Description

Technical Field

[0002] With the increasing demands for standardization, automation, and efficiency in the food processing industry, and the growing consumer market's higher requirements for the hygiene, safety, and processing efficiency of pork products, the problems in the traditional pork singeing process are becoming increasingly prominent.

[0003] Currently, most slaughter lines still use manual singeing or simple flame guns for hair removal. Manual singeing requires operators to handle each piece by hand, which is slow, labor-intensive, and poses a significant safety hazard due to the close proximity to the flame, as operators are prone to burns. Additionally, the operator's hands need to touch the carcass during singeing, which can easily lead to contamination and affect product quality. As for simple flame guns, they can only perform one-dimensional or two-dimensional motion control, resulting in poor positioning accuracy and low automation. They cannot adapt to the three-dimensional surface of the carcass, which can easily lead to some areas of the carcass not being singed off or being charred, affecting product quality and appearance.

[0022] Figure 1 This schematic diagram illustrates the structure of an automated singeing device according to one embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 This schematic diagram illustrates the structure of a conveying device according to one embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 This schematic diagram illustrates the structure of a singeing device according to one embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1-3 As shown, the present invention provides an automated singeing device for carcasses, comprising: The singeing device 10, the conveying device 20, and the control system 30; The singeing device 10 is respectively installed on both sides of the conveying device 20. The control system 30 is connected to the singeing device 10 and the conveying device 20 respectively. The conveying device 20 is used to convey the carcass, and the singeing device 10 is used to singe both sides of the carcass respectively. The singeing device 10 includes a flame-spraying assembly 101 and a drive assembly 102. The drive assembly 102 is used to control the flame-spraying assembly 101 to move in three dimensions along the xyz axes. The control system 30 includes a control box 301 and a detection device 302. The detection device 302 is used to detect the temperature of the flame ejected by the flame-spraying assembly 101 and to detect the speed and position of the body conveyed by the conveying device 20. The control box 301 is connected to the detection device 302. The control box 301 is used to control the drive component 102 to move according to the information detected by the detection device 302, so as to control the flame-spraying component 101 to move in three-dimensional space.

[0023] Specifically, the control box 301 is respectively set on both sides of the conveying device 20, and is located on the side of the singeing device 10 away from the conveying device 20. The control box 301 can perform human-machine interaction and realize parameter setting. At the same time, the control box 301 integrates a control algorithm, which can control the drive component 102 and the flame-spraying component 101 to operate according to the information detected by the detection device 302.

[0024] The detection device 302 includes a temperature sensor 3021, a speed sensor 3022 and a position sensor 3023. The temperature sensor 3021 is mounted on the flame-spraying assembly 101, and the speed sensor 3022 and the position sensor 3023 are mounted on the conveying device 20. Temperature sensor 3021 can be configured as a thermometer or pyrometer. It is positioned near the nozzle of the flame-spraying assembly 101 and can detect the temperature of the flame emitted by the flame-spraying assembly 101. At the same time, temperature sensor 3021 is connected to control box 301. One end of the pipeline that provides gas and combustion air to the flame-spraying assembly 101 is connected to the flame-spraying assembly 101, and the other end is connected to the external gas source and compressed air compressor through control box 301. Control box 301 can control the flow rate of gas in the two pipelines according to the temperature detected by temperature sensor 3021, thereby adjusting the flame temperature after combustion to keep it stable within the optimal temperature range, ensuring that the hair on the carcass is singed cleanly and that there is no scorching.

[0025] The speed sensor 3022 can be configured as multiple spaced levers (not shown in the figure) and contact sensing elements, such as microswitches (not shown in the figure), or non-contact sensing elements, such as infrared sensors (not shown in the figure).

[0026] The lever has a return spring, and the contact sensing element can be a micro switch. The conveying device 20 includes a third conveyor belt 201. The carcass is suspended on the third conveyor belt 201 at intervals by hooks (not shown in the figure). The speed sensor 3022 is set close to the third conveyor belt 201. When the third conveyor belt 201 moves to transport the carcass, the lever can touch the hook, causing the lever to be moved away. When the hook leaves the lever position, the lever is reset by the elastic force of the return spring and hits the contact sensing element, which is then sensed. When the carcass moves to the next lever and triggers the impact, the control box 301 can calculate the carcass moving speed based on the distance between the two speed sensors 3022 and the trigger time of the two levers, and then control the drive assembly 102 to drive the flame-spraying assembly 101 to move synchronously, achieving precise singeing.

[0027] The pose sensor 3023 can be configured as a camera, located at the starting end of the conveying device 20, to capture images of the carcass. The control box 301 receives the image information and identifies the carcass posture, thereby controlling the drive component 102 to drive the flame-spraying component 101 to move in three-dimensional space, precisely matching the three-dimensional surface of the carcass. This allows the flame-spraying component 101 to singe the carcass in spaces such as behind the ears and between the hooves, ensuring complete singeing, reducing the number of manual re-singing attempts, and thus improving the overall singeing efficiency.

