Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a fast-moving water jet cutting device, belonging to the field of food processing. Background Technology

[0002] Waterjet cutting is a physical processing technology that uses high-pressure water jets to precisely cut materials. It features heat-free processing and smooth cuts, and is used in the food industry, especially in bread production.

[0003] In practical applications, there are many drawbacks. Due to the slow cutting speed of water jets, continuous production is not possible, and moisture residue is easily left behind. After cutting, if the water jet is not moved to the side of the product in time, or if there is a lack of shielding or the water jet is not moved in place, the high-speed water flow will form tiny pits on the food surface, resulting in an increase in the moisture content of the food surface.

[0004] Therefore, this invention provides a fast-moving waterjet cutting device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a fast-moving waterjet cutting device.

[0006] This utility model is implemented as follows: A rapid-moving waterjet cutting device includes a conveyor, a shield, a dual-axis linear module, a moving platform, several water pipes, and nozzles. The conveyor is used to output a tray containing bread dough. The shield, moving platform, and dual-axis linear module are sequentially located above the conveyor. The horizontal ends of the dual-axis linear module and the shield are fixed to both sides of the conveyor by brackets. Several water pipes are arranged parallel to each other on the moving platform. Several nozzles are evenly spaced at the bottom of each water pipe, and the free end of each nozzle vertically penetrates the moving platform and is exposed at the bottom for spraying high-pressure water jets to form a waterjet. The moving platform is installed at the bottom of the dual-axis linear module, which is used to control the movement of the moving platform on the X-axis or Y-axis.

[0007] As a further improvement, the shielding frame includes an outer frame consisting of four support rods that are vertically fixed end to end, wherein the outer surfaces of two opposite support rods of the outer frame are fixed to the bottom end of the support. The shielding frame also includes a number of V-shaped grooves, which are arranged in parallel inside the outer frame, and the parallel direction of the V-shaped grooves and the conveying direction are consistent in the path direction.

[0008] As a further improvement, the shield also includes a water collection tank, with the ends of several V-shaped grooves fixed to the inner surface of the outer frame via the water collection tank, so that the liquid in the V-shaped grooves flows back into the water collection tank.

[0009] As a further improvement, one end of each water pipe is connected to the high-pressure water flow from the outside, while the other end is connected in series with a second water pipe, which flows to a waste bin outside.

[0010] As a further improvement, the dual-axis linear module includes a first guide rail, a second guide rail, a first cylinder, a second cylinder, and several fixing components. The first guide rail is aligned with the conveying direction and is fixed at the center of the top of the bracket. The second guide rail and the first guide rail are perpendicular to each other, and the second guide rail is slidably connected to the bottom of the first guide rail by a fixing member. A first cylinder is installed at one end of the first guide rail, and the output end of the first cylinder is fixed to the second guide rail. A fixing component is provided in the center of the mobile platform, and the mobile platform is slidably connected to the bottom of the second guide rail through the fixing component. A second cylinder is installed at one end of the second guide rail, and the output end of the second cylinder is fixed to the mobile platform. This causes the first or second cylinder to move, driving the second guide rail or moving platform to move linearly.

[0011] As a further improvement, the distance between adjacent V-grooves is greater than the diameter of the bread dough.

[0012] As a further improvement, the shield is made of stainless steel.

[0013] As a further improvement, a third water pipe is detachably connected to one end of the water collection tank for connecting to an external waste bin.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model adopts multiple sets of nozzles and multiple water pipes to increase the number of water jets and the number of bread doughs cut. Furthermore, the trays holding the bread doughs are continuously transported by a conveyor, which improves production efficiency. Secondly, this application is equipped with a shielding frame, the structure of which is clearly disclosed below. When bread doughs need to be cut, water will be sprayed from the hollow position of the shielding frame to form water jets, which cut the bread doughs transported by the conveyor. After cutting, the position is moved by a dual-axis linear module. The nozzles are all located above the V-shaped groove. Water flow or water droplets that do not stop in time will drip into the V-shaped groove and flow back to the water collection tank for convenient centralized treatment. This solves the problem that after the water jets have finished cutting, the high-speed water flow will form tiny pits on the food surface, which will lead to an increase in the surface moisture content of the food.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but merely represents selected embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0022] In the description of this utility model, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0023] Reference Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a specific implementation of a fast-moving waterjet cutting device, including a conveyor 10, a shielding frame 20, a dual-axis linear module 30, a moving platform 40, several water pipes 50, and nozzles 60. The conveyor 10 is used to output a tray holding bread dough. The shielding frame 20, the moving platform 40, and the dual-axis linear module 30 are sequentially located directly above the conveyor 10. The horizontal ends of the dual-axis linear module 30 and the shielding frame 20 are fixed to the conveyor 10 by brackets 70. On both sides of the 0, several water pipes 50 are arranged in parallel on the mobile platform 40. Several nozzles 60 are arranged at equal intervals at the bottom of each water pipe 50, and the free end of each nozzle 60 penetrates the mobile platform 40 vertically and is exposed at the bottom for spraying high-pressure water flow to form a water jet. The mobile platform 40 is installed at the bottom of the dual-axis linear module 30. The dual-axis linear module 30 is used to control the movement of the mobile platform 40 on the X-axis or Y-axis. Here, the X-axis or Y-axis is the product conveying direction or perpendicular to the conveying direction.

