[0024] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic slaughtering and descaling device for live fish, including an operating table 1. A fixed frame 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the operating table 1. Two spiral descaling rollers 3 are arranged inside the fixed frame 2. The two spiral descaling rollers 3 are existing technology and will not be described in detail here. A feeding slide plate 4 is fixedly installed on one side of the operating table 1. The top of the feeding slide plate 4 is triangular groove-shaped. A groove 15 is opened at the top of the operating table 1. A circular blade 14 is rotatably installed inside the groove 15. The blade of the circular blade 14 protrudes above the groove 15. Two pulleys 6 are arranged on both sides of the circular blade 14. Two conveyor belts 7 are connected to the outer surfaces of the four pulleys 6. The two conveyor belts 7 are located on the circular blade 14. A cleaning assembly is arranged at the top of the operating table 1. The cleaning assembly includes two cleaning scrapers 13. The opposite ends of the two cleaning scrapers 13 are both beveled ends. The two cleaning scrapers 13 are respectively located on one side of the two conveyor belts 7. The bottom ends of the two cleaning scrapers 13 are slidably connected to the top of the operating table 1.

[0025] Furthermore, each of the two cleaning scrapers 13 is fixedly connected to a limiting plate 12 at its opposite ends. The opposite ends of the two limiting plates 12 are T-shaped, and each of the opposite ends of the two limiting plates 12 is fixedly connected to a pressure spring 11.

[0026] Furthermore, two fixing blocks 9 are fixedly connected to the top of the operating table 1. T-shaped limiting grooves 10 are opened inside the two fixing blocks 9. The interiors of the two T-shaped limiting grooves 10 are slidably connected to the opposite ends of the two limiting plates 12 respectively. The opposite ends of the two pressure springs 11 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of the corresponding T-shaped limiting grooves 10 respectively.

[0027] Furthermore, a collection trough 16 is provided at the top of the operating table 1, and the collection trough 16 is located below the two cleaning scrapers 13.

[0028] Furthermore, a discharge hopper 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the operating table 1, and the discharge hopper 5 is located on one side of the two cleaning scrapers 13.

[0029] Furthermore, a first motor 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the operating table 1, and a rotating rod 18 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 8. One end of the rotating rod 18 rotates through the interior of the groove 15 and is fixedly connected to one end of the circular knife 14.

[0030] Furthermore, two second motors 17 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the operating table 1. The output ends of the two second motors 17 rotate through the interior of the operating table 1 and are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom of the corresponding pulleys 6.

[0031] Furthermore, by placing the live fish on the feeding slide plate 4, the triangular groove design at the top of the feeding slide plate 4 provides a guiding function, making it easy for the operator to push the live fish between the two spiral descaling rollers 3. Then, by turning on the external power supply, the two spiral descaling rollers 3 are rotated. Here, the spiral descaling rollers 3 are existing technology. Then, the two spiral descaling rollers 3 cooperate with each other, and through the friction and spiral propulsion force generated by the rotation, they can effectively scrape the surface of the live fish and remove the fish scales. The live fish is squeezed and pushed between the two spiral descaling rollers 3. As the spiral descaling rollers 3 rotate, the fish scales are gradually scraped off, completing the descaling process.

[0032] Furthermore, the scaled live fish continues to move forward and enters between the two conveyor belts 7. The two second motors 17 at the bottom of the operating platform 1 are started. The output ends of the two second motors 17 drive the corresponding pulleys 6 to rotate, thereby causing the four pulleys 6 to drive the two conveyor belts 7 to run synchronously. Then, the two conveyor belts 7 continue to guide and transport the scaled live fish. The live fish is then transported to the circular knife 14. At the same time, the first motor 8 is started. The first motor 8 drives the circular knife 14 to rotate at high speed in the groove 15 through the rotating rod 18. When the live fish is sent by the conveyor belt 7 to the top of the circular knife 14, the blade of the circular knife 14 protruding from the groove 15 guts the live fish, thus automatically completing the slaughter of the live fish.

[0033] Furthermore, as the slaughtered fish slides out from between the two conveyor belts, its head comes into contact with and is pressed against the opposite inclined ends of the two cleaning scrapers 13. This causes the two cleaning scrapers 13 to move the two limiting plates 12 in opposite directions. The two limiting plates 12 then compress the corresponding pressure springs 11. At this time, the opposite ends of the two cleaning scrapers 13 are pressed tightly against the sides of the fish body by the pressure springs 11. When the slaughtered fish slides completely out from between the two cleaning scrapers 13, the two cleaning scrapers 13 clean the fish scales adhering to the sides of the fish. The scraped fish scales fall into the collection trough 16, making it easier to clean the slaughtered fish body. The cleaned fish then slides into the discharge hopper 5. Two boxes are prepared in advance: one box is placed below the collection trough 16 to collect the cleaned fish scales, and the other box is placed below the discharge hopper 5 to collect the slaughtered fish.

[0034] Furthermore, by setting up two cleaning scrapers 13, and using two limiting plates 12 and two pressure springs 11, the opposite ends of the two cleaning scrapers 13 can be pressed tightly against the sides of the fish body, which makes it convenient to clean the fish scales adhering to the sides of the fish body. The operation process is simple and quick, thus solving the problem that traditional slaughtering and scaling devices are inconvenient to clean the sides of the fish body, and improving the practicality of the slaughtering and scaling device.

[0035] Structural Description:

[0036] Operating platform 1: The basic load-bearing component of the entire device, providing an installation and operation platform for other components. Its stable structure ensures the normal operation of each component during the slaughtering and scaling of live fish, and is the foundation for the device to realize its functions.

