【Example】
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings illustrating embodiments of the present invention. In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the sending device 1 is composed of a pair of upper and lower belt conveyors 5 which can move intermittently, and is mounted on a sending frame (not shown). The pair of upper and lower belt conveyors 5 can rotate in opposite directions, that is, can move in the directions of the arrows, respectively, and sandwich the block meat A between the upper and lower belt conveyors 5 and move in the horizontal direction (the direction of the arrow D). It is moved and sent out intermittently to the front receiving device 2 side.
[0009]
A receiving device 2 is provided facing the front of the sending device 1. In this embodiment, the receiving device 2 is composed of a roll having an appropriate diameter supported on a roll shaft 6 in a lateral direction (a direction perpendicular to the paper surface of FIGS. 1 and 2), and a needle is provided on the roll peripheral surface. Thus, a receiving surface 4 is formed.
[0010]
When the intermittent feeding by the upper and lower belt conveyors 5 is stopped, the block meat A is slice-cut to a constant thickness by the cutting action of the cutter 3 in the cutting direction. That is, the cutter 3 is provided between the sending device 1 and the receiving device 2.
[0011]
As shown in FIG. 3, the cutter 3 of the present embodiment is formed of a band blade and is stretched between left and right gears 7 so as to surround the outer periphery of the receiving device 2. Action can be performed. The cutting action position of the cutter 3 is set on a radial direction line directly connecting the roll shaft 6 which is the center of rotation of the receiving surface 4 and the sending direction line D of the block meat A.
[0012]
The receiving device 2 and the cutter 3 are mounted on the same cutter frame (not shown), and together with the cutter frame, the receiving device 2 and the cutter 3 are installed at fixed positions.
[0013]
In the present embodiment, the delivery frame on which the delivery device 1 composed of the pair of upper and lower belt conveyors 5 is mounted is moved to the cutter frame in which the receiving device 2 and the cutter 3 are mounted and set at a fixed position. It is configured to reciprocate up and down along the cutting direction as shown by reference numerals B1 and B2 in FIG. By vertically reciprocating the delivery frame B1 and B2, the block meat A can be cut from the upper side to the lower side by the cutter 3 when the delivery device 1 is raised, as shown in FIGS.
[0014]
The receiving device 2 is driven to rotate around the roll shaft 6 as shown by an arrow C. The rotation C is set in the same direction as the forward movement B1 in which the delivery device 1 moves from the bottom to the top, that is, the stroke in which the cutting operation is performed by the cutter 3, and at substantially the same speed.
[0015]
Thereby, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the block meat A is sliced from the upper side to the lower side by the cutter 3 by the elevation of the sending device 1 (the forward movement B1). Along with this, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, this thinned thin wall A2 is transported in synchronization with the cutting progress in the rotation direction C while being held on the receiving surface 4, and the cut and separated thin wall A2 is It is completely received on this receiving surface 4 side.
[0016]
The thin wall A2 is received on the receiving surface 4 and is maintained in the receiving state. The thin wall A2 is less likely to be broken or broken when receiving the cutting resistance by the cutter 3, and the stable cutting posture and the receiving posture are maintained, thereby receiving an accurate cutting action. .
[0017]
In this manner, the thin wall A2 cut by the cutter 3 and received by the receiving device 2 is transported forward (toward the non-sending device 1) with the rotation C of the receiving device 2. A scraper 8 is provided in front of the receiving device 2 in the rotation C direction, as shown in FIG. A conveyor 9 is provided below the scraper 8.
[0018]
The thin wall A2 received by the receiving device 2 is conveyed forward (toward the non-sending device 1) with the rotation C of the receiving device 2, and is taken out on the lower conveyor 9 by the stripping action of the scraper 8. You.
[0019]
Each time the feeding device 1 intermittently moves in the direction of arrow D, the cutter 3 performs a thin-slicing action, and the block meat A is cut and separated into thin sheets A2 for each sheet. The cutting thickness of each of the thin portions A2 is determined by the amount of delivery of the delivery device 1 and the distance between the receiving surface 4 of the receiving device 2 and the cutter 3. Therefore, it is preferable that the distance be changed and adjusted.
[0020]
Another embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. In FIG. 4, the difference from the above-described embodiment is that the receiving device 2 is configured in an endless belt form instead of a roll form. That is, the endless band having the needles planted on the peripheral surface can be wound around the rolls 10, 11, and 12 located at the apexes of the triangle and can be driven to rotate. Is stretched between the upper and lower rolls 10 and 11 so as to be parallel to the cutting direction of the cutter 3, and is rotated in the direction of arrow C so that the receiving surface 4 moves upward.
[0021]
The receiving surface 4 may be substantially along the cutting end face of the block meat A by the cutter 3 (to be the sending end face A1), and the cutting direction by the cutter 3 is the sending direction of the block meat A by the sending device 1. The receiving surface 4 is set substantially along the cutting direction, not limited to the direction perpendicular to the cutting direction.
[0022]
In the above-described embodiment, a band blade is used as the cutter 3. However, the cutter 3 is not limited to the band blade, and a rotating disk blade, a nata blade, or the like may be provided instead of the band blade. .
[0023]
In addition, the receiving surface 4 of the receiving device 2 and the height and shape of the needle-like projections are not limited to the illustrated embodiment, and any configuration may be used as long as the thin A2 cut by frictional resistance can be easily held. .
[0024]
As a means for changing and adjusting the distance between the receiving surface 4 of the receiving device 2 and the cutter 3 as described above, the roll shaft 6 and the rolls 10 to 12 may be moved back and forth with respect to the cutter 3, Alternatively, the cutter 3 may be moved back and forth with respect to the receiving device 2.
[0025]
Further, in the illustrated embodiment, the diameter of the roll rotating around the roll axis 6 of the receiving device 2 may be exchangeable.
[0026]
【The invention's effect】
In the present invention, a cutter, which is provided at a fixed position, includes a sending device 1 that sends out block meat A, a cutter 3 that slices the block meat A sent by the sending device 1, and a receiving device 2 that receives the sliced meat. Since the sending device 1 can reciprocate up and down with respect to the receiving device 3 and the receiving device 2, when the block meat A is sliced, the sending device reciprocates in the up and down direction and reciprocates right and left in a substantially horizontal plane. Nothing. Therefore, there is no danger to the worker working in the vicinity of the slicing device due to the reciprocating movement left and right in the horizontal plane, and the safety is greatly improved.
[0027]
Further, in the present invention, since the cutter 3 is always operated at a fixed position and cuts when the feeding device 1 is lifted, an operator working near the slicing device poses a danger by moving the cutter 3. I do not suffer.
[0028]
Furthermore, in the present invention, since the block meat or the cutter does not reciprocate left and right, when slicing raw meat, the cut thin meat does not adhere to the cutter or is shaken off, and the sliced meat is cut off. It can be taken out in an orderly manner, and subsequent processing operations such as serving and tray packaging can be performed smoothly.
[0029]
In the embodiment of the present invention, during this cutting operation, the receiving surface 4 of the receiving device 2 moves in the same direction as the cutting direction B1 of the sending device 1. For this reason, the cut sliced meat piece received on the receiving surface 4 is almost maintained in the state when it was received on the receiving surface 4 and is less likely to collapse or break, and is received on the receiving surface 4 after cutting. Since the moving process is performed from the cutting position while keeping the position, the slice cutting process of the block meat A can be performed accurately and orderly.
