[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 202311552266.2, filed on November 20, 2023, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. Technical Field

[0003] The present disclosure relates to the field of food processing, and in particular to a toe clipping machine. Background Art

[0004] Chicken feet and other poultry feet are currently popular foods among consumers. In order to make it easier for consumers to eat, their nails are cut off when processing these foods.

[0005] In the related art, the toes of the claw to be cut are cut by a toe cutting machine. During the toe cutting process of the claw to be cut, the claw to be cut is placed on a die base of the toe cutting machine.

[0006] Taking chicken feet as an example, due to their unique shape, the hind toe and three front toes cannot be completely flattened and placed on the same work surface. During the toe clipping process, the claw cannot be completely flattened, and the significant difference in the shape of the claw on the die base affects the subsequent toe clipping. Furthermore, the hind toes of the left and right chicken claws are positioned differently, requiring the die base to accommodate both the left and right hind toes, making the die base structure more complex. Furthermore, after toe clipping, the chicken claw is difficult to remove from the die base, making the operation more cumbersome and inefficient.

[0007] Summary of the Invention

[0008] The present disclosure provides a toe trimming machine with good toe trimming effect, simple die base structure, high working efficiency and simple operation.

[0009] According to one aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a toe clipping machine, comprising:

[0010] A mold base having a working surface for placing a claw part to be sheared, the working surface having a receiving hole and a receiving groove, the receiving groove being configured to place the three front toes and the claw surface of the claw part to be sheared, the receiving hole passing through the bottom surface of the receiving groove, the receiving hole being configured to place the rear toe of the claw part to be sheared, and the receiving hole passing through the side surface of the mold base, the side surface being adjacent to the working surface.

[0011] According to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, when the chicken claw is placed on the mold base, the three front toes and the claw surface of the chicken claw are located in the receiving groove, and the hind toes of the chicken claw are located in the receiving hole. In this way, there is no need to flatten the entire chicken claw, and the shape of the chicken claw can be made consistent with the shape in the natural state. At the same time, the morphological differences of the chicken claws placed using the mold base are small, which can improve the subsequent toe clipping effect. The mold base provided by the present disclosure only needs to be provided with one receiving hole for placing the hind toes. Both the left and right chicken claws can be placed in the mold base, and there is no need to provide two structures for placing the hind toes. The structure of the mold base is simpler. The receiving hole runs through the side of the mold base, and the hind toes can be directly taken out of the receiving hole from the side of the mold base, which is simple to operate and more efficient.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] The following description of exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure is made in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, including various details of the embodiments of the present disclosure to facilitate understanding, which should be considered as merely exemplary. Therefore, it should be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope of the present disclosure. Similarly, for the sake of clarity and conciseness, descriptions of well-known functions and structures are omitted in the following description.

[0035] In this disclosure, unless otherwise specified, the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to describe various elements is not intended to limit the positional relationship, timing relationship, or importance relationship of these elements. Such terms are simply used to distinguish one element from another. In some examples, the first element and the second element may refer to the same instance of the element, and in some cases, based on the context of the description, they may also refer to different instances. In some examples, "connected" may include "directly connected" or "indirectly connected."

[0036] In this disclosure, the "vertical direction" is roughly parallel to the direction of gravity, and the "horizontal direction" is perpendicular to the "vertical direction." The terms used in the descriptions of the various examples described in this disclosure are for the purpose of describing specific examples only and are not intended to be limiting. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, if the number of elements is not specifically limited, the element may be one or more. In addition, the term "and / or" used in this disclosure covers any one of the listed items and all possible combinations.

[0037] In the prior art, a toe-clipping machine includes a die base. For example, when clipping chicken feet, workers place the chicken feet on the die base and then perform toe-clipping. Due to the unique shape of the chicken feet, the claws cannot be fully flattened during the clipping process, affecting the subsequent clipping effect. Furthermore, the die base structure is complex, making it difficult to remove the clipped chicken feet from the die base. This makes the operation cumbersome and inefficient.

[0038] To address the aforementioned issues, the present disclosure provides a toe trimming machine, comprising a die base. The die base has a working surface for placing a claw portion to be trimmed, the working surface having a receiving hole and a receiving groove. The receiving groove is configured to accommodate the three front toes and the claw surface of the claw portion to be trimmed, the receiving hole extends through the bottom surface of the receiving groove, the receiving hole is configured to accommodate the rear toe of the claw portion to be trimmed, and the receiving hole extends through a side surface of the die base, the side surface being adjacent to the working surface.

