Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of food processing equipment, specifically a manual sausage-breaking machine. Background Technology

[0002] Duck intestines, rich in protein, B vitamins, and trace elements such as calcium and iron, are widely used in hot pot, braised dishes, and other catering industries due to their chewy texture and unique flavor, resulting in a continuously rising market demand. The processing of high-quality duck intestines requires key pre-treatment steps such as gutting, degreasing, and removing tendons. Because the inside of duck intestines has many folds that may contain undigested food residue, they are typically gutted before cleaning. This gutting process directly affects the efficiency of subsequent cleaning and the final edible quality.

[0003] Currently, the processing of duck intestines in the industry mainly relies on two methods. The first is traditional manual intestine cutting, where operators need to hold knives or special picks and cut open the intestines one by one along the mesentery. This method relies on manual experience to control the position and force of the cut, and the operation is complex and time-consuming. The second is preliminary mechanized processing equipment, such as the existing technology "A structure and equipment for cutting and splitting intestinal ingredients" (Announcement No.: CN222264218U). This technology uses a guide wheel to guide the intestinal ingredients. The guide wheel has a guide groove, and a piercing needle is set at the bottom of the guide groove. When the guide wheel rotates, the piercing needle is used to pierce the duck intestine to fix it, so that the duck intestine rotates with the guide wheel and does not fall off. Then, a splitting knife installed below the guide wheel is used to split the duck intestine as it rotates, thus completing the intestine cutting operation. However, this technology still has the following technical problems: 1. Because duck intestines have many folds before cutting, the existing technology uses a piercing needle on a guide wheel to pierce the duck intestine for fixation. When the piercing needle is aimed at the folds and depressions on the outside of the duck intestine, it is easy to fail to pierce the duck intestine and fix it firmly. This can lead to the duck intestine shifting during cutting and causing the duck intestine to be missed. In addition, if the piercing needle pierces multiple overlapping folds, the intestinal wall will remain curled up during the cutting process. If the folds are too deep, the cutting blade cannot reach the intestinal wall in the folds and depressions during cutting. This will result in the surface being cut open but the internal folded area not being cut, resulting in incomplete cutting of the duck intestine and requiring rework, which reduces processing efficiency.

[0004] 2. In the existing technology, the positions of the cutting blade and the guide wheel are fixed, and the cutting depth of the cutting blade cannot be adjusted. When cutting duck intestines that are small in volume or have thin walls, it is easy for some parts to be not cut, which affects the accuracy and stability of the cutting and reduces processing efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a manual sausage-splitting machine, which can solve the problem that existing equipment is prone to incomplete cutting of sausages due to the folds in the sausages, resulting in repeated rework and reduced processing efficiency.

[0006] This application provides the following technical solution: a simulated manual gut splitting machine, including a mounting plate, a traction mechanism fixed on the mounting plate, and a cutting mechanism fixed on the mounting plate and located in front of the traction mechanism; The cutting mechanism includes a positioning block fixed on the mounting plate, a guide groove formed on the positioning block, a guide rod horizontally fixed in the guide groove, and a circular cutter disposed below the guide rod. The end of the guide rod is provided with a ball, and the ball is located in front of the circular cutter.

[0007] Beneficial effects: 1. Ensures effective cutting and improves processing efficiency. The guide rod and the ball at its end expand the duck intestine before cutting. The ball gradually stretches the curled intestinal wall, flattening the originally stacked intestinal wall. Then, the subsequent circular cutter cuts through the intestine, ensuring that the entire intestine is completely cut. This eliminates the situation where the circular cutter cannot reach the intestinal wall in the folds due to the folds, resulting in the surface of the intestine being cut but the internal folded areas not being cut. This ensures the effectiveness of the cutting path, prevents rework, and improves processing efficiency.

[0008] 2. Stabilizes the position of the intestine, improves cutting stability, and avoids missed sections. The guide rod, while expanding the intestine, also constrains it. Combined with the guide groove of the positioning block, it allows the flattened duck intestine to maintain a stable posture as it is fed towards the circular cutter. Compared to existing technologies, this solution makes the cutting position of the intestine more fixed, ensuring stable feeding during the cutting process and preventing displacement that could lead to missed sections. This improves the cutting effect and stability, and helps increase processing efficiency.

[0009] Furthermore, the circular cutter is rotatably connected to the mounting plate.

