Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cutting and thawing devices, in particular to a pre-cutting and thawing device for frozen foods. Background Art

[0002] A pre-cutting and thawing device for frozen foods is a device used for pre-cutting and assisting in thawing frozen foods. "Thawing" in the frozen food processing scenario usually refers to processing frozen foods to break their hard frozen state, making it convenient for subsequent processing. It does not completely thaw to room temperature, only reduces the hardness of the food, and does not involve a large amount of ice crystal melting. It can not only maintain the freshness of the food but also meet the processing requirements.

[0003] In existing pre-cutting and thawing devices for frozen meat, there are often the following disadvantages:

[0004] First, most devices lack an automated pushing structure (such as the device with the model number GOSSOO / High Lion - GS - DR001). Operators need to manually push the frozen meat, which is not only inefficient but also difficult to ensure the consistency of the pushing distance each time, resulting in uneven cutting thickness and unable to accurately cut different specifications such as thick slices and thin slices.

[0005] Second, the operation of the cutting thickness adjustment function of the above devices is complex and difficult to quickly meet diverse cutting requirements. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a pre-cutting and thawing device for frozen foods to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model

[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the disadvantages existing in the prior art, and propose a pre-cutting and thawing device for frozen foods.

[0007] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:

[0008] A pre-cutting and thawing device for frozen foods includes a base. The top surface of the base is provided with frozen meat. A PLC controller is fixedly installed on one side of the base. It also includes a quantitative pushing component for quantitatively pushing the frozen meat. The quantitative pushing component is arranged on the top surface of the base. The quantitative pushing component includes: a placement table fixedly installed on the top surface of the base. A first limiting hole is opened on one side of the placement table. A moving block is movably sleeved inside the first limiting hole. A push plate is fixedly installed on the top surface of the moving block. A threaded hole is opened on one side of the moving block. A threaded column is threadedly connected to the inner wall surface of the threaded hole. A driving motor is fixedly installed outside the placement table. One end of the driving shaft of the driving motor is fixedly installed with the threaded column. A sensor is fixedly installed on one side inside the placement table. A control button is arranged on the top surface of the placement table.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a fixed bracket is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base, a cutting blade is hinged to one side of the fixed bracket, a limiting post is fixedly installed on one side of the cutting blade, and a second limiting hole is opened on one side of the fixed bracket, the second limiting hole being movably connected to the limiting post.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a connecting shaft frame is fixedly installed on one side of the placement platform, and a handrail pressure plate is rotatably connected to the outside of the connecting shaft frame. One side of the handle of the handrail pressure plate is fixedly installed with the control button, and the drive motor, the control button and the sensor are all electrically connected to the PLC controller.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the placement platform has several discharge holes on both sides inside, and several discharge holes are respectively opened at the bottom of the placement platform.

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a number of support legs are fixedly installed at the bottom of the interior of the placement platform, the support legs are fixedly installed to the top surface of the base, and a number of reinforcing ribs are fixedly sleeved inside the placement platform.

[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a limiting plate is fixedly installed on one side of the placement platform, and the limiting plate is movably sleeved with the threaded column.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] By using the base, frozen meat, placement platform, first limiting hole, and moving block in coordination, the frozen meat can be cut and thawed. The drive motor, push plate, control buttons, and sensors work together to move the frozen meat automatically or manually, and the range of movement is adjustable, allowing for adjustment of the cutting thickness. This makes it convenient to cut thick slices, thin slices, or halves, and the adjustment settings are simple. The handle pressure plate presses down on the frozen meat to ensure stability during cutting, and the fixed feet and limiting posts limit the rotation trajectory of the cutting blade to prevent excessive shaking, making it quite practical.

