Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of material cutting technology, and in particular to a material cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] Materials refer to all kinds of raw materials required in the production, manufacturing, or service process. In the production of food materials, cutting fruits in half is a common step, such as betel nuts, dried apples, and dried apricots.

[0003] In the production of whole fruits, the operator holds the whole fruit in his hand and then uses a blade to cut the material along its length, dividing the whole fruit into two halves.

[0004] The above-mentioned method of manually cutting materials makes it difficult for humans to ensure that each cut is along the central axis of the whole fruit, which may result in uneven cut surfaces. This method is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and leads to low production efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the problem of manual material cutting, where it is difficult to ensure precise cuts along the central axis of the entire fruit with each stroke, potentially resulting in uneven cuts, wasting time and effort, and leading to low production efficiency, this application provides a material cutting device with the following technical solution: It includes a mounting frame, on which a cutting mechanism for cutting materials and a limiting mechanism for fixing materials are provided. The mounting frame also includes a moving mechanism for driving the entire fruit on the limiting mechanism through the cutting mechanism to achieve whole-fruit cutting.

[0006] In one specific implementation, the cutting mechanism includes a blade holder disposed on the mounting bracket, the blade holder having a blade with the cutting end of the blade facing the limiting mechanism.

[0007] In one specific implementation, the tool holder has a mounting hole, the blade has an anti-detachment block, the blade passes through the mounting hole and the anti-detachment block is mounted on the tool holder, and the tool holder has a limiting unit for limiting the position of the blade.

[0008] In one specific implementation, the limiting unit includes a top block disposed in the mounting hole, the blade abutting between the top block and the wall of the mounting hole, and a fixing rod provided on the blade holder, the end of the fixing rod facing the top block abutting against the top block.

[0009] In one specific implementation, the limiting mechanism includes a fixed frame mounted on a mounting frame, the fixed frame having two sets of clamping parts, the material being located between the two sets of clamping parts, and the fixed frame having a drive unit for driving the two clamping parts to move.

[0010] In one specific implementation, the drive unit includes two telescopic components disposed on the fixed frame. The telescopic components are located between the clamping part and the moving mechanism. The output end of the telescopic component is provided with a connecting frame, and the connecting frame is provided with a connecting rod. The clamping part is disposed on the connecting rod, and the fixed frame is provided with a limiting component for limiting the movement of the clamping part.

[0011] In one specific implementation, the limiting component includes a guide rail disposed on the fixed frame, a guide block that matches the guide rail is slidably connected on the guide rail, and the clamping part is disposed on the guide block.

[0012] In one specific implementation, the two sets of clamping parts each include two limiting blocks, and the two ends of the connecting rod pass through the two limiting blocks respectively. The two limiting blocks of the clamping parts in the same group are respectively provided with shaped grooves that match the material on their opposite surfaces, and the material is located between the two shaped grooves.

[0013] In one specific implementation, the fixing frame is provided with a movable component, the movable end of the movable component is provided with an adjustment plate, and at least one limiting block of the clamping part in the same group is provided on the adjustment plate.

[0014] In one specific implementation, the moving mechanism includes a linear module mounted on a mounting bracket, and a fixed bracket mounted on a slide of the linear module, wherein the moving direction of the slide of the linear module is parallel to the cutting direction of the blade.

[0015] In summary, this application has the following beneficial technical effects: Therefore, when it is necessary to cut a whole fruit, the limiting mechanism fixes the material, reduces the possibility of material position displacement during the cutting process, improves the stability of material placement, and starts the moving mechanism to move the whole fruit on the limiting mechanism through the cutting mechanism. The cutting mechanism cuts the whole fruit, thereby realizing automated material cutting while saving labor costs, reducing the possibility of uneven material cut surface caused by manual cutting, saving time and effort, and improving the quality and efficiency of whole fruit cutting.

[0020] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0021] This application discloses a material cutting device.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The material cutting device includes a mounting frame 1, on which a cutting mechanism 2 for cutting materials and a limiting mechanism 3 for fixing materials are provided. The mounting frame 1 also includes a moving mechanism 4 for driving the whole fruit on the limiting mechanism 3 through the cutting mechanism 2 to cut the whole fruit. This embodiment uses the cutting of areca nuts as an example for illustration.

