Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fritillary bulb processing technology, specifically a slicing device for fritillary bulb processing. Background Technology

[0002] Fritillaria, as an important traditional Chinese medicine, has significant effects such as clearing heat and moistening the lungs, resolving phlegm and relieving cough. It is widely used in the field of traditional Chinese medicine. The slicing process plays a key role in ensuring the efficacy of Fritillaria, facilitating storage, and subsequent preparation production. With the vigorous development of the traditional Chinese medicine industry, higher requirements have been placed on the quality and processing efficiency of Fritillaria slices.

[0003] Traditional methods of slicing fritillaria bulbs rely heavily on manual labor, where workers use blades to roughly estimate the thickness of each slice based on experience. This method has significant drawbacks: the resulting fritillaria bulb slices are of inconsistent thickness, making it difficult to meet standardized production requirements; labor costs are high, and efficiency is extremely low, severely limiting the large-scale development of the fritillaria bulb processing industry; furthermore, manual operation carries high safety risks, as operators are highly susceptible to cutting their fingers due to operational errors.

[0004] Taking a fritillary bulb slicing device disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN217943429U as an example, after slicing the fritillary bulb, the last portion of the cut fritillary bulb slices adheres to the blade. To clean these adhered slices, one can either manually brush them off one by one with a brush, a labor-intensive and slow process, or remove the connecting box and use water rinsing or other methods to remove the slices. These methods are cumbersome and require interrupting the slicing process and reassembling the equipment before continuing processing. Both manual brushing and removing the box significantly reduce the efficiency of fritillary bulb processing, affecting production continuity and failing to meet the demands of large-scale, high-efficiency modern fritillary bulb processing. Therefore, developing a device that can quickly and conveniently clean the fritillary bulb slices adhering to the blade after slicing is an urgent problem to be solved, which is of great significance for improving the overall efficiency of the fritillary bulb processing industry. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a slicing device for processing fritillaria bulbs, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a slicing device for processing fritillaria bulbs, comprising a base plate;

[0007] A column is vertically installed on both the left and right sides of the upper surface of the base plate. A horizontal plate is provided at the top of the two columns. A cylinder is vertically installed at the center of the upper surface of the horizontal plate. The output end of the cylinder passes through and extends to the bottom of the horizontal plate. A pressure plate is connected to the output end of the cylinder.

[0008] The lower pressure plate is slidably connected to the outside of the two columns, and the lower surface of the lower pressure plate is provided with a number of cutting blades at intervals.

[0009] Support plates are provided on both the left and right sides of the upper surface of the base plate. A frame is installed between the opposite sides of the two support plates. Several scrapers are installed inside the frame along the X-axis, and one of the scrapers is located between two adjacent cutting blades.

[0010] The base plate is also provided with a transmission assembly, on which a plurality of placement boxes are mounted, one of which is located below a plurality of the cutting blades.

[0011] Furthermore, the placement box is a cuboid with a hollow interior and a missing top surface.

[0012] Furthermore, the length and width of the placement box on the XY plane are respectively adapted to the length and width formed by the combination of several cutting blades on the XY plane.

[0013] Furthermore, the two support plates are located on the left and right sides of the transmission component, respectively.

[0014] Furthermore, a transmitter is installed on the left side of each of the placement boxes;

[0015] Corresponding to the transmitter, a receiver is installed on the side of the left support plate facing the placement box.

[0016] Furthermore, the transmission assembly includes rotating rollers rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the base plate, and the outer sides of the two rotating rollers are connected to the same transmission belt, with the top of the inner side of the transmission belt in contact with the upper surface of the base plate.

[0017] A motor with its output end connected to the front rotating roller is installed on the front side of the base plate.

[0018] Furthermore, several of the placement boxes are arranged at equal intervals on the outside of the conveyor belt.

[0019] Furthermore, the receiver is electrically connected to the cylinder and the motor via a control module.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] This fritillary bulb slicing device automates the slicing process through a synergistic design of its mechanical structure. A transmission component moves the placement box, while a photoelectric sensing system precisely positions the cutting blade to accurately align with the fritillary bulb stack, preventing empty cuts or positional misalignment. A cylinder drives the lower pressure plate to move vertically along the column, ensuring stable blade pressure and uniform slice thickness. The scraper within the frame precisely aligns with the blade gap, automatically scraping away adhering slices as the blade moves upward, eliminating the need for manual interruption and ensuring a continuous slicing process.

[0028] 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.

[0029] Please see Figure 1-5 The slicing device for processing fritillaria in this embodiment includes a base plate 1, with columns 2 vertically installed on the left and right sides of the upper surface of the base plate 1, a horizontal plate 3 fixed at the top of the two columns 2, and a cylinder 4 vertically installed at the center of the horizontal plate 3. The output end of the cylinder 4 passes through the bottom of the horizontal plate 3 and is connected to the lower pressure plate 5 for transmission.

