[0024] 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.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0026] A flexible and adjustable automatic seafood shredder includes a slitting assembly for cutting seafood. The slitting assembly includes a symmetrically arranged first rotating roller 1 and a second rotating roller 2. A first ring cutter 3 is screwed onto the center of the first rotating roller 1. Two sets of second ring cutters 4 are arranged on both sides of the first ring cutter 3. Two sets of third ring cutters 5 are symmetrically mounted on the surface of the second rotating roller 2. The third ring cutters 5 are staggered with the first ring cutter 3 and the second ring cutters 4. The first rotating roller 1 and the second rotating roller 2 are rotatably mounted in a cutting box 9. One end of the first rotating roller 1 and the second rotating roller 2 passes through the cutting box 9 and a limit ring 10 is fixedly installed on the outside of the cutting box 9. The other end of the first rotating roller 1 and the second rotating roller 2 is rotatably connected to the cutting box 9 and respectively connected to the output ends of two sets of motors 11. The motors 11 are fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the cutting box 9. The motors 11 are electrically connected to a controller, which uses an industrial-grade MCU as the main control core, and is equipped with a power supply, motor 11 drive, adjustment assembly control, human-machine interaction, and information... The internal structure consists of five functional modules for data acquisition and feedback, along with a protective casing: the power module provides a stable 5V / 12V voltage to each module through AC-DC conversion, voltage regulation, and isolation, and has overvoltage and overcurrent protection; the motor 11 drive module uses a driver chip and PWM signal to adjust the speed of the rotating roller motor 11, and combines current sampling and optocoupler isolation to ensure stable operation; the adjustment component control module uses a stepper motor 11 driver, encoder, and relay to precisely control the bidirectional lead screw to move the ring cutter and lock the cutter distance; the human-machine interaction module uses button / knob input, LED display, and alarm unit to realize operation and status feedback; the whole system realizes equipment command parsing, precise control, and safety protection, supporting the flexible adjustment and efficient operation of the shredder; among them, two sets of cutting components can be vertically installed in the cutting box 9, and the two sets of cutting components are connected by a material guide component. When dealing with large seafood products, the upper cutting component cuts the seafood into strips, and the lower cutting component cuts it into shreds, which can be done sequentially.

[0027] The slitting assembly is the core component for slicing seafood (such as squid slices) into shreds. The slitting assembly completes the cutting action through a specific blade layout and rotational coordination. The first rotating roller 1 and the second rotating roller 2, which are symmetrically arranged in the slitting assembly, provide the mounting and rotation carriers for the blades. When the two sets of rotating rollers rotate synchronously in opposite directions under the drive of the motor 11, they drive the surface ring blades to form a shearing force. The first ring blade 3, which is fixed in the middle of the first rotating roller 1, and the second ring blades 4, which are movable on both sides, and the third ring blades 5, which are symmetrically installed on the surface of the second rotating roller 2, are staggered. This layout can accurately cut the squid slices that enter between the two sets of rotating rollers into shreds. The staggered structure can avoid the food getting stuck during cutting, ensuring the continuity and integrity of the shreds. It is the key structure for the equipment to realize the shredding function.

[0028] It also includes an adjustment assembly for cutting size, which includes a first bidirectional lead screw 6 and a second bidirectional lead screw 7. Two sets of first movable seats 8 are symmetrically mounted on the surface of the first bidirectional lead screw 6. The first movable seats 8 are fixed to the second ring cutter 4 by screws. Two sets of second movable seats 23 are symmetrically mounted on the surface of the second bidirectional lead screw 7. The second movable seats 23 are fixed to the third ring cutter 5 by screws.

[0029] The core of the equipment's "flexible adjustment" of cutting dimensions lies in the adjustment component, which solves the problem of traditional shredders requiring blade disassembly to adjust the wire diameter. The first bidirectional lead screw 6 and the second bidirectional lead screw 7 in the adjustment component correspond to the blade adjustment of the first rotating roller 1 and the second rotating roller 2, respectively. Two sets of first movable seats 8 on the surface of the first bidirectional lead screw 6 are fixed to the second ring blade 4; rotating the lead screw can drive the two sets of second ring blades 4 to move towards or away from each other along the axial direction of the first rotating roller 1. Similarly, two sets of second movable seats 23 on the surface of the second bidirectional lead screw 7 are fixed to the third ring blade 5; similarly, they can drive the third ring blade 5 to move. By adjusting the first bidirectional lead screw 6 and the second bidirectional lead screw 7, the distance between adjacent ring blades (i.e., blade spacing) can be precisely changed, thus adapting to different shredding requirements. Furthermore, the adjustment process does not require disassembly of the slitting component, significantly improving processing efficiency and equipment applicability.