[0037] Fixed frame 2: Fixedly connected to the top of the operating table 1, used to support and fix the two spiral descaling rollers 3, providing a stable working space for the live fish descaling process, ensuring that the position of the descaling rollers 3 is fixed during the descaling process, so that the live fish can pass through smoothly and complete the descaling operation.

[0038] Spiral descaling roller 3: As the core component for descaling live fish, it utilizes the spiral structure and the friction and propulsion generated by rotation to contact and scrape the surface of the live fish, removing the scales. Two spiral descaling rollers 3 work together to achieve efficient and comprehensive descaling by squeezing and pushing the live fish, representing a functional application of existing technology in this device.

[0039] Feed slide plate 4: Fixedly installed on one side of the operating table 1, with a triangular groove at the top. The triangular groove guides the live fish smoothly to slide between the two spiral descaling rollers 3, making it convenient for staff to place the live fish and prepare for the subsequent descaling operation.

[0040] Discharge hopper 5: Fixedly connected to one side of the operating table 1, located on one side of the two cleaning scrapers 13, it is the output channel for live fish after slaughtering and cleaning. After the live fish complete the scaling, slaughtering and cleaning process, they are transported to the discharge hopper 5 by the conveyor belt 7 and finally slide out from the discharge hopper 5 to realize the collection of processed fish products.

[0041] Pulleys 6: Located on both sides of the circular blade 14, the four pulleys 6 are connected to the two conveyor belts 7 through transmission. Driven by the second motor 17, the conveyor belts 7 rotate, providing power for the transport of live fish in the device and ensuring that the live fish can smoothly enter the slaughtering and cleaning stage from the scaling stage.

[0042] Conveyor belt 7: Driven by four pulleys 6, located on both sides of the circular knife 14, it receives the scaled live fish and transports them to the circular knife 14 for slaughter. After slaughter, it continues to transport the live fish through the cleaning component. After cleaning, the fish are transported to the discharge hopper 5. It is the carrier for the movement of live fish in the device.

[0043] The first motor 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the operating table 1. Its output end is connected to the circular blade 14 via a rotating rod 18, providing power for the rotation of the circular blade 14. After starting, it drives the circular blade 14 to rotate at high speed within the groove 15, thus realizing the slaughtering operation of live fish.

[0044] Fixed block 9: Fixedly connected to the top of the operating table 1, with a T-shaped limiting groove 10 inside for installing the limiting plate 12, providing a sliding track and fixed support for the limiting plate 12 in the cleaning assembly, ensuring the stability and movement guidance of the cleaning scraper 13 during the cleaning process.

[0045] T-shaped limiting groove 10: It is opened inside the fixed block 9 and is slidably connected to the opposite end of the T-shape of the limiting plate 12. With the help of the pressure spring 11, the limiting plate 12 can slide in the groove and maintain a certain elastic pressure, thereby controlling the position of the cleaning scraper 13 and the contact force with the fish body.

[0046] Pressure spring 11: One end is fixedly connected to the opposite end of the limiting plate 12, and the other end is fixed to the inner wall of the T-shaped limiting groove 10. It provides elastic force for the cleaning scraper 13. When the slaughtered fish head squeezes the cleaning scraper 13, the pressure spring 11 is compressed. Then, the elastic restoring force is used to make the cleaning scraper 13 stick tightly to both sides of the fish body to ensure the fish scale cleaning effect.

[0047] Limiting plate 12: Fixedly connected to the opposite end of the cleaning scraper 13, in the shape of T, and slidably connected to the T-shaped limiting groove 10. Under the action of the pressure spring 11, it limits the movement range of the cleaning scraper 13, and at the same time transmits the elastic force of the pressure spring 11 to the cleaning scraper 13, ensuring that the cleaning scraper 13 can stably clean the fish body.

[0048] Cleaning scraper 13: As the core component of the cleaning assembly, the two cleaning scrapers 13 are located on one side of the two conveyor belts 7 respectively, with the opposite ends being inclined. When the slaughtered fish passes by, under the squeezing of the fish head and the action of the pressure spring 11, the opposite ends of the cleaning scrapers 13 are pressed against the sides of the fish body, scraping off the fish scales adhering to the sides of the fish body. The scraped fish scales fall into the collection trough 16 below.

[0049] Circular knife 14: Rotatably installed in the groove 15 at the top of the operating table 1, with the blade protruding above the groove 15. Driven by the first motor 8, it rotates at high speed. When the live fish is transported above it by the conveyor belt 7, it guts the live fish and completes the slaughtering operation.

[0050] Groove 15: Located at the top of the operating table 1, it is used to install the circular blade 14, providing space for the rotation of the circular blade 14 and ensuring that the circular blade 14 operates stably within a safe range.

[0051] Collection trough 16: Located at the top of the operating table 1, below the two cleaning scrapers 13, it is used to collect the fish scales scraped off by the cleaning scrapers 13, so as to realize the centralized storage of debris, keep the working environment clean, and facilitate subsequent cleaning.

[0052] The second motor 17 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the operating table 1. Its output end rotates through the inside of the operating table 1 and is connected to the corresponding pulley 6, providing power for the rotation of the pulley 6, thereby driving the conveyor belt 7 to run and realize the transportation of live fish in the device.

[0053] Rotating rod 18: One end is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 8, and the other end rotates through the groove 15 and is fixedly connected to one end of the circular knife 14, so as to transmit the rotational power of the first motor 8 to the circular knife 14, ensuring that the circular knife 14 can rotate at high speed to complete the slaughtering task.

[0054] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model 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 utility model.
