Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial field of application) The present invention is a slicer that can make a large amount of continuous diagonal slices of sushi, sashimi, fillets, etc., making post-slice processing extremely easy and easy to operate. It is about.

(Prior art) Generally, sushi, sashimi, etc. are cut diagonally from various materials such as squid and tuna, but it requires considerable skill to cut them diagonally with a knife to maintain a certain angle while keeping the same thickness. However, especially when it is necessary to judge a large amount of ingredients (for example, a factory that produces sushi material for a large-scale sushi chain), a large number of people, that is, cooks are required, and the cooks are each skilled in diagonal cutting. I needed to have the skills.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) Various automatic slicers for obliquely slicing cooking ingredients such as salmon have been devised, but the sliding movement (1 circle) of the rotary blade is troublesome and the mechanism concerned becomes complicated. However, there are various problems such as the fact that a large amount of ingredients cannot be sliced in a short time, and there is no optimum slicer that can cook many squid sushi items, sashimi etc. for commercial use. Is.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and can efficiently cut a large amount of cooking material diagonally by efficiently moving a rotary blade (cutter), and can also reduce the inclination angle and cutting thickness of the rotary blade. It can be freely set and operated, the material can be accurately delivered to the rotary blade position, and the material after slicing can be carried out neatly and easily processed.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a slicer that is very easy to manually operate for slicing work and that allows even a beginner to easily make evenly cut sushi pieces and the like.

(Means for Solving Problems) The gist of the present invention for achieving the above-mentioned object is to convey a food to be sliced in parallel to the orbital position of a rotary blade, to convey a sliced food after slicing. Carrying out conveyor to carry out, each of the rectangular fixed cooking table located between the two conveyors and abutting the blade edge of the rotary blade to slice the food is arranged in the slicer body, and the carrying conveyor uses a pulse motor as a driving source. An air cylinder that has a slide part that is longer than the conveyor width in the left-right direction is installed in the slicer body so that the angle of the sliced food is adjustable, and the slice part can be moved to the left and right by the slide part of the air cylinder. The sliced portion is held so that it can slide in the direction, and the cutting edge of the rotary blade of the slicing portion is formed in a state of being located on the fixed cooking table, The unit uses a step motor as a drive source and is equipped with changeover switches for switching rotations at both ends of the slide unit so that the rotary blade is reversed every slide in one direction. It is a slicer characterized by being linked so that it slides in.

(Operation) As described above, the slicer of the present invention adjusts the angle of the air cylinder arranged in the slicer body to adjust the angle of the slice portion held by the slide portion of the air cylinder.
The angle of the rotary blade at the tip of the slicing part with respect to the fixed cooking table, that is, the slicing angle is set. Next, set the feed amount (feed length) for one movement of the transport conveyor (t for sin θ when the slice angle is θ and the slice thickness is t), and the time for the slice section to move left and right in one direction. Set the pulse motor so that the transport conveyor stops only by the amount. Then, the conveyer, the carry-out conveyer, the air cylinder, and the rotary blade of the slicing section are each actuated, and if the food to be sliced is placed side by side on the conveyer, it is conveyed to the fixed cooking table in front of the conveyer while repeating the movement stop, at this point. At the time (when the conveyor is stopped), the slicing part slides in one direction on the slide part of the air cylinder, and the food to be sliced can be sliced by the rotary blade. When the slicing section slides to the end of the sliding section, the changeover switch operates to reverse the output shaft of the step motor and the rotary blade rotates counterclockwise, and the pulse motor of the conveyor conveys the food to be sliced for the length of the feed. Stop once. Next, the slicing section is for slicing the food to be sliced in a stopped state while sliding in the opposite direction to the front, and can be sequentially sliced in the same process below, of course, at a set angle and a constant thickness. Although it is to slice, since it is performed by sliding movement of the slicing part only in the left-right direction and forward rotation and inversion of the rotary blade, useless movement of the rotary blade (for example, after slicing by sliding the rotary blade in one direction, Once the rotary blade is moved upward, it is slid in the opposite direction from the previous position to position it above the start position, and then the rotary blade is lowered to return the rotary blade to the start position. There is no movement of the rotary blade) and extremely efficient food slicing can be performed,
You can slice a large amount of various foods with speedy (high speed). The food sliced on the stationary cooktop is automatically placed on the carry-out conveyor in front of the cooktop (set to a speed compatible with the carry-in speed of the carry-in conveyor) while being pushed out from behind, and the sliced food is carried by the carry-out sun bear. Since they are delivered neatly to the front of the conveyor, the worker only needs to collect them and the post-slicing process can be performed easily. Also, as machine operations, rotary blade angle adjustment settings, feed-in conveyor feed amount (feed length)
Anyone can easily use the setting, placing the food on the carry-in conveyor and processing the food after slicing.

(Effect of the Invention) As described above, according to the present invention, the rotary blade is slid efficiently (moved in the left-right direction) and the rotation of the blade is changed in each direction, whereby the slice is sequentially sliced in each direction. Therefore, there is a marked difference in processing capacity compared to the conventional slicer, and it is possible to cook a large amount and at high speed. In addition, the slice angle and cutting thickness can be easily set by digital setting and handle operation.
If the food to be sliced is placed on the carry-in conveyor, it will be automatically sliced according to the set conditions, and the food after slicing will be carried out in a neat state, so post-processing is easy and anyone can handle it easily. It has a great effect of being able to produce a sliced food having a uniform quality, and its commercial value is extremely high.
