[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of konjac slicing equipment, specifically, to a slicing device. Background Technology

[0002] Konjac is an economic crop rich in soluble dietary fiber, widely used in food processing and health products. In the initial processing of konjac, the slicing step is particularly crucial, directly affecting the efficiency of subsequent drying, steaming, and other processes, as well as the quality of the finished product. To meet processing needs, various konjac slicing machines have emerged on the market to improve slicing efficiency and product consistency.

[0003] Currently, many devices with slice thickness adjustment functions employ electrical control methods, such as electric actuators, servo systems, or automatic adjustment devices, to achieve precise control over slice thickness. However, these devices are generally complex in structure, expensive, and require extensive maintenance, making them unsuitable for small to medium-sized processing scenarios or basic applications with low thickness adjustment requirements.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to propose an improved scheme with a simple structure, flexible adjustment method, and the ability to adjust the slice thickness through manual operation, so as to reduce manufacturing costs, simplify operation, and retain the function of adjustable slice thickness, thereby improving the practicality and adaptability of the equipment. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0022] To further understand the content of this utility model, a detailed description of this utility model will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments are merely illustrative of this utility model and are not intended to limit it.

[0023] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-4 This embodiment will be described in further detail.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-4 In this embodiment, a slicing device includes a platform 100 as a basic support structure. Two sliding rods 101 arranged symmetrically along the vertical direction are fixed on the platform 100. A lifting plate 102 is installed between the two sliding rods 101. Under the guidance and constraint of the sliding rods 101, the lifting plate 102 can achieve stable up-and-down reciprocating motion to drive the cutter 104 installed at its bottom to perform vertical cutting.

[0025] Two parallel connecting rods 103 are fixedly connected to the front bottom of the lifting plate 102, and a cutter 104 is installed between the connecting rods 103 through a slot structure.

[0026] The lower end of the connecting rod 103 has a slot for holding the edge of the cutter 104, which serves to limit and fix the cutter 104, preventing it from shaking or shifting during the lifting and cutting process. Specifically, pre-drilled holes are provided at both ends of the cutter 104, and bolts 112 are threaded through the connecting rod 103. The bolts 112 pass through the pre-drilled holes to firmly fix the cutter 104 in the slot on the connecting rod 103, making the disassembly, installation, and replacement of the cutter 104 convenient and efficient.

[0027] In this embodiment, a slot 105 is provided on the table 100 below the cutter 104 to provide free fall space for the cut material. Above the slot 105, on the table 100, is a movable baffle 106. The baffle 106 can be manually adjusted to limit the maximum stroke of the material being pushed, thereby controlling the thickness of a single slice and meeting the processing requirements for slices of different specifications.

[0028] In this embodiment, in order to drive the cutter 104 to move up and down reciprocally with the lifting plate 102, a drive assembly is provided on the table 100. The drive assembly includes a pair of mounting plates 200 fixed on the table 100, and a rotating rod 201 is mounted on the mounting plate 200 through bearings. An eccentric wheel structure 202 is fixed between the rotating rods 201.

[0029] A connecting member 203 is fixed to the bottom of the lifting plate 102. The eccentric wheel structure 202 and the connecting member 203 are connected by a connecting rod 204. One end of the connecting rod 204 is hinged to the eccentric wheel structure 202, and the other end is hinged to the connecting member 203. During the rotation of the eccentric wheel structure 202, the eccentric wheel structure 202 drives the connecting rod 204 to reciprocate, thereby driving the lifting plate 102 to achieve stable vertical lifting motion. The transmission process is continuous and smooth with a fast response speed, thus enabling the cutter 104 to slice the konjac by reciprocating up and down motion.

[0030] Specifically, the eccentric wheel structure 202 includes eccentric rods arranged opposite each other, and the rotating rod 201 includes two sections. One end of the eccentric rod is fixedly connected to the corresponding section of the rotating rod 201, and the other ends of the eccentric rods are connected by a hinge rod. The hinge rod passes through one end of the connecting rod 201 to realize the hinged connection between the eccentric wheel structure 202 and the connecting rod 204.

[0031] In this embodiment, a support frame is fixedly mounted on the table 100, and a motor 205 is fixedly mounted on the support frame. The output shaft of the motor 205 is connected to the end of one of the rotating rods 201 via a coupling. The motor 205 drives the rotating rod 201 to rotate, which in turn drives the eccentric wheel structure 202 to rotate continuously. The eccentric wheel structure 202 drives the connecting rod 204 to oscillate periodically, thereby causing the lifting plate 102 connected to it to produce a stable up-and-down reciprocating linear motion, so that the cutter 104 can perform slicing operations.