[0010] Beneficial effects: As a fixed foundation component of the equipment, the mounting plate has higher load-bearing strength. The cutter is directly connected to it, which avoids radial runout of the cutter during rotation due to loose intermediate components. This ensures that the cutter always cuts duck intestines in a stable posture, reducing the probability of skewed cuts and excessive burrs. In addition, subsequent maintenance does not require disassembling other components. The cutter on the mounting plate can be directly inspected, ground, or replaced, making the operation simpler, shortening maintenance downtime, ensuring continuous and stable operation of the equipment, and indirectly improving processing efficiency.

[0011] Furthermore, the circular cutter is rotatably connected to the positioning block.

[0012] Beneficial effects: When the circular cutter assembly needs to be used on other similar intestinal cutting equipment, there is no need to disassemble and separate the cutter and the positioning block. The positioning block with the circular cutter can be directly removed from the original equipment mounting plate and quickly adapted to the corresponding mounting structure of other equipment. This eliminates the need to readjust the relative position of the cutter and the positioning block on the new equipment, greatly shortens the time for component replacement between equipment, and enhances the overall flexibility, versatility and adaptability of the processing equipment.

[0013] Furthermore, a strip groove is provided below the guide rod, and the upper end of the circular cutter is located inside the strip groove.

[0014] Beneficial effects: It is equivalent to the strip groove being inverted on the circular cutter, with the upper end of the circular cutter exceeding the lower horizontal line of the guide rod. When the duck intestine is put onto the guide rod, the circular cutter can completely cut open the outer wall of the duck intestine, preventing the outer wall of the duck intestine from slipping through the gap between the circular cutter and the guide rod and causing missed cuts. This ensures that the cutting process is continuous and effective, and effectively improves processing efficiency.

[0015] Furthermore, it also includes an auxiliary rod, the end of which is provided with an arc-shaped groove. The auxiliary rod is used to assist the duck intestines in being inserted into the guide rod.

[0016] Beneficial effects: The auxiliary rod can be inserted into the opening of the duck intestine first, and the duck intestine can be fixed with fingers. Then the duck intestine can be put onto the guide rod. The arc groove can fit the ball at the end of the guide rod through the arc surface, and the duck intestine can be easily put onto the guide rod with the help of the guiding action, which greatly reduces the difficulty of putting the duck intestine onto the guide rod and improves the processing efficiency.

[0017] Furthermore, the end of the guide groove away from the sphere is an arc surface.

[0018] Beneficial effects: The end of the guide groove away from the ball is the entrance end of the duck intestine into the traction mechanism. This part is designed with an arc surface, which helps the duck intestine slide into the traction mechanism more smoothly, reduces the jamming phenomenon during the conveying of the duck intestine, ensures the continuity of the intestine conveying, and helps improve processing efficiency. Furthermore, the traction mechanism includes a roller assembly rotatably connected to the mounting plate, a belt wound around the roller assembly, and a clamping block fixed to the upper surface of the belt; the roller assembly is provided in two pairs and is symmetrically arranged with respect to the cutting mechanism.

[0019] Beneficial effects: The duck intestines coming out of the cutting mechanism will enter the traction mechanism, which is used to provide traction force to the duck intestines. When the two sets of rollers rotate, they will perform roller operation and rely on the clamping blocks on the belt to fix the duck intestines, so that the duck intestines will be cut continuously.

[0020] Furthermore, the clamping blocks on the belts of the two pairs of roller sets are staggered.

[0021] Beneficial effects: The clamping blocks on the two pairs of roller belts are staggered to form alternating clamping points on the intestinal conveying path, so that the clamping blocks on the two pairs of roller belts can achieve S-shaped staggered clamping of the duck intestines, ensuring that the duck intestines do not loosen during the traction process, and eliminating the problem of slippage and stagnation caused by loss of clamping force, thus ensuring the stability of continuous cutting.

[0022] Furthermore, the rollers of each pair of roller sets are rotatably connected to the mounting plate via a rotating shaft. Multiple drive motors are fixed at the bottom of the mounting plate, and the lower end of each rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the main shaft of the drive motor.

[0023] Beneficial effects: The rotational speed of each pair of rollers can be precisely controlled by the drive motor, thereby achieving controllable adjustment of the traction speed of duck intestines. Combined with the stable clamping of the misaligned clamping block, the smoothness of intestine transport is improved.

[0024] Furthermore, it also includes a height adjustment mechanism, which includes a concave block vertically slidably connected to the mounting plate and an adjusting screw rotatably connected to the bottom of the concave block. The circular cutter is pivotally connected to the groove of the concave block. The mounting plate is provided with a sliding groove, and the concave block is slidably connected to the groove. The shank of the adjusting screw is threadedly connected to the mounting plate. A T-shaped pin is rotatably connected to the bottom of the groove of the concave block, and the bottom end of the T-shaped pin extends downward into the upper end of the adjusting screw and is fixed.

