Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of shellfish processing equipment, and in particular relates to a device and method for feeding and cleaning razor clams. Background Technology

[0002] Razor clams are a common economic shellfish along my country's coast. Their meat is tender and nutritious, rich in protein and various minerals, making them both a delicious fresh food and an important raw material for the seafood processing industry, with wide applications in the food processing sector. As a common shellfish product, razor clams require pre-processing steps such as cleaning after harvesting to meet subsequent processing needs. Traditional razor clam cleaning methods mainly rely on manual operation, which is not only labor-intensive and time-consuming, but also inefficient and physically demanding, and often results in incomplete cleaning, seriously affecting subsequent processing. While existing automated equipment can partially replace manual labor, it generally suffers from uneven feeding, easy material blockage, and poor coordination between cleaning and feeding. There is an urgent market need for a specialized cleaning and feeding device adapted to the characteristics of razor clam shells, balancing cleaning efficiency and feeding speed to improve operational efficiency and cleaning quality. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings mentioned in the background art, this utility model proposes a razor clam feeding and cleaning device and method, aiming to solve the problems of high labor intensity, low efficiency, and incomplete cleaning in existing razor clam cleaning methods. Through a stepped fixed plate and multi-stage push plate collaborative structure, uniform feeding and synchronous cleaning of razor clams are achieved. Simultaneously, an anti-clogging design prevents material accumulation, facilitating subsequent razor clam processing.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A razor clam feeding and cleaning device includes a frame, a spray head, a support plate disposed inside the frame, a material plate disposed inside the support plate, a multi-stage push plate disposed in front of the material plate, a stepped fixing plate disposed between the multi-stage push plates, a drive motor and a transmission assembly disposed below the frame, the transmission assembly including a rocker arm and a bearing connecting rod. The motor is connected to the rocker arm, the rocker arm is connected to the bearing connecting rod, the bearing connecting rod is connected to a Z-type connector via an L-type connector, the push plates at each stage are connected via Z-type connectors, the stepped fixing plate is fixed between the support plates, an anti-clogging gap is provided between the stepped fixing plate and the push plates at each stage, and the multi-stage push plate assembly and the stepped fixing plate assembly are parallel to each other.

[0006] Preferably, the width of the multi-stage push plate is slightly smaller than the width of the stepped fixing plate.

[0007] Preferably, the end face of the stepped fixing plate is inclined.

[0008] Preferably, the spray head is fixed on the frame, and the end faces of the multi-stage push plate assembly and the stepped fixing plate are aligned with the spray head.

[0009] Preferably, the stepped fixing plate is provided with anti-clogging through holes.

[0010] Beneficial Effects: This utility model employs a multi-stage pusher plate and a stepped fixing plate to form a collaborative feeding and cleaning structure. The multi-stage pusher plate sequentially moves the razor clams, gradually achieving four-sided rotation and feeding. During the feeding process, the water spray head is activated, and high-pressure water directly washes away the mud and sand on the surface of the razor clams. Wastewater is discharged directionally through anti-clogging gaps and anti-clogging holes into a wastewater collection tank, avoiding secondary pollution. This solves the problems of uneven feeding, blind spots in cleaning, and high reliance on manual labor in razor clam processing, achieving uniform feeding and simultaneous cleaning of razor clams.

Detailed Implementation

[0015] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. These descriptions are intended to help understand the technical solution of the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention as defined by the appended claims.

[0016] refer to Figures 1-3The razor clam feeding and cleaning device includes a frame 10, two water spray heads 9 mounted above the frame 10, a material plate 2 mounted below the frame 10, two support plates 1 mounted on both sides of the frame 10, a first push plate 601 mounted in front of the material plate 2, a first fixed plate 501 mounted in front of the first push plate 601, a second push plate 602 mounted in front of the first fixed plate 501, a second fixed plate 502 mounted in front of the second push plate 602, a third push plate 603 mounted in front of the second fixed plate 502, a third fixed plate 503 mounted in front of the third push plate 603, and a motor 3 mounted at the lower end of the frame 10. A rocker arm 401 is connected to a bearing connecting rod 402, which is connected to an L-shaped connector 801 and a Z-shaped connector 802. A first push plate 601 and a second push plate 602 are connected via a Z-shaped connector 802, as are a second push plate 602 and a third push plate 603. Anti-clogging gaps are provided between a first fixed plate 501 and a first push plate 601, between a second fixed plate 502 and a second push plate 602, and between a third fixed plate 503 and a third push plate 603. The multi-stage push plates 6 and the stepped fixed plates 5 are parallel to each other. The reciprocating motion of the push plates serves as the driving force, and gravity and a fixed plate at a specific angle are cleverly utilized to automatically flip the razor clams, ensuring that their four outer surfaces are sequentially aligned with the high-pressure water jet, thus efficiently and thoroughly completing the cleaning operation on a single production line.

[0017] The specific working process of this utility model is as follows: The razor clams to be cleaned are placed on an inclined material plate. The motor is started, and its rotational motion is converted into the linear reciprocating motion of the push plate through the rocker arm and connecting rod, thereby pushing the razor clams to move upward step by step. During the upward process, the razor clams will pass through four precisely designed stations, and the four surfaces will be cleaned in sequence.

[0018] At station one, the top of the clam is cleaned. When the mechanism reaches its lowest point, the first push plate catches the razor clams sliding down from the loading plate. At this point, the top of the clam is exposed, facing the high-pressure water jet, receiving its first rinse. At station two, the right side is cleaned. The motor drives the mechanism to its highest point, the first push plate retracts, and the clam slides down to a smaller first fixed plate due to gravity. The inclined design of this fixed plate causes the clam to naturally flip over, presenting its right side to the water jet, completing the second rinse. At station three, the bottom is cleaned. The motor continues to run, and the second push plate moves below the fixed plate to catch the clam. This receiving action causes the clam to flip over again, its original bottom facing up, facing the water jet, receiving its third rinse. At station four, the left side is cleaned. The second push plate returns to its original position and rises, and the clam slides down to the second fixed plate. Using the same inclined principle, the clam finally exposes its left side, completing the final rinse.

[0019] After being cleaned on all four sides, the razor clams are pushed upwards by a pusher plate and finally discharged from the top, achieving continuous automated feeding and cleaning. Wastewater generated during the entire cleaning process is effectively collected in a wastewater tank at the bottom through carefully designed anti-clogging gaps and through-holes, ensuring the cleanliness of the working area and preventing pipe blockage.

[0020] It should be noted that this specific embodiment is merely a preferred example of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention, in accordance with the claims of this application, should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