[0039] The toe trimming machine provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure takes chicken feet as an example. When the chicken feet are placed on the mold base, the three front toes and the claw surface of the chicken feet are located in the receiving groove, and the hind toes of the chicken feet are located in the receiving hole. In this way, there is no need to flatten the entire chicken feet, and the shape of the chicken feet can be made consistent with the shape in the natural state. At the same time, the morphological differences of the chicken feet placed using the mold base are small, which can improve the subsequent toe trimming effect. Moreover, the mold base provided by the present disclosure only needs to be provided with one receiving hole for placing the hind toes. Both the left and right chicken feet can be placed in the mold base. There is no need to provide two structures for placing the hind toes, and the structure of the mold base is simpler. Moreover, the receiving hole runs through the side of the mold base, and the hind toes can be directly taken out of the receiving hole from the side of the mold base, which is simple to operate and more efficient.

[0040] The embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0041] FIG1 shows a schematic structural diagram of a toe clipping machine according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG2 shows a front view of the toe clipping machine according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG3 shows a top view of the toe clipping machine according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG1 to FIG3 , the toe clipping machine includes a mold base 10, the mold base 10 having a working surface 101 for placing a claw portion to be clipped, the working surface 101 having a receiving hole 11 and a receiving groove 13, the receiving groove 13 being configured to place the three front toes and the claw surface of the claw portion to be clipped, the receiving hole 11 passing through the bottom surface of the receiving groove 13, the receiving hole 11 being configured to place the rear toe of the claw portion to be clipped, and the receiving hole 11 passing through the side surface 102 of the mold base 10, the side surface 102 being adjacent to the working surface 101.

[0042] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the claws to be clipped may include chicken claws and any other claws of poultry or birds. The shapes of different types of claws to be clipped are different. For different types of claws to be clipped, the shape or size of the mold base 10 can be changed so that the mold base 10 can be used to place the claws of the same type that need to be clipped. For the convenience of describing the embodiment of the present disclosure, the following explanations are all described using chicken claws as an example. It is understood that the toe clipping machine in the embodiment of the present disclosure can also be used to clip the claws of other poultry.

[0043] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the working surface 101 of the mold base 10 is used to place chicken claws to improve the stability of the chicken claws during the toe clipping process, reduce the movement of the chicken claws during the toe clipping process, and thus improve the toe clipping quality.

[0044] It should be noted that the toes of the chicken claw mentioned in the embodiment of the present disclosure are the four branches of the chicken claw, and the toenail is the plate-like structure at the front end of the toe. The toe clipper in the embodiment of the present disclosure is used to cut the toenail of the chicken claw.

[0045] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the accommodating hole 11 passes through the side of the mold base 10. It can be understood that the accommodating hole 11 is connected to the outside of the mold base 10 at the side of the accommodating hole 11. It can also be understood that the accommodating hole 11 is a through groove, so that the hind toes of the chicken claw located outside the mold base 10 can enter the accommodating hole 11 through the side of the accommodating hole 11.

[0046] For example, the receiving hole 11 may penetrate the bottom surface of the receiving groove 13 along the vertical direction G.

[0047] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a receiving groove 13 is provided to accommodate the three front toes and claw surface of the chicken claw, so that the four toes and claw surface of the chicken claw can be placed in the mold base 10 to improve the stability of the chicken claw during the toe clipping process.

[0048] Because the position of the hind toes differs between left and right chicken claws, the prior art requires five positioning positions on the mold base to accommodate both left and right chicken claws, making the mold base structure more complex. Furthermore, workers must choose the placement of the claws based on the left and right claws, which increases toe clipping time and reduces work efficiency.

[0049] The toe trimming machine provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is such that when the chicken claw is placed on the mold base 10, the three front toes and the claw surface of the chicken claw are located in the receiving groove 13, and the hind toes of the chicken claw are located in the receiving hole 11. This eliminates the need to flatten the entire chicken claw, and allows the shape of the chicken claw to be consistent with its natural shape. At the same time, the differences in the shapes of the chicken claws placed using the mold base 10 are small, which can improve the subsequent toe trimming effect. The mold base 10 provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure only needs to be provided with one receiving hole 11 for placing the hind toes. Both the left and right chicken claws can be placed in the mold base, and there is no need to provide two structures for placing the hind toes. The structure of the mold base 10 is simpler. The receiving hole 11 passes through the side surface 102 of the mold base 10, and the hind toes can be directly taken out of the receiving hole 11 from the side surface 102 of the mold base 10, which is simple to operate and more efficient.

[0050] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, since the left and right chicken claws are placed in the same manner, there is no need to select the placement position of the chicken claws, which reduces the time for trimming the toes and improves work efficiency.

[0051] Exemplarily, the shape of the receiving groove 13 is the same as the shape of the three front toes of the chicken claw after being flattened, so that the three front toes of the chicken claw can be separated for toe clipping.

[0052] FIG4 shows a schematic structural diagram of a toe clipping machine according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG1 to FIG4 , the toe clipping machine further includes a locking mechanism 20 , which includes a driving member 21 and a locking member 22 .

