[0002] In the carrot dehydration processing industry chain, "tail removal" is one of the core steps in the pre-treatment process. The carrot tail has a rough texture, high fiber content, and often has soil, microorganisms, or small fibrous roots attached to it. If it is processed directly, it is easy to form hard residue or have an earthy taste after dehydration, which seriously affects the taste and cleanliness of the finished product.

[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN220675084U discloses a tail-removing device for carrot dehydration production, including a tail-removing device base. A carrot placement box is fixedly installed on the upper end of the tail-removing device base. A push plate is slidably installed on the inner side wall of the carrot placement box, and a push rod is fixedly installed on the side end of the push plate. The push rod is slidably installed through the side end of the carrot placement box. Fixing plates are fixedly installed on both sides of the inner side wall of the carrot placement box, and fixing plates are fixedly installed on the upper end of the carrot placement box. Limiting plates are hinged to the side ends of the two fixing plates and the lower end of the fixing plate. This utility model designs the limiting plates of the tail-removing device for carrot dehydration production to be self-adjustable, so that carrots of different shapes can be centered and limited during the tail-removing and cutting process, thereby facilitating cutting and effectively improving the applicability of the device.

[0004] In the aforementioned prior art, during the carrot dehydration and tail removal process, after the carrot tail is removed, the cut carrot needs to be taken out and a new carrot needs to be put in. The device will temporarily stop the carrot cutting operation, and the number of carrots that can be placed is limited, which makes the carrot tail removal operation inefficient.

[0005] In view of this, it is necessary to propose a tail-removal device for carrot dehydration production to solve or at least alleviate the above-mentioned defects. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tail-removal device for carrot dehydration production, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a tail-removing device for carrot dehydration production, comprising a support frame, a connecting shaft rotatably mounted inside the support frame, a rotating disk mounted at one end of the connecting shaft, a cutting structure connected to the rotating disk, several fixing rings mounted on both sides of the rotating disk, the same positioning structure connected to two corresponding fixing rings, a toothed disc rotatably mounted inside the fixing ring, and an adjustment structure connected to the toothed disc.

[0008] Preferably, the cutting structure includes a cutting motor, which is mounted above the support frame, and a cutting saw blade is installed at the output end of the cutting motor.

[0009] Preferably, the positioning structure includes several U-shaped frames, which are slidably mounted on two corresponding fixed rings. One end of the U-shaped frame is equipped with an inclined baffle. The interior of the rotating disk has several through holes, and one end of the U-shaped frame is located in the through hole. A reduction motor is mounted on one side of the support frame, and the output end of the reduction motor is mounted on the connecting shaft.

[0010] Preferably, the adjustment structure includes several arc-shaped holes, which are evenly distributed on the gear plate. A linkage shaft is movably installed inside the arc-shaped holes, and the linkage shaft is installed on the corresponding U-shaped frame.

[0011] Preferably, the fixed ring has a plurality of guide grooves, and a guide slider is slidably installed in the guide grooves. The guide slider is installed at one end of the linkage shaft.

[0012] Preferably, the fixing ring has an annular groove, and the gear disc is rotatably installed in the annular groove.

[0013] Preferably, a plurality of fixed rods are mounted on the surface of the rotating disk, and toothed plates are slidably sleeved on the fixed rods. The toothed plates mesh with the toothed disk. A strip plate is mounted on one end of the fixed rod, and one end of a spring is mounted on the strip plate. The other end of the spring is mounted on one side of the toothed plate, and the spring is slidably sleeved on the fixed rod.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] (1) This utility model realizes the continuous operation of carrot tail removal by using a structure of a geared motor driving a rotating disk to rotate and a cutting motor driving a saw blade to cut. The operator only needs to insert the carrot to be processed between the corresponding U-shaped frames. The rotating disk will carry the carrot in a circular motion to the cutting saw blade to complete the tail removal. After the tail is removed, it can be taken away from the cutting area. There is no need for manual pushing or frequent adjustment of the work position. This avoids the efficiency limitation of single manual cutting. Continuous operation can be achieved by cyclic material feeding and replenishment, thus improving the efficiency of carrot tail removal.

[0016] (2) By adjusting the structure, the position of each U-shaped frame and the space size in the middle can be flexibly changed so that different varieties and sizes of carrots can be placed in it. This allows for flexible adjustment of the positioning specifications according to the size of the carrots, without the need to replace the special positioning parts, thus improving the versatility of the device and reducing the equipment adjustment cost when processing different batches of carrots.

[0025] 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.

[0026] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a tail-removing device for carrot dehydration production, including a support frame 100, a connecting shaft 101 rotatably mounted inside the support frame 100, a rotating disk 102 mounted at one end of the connecting shaft 101, a cutting structure connected to the rotating disk 102, the cutting structure being used to cut off the tail of the carrot, several fixing rings 300 mounted on both sides of the rotating disk 102, and the same positioning structure connected to two corresponding fixing rings 300, the positioning structure being used to limit the position of the carrot and facilitate sending the carrot to the cutting structure for cutting, a toothed disk 400 rotatably mounted inside the fixing ring 300, an adjusting structure connected to the toothed disk 400, the adjusting structure being used to adjust the size of the positioning structure to adapt it to the size of the carrot.

[0027] Furthermore, the cutting structure includes a cutting motor 200, which is mounted above the support frame 100. A cutting saw blade 201 is installed at the output end of the cutting motor 200. Turning on the cutting motor 200 will drive the cutting saw blade 201 to rotate, thereby cutting the carrot.

