Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cheese processing technology, and in particular to a cheese dicing production line. Background Technology

[0002] Cheese, also known as curd, is a fermented milk product. Its properties are similar to common yogurt, both being made through fermentation and containing beneficial lactic acid bacteria. However, cheese is more concentrated than yogurt, almost like a solid food, and therefore has a richer nutritional value. The production and processing of cheese requires the use of slicing equipment.

[0003] For example, patent application number CN202320374139.7 discloses a cheese slicer, including a worktable with a connecting column on the worktable. A support platform is provided on the upper surface of the connecting column, and a vertically arranged drive cylinder is provided on the support platform. A blade holder is provided on the side of the drive cylinder away from the support platform, and at least one cutter for cutting cheese is provided on the blade holder. A clearance groove is provided on the support platform corresponding to the position of the cutter. Rubber pads are provided on both sides of the support platform corresponding to the clearance groove. A guide slope is provided on the rubber pads near the clearance groove, and the guide slope is inclined from the upper surface of the rubber pads towards the side away from the clearance groove. This type of slicing device adopts a single-blade design. When continuously feeding, the downward pressing of the cutter can only achieve horizontal slicing of cheese, making it difficult to further control the size of the cheese slices, affecting the output quality, and needs to be optimized.

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0027] according to Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3, 4, and 5, this embodiment proposes a cheese dicing production line, which includes a conveyor line body. The conveyor line body includes a mounting frame 3 and multiple conveyor platforms 1 located inside the mounting frame 3. A conveyor belt 2 is laid on the conveyor platform 1.

[0028] The tail of the conveyor 1 is provided with a slicing box 4, which is fixedly connected to the conveyor 1. The slicing box 4 is provided with a first guide roller 10, and a first set of blades for cutting cheese into strips is provided above the first guide roller 10.

[0029] The end of the main body of the conveyor line will pass through a cold storage. After the cheese on the conveyor belt 2 is shaped by the low temperature, the cheese will enter the slicing box 4 through the conveyor belt 2. When entering the slicing box 4, the first blade group above the first guide roller 10 will cut the cheese into several strips.

[0030] The slicing box 4 has a discharge port 5 on the side away from the conveyor table 1; a second guide roller 17 is provided inside the discharge port 5, and a second blade assembly for cutting the cheese is provided above the second guide roller 17. A drive assembly for controlling the movement of the first guide roller 10, the second guide roller 17 and the first blade assembly is provided on the outside of the slicing box 4.

[0031] The drive assembly controls the rotation of the first guide roller 10 and the second guide roller 17 to send the cheese cut into strips out of the outlet 5. During the sending process, the second blade group above the second guide roller 17 will cut the cheese into strips and then put it out in slices.

[0032] The first guide roller 10, together with the second guide roller 17, delivers the sliced ​​cheese and uses the same drive source to control the first blade group. The linkage design can accurately ensure the timing matching of blade cutting and material conveying, avoid the cutting position deviation caused by synchronization error between multiple drive sources, and prevent problems such as cheese jamming and stagnation, thus improving cheese slicing efficiency and smooth passage.

[0033] It is worth explaining in detail that the left and right ends of the first guide roller 10 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the slicing box 4.

[0034] The left and right ends of the second guide roller 17 are rotatably connected to the inner sidewall of the slicing box 4, and the second guide roller 17 is placed horizontally with the first guide roller 10. The rotation direction of the first guide roller 10 is the same as the conveying direction of the second guide roller 17 and the conveyor belt 2.

[0035] Regarding the first and second cutting sets:

[0036] The first blade assembly includes a slicing roller 8, which is positioned above the first guide roller 10. The left and right ends of the slicing roller 8 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the slicing box 4. Several annular blades 9 are provided on the outer side of the slicing roller 8, and the annular blades 9 are fixedly connected to the slicing roller 8.

[0037] As the cheese passes between the slicing roller 8 and the first guide roller 10, the slicing roller 8 cuts the cheese into strips using the annular blades 9. The width of the cheese strips is determined by the spacing of the annular blades 9 on the slicing roller 8.