[0053] FIG5 shows a schematic structural diagram of a toe clipping machine according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure from another perspective. FIG6 shows a top view of a toe clipping machine according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG7 shows a front view of a toe clipping machine according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG5 to FIG7 , a driving member 21 is connected to a locking member 22. In conjunction with FIG1 to FIG7 , the driving member 21 is configured to drive the locking member 22 to move against the rear toe of the claw to be clipped so that the claw to be clipped is fixed in the accommodating hole 11, or to push the rear toe of the claw to be clipped so that the claw to be clipped is detached from the side 102 of the mold base 10.

[0054] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the driving member 21 may include a motor.

[0055] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the locking member 22 may move to the bottom or top of the accommodating hole 11 during the movement process, and may also move out from the bottom or top of the mold base 10 .

[0056] Exemplarily, the locking member 22 moves below or above the receiving hole 11 so that the hind toes of the chicken claw can be fixed in the receiving hole 11 , and the locking member 22 is moved out of the mold base 10 , and the chicken claw is detached from the mold base 10 .

[0057] In the related art, after the toes of the chicken feet are trimmed, the staff removes the trimmed chicken feet from the mold base. During the entire toe trimming process of the chicken feet, the work is relatively complicated and the work efficiency is low.

[0058] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, after the hind toes of the chicken claw are placed in the locking member 22, the driving member 21 drives the locking member 22 to move to push the hind toes of the chicken claw, so that the hind toes of the chicken claw are fixed in the accommodating hole 11 of the mold base 10 for subsequent toe clipping. After the toe clipping is completed, the driving member 21 drives the locking member 22 to move to push the hind toes of the chicken claw, so that the chicken claw can be detached from the side 102 of the mold base 10. There is no need for the staff to remove the chicken claw from the mold base 10, which is simple to work and efficient.

[0059] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the output shaft 211 of the driving member 21 is connected to the locking member 22. When the toe trimmer is used normally, the output shaft 211 of the driving member 21 extends along the vertical direction G, and the center axis of the accommodating hole 11 also extends along the vertical direction G. Then the moving direction of the locking member 22 is roughly parallel to the horizontal plane, wherein the horizontal plane is perpendicular to the vertical direction G, and the moving direction of the locking member 22 is the direction of the moving speed of the locking member 22 at any time.

[0060] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the driving member 21 is configured to drive the locking member 22 to rotate, and the rotation axis of the locking member 22 intersects with the working surface 101 .

[0061] For example, the locking member 22 may be a rotating piece. The rotating piece is thin so that the rotating piece can be rotated to the bottom or top of the receiving hole 11 without taking up too much space of the mold base 10, which is conducive to the miniaturization design of the toe trimming machine.

[0062] 4 to 7 , the toe clipping machine further comprises a toe clipping mechanism 30, which is configured to clip the toe of the claw to be clipped placed on the die base 10. The toe clipping mechanism 30 clips the toe of the chicken claw, making the function of the entire toe clipping machine more complete.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the locking mechanism 20 further includes a first detection device configured to detect whether there is a rear toe to be trimmed in the claw portion of the locking member 22, and the driving member 21 is configured to drive the locking member 22 to move based on the detection result of the first detection device. The first detection device is located inside the toe trimmer and is not shown in the drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0064] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a first detection device is used to detect whether there is a hind toe of the claw to be trimmed in the locking member 22, and the driving member 21 can drive the locking member 22 to move based on the detection result of the first detection device, thereby eliminating the need for manual operation of the driving member 21, making it more convenient and quick, and increasing work efficiency.

[0065] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the locking member 22 is located on the other side of the mold base 10 opposite to the side where the working surface 101 is located. That is, when the toe trimmer is operating normally, the locking member 22 can move below the receiving hole 11 or move out from below the mold base 10 during movement, thereby reducing the impact of the locking member 22 on the working surface 101 of the mold base 10 during movement.

[0066] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the locking member 22 has a placement slot 221 , which is configured to correspond to the position of the accommodating hole 11 so that the rear toe portion of the claw to be trimmed can be located in the placement slot 221 .

[0067] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when toe clipping is not in progress, the placement slot 221 is offset from the receiving hole 11, allowing the hind toe of the chicken claw to be placed in the placement slot 221. When toe clipping is in progress, the placement slot 221 is connected to the receiving hole 11, allowing the hind toe of the chicken claw to be fixed in the receiving hole 11.

[0068] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the placement slot 221 passes through two opposite surfaces of the locking member 22, and the opening of the placement slot 221 passes through one side surface of the locking member 22, so that the hind toes of the chicken claw can be placed in the placement slot 221. When the locking member 22 is removed from the mold base 10 to remove the chicken claw from the mold base 10, the chicken claw can be directly removed from the opening of the placement slot 221. For example, the chicken claw can be directly removed from the opening of the placement slot 221 and placed in the storage device, which is more convenient.