[0025] Beneficial effects: The height adjustment mechanism drives the concave block to slide vertically along the groove on the mounting plate by rotating the adjusting screw. This allows for real-time adjustment of the distance between the upper cutting edge of the circular cutter and the guide rod, thereby adjusting the depth of the cutter into the duck intestine. When the cutter wears down, the outer diameter of the cutter will decrease, which may cause the cutting edge to disengage from the strip groove in the guide rod, creating a gap. The duck intestine may slip through this gap and be missed. In this case, the position of the cutter can be adjusted upwards to allow the cutting edge to continue extending into the strip groove, ensuring that the intestine is completely cut open, improving equipment adaptability and ensuring cutting effect. The T-shaped structure of the T-pin provides axial restraint to the connection between the concave block and the adjusting screw, preventing the adjusting screw from disengaging from the concave block during rotation. This ensures that the driving force of the adjusting screw is accurately transmitted to the concave block, making the concave block slide more smoothly along the groove. At the same time, it does not interfere with the rotation process of the adjusting screw, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the height adjustment mechanism. Attached Figure Description

[0035] Figure 10 for Figure 9 Cross-sectional view of the height adjustment mechanism. Detailed Implementation

[0036] The following detailed description illustrates the specific implementation method: The markings in the accompanying drawings include: mounting plate 1, belt 2, clamping block 3, rotating shaft 4, roller group 5, positioning block 6, guide groove 7, guide rod 8, ball 81, protective block 82, strip groove 83, circular cutter 9, receiving groove 10, auxiliary rod 11, arc groove 111, finger 12, concave block 13, adjusting screw 14, slide groove 15, T-pin 16.

[0037] Example 1 like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the simulated manual intestine-splitting machine includes a mounting plate 1, a traction mechanism fixed on the mounting plate 1, and a cutting mechanism fixed on the mounting plate 1 and located in front of the traction mechanism. In this embodiment, only one set of traction mechanism and cutting mechanism is shown on the mounting plate 1. In actual use, multiple sets can be set according to requirements.

[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the traction mechanism includes a roller set 5 rotatably connected to the mounting plate 1, a belt 2 wound around the roller set 5, and a clamping block 3 fixed on the upper surface of the belt 2; the roller set 5 is provided in two pairs and is symmetrically arranged with respect to the cutting mechanism. Figure 1 The two rollers on the left and right sides form a pair of roller groups 5. Similarly, the pair of roller groups 5 on the right side and the pair of roller groups 5 on the left side are arranged symmetrically.

[0039] A food-grade belt 2 is wound around the two rollers of the roller assembly 5. Clamping blocks 3 are fixed to the surface of the belt 2. Figure 1 As shown, the clamping blocks 3 on the belts 2 of the two pairs of roller sets 5 are staggered, so that when the two belts 2 rotate in the direction of the arrow in the figure, the clamping blocks 3 at the corresponding parts rotate to the relative positions and can be embedded in each other, which is conducive to achieving S-shaped staggered clamping of the duck intestines and ensuring that the duck intestines do not loosen during the traction process. like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the rollers of each pair of roller sets 5 are rotatably connected to the mounting plate 1 via a rotating shaft 4. Multiple drive motors are fixed to the bottom of the mounting plate 1 (the drive motors are omitted in the figure). The lower end of each rotating shaft 4 is fixedly connected to the main shaft of the drive motor via a coupling. The rotational speed of each pair of roller sets 5 can be precisely controlled by the drive motors, thereby achieving controllable adjustment of the duck intestine traction speed. Combined with the stable clamping of the misaligned clamping block 3, this improves the smoothness of intestine transport.

[0040] like Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 for Figure 2 The half-sectional view shows that the cutting mechanism includes a positioning block 6 fixed to the mounting plate 1 with screws, a guide groove 7 opened on the positioning block 6, a guide rod 8 horizontally fixed in the guide groove 7, and a circular cutter 9 disposed below the guide rod 8; one end of the guide rod 8 is provided with a ball 81, the end of the guide groove 7 away from the ball 81 is an arc surface, and the end of the guide rod 8 away from the ball 81 is fixed to the arc surface; a strip groove 83 is provided below the guide rod 8, and the upper end of the circular cutter 9 is located in the strip groove 83; the circular cutter 9 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 1, and the ball 81 is located in front of the circular cutter 9; the mounting plate 1 is provided with a mounting groove, and the circular cutter 9 is pivotally connected to the mounting groove by a pin.

