Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the AAA technology field, specifically to an automated production line for processing semi-finished seafood products. Background Technology

[0002] Cleaning clams and other shellfish is a crucial step in the processing of semi-finished seafood.

[0003] In existing technologies, clam cleaning devices typically only allow the cleaning basket to move up and down (e.g., driven by a cylinder or chain) to load and unload clams. This results in a relatively fixed posture for the clams within the basket. Due to the irregular shape of clam shells and their tendency to stack, gaps and folds in the shells can easily create blind spots for cleaning. While the cavitation effect generated by ultrasonic vibration can remove surface mud and sand, it is insufficient to allow water to fully penetrate areas where clams are in close contact or deep folds, making it difficult to completely remove mud and sand from some gaps. Therefore, this invention proposes an automated production line for processing semi-finished seafood products to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing clam cleaning technologies, such as blind spots, residue after feeding, and reliance on manual labor, a shaking mechanism with cams and baffles is implemented to shake the cleaning basket, breaking the fixed posture of the clams. A feeding mechanism with baffles and springs ensures automatic, residue-free feeding, avoiding incomplete cleaning and manual intervention, and is compatible with production lines.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automated production line for processing semi-finished seafood, including an ultrasonic cleaning box. The ultrasonic cleaning box has an open top. A side plate and a drain pipe are fixedly connected to the side wall of the ultrasonic cleaning box. An electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the lower end of the side plate. A fixing plate is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod. The outer wall of the fixing plate is U-shaped. A cleaning basket is installed at the lower end of the fixing plate. A cleaning groove is opened on the end face of the cleaning basket. The bottom of the cleaning groove is inclined. Multiple sets of through holes are opened through the bottom of the cleaning groove. A shaking mechanism is installed inside the ultrasonic cleaning box. A feeding mechanism is installed inside the cleaning basket. The shaking mechanism causes the cleaning basket to shake inside the ultrasonic cleaning chamber. The feeding mechanism is used to drive the material in the cleaning basket to be fed out.

[0006] Preferably, the shaking mechanism includes a baffle fixedly connected to the side wall of the cleaning basket, the side wall of the baffle being wavy, a cam fixedly connected to the inner wall of the ultrasonic cleaning box, the flange of the cam contacting the side wall of the baffle, and two sets of sliding rods slidably connected to the side wall of the fixed plate, the ends of the two sets of sliding rods being fixedly connected to the outer walls on both sides of the cleaning basket.

[0007] Preferably, a limiting block is fixedly connected to one end of each of the two sets of sliding rods. The radius of the limiting block is larger than the radius of the sliding rod. A spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the sliding rod, and the two ends of the spring are fixedly connected to the fixing plate and the side wall of the cleaning basket, respectively.

[0008] Preferably, the feeding mechanism includes a feeding baffle, a sliding groove is provided through the side wall of the cleaning basket, the cleaning groove is inclined to the inner wall of the side of the sliding groove, a guide groove is provided on the end face of the cleaning basket and extends into the sliding groove, and the feeding baffle is slidably connected to the guide groove and the sliding groove.

[0009] Preferably, a fixing frame is fixedly connected to the end face of the cleaning basket, and a connecting rod is slidably connected to the outer wall of the fixing frame, with the end of the connecting rod fixedly connected to the end face of the discharge baffle.

[0010] Preferably, a connecting block is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod, and a second spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod. The two ends of the second spring are fixedly connected to the fixing frame and the connecting block, respectively.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides an automated production line for processing semi-finished seafood products, which has the following beneficial effects: 1. This utility model uses a cam in conjunction with a wave-shaped baffle in a shaking mechanism. Under the guidance of a slide rod and the buffering effect of a spring, the cleaning basket is driven to produce a lateral reciprocating shaking. This can effectively break the fixed posture of clams during the cleaning process, allowing the gaps and folds of the shells to be fully exposed to the water flow and ultrasonic vibration. This solves the problem of mud and sand residue caused by the single movement of the cleaning basket in the prior art, and improves the cleaning cleanliness.

[0012] 2. This utility model, through the linkage of the connecting block, connecting rod and the feeding baffle of the feeding mechanism, and with the automatic reset function of the second spring, can realize the rapid feeding of clams through the chute. Combined with the inclined design of the cleaning tank, it avoids the residue problem of traditional feeding, reduces manual intervention, and allows the cleaned clams to smoothly enter the subsequent process, which is suitable for the continuous operation requirements of automated production lines.

[0015] This utility model provides a technical solution for an automated production line for processing semi-finished seafood products: Please see Figure 1-3 An automated production line for processing semi-finished seafood includes an ultrasonic cleaning box 1. The ultrasonic cleaning box 1 has an open top. A side plate 3 and a drain pipe 2 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the ultrasonic cleaning box 1. An electric telescopic rod 4 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the side plate 3. A fixed plate 5 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 4. The outer wall of the fixed plate 5 is U-shaped. A cleaning basket 7 is installed and connected to the lower end of the fixed plate 5. A cleaning trough 6 is opened on the end face of the cleaning basket 7. The bottom of the cleaning trough 6 is inclined. Multiple sets of through holes are opened through the bottom of the cleaning trough 6. A shaking mechanism is installed inside the ultrasonic cleaning box 1. A feeding mechanism is installed inside the cleaning basket 7. The vibration mechanism causes the cleaning basket 7 to vibrate inside the ultrasonic cleaning box 1. The feeding mechanism is used to drive the material to be fed into the cleaning basket 7; Furthermore, the shaking mechanism causes the cleaning basket 7 to shake inside the ultrasonic cleaning box 1, which breaks the fixed posture of the clams during the cleaning process. Combined with the through hole at the bottom of the cleaning tank 6, the water flow can fully penetrate into the gaps of the clam shells.