[0069] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the hind toes of the chicken claw are placed in the placement groove 221, the chicken claw will generate pressure on the locking piece 22. The first detection device can determine whether there is the hind toes of the chicken claw in the placement groove 221 by detecting the force condition of the locking piece 22.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, Figure 8 shows a schematic structural diagram of a locking mechanism according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 9 shows a front view of a locking mechanism according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 10 shows a top view of a locking mechanism according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to Figures 8 to 10, the locking mechanism 20 further includes a blocking member 23 provided on the locking member 22. In conjunction with Figures 4 and 6, the blocking member 23 is located on the side of the placement groove 221 close to the accommodating hole 11. Referring to Figures 4 to 7, the mold base 10 also has a sliding channel 12, one end of the sliding channel 12 is connected to the accommodating hole 11, and the other end of the sliding channel 12 passes through the mold base 10. When the driving member 21 drives the locking member 22 to move, at least a portion of the blocking member 23 is located in the sliding channel 12 and slides along the sliding channel 12.

[0071] Exemplarily, the sliding track defined by the sliding channel 12 is substantially perpendicular to the central axis of the accommodating hole 11 .

[0072] For example, the blocking member 23 may include a blocking rod, one end of which is connected to the locking member 22 , and the other end of which is directed upwards along the vertical direction G toward the locking member 22 .

[0073] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the blocking member 23 is closer to the sliding channel 12 of the mold base 10 than the through groove 221 .

[0074] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, by providing a blocking member 23, when the driving member 21 drives the locking member 22 to move to push the hind toe of the chicken claw to disengage the chicken claw from the mold base 10, the blocking member 23 can push the chicken claw to move, making it easier for the chicken claw to follow the movement of the locking member 22, thereby more conveniently disengaging the chicken claw from the mold base 10. At the same time, in order to prevent the blocking member 23 from abutting against the mold base 10 and affecting the movement of the locking member 22 toward the inside of the mold base 10, a sliding channel 12 is provided in the mold base 10. The blocking member 23 can enter the receiving hole 11 from the side of the receiving hole 11, and then enter the sliding channel 12 from the receiving hole 11. When the driving member 21 drives the locking member 22 to move, the blocking member 23 slides along the sliding channel 12 to avoid affecting the movement of the locking member 22.

[0075] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when toe clipping is not performed, the blocking member 23 is located outside the mold base 10 so that the toes of the chicken claw can contact the blocking member 23. For example, the position of the blocking member 23 on the locking member 22 can be set as needed, so that when the chicken claw is placed on the mold base 10, the blocking member 23 is located between two adjacent front toes of the chicken claw. This allows the chicken claw to be placed on the mold base 10 and the rear toes of the chicken claw to be placed in the placement groove 221. At the same time, the adjacent two front toes of the three front toes of the chicken claw are connected, and the blocking member 23 can push the connection of the chicken claw, thereby more conveniently separating the chicken claw from the mold base 10.

[0076] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first detection device is located inside the blocking member 23 .

[0077] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the chicken claw is placed on the locking member 22, the blocking member 23 is located between two adjacent front toes of the three front toes of the chicken claw. At this time, the staff gives the chicken claw a push, which can make the connection of the chicken claw give the blocking member 23 a push, so that the first detection device located in the blocking member 23 feels the force, and controls the movement of the locking member 22 through the driving member 21, so that the chicken claw is fixed on the mold base 10.

[0078] Referring to Figure 5, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the locking mechanism 20 also includes a limit member 24, one end of the limit member 24 is connected to the free end of the blocking member 23, and the other end of the limit member 24 is facing the placement slot 221, and the extension direction of the limit member 24 intersects with the extension direction of the blocking member 23.

[0079] Exemplarily, the limiting member 24 may include a limiting rod, one end of which is connected to the blocking member 23 , and the other end of which is a free end.

[0080] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the toe clipping is completed and the locking member 22 moves outward, the limiting member 24 will also apply downward pressure to the chicken claw, so that the chicken claw can enter the storage device located below, which is more convenient.

[0081] Exemplarily, the extending direction of the limiting rod is perpendicular to the extending direction of the blocking rod.

[0082] 1 to 4 , in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the locking mechanism 20 further includes a first baffle 25, which covers the locking member 22. The first baffle 25 can be used to shield and protect the locking member 22. For example, the first baffle 25 can be provided on both sides of the locking mechanism 20.

[0083] 8 to 10 , in some embodiments of the present disclosure, a placement slot 221 is located on the locking member 22, and a blocking member 23 is also connected to the locking member 22. The placement slot 221 and the blocking member 23 on the locking member 22 can be driven to move by the same driving member 21, making the structure of the locking mechanism 20 simpler.

[0084] FIG11 is a partial structural diagram of a toe trimmer according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure in another state. Referring to FIG1, FIG2, and FIG11, in other embodiments of the present disclosure, a locking mechanism 20 includes a connecting member 26 and a blocking member 23 connected to the connecting member 26. The blocking member 23 is located on a side of the placement slot 221 adjacent to the receiving hole 11. A driving member 21 is connected to the connecting member 26 and is configured to drive the connecting member 26 to move so that the blocking member 23 can be located within and slide along the sliding channel 12.

