Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, specifically to a sausage cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] In sausage production, after filling, sausages are typically continuously wrapped in casings to form multiple segments, which are connected by twisted casings. These twisted sections are then cut off. CN218052973U discloses a sausage cutting machine, including a machine body with a rotatable drum mounted on it. Cutting blades are arranged circumferentially on the inner wall of the drum. The blades include a blade holder and cross-stacked double blades forming a cutting opening. Sausages are fed into the machine through an inlet at one end of the drum. As the drum rotates, the twisted casings between the sausages are guided to the cutting opening, where the cross-blades cut them. The spirally distributed blades propel the sausages forward and scrape off any sausage that may remain on the blades, ensuring continuous operation of the equipment.

[0003] Existing sausage cutting devices have the following problems: during the rotation of the drum, some sausages are prone to stop or get stuck on the blade structure, and the twisted parts are difficult to cut off in time, which affects the entry of subsequent sausages and requires manual intervention to clean them. The continuous operation efficiency and automation level of the equipment are low.

[0004] Based on the above situation, there is an urgent need for a gut-cutting device to solve the problem that the twisted parts are difficult to cut off in a timely manner. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem that in existing sausage cutting devices, some sausages tend to stagnate or get stuck on the blade structure during the rotation of the drum, making it difficult to cut off the knotted parts in time. This affects the intake of subsequent sausages and requires manual intervention for cleaning, resulting in low continuous operation efficiency and automation of the equipment. This invention solves the problem of the knotted parts being difficult to cut off in time.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A gut-cutting device, comprising: A base on which a roller is rotatably connected; The drive mechanism connects to and drives the roller to rotate; Several intestinal cutting blades are installed on the inner wall of the roller; A toggle assembly is mounted on the base. The toggle assembly includes several levers that are staggered with the intestinal cutting blades. When the roller rotates, the levers slide across the gap between two adjacent intestinal cutting blades.

[0007] In existing sausage-cutting devices, some sausages tend to stagnate or get stuck on the blade structure during drum rotation, making it difficult to cut the knotted parts in time. This affects the entry of subsequent sausages and requires manual intervention for cleaning. The continuous operation efficiency and automation level of the equipment are low. In this solution, multiple continuous sausage segments with knots are placed into the drum. The drum is continuously rotated by the drive mechanism. The knotted parts will contact the sausage-cutting blades and be cut off. The lever continuously slides across the gap between two adjacent sausage-cutting blades, actively moving the sausages that may be stuck or stuck on the blades. This helps to adjust the sausage position and bring the knotted parts closer to the blades, ensuring that the knotted parts can be effectively fed into the cutting position and cut off in time. This solves the problem of the knotted parts being difficult to cut off in time.

[0008] Furthermore, to facilitate contact between the knotted portion and the sausage cutting tool, one feasible solution is that the sausage cutting tool includes a U-shaped blade holder, the opening of which forms a cutting groove for engaging the sausage knot. With this solution, the blade holder can more stably guide and accommodate the twisted sausage casing, allowing it to accurately engage in the cutting groove for cutting. The U-shaped structure increases the guiding surface and tolerance space, reducing the cutting failure rate caused by sausage deviation and improving the success rate and reliability of cutting.

[0009] Furthermore, this solution is not limited to the specific structure of the drive mechanism. One possible solution is that the drive mechanism includes a driven gear ring connected to the roller, a first motor is installed in the base and a drive gear is installed on the output shaft of the first motor, and the drive gear meshes with the driven gear ring. When this solution is adopted, the first motor drives the drive gear to rotate, thereby driving the driven gear ring and the roller to rotate synchronously. The gear transmission is smooth and reliable, and transmits a large torque, which is beneficial to the uniform and stable rotation of the roller.

[0010] Furthermore, to enhance the agitation and combing effect of the lever, one feasible solution is that the agitation assembly further includes a rotating shaft and the lever is connected to the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the base, and the rotation direction of the rotating shaft is opposite to that of the roller. When this solution is adopted, the agitation and combing effect of the lever is enhanced, and the stuck sausage can be more effectively moved away from the blade area.

