The longitudinal ice feeding belt 50 is mounted on the transverse ice feeding rack 51. The tightening part 3 and the ice cube slot 4 are fixed side by side on the control system cabinet 1, wherein the cutter 2 is placed in the middle of the abutting part 3 and the ice cube slot 4. When the longitudinal ice feeding belt 50 moves to the horizontal transfer ice When the longitudinal ice feeding belt 51 is at the leftmost position of the rack 51, the downstream end of the longitudinal ice feeding belt 51 is facing the abutting member 3, when the longitudinal ice feeding belt 50 moves to the rightmost position of the transverse ice feeding rack 51, the longitudinal ice feeding belt 50 The downstream end is facing the ice cube slot 4 .

In this embodiment, the longitudinal ice feeding belt 50 includes a speed reducer 501, a transmission frame 502, a transmission belt 503, a left baffle 504, a right alignment plate 505 and an alignment cylinder 506. The transmission frame 502 is composed of two aluminum and The two rotating shafts are combined into a rectangular frame, the transmission belt 503 is stretched between the two rotating shafts, and then the reducer 501 drives one of the rotating shafts to rotate, then the transmission 503 belt is driven by the reducer 501 on the transmission frame 502. There is a bottom plate fixed between the other two aluminum materials, and the bottom plate is installed on the transverse ice rack 51, so that the entire longitudinal ice belt 50 can move left and right under the drive of the transverse ice rack 51. The baffle 504 and the right alignment plate 505 are respectively fixed on the left and right sides of the transmission frame 502 along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 503, and the alignment cylinder 506 is fixed on the transmission frame 502 on the side away from the conveyor belt 503, and is in the right direction. The cylinder shaft of the positioning cylinder 506 is connected to the right positioning plate 505 , and when the positioning cylinder 506 performs work, the right positioning plate 505 is driven to move toward the left baffle plate 504 . The ice cubes or ice strips to be cut are placed on the conveyor belt 503, and the alignment cylinder 506 drives the right alignment plate 505 to move toward the left baffle plate 504, so that the ice cubes or ice strips can be placed on the left baffle plate 504 and the right alignment plate 504. The plates 505 are arranged neatly so that the ice strips or ice cubes are perpendicular to the cutting blade 20 of the cutter 2, so that the processed ice strips or small square ice cubes can be cut with regular shapes. Then, in order to ensure that the ice cubes or ice strips will not fall off the side of the conveyor belt 503 because the length is too short, the left baffle 504 is substantially the same length as the conveyor belt 503 . The left and right of the right alignment plate 505 only needs to maintain the verticality of the ice cube or ice bar when the ice strip or ice cube is about to reach the cutting point. Therefore, the length of the right alignment plate 505 is only about three times wider than the width of the alignment cylinder block 506. This length is designed flexibly to ensure that it can be aligned and cut before cutting under the drive of the alignment cylinder 506. Press the ice sticks or ice cubes tightly.

The other end is connected to the lower bottom surface of the transmission frame 502 . In addition, the sliding block 512 is connected to the transverse guide rail group 511 , and the transmission frame 502 is also connected to the sliding block 512 at the same time. When the traverse driving cylinder 513 is driven, its cylinder shaft drives the longitudinal ice feeding belt 50 to move laterally through the cylinder connecting block 514. The pressure of the ice belt 50 is distributed to the transverse guide rail group 511, and the movement of the slider 512 and the transfer rack 502 acts as a driven force to drive the entire longitudinal ice belt 50 to move, so that the longitudinal ice belt 50 and the transverse ice rack 51 cooperate to operate. Taking the cutting of "ice strips" as an example, when the conveyor belt 503 transports the ice strips 7 to the position of the abutting member 3, and after the to-be-cut ends of several ice strips 7 are aligned, the right alignment plate 505 pushes all the side-by-side ice strips. 7 Press tightly to ensure that the rear section of the ice strip 7 is also neatly arranged. Afterwards, the ice rack 51 is moved laterally to move the longitudinal ice belt 50 from the abutting member 3 to the direction of the ice cube outlet 4 laterally, and the middle ice strip 7 will pass through the fixed cutter blades side by side, so that the slices of the cutter 2 are cut. At 20, the ice bar 7 is cut into small square ice cubes in turn, and the small square ice cubes fall into the ice cube outlet slot 4, and finally fall into the canning box.

Preferably, the ice cutter of this design is a pneumatic type. The air supply lines of each cylinder should be reasonably arranged, and the lines of other electrical components should be arranged in an orderly manner, so as to ensure the smooth operation of the ice cutter. The towline slot is used to place the towline, the wires and air supply pipes are threaded in the towline, and other electrical components can be hung on the transmission rack.

When the pressing cylinder 61 performs work, the fixed beam 60 does not move, and the moving beam 62 moves downward, thereby pressing the ice strips or ice cubes. It can also be installed in reverse, and the cylinder body of the pressing cylinder 61 is fixed on the fixed beam 60 above. When the cylinder shaft expands and contracts, it drives the lower moving beam 62 to press down.

In this embodiment, the lowest height at which the moving beam 62 descends is higher than the upper planes of the left baffle 504 and the right alignment plate 505 , and the moving beam 62 is also provided with several detachably connected height-raising blocks. The length of the heightening block is shorter than the separation distance between the left baffle 504 and the right alignment plate 505 . In this design, generally, 60×60×700mm ice bars or ice cubes of the same thickness can be placed on the platform of the conveyor belt 503. When reprocessing, two layers of ice cubes can be placed on top of each other. If the thickness is not as high as the height of the left baffle 504, then after the moving beam 62 is lowered, the ice strip cannot be pressed, so a heightening block should be added to assist the pressing. However, when two layers of ice strips or ice cubes are placed, the height is sufficient for the moving beam 62 to be pressed tightly, so there is no need to install extra heightening pads.