[0085] Exemplarily, the locking member 22 and the connecting member 26 can be driven to move by a driving member 21, or the locking mechanism 20 can include two driving members 21, one of the two driving members 21 is connected to the locking member 22, and the other of the two driving members 21 is connected to the connecting member 26.

[0086] During the locking process, the driving member 21 drives the locking member 22 to move, so as to press against the hind toe of the chicken claw so that the hind toe of the chicken claw is fixed in the receiving hole 11. At the same time, the chicken claw also pushes the connecting member 26 to move, so that the limiting member 24 connected to the connecting member 26 slides along the sliding channel 12, thereby avoiding affecting the movement of the chicken claw. After the toe clipping is completed, the driving member 21 drives the connecting member 26 to move, so that the limiting member 24 on the connecting member 26 pushes the chicken claw to disengage from the side surface 102 of the mold base 10. At the same time, the chicken claw also pushes the locking member 22 to move, thereby avoiding affecting the movement of the chicken claw.

[0087] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the locking member 22 and the limiting member 24 are provided separately, so that the locking member 22 and the limiting member 24 can be driven separately without affecting each other, which is more convenient.

[0088] 1 and 11 , in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the receiving groove 13 includes three sub-receiving grooves 131 corresponding one-to-one to the three front toes, and the other end of the sliding channel 12 is located between any two adjacent sub-receiving grooves 131 .

[0089] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the other end of the sliding channel 12 is arranged between any two adjacent sub-accommodating grooves 131 without changing the shape of the mold base 10 .

[0090] Figure 12 shows a schematic structural diagram of a toe clipping machine according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 13 shows a schematic structural diagram of a toe clipping machine according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure from another perspective. Figure 14 shows a front view of a toe clipping machine according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 15 shows a left view of a toe clipping machine according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 16 shows a top view of a toe clipping machine according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to Figures 12 to 16, the toe clipping machine further includes a positioning mechanism 40. The positioning mechanism 40 is configured to fix the chicken feet to the mold base 10.

[0091] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the toe clipping mechanism 30 may provide a thrust to the chicken claw during the toe clipping process, and the positioning mechanism 40 provides pressure to the chicken claw located on the mold base 10 to achieve the positioning of the chicken claw and fix the chicken claw on the mold base 10. When the toe clipping mechanism 30 provides a thrust to the chicken claw, the chicken claw will not move, so that the toe clipping work can be carried out smoothly.

[0092] Exemplarily, the positioning mechanism 40 can be used to fix the chicken feet in the receiving groove 13 of the mold base 10.

[0093] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when toe clipping is not performed, the mold base 10 and the positioning mechanism 40 are staggered, so that the receiving groove 13 on the mold base 10 is not blocked and the chicken claw can move to the receiving groove 13. In addition, when toe clipping is not performed, there is a certain distance between the mold base 10 and the toe clipping mechanism 30, which is convenient for placing the chicken claw and reduces the possibility of the toe clipping mechanism 30 scratching the staff. When toe clipping is not performed, the relative position of the mold base 10 and the positioning mechanism 40 is fixed. In this way, when the positioning mechanism 40 positions the chicken claw placed on the mold base 10, the positioning mechanism 40 and the mold base 10 can be close to each other, and there is no need to adjust the position of the mold base 10 and the positioning mechanism 40 according to the placement position of the chicken claw. For example, the positioning mechanism 40 and the mold base 10 can be close to each other so that the positioning mechanism 40 moves toward the mold base 10, or it can drive the mold base 10 to move toward the positioning mechanism 40, or it can drive the positioning mechanism 40 and the mold base 10 to move toward each other.

[0094] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the positioning mechanism 40 is configured to apply pressure to the chicken feet placed on the mold base 10 to fix and flatten the chicken feet.

[0095] Chicken claws are not always flat in their natural state and have a certain curvature. In the disclosed embodiment, applying pressure to the claws can both secure and flatten the claws. The flattened claws have a larger contact area with the positioning mechanism 40, resulting in a better securing effect. Furthermore, the flattened claws have less morphological variation, and the orientations of the toes are generally the same. This makes it easier for the toe clipping mechanism 30 to contact the nails when moving in a predetermined direction, thereby reducing toe clipping time and improving toe clipping efficiency.

[0096] At the same time, after the chicken claws are flattened, the morphological differences of the chicken claws are reduced, so the error of the toe clipping mechanism 30 when clipping the chicken claws will be smaller, thereby improving the toe clipping effect.

[0097] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, referring to Figures 12 to 16, the positioning mechanism 40 includes a toe positioning assembly 41, which includes a plurality of stacked pressing plates 411, which are configured to apply pressure to the toes of the chicken claw to fix and flatten the toes.

