Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of meat product processing technology, specifically a meat product baking and slicing machine. Background Technology

[0002] In the food processing industry, meat product cutting is a crucial step, especially for products like beef jerky and dried meat that need to be made into strips or blocks. The efficiency and quality of the cutting operation directly affect subsequent processing and the quality of the final product. To achieve industrialized mass production, meat product cutting machines are widely used in this process. Their core principle is to use the coordinated action of multiple sets of disc cutters to evenly cut the conveyed meat products into preset strips, blocks, and other shapes, significantly improving the automation level and production efficiency of the cutting operation.

[0003] In the prior art, meat product slicing machines typically use a conveyor belt as the conveying mechanism to achieve stable feeding of meat products in order to complete the automatic and continuous slicing operation of meat products. At the same time, a disc cutter and a vertically retractable cutter are set above the conveyor belt. The disc cutter is mainly used to cut the meat products into slices first, while the vertically retractable cutter further cuts the sliced ​​meat products into strips. The processing from whole pieces of meat to strips is completed through the cooperation of the two processes.

[0004] However, in actual production operations, the above structure has significant drawbacks: because both the disc cutter and the telescopic cutter are positioned above the conveyor belt, and to avoid rigid collisions between the cutters and the conveyor belt surface that could damage the equipment, a certain gap is inevitable between the cutters and the conveyor belt surface. This gap means that when cutting meat products, especially when the meat products are thin or soft, the cutters cannot completely cut through them, resulting in some meat products remaining connected, forming defective connected products. These connected products not only require secondary manual processing, increasing labor costs and production steps, but also affect the continuity of the production line, reduce overall production efficiency, and in severe cases, even cause production interruptions due to equipment blockage caused by connected products. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned shortcomings, this utility model provides a meat product baking strip cutting machine. The strip cutting machine has a first cutting box and a second cutting box distributed vertically. The first cutting mechanism in the first cutting box continuously rotates and cuts the meat product into slices and drops them into the second cutting box. The second cutting mechanism in the second cutting box performs intermittent linear motion and cuts the slices into strips, realizing the automated strip cutting operation of meat products and avoiding a series of problems caused by incomplete cutting.

[0006] This utility model is implemented as follows: a meat product baking and slicing machine is constructed, including a first slitting box, which is horizontally supported by a frame and has a feeding hopper at the top; The second cutting box is located at the bottom of the first cutting box and remains connected; The first slitting mechanism is installed inside the first slitting box and continues to rotate. The second slitting mechanism is located inside the second slitting box and maintains intermittent linear motion.

[0007] Preferably, the first slitting mechanism includes a rotating shaft and two disc cutters spaced apart at the outer end of the rotating shaft. The rotating shafts are installed in parallel and at the same height in the first slitting box and rotate. The disc cutters on the two rotating shafts are staggered.

[0008] Preferably, the ends of the two rotating shafts extend to the outer end of the first slitting box, and gears are respectively fitted on the two rotating shafts at the outer end of the first slitting box. The two gears maintain meshing transmission, and either rotating shaft is driven by a drive motor preset on the frame.

[0009] Preferably, the second slitting mechanism includes a mounting plate and slitting blades evenly arranged on the mounting plate. There are two mounting plates, which are arranged opposite each other in the second slitting box. The slitting blades are distributed vertically on the opposite surfaces of the two mounting plates and are staggered. A guide post is provided on the back of the mounting plate away from the slitting blades. The guide post passes through the second slitting box and slides in a straight line. A linear telescopic device is provided on the outside of the second slitting box. The telescopic end of the linear telescopic device is inserted into the second slitting box and is fixedly connected to the mounting plate.

[0010] Preferably, the second slitting box has opposing guide plates inside. The guide plates include an inclined section and a vertical section. The guide plates are fixed to the top of the inner end of the second slitting box via the inclined section. The vertical section of the guide plate is located inside the second slitting box and maintains a distance from the inner wall of the second slitting box. Knife grooves are spaced apart on the vertical section of the guide plate. The mounting plate is located in the gap between the guide plates and the inner wall of the second slitting box and maintains the slitting knife corresponding to the knife groove. When the linear telescopic device extends, it drives the slitting knife to pass through the knife groove and be positioned between the two guide plates. When the linear telescopic device retracts, it drives the slitting knife to pass through the knife groove and be positioned between the guide plates and the inner wall of the second slitting box.

[0011] Preferably, a discharge hopper is also provided at the bottom of the second cutting box.

[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: Completely solve the problem of incomplete cutting This slicing machine uses a first slicing mechanism that rotates continuously inside the first slicing box to slice the meat products. The sliced ​​meat products then fall directly into the second slicing box, where they are cut into strips by the second slicing mechanism that moves intermittently in a straight line. Throughout the process, the meat products are in a closed space inside the slicing box, and the cutting action does not rely on the conveyor belt surface for support. This fundamentally avoids the problem of continuous cutting caused by gaps between the blades and the conveyor belt surface, ensuring that each cut completely severs the meat products and significantly improving the product qualification rate.

[0013] Improve automation and production efficiency The continuous rotation of the first cutting mechanism and the intermittent linear motion of the second cutting mechanism work in synergy to achieve a fully automated processing flow from whole pieces of meat to slices and then to strips. No secondary processing by manual labor is required, reducing labor costs and avoiding the risk of production interruptions caused by manual operation, effectively improving the continuity of the production line and overall production efficiency.