[0028] Furthermore, the positioning structure includes several U-shaped frames 301, which are slidably mounted on two corresponding fixed rings 300. One end of the U-shaped frame 301 is equipped with a slanted baffle 304. The interior of the rotating disk 102 has several through holes 302. One end of the U-shaped frame 301 is located in the through hole 302. A reduction motor 303 is installed on one side of the support frame 100. The output end of the reduction motor 303 is installed on the connecting shaft 101. When the tail of the carrot is inserted into the corresponding through hole 302 with the cutting motor 200 in the direction of the carrot, it is positioned between the U-shaped frames 301 in the through hole 302. The tail of the carrot will protrude from the slanted baffles 304 around it. Turning on the reduction motor 303 will drive the rotating disk 102 to rotate slowly, thereby driving the carrot to move in a circular motion and making its tail contact the cutting saw blade 201 to cut off the tail of the carrot.

[0029] Example 2: As Figure 1-5 To facilitate the adjustment of the positions of each U-shaped frame 301 and the inclined baffle 304 according to different varieties and sizes of carrots, an adjustment structure is arranged. The adjustment structure includes several arc-shaped holes 401, which are evenly distributed on the gear plate 400. A linkage shaft 402 is movably installed in the arc-shaped holes 401. The linkage shaft 402 is installed on the corresponding U-shaped frame 301. Rotating the gear plate 400 can simultaneously drive the several arc-shaped holes 401 to rotate in a circular motion, so that the arc-shaped holes 401 squeeze the linkage shaft 402 and drive the surrounding U-shaped frames 301 and inclined baffles 304 to move closer or further apart, thereby adjusting their spacing.

[0030] Furthermore, the fixed ring 300 is provided with several guide grooves 403, and guide sliders 404 are slidably installed in the guide grooves 403. The guide sliders 404 are installed at one end of the linkage shaft 402. When the linkage shaft 402 moves, it will drive the guide sliders 404 and the U-shaped frame 301 to move. When the guide sliders 404 move, they will slide in the guide grooves 403. Thus, the movement direction of the U-shaped frame 301 and the arc-shaped hole 401 can be restricted by the setting of the guide grooves 403 and the guide sliders 404.

[0031] Furthermore, an annular groove 405 is provided on the fixed ring 300, and the gear disk 400 is rotatably installed in the annular groove 405. The annular groove 405 can limit the rotation position of the gear disk 400 and prevent its position from shifting.

[0032] Furthermore, several fixing rods 406 are installed on the surface of the rotating disk 102. A toothed plate 407 is slidably sleeved on the fixing rod 406. The toothed plate 407 meshes with the toothed disk 400. A strip plate 408 is installed on one end of the fixing rod 406. One end of a spring 409 is installed on the strip plate 408. The other end of the spring 409 is installed on one side of the toothed plate 407. The spring 409 is slidably sleeved on the fixing rod 406. Pulling the corresponding toothed plate 407 allows it to slide on the fixing rod 406. At the same time, the toothed plate 407 will compress the spring 409 and disengage from the toothed disk 400, thereby releasing the angle restriction on the toothed disk 400. Conversely, when the toothed plate 407 is released, the compressed spring 409 will push the toothed plate 407 to reset and re-engage with the toothed disk 400, thus restricting the angle of the toothed disk 400.

[0033] The working principle is as follows: When in use, insert the carrot with its tail end facing the cutting motor 200 into the corresponding through hole 302, so that it is positioned between the various U-shaped frames 301 within the through hole 302. As the tail end of the carrot becomes increasingly thin, its tip will be blocked by the surrounding inclined baffles 304, while the tail end will protrude from the surrounding inclined baffles 304. At this time, the cutting motor 200 and the reduction motor 303 can be turned on. The cutting motor 200 will drive the cutting saw blade 201 to rotate, and the reduction motor 303 will drive the connecting shaft 101 and the rotating disk 102 to rotate slowly, thereby causing the carrot to move in a circular motion. When the carrot moves in a circular motion, its tail end will come into contact with the cutting saw blade 201, and under the action of the rotation of the cutting saw blade 201, the tail end of the carrot can be cut off. With the rotation of the rotating disk 102, the cut carrot can be removed from the cutting area. Then, the worker can take out the cut carrot and put in a new carrot, and this cycle can be repeated.

[0034] Pulling the corresponding toothed plate 407 allows it to slide on the fixed rod 406. Simultaneously, the toothed plate 407 compresses the spring 409 and disengages from the toothed disc 400, thus releasing the angle restriction on the toothed disc 400. Rotating the toothed disc 400 allows it to rotate within the annular groove 405. The rotating toothed disc 400 simultaneously drives several arc-shaped holes 401 to rotate, causing the arc-shaped holes 401 to press against the linkage shaft 402 and move the guide slider 404 and the U-shaped frame 301. As the guide slider 404 moves, it slides within the guide groove 403. The movement of the U-shaped frame 301 and the arc-shaped hole 401 can be restricted by the setting of the guide groove 403 and the guide slider 404. Thus, under the rotation of the toothed disc 400, the movement of the U-shaped frame 301 and the inclined baffle 304 around can be controlled to move towards each other or away from each other, and their spacing can be adjusted to adapt to different varieties and sizes of carrots. After completion, the toothed plate 407 is released. At this time, the compressed spring 409 will push the toothed plate 407 to reset and re-engage with the toothed disc 400, thereby restricting the angle of the toothed disc 400.

[0035] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