[0098] Exemplarily, the plurality of pressing sheets 411 are all arranged along the vertical direction G.

[0099] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the toe positioning assembly 41 is used to position the toes of the chicken claw. The toes of the chicken claw also have a certain curvature. Flattening the toes of the chicken claw makes it easier to fix the chicken claw. Since the toes of the chicken claw are of different lengths, the length of the chicken claw positioned by the toe positioning assembly 41 can be adjusted by changing the amount of pressure plate 411 pressed on the chicken claw, so that the toe positioning assembly 41 can be adapted to different chicken claws.

[0100] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of pressing tablets 411 can be set according to demand. For example, the number of pressing tablets 411 is greater than or equal to 5 and less than or equal to 15.

[0101] In other embodiments of the present disclosure, the positioning mechanism 40 may include a positioning block, which can apply pressure to the chicken claws to flatten and fix the chicken claws.

[0102] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, FIG17 shows a schematic structural diagram of a pressing sheet according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG17 , a side of the pressing sheet 411 near the mold base 10 (not shown in FIG17 ) has a positioning portion 4111. The positioning portion 4111 is configured to correspond to the position of the chicken claw's toe when the pressing sheet 411 applies pressure to the chicken claw's toe, thereby securing the toe within the positioning portion 4111.

[0103] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a positioning portion 4111 is provided on the pressing sheet 411 so that the toes of the chicken claw can be fixed in the positioning portion 4111 , further improving the positioning effect of the toe positioning component 41 on the toes of the chicken claw.

[0104] Exemplarily, the positioning portion 4111 may include a positioning notch on the pressing sheet 411 .

[0105] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the positioning mechanism 40 includes a plurality of toe positioning components 41 corresponding one-to-one to the plurality of toes of the chicken claw, and each toe positioning component 41 is configured to apply pressure to the corresponding toe through a plurality of pressing plates 411 .

[0106] In the disclosed embodiment, the multiple toes of the chicken claw are positioned using corresponding toe positioning components 41, and each toe is positioned separately without affecting each other, making it more convenient to drive.

[0107] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the plurality of pressing pieces 411 are configured to apply pressure to the toes of the chicken claw under the action of its own weight.

[0108] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the pressing sheet 411 is pressed on the toes of the chicken claw under the action of its own gravity, and no additional pressure device is required, which is more convenient.

[0109] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, referring to Figures 12 and 14, the toe positioning assembly 41 includes a support member 412, a plurality of pressing plates 411 having through holes 4112, the support member 412 passes through the through holes 4112 of the plurality of pressing plates 411, and the plurality of pressing plates 411 are provided on the support member 412.

[0110] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the support member 412 can be driven to move in a direction away from or toward the chicken claw, so that the pressing plate 411 provided on the support member 412 can be moved in a direction away from or toward the chicken claw. When the pressing plate 411 moves in a direction away from the chicken claw, the toe positioning assembly 41 releases the positioning of the toes; when the pressing plate 411 moves in a direction toward the chicken claw, the pressing plate 411 presses on the toes of the chicken claw, thereby achieving the positioning of the toes by the toe positioning assembly 41.

[0111] For example, the support member 412 may include a support rod.

[0112] Since the plurality of pressing sheets 411 are provided on the support member 412, the pressing sheets 411 can be pressed on the toes of the chicken claw under the action of their own weight by setting the support member 412 in an appropriate position, without the need for an additional pressure device, which is more convenient. At the same time, the support member 412 passes through the through holes 4112 of the plurality of pressing sheets 411, so that the pressing sheets 411 will not fall over.

[0113] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the toe clipping mechanism 30 includes a second detection device (not shown) and a toe clipping knife 31. The toe clipping knife 31 is configured to move toward the nail of a chicken claw fixed to the mold base 10. The second detection device is configured to detect the resistance encountered by the toe clipping knife 31 during movement. The toe clipping knife 31 is also configured to clip the chicken claw based on the resistance encountered during movement. The second detection device is not shown in the drawings of the present disclosure.

[0114] When using the toe clipping machine provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, after the chicken claw moves to the mold base 10, the positioning mechanism 40 fixes the chicken claw. After the chicken claw is fixed, the toe clipper 31 moves toward the toenail of the chicken claw fixed to the mold base 10. The toenail of the chicken claw is facing the toe clipper 31. During the movement of the toe clipper 31, the toe clipper 31 will contact the toenail of the chicken claw, causing the toe clipper 31 to be subjected to resistance during the movement. As the resistance to the toe clipper 31 increases, it indicates that the overlap between the toe clipper 31 and the toenail of the chicken claw increases. When the resistance to the toe clipper 31 reaches a preset value, it indicates that the overlap between the toe clipper 31 and the toenail of the chicken claw is sufficient, and the toe clipper can be used to clip the chicken claw. For small chicken claws, the distance the toe clipper 31 moves will increase, and for large chicken claws, the distance the toe clipper 31 moves will decrease. The toe clipper provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure clips the chicken claws according to the resistance encountered during the movement. That is, for different chicken claws, the toe clipper 31 can move different distances according to the shape or size of the chicken claws until the toe clipper 31 overlaps enough with the chicken claw's nails before clipping the toes, thereby reducing the problem of insufficient or excessive toe clipping, thereby enabling the toe clipping machine to better adapt to chicken claws of different sizes and shapes, and improving the quality of toe clipping.