[0023] Therefore, when the whole fruit needs to be cut, the limiting mechanism 3 fixes the material, reducing the possibility of material displacement during the cutting process and improving the stability of material placement. The moving mechanism 4 is activated, and the material on the limiting mechanism 3 passes through the cutting mechanism 2. The cutting mechanism 2 cuts the material into pieces, thereby realizing automated material cutting while saving labor costs, reducing the possibility of uneven material cut surfaces caused by manual cutting, saving time and effort, and improving the quality and production efficiency of whole fruit cutting.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The cutting mechanism 2 includes a blade holder 5 bolted to the mounting bracket 1. A blade 6 is mounted on the blade holder 5, with the cutting end of the blade 6 facing the limiting mechanism 3. In this embodiment, the cutting end of the blade 6 is inclined, meaning the height of the second end 22 of the blade 6 is higher than the height of the first end 21. Therefore, when the inclined blade 6 contacts the material, the cutting force gradually transitions from the higher second end 22 to the lower first end 21, forming a progressive cut. This staged force application significantly reduces the instantaneous impact force during initial cutting, extending the service life of the blade 6.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The blade holder 5 has mounting holes 7, and anti-detachment blocks 8 are fixedly connected to the blade 6. The blade 6 passes through the mounting holes 7, and the anti-detachment blocks 8 are mounted on the blade holder 5. In this embodiment, there are two anti-detachment blocks 8, and the cutting end of the blade 6 is located between the two anti-detachment blocks 8. The anti-detachment blocks 8 limit the position of the blade 6, making the blade 6 stably mounted on the blade holder 5 and reducing the possibility of the blade 6 detaching from the blade holder 5. The anti-detachment blocks 8 also make it easier for the operator to quickly mount the blade 6 on the blade holder 5, improving the convenience of mounting the blade 6.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The tool holder 5 is provided with a limiting unit for limiting the position of the blade 6. The limiting unit includes a top block 9 disposed in the mounting hole 7. The blade 6 is pressed against the top block 9 and the hole wall of the mounting hole 7. The tool holder 5 is provided with a fixing hole 25. A fixing rod is inserted into the fixing hole 25 and is threaded to the hole wall of the fixing hole 25. The end of the fixing rod facing the top block 9 abuts against the top block 9. In this embodiment, a fixing groove is provided on the surface of the top block 9 facing the fixing rod. The diameter of the fixing groove is slightly larger than the diameter of the fixing rod. The end of the fixing rod facing the top block 9 is inserted into the fixing groove and abuts against the bottom of the fixing groove.

[0027] Therefore, the end of the fixing rod facing the top block 9 is inserted into the fixing groove to reduce the possibility of the top block 9 coming out of the mounting hole 7. The end of the fixing rod facing the top block 9 abuts against the bottom of the fixing groove on the top block 9, so that the top block 9 is always close to the blade 6 to limit the position of the blade 6, reducing the possibility of the blade 6 being subjected to force vibration or position displacement during the cutting process, and improving the stability of the blade 6 during the cutting process.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The limiting mechanism 3 includes a fixed frame 10 mounted on the mounting frame 1. The fixed frame 10 has two sets of clamping parts 18, and a support base 26 is bolted to the fixed frame 10. The material is placed on the support base 26 and is located between the two sets of clamping parts 18. The fixed frame 10 is equipped with a drive unit for moving the two clamping parts 18. The drive unit includes two telescopic components 19 mounted on the fixed frame 10. The telescopic components 19 are located between the clamping parts 18 and the moving mechanism 4. A connecting frame 11 is installed at the output end of the telescopic components 19. In this embodiment, the telescopic components 19 can be telescopic cylinders 20. The connecting frame 11 is bolted to the output end of the telescopic cylinders 20, and the two telescopic cylinders 20 are arranged opposite to each other.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3A connecting rod is installed on the connecting frame 11, and a clamping part 18 is set on the connecting rod. Each of the two sets of clamping parts 18 includes two limiting blocks 14, and both ends of the connecting rod pass through the two limiting blocks 14. In this embodiment, the number of limiting blocks 14 in each set of clamping parts 18 can be set according to the actual situation on site. It can be set to one side with a single limiting block 14 and the other side with two limiting blocks 14, or the number of limiting blocks 14 in each set of clamping parts 18 can be set to two or more. In this embodiment, the number of limiting blocks 14 in each set of clamping parts 18 is set to two as an example. On the opposite surfaces of the two limiting blocks 14 located in the same set of clamping parts 18, shaped grooves 15 matching the material are respectively opened. In this embodiment, the shape of the shaped grooves 15 is set according to the shape of the areca nut, and the whole areca nut is located between the four shaped grooves 15.

