[0030] 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.
[0031] Please see Figures 1-7 This utility model discloses a thickness-adaptive adjustable beef slicing mechanism, including a base 1; a mounting plate 2, which is fixed to the top of the base 1, and a smart control panel 3 is fixed to the top of the mounting plate 2. A discharge port, square in shape, is also provided on the side wall of the mounting plate 2; a cutting blade assembly 4, including a slicing blade 41 rotatably connected to one side wall of the mounting plate 2 via a limiting shaft, and a driving mechanism 42 for driving the slicing blade 41 to reciprocate; and a feeding mechanism 5, including a feeding mechanism fixed to the top of the base 1 via two brackets. The guide seat 51 has an electric push rod 52 fixed on one side wall. The fixed end of the electric push rod 52 slides through the guide seat 51 and extends into it, where a pusher plate 53 is fixed. Two sets of self-adjusting limit plate assemblies 54 are installed inside the guide seat 51. The screening assembly 6 includes a support frame 61 set on one side of the mounting plate 2. A screen 62 is fixed inside the support frame 61. Four sets of support assemblies 63 are installed at the bottom of the support frame 61. A reciprocating mechanism 64 is installed inside the mounting plate 2 to reciprocate and vibrate the screen 62.
[0032] Specifically, the drive mechanism 42 includes a U-shaped block 421 fixed to one side wall of the mounting plate 2. The side wall of the U-shaped block 421 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 422 via a bearing. One end of the rotating shaft 422 is fixed to a drive plate 423. A circular opening is provided on the side wall of the mounting plate 2 to allow the drive plate 423 to pass. The slicing blade 41 is movably connected to the drive plate 423.
[0033] In this embodiment, a motor is fixed on the U-shaped block 421. The output end of the motor is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 422. After the motor is started, the rotating shaft 422 rotates under the action of the bearing on the side wall of the U-shaped block 421. After it rotates, it can drive the drive plate 423 fixed at one end to rotate, which in turn can make the slicing blade 41, which is movably connected to the drive plate 423, swing back and forth, thus enabling the slicing of moving beef.
[0034] Specifically, the self-adjusting limiting plate assembly 54 includes two guide rods 541 that slide on the guide seat 51. One end of the two guide rods 541 is fixed with a side baffle 542. Two springs 543 are fixed to one side wall of the side baffle 542. The other end of each spring 543 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the guide seat 51.
[0035] In this embodiment, the guide rod 541 can support and guide the side baffle 542. When the beef enters the guide seat 51, it will squeeze the side baffle 542. At this time, the side baffle 542 will compress the spring 543. Then, under the elastic force of the spring 543, the side baffle 542 can be pressed tightly against the beef, thereby achieving adaptive limiting.
[0036] Specifically, each of the springs 543 has a telescopic cover 544 on its outer side. The other end of each telescopic cover 544 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the guide seat 51, and the other end of each telescopic cover 544 is fixedly connected to the side baffle 542.
[0037] In this embodiment, one end of the telescopic cover 544 is fixed to the inner wall of the guide seat 51, and the other end is fixed to the side baffle 542. When the side baffle 542 moves, the telescopic cover 544 extends and retracts accordingly, enclosing the spring 543 inside, thereby protecting the spring 543, preventing beef scraps, oil stains, etc. from affecting its elastic performance, and extending the service life of the spring 543.
[0038] Specifically, the support assembly 63 includes a conduit 631 fixed to the top of the base 1, a round rod 632 sliding inside the conduit 631, the top end of the round rod 632 being fixedly connected to the support frame 61, and a spring 633 being fixed between the conduit 631 and the round rod 632.
[0039] In this embodiment, the bottom end of the conduit 631 is fixed on the base 1, and the round rod 632 slides inside the conduit 631. When the support frame 61 is subjected to the striking force of the reciprocating mechanism 64, the round rod 632 will compress the second spring 633, and the elastic force of the second spring 633 can reset the support frame 61, thus realizing the vibration of the support frame 61, thereby realizing the screening of the sliced beef.
[0040] Specifically, the reciprocating mechanism 64 includes a support base 641 fixed to the inner wall of the top of the mounting plate 2. A driven shaft 642 is rotatably connected between the inner walls of the two sides of the support base 641 via bearings. A rotating plate 643 is fixed to both ends of the driven shaft 642. A reciprocating rod 644 is movably connected to one side wall of the rotating plate 643 via a limiting T-block. Guide blocks 645 adapted to the reciprocating rod 644 are fixed to both sides of the support base 641. The reciprocating rod 644 slides on the corresponding guide blocks 645.
[0041] In this embodiment, when the driven shaft 642 rotates on the support base 641, it will drive the rotating plates 643 at both ends to rotate. After the rotating plates 643 rotate, they can drive the reciprocating rod 644 to slide up and down repeatedly through the cooperation of the limiting T-block and the guide block 645, thereby realizing the striking of the screen 62.
