Description

食品坯材之裁斷方法及裝置 Method and device for cutting food material

本發明是關於將扁平狀的食品坯材裁斷成如連續之繩索狀、帶狀或棒狀等所示形狀的長形食品坯材之裁斷方法及裝置。更詳細地說，本發明是關於將扁平狀的食品坯材例如往左右方向裁斷成曲折藉此使上述食品坯材裁斷成連續長形的食品坯材之方法及裝置。 The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for cutting a flat food material into a shape of a long food material such as a continuous rope shape, a belt shape or a rod shape. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for cutting a flat food product into a continuously elongated food material by cutting it into a meandering direction, for example, in the left-right direction.

先前，例如若要從大塊的麵團等食品坯材獲得期望重量之小塊食品坯材時，所執行的作業是將上述大塊的食品坯材成形為長帶狀的食品坯材之後再裁斷成所期望的重量(例如參閱專利文獻1、2)。 Previously, for example, when a small piece of food material of a desired weight was to be obtained from a food material such as a large dough, the work was performed by forming the above-mentioned large food material into a long strip of food material and then cutting it. The desired weight is obtained (for example, refer to Patent Documents 1, 2).

[先行技術文獻] [Advanced technical literature] [專利文獻] [Patent Literature]

[專利文獻1]日本特開2001-95468號公報 [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2001-95468

[專利文獻2]國際公開特許WO02/080683 A2 [Patent Document 2] International Publication No. WO02/080683 A2

上述專利文獻1所記載的構成，是一種需將大塊的麵團等投入在料斗內，且在該料斗下側所配備之矩形狀的長開口部具備有切刀裝置的構成。於該構成中，是將經由上述切刀裝置裁斷成大致一定尺寸之指定長度的食品坯材裁斷片落下在往上述開口部之長度方向移動自如的轉送輸送機上。接著，在上述轉送輸送機所轉送之裁斷片的後端側重疊下一個被裁斷之裁斷片的前端側，藉此形成為長的連續食品坯材。 The configuration described in Patent Document 1 is a configuration in which a large-sized dough or the like is required to be placed in a hopper, and a rectangular long opening portion provided on the lower side of the hopper is provided with a cutter device. In this configuration, the food material cutting piece cut into a predetermined length having a predetermined size by the cutter device is dropped onto the transfer conveyor that is movable in the longitudinal direction of the opening. Next, the front end side of the next cut piece is overlapped on the rear end side of the cutting piece transferred by the transfer conveyor, thereby forming a long continuous food material.

上述構成之上述切刀裝置，是所謂的星形切刀，構成為由彼此朝相反方向旋轉的一對旋轉軸所具備之複數的板狀刀片將食品坯材持續裁斷成一定長度且為期望重量的食品坯材。 The above-described cutter device is a so-called star cutter, and is configured such that a plurality of plate-shaped blades provided in a pair of rotating shafts that rotate in opposite directions continuously cut the food material into a predetermined length and a desired weight. Food blanks.

上述專利文獻2所記載的構成，是一種需以料斗之開口部所具備的星形切刀對從料斗內降下之食品坯材進行裁斷的構成。接著，上述星形切刀是構成為交替具備有在一端側具備缺口部的刀片和在另一端側具備缺口部的刀片。因此，當旋轉上述星形切刀來進行食品坯材的裁斷時，就會在下述二種狀態為交替重覆的情況下裁斷，該二種狀態：料斗內的食品坯材和裁斷後之食品坯材的一端側為連接狀態；及料斗內的食品坯材和裁斷後之食品坯材的另一端側為連接狀態。即，於料斗內逐漸下降的食品坯材是會被裁斷成連續之長帶狀態的食品坯材。 The configuration described in the above Patent Document 2 is a configuration in which the food material falling from the hopper is cut by a star cutter provided in the opening of the hopper. Next, the star cutter is configured to alternately include a blade having a notch portion on one end side and a blade having a notch portion on the other end side. Therefore, when the above-mentioned star cutter is rotated to cut the food material, it is cut in the case where the following two states are alternately repeated, the two states: the food material in the hopper and the cut food. One end side of the blank material is in a connected state; and the other end side of the food material in the hopper and the cut food material is in a connected state. That is, the food material which gradually descends in the hopper is a food material which is cut into a continuous long belt state.

即，於先前之使用星形切刀來裁斷食品坯材 以形成連續之長帶狀食品坯材的構成中，當利用星形切刀進行食品坯材的裁斷時及食品坯材到達上述星形切刀的過程中食品坯材都會受到壓力，並且於星形切刀的裁斷時食品坯材也會受到大的壓力。 That is, the previous use of a star cutter to cut the food material In the formation of a continuous long strip-shaped food material, the food material is subjected to pressure during the cutting of the food material by the star cutter and the food material reaches the star cutter, and the star is subjected to pressure. When the cutting knife is cut, the food material will also be subjected to a large pressure.

