal movement speed of the cutter 413 is synchronized with the horizontal movement speed of the dough on the first transmission belt 2. The inclined cutter 413 cuts into the dough at a certain angle. Under high-frequency vibration, the dough particles on the dough will not stick to the cutter 413 and form an adhesion. Moreover, the inclined angle makes it easier to cut into the dough. In addition, there is a horizontal displacement during the upward movement of the cutter 413, which makes it easier to separate the cut dough by stirring the dough, thus solving the problem of dough pulling. When the cut dough falls from the first transmission belt 2 onto the second transmission belt 3, it automatically flips over and falls off, thus solving the problem of dough sticking to the transmission belt.
[0025] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