[0011] Furthermore, to facilitate the adjustment of the relative speed between the lever and the intestinal cutting blade, one feasible solution is that the rotating shaft is connected to a gearbox and the gearbox is connected to a second motor. With this solution, the rotation speed of the rotating shaft can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual intestinal cutting effect, thereby adjusting the relative speed between the lever and the intestinal cutting blade.

[0012] Furthermore, to facilitate material discharge, one feasible solution is to install a discharge plate at an angle on the base. With this solution, the cut sausage can slide out along the discharge plate by gravity, achieving automatic material flow guidance, avoiding accumulation at the discharge port, and improving the continuity of the production process.

[0013] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. The multi-segment continuous sausage formed by twisting is placed into the roller. The roller is driven to rotate continuously by the drive mechanism. The twisted part will contact the sausage cutting blade and be cut off. The lever continuously slides through the gap between two adjacent sausage cutting blades, actively moving the sausage that may be stuck or jammed on the sausage cutting blade. This helps to adjust the position of the sausage and bring the twisted part closer to the sausage cutting blade, so that the twisted part can be effectively fed into the cutting position and then cut off in time, thus solving the problem that the twisted part is difficult to cut off in time. Second, since the sausage cutting tool includes a U-shaped blade holder, the opening of the blade holder is formed with a cutting groove for engaging the sausage knot. The blade holder can more stably guide and accommodate the twisted sausage casing, so that it can be accurately engaged in the cutting groove for cutting. The U-shaped structure increases the guiding surface and fault tolerance space, reduces the cutting failure rate caused by sausage deviation, and improves the success rate and reliability of cutting. Third, since the actuating assembly also includes a rotating shaft and the lever is connected to the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the base, and the rotation direction of the rotating shaft is opposite to that of the roller, the actuating and combing effect of the lever is enhanced, and the stuck sausage can be more effectively moved away from the knife area.

[0016] It should be noted that relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the term "comprising" or any other variations thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes the element.

[0017] The features and performance of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.

[0018] Example: Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A gut-cutting device, comprising: Base 1, with roller 2 rotatably connected to base 1; Drive mechanism 3 connects to and drives roller 2 to rotate; Several intestinal cutting blades 4 are installed on the inner wall of the roller 2; The actuating assembly 5 is mounted on the base 1. The actuating assembly 5 includes several levers 51 that are interleaved with the intestinal cutting blades 4. When the roller 2 rotates, the levers 51 slide through the gap between two adjacent intestinal cutting blades 4.

[0019] In existing sausage-cutting devices, some sausages tend to stagnate or get stuck on the blade structure during drum rotation, making it difficult to cut the knotted parts in time. This affects the entry of subsequent sausages and requires manual intervention for cleaning. The continuous operation efficiency and automation level of the equipment are low. In this solution, multiple continuous sausage segments with knots are placed into drum 2. The drum 2 is continuously rotated by drive mechanism 3. The knotted parts will contact the sausage-cutting blades 4 and be cut off. The lever 51 continuously slides through the gap between two adjacent sausage-cutting blades 4, actively moving the sausages that may be stuck or stuck on the sausage-cutting blades 4. This helps to adjust the position of the sausages and bring the knotted parts closer to the sausage-cutting blades, ensuring that the knotted parts can be effectively fed into the cutting position and cut off in time. This solves the problem of the knotted parts being difficult to cut off in time.

[0020] Reference Figure 4To facilitate contact between the twisted part and the sausage cutting tool 4, one feasible solution is that the sausage cutting tool 4 includes a U-shaped blade holder 41, and the opening of the blade holder 41 forms a cutting groove 42 for engaging the twisted sausage casing. When this solution is adopted, the blade holder 41 can more stably guide and accommodate the twisted sausage casing, allowing it to be accurately engaged in the cutting groove 42 for cutting. The U-shaped structure increases the guiding surface and fault tolerance space, reduces the cutting failure rate caused by sausage deviation, and improves the success rate and reliability of cutting.

