Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of poultry processing equipment, specifically to an automatic tail removal device for quail processing. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most quail processing enterprises in China still rely on traditional manual operations for tail removal. The process involves manually picking up each quail, positioning it, and then using a cutter to remove its tail. The processed quail is then transferred to the next processing stage. This manual tail removal method requires a significant workforce, and the high intensity of the work, coupled with the fatigue caused by repetitive actions, hinders efficiency and fails to meet the continuous operation requirements of large-scale production. Furthermore, manual operation is unstable, influenced by subjective factors such as the operator's skill level and fatigue, making it difficult to guarantee the positioning accuracy of the quail. This can lead to cutting position deviations, wasting raw materials and potentially disrupting subsequent processing steps due to incomplete tail removal, ultimately reducing the final product's pass rate.

[0003] To address the drawbacks of manual tail removal, some companies have begun to introduce automated equipment to assist in the process. However, existing equipment often relies solely on simple conveying mechanisms to transport quails, lacking dedicated material guiding and positioning components. This leads to issues such as positional shifts and skewed postures when the quails are conveyed to the cutting module, preventing the cutting blade from accurately aligning with the tail removal position and resulting in processing accuracy that fails to meet industry standards. Furthermore, the coordination between the conveying mechanism and the cutting module in some automated devices is low, leading to jams and material breaks during the connection between material transport and cutting actions. This results in poor continuity of the workflow, requiring frequent manual intervention and adjustments. Instead of effectively reducing labor costs, this process actually increases operational complexity, making it difficult to achieve truly efficient and automated tail removal. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this utility model provides an automatic tail removal device for quail processing. By utilizing the cooperation of a conveyor belt and a cutting module, it can complete automated tail removal operations with high continuity of the operation process and minimal human intervention. It can significantly improve work efficiency while reducing the use of manual labor. The design of the material guiding component can improve the stability of the material when passing through the cutting blade, avoid material skewing, and make the cutting operation more precise.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an automatic tail removal device for quail processing, comprising a frame, a conveyor belt disposed in the middle of the frame, a cutting module disposed above the frame, a material guiding component disposed in front of the cutting module, the cutting module comprising a cutting blade, and a pre-pressure plate disposed in front of the cutting blade.

[0006] As a further improvement to the above technical solution:

[0007] The pre-pressing plate includes a guide ramp and a pre-cutting plate, and the distance between the pre-cutting plate and the conveyor belt gradually decreases as the material is conveyed.

[0008] The cutting blade has a rotating shaft in the middle, and bearing seats are provided at both ends of the rotating shaft.

[0009] The pre-pressure plate is located inside the cutting blade, and a limit baffle is provided on the outside of the cutting blade. The distance between the limit baffle and the pre-pressure plate gradually decreases as the conveying direction extends.

[0010] The conveyor belt has multiple partitions in the middle, and a storage bin for placing materials is formed between two adjacent partitions.

[0011] The material guiding assembly includes a pressure rod one and a pressure rod two located on both sides of the storage compartment, and a material inlet gap is provided between the pressure rod one and the pressure rod two.

[0012] A pressure bar three is provided above the storage compartment. The front end of the pressure bar three is provided with a receiving bar extending to one end of the pressure bar, and the other end extends to the inside of the pre-pressing plate.

[0013] The receiving rod is installed at an angle, and its height gradually decreases along the direction of material conveying.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model embodiment are as follows: The automatic tail removal device for quail processing includes a frame, a conveyor belt in the middle of the frame, and a cutting module above the frame. The conveyor belt is used to continuously transport materials and complete the tail removal and cutting of materials during the transport process. The tail removal operation can be completed by manual feeding. The operation process has high continuity and less manual intervention. It can significantly improve the operation efficiency while reducing the use of manpower.

[0015] A material guiding component is provided on the front side of the cutting module.

[0022] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] See Figure 1-5 This utility model discloses an automatic tail removal device for quail processing, including a frame 1. A conveyor belt 2 for conveying quail materials is installed in the middle of the frame 1. To ensure that the materials do not shift during the conveying process and can be individually positioned, multiple partitions 8 are evenly arranged in the middle of the conveyor belt 2. An independent storage compartment 9 is formed between two adjacent partitions 8. Each storage compartment 9 can accurately place one quail to be processed, providing a basis for subsequent orderly processing.

[0024] To guide the material smoothly into the storage bin 9 and maintain its stable posture, a material guiding assembly is installed at the material inlet end of the device, i.e., the front side of the cutting module. This material guiding assembly includes three sets of pressure rods, which limit the material from different directions: pressure rod one 10 and pressure rod two 11 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the storage bin 9, with a pre-reserved inlet gap 12 between them and the transmission belt 2 to allow the material to enter, preventing the material from shifting in the lateral direction; while pressure rod three 13 is installed directly above the storage bin 9 to press the material tightly against the transmission belt 2, facilitating subsequent cutting operations. Its front end extends to the end of pressure rod one 10 and is equipped with a receiving rod 14. The receiving rod 14 is installed at an angle, and its height gradually decreases along the material conveying direction, which can guide the material smoothly into the subsequent cutting area. At the same time, the other end of pressure rod three 13 extends to the inside of the pre-pressing plate 4 of the cutting module, further ensuring that the material maintains a stable posture before cutting.

[0025] The cutting module is installed above the frame 1 and behind the material guiding assembly. It mainly consists of a cutting blade 3, a pre-pressure plate 4, and a limiting baffle 7. The pre-pressure plate 4 is located inside the cutting blade 3 and its structure is divided into a material guiding ramp 5 and a pre-cutting plate 6. The distance between the pre-cutting plate 6 and the conveyor belt 2 gradually decreases along the material conveying direction. This design allows the material to be gradually pressed down and positioned before entering the cutting area, preventing the material from shaking during cutting. A rotating shaft 15 is installed in the middle of the cutting blade 3. The two ends of the rotating shaft 15 are fixed to the frame 1 by bearing seats 16, ensuring that the cutting blade 3 can rotate stably to achieve the cutting action. In addition, a limiting baffle 7 is set on the outside of the cutting blade 3. The distance between the limiting baffle 7 and the pre-pressure plate 4 gradually decreases as the conveying direction extends. Together with the pre-pressure plate 4, it forms a limiting position on the material cutting part (i.e., the tail), further ensuring the accurate positioning of the material during the cutting process, and ultimately achieving efficient and stable automatic tail removal processing.
