Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Purpose of the Invention [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a cutting device with a scraper that cuts an object into fillets using a rotating round blade.

[Prior Art] Various cutting devices have been proposed for cutting fish meat, stored meat, and the like into predetermined fillets in order to obtain a large amount of fillets for use in school lunches, restaurants, and the like. For example, there is one in which the object to be cut is placed on a pedestal and the distance between the pedestal and a rotating round blade is changed to cut into fillets of uniform weight (Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 79832-1983);
A system has been proposed (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 1993-36, 1983) in which the objects to be cut that are continuously fed are fixed on a stand that reciprocates at high speed and are cut into fillets by a rotating round blade.

[Problems that the invention attempts to solve] However, these conventional cutting devices have the following problems:
When cutting, the fat, etc. that oozes from the object itself adheres to the rotating round blade, and the adhered fat, etc. causes the fillet to stick to the round blade and pull it, making it easier to align the fillet after cutting. There was a problem that the image was disturbed. Further, when the weight of the fillet is light, the fillet stuck to the round blade cannot be easily separated from the round blade. As a result, the fillets were subject to centrifugal force from the rotating round blade, causing the problem of the fillets scattering.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The purpose of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems, and to provide a cutting device that does not cause fillets to collapse, become misaligned, or scatter during cutting.

Structure of the invention [Means for solving the problems] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention has the following structure as a means for solving the problems. That is, in a cutting device in which a rotating round blade moves relative to the object to cut into fillets, a thin plate-shaped scraper that moves together with the round blade is moved parallel to the round blade on the fillet side. Arranged in contact with the side surface of the round blade and interposed between the side surface of the round blade that cuts into the object to be cut behind the cutting blade position and the fillet being cut, and on the cutting edge of the round blade. This is the structure of a cutting device with a scraper that extends toward the vicinity of the cutting edge and separates the fillet from the round blade.

[Function] In the cutting device with a scraper having the above configuration, the rotating round blade moves relative to the object to cut the object, and the scraper cuts the object behind the cutting edge position. Between the side of the round blade cutting into the blade and the fillet being cut, the fillet is separated from the side of the round blade to prevent the fillet from scattering.

[Example] Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a partially sectional perspective view of a cutting device with a scraper that is an embodiment of the present invention. This cutting device with a scraper includes a round blade 1 for cutting a fish F as an object to be cut, and this round blade 1 is fixed to the side surface of a gear 2. The gear 2 has two bearings 4 and 6.
A main stepped shaft 8 is fitted into the two bearings 4 and 6. Further, a collar 10 is inserted into the main stepped shaft 8, and one end of the main stepped shaft 8 passing through the collar 10 is shaved off in parallel on both sides to form a width across flats portion 8a. .

A groove 12a formed on one side of the locking member 12 is fitted into the width across flats portion 8a, and a groove 12b is formed on the other side of the locking member 12. A scraper 14 having an elastic thin plate shape and having a thickness of about 0.4 mm in this embodiment is fitted into this groove 12b, and is fixed to the main stepped shaft 8 with a bolt 15. Further, the scraper 14 has one end that is
It is bent downward from the groove 12b and toward the round blade 1 so that the scraper 14 and the round blade 1 are parallel to each other. In addition, the scraper 14
is placed in contact with the side surface of the round blade 1 on the side of the fillet Fa to be cut, which will be described later. Further, the scraper 14 is located behind the cutting edge position E where the cutting edge 1a of the round blade 1 touches and cuts the fish F, and the side surface of the round blade 1 cutting into the fish F and the fillet Fa being cut.
It is arranged to be interposed between. Moreover, the tip of the scraper 14 extends toward the cutting edge 1a of the round blade 1 to the vicinity of the cutting edge 1a. Also at the tip of the round blade 1, the tip 14a of the scraper 14 is bent along the shape of the tip and abuts against the side surface of the round blade 1.