[0041] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, two protective blocks 82 are also fixed on the mounting plate 1. The protective blocks 82 are set on both sides of the circular cutter 9 to prevent the operator's hands from contacting the blade and improve safety.

[0042] The usage method of this device is as follows: like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the duck intestines need to be initially positioned using the auxiliary rod 11, such as... Figure 4 As shown, an arc-shaped groove 111 is provided below the end of the auxiliary rod 11, such as... Figure 5As shown, in use, first insert the end of the auxiliary rod 11 into the opening of the duck intestine, and press the outer wall of the duck intestine with your finger 12. Then, slip the opening of the duck intestine onto the ball 81. The arc groove 111 on the auxiliary rod 11 facilitates the sliding of the auxiliary rod 11 along the spherical surface of the ball 81, making it easier for your finger 12 to press the outer wall of the duck intestine onto the guide rod 8. Then, continue to slip the duck intestine onto the back of the guide rod 8. The bottom of the duck intestine will contact the circular cutter 9. During the movement of the duck intestine, the cutter will cut the duck intestine. Then, continue to drag the duck intestine backward between the two pairs of roller sets 5. Before starting the drive motor, press... Figure 1 Manually rotate the two belts 2 in the manner indicated by the arrows, so that the clamping blocks 3 on the belts 2 are interlocked after rotating to the corresponding positions, thereby stably clamping the duck intestine between the two pairs of roller sets 5, thus completing the initial positioning of the duck intestine. Then, start the drive motor to drive the roller set 5 to rotate, and the duck intestine will be continuously transported away from the ball 81. During this process, the cutter will also continuously cut the duck intestine radially. After the entire duck intestine is cut, the next duck intestine can be replaced for cutting.

[0043] Example 2 like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and embodiment one is that the protective block 82 and the positioning block 6 are designed as a whole. The positioning block 6 is detachably connected to the mounting plate 1 by screws, and the circular cutter 9 is rotatably connected to the positioning block 6. The positioning block 6 is provided with a receiving groove 10, and the circular cutter is pivotally connected to the receiving groove 10 by a pin.

[0044] The advantage of this solution is that when the circular cutter assembly needs to be used on other similar intestinal cutting equipment, there is no need to disassemble and separate the cutter and the positioning block. The positioning block 6 with the circular cutter 9 can be directly removed from the original equipment mounting plate and quickly adapted to the corresponding mounting structure of other equipment. This eliminates the need to readjust the relative position of the cutter and the positioning block 6 on the new equipment, greatly shortens the time for component replacement between equipment, and enhances the overall flexibility, versatility and adaptability of the processing equipment.

[0045] Example 3 like Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 2 is that this device also includes a height adjustment mechanism. Figure 7 for Figure 6 A cross-sectional view of the height adjustment mechanism shows that the mechanism includes a concave block 13 vertically slidably connected to the mounting plate 1 and an adjusting screw 14 rotatably connected to the bottom of the concave block 13. A circular cutter 9 is pivotally connected to the groove of the concave block 13. The mounting plate 1 has a sliding groove 15, and the concave block 13 is slidably connected to the groove. The rod of the adjusting screw 14 is threadedly connected to the mounting plate 1. Figure 7As shown, a T-shaped pin 16 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the groove of the concave block 13. The bottom end of the T-shaped pin 16 extends downward into the upper end of the adjusting screw 14. The bottom end of the T-shaped pin 16 and the upper end of the adjusting screw 14 are fixed by an interference fit.

[0046] The height adjustment mechanism can drive the concave block 13 to slide vertically along the slide groove 15 on the mounting plate 1 by rotating the adjusting screw 14. This allows for real-time adjustment of the distance between the upper edge of the circular cutter 9 and the guide rod 8, thereby adjusting the depth of the cutter into the duck intestine. When the cutter wears down, the outer circle of the cutter will become smaller, which may cause the blade to disengage from the strip groove 83 in the guide rod 8, creating a gap. The duck intestine may slip through this gap and be missed. At this time, the position of the cutter can be adjusted upward so that the blade continues to extend into the strip groove 83, ensuring that the intestine is completely cut open, improving equipment adaptability, and ensuring the cutting effect.

[0047] The T-shaped structure of the T-pin 16 can axially limit the connection between the concave block 13 and the adjusting screw 14, preventing the adjusting screw 14 from disengaging from the concave block 13 when it rotates. This ensures that the driving force of the adjusting screw 14 can be accurately transmitted to the concave block 13, making the concave block 13 slide more smoothly along the slide groove 15. At the same time, it will not interfere with the rotation process of the adjusting screw 14, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the height adjustment mechanism.