[0030] Therefore, by simultaneously activating the two telescopic cylinders 20, the connecting frame 11 at the output end of the two telescopic cylinders 20 is moved, so that the material is located between the four grooves 15. The grooves 15 limit the position of the areca nut, reduce the possibility of the areca nut shifting, and improve the stability of the areca nut during the cutting process.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The fixing frame 10 is provided with a limiting component to limit the movement of the clamping part 18. The limiting component includes a guide rail 12 disposed on the fixing frame 10, a guide block 13 of matching size slidably connected to the guide rail 12, and a limiting block 14 bolted to the guide block 13. In this embodiment, the four limiting blocks 14 are arranged opposite each other in pairs. The guide rail 12 limits the movement direction of the guide block 13, reducing the possibility of positional deviation during the movement of the guide block 13 carrying the limiting blocks 14.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A movable component 23 is provided on the fixed frame 10, and an adjusting plate 16 is provided on the movable end of the movable component 23. At least one limiting block 14 of the clamping part 18 in the same group is provided on the adjusting plate 16. In this embodiment, the movable component 23 can be a finger slide cylinder 24. The adjusting plate 16 is respectively installed on the two slides of the finger slide cylinder 24, and the two limiting blocks 14 of the clamping part 18 in the same group are respectively provided on the two adjusting plates 16. Therefore, when the finger slide cylinder 24 is activated, the adjusting plates 16 on the two slides of the finger slide cylinder 24 slide. Since the limiting block 14 is installed on the guide block 13, and the guide block 13 is installed on the adjusting plate 16 through the guide rail 12, the distance between the two limiting blocks 14 in the same group can be adjusted when the two adjusting plates 16 slide, which is convenient for handling betel nuts of different sizes, has greater flexibility, and improves the applicability of the limiting mechanism 3.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The moving mechanism 4 includes a linear module 17 mounted on the mounting frame 1, and a fixed frame 10 mounted on the slide of the linear module 17. The moving direction of the slide of the linear module 17 is parallel to the cutting direction of the blade 6. Therefore, when the linear module 17 is activated, the fixed frame 10 on the slide of the linear module 17 slides, causing the material on the fixed frame 10 to pass through the blade 6. The blade 6 cuts along the central axis of the areca nut to achieve the cutting of the areca nut into pieces.

[0034] The implementation principle of this application embodiment is as follows: When it is necessary to cut areca nuts into pieces, two telescopic cylinders 20 are activated simultaneously, driving the connecting frame 11 at the output end of the two telescopic cylinders 20 to move, so that the areca nuts are positioned between the four grooves 15. The grooves 15 limit the position of the areca nuts, reducing the possibility of the areca nuts shifting during the cutting process and improving the stability of the areca nuts. The linear module 17 is activated, driving the fixed frame 10 on the slide of the linear module 17 to slide, so that the areca nuts on the fixed frame 10 pass through the blade 6. The blade 6 cuts the areca nuts along the central axis of the areca nuts, thereby realizing automated cutting of areca nuts while saving labor costs, reducing the possibility of uneven areca nut cut surfaces caused by manual cutting, saving time and effort, and improving the quality of areca nut cut surfaces and production efficiency.

[0035] In related technologies, the automated cutting of areca nuts often uses quick-release cutters to cut areca nuts one by one on the conveyor line. This method relies on the setting of mechanical cycle time between the positioning process, the moving process and the cutting process. The step-by-step execution method is prone to waste of mechanical cycle time. However, this application achieves the cutting of areca nuts in the process of moving the process, integrating the traditionally separate positioning, moving and cutting processes into a continuous dynamic process, which has significant advantages in terms of efficiency and maintenance cost.