[0115] Figure 18 shows a schematic diagram of a pressing plate and support member according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to Figure 18 , according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the length L of the through-holes 4112 on the multiple pressing plates 411 increases as the toe-clipping mechanism 30 moves toward the nail of a chicken claw fixed to the die base 10. For example, the length of the through-holes 4112 is parallel to the vertical direction G. The pressing plates and support member shown in Figure 18 are for illustrative purposes only.

[0116] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the direction X in which the toe clippers 31 move toward the toenails of the chicken claw fixed to the chicken claw mold base 10 can be understood as the direction in which the toe clippers 31 move from away from the chicken claw to closer to the chicken claw. When different toe clippers 31 are used to clip different toenails of the chicken claw, their movement directions X are different. In conjunction with Figures 6 and 16, three toe clippers 31 (not shown in Figures 6 and 16) are used to clip the toenails of the three toes of the chicken claw, respectively, and the movement directions X of the three toe clippers 31 are different.

[0117] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, during the toe clipping process, the toe clipper 31 moves toward the nail of the chicken claw fixed to the chicken claw mold base 10. At this time, the pressing plate 411 presses on the toe of the chicken claw to enable the toe clipper 31 to contact the toe of the chicken claw and cut the nail on the toe, thereby preventing the pressing plate 411 from affecting the movement of the toe clipper 31. At this time, the support member 412 moves in a direction away from the chicken claw, and the support member 412 drives the pressing plate 411 to move in a direction away from the chicken claw. Since the lengths L of the through holes 4112 on the pressing plates 411 increase in the direction X in which the toe clipper 31 moves toward the nail of the chicken claw fixed to the chicken claw mold base 10, the pressing plate 411 facing the toe clipper 31 moves first in a direction away from the chicken claw. This not only prevents the pressing plate 411 from affecting the movement of the toe clipper 31, but also some of the pressing plate 411 presses on the toe of the chicken claw to fix the chicken claw, thereby preventing the toe clipper 31 from pushing the chicken claw to move. As the toe clipper 31 continues to move toward the chicken claw, the support member 412 continues to drive the pressing plate 411 to move away from the chicken claw, so that in the direction X in which the toe clipper 31 moves toward the nail of the chicken claw fixed to the chicken claw mold base 10, the multiple pressing plates 411 move in sequence away from the chicken claw until the toe clipper 31 contacts the nail. After the toe clipping is completed, the multiple pressing plates 411 are released from the positioning of the toes, allowing the clipped chicken claw to be detached from the mold base 10.

[0118] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the support member 412 is also configured to move in a direction away from the working surface 101 of the mold base 10 in response to the distance between the toe clipper 31 and the pressing plate 411 being less than a preset distance value, so as to drive the pressing plate 411 among the multiple pressing plates 411 whose distance from the toe clipper 31 is less than the preset distance value to move, thereby releasing the pressure on the toes to be clipped.

[0119] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the distance between the toe clipper 31 and the pressing plate 411 is less than a preset distance value, indicating that the toe clipper 31 is about to contact the pressing plate 411, the pressing plate 411 can be lifted to prevent the pressing plate 411 from affecting the movement of the toe clipper 31. By controlling the support member 412 to move toward the side away from the mold base 10, multiple pressing plates 411 are lifted in sequence, and the toe clipper 31 can continue to move forward until the toe clipper 31 contacts the chicken claw's nail, allowing the toe clipper 31 to clip the chicken claw more accurately.

[0120] For example, when the toe clipping machine is not clipping toes, the distance between the toe clipping knife 31 and the pressing plate 411 is certain. The total distance moved by the toe clipping knife 31 can be determined based on the speed and time of the movement of the toe clipping knife 31, and then the distance between the toe clipping knife 31 and the pressing plate 411 during the movement can be determined.

[0121] For example, the moving speeds of the toe clipper 31 and the support 412 can be controlled so that the toe clipper 31 does not contact the pressing sheet 411 during the process of the toe clipper 31 moving toward the nail of the chicken claw.

[0122] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the toe clipping machine further comprises a first motor, which drives the support member 412 to move, thereby driving the pressing plate 411 to move. The first motor is located inside the toe clipping machine (not shown).