[0021] Reference Figure 5 This solution does not limit the specific structure of the drive mechanism 3. One solution is as follows: the drive mechanism 3 includes a driven gear ring 31 connected to the roller 2, a first motor 32 is installed in the base 1 and a drive gear 33 is installed on the output shaft of the first motor 32. The drive gear 33 meshes with the driven gear ring 31. When this solution is adopted, the first motor 32 drives the drive gear 33 to rotate, thereby driving the driven gear ring 31 and the roller 2 to rotate synchronously. The gear transmission is smooth and reliable, and the torque is large, which is conducive to the uniform and stable rotation of the roller 2.

[0022] Reference Figure 2 To enhance the agitation and combing effect of the lever 51, one feasible solution is as follows: the agitation assembly also includes a rotating shaft 52 and the lever 51 is connected to the rotating shaft 52. The rotating shaft 52 is rotatably connected to the base 1. The rotation direction of the rotating shaft 52 is opposite to that of the roller 2. When this solution is adopted, the agitation and combing effect of the lever 51 is enhanced, and the stuck sausage can be more effectively moved away from the knife area.

[0023] To facilitate the adjustment of the relative speed between the lever 51 and the intestinal cutting blade 4, one feasible solution is to connect the rotating shaft 52 to the gearbox 53 and the gearbox 53 to the second motor 54. With this solution, the rotation speed of the rotating shaft 52 can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual intestinal cutting effect, thereby adjusting the relative speed between the lever 51 and the intestinal cutting blade 4.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 To facilitate material discharge, one feasible solution is to install a discharge plate 11 on the base 1 at an angle. When this solution is adopted, the cut sausage can slide out along the discharge plate 11 by gravity, realizing automatic material discharge, avoiding accumulation at the discharge port, and improving the continuity of the production process.

[0025] To facilitate the smooth discharge of the cut sausage, one feasible solution is to place the base on an inclined plane with the discharge plate 11 facing downwards. When this solution is adopted, the sausage gradually approaches the discharge plate and is discharged under the action of gravity.

[0026] The working principle of this embodiment: A continuous string of twisted sausages is fed into the roller 2 from the feed end. The first motor 32 is started, which drives the roller 2 to rotate at a constant speed. The sausages are tumbled inside the roller 2. When the twisted casing between the sausages comes into contact with the shearing groove 42, it is cut by the blade and forms an independent sausage segment. At the same time, the second motor 54 drives the rotating shaft 52 to rotate. The lever 51 slides through the gap between two adjacent sausage cutting blades 4. If the sausage or twisted part stops on the sausage cutting blade 4, the lever 51 will actively push it away and adjust its position, and then push the twisted part into the shearing groove 42 to ensure that the twisted part is cut off in time. The cut sausage continues to move with the roller 1 to the discharge end and automatically slides down to the inclined discharge plate by gravity.

[0027] To address the issue of timely cutting of knotted sections, this solution involves placing multiple continuous segments of sausage with knots inside a roller 2. The roller 2 is continuously rotated by a drive mechanism 3, causing the knotted sections to contact and be cut by the sausage-cutting blades 4. A lever 51 continuously moves across the gap between two adjacent sausage-cutting blades 4, actively agitating any sausages that may be stuck or impaled on the blades. This helps adjust the sausage's position and brings the knotted sections closer to the blades, ensuring that the knotted sections are effectively fed into the cutting position and cut off promptly, thus solving the problem of timely cutting of knotted sections.

[0028] To improve the success rate and reliability of cutting, in this solution, the sausage cutting tool 4 includes a U-shaped blade holder 41. The opening of the blade holder 41 has a cutting groove 42 for engaging the sausage knot. The blade holder 41 can more stably guide and accommodate the twisted sausage casing, allowing it to be accurately engaged in the cutting groove 42 for cutting. The U-shaped structure increases the guiding surface and tolerance space, reduces the cutting failure rate caused by sausage deviation, and improves the success rate and reliability of cutting.

[0029] To enhance the agitation and combing effect of the lever 51, in this design, the agitation assembly also includes a rotating shaft 52 and the lever 51 is connected to the rotating shaft 52. The rotating shaft 52 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and the rotation direction of the rotating shaft 52 is opposite to that of the roller 2. This enhances the agitation and combing effect of the lever 51 and can more effectively remove stuck sausages from the knife area.
