Summary of the invention
The present invention processes and slaughters the equipment of one or more steps automatic business processing of animal carcass and method there is a problem that the substantial amounts of carcass stream of needs, in order to regain the special equipment investment needed for this automatization.
Now, it is an object of the invention to provide and a kind of can realize, with limited fund, the method and apparatus that automatic business processing slaughters animal carcass further.It is a further object of the present invention to provide a kind of method and apparatus being capable of in carcass processing procedure further motility.
The present invention provides a kind of equipment slaughtering animal carcass hung for automatic business processing from back leg, including: for handling the automatically controlled actuating device of slaughtering tool；The rotary cutting blade carried by automatically controlled actuating device, described rotary cutting blade shifts on the plane of symmetry of substantially stomach wall carcass to be cut open；And for separately carcass pubis and cut off blade by what automatically controlled actuating device carried.In a specific embodiment, described equipment also includes that part covers the cover body of rotary cutting blade, and described cover body is provided with the prominent directing pin that stomach wall is cut period open and slided below at carcass stomach wall.Further, cut off blade described in and can be connected to the cover body of part covering rotary cutter sheet.But, as long as it is identical with the control driving means carrying rotary cutting blade to carry the control driving means cutting off blade, cuts off blade and different connected modes can also be used to be connected to control driving means.One important advantage of the equipment according to the present invention is to cut off blade and rotary cutting blade all uses identical control driving means to handle；This is not only a cheap solution, also is able in shorter processing time period merge the both operations using these cutters to perform simultaneously.
For handle butcher handling implement automatically controlled actuating device can e.g. robot arm but any other mechanical hand can also be selected as substitute, the most within the scope of the invention, it is possible to use more conventional XYZ mechanical hand.Cover body can partly cover rotary cutting blade, and can provide for keeping intestines not contact with stomach wall (also referred to as abdomen wall).The prominent directing pin being connected to cover body can contribute to guiding rotary cutter relative to carcass (if using this cutting mode, it is also possible to during cutting breastbone) during cutting stomach wall in conjunction with cover body.Cutting period open at stomach wall, prominent directing pin can be slided after carcass stomach wall, but directing pin can be used for, during using the cutting of rotary cutter sheet, stomach wall is applied pulling force, in order to relative to export-oriented " tractive " stomach wall of internal organs.
Generally, one of different disposal step for slaughtered animals carcass that the stomach wall breastbone at carcass is carried out before cutting open is to cut off pubis.Pubis this cuts off operation and can manually complete, but on substantial amounts of slaughter production line, it is provided that using the automation equipment of cutting tool (cutting off device), it is heavier that described cutting tool cuts device open relative to stomach wall, shows as a kind of cutter being pushed through pubis.Cut off blade and can show as the fixing blade that cuts off, but can also use multi-form cut off blade, such as cut off that period moves the most discontinuously cuts off blade.Being typically be provided with protective element and guide the rotary cutting blade of preventer for cutting the cutter of carcass stomach wall (abdomen wall) and breastbone (chest) open, described guiding preventer prevents from cutting away intestines and/or other Interior Body positions.Rotary cutting blade can be used for cutting off pubis, but the dual use of rotary cutting blade tool has several drawbacks in that.When being used for cutting (harder) pubis open, rotary cutting blade is readily able to abrasion.Rotary cutting blade must be provided with cutting the sawtooth of pubis, but will be the sharpest when cutting stomach wall and breastbone open, can produce the problem that cutting is not carried out in desired position.It addition, the rotary cutting blade of circle also compares inapplicable for cutting pubis.If using rotary cutting blade cutting pubis, then can obtain big otch, the risk that internal organs (intestines and bladder) damage is consequently increased.It addition, not all pubis can use rotary cutting blade to divide, because being not always able to outside carcass determine the position of pubis.In order to avoid using these shortcomings of rotary cutting blade cutting pubis, it is possible to use cut off blade.Use cuts off blade and has the advantage, that the cutting of pubis can be more accurate, and otch can be opened less；Only arrive at pubis in the place needed.Therefore, the risk damaging internal organs (intestines and bladder) is the least.Further, cut off blade and will find " path of their own "；Cut off blade to be guided by the shape of pubis.Additionally, rotary cutting blade need not arrange sawtooth, hence in so that rotary cutting blade is more suitable for cutting stomach wall (and breastbone) open.Finally, rotary cutting blade is more lasting；The abrasion of rotary cutting blade is the least.But, use that cut off blade to cut the shortcoming of pubis open be to need extra automatically controlled actuating device (such as robot arm).Now, the present invention can effective use rotary cutting blade and cut off the combination of blade in an efficient way, because only one automatically controlled actuating device i.e. can manipulate above two blade, and only needs the conventional process station to using rotary cutting blade to cut stomach wall and breastbone open to carry out the least correction.
In one embodiment, only by the position of the cover body covering rotary cutting blade relative to rotary cutting blade changing section, can realize changing rotary cutting blade and cutting off operating position and the off position of blade.By being pivoted cover body relative to rotary cutting blade, the such as rotary shaft around rotary cutting blade pivots, and can complete the change in location of cover body.Owing to complete equipment preferably automatically controls, so the cover body that part covers rotary cutting blade can also be automatically controlled relative to the position of rotary cutting blade.Using rotary cutting blade to carry out cutting open in the existing killing machinery of stomach wall and breastbone at some, be used for cover body (lid), the position of described cover body is automatically controlled.Now, by cover body with to cut off blade and be combined be structurally simple, but according to inventive device provides significant additional function.
In a specific embodiment, described equipment also includes the detection device being connected to the automatic controller of driving means.The individual character of each carcass and carcass can be automatically controlled process operation and be associated by this detection device (such as visual inspection systems).
By the structure simply and reliably that the cover body cutting off blade and part covering rotary cutting blade is combined it is: the cover body being provided with the arm that extra carrying cuts off blade is provided.
In order to realize cutting off the simple replacement of blade, cut off blade and can be detachably connected to cover the cover body of rotary cutting blade.
The present invention also provides for a kind of method that automatic business processing slaughters animal carcass, including step: a) provides and slaughters animal carcass；B) carcass is hung from back leg；C) the automated cutter that cuts off is used to separate carcass pubis；And d) use automated rotary cutting blade, in the generally carcass plane of symmetry, otch is set on the stomach wall of back leg；And e) step d) period holding intestines do not contact with stomach wall, that time that the automated rotary cutting blade wherein used in processing step d) contacts with carcass, the cutter that cuts off used at process step c) also contacts with same carcass.In a specific embodiment of this method, the off position of the operating position and rotary cutting blade that cut off cutter is changed to cut off the off position of cutter and the operating position of rotary cutting blade.One important advantage of the method is separately pubis and two operation part overlaps of open abdomen, and that therefore shortens the two operation is jointly processed by the time.Further, for the method being also applied for the present invention according to the advantage described by the equipment of the present invention.In step d) period, stomach wall can also be tightened up (outside tractive), so that using rotary cutter or the prominent directing pin impaired probability of limit intestines further.Additionally, generally after step d), the otch on stomach wall reaches breastbone by continuing, in order to disposable by stomach wall and sternal incisions.
In order to start the new production cycle, it is preferable that after a production cycle completes, the operating position of the off position and rotary cutting blade that cut off cutter becomes the off position for the operating position and rotary cutting blade cutting off cutter again.