[0028] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the drive assembly 102 includes a first moving device 1021, a second moving device 1022, and a third moving device 1023; The second mobile device 1022 is movably disposed on the first mobile device 1021, the third mobile device 1023 is movably disposed on the second mobile device 1022, and the flame-spraying assembly 101 is movably disposed on the third mobile device 1023. The first moving device 1021 is used to control the second moving device 1022 to move vertically along the z-axis, the second moving device 1022 is used to control the third moving device 1023 to move horizontally along the y-axis, and the third moving device 1023 is used to control the flame-spraying assembly 101 to move along the x-axis towards and away from the conveying device 20.

[0029] With this configuration, the flame-spraying assembly 101 is controlled to move along the xyz axes by the first moving device 1021, the second moving device 1022, and the third moving device 1023, respectively. Compared with the one-dimensional movement along the y-axis and the two-dimensional movement along the z-axis of traditional technology, this device can achieve more precise control, better match the three-dimensional surface of the carcass, and singe the hair in complex spaces such as behind the ears and between the hooves, making the singeing of the carcass more complete.

[0030] Furthermore, Figure 4 This schematic diagram illustrates the structure of a first moving device according to one embodiment of the present invention, as shown below.

The first motor 10211 is connected to the worm gear 10216, and the worm gear 10216 is connected to the worm wheel 10215. The first motor 10211 is used to control the rotation of the worm gear 10216 to make the worm wheel 10215 rotate, and then the worm wheel 10215 drives the drive shaft 10217 to rotate to make the first conveyor belt 10212 rotate.

[0034] The first conveyor belt 10212 consists of a first pulley (not shown in the figure), a second pulley (not shown in the figure), and a first synchronous belt (not shown in the figure) wrapped around the first pulley and the second pulley. The first pulley is located close to the first crossbeam 401, and the second pulley is located away from the first crossbeam 401. The drive shaft 10217 passes through the center of the first pulley and is fixedly connected to it. When the drive shaft 10217 rotates, the first pulley rotates synchronously to move the first synchronous belt. The first slider 10213 is fixedly connected to one side of the first synchronous belt. When the first synchronous belt rotates, the first slider 10213 moves together.

[0035] Furthermore, Figure 5 This schematic diagram illustrates the structure of a second moving device according to one embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 5 As shown: The second moving device 1022 includes a second motor 10221, a second conveyor belt 10222, a second slider 10223, and a second slide rail 10224; The second slide rail 10224 is disposed between the first column 402 and the second column 403, and its two ends are respectively fixedly connected to two second sliders 10223. The second motor 10221 is mounted on the second slide rail 10224. The second conveyor belt 10222 is mounted on the second slide rail 10224 and extends along the length of the second slide rail 10224. The second slider 10223 is slidably connected to the second slide rail 10224 and fixedly connected to one side of the second conveyor belt 10222. The second motor 10221 is connected to the second conveyor belt 10222 for transmission. The second motor 10221 is used to control the movement of the second conveyor belt 10222 so that the second slider 10223 can move horizontally back and forth along the second slide rail 10224.

[0036] Specifically, the second motor 10221 is connected to the second conveyor belt 10222 via planetary gears 10225; The second conveyor belt 10222 includes a third pulley (not shown in the figure), a fourth pulley (not shown in the figure), and a second synchronous belt (not shown in the figure), which is wound around the third pulley and the fourth pulley.

The third motor 10231 is connected to the third slider 10232 in a transmission connection. The third motor 10231 is used to control the third slider 10232 to reciprocate in the direction of approaching and moving away from the conveying device 20.

[0039] Specifically, the third motor 10231 is driven by the third slider 10232 through a lead screw (not shown in the figure). The third motor 10231 controls the extension and retraction of the lead screw, thereby realizing the reciprocating movement of the third slider 10232. The flame-spraying assembly 101 is fixedly connected to the third slider 10232. When the third slider 10232 moves, the flame-spraying assembly 101 moves synchronously.

[0042] The flamethrower assembly 1012 is detachably connected to the support platform 1011. Different models of flamethrower assemblies 1012 can be replaced according to the size of the carcass to ensure complete singeing.

The first drag chain 407 and the second drag chain 408 can protect the pipeline and prevent the pipeline from getting tangled or damaged.

[0045] In summary, this utility model provides an automated singeing device for carcasses. The singeing devices 10 are respectively arranged on both sides of the conveying device 20, which can singe both sides of the carcass simultaneously, greatly improving the overall singeing efficiency. Furthermore, through the setting of the detection device 302, the speed and posture of the carcass can be detected, and the drive component can be controlled to move the flame-spraying component in three-dimensional space to align with the carcass based on the detection information. This enables automated singeing and improves singeing efficiency.