[0030] The top of the cutting box 9 is provided with the feeding port 20. The discharge inclined plate 21 is fixedly installed inside the cutting box 9. The discharge inclined plate 21 is located below the slitting assembly. The bottom of one side of the cutting box 9 is provided with the discharge port 22. The bottom of the discharge inclined plate 21 is fixedly connected to the discharge port 22.

[0031] The cutting box 9 serves as the overall installation and protective carrier for the equipment, while also undertaking the functions of food conveying and finished product collection. The interior of the cutting box 9 provides a stable installation space for cutting components such as the first rotating roller 1 and the second rotating roller 2. The feeding port 20 at the top facilitates the operation of operators or conveying mechanisms to put the pre-treated squid slices into the cutting area, ensuring that the food accurately enters between the two sets of rotating rollers. The internally fixed discharge inclined plate 21 is located below the slitting component, which can receive the cut squid shreds and guide them to the discharge port 22 at the bottom side through the inclined structure, so as to achieve orderly collection of finished products and prevent the shreds from piling up.

[0032] The second ring cutter 4 is slidably engaged with the surface of the first rotating roller 1. The first bidirectional lead screw 6 is rotatably installed in the first adjustment groove 12 opened on one side of the first rotating roller 1. The first movable seat 8 is slidably engaged with the first adjustment groove 12. The first adjustment seat 13 is fixedly installed at one end of the first rotating roller 1. The first adjustment nut 14 is rotatably installed in the first adjustment seat 13. The first adjustment nut 14 is coaxially arranged and fixedly connected with the first bidirectional lead screw 6. The first tightening screw 15 is threadedly installed on one side of the first adjustment seat 13. The first tightening screw 15 abuts against the first adjustment nut 14. The third ring cutter 5 slides on the surface of the second rotating roller 2. The second bidirectional lead screw 7 is rotatably installed in the second adjustment groove 16 opened on one side of the second rotating roller 2. The second moving seat 23 slides on the second adjustment groove 16. The second adjustment seat 17 is fixedly installed at one end of the second rotating roller 2. The second adjustment nut 18 is rotatably installed in the second adjustment seat 17. The second adjustment nut 18 is coaxially arranged and fixedly connected with the second bidirectional lead screw 7. The second tightening screw 19 is threaded on one side of the second adjustment seat 17 and abuts against the second adjustment nut 18.

[0033] The first clamping screw 15 and the second clamping screw 19 are key components to ensure the stability of the blade distance after adjustment, preventing the blade distance from shifting due to vibration during equipment operation. Tightening the first clamping screw 15 or the second clamping screw 19 allows its end to abut against the surface of the first adjusting nut 14 or the second adjusting nut 18, limiting rotation through friction, thereby fixing the position of the first bidirectional lead screw 6 or the second bidirectional lead screw 7, preventing the blade from shifting during rotation, ensuring that the blade distance remains at the set value during the cutting process, and ensuring the consistency of the shredded size.

[0034] In practical use, after moving the device to the designated position, first loosen the first clamping screw 15 on the first adjusting seat 13 and the second clamping screw 19 on the second adjusting seat 17. Then, rotate the first adjusting nut 14 to drive the first bidirectional lead screw 6 to rotate, causing the first moving seat 8 to pull the two sets of second ring cutters 4 to move towards or away from each other along the first adjusting groove 12. At the same time, rotate the second adjusting nut 18 to drive the second bidirectional lead screw 7 to rotate, causing the second moving seat 23 to pull the two sets of third ring cutters 5 to move along the second adjusting groove 16. After measuring and confirming that the cutter distance has reached the target value, retighten the first, second, and third clamping screws 15 and 19. The second clamping screw 19 locks the blade distance; then the pre-treated squid slices are evenly fed into the feeding port 20 at the top of the cutting box 9. The controller will drive two sets of motors 11 to drive the first rotating roller 1 and the second rotating roller 2 to rotate synchronously in opposite directions. The first ring blade 3, the second ring blade 4 and the third ring blade 5, which are distributed in an alternating manner, form a shearing force to cut the squid slices into shreds. The cut squid shreds will fall onto the discharge inclined plate 21 below the slitting component and slide along the inclined plate to the discharge port 22 at the bottom of one side of the cutting box 9. The operator can place a collection container at the discharge port 22 to receive the finished product.

[0035] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