On the other hand, a stepped portion 8b is formed in the middle of the main stepped shaft 8, and a portion of this stepped portion 8b is cut out to form a flat portion 8c. This flat part 8
A convex portion 16a formed on a plate-shaped connecting member 16 that is fitted onto the main stepped shaft 8 is in contact with c. Furthermore, following the connecting member 16, a collar 18, a ball wheel 20, and a collar 22 are fitted into the main stepped shaft 8 in this order. Furthermore, following the collar 22, a V-shaped wheel 26 into which a bearing 24 is fitted, a collar 28, a plate-shaped connecting member 30, a collar 32, and a ball-containing wheel 34 are fitted into the main stepped shaft 8 in this order. A bearing nut 36 is attached to the other end of the main stepped shaft 8.
is screwed in and locked.

Further, a gear 38 that meshes with the gear 2 is rotatably fitted to a sub-stepped shaft 40 arranged in parallel with the main stepped shaft 8. Also in the middle of this sub-stepped shaft 40, there is a stepped portion 4.
0a is formed, and a part of this stepped portion 40a is cut out to form a flat portion 40b. A convex portion 16a formed on the connecting member 16 externally fitted onto the sub-stepped shaft 40 is in contact with this flat portion 40b. Similarly, a ball-containing wheel 42, a V-shaped wheel 44, the connecting member 30, and a ball-containing wheel 46 are fitted into the sub-stepped shaft 8 in this order.

Further, a rack 48 that meshes with the gear 38 is formed in a continuous oval shape, and a V-shaped rack 48 that is in contact with both the V-shaped wheels 26 and 44 is parallel to the rack 48.
A groove rail 50 is provided. Below this V-groove rail 50, in parallel, each of the ball-containing wheels 20,
A rail 52 in contact with 34, 42, and 46 is also provided. Further, a chain 54 driven by a drive device (not shown) is disposed in parallel with the rail 52, and this chain 54 is engaged with one end of the main stepped shaft 8. These V groove rails 5
Similarly to the rack 48, the rail 52 and chain 54 are also formed in a continuous oval shape.

Next, the operation of the cutting device with a scraper of this embodiment will be explained.

First, the fish F is placed on a cutting board (not shown), and the tip of the fish F is moved in the direction of the arrow A by a distance corresponding to the width of the fillet Fa to be cut from the cutting edge 1a of the round blade 1. Next, when the chain 54 driven by a drive device (not shown) is moved in the direction of arrow B, the main stepped shaft 8 moves between the rail 52 and the groove rail 50.
Ball-containing wheels 20, 34 and V that roll in contact with
Guided by mold wheels 26, it moves in the direction of arrow B. Along with this, the main stepped shaft 8 and the connecting member 16,
30 is guided by ball wheels 42, 46 and V-shaped wheels 44, which also roll in contact with rails 52 and V-groove rails 50, and moves in the direction of arrow B. Also, gear 3
8 engages with the rack 48 and rotates in the direction of arrow C. Further, the gear 2 rotates in the direction of arrow D, and therefore the round blade 1 also rotates in the direction of arrow D. Therefore, the round blade 1 rotates in the direction of arrow D while moving in the direction of arrow B. On the other hand, the main stepped shaft 8 and the sub stepped shaft 40 are
Each flat part 8c, 40 and the convex part 16a of the connecting member 16
Rotation is prevented by the scraper 14.
is along with the main stepped shaft 8, that is, along with the round blade 1, along with the arrow B.
It moves in the direction, but does not rotate.

The cutting edge 1a of the round blade 1 that moves while rotating
is in contact with fish F at the cutting edge position E and filleted fish F.
Cut to Fa. The round blade 1 that has completely cut the fish F and moved in the direction of the arrow B moves along the rail 52 and the V-groove rail 50, drawing an elliptical trajectory,
Return to the original position again. Until the round blade 1 returns, the fish F is moved in the direction of arrow A by a distance corresponding to the width of the fillet Fa, and is again cut into fillets Fa by the returned round blade 1. The above operation is repeated and the fish F is successively cut into fillets Fa.

