Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to equipment for slaughtering and dissecting Ti birds, and in particular to a device for removing the groin joints of two birds that have been slaughtered, haired, and internal organs removed. 111.

Conventional technology To remove the groin joint of a conventionally eaten poultry, hang the bird by its neck on a hanger, grasp the left and right thighs with your hands, and insert your finger into the joint of the crotch root from the groin side. The left and right membranes were simultaneously inverted about 180 degrees from the ventral side to the dorsal side.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, the growth status of edible birds differs depending on individual differences from birth and rearing conditions of production light, etc., and there are variations in bone structure, fleshiness, etc. However, it is difficult to reliably grip the crotch of a poultry bird, and when the crotch is rotated, the crotch may come off or come off from the gripping part, and the bone may be broken.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a device that can reliably and efficiently disarticulate the groin of a food-producing bird.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a drive plate that engages with and rotates a trolley chain that transports the neck of a poultry, and rotates the drive plate. A freely supported vertical shaft is fixed on the floor, a wheel upper and a wheel lower are rotatably connected to the shaft by a vertical guide rod and rotate concentrically, and air is injected into the vertical guide rod. Two guide blocks are provided vertically and vertically movably, and a backrest is provided so as to be tiltable facing the bird through a slidable horizontal guide rod that is perpendicular to the upper guide block. A gripping fitting is provided so as to be tiltable via two freely movable horizontal guide rods, and rollers are rotatably provided below the end of each of the movable horizontal guide rods and on the upper side surface of the lower guide block, and the shaft A cam drum is provided around which a variable angle rail is arranged, and the roller is guided by the variable angle rail.

Function: The roller rotates vertically and backwards and forwards according to the shape of the variable angle rail arranged on the cam drum, so that the backrest is first tilted, and then the gripping bracket is tilted and the gripping bracket is lowered to feed the bird. When approached, the thigh of the chicken is inside the gripping metal fitting, and by rotating the gripping metal fitting, the hip joint of the chicken can be removed.

Further, since the tip of the gripping metal fitting is formed into a C shape, it is possible to reliably handle chicken peaches with large size variations.

A cam drum 34 is provided around the shaft 1, and a circumferential C-shaped retaining ring 35.36 fixed to the intermediate portion of the shaft 1 and the inner peripheral surface of the cam drum 34 are connected by a connecting member 37.38 and fixed by welding. do. The variable angle rails 39, 40, 41.
42.43 was established. Variable angle rail 39. /10.41
．． 42 and 43 are made of steel wire with a circular cross section. FIG. 6, FIG. 7, and FIG. 8 show a front view, a left side view, and a right side view of the variable angle rail, respectively. Also, FIG.

10, 11, 12, and 13 are cross-sectional views of A, E, B, C, and D in FIG. 6, respectively. An O-ra provided at the lower end of the guide rod rotates and moves between the variable angle rails.

Next, the operation will be explained with reference to FIGS. 14 to 19.

(1) First, as shown in FIG.
The poultry 44 suspended from the poultry machine 1 is aligned with the position of the poultry butchering device.

(2) As shown in FIG. 15, the wheel upper 2 and wheel lower 3 are rotated by the driving plate 46 which rotates using the power of the trolley conveyor, and the roller 13 provided at the lower end of the guide rod 10 39, the backrest 8 is actuated via the link 12, comes into contact with the back of the food fi 44 suspended from the shackle 21, and is tilted by approximately 30 degrees.

(3) As shown in FIG. 16, as the roller 18 provided at the lower end of the guide rod 15 moves within the angle-changing rail 18, the gripping fitting 22 moves approximately 20 degrees toward the angle a44 side via the universal joint 24. ``It is tilted so that the opening of the metal fittings is near the shoulder opening.

(4) As shown in FIG. 17, the vertical rollers 14 provided on the upper side of the guide block 5 move within the angle-changing rail 40, and the horizontal rollers 18 provided at the lower end of the guide rod 15 move within the angle-changing rail 40. The horizontal roller 19 installed at the lower end of the guide rod 16 moves within the variable angle rail 42, and the horizontal roller 20 provided at the lower end of the guide rod 17 moves within the variable angle rail 43. The gripping metal fitting 22 descends through the universal joint 24 while reducing the tilt angle with the neck, shoulders, and chest on both sides as guides.

(5) As shown in FIG. 18, the vertical rollers 14 stop moving, and the horizontal rollers 18. Horizontal roller 19° Horizontal roller 20 moves.

(6) As shown in FIG. 19, the horizontal roller 18. The horizontal roller 19 stops moving, and only the horizontal roller 20 moves. At this time, the peach of the poultry 44 is contained inside the gripping metal fitting 22, which is attached to the guide rod 17 via the link 30. The rack 28 slides due to the movement of the horizontal roller 20 and rotates the pinion 25 attached to the lower end of the gripping fitting 22. Gripping bracket 22 that grips the peach
By rotating about 180 degrees, the interlocking joint will come off. In addition,
As shown in FIG. 1, the ratio of the lengths of the links 32, 33 and the links 30 is set to 1:3 to 1:4, so that the rack 28 can be slid with a small force based on the principle of leverage.

(7) Remove the backrest 8 by moving the rollers 13.

FIG. 20 shows the cycles (1) to (6) above.

A suitable shape of the gripping metal fitting 22 is a rod having a circular cross section with the tip formed in a C-hair shape, as shown in FIG. When the gripping bracket 22 rotates approximately 180 degrees, the positional relationship between the thigh of the chicken 44 and the gripping bracket 22 changes, but the thigh does not come off or come off from the gripping bracket 22, and without breaking the bone. ! The center of rotation where it is easy to remove the first section is around the buttocks (
(near the mark ◎ in the diagram), and the hip joint comes off at 10.
After opening from 0° to 160°, it is necessary to shape the gripping fitting 22 so that its center of rotation is near the O mark. The shape of such a gripping metal fitting 22 is suitably a C-hair shape, and its dimensions are 1-1 times larger than the size of the thigh of a typical chicken 44.
1, J22, a-(1,5-4)11 b-(0,6-2.5)11 cm (1,1-3.0>12 d-(0,1-0.7) c Also, d is for gradually changing the rotation fulcrum of the peach,
C The hair shape must be open from the center.

The above a-d dimensions vary depending on the size of the bird, but for medium-sized and large-sized birds, a = 71 mn+, b = 5
5au++, cm 5211110. d=2
61m is suitable.

By moving the two gripping fittings 22 using the poultry's body as a guide, differences in the shape and posture of the poultry can be accommodated, and problems in handling objects of uncertain dimensions can be solved.

Note that the descending distance of the gripping metal fitting 22 varies depending on the size of the bird to be eaten, but is 120 to 250 m+, and the hip joint comes off when a rotational moment of 20 to 70 k (1/C-) is applied.

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to securely grip the thighs of poultry, which have large variations in size, with the gripping metal fittings, and to prevent the thighs from falling out or coming off the gripping metal fittings, and to avoid breaking bones. The hip joint can be removed with little force without
Traditional manual tasks will be automated and efficiency will be improved.