本發明是為了解決以上所述的問題而為的發 明，課題在於提供一種不用推壓食品坯材全體，能夠抑制要施加在食品坯材的壓力，使扁平狀食品坯材裁斷形成連續的長帶狀食品坯材之方法及裝置。 The present invention is directed to solving the above problems. The object of the present invention is to provide a method and an apparatus for suppressing the pressure applied to a food material without suppressing the pressure of the food material, and cutting the flat food material into a continuous long strip-shaped food material.

為了解決上述課題，本發明具有以下所述的構成。即，本發明是一種將扁平狀食品坯材裁斷成連續之長帶狀食品坯材的食品坯材之裁斷方法，其特徵為，具備：(a)從扁平狀食品坯材的一側緣往另一側緣方向相對性移動切刀來裁斷食品坯材，在接近上述另一側緣的位置以殘留未裁斷部的狀態將上述切刀從上述食品坯材往上方向離開藉此中止裁斷動作的步驟；(b)將上述切刀對上述食品坯材往上述裁斷方向的正交方向相對性移動之後，從上述食品坯材的上述另一側緣往上述一側緣方向進行裁斷，在接近上述一側緣的位置以殘留未裁斷部的狀態將上述切刀從上述食品坯材往上方向離開藉此中止裁斷動作的步驟； (c)將上述切刀對上述食品坯材往上述裁斷方向的正交方向相對性移動的步驟；及(d)將上述(a)步驟至(c)步驟重覆執行適當次數的步驟。 In order to solve the above problems, the present invention has the following configuration.

[發明之實施形態] [Embodiment of the Invention]

以下，使用圖面針對本發明第1實施形態相關之食品坯材裁斷裝置的構成進行說明，不過為了容易理解說明，於此針對主要構成有關的功能及食品坯材的裁斷方法進行說明。 In the following, the configuration of the food material cutting device according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. However, for the sake of easy understanding, the function of the main configuration and the cutting method of the food material are described.

第1圖為本發明第1實施形態相關之食品坯材裁斷裝置的食品坯材之裁斷狀態的變化以概念性、概略性圖示的說明圖，於(A)圖~(F)圖的各圖中，(a)圖為裁斷 狀態的概念性、概略性平面說明圖，(b)圖為其概念性、概略性正面說明圖。 1 is a conceptual and schematic explanatory view showing changes in the cutting state of the food material of the food material cutting device according to the first embodiment of the present invention, and each of (A) to (F) In the figure, (a) is a cut A conceptual and schematic plan view of the state, and (b) a conceptual and schematic front view of the figure.

如第1圖中之概念性、概略性的圖示，本發 明第1實施形態相關之食品坯材裁斷裝置1，具備有將食品坯材3往前後方向(沿著Y軸方向的箭頭符號A方向)搬運的輸送帶5。上述食品坯材3，其為扁平狀的食品坯材，該食品坯材3是以水平狀態直接載置在輸送帶5上。 As shown in the conceptual and schematic diagram in Figure 1, this issue The food material cutting device 1 according to the first embodiment includes a conveyor belt 5 that conveys the food material 3 in the front-rear direction (in the direction of the arrow A in the Y-axis direction). The food material 3 is a flat food material, and the food material 3 is directly placed on the conveyor belt 5 in a horizontal state.

於上述輸送帶5的搬運端附近，具備有將上 述食品坯材3往左右方向(X軸方向)裁斷用的切刀7，該切刀7構成為往左右方向往返移動自如並且往上下方向(Z軸方向)移動自如。接著，輸送帶5又具備有光學感測器9A、9B以做為上述切刀7要往左右方向移動對上述食品坯材3裁斷時，比上述切刀7先行對上述食品坯材3之左右的側緣部進行檢測的坯材側緣檢測手段。另外，當光學感測器構成為水平旋繞形態時，是可針對切刀7移動的方向將1個光學感測器旋繞定位在先行位置。 In the vicinity of the carrying end of the conveyor belt 5, there is a In the cutting tool 7 for cutting the food material 3 in the left-right direction (X-axis direction), the cutter 7 is configured to be reciprocable in the left-right direction and movable in the vertical direction (Z-axis direction). Next, the conveyor belt 5 is further provided with optical sensors 9A and 9B as the cutters 7 to be moved in the left-right direction to cut the food material 3, and the cutters 7 are advanced to the left and right of the food material 3 The side edge detecting means for detecting the side edge portion. Further, when the optical sensor is configured in a horizontally wound configuration, one optical sensor can be wound around the leading position in the direction in which the cutter 7 moves.