[0024] The above technical solution describes the necessary technical means to solve the technical problem. Multiple sets of nozzles 60 and multiple water pipes 50 are used to increase the number of water jets and the number of bread dough pieces cut. Furthermore, the trays holding the bread dough are continuously transported by the conveyor 10, improving production efficiency. Secondly, this application includes a shielding frame 20, the structure of which is clearly disclosed below. When cutting bread dough, water is sprayed from the openwork of the shielding frame 20 to form water jets, cutting the bread dough conveyed by the conveyor 10. After cutting, the dual-axis linear module 30 moves to a position with the nozzles positioned above the V-groove 202. Water that does not stop in time or drips will fall into the V-groove 202 and flow back into the water collection tank 203 for convenient centralized processing. This solves the problem that after water jet cutting, the high-speed water flow forms tiny pits on the food surface, leading to increased surface moisture content.

[0025] In this embodiment, the specific structure of the shielding frame 20 is as follows: the shielding frame 20 includes an outer frame 201 which is vertically fixed at both ends by four support rods, and the outer surfaces of two opposite support rods of the outer frame 201 are fixed to the bottom end of the bracket 70. The shielding frame 20 also includes a number of V-shaped grooves 202, which are arranged in parallel and at equal intervals inside the outer frame 201, and the parallel direction of the V-shaped grooves 202 and the conveying direction are consistent in the path direction.

[0026] Furthermore, the shielding frame 20 also includes a water collection tank 203, and the two ends of several V-shaped grooves 202 are fixed to the inner surface of the outer frame 201 through the water collection tank 203 so that the liquid in the V-shaped grooves 202 flows back into the water collection tank 203.

[0027] In the above description, the V-shaped groove 202 has a V-shaped cross section, which facilitates the concentration of water flow after cutting. It is set at equal intervals inside the outer frame 201, and the distance between adjacent V-shaped grooves 202 is greater than the diameter of the bread dough. The space between adjacent V-shaped grooves 202 is the space for the nozzle 60 to spray high-pressure water flow. The bread dough is directly below this position, so that the high-pressure water flow cuts the bread dough.

[0028] In this embodiment, one end of each water pipe 50 is connected to the high-pressure water flow from the outside, and the other end is connected in series with a second water pipe 80. The second water pipe 80 flows into the waste bin from the outside. The high-pressure water flow from the outside refers to the water flow that has been pressurized by a high-pressure pump or by a pressure tank. In other words, one end of each water pipe 50 is mechanically fixed to the output end of the high-pressure pump or pressure tank to achieve the connection of the high-pressure water flow.

[0029] In this embodiment, the position of the moving platform 40 is controlled by the dual-axis linear module 30, so that the nozzle is aligned with the space of the adjacent V-groove 202 or aligned with the V-groove 202. Specifically, the dual-axis linear module 30 includes a first guide rail 301, a second guide rail 302, a first cylinder 303, a second cylinder 304 and several fixing parts 305. The first guide rail 301 is consistent with the conveying direction and is fixed at the center of the top of the bracket 70. The second guide rail 302 and the first guide rail 301 are perpendicular to each other, and the second guide rail 302 is slidably connected to the bottom of the first guide rail 301 by a fixing member 305. A first cylinder 303 is installed at one end of the first guide rail 301, and the output end of the first cylinder 303 is fixed to the second guide rail 302. A fixing member 305 is provided in the center of the mobile platform 40, and the mobile platform 40 is slidably connected to the bottom of the second guide rail 302 through the fixing member 305. A second cylinder 304 is installed at one end of the second guide rail 302, and the output end of the second cylinder 304 is fixed to the mobile platform 40. The operation of the first cylinder 303 or the second cylinder 304 drives the second guide rail 302 or the moving platform 40 to make linear movement, achieving horizontal or vertical displacement, so that the nozzle on the moving platform 40 is aligned with the space of the adjacent V-groove 202 or aligned with the V-groove 202. The operation of the first cylinder 303 or the second cylinder 304 drives the second guide rail 302 or the moving platform 40 to make fine adjustments, so that the nozzle is aligned with the bread dough conveyed by the conveyor.

[0030] In this embodiment, the shielding frame 20 is made of stainless steel, which is not easy to rust, easy to clean, and meets the standards for food production.

[0031] In this embodiment, a third water pipe is detachably connected to one end of the water collection tank 203 for connecting to an external waste bin. The high-pressure water flow acts on the product, namely the bread dough, which is the last thing to be consumed. In order to reduce contamination and improve food quality, the water after the flow is treated as wastewater.

[0032] In this embodiment, the support 70 described above includes a vertical part 701 and a crossbeam 702. The vertical part 701 has two parts and is a frame formed by welding several support rods perpendicularly to each other. The bottom end of the vertical part 701 is welded to the outer side of the conveyor 10, that is, it is set on both sides of the conveyor 10 in the conveying direction. The horizontal ends of the crossbeam 702 are welded to the top of the vertical part 701 for fixing the first guide rail 301.

[0033] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