[0042] Specifically, a drive shaft 646 is rotatably connected between the inner walls of the two sides of the support base 641 via bearings. Synchronous pulleys 647 are fixed on the surfaces of both the drive shaft 646 and the driven shaft 642, and the two synchronous pulleys 647 are connected by a synchronous belt 648.
[0043] In this embodiment, a motor is fixed on one side wall of the support base 641, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to one end of the drive shaft 646. The drive shaft 646 rotates inside the support base 641. Through the transmission action of the synchronous pulley 647 and the synchronous belt 648, the drive shaft 646 can drive the driven shaft 642 to rotate synchronously, thereby enabling the reciprocating mechanism 64 to work normally.
[0044] Specifically, a receiving hopper 65 for guiding the sieved meat scraps is fixed between the inner walls of both sides of the support frame 61.
[0045] In this implementation plan, the screened meat scraps can be guided to the subsequent processing components.
[0046] Specifically, an extrusion molding assembly 66 for reprocessing minced meat is provided below the receiving hopper 65. The extrusion molding assembly 66 includes a lower housing 661 fixed to the top of the base 1. An upper housing 662 is rotatably connected to the lower housing 661 via bearings. A passage for minced meat to enter is opened at the top of the upper housing 662. A bidirectional electric cylinder 663 is fixed to the top of the base 1. A movable plate 664 is fixed to both ejector ends of the bidirectional electric cylinder 663. A movable rod 665 is fixed to one side wall of the movable plate 664. The other end of the movable rod 665 slides through the lower housing 661 and extends into it, where the extrusion plate 666 is fixed.
[0047] In this embodiment, the minced meat enters the cavity formed by the lower shell 661 and the upper shell 662 through the receiving hopper 65. Activating the bidirectional electric cylinder 663 drives the moving plates 664 on both sides to move synchronously. After the moving plates 664 move, they can drive the extrusion plates 666 to move through the moving rod 665. At this time, the two extrusion plates 666, which move synchronously in opposite directions, can extrude the minced meat into shape. After extrusion, the upper shell 662 can be opened to remove the extruded minced meat blocks. Therefore, the screened minced meat can be reprocessed.
[0048] Specifically, the lower housing 661 and the upper housing 662 are fixed together by a pin 667.
[0049] In this embodiment, the pin 667 is inserted into the corresponding hole of the lower housing 661 and the upper housing 662 to fix and separate the lower housing 661 and the upper housing 662. When fixed, it ensures the stability of the extrusion molding process, and when separated, it facilitates the insertion of minced meat or the removal of the molded product.
[0050] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: First, after the equipment is started, the operator can set the slicing parameters through the intelligent control panel 3 on the top of the mounting plate 2. During feeding, the frozen beef is placed inside the guide seat 51. Then, the electric push rod 52 is activated to push the pusher plate 53 forward, conveying the beef towards the slicing blade 41. At this time, the thickness of the beef slices can be adjusted by controlling the pushing speed of the electric push rod 52 through the intelligent control panel 3. During slicing, after the motor is started, the rotating shaft 422 rotates under the action of the bearing on the side wall of the U-shaped block 421. After its rotation, it can drive the drive plate 423, which is fixed at one end, to rotate. At this time, the drive plate 423 can pull the slicing blade 41 to swing back and forth around the limiting axis through the movable connection structure, achieving continuous slicing action in conjunction with the continuous conveying of beef. After slicing, the meat slices will fall onto the screen 62. At this time, the reciprocating mechanism 64 is activated to continuously strike the screen 62. Simultaneously, the support frame 6... The bottom support component 63 vibrates, causing the screen 62 to vibrate at high frequency. This separates the qualified meat slices from the minced meat. The qualified meat slices remain on the screen 62 and slide down to one side, while the minced meat falls through the screen holes into the receiving hopper 65 below. The separated minced meat is guided by the tilting action of the receiving hopper 65 and falls into the lower housing 661 of the extrusion molding component 66. Activating the bidirectional electric cylinder 663 drives the moving plates 664 on both sides to move synchronously. After the moving plates 664 move, they drive the extrusion plate 666 to move via the moving rod 665. At this time, the two extrusion plates 666, which move synchronously in opposite directions, can extrude and mold the minced meat. After extrusion, the upper housing 662 can be opened to remove the extruded fragments. Therefore, the screened minced meat can be reprocessed. The electric push rod 52, the bidirectional electric cylinder 663, and the motor used are all electrically connected to the intelligent control panel 3.
[0051] In summary, this thickness-adaptive beef slicing mechanism solves the problems of existing slicing equipment relying heavily on manual feeding and lacking the ability to screen qualified meat slices and minced meat.