A PLC controller is fixedly installed on one side of the base 1. The device also includes a quantitative pushing component for quantitatively pushing the frozen meat 2. The quantitative pushing component is disposed on the top surface of the base 1 and includes a placement platform 3, which is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base 1. A first limiting hole 4 is opened on one side of the placement platform 3. A moving block 5 is movably sleeved inside the first limiting hole 4. A push plate 8 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the moving block 5. A threaded hole 6 is opened on one side of the moving block 5. A threaded post 7 is threadedly connected to the inner circular wall of the threaded hole 6. A drive motor 9 is fixedly installed on the outside of the placement platform 3. One end of the drive shaft of the drive motor 9 is fixedly installed with the threaded post 7. A sensor 19 is fixedly installed on one side of the inside of the placement platform 3. The sensor 19 can be a photoelectric sensor, etc., to detect objects passing through it. A control button 10 is provided on the top surface of the placement platform 3.

[0027] In this embodiment, a fixed bracket 17 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base 1. A cutting blade 16 is hinged to one side of the fixed bracket 17. A limiting post 18 is fixedly installed on one side of the cutting blade 16. A second limiting hole 21 is opened on one side of the fixed bracket 17. The second limiting hole 21 is movably sleeved with the limiting post 18. A connecting shaft bracket 11 is fixedly installed on one side of the placement platform 3. A handrail pressure plate 12 is rotatably connected to the outside of the connecting shaft bracket 11. One side of the handle of the handrail pressure plate 12 is fixedly installed with the control button 10. The drive motor 9, the control button 10 and the sensor 19 are all electrically connected to the PLC controller.

[0028] In this embodiment, several discharge holes 13 are provided on both sides of the interior of the placement platform 3, and several discharge holes 14 are provided on the bottom of the placement platform 3. Several support feet 15 are fixedly installed on the bottom of the interior of the placement platform 3. The support feet 15 are fixedly installed on the top surface of the base 1. Several reinforcing ribs 20 are fixedly sleeved inside the placement platform 3. A limiting plate 22 is fixedly installed on one side of the placement platform 3. The limiting plate 22 is movably sleeved with the threaded column 7.

[0029] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiments of this utility model achieve the following technical effects:

[0030] With the base 1 in place, when the user needs to cut the frozen meat 2 to break its hard frozen state for subsequent processing, the frozen meat 2 is placed inside the placement platform 3. The user holds the cutting blade 16 and blocks one end of the frozen meat 2, so that the frozen meat 2 is against one side of the cutting blade 16. Then, the user holds the handle of the handrail pressure plate 12 and presses and holds the control button 10 to start the drive motor 9 to drive the threaded column 7 to rotate. The rotating threaded column 7 and the threaded hole 6 convert the rotational motion into linear motion, so that the moving block 5 moves inside the first limiting hole 4 and drives the push plate 8 to abut one side of the frozen meat 2. At the same time, it should be noted that during production, silicone sheets can be symmetrically placed at the bottom of the V-shaped groove of the placement platform 3. The two are staggered and block the top of the first limiting hole 4 to prevent debris from directly entering the first limiting hole 4. At the same time, the movement of the push plate 8 can push the silicone sheets away without affecting the use of the equipment.

[0031] Afterwards, the cutting blade 16 is moved upwards, and the control button 10 is pressed once. This causes the push plate 8 to move the frozen meat 2. Each press causes the drive motor 9 to drive the threaded column 7 to rotate a certain number of times, so that the push plate 8 moves the frozen meat 2 a certain distance. Thus, the number of rotations of the drive motor 9 can be set by the PLC controller to control the single displacement of the frozen meat 2. The adjustment setting is simple, thereby adjusting the cutting thickness of the frozen meat 2 by the cutting blade 16. Then, the frozen meat 2 can be cut by the cutting blade 16. While cutting, the frozen meat 2 is pressed down and fixed by holding the handle of the handrail pressure plate 12. After a single cut (slice) is completed, the sensor 19 senses that the cutting blade 16 has moved past it from one side, and the PLC controller automatically starts the drive motor 9 to drive the threaded column 7 to rotate for pushing. Alternatively, the drive motor 9 can be manually started by pressing the control button 10. During cutting, the cutting blade 16 is limited by the limit post 18 and the fixed foot 17, which is quite practical.

[0032] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
