2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, the work of cutting a piece of fish with a certain weight from the half of a fish is usually performed manually. That is, the cutting position is visually determined, and the cutting is performed manually using a kitchen knife. However, not only is it necessary to have many years of experience to accurately make fillets, but since this kind of work becomes a considerable amount of hard work, it is strongly desired to automate it. Therefore, a method has been proposed in which the surface of the fish skin side is optically scanned with a laser slit light, the volume is calculated from the surface data, and the fillet position of a fixed volume is automatically calculated (JP-A-63-63). 216
No. 695 gazette: It is also called a proposed method).

However, in the above-mentioned proposed method, the volume of the fillet is calculated by scanning only the skin side of the fish, and the volume correction due to the abdominal nest portion or the warp of the fish is determined in advance with a certain pattern. Since it is performed using the prepared table, there is a problem in that there is an error in the calculation of the fillet volume due to individual differences in fish and the state of being placed on a cooking table such as a cutting board. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to enable accurate cutting that is not affected by individual differences in fish meat or the state of being placed on a cooking table, and to obtain fillets of constant quality.

In order to solve such a problem, in the present invention, an image obtained by optically scanning a fish meat block is subjected to image processing, and the cutting positions are set so that each of them becomes a fillet having a substantially constant volume. In an automatic fish meat cutting device that automatically calculates and cuts a fish meat block, the first surface (front surface) and the second surface (back surface) of the fish meat block are each scanned at a constant pitch by laser slit light. The heights of the front surface and the back surface are calculated from the image data obtained in this way, and the true value of the fish meat block is calculated from the difference between the volume calculated from the height data on the front surface side and the volume calculated from the height data on the back surface side. It is characterized in that the volume of each is calculated and this is cut into pieces each having a certain value.

That is, the fish half 1 set on the cutting board 2 at the station 0 is conveyed to the station 1 by the belt conveyor 3. Station 1 (light source 4A and camera 5A) scans, for example, the abdominal surface of a fish, and station 2 (light source 4B and camera 5B) scans, for example, the surface of a fish skin. When the skin-side surface data and the abdominal-side surface data are collected, the cutting position is calculated by the image processing device 7, and in the next station 3, the sequencer 8 calculates the calculated data (knife turning angle θ, knife tilting angle). φ,

Hereinafter, the principle of volume calculation for making a fillet having a constant weight according to the present invention will be described. FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram for explaining a method of scanning the surface of the fish with laser slit light, and FIG. 3 shows an example of the surface data of the fish obtained by the method as shown in FIG. That is, the positions of the laser slit light source 4 and the camera 5 will be described as being set at a position of 45 degrees with respect to the surface of the fish to be scanned as shown in FIG. However, it goes without saying that the value of 45 degrees is for simplifying the calculation and is not limited to this value.

First, after detecting the tip of the fish by means such as a linear sensor (not shown), laser slit light is projected from the tip and scanning is performed at a constant pitch (for example, 5 mm intervals as shown in FIG. 2B). , Collect data. At this time, the horizontal pitch of the image data is also constant, and is 1 mm as shown in FIG. 3, for example. The image data obtained in this way is processed by the image processing device 7 and used as coordinate position data on the fish surface, which will be referred to as slit image data Z (U, V) here.

Next, the slit image data Z (U,
A method of obtaining data (referred to as height data) indicating the true height position of the fish fillet surface from V) will be described.
From FIG. 4, the following equation is established. tan ρ = Z / D J = Z cos ρ cos (45 ° −ρ) = J / H

Here, the turning angle of the knife for cutting the fish is θ, the tilt angle is φ, and the position coordinate is u. Here, FIG.
Assuming that the coordinate system obtained by rotating the (u, v) coordinate system by the turning angle θ is (x, y), the coordinate conversion is performed as follows: u = xcosθ−ysinθ v = xsinθ + ycosθ (2) Therefore, the height data H

When the skin side and the abdominal cavity side are scanned by the laser slit light at different timings, for example, FIG.
As indicated by a dotted line and a solid line, the skin side data and the abdominal cavity side data are usually displaced, so it is desirable to make a correction in advance. That is, four points a, b, c, d on the skin side edge are extracted with reference to the tip of the fish, and four points a ', b', c ', d'on the edge on the abdominal cavity side are obtained, and these points match each other. Therefore, it is necessary to take measures such as translating the data.
