Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dough processing technology, specifically to an automatic dough cutting device. Background Technology
[0002] In the food processing industry, dough slitting is a crucial step in the production of bread, pastries, and other wheat-based foods. The efficiency and precision of slitting directly affect the quality of the food and production efficiency. Traditional dough slitting methods rely heavily on manual operation, which is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also makes it difficult to maintain consistent weight and size, resulting in inconsistent product quality and failing to meet the demands of large-scale, standardized production in modern food industries.
[0003] With the application of automation technology in the food processing industry, automatic dough cutting devices have emerged. However, existing automatic cutting devices still have many shortcomings in structural design and functional implementation. The feeding system of some devices lacks stability, easily leading to dough jamming and uneven feeding, affecting the cutting rhythm; the cutting accuracy of the cutting unit is difficult to control precisely, resulting in significant differences in the dimensions of the cut dough; furthermore, the overall structure of the device is complex, maintenance costs are high, and it is difficult to adapt to diverse production needs. Therefore, developing an automatic dough cutting device with a reasonable structure, precise cutting, and stable feeding is of great significance for improving the automation level and production quality of the food processing industry.

[0022] 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.
[0023] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic dough cutting device, including a cutting shell 1 and a motor 2. The motor 2 is disposed on the side of the cutting shell 1, and a cutting mechanism is disposed on the inner side of the cutting shell 1. The cutting mechanism includes a feeding unit and a cutting unit. The cutting unit is installed on the inner side of the cutting shell 1, and the feeding unit is installed on the inner side of the cutting shell 1.
[0024] The slitting unit includes a drive shaft 3, which is connected to the output device of a motor 2. A compound double gear 17 is movably connected to the outer surface of the drive shaft 3. A driven gear 19 meshes with the side of the compound double gear 17. A central shaft 20 is disposed inside the driven gear 19. A T-gear 18 is connected to the outer surface of the central shaft 20 and to the side of the driven gear 19. A connecting plate 16 is disposed on the side of the compound double gear 17. An electric telescopic rod 15 is disposed on the side of the connecting plate 16. A cutting blade 21 is disposed on the outer surface of the central shaft 20 and to the other side of the driven gear 19. Thus, by installing the slitting... The cutting unit then moves the dough towards the end of the cutting housing 1 by placing the dough inside. When the size of the dough cut needs to be adjusted, the electric telescopic rod 15 is activated, which pushes the connecting plate 16, thereby driving the compound double gear 17 to move on the outer surface of the transmission shaft 3. This changes the transmission connection mode of the compound double gear 17, further adjusting the rotation speed of the central shaft 20, thereby changing the cutting cycle of the cutting blade 21, and thus controlling and adjusting the size of the dough.
[0025] Driven gear 19 is fixedly connected to T-gear 18, so that when the small gear on the side of compound double gear 17 meshes with driven gear 19, T-gear 18 also rotates. Similarly, when T-gear 18 meshes with the large gear of compound double gear 17, driven gear 19 also rotates.
[0026] The feeding unit includes a first transmission belt assembly 4, which is driven to the outer surface of the transmission shaft 3. The other end of the first transmission belt assembly 4 is driven to a rotating shaft 5, and the other end of the rotating shaft 5 is driven to a second transmission belt assembly 6. The other end of the second transmission belt assembly 6 is driven to a rotating shaft 7. A movable sleeve 8 is movably engaged with the outer surface of the rotating shaft 7. A push plate 9 is connected to the end face of the movable sleeve 8, located inside the cutting housing 1. A limit rod 11 is movably connected to the inner side of the push plate 9. A top plate 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the limit rod 11. A spring 13 is provided on the inner side of the top of the top plate 12 and the top of the push plate 9. The bottom of the limit rod 11... A pressure plate 14 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the push plate 9. By installing the feeding unit, the dough to be cut is placed inside the cutting housing 1. When the motor 2 starts, the motor 2 drives the transmission shaft 3, which in turn drives the transmission belt assembly 4, causing the rotating shaft 5 to rotate. The transmission belt assembly 6 then drives the rotating shaft 7 to rotate, which in turn drives the movable sleeve 8 to move on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 7. The movable sleeve 8 then pushes the dough inside the cutting housing 1 toward the side of the cutting housing 1, and the cutting unit then cuts the dough.
[0027] The internal structure of the cutting housing 1 is movably connected to a slide rod 10, which limits the movement trajectory of the push plate 9.
[0028] The outer surface of the rotating shaft 7 is provided with a threaded line, and the inner side of the movable sleeve 8 is provided with a threaded hole that matches the threaded line on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 7. Thus, the rotating shaft 7 rotates, causing the movable sleeve 8 to engage and move on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 7, thereby pushing the push plate 9 and then moving the dough.
[0029] Scrapers are provided on both sides of the push plate 9, which can scrape off the dough adhering to the inner wall of the cutting shell 1, so as to avoid affecting the normal movement of the push plate 9 during subsequent processing.
[0030] The cutting blade 21 is connected by a top cover, which allows for quick disassembly of the cutting blade 21, making it easy to replace and repair the cutting blade 21.
[0031] The inner side of the cutting shell 1 is a smooth surface, which prevents the dough from sticking to the inner wall of the cutting shell 1 and thus affecting the subsequent cutting process.
[0032] Working principle: When the device is working, the motor 2 starts and drives the transmission shaft 3 to rotate. On one hand, the transmission belt assembly 4, the rotating shaft 5, and the transmission belt assembly 6 drive the rotating shaft 7 to rotate. Because the threaded line on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 7 matches the threaded hole on the inner side of the movable sleeve 8, the movable sleeve 8 engages and moves on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 7, pushing the push plate 9 to push the dough placed in the cutting housing 1 to the side. On the other hand, the transmission shaft 3 drives the compound double gear 17 to rotate. When it is necessary to adjust the size of the dough cutting, the electric telescopic rod 15 is activated to push the connecting plate 16, which drives the compound double gear 17 to move on the outer surface of the transmission shaft 3 to change the transmission connection mode, adjust the rotation speed of the central shaft 20, and thus change the rotation cutting cycle of the cutting blade 21. At the same time, the driven gear 19 is fixedly connected to the T-shaped gear 18. The compound double gear 17 achieves different transmission effects through different meshing combinations with the driven gear 19 and the T-shaped gear 18. The scrapers on both sides of the push plate 9 can scrape off the dough attached to the inner wall of the cutting shell 1. The slide bar 10 limits the movement trajectory of the push plate 9. The cutting blade 21 is connected by a top cover for easy replacement and maintenance. The smooth inner surface of the cutting shell 1 prevents dough from sticking, so as to ensure that the cutting work is carried out smoothly.