[0014] Enhance equipment operational stability In traditional structures, improper control of the gap between the cutting tool and the conveyor belt surface can easily lead to equipment collision damage. However, the independent design of the first and second cutting boxes in this technical solution allows the cutting action to be completed in a relatively enclosed space, reducing direct rigid contact between components, reducing equipment wear and failure rate, extending equipment service life, and improving stability and reliability during operation.

[0018] As described in the background section, existing meat product slicing machines use conveyor belts to transport meat products. Because there is a gap between the cutter above the conveyor belt and the surface of the conveyor belt, the meat products cannot be completely cut during the slicing process, thus making it impossible to achieve automated slicing operation.

[0019] For the reasons stated above, please refer to the appendix. Figure 1 ~Appendix Figure 4 This utility model provides a meat product baking strip cutting machine, including a first cutting box 3, which is horizontally supported by a frame 1 and has a feeding hopper 2 at the top; The second cutting box 7 is located at the bottom of the first cutting box 3 and is kept in communication; The first slitting mechanism is installed inside the first slitting box 3 and keeps rotating continuously; The second slitting mechanism is located inside the second slitting box 7 and maintains intermittent linear motion.

[0020] Please refer to the appendix. Figure 1 ~Appendix Figure 4 In order to achieve automated slicing of meat products to facilitate subsequent slicing, in this embodiment, the first slicing mechanism includes a rotating shaft 4 and disc cutters 11 arranged at the outer end of the rotating shaft 4 with gaps. There are two rotating shafts 4, which are installed in parallel and at the same height in the first slicing box 3 and keep rotating. The disc cutters 11 on the two rotating shafts 4 are staggered.

[0021] In this embodiment, the ends of the two rotating shafts 4 extend to the outer end of the first slitting box 3, and gears 6 are respectively fitted on the two rotating shafts 4 at the outer end of the first slitting box 3. The two gears 6 maintain meshing transmission, and any one of the rotating shafts 4 is driven by a drive motor 5 preset on the frame 1.

[0022] Please refer to the appendix again. Figure 1 ~Appendix Figure 4 To automate the slicing of fallen meat pieces, in this embodiment, the second slicing mechanism includes a mounting plate 12 and slicing blades 13 evenly arranged on the mounting plate 12. There are two mounting plates 12, which are arranged opposite each other in the second slicing box 7. The slicing blades 13 are arranged vertically on the opposite surfaces of the two mounting plates 12 and are staggered. A guide post 9 is provided on the back of the mounting plate 12 away from the slicing blades 13. The guide post 9 passes through the second slicing box 7 and slides in a straight line. A linear telescopic device 8 is provided on the outside of the second slicing box 7. The telescopic end of the linear telescopic device 8 is inserted into the second slicing box 7 and is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 12.

[0023] Furthermore, the linear telescopic device 8 can be an automatically controlled cylinder or electronic push rod. In actual use, in order to ensure that the meat slices can be cut, the linear telescopic devices at both ends keep operating synchronously (i.e., extend or retract at the same time).

[0024] Please refer to the appendix. Figure 3 ~Appendix Figure 5 To further automate the slicing of the fallen meat pieces, in this embodiment, a guide plate 7.1 is provided inside the second cutting box 7, facing each other. The guide plate 7.1 includes an inclined section and a vertical section. The guide plate 7.1 is fixed to the top of the inner end of the second cutting box 7 through the inclined section. The vertical section of the guide plate 7.1 is located inside the second cutting box 7 and maintains a distance from the inner wall of the second cutting box 7. A knife groove 7.2 is provided at intervals on the vertical section of the guide plate 7.1. The mounting plate 12 is located in the gap between the guide plate 7.1 and the inner wall of the second cutting box 7 and keeps the cutting blade 13 aligned with the knife groove 7.2. When the linear telescopic device 8 extends, it drives the cutting blade 13 to pass through the knife groove 7.2 and be positioned between the two guide plates 7.1. When the linear telescopic device 8 retracts, it drives the cutting blade 13 to pass through the knife groove 7.2 and be positioned between the guide plate 7.1 and the inner wall of the second cutting box 7.

[0025] In this embodiment, a discharge hopper 10 is also provided at the bottom of the second cutting box 7.

[0026] In operation, the drive motor 5 is pre-started to rotate the two rotating shafts 4. Due to the transmission of the gear 6, the two rotating shafts 4 rotate in opposite directions. Under this condition, the meat products in the feed hopper 2 are squeezed and fall through the gap between the two rotating shafts 4. Under the rotation of the disc cutter 11, the meat pieces are cut into slices. After cutting, the slices fall through the gap between the two rotating shafts 4 into the second cutting box 7. At this time, the linear telescopic device 8 extends simultaneously and cuts the slices through the cutting blades 13 at both ends, thus cutting them into strips. After cutting, the linear telescopic device 8 drives the cutting blades 13 to retract. After the cutting blades 13 pass through the blade grooves 7.2, the cut meat strips are blocked by the gap between the blade grooves and fall into the discharge hopper 10 under the action of gravity, thus completing the automated strip cutting operation.

[0027] The above description is a detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present utility model. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the patent application of the present utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made under the technical spirit of the present utility model should fall within the patent scope covered by the present utility model.
