Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Field of industrial application) This invention relates to a machine for cutting the epidermis of deep-fried Inari sushi, and its purpose is to supply deep-fried Inari sushi to an automatic machine when manufacturing Inari sushi using an automatic machine. To provide a fried epidermis cutting machine for Inari sushi for pre-treatment.

(Prior art and its problems) Traditionally, Inari sushi has been manufactured by hand and has been considered to be impervious to mechanization.

The inventors have already completed and revealed an automatic machine for producing Inari sushi, which is difficult to make.

The automatic machine disclosed by this inventor is the only automatic Inari sushi manufacturing machine to date.

This automatic machine is equipped with an endless track conveyor (this conveyor has a support frame in which the fried Inari sushi is supported in the center of the fried area and hung in a bifold shape toward both ends of the fried area). ), the step of cutting only the epithelium in the center of the fried Inari sushi, and the enlargement of the cut parts on the left and right sides of the fried Inari sushi after cutting only this epithelium. a step of forming two sushi rice filling spaces for Inari sushi in one frying process, a step of filling sushi rice for Inari sushi into two sushi rice filling spaces for Inari sushi of this one frying process, and finally It consists of the process of cutting the bottom skin of one piece of fried rice to which two Inari sushi pieces are connected to make two Inari sushi pieces.

(Issues to be solved by the invention) This invention was created in order to further simplify the automatic Inari sushi manufacturing machine of this inventor, which has already been disclosed, in order to simplify the structure and downsize the automatic Inari sushi manufacturing machine. The process of cutting only the epithelium in the center of fried Inari sushi was carried out during the production of fried Inari sushi, which is the raw material.

(Means for solving the problem) This idea is based on a hollow tube with a needle-shaped tip and a ventilation hole bored at the tip, with a gap between the tubes at the top and rising upward in the direction of member feeding. A pair of tapered guide members are provided,
The tip of the rotary blade is installed in the gap of the guide material so that the direction of rotation of the rotary blade matches the axial direction of the guide material, and the cutting mechanism is connected to the compressed air delivery mechanism at the end of the hollow tube. The above-mentioned conventional problems have been solved by providing a deep-fried epithelium cutting machine for Inari sushi, which is characterized by having as an essential component.

(Embodiment of the invention) An embodiment of the invention will be described based on the drawings.

Figures 1A and B are an external view and a cross-sectional view taken along the line - of the deep-fried Inari sushi used in the deep-fried Inari sushi epithelial cutting machine according to this invention, and Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line - for Inari sushi according to an embodiment of this invention. 3A, B, C, D, and E are plane explanatory diagrams of a deep-fried epithelium cutting machine, and FIGS. 4A, B, C, and D are explanatory views of the cutting mechanism of the deep-fried epithelial cutting machine for Inari sushi according to an embodiment of this invention, viewed from a plane.

In FIGS. 1A and B, 1 indicates the fried Inari sushi used in the fried epithelial cutting machine for Inari sushi according to this invention, 1a is the epithelium of the fried 1, and 1b is the epithelium of the fried 1.
It is the lower skin of

In this invention, the epithelium 1a of the fried chicken 1 refers to the portion above the arrow A-A.

In Fig. 2, Fig. 3 A, B, C, D, E, and Fig. 4 A, B, C, D, 2 has a needle-like tip 3 and a ventilation hole at the tip. 4 is a hollow tube material with a hole. (See enlarged view) 5, 5 is a tube 2 attached to the top of the tip 3 of the hollow tube 2.
These are a pair of tapered guide members having an upward slope with respect to the member feeding direction D and spaced apart from each other by the same distance.

The guide members 5, 5 are integrally formed on the tip portion 3 of the tube member 2. (See enlarged view) Reference numeral 6 denotes a rotary blade installed in the gap between the guide members 5, 5 so that the tip thereof is aligned with the rotational direction E and the axial length direction L of the guide members 5, 5.

Reference numeral 7 denotes a distal end of the hollow tube 2, which is connected in communication with a compressed air delivery mechanism (not shown).

8 is a feed mechanism (for example, an endless track) for the lift 1; 9;
9 is an endless track for lateral positioning of the lifter 1;
0 and 10 are endless tracks for positioning the lift 1 in the height direction.

Next, the cutting mechanism of the deep-fried epithelium cutting machine for Inari sushi according to this invention will be explained in Fig. 3 A, B, C, D,
E. This will be explained with reference to FIGS. 4A, B, C, and D.

The lifting 1 is carried out in the member feeding direction D by the feeding mechanism 8.
In other words, it is sent in the direction of the rotary blade 6. See Figures 3A and 4A.

The needle-shaped tip 3 of the hollow tube 2 protrudes into the epithelium 1a of the fryer 1. Figures 3B and 4
See Figure B.

From a compressed air device (not shown) through the most advanced ventilation hole 4 of the needle-shaped tip 3 of the hollow tube 2,
Air K is inserted into the fried chicken 1, and the fried chicken 1 swells and the epithelial layer 1a and the hypodermis 1b are completely separated. See Figures 3C and 4C.

The timing and amount of air K to be inserted are mechanically or electrically controlled.

The needle-shaped tip 3 of the hollow tube material 2 enters the epithelium 1a of the fryer 1 at the position indicated by arrow A-A.

A pair of tapered guide members, in which the bisecting center line l of the epithelium 1a of the fryer 1 is inclined upward with respect to the member feeding direction D, are arranged at the same distance as the pipe member 2 above the tip 3 of the hollow pipe member 2. While being cut by the rotary blade 6 at the gap between the guide members 5 and 5, the guide members 5 and 5 are lifted up and advanced along the tapered line having an upward slope.

Due to this lifting and the effect of the hollow tube material 2, the rotary blade 6 does not come into contact with the lower skin 1b of the fryer 1.
See Figures 3D, E and 4D.

As shown in Figure 1C, the epithelium 1a of the bisector center line l
A fried piece 1 with only the chisel cut is produced and can be fed to an automatic machine.

In this way, the fried epidermis cutting machine for Inari sushi according to this invention works.

(Effects of the invention) As detailed above, the deep-fried epithelium cutting machine for Inari sushi according to this invention has a needle-like tip and a ventilation hole in the upper part of the hollow tube. A pair of tapered guide members with a gap between the tubes and an upward slope with respect to the member feeding direction are provided, and the tip of the rotary blade is inserted into the gap between the guide members so that the rotation direction of the rotary blade and the axial length direction of the guide member are aligned. This is a deep-fried epithelium cutting machine for Inari sushi, which is equipped with a cutting mechanism that is attached to the end of the hollow tube material and is connected in communication with a compressed air delivery mechanism at the end of the hollow tube. It is possible to cut the epithelium of fried Inari sushi for pre-processing to supply fried Inari sushi to the automatic machine when manufacturing it with an automatic machine, and further simplify the automatic Inari sushi manufacturing machine of this inventor, which has already been disclosed. Therefore, in order to simplify and downsize the structure of the automatic Inari sushi manufacturing machine, the process of cutting only the epithelium in the center of the fried Inari sushi can be carried out during the production of the raw material, the fried Inari sushi. .
