Meat pressing means for automatic meat cutting machine {Pressing apparatus for meat in automatic cutting device}

The present invention relates to a meat pressurizing means for an automatic meat cutting machine, and more particularly, pressurizes, firmly fixes, and It relates to a meat pressurizing means for an automatic meat cutting machine configured to automatically release a pressurized state.

In general, meat (肉類: mainly refers to beef, pork, etc., and is expressed as 'meat' in the present invention) used as meat is cut into certain sizes according to food use.

Most of the meat provided as meat is supplied to wholesalers or retailers after slaughtering by professional butchers, and meat wholesalers or retailers separate meat and bones according to the part of the meat, and the separated meat and bones are again of a certain size. After being cut and stored, it is sold by cutting into various sizes according to the needs of consumers at the time of sale.

Since such meat is bulky and difficult to cut with a general kitchen knife or poultry cutter due to its large volume and thick flesh and bones, the cutting operation is performed using a meat cutter for meat.

However, most meat cutters for meat that are used in the past have saw blades installed vertically and perform up and down reciprocating motion or cutting to an appropriate size while holding and pushing the meat to be cut with both hands toward the saw blade that rotates. did

However, such a conventional meat cutter for meat using a vertical saw blade or a rotary saw blade works because the operator performs the cutting operation while turning the direction of the meat input according to the shape of the meat (a state in which meat is attached to the bone). It was difficult and the risk of safety accidents was high.

In addition, in the case of relatively bulky beef and pork, the shape of the meat is varied depending on its location, such as the neck, back, ribs, and legs. However, the cutting work had to be carried out in a tense state because careful attention was required to prevent safety accidents during cutting.

In particular, bulky body parts can be easily cut using a vertical saw blade or rotary saw blade, but rounded parts such as neck bones cannot be cut with a cutter equipped with a vertical or rotary saw blade. In this case, the cutting work is very difficult due to the non-uniform shape of the meat, and when cut by an unskilled person, the shape of the meat is cut in various ways, so the marketability is poor.

In order to solve the various problems that occur during the conventional meat cutting work, the present inventor developed a “meat neck bone cutting machine” that considers the safety of workers while efficiently cutting the neck bones of meat made in a special shape, and applied for a patent (No. 10- 2020-48664, 2020.04.22).

This prior invention of the present applicant, “meat neck bone cutting machine” was convenient for use in relatively small meat processing establishments, but the need to separately perform the first and second cutting operations was raised when the neck bones were attached to the wings. .

Therefore, the present inventor further improves the present applicant's source invention so that it can be efficiently used in a large-scale meat processing business, and in particular, when a certain part is attached to another part, the primary cutting operation for each part An automatic cutting machine with an automatic moving system configured so that the second and second cutting operations can be performed in sequence was developed. Thus, I came up with this design.
