Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a machine for cutting long foods such as radish and cucumber, particularly radish and the like. More specifically, the present invention relates to a needle insertion and slicing machine for daikon radish and the like that can continuously and automatically perform the steps of needle insertion and cutting of radish and the like for pickles.

[Prior art]

When producing large quantities of pickles such as daikon radish, it is necessary to shorten the pickling time from a cost perspective and to sufficiently soak the flavoring liquid into the pickles. During the pickling process, needle insertion is performed by making numerous small holes in the radish before pickling, so that the flavor liquid penetrates from the surface to the inside of the radish. In the next step, they are cut into appropriate sizes for pickles, and are designated as Tokuko No. 56-22245 and Jikko No. 56-
No. 21241, No. 56-21242, No. 56-36299, No. 57
Pickled in the pickle making machine shown in -14620. However, the needle insertion and cutting processes are performed separately, and the transfer of the radish etc. from the needle insertion mechanism to the cutting mechanism is performed manually, resulting in poor efficiency and high production costs. It had the disadvantage of being expensive.

[Purpose of invention]

The present invention was developed in view of the above, and it synchronizes the intermittent drive of the needle insertion and cutting processes for foods such as daikon radish used as pickles, and automatically performs the needle insertion and cutting processes continuously. It is an object of the present invention to provide a needle cutting machine for cutting radish, etc., which can improve efficiency and reduce production costs.

[Summary of the idea]

The above object of the present invention is to provide an endless conveyor belt for radish, etc. suspended over a pair of rollers and connected to an intermittent drive mechanism to travel intermittently; an endless radish holding belt; a needle insertion device including a direct-acting type difference needle that moves up and down on the conveyor belt to continuously insert needles into the radish; and a needle insertion device disposed at the rear end of the conveyor belt It consists of a cutting blade and a cutting device including a rotating rotor that rotates intermittently in accordance with the running of the conveyor belt and transfers radish, etc. on the conveyor belt to the cutting blade, and each of the above-mentioned intermittent drives is driven by power. This is achieved by needle-slicing machines for radish, etc., which have the same source and are driven synchronously via power transmission mechanisms.

[Structure of the idea]

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In this example, a case will be described in which radish is used as the processed food.

FIG. 1 is a schematic explanatory diagram of a needle insertion and slicing machine for radish, etc. according to the present invention, in which 1 is a needle insertion device and 2 is a cutting device. First, the configuration of the needle insertion device 1 will be described. Numeral 3 is a radish conveyor belt that is suspended between a pair of hanging rollers 4 and 5, and is connected to an intermittent drive mechanism 6 such as a ratchet mechanism to run intermittently; 7 is the conveyor belt. 3
A vertical difference needle 8 is a drive device for the difference needle 7 which moves up and down in a direction perpendicular to the radish to insert the needle into the radish, and is connected to a prime mover 9 by an intermittent drive mechanism 6. 10 is a radish pressing belt formed by hanging a belt 13 between a pair of idle rollers 11 and a driving roller 12, 14 is a food pressing auxiliary roller arranged behind the belt 10, and 15 is the auxiliary roller. Behind the roller 14, there is a base having a gap (for example, a slit, a hole, etc.) through which the needle of the difference needle 7 passes, and has the role of holding down the radish when the difference needle 7 inserts the needle into the radish. are doing. The driving roller 12 and the auxiliary roller 14 are operated by a power transmission mechanism 18 such as a chain suspended between a lower gear 16 connected to the intermittent drive mechanism 6 and an upper gear 17 disposed above the lower gear 16. , are arranged to rotate intermittently in the same direction.

Next, the cutting device 2 will be explained. A rotating rotor 19 is connected to the prime mover 9 via the intermittent drive mechanism 6, and is driven to rotate intermittently in the direction of the arrow in the figure in synchronization with the conveyor belt 3. 20 is an idle roller,
This is a roller that freely moves a power transmission mechanism such as a chain that connects the intermittent drive mechanism 6 and the rotating rotor 19. The rotating rotor 19 is connected to the conveyor belt 3 on the conveyor direction side.
The radish on the belt 3 is transferred to the rear cutting blade 22 by the food receiving part 21 formed on the rotor 19, and the radish is cut into an appropriate size. 23 is a shooter, and the rotating rotor 1
It is provided below 9 to take out the cut radish out of the device.

The cutting blade 22 according to the present invention is attached to a cutting blade support member 26 by a cutting blade attachment 25 with the blade part 24 facing the conveyor belt 3 so that the radish carried by the radish receiving part 21 of the rotating rotor 19 is cut. It is fastened by a stopper 27 such as a bolt. Also, the cutting blade 22
As shown in FIG. 2, insertion slits 28 for the cutting blades 22 are provided in the rotor 19 so that the cutting blades 22 can be moved in the horizontal direction as shown in the drawing. Properly provided, support member 2
It is preferable that the bolt hole 29 of No. 6 is a long hole so that the cutting blade 22 can be stopped at an appropriate position in the insertion slit 28.

The present invention has the above-mentioned configuration, and its functions are as follows.

When the prime mover 9 is rotated and the radish is continuously placed on the conveyor belt 3 which is intermittently running by the intermittent drive mechanism 6, the radish is moved intermittently while being held down by the food holding belt 10 and the auxiliary roller 14, Needle insertion is performed continuously by the difference needle 7 which moves up and down in a direction perpendicular to the conveyor belt 3 while being held down by the conveyor belt 3. The radish further moves intermittently on the belt 3, and at the rear end of the belt 3, an intermittent drive mechanism 6
The food is continuously conveyed to the cutting blade 22 by the radish receiving part 21 of the rotor 19, which rotates intermittently in synchronization with the driving of the belt 3, and the food is properly cut by the cutting blade 22 as the rotor 19 rotates. The daikon radish is cut into a size, and the needle inserted and cut radish is taken out from the shooter 23 to be used as a pickle material.

Therefore, with this device, simply by placing food such as radish on the conveyor belt, subsequent needle insertion and cutting are performed continuously and automatically, which not only improves efficiency but also reduces production costs. Moreover, since the needle insertion part and the cutting part are driven intermittently using the same power source, both parts are driven in synchronization, and foods such as radishes can be continuously and smoothly cut.
