Detailed Implementation

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0019] To address the technical problem of manually separating lobster heads and tails after the initial separation, this invention provides a lobster head and tail separation workbench. The separated lobster heads and tails fall into different areas, eliminating the need for manual sorting.

[0020] It should be noted that the lobster head and tail separation workbench of this utility model is used for, but not limited to, crayfish processing. For ease of explanation, this utility model only uses the application of the lobster head and tail separation workbench to crayfish processing as an example. The principle of the lobster head and tail separation workbench applied to other types of workbenches is essentially the same as that applied to crayfish processing, and will not be elaborated here.

[0021] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the lobster head and tail separation workbench in one embodiment of the present invention. The lobster head and tail separation workbench includes a base 100, a positioning seat 200, and two sets of clamping components 300. The base 100 has an installation position, and the base 100 has a first discharge port 110 and a second discharge port 120 at both ends of the installation position. The positioning seat 200 is installed at the installation position and is used to place the lobster. The two sets of clamping components 300 are respectively located at both ends of the installation position. The clamping components 300 include clamping members 310 and adjusting members 320. The two clamping members 310 are used to clamp the head or tail of the lobster. One end of the adjusting member 320 is installed on the base 100, and the other end is connected to the clamping member 310 to drive the clamping member 310 to move relative to the positioning seat 200 to drag the head and tail of the lobster to separate. The two clamping members 310 release the head and tail of the lobster at the first discharge port 110 and the second discharge port 120, respectively.

[0022] In this embodiment, the lobster to be processed is first placed in the positioning seat 200. Then, the two adjusting members 320 are adjusted so that the two clamping members 310 approach and clamp the head and tail of the lobster. Next, the two adjusting members 320 are adjusted again so that the two clamping members 310 move away from each other, thereby pulling the lobster's head and tail apart. Then, the two clamping members 310 release the lobster's head and tail respectively, and the separated lobster head and tail fall into the first discharge port 110 and the second discharge port 120, thus eliminating the need for manual sorting of the lobster's head and tail.

[0023] In some embodiments, the positioning seat 200 has a placement groove 210, with both ends of the placement groove 210 facing the first discharge port 110 and the second discharge port 120, respectively. The placement groove 210 is used to position the lobster to facilitate the subsequent separation of the lobster's head and tail.

[0024] In some embodiments, the positioning base 200 has a pick-and-place slot 220, which extends laterally through the placement slot 210. The pick-and-place slot 220 corresponds to the clamping member 310. When the clamping member 310 clamps the lobster and places it into the pick-and-place slot 220, the clamping member 310 is partially embedded in the pick-and-place slot 220, allowing the lobster to be smoothly placed into the placement slot 210.

[0025] In some embodiments, there are multiple installation locations, and the positioning base 200 can be detachably installed at any one of the installation locations.

[0026] In some embodiments, the adjusting member 320 includes a lifting seat 321, a lifting drive unit 322, and a translation drive unit 323. The lifting seat 321 is slidably disposed on the base 100 in a vertical direction. The lifting drive unit 322 is driven by the lifting seat 321 to move the lifting seat 321 relative to the base 100. The clamping member 310 is slidably disposed on the lifting seat 321 in a horizontal direction. The translation drive unit 323 is driven by the clamping member 310 to move relative to the lifting seat 321. By using the lifting drive unit 322 to move the lifting seat 321, the height of the lifting seat 321 can be adjusted. The clamping member 310 is slidably disposed on the lifting seat 321, allowing it to slide horizontally along the lifting seat 321. Under the combined action of the translation drive unit 323 and the lifting drive unit 322, the clamping member 310 can move in a vertical plane, thereby aligning the clamping member 310 with the head or tail of the lobster.

[0027] In some embodiments, the base 100 has a plurality of guide holes 130, and the lifting seat 321 has a plurality of guide rods 3211, which are movably inserted through the plurality of guide holes 130 in a corresponding manner. The guide holes 130 can guide the guide rods 3211, thereby allowing the lifting seat 321 to slide relative to the base 100.

[0028] Based on the above embodiments, in some embodiments, the lifting drive unit 322 includes a lifting cylinder, the cylinder body of the lifting cylinder is mounted on the base 100, the piston rod of the lifting cylinder is connected to the lifting seat 321, and the piston rod of the lifting cylinder moves relative to the cylinder body of the lifting cylinder, thereby pushing the lifting seat 321 to move.

[0029] In some embodiments, the clamping member 310 has a threaded hole (not shown in the figure), and the translation drive unit 323 includes a motor 3231 and a lead screw 3232. The lead screw 3232 is rotatably mounted on the lifting base 321, and the lead screw 3232 is screwed to the threaded hole (not shown in the figure). The motor 3231 drives the lead screw 3232 to rotate. Since the lead screw 3232 and the threaded hole (not shown in the figure) are screwed together, the rotating lead screw 3232 can push the clamping member 310 to move relative to the lifting base 321.

[0030] Any implementation of the clamping component 310 that can hold the head and tail of the lobster is feasible. In some embodiments, the clamping component 310 includes a gripper cylinder. The gripper cylinder is a standard part, and those skilled in the art can select a gripper cylinder of appropriate specifications according to actual needs.

[0031] In some embodiments, the base 100 has a first guide cone surrounding a first discharge port 110 and a second guide cone surrounding a second discharge port 120. The first and second guide cones serve a guiding function to facilitate the lobster head and lobster tail entering the first discharge port 110 and the second discharge port 120, respectively.

[0032] To better understand this utility model, the following is combined with... Figures 1 to 3 The technical solution of this utility model is described in detail below: First, the lobsters to be processed are placed in the placement slot 210. Then, the two adjusting components 320 are adjusted so that the two clamping components 310 approach and clamp the head and tail of the lobster. Next, the two adjusting components 320 are adjusted again so that the two clamping components 310 move away from each other, thereby pulling the lobster's head and tail apart. Then, the two clamping components 310 release the lobster's head and tail respectively. The first and second guide cones act as guides, allowing the lobster head and tail to enter the first discharge port 110 and the second discharge port 120 respectively. The separated lobster head and tail then fall into the first discharge port 110 and the second discharge port 120 respectively, thus eliminating the need for manual sorting of the lobster's head and tail.
