Detailed Description

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the technical solutions of the present invention will be described in detail below. It is to be understood that the described embodiments are merely exemplary of the invention, and not restrictive of the full scope of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the examples given herein without any inventive step, are within the scope of the present invention.

The purpose of this embodiment is to provide a poultry slaughtering device, solve how to realize the problem of the accurate cutting of different birds cutting larynx bloodletting under the current production line condition of not modifying.

Hereinafter, embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings. The embodiments described below do not limit the contents of the invention described in the claims. The entire contents of the configurations shown in the following embodiments are not limited to those required as solutions of the inventions described in the claims.

Referring to fig. 1-2, in the present embodiment, the poultry slaughtering apparatus includes a head fixing structure 2, a throat limiting structure 3, a cutting structure, a lifting structure 1, a cutting depth adjusting structure 12, an information collecting assembly and a controller. Wherein:

as shown in fig. 2, the head fixing structure 2 is used for clamping and fixing the head of the live poultry, the head fixing structure 2 includes two clamping portions 202 and a first moving assembly, and the first moving assembly drives the two clamping portions 202 to approach and move away from each other, so that the two clamping portions 202 clamp and fix the heads of the live poultry with different sizes. Specifically, the first moving assembly is a translation fixture or a rotation fixture, the translation fixture comprises two connecting rods which move along the same straight line, the connecting rods can be driven by the air cylinders to move, and the two connecting rods are respectively connected with the two clamping portions 202 to drive the two clamping portions 202 to mutually approach and leave along the same straight line direction; alternatively, the rotating clamp may be configured as a finger cylinder, which drives the two clamping portions 202 to rotate around the same point, thereby achieving the approaching and the separating. It should be noted that the shape of the skull of the live bird is generally triangular, so the pressure applied to the surface of the head by the two clamping portions 202 is not equal, and because the pressure directions of the two contact surfaces deviate from the center of mass of the head, when the two clamping portions 202 are respectively pressed, a moment for rotating the head of the live bird is generated, so that the beak of the live bird faces a specified direction, and therefore, the head fixing structure also has the function of adjusting the orientation of the beak of the live bird.

The throat limiting structure 3 comprises a first side limiting part and a second side limiting part, the first side limiting part and the second side limiting part respectively abut against two sides of the throat of the live poultry, the second side limiting part comprises two limiting parts which are arranged from top to bottom, the two limiting parts are located on the same vertical surface, and the first side limiting part is located between the two limiting parts. So, through spacing portion in first side and two other spacing portions, throat limit structure 3 can support at least three different positions in live bird throat to trachea, the blood vessel to the throat carry on spacingly, avoid trachea, blood vessel activity, under the counterpressure effect of spacing portion in first side and the spacing portion in second side moreover, make waiting of throat cut the position by spacing portion in first side to the direction arch that is close to spacing portion, the follow-up cutting of being convenient for. Of course, in other embodiments, a plurality of limiting structures may be provided to compress the blood vessel, trachea, and esophagus of the larynx to limit the movement of the blood vessel, trachea, and esophagus. It should be noted that, because the trachea is tightly attached to the larynx, the surface is smooth and easy to move, and the trachea has a large moving space, and the trachea can be cut off only by fully limiting the movement of the trachea when the trachea is cut along the larynx, the laryngeal limiting structure 3 is required to fully limit the laryngeal trachea and the blood vessel before cutting.