[0038] To ensure that cheese slices of different lengths can be cut, the second blade assembly adopts a downward-pressing blade assembly and is controlled by an independent drive source. Specifically, the second blade assembly includes a slicing blade 16 and a mounting plate 18. The mounting plate 18 is fixedly installed inside the slicing box 4. The slicing blade 16 is placed above the second guide roller 17. A guide rail 21 is installed on the side of the mounting plate 18 facing the third gear 14. A slider is installed on the guide rail 21. The slider is fixedly connected to the slicing blade 16. The mounting plate 18 is provided with a linkage mechanism for controlling the vertical rise and fall of the slicing blade 16.

[0039] More specifically, the linkage mechanism includes a crank 19, one end of which is rotatably connected to a mounting plate 18, and a connecting rod 20 at the other end of the crank 19. One end of the connecting rod 20 is rotatably connected to a cutting blade 16, and the other end of the connecting rod 20 is rotatably connected to the crank 19. A motor for controlling the rotation of the crank 19 is provided on the side of the mounting plate 18 away from the crank 19.

[0040] The motor controls the crank 19 to rotate, and the crank 19 will drive the connecting rod 20 to swing. The connecting rod 20 will pull or push the cleaver 16 during the swing, so that the cleaver 16 can move up and down on one side of the mounting plate 18. Since the guide rail 21 cooperates with the slider on the cleaver 16, when the cleaver 16 moves, the slider will slide along the guide rail 21, converting the rotational motion of the crank 19 into the vertical reciprocating motion of the cleaver 16, thus realizing the slitting operation of the cleaver 16.

[0041] Regarding driver components:

[0042] The drive assembly includes the main drive component and the gear transmission component;

[0043] The driving component includes a main motor 11, which is mounted on the outside of the slicing box 4, and the output end of the main motor 11 is fixedly connected to the second guide roller 17.

[0044] The gear transmission component includes a first gear 12, a second gear 13, and a third gear 14. The first gear 12, the second gear 13, and the third gear 14 are installed on the side of the slicing box 4 away from the main motor 11. The third gear 14 is fixedly connected to the second guide roller 17. The first gear 12 is fixedly connected to the slicing roller 8. The second gear 13 is fixedly connected to the first guide roller 10. The first gear 12 meshes with the second gear 13. A fourth gear 15 is provided between the second gear 13 and the third gear 14. The fourth gear 15 meshes with the second gear 13 and the third gear 14. The fourth gear 15 is rotatably connected to the slicing box 4.

[0045] After the main motor 11 controls the second guide roller 17 to rotate, the second guide roller 17 will drive the third gear 14 to rotate. The third gear 14 meshes with the fourth gear 15. The fourth gear 15 meshes with the second gear 13 during rotation, thereby controlling the first guide roller 10 to rotate. Due to the presence of the fourth gear 15, the first guide roller 10 and the second guide roller 17 will rotate in the same direction, thus successfully completing the guidance and conveying of the cheese.

[0046] The second gear 13 meshes directly with the first gear 12, driving the first gear 12 to rotate counterclockwise. This causes the slicing roller 8 and the first guide roller 10 to rotate in opposite directions. The slicing roller 8 cuts the cheese as it rotates. Since there is no intermediate gear between the second gear 13 and the first gear 12, when the first guide roller 10 rotates, the rotation direction of the slicing roller 8 is also opposite to the rotation direction of the first guide roller 10, ensuring that the cheese can be smoothly extruded between the first guide roller 10 and the slicing roller 8.

[0047] In a preferred embodiment, a spray pipe 6 is installed above each conveyor belt 2, and the spray pipe 6 is fixedly connected to a spray bracket 7 located on the outside of the conveyor platform 1. The spray pipe 6 is used to rinse and clean the surface of the conveyor belt 2 after the equipment is stopped. The cleaned conveyor belt is dried by a hot air drying device to prevent residual water stains from contaminating the cheese.

[0048] How this application works:

[0049] The end of the conveyor line passes through a cold storage room, where the cheese on conveyor belt 2 is shaped by low temperature. The cheese then enters the slicing box 4 via conveyor belt 2. Upon entering the slicing box 4, the first set of blades above the first guide roller 10 cuts the cheese into several strips. The drive assembly controls the rotation of the first guide roller 10 and the second guide roller 17, feeding the sliced ​​cheese out of the discharge port 5. During the feeding process, the second set of blades above the second guide roller 17 cuts the sliced ​​cheese into pieces, which are then released outwards.
