Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bean curd slicing technology, specifically to an automatic bean curd slicing machine. Background Technology

[0002] Soy products are foods made from soybeans, mung beans, peas, broad beans, and other legumes as the main raw materials. Most soy products are tofu and its derivatives, which are made by coagulating soybean milk. After the bean curd sheets are formed, they usually need to be cut into pieces for easy transportation and sale. They are usually sliced ​​manually or by a slicer. However, manual slicing is usually labor-intensive and inefficient, and the slices are uneven. When the slicing blade rises, the bean curd skin on both sides of the blade rises with the blade, causing the bean curd to curl up, affecting stacking. It is also impossible to press the bean curd during slicing to increase the stability of the slices. At the same time, the position of the blade is not easy to adjust, so different sizes of bean curd can be cut as needed. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an automatic bean curd cutting machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: An automatic bean curd cutting machine includes a conveyor table, with rotating rollers located near both ends in the middle of the conveyor table, a conveyor belt sleeved between two of the rotating rollers, a slicing table located in the middle above the conveyor table, a lifting assembly located on the upper surface of the slicing table, and a motor located on the outer wall of the conveyor table, with the output shaft of the motor coaxially connected to one of the rotating rollers. The lifting assembly includes an electric push rod and a lifting plate at the end of the telescopic arm of the electric push rod. The lower surface of the lifting plate is provided with several pressure plates. The upper surface of the pressure plate is provided with slide rods near both ends. Springs are sleeved on the slide rods. Sliding holes are opened on the upper surface of the lifting plate corresponding to the slide rods. Limiting plates are symmetrically provided on the upper surface of the lifting plate. Several cutters are also provided below the lifting plate. The upper surface of the cutter is symmetrically provided with limiting posts. The lifting plate is provided with a limiting groove corresponding to the limiting post at the limiting plate. The outer wall of the limiting post is provided with screw holes, and fastening bolts are provided in the screw holes. The outer wall of the limiting plate is provided with a sliding groove corresponding to the fastening bolt.

[0005] Furthermore, the conveyor platform is provided with several drag rollers located between the two rotating rollers. The drag rollers are rotatably connected to the conveyor platform via rotating shafts. The rotating rollers are rotatably connected to the conveyor platform via rotating shafts. The motor is fixedly connected to the conveyor platform via screws. The output shaft of the motor is coaxially connected to the rotating shaft of one of the rotating rollers via a coupling.

[0006] In this invention, multiple rollers work together to support the conveyor belt, preventing the middle section of the conveyor belt from sagging under gravity, which would affect the conveying of the trays containing dried bean curd and the use of the sliced ​​dried bean curd. The motor is connected to an external power source via a wire, and the control switch is activated. The motor provides the conveying power to continuously transport the dried bean curd for slicing.

[0007] Specifically, both ends of the conveyor table are equipped with pallets, one side of the pallet is close to the conveyor belt, and the lower surface of the pallet is equipped with support columns near the four corners.

[0008] In this invention, two trays work together, and a support column supports the trays. The left tray holds sliced ​​dried bean curd, while the right tray prevents the sliced ​​dried bean curd from being placed on the tray.

[0009] It should be noted that the slicing stage has columns at the four corners on its lower surface. The top of the columns is integrally formed with the slicing stage. The bottom of each column has a block. The upper surface of the conveyor stage has slots corresponding to the blocks. The blocks are inserted into the slots and fixed with screws.

[0010] In this invention, the column and the insert block are used to fix the slicing table and the conveying table together, and the installation stability is increased by fixing with screws.

[0011] Furthermore, the electric push rod is fixedly connected to the top of the slicing stage by screws, the telescopic arm of the electric push rod passes through the slicing stage, and the end of the telescopic arm is fixed to the lifting plate by screws, the bottom of the slide rod is welded and fixed to the pressure plate, the slide rod slides in conjunction with the sliding hole, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the pressure plate, and the other end is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the lifting plate.

[0012] In this invention, the electric push rod is electrically connected to an external power source via a wire. A control switch controls the extension or retraction of the electric push rod's telescopic arm. The telescopic arm slides in conjunction with the lifting plate. When the lifting plate descends, it presses down on the bean curd that needs to be sliced. The spring extends and retracts, and the sliding rod passes through the sliding hole, facilitating stable slicing of the bean curd and preventing the sliced ​​bean curd from curling up as the cutter rises.

[0013] Specifically, the limiting post and the top of the cutter are integrally formed, the limiting post and the limiting groove are slidably inserted, the end of the fastening bolt passes through the sliding groove and is threadedly connected to the screw hole, and the limiting plate and the lifting plate are integrally formed.

[0014] In this invention, the limiting post slides in the limiting groove, and the cutter is located in the gap between the two pressure plates, which facilitates the fitting of the pressed tofu slices. The inner side of the fastening bolt is tightly fitted with the outer wall of the limiting plate, and the length of the end of the fastening bolt is less than the depth of the screw hole. The fastening bolt is threadedly connected to the screw hole, and the fastening bolt is tightly fitted with the limiting plate. Under the action of friction, the position of the cutter is fixed. Loosening the fastening bolt facilitates the adjustment of the distance between the cutters, so that different widths of tofu slices can be fitted together. The cutter can also be removed from the limiting groove for easy replacement.

[0015] In addition, the distance between the upper surface of the pressure plate and the lifting plate is greater than the distance between the bottom of the cutter and the lifting plate.

[0016] In this invention, when no pressing is applied to the slice, the cutter moves horizontally on the lower surface of the lifting plate, and the pressure plate does not obstruct the movement of the cutter, thus not affecting the adjustment and coordination.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. This utility model features a conveyor with a slicing platform. A motor provides power to continuously convey the bean curd to be sliced. When the bean curd is conveyed to the bottom of the slicing platform, the motor is de-energized, and the electric push rod extension arm is extended. The pressure plate, together with the slide rod and spring, initially presses the bean curd below. With the cooperation of multiple cutters, the bean curd is quickly sliced. The cutters slide in the limiting groove on the lifting plate through the limiting post, and the position of the limiting post is fixed by the fastening bolt, so as to realize the adjustment of the distance between adjacent cutters and realize the use of bean curd slices of different widths.

[0018] 2. This utility model uses two trays to facilitate the placement of dried bean curd before and after slicing, making it convenient for users to place or retrieve the bean curd. Multiple rollers support the conveyor belt, reducing the risk of the conveyor belt sagging in the middle under gravity, which would affect the continuous transport of the trays containing the dried bean curd.