[0016] The shaking mechanism includes a baffle 9 fixedly connected to the side wall of the cleaning basket 7. The side wall of the baffle 9 is wavy. A cam 8 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the ultrasonic cleaning box 1. The flange of the cam 8 contacts the side wall of the baffle 9. Two sets of slide rods 10 are slidably connected to the side wall of the fixed plate 5. The ends of the two sets of slide rods 10 are fixedly connected to the outer walls on both sides of the cleaning basket 7. Furthermore, the cooperation between the cam 8 and the wave-shaped baffle 9 causes the cleaning basket 7 to oscillate laterally. Combined with the extension and retraction of the electric telescopic rod 4 and the guidance of the slide rod 10, the clams can be continuously turned over in the cleaning tank 6, avoiding them from piling up and forming blind spots in the cleaning process, thus enhancing the ultrasonic cleaning effect.

[0017] Both sets of slide rods 10 are fixedly connected to a limit block 11 at one end. The radius of the limit block 11 is larger than the radius of the slide rod 10. A spring 12 is sleeved on the outer wall of the slide rod 10. The two ends of the spring 12 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the fixing plate 5 and the cleaning basket 7, respectively. Furthermore, the limiting block 11 can prevent the slide bar 10 from detaching from the fixed plate 5, ensuring the stable operation of the shaking mechanism, while the elastic effect of the spring 12 can provide a buffer for the shaking of the washing basket 7, reduce the rigid collision between the washing basket 7 and other components, and reduce the risk of clam shell damage.

[0018] The feeding mechanism includes a feeding baffle 19, a sliding groove 13 is provided through the side wall of the cleaning basket 7, the cleaning trough 6 is inclined to the inner wall of the side of the sliding groove 13, a guide groove 14 is provided on the end face of the cleaning basket 7 and extends into the sliding groove 13, and the feeding baffle 19 is slidably connected to the guide groove 14 and the sliding groove 13. Furthermore, the guide groove 14 provides a stable sliding path for the discharge baffle 19. In conjunction with the inclined inner wall of the cleaning tank 6, when the discharge baffle 19 is opened, the clams can be smoothly discharged from the chute 13 along the inclined direction.

[0019] A fixed frame 15 is fixedly connected to the end face of the cleaning basket 7. A connecting rod 16 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the fixed frame 15. The end of the connecting rod 16 is fixedly connected to the end face of the discharge baffle 19. Furthermore, the fixed frame 15 provides support and guidance for the connecting rod 16, making the sliding of the feeding baffle 19 driven by the connecting rod 16 more stable.

[0020] One end of the connecting rod 16 is fixedly connected to a connecting block 17, and a second spring 18 is sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod 16. The two ends of the second spring 18 are fixedly connected to the fixed frame 15 and the connecting block 17, respectively. Furthermore, after the connecting block 17 is released, the spring 18 can drive the connecting rod 16 and the discharge baffle 19 to automatically reset, so that the discharge baffle 19 fits tightly against the slide groove 13, preventing water and clams from leaking out of the slide groove 13 during the cleaning process.

[0021] When operators use this automated seafood semi-finished product processing production line, in the initial state, the cleaning basket 7 is located above the ultrasonic cleaning box 1, which makes it easy to put the clams to be cleaned into the cleaning tank 6. When the cleaning operation needs to begin, the operator activates the device, and the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 4 extends downwards, causing the cleaning basket 7 to gradually descend via the fixed plate 5 until the clams in the cleaning tank 6 are completely immersed in the water of the ultrasonic cleaning box 1. At this time, the ultrasonic cleaning box 1 starts working, generating high-frequency vibrations to remove mud and sand from the clam shells. Simultaneously, the shaking mechanism is activated, and with the reciprocating contraction and extension of the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 4, the flange of the cam 8 continuously contacts and pushes the wave-shaped baffle 9 on the side wall of the cleaning basket 7. Guided by the slide rod 10, the cleaning basket 7 swings back and forth horizontally, while the spring 12 continuously extends and retracts during the swinging process, providing cushioning for the cleaning basket 7 and preventing it from rigidly colliding with the fixed plate 5. During this shaking process, the clams in the cleaning tank 6 continuously turn and roll, breaking up their original stacked state and fully exposing the gaps and folds in their shells to the water flow. The through holes at the bottom of the cleaning tank 6 promptly discharge the detached mud, sand, and impurities with the water flow, preventing impurities from re-adhering to the clam surface and effectively solving the problem of blind spots in cleaning caused by the fixed posture of the clams. After cleaning, the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 4 retracts upward, raising the cleaning basket 7 above the ultrasonic cleaning box 1 to drain the water. At this time, the operator pulls the connecting block 17, which drives the discharge baffle 19 to slide along the guide groove 14 via the connecting rod 16, opening the slide 13. Since the bottom of the cleaning tank 6 and the inner wall of the side close to the slide 13 are inclined, the clams slide out of the slide 13 under the action of gravity, completing the automatic discharge. After releasing the connecting block 17, the spring 18 returns to its original position, pushing the connecting rod 16 and the discharge baffle 19 back to their original positions, so that the discharge baffle 19 fits tightly against the slide 13 again, preventing water or material leakage in subsequent operations. Throughout the process, the shaking mechanism ensures thorough cleaning of clams by continuous shaking, while the feeding mechanism enables rapid and residue-free feeding. The combination of the two reduces manual intervention, improving cleaning efficiency and reducing the breakage rate of clam shells, thus meeting the continuous operation requirements of automated production lines. The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the technical features of this utility model are not limited thereto. Any simple changes, equivalent substitutions, or modifications made based on this utility model to solve essentially the same technical problems and achieve essentially the same technical effects are all covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
