Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a seaweed cutting device for pumping a mixture of seaweed and water and cutting with a cutting knife.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a cutting machine using a screw (for example, JP-B-49-1435) has been used exclusively for cutting seaweed. That is, seaweed was pressed against a perforated plate with a rotating screw, pushed out from each hole, and cut with a cutting knife.

[0003]

According to the above-mentioned prior art, since the seaweed is squeezed with a strong pressure by the screw force, the quality of the seaweed is easily deteriorated, and the seaweed may be crushed between the cutting knife and the perforated plate. Was causing a decline.

[0004]

According to the present invention, however, the above-mentioned conventional problems have been solved by transferring seaweed together with water by a pump and cutting the seaweed with a cutting knife while passing the perforated plate.

Namely this invention, the inside of the bottomed cylindrical outer tub, installed bottom Backed porous tubular frusto inverted conical, provided laver inlet port at the top of the porous tube, the center of the perforated tube A rotary shaft is projectingly installed on the section, and the drive means is connected to the rotary shaft .
Before Symbol a disk boss fitted fixed to the projecting portion of the inner rotating shaft of the porous tube, projecting from the arm to the disc, the arm end, along the inner wall and the sliding Sessu to the inner wall of the porous tube inclined The seaweed cutting device is characterized in that the cutting knife is fixed. Further, the perforated cylinder has a truncated conical shape. In the above description, the bottomed porous cylinder is stably held by the bottomed outer frame.

[0006]

According to the present invention, since the seaweed is pumped together with water and the cutting knife is fixed to the disk through the arm, the seaweed is pushed out from the side wall hole of the bottomed perforated cylinder and is successively cut. It

EXAMPLES To a central portion of a cylindrical outer tank 2 having a tank bottom plate 1,
A frame bottom plate 4 provided on the outer frame 3 is fixed, and a frame inside the outer frame 3 is fixed.
The bottom plate 6 of the truncated conical perforated cylinder 5 is fixed to the bottom plate 4 .
A rotary shaft 7 is vertically projecting from the center of the bottom plate 6, and the boss 8a of the disk 8 is fixed to the projecting part of the rotary shaft 7,
The bases of four knife arms 9 and 9 are connected to the boss 8a.
Knife blades 10, 10 are provided so as to project on the disk and to be in sliding contact with the inner wall of the perforated cylinder 5 at the tip of the knife arm 9.
Fix it with a slight tilt . In the outer frame 3, columns 3a are erected at equal intervals on a frame bottom plate 4, and mounting rings 3b are mounted on the columns 3a.
The lower part of the frustoconical lid 11 is brought into contact with the attachment ring 3b, and is fixed by tightening with a cap nut 12. An inlet 13 for seaweed is formed in the center of the lid 11. In the figure, 14 is a discharge port provided on one side of the tank bottom plate 1, 15 is a motor having an output shaft connected by a rotating shaft 7 and a coupler 16, and 17 is a handle of a cap nut 12.

[0008] In the above embodiment, the mixture of seaweed and water from seaweed inlet port 13 as indicated by an arrow 18, Ho pump
When the rotary shaft 7 is rotated while being pressure-fed through the roller 25, the disk 8 fixed to the rotary shaft 7 via the boss 8a rotates, so that the seaweed on the disk 8 receives a centrifugal force and is indicated by an arrow 19 ,
The holes 20 and 2 of the perforated cylinder 5 move radially like 19
It is pushed out from 0 as shown by arrow 21. On the other hand, when the disk 8 is rotated, the knife arm 9 formed integrally therewith is rotated.
Since it also rotates in the same direction, the knife blade 10 moves at high speed while slidingly contacting the inner wall of the perforated cylinder 5 as shown by the arrow 22, and cuts the seaweed. The rotation of the rotary shaft 7 in the above is, for example, 80
It can be rotated at 0 rpm to 3200 rpm, and the rotation speed can be changed. In the above, the inner wall of the porous cylinder 5
The knives 10 that come into sliding contact with it are both inclined,
Spacer 26 is inserted under the boss 8a of the
The knife 10 to the inner wall of the perforated cylinder 5 by changing
It is possible to make sliding contact easily and closely.

The seaweed cut as described above is extruded from the through holes 20, 20 of the perforated cylinder 5, passes through the outer tank 2 as shown by an arrow 23, and then from the discharge port 14 as shown by an arrow 24. Move to the process.

In the above embodiment, the knife arm 9 is replaced by 4
Although the present, may be be used at regular intervals in a plurality of, the number no restriction.

[0011]

According to the present invention, since the mixture of seaweed and water is pumped and centrifugal force is applied, the seaweed is pushed out of the perforated cylinder and cut by the rotating cutting knife, so that the seaweed is sent. It has the effect that the crushing force does not work against seaweed when entering, extruding and cutting. Therefore, as compared with the conventional seaweed cutting machine, there is an effect that there is no fear that the quality of the product is deteriorated due to the high-pressure alteration or the yield is decreased due to the crushing. Also, the perforated cylinder is tapered and a knife
Adjusting the height of the knife boss as it is tilted accordingly
By doing so, the knife and the inner wall of the perforated cylinder can easily contact
There is an effect that can be made.