During this cutting, the scraper 14 separates the fillet Fa separated by the cutting edge 1a of the round blade 1 from the side surface of the round blade 1. That is, along with the cutting, the fish F
Fat, etc. oozes out and adheres to the side of the round blade 1, but even if the cut fillet Fa sticks to the side of the round blade 1 due to this fat, or the fillet Fa
The scraper 14 separates the fillet Fa from the side surface of the round blade 1 even if it sticks to the side surface of the round blade 1 due to fat or the like. In addition, at the tip 14a of the scraper 14, which is located in the immediate vicinity of the cutting edge position E of the round blade 1, before the fillet Fa comes into contact with the side surface of the round blade 1,
Release Fa from the side of the round blade.

Note that the scraper 14 not only extends downward, but also extends upward, as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. It may be configured so that it extends toward the cutting edge 1a of the round blade 1 to the vicinity of the cutting edge 1a, and scrapes off fat and the like adhering to the side surface of the round blade 1. Also, like this,
By making the scraper 14 extend downward and upward on both sides, and by changing the width of the scraper 14 on each side, the shape and weight of the fillet Fa to be cut can be adjusted by removing the bolt 15 and replacing the scraper 14 upside down. The optimum width can be selected according to the scraper 1.
Fillet Fa is stuck to the side of 4, and scraper 1
4, it can also be prevented from being pushed out in the direction of arrow B. Furthermore, the shape of the tip 14a of the scraper 14 may be semicircular or semicircular as shown in the figure.
Alternatively, as shown by the two-dot chain line, a shape 14b with diagonally cut corners or a rectangular shape may be used.

As mentioned above, in the cutting device with a scraper of this embodiment, the circular blade 1 that moves while rotating is
At the same time as cutting into the fillet Fa, it comes into contact with the side of the round blade 1 on the side of the fillet Fa and is placed behind the cutting edge position E.
In addition, the scraper 14 extending toward the cutting edge 1a of the round blade 1 is inserted between the side surface of the round blade 1 cutting into the fish F behind the cutting edge position E and the fillet Fa being cut. Separate fillet Fa from the side.

Therefore, according to the cutting device with a scraper of this embodiment, the fillet Fa does not come into contact with the scraper 14, but is interposed between the side surface of the round blade 1 and the fillet Fa to separate the fillet Fa from the round blade 1, so that, for example, , even when cutting fish F into thin slices Fa for sashimi, etc., or when slicing ham thinly, the fillet
Fa never gives up. In addition, due to fat adhering to the side of the round blade 1, the fillet Fa may be cut off by the round blade 1.
The alignment of the fillets Fa may be disrupted due to sticking and pulling, or the centrifugal force from the round blade 1 may cause the fillets Fa to become unaligned.
There is no possibility that Fa will be scattered.

In this embodiment, the round blade 1 is moved in the direction of the arrow 1, but it is also possible to move the fish F in the opposite direction of the arrow B without moving the round blade 1. Furthermore, the present invention is not limited to the case in which the round blade 1 is orthogonal to the fish F, but can also be implemented as a configuration in which the round blade 1 is tilted toward the front side in FIG. 1 to cut the fish F diagonally. Furthermore,
The object to be cut is not limited to fish F, for example, meat,
Possible meats such as ham, things that release sticky liquid when cut, or things that are sticky.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments in any way, and it goes without saying that the present invention can be implemented in various forms without departing from the gist of the present invention.

Effects of the Invention As detailed above, according to the scraper-equipped cutting device of the present invention, even if the object to be cut is cut into thin fillets, the fillets can be separated from the round blade without causing the fillets to crumble, and the fillets can be separated after cutting. This has the effect of preventing misalignment and scattering of fillets.
