[Problems to be solved by the device]

 When thinly cutting sliced pieces with this type of slicer, the blade is rotated at a high speed to increase the number of cuts per hour, and in the case of thick slices, the material feed amount of the slicer is increased and the feed required. It is necessary to reduce the number of revolutions of the cutting tool in time. Since there was no conventional slicer that could change the slice thickness to a wide range, for example, 0.5 to 30,0 m / m, it is necessary to install dedicated slicers for thick and thin slices. However, there are drawbacks such as high equipment cost and large installation space for machines. For this reason, it has been required in this type of slicer to be able to change the thickness of the sliced piece in a wide range with one slicer.

[Action]

 The slicer of the present invention transmits the speed selection command of the blade to the sequencer in tandem with the thickness setting operation of the thickness adjusting device that determines the material feed amount inside the controller that has the speed program corresponding to the thickness setting pre-installed. To be done. According to this selection command, the sequencer connected to the controller changes the output frequency of the connected inverter, and rotates the blade motor that drives the blade rotation axis at the frequency corresponding to the set thickness. . The blade motor using a three-phase induction motor shifts the height to high or low according to the change of the frequency, and automatically changes the rotational speed of the blade for cutting the sliced piece, that is, the time required for one rotation, to short or long. The present invention automatically follows the cutting cycle of the blade according to the thickness of the slice piece set as described above, and is capable of slicing from thick slices to thin slices.

【Example】

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIG. 1, the horizontal slicer S includes a meat box 1 installed on the front side of the machine base F and having a U-shaped cross section with a bottom surface 2 inclined, and a rear portion of the material in the meat box 1. A feeding device 4 for gripping and moving intermittently toward the front end portion 3, a storage box 5 installed in the extension direction of the meat box 1 and sequentially storing cut slice pieces (not shown), and a thickness adjustment The operation unit such as the node device T is attached and fixed to the operation operation unit D installed on the upper surface of the machine base F and the rotating shaft 6 laterally extending to the side of the front end 3 of the meat box 1 as shown in FIG. The meat box 1 and the storage box 5 are constantly rotated to provide a jewel-shaped blade 7 for cutting the material extruded from the meat box 1.

As shown in FIG. 3, in the feeding device 4, a support portion 11 is fitted to a screw shaft 9 and a slide guide shaft 10 which are rotated by a feed motor M1 provided in a machine base F via a belt 8. Then, with the intermittent rotation of the motor M1, it moves to the left in the figure, and pushes the material m from the rear side in the meat box 1. The rotary shaft 6 to which the blade 7 is fixed is driven by the blade driving motor M2 via the belt 12 and constantly rotates while the slicer S is operating. As described above, a three-phase induction motor with a brake capable of shifting to three stages of high speed, medium speed, and low speed via an inverter 28 is used as the driving motor M2 for the cutting tool. In this case, a servo motor, which is controlled so that the amount of rotation angle can be changed, is used in a servo driver 25 described later.

As shown in FIG. 4, the driving operation section D includes a thickness changing operation section 14 provided with an operation panel 13 including an increase key a and a decrease key b for increasing the thickness of a slice piece, and an electronic thickness display section 1. 5. Set number counter c (display section), total number counter d (display section), numeric keypad 16 for thickness adjustment and number setting, thickness setting key 17, number setting key 18, setting key 19, clear key 20 It is provided with an operation start switch 21, a stop switch 22, a power switch 23 and the like.

FIG. 5 shows the configuration of a drive control circuit E attached to the slicer S to control the drive of the above-mentioned members. The operation panel 13 to which the feed adjusting device T including the thickness changing operation unit 14 and the numeric keypad 16 for adjusting the thickness and the number of sheets is attached is included in the controller 24 in which a speed program corresponding to the thickness setting is incorporated in advance. Has been done. The controller 24, together with the sequencer 27, instructs the feed motor M1 to change the thickness via the servo driver 25. The servo driver 25 continues to operate until the command from the controller 24 is accurately transmitted to the feed motor M1 while the changed angle is fed back from the tacho generator 26 attached to the feed motor M1.

The blade driving motor M 2 is connected to the sequencer 27, which is connected to the controller 24 and controls the operation of each member, via an inverter 28. In the figure, 29 is a switch circuit unit to which the operation start switch 20, stop switch 21, power switch 22 and the like are connected, 30 is a relay circuit unit, and 31 is each sensor attached to each place of this slicer S. The sensor circuit part.

One sensor S1 in the sensor circuit unit 31 is installed close to the rotary shaft 6 of the blade 7 for intermittent activation of the feed motor M1 as shown in FIGS. The operation timing position of the sensor S1 is, as shown in FIG. 2, provided so as to drive the feed motor M1 when the rotational angle position of the blade 7 is out of the front end portion 3 of the meat box 1. m is set to a position where it is intermittently driven by the feeding device 4 without being interfered by the blade 7.

The slicer S having the above-described structure operates in accordance with the thickness changing operation of the thickness changing operation unit 14 by pressing the increase key a or the decrease key b, and the thickness set inside the controller 24 is set. The speed selection command corresponding to is transmitted to the sequencer 27. The sequencer 27 changes the output frequency of the inverter 28 according to this selection command, and rotates the blade motor M2 that drives the rotary shaft 6 of the blade 7 at a new frequency corresponding to the set thickness. The blade motor M2, which uses a three-phase induction motor, shifts high and low according to the change in frequency, and the time required for one rotation of the blade 7 to cut the slice piece, that is, the cutting cycle, is wide and long. Instead, the material is cut at a cycle corresponding to the time required for feeding the material m from the thick cut to the thin cut. In the illustrated embodiment, the thickness of sliced pieces and the number of cuts per hour are 280 / min when the thickness is 0.5 to 5.0 m / m, 240 / min when 5.1 to 10.0 m / m, and 10.1 to 30.0 m. / M is set to 200 / min.

This slicer S is the same as the conventional model, and after pressing the thickness setting key 17 and the clear key 20 in the operation panel 13, the desired thickness is numerically input with the ten keys 16. It is also possible to adjust the thickness by pressing the setting key 19. Further, also in the case of this thickness changing operation, the blade motor M2 is geared in the same manner as the operation of the thickness changing operating section 14. As described above, the thickness adjusting device T in this embodiment also includes a portion for setting the thickness with the ten-key pad 16 or the like, in addition to the thickness changing operation portion 14.