[0123] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the support members 412 corresponding to the two toes on the left and right sides of the three front toes of the chicken claw can be driven by the same first motor, the support members 412 corresponding to the middle toe of the three front toes of the chicken claw can be driven by another first motor, or the three support members 412 are driven separately using different first motors.

[0124] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the positioning mechanism 40 also includes a claw surface positioning assembly 42, which includes a driving unit 421 and a pressure piece 422. The driving unit 421 is configured to drive the pressure piece 422 to apply pressure to the chicken claw placed on the chicken claw mold base 10 to fix the chicken claw on the chicken claw mold base 10, and the pressure piece 422 corresponds to the claw surface position of the chicken claw.

[0125] For example, the pressure applying member 422 may include a pressure plate.

[0126] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a claw surface positioning component 42 is provided to position the claw surface of the chicken claw, and at the same time, the claw surface of the chicken claw can be flattened, making the chicken claw flatter, increasing the contact area between the chicken claw and the mold base 10, and increasing the fixing effect of the chicken claw. At the same time, the difference in the shape of the chicken claw after flattening is smaller, which can further improve the toe clipping effect.

[0127] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the toe clipping mechanism 30 further includes a slider and a guide rail. A toe clipper 31 for clipping the nails of the three front toes of the chicken's paw can be fixed to the slider. The slider is slidably connected to the guide rail. A second motor drives the slider to move on the guide rail, thereby driving the toe clipper 31 to move. The toe clipper 31 for clipping the nails of the chicken's hind toes can be driven by a cylinder.

[0128] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, different toe clippers 31 may be driven by corresponding second motors, respectively.

[0129] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the toe cutting knife 31 corresponding to the hind toes of the chicken claw is driven by a cylinder or a motor.

[0130] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a toe clipper 31 is used to clip the nails of the three front toes of a chicken paw. The second detection device can determine the change in resistance encountered by the toe clipper 31 during movement by detecting the voltage value or current value of the second motor.

[0131] For example, taking the current value as an example, when the toe clipper 31 is not in contact with the chicken claw, the current value of the driving member is certain. When the toe clipper 31 is in contact with the chicken claw, the resistance encountered by the toe clipper 31 during movement will become greater, and the current value of the driving member will also increase. The change in resistance encountered by the toe clipper 31 during movement can be determined based on the change in the current value of the driving member. When the current value of the driving member increases to the preset current value, it indicates that the toe clipper 31 is in sufficient contact with the chicken claw.

[0132] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, for a toe clipper 31 used to clip the nails of the hind toes of a chicken paw, the second detection device can determine the change in resistance encountered by the toe clipper 31 during movement by detecting the pneumatic pressure of the cylinder.

[0133] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the moving direction V of the toe clipper 31 toward the nail of the chicken claw fixed to the mold base is parallel to the working surface. FIG19 shows a front view of the toe clipper according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG19 , the toe clipper 31 includes a toe clipper body 311 and a blade 312 located at the front end of the toe clipper body 311. The toe clipper body 311 can be fixed to a slider. The angle between the extension direction U of the blade 312 of the toe clipper 31 and the moving direction V of the toe clipper 31 toward the nail of the chicken claw fixed to the mold base 10 is an acute angle, and the blade 312 of the toe clipper 31 is inclined toward the side of the mold base 10 where the chicken claw is placed.

[0134] The nail of a chicken's claw is located on the upper side of the toe. During the process of clipping the chicken's claw, the desired effect is to cut the nail while cutting as little chicken's claw meat as possible. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the blade 312 of the toe clipper 31 is made into an inclined blade, and the blade 312 is inclined toward the side of the mold base 10 where the chicken's claw is placed. This allows the blade 312 of the toe clipper 31 to match the nail of the chicken's claw and to grip the nail of the chicken's claw. This allows the nail of the chicken's claw to be cut without cutting off too much chicken's claw meat, which would be wasted.

[0135] During the toe clipping process, the mold base 10 and the positioning mechanism 40 can be close to each other so that the positioning mechanism 40 can press on the chicken claw located on the mold base 10 to position the chicken claw. After the toe clipping is completed, the mold base 10 and the positioning mechanism 40 need to move away from each other to facilitate the removal of the chicken claw.

[0136] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, during the toe clipping process, the three front toes of the chicken claw can be fixed by the positioning mechanism 40, and the back toes of the chicken claw can be fixed by the receiving hole 11.

[0137] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, with reference to FIG. 12 and FIG. 15 , the toe clipping machine may further include a second baffle 50 , which is used to block the flying toenails during the toe clipping process.

[0138] Exemplarily, in conjunction with FIG. 12 and FIG. 16 , the toe clipping machine may further include a protective cover 60 , and the positioning mechanism 40 , the toe clipping mechanism 30 , the first motor and the second motor are all housed in the protective cover 60 to protect them.

[0139] 13 , 15 and 16 , the plug 70 of the toe clipping machine may be provided at the rear side of the toe clipping machine.