[0030] The lower pressure plate 5 is slidably connected to the outside of the two columns 2. Several cutting blades 6 are arranged at intervals on its lower surface. Support plates 7 are provided on the left and right sides of the upper surface of the base plate 1. A frame 8 is installed between the two support plates 7. Several scrapers 9 are installed inside the frame 8 along the X-axis, with one scraper 9 located between two adjacent cutting blades 6. A transmission assembly 10 is provided on the base plate 1. Several placement boxes 11 are installed on the transmission assembly 10, and one of the placement boxes 11 can be moved to below the cutting blades 6.

[0031] In more detail, the placement box 11 is a cuboid with a hollow interior and a missing top surface. Its length and width on the XY plane are compatible with the length and width of the cutting blade 6 after assembly.

[0032] More specifically, the transmission assembly 10 includes rotating rollers 1001 rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the base plate 1. The outer sides of the two rotating rollers 1001 are connected to the transmission belt 1002. The top of the inner side of the transmission belt 1002 is in contact with the upper surface of the base plate 1. A motor 1003 is installed on the front side of the base plate 1, and its output end is connected to the front rotating roller 1001. Several placement boxes 11 are equidistantly arranged on the outer side of the transmission belt 1002.

[0033] In addition, a transmitter 12 is installed on the left side of each placement box 11, and a receiver 13 is installed at the corresponding position on the left support plate 7. The receiver 13 is electrically connected to the cylinder 4 and the motor 1003 through the control module.

[0034] In actual setup, cylinder 4 is fixed to horizontal plate 3, and its output end is connected to lower pressure plate 5 via a transmission connection. The lower pressure plate 5 is driven by air pressure to slide up and down along column 2. The sliding connection between lower pressure plate 5 and column 2 ensures the stability of cutting blade 6 when it is pressed down, and avoids uneven thickness of fritillaria slices caused by blade tilting.

[0035] Furthermore, the scraper 9 is fixed to the frame 8 by bolts or slots, and its position corresponds to the gap between adjacent cutting blades 6. The scraper 9 is made of elastic rubber or plastic, and its upper surface is flush with the lowest position of the cutting blade 6 when it is pressed down, so as to effectively scrape off the adhering fritillaria slices when the blade moves up.

[0036] In actual use, the output end of the motor 1003 is driven by the front rotating roller 1001 through a belt or gear, which drives the conveyor belt 1002 to move at a constant speed. The placement box 11 is fixed on the outside of the conveyor belt 1002 and moves to the cutting station with the conveyor belt 1002. The transmitter 12 and the receiver 13 form a photoelectric sensing system. When the placement box 11 moves in front of the receiver 13, the beam of light from the transmitter 12 is received by the receiver 13 and a signal is sent to the control module through the receiver 13 to control the motor 1003 to stop and start the cylinder 4, so as to ensure that the placement box 11 is accurately positioned under the cutting blade 6.

[0037] It should be noted that the electrical connections of the transmitter 12, receiver 13, and control module in this embodiment all adopt conventional connection methods in the prior art. For example, the transmitter 12, receiver 13, and input / output ports of the control module are connected by wires. The control module is then electrically connected to the cylinder 4 and motor 1003 through components such as relays to realize signal transmission and device control. The innovation of this embodiment lies mainly in the design of the mechanical structure, and the automatic slicing of the fritillaria and the automatic cleaning of the blade are realized through the cooperation of the mechanical structure. Therefore, the electrical connection method and principle of the transmitter 12, receiver 13, and control module will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0038] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:

[0039] (1) Place the fritillaria to be sliced ​​into the placement box 11, start the motor 1003, drive the rotating roller 1001 to rotate, and the conveyor belt 1002 drives the placement box 11 to move along the bottom plate 1 to the cutting station. When the transmitter 12 on the left side of the placement box 11 moves to the front of the receiver 13 on the left support plate 7, the beam of the transmitter 12 is received by the receiver 13. The receiver 13 triggers the control module, the motor 1003 stops, the placement box 11 is precisely positioned below the cutting blade 6, the control module starts the cylinder 4, the output end of the cylinder 4 pushes the pressure plate 5 to move downward along the column 2, and the cutting blade 6 is inserted into the fritillaria pile in the placement box 11 to cut the fritillaria into slices of a predetermined thickness.

[0040] (2) After slicing, the output end of cylinder 4 retracts, driving the lower pressure plate 5 and the cutting blade 6 to move upward. When the cutting blade 6 passes through the frame 8, the scraper 9 in the frame 8 passes through the gap between adjacent blades and scrapes off the fritillaria slices adhering to the blades, so as to avoid the blades carrying material and affecting the next slicing. The cut fritillaria slices remain in the placement box 11. The conveyor belt 1002 continues to move, transporting the placement box 11 to the unloading station. At the same time, the empty placement box 11 moves to the feeding station, and the above process is repeated.

[0041] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0042] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