[0032] It should be noted that the motor 205 is a servo motor, which can control the rotation of the rotating rod 201. During the process of the rotating rod 201 driving the cutter 104 to rise and fall once, the cutter 104 is kept in the raised position so that the konjac raw material can then adhere to the baffle 106.

[0033] Please see Figures 1-4In this embodiment, the adjustment component can adjust the position of the baffle 106. The adjustment component includes plates 300 fixed to both sides of the table 100. Each plate 300 has a sliding groove 301 along the front-back direction, forming a sliding channel. A screw 302 is fixedly connected to each end of the baffle 106. The screw 302 extends from the sliding groove 301 on the corresponding plate 300. Each screw 302 has a nut 303 threaded onto its external surface, used to apply axial clamping force to the plate 300, thereby locking the position of the baffle 106. During use, the user can loosen the nut 303 and push the screw 302, along with the baffle 106, to slide back and forth along the sliding groove 301, thus adjusting the slice thickness. After the baffle 106 is adjusted to the target position, tighten the nut 303 so that the nut 303 presses against the outer surface of the plate 300, thereby locking the screw 302 stably in the moving groove 301, thus preventing the baffle 106 from shifting and ensuring the stability of the baffle 106 position and the consistency of the slice thickness.

[0034] In this embodiment, to enhance the locking effect, a rubber washer 304 is fitted onto each screw 302. The rubber washer 304 is positioned between the nut 303 and the plate 300 to enhance the friction between them, preventing the nut 303 from loosening under vibration. Simultaneously, the plate 300 has multiple equidistantly arranged protrusions corresponding to the rubber washer 304. When the nut 303 is tightened, the rubber washer 304 partially engages with the protrusions, further increasing the locking friction and ensuring that the baffle 106 does not easily shift during prolonged operation. This structural design is simple, balancing ease of operation and adjustment stability. It not only reduces the overall structural complexity but also improves the reliability and service life of positioning during thickness adjustment.

[0035] Please see Figures 1-4In this embodiment, a pair of opposing limiting plates 107 are fixedly provided on the table 100, forming a feeding trough for placing konjac raw materials. To solve the problem of uneven accumulation of konjac materials, multiple evenly spaced partition plates 108 are provided in the feeding trough, thereby dividing the entire feeding trough into multiple longitudinally extending feeding troughs 109. The width of each feeding trough 109 matches the size of a single konjac block. This structure can effectively realize the partitioned arrangement of konjac, avoiding problems such as uneven force, poor pushing, or broken cut surfaces caused by the konjac blocks piling up together. Through reasonable partitioning, the raw materials can be neatly arranged in the feeding stage, which helps to ensure accurate subsequent pushing and neat cutting, improves product consistency and finished product quality, and is suitable for multi-channel synchronous processing production scenarios. Above the limiting plates 107, a pressure plate 110 is also provided at the front end, which is used to moderately compress the konjac blocks before slicing, thereby preventing the raw materials from shifting position due to elastic rebound during cutting or pushing, improving cutting accuracy and slice shape consistency.

[0036] In this embodiment, to achieve automatic feeding of raw materials, each feeding trough 109 is equipped with a push plate 111. The push plate 111 can move back and forth along the feeding trough 109 to push the konjac to the bottom of the cutter 104 and abut against the baffle 106. The push plates 111 are connected as one unit by push rods 400, and multiple push rods 400 are connected by connecting plates 401 to form a linkage structure. The inner side of the limiting plate 107 is provided with a sliding groove 402, and the two sides of the connecting plate 401 are provided with sliding blocks 403. The sliding blocks 403 are embedded in the sliding groove 402 to achieve precise guidance, thereby ensuring the stability and straightness of the entire pushing action. A hydraulic cylinder 404 is provided on the table 100. The hydraulic cylinder 404 is connected to the connecting plate 401 and can drive the push plate 111 to reciprocate and extend, so as to stably and evenly push the konjac to the cutting position, reduce human feeding errors, and improve the controllability and automation of the cutting rhythm.

[0037] In actual use, this embodiment first adjusts the distance between the baffle 106 and the cutter 104 to a suitable distance according to the thickness of the konjac raw material to be sliced. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 404 is started to push the konjac raw material in the feeding trough 109 against the baffle 106. Then, the motor 205 is started to drive the cutter 104 to complete one lifting and lowering operation, thereby slicing the konjac raw material. The sliced ​​raw material can be discharged from the slot 105. After one slicing operation, the hydraulic cylinder 404 pushes the konjac raw material in the feeding trough 109 against the baffle 106 again. Then, the motor 205 is started to drive the cutter 104 to complete one lifting and lowering operation, thereby completing one slicing operation. The above operation is repeated to realize the slicing process of konjac raw material.

[0038] In summary, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the patent application of the present utility model shall fall within the scope of the patent of the present utility model.