於上述輸送帶5的搬運端下側，具備有轉送 帶11。該轉送帶11，其作用在於將經由上述切刀7裁斷成左右方向長的繩索狀、帶狀、棒狀等之長形食品坯材(長帶狀食品坯材)4轉送至要執行秤重或裁斷等的下一個步驟。於本實施例中，上述轉送帶11是配備成沿著對上述輸送帶5之搬運方向(箭頭符號A方向)成交叉的方向(正交的方向)即左右方向。接著，上述轉送帶11是將長帶狀食品坯材3A往箭頭符號B方向搬運。 On the lower side of the conveying end of the conveyor belt 5, there is a transfer With 11. The transfer belt 11 is configured to transfer an elongated food material (long strip food material) 4 which is cut into a rope shape, a belt shape, a rod shape or the like which is long in the left-right direction by the cutter 7 to be subjected to weighing Or the next step of cutting, etc. In the present embodiment, the transfer belt 11 is disposed in a direction (orthogonal direction) in which the conveyance direction (arrow direction A direction) of the conveyor belt 5 intersects, that is, the left-right direction. Next, the transfer belt 11 conveys the long strip-shaped food material 3A in the direction of the arrow symbol B.

上述輸送帶5的搬運作用或轉送帶11的轉送 作用，例如是利用伺服馬達(第1圖中省略圖示)的作用執行，其輸送動作、轉送動作例如是於電腦等適當的控制裝置13之控制下予以適當的自由控制。此外，上述切刀7之往左右方向的移動，例如是利用由伺服馬達正反轉驅動的環形皮帶或滾珠螺桿機構或流體壓缸等左右方向動作機構(第1圖中省略圖示)執行。接著，上述切刀7的上下移動，例如是利用流體壓缸等上下移動用致動器(第1圖中省略圖示)執行。該切刀7之往左右方向的移動及上下移動的動作，是由上述控制裝置13控制。 The conveying action of the conveyor belt 5 or the transfer of the transfer belt 11 The operation is performed, for example, by the action of a servo motor (not shown in Fig. 1), and the conveyance operation and the transfer operation are appropriately controlled under the control of an appropriate control device 13 such as a computer. In addition, the movement of the cutter 7 in the left-right direction is performed by, for example, an endless belt driven by a servo motor in a forward/reverse direction, a ball screw mechanism, or a fluid pressure cylinder or the like in a left-right direction operation mechanism (not shown in the first drawing). Then, the vertical movement of the cutter 7 is performed by, for example, an actuator for moving up and down such as a fluid pressure cylinder (not shown in the first drawing). The movement of the cutter 7 in the left-right direction and the movement of the vertical movement are controlled by the control device 13.

於以上所述的構成中，是構成為將食品坯材3 載置在輸送帶5上，於控制裝置13的控制下驅動該輸送帶5。接著，當將上述食品坯材3往Y軸前方向(箭頭符號A方向)搬運時，由位於上述輸送帶5之搬運端還稍微上游側(後側)之指定位置所配備的前端緣檢測手段(光學感測器)15對食品坯材3的前端緣進行檢測。當上述光學感測器15檢測出食品坯材3的前端緣時，上述輸送帶5就會將食品坯材3從上述切刀7之裁斷位置往前方向搬運達到事先已設定好的裁斷寬度W，於此停止輸送帶5的搬運動作。 In the above configuration, the food material 3 is configured The conveyor belt 5 is mounted on the conveyor belt 5 and driven under the control of the control unit 13. Next, when the food material material 3 is conveyed in the Y-axis front direction (arrow symbol A direction), the front end edge detecting means provided at a predetermined position on the upstream side (rear side) of the conveyance end of the conveyor belt 5 is provided. (Optical sensor) 15 detects the leading edge of the food material 3 . When the optical sensor 15 detects the leading edge of the food material 3, the conveyor belt 5 carries the food material 3 forward from the cutting position of the cutter 7 to the previously set cutting width W. Here, the conveying operation of the conveyor belt 5 is stopped.

即，如上述所示當由光學感測器15檢測出食 品坯材3的前端緣時，是由上述控制裝置13所具備的運算手段17(參閱第2圖)根據上述切刀7之裁斷位置和上述光學感測器15之前後方向的位置關係及事先已設定好的 裁斷寬度W來運算出針對上述裁斷位置需往前方向搬運食品坯材3的搬運量。接著，根據上述運算手段17的運算結果，上述輸送帶5旋轉用之Y軸馬達19的旋轉就會受到控制，從裁斷位置將食品坯材3的前端緣搬運達到裁斷寬度W後就停止搬運。 That is, when the food is detected by the optical sensor 15 as described above, In the front end edge of the product material 3, the calculation means 17 (see Fig. 2) provided in the control device 13 is based on the positional relationship between the cutting position of the cutter 7 and the front and rear directions of the optical sensor 15, and Set up The cutting width W is used to calculate the amount of conveyance of the food material 3 to be conveyed in the forward direction with respect to the cutting position. Then, based on the calculation result of the calculation means 17, the rotation of the Y-axis motor 19 for rotating the conveyor belt 5 is controlled, and the leading edge of the food material 3 is conveyed from the cutting position to the cutting width W, and the conveyance is stopped.

如上述所示當狀態為食品坯材3的前端緣從 裁斷位置搬運達到裁斷寬度W的狀態時，就會將停止在左右方向之適當位置狀態下的切刀7下降至裁斷位置且往左右方向移動，藉此執行食品坯材3之前端緣的裁斷。上述切刀7的裁斷位置，由於是在輸送帶5的搬運端附近，因此從食品坯材3往左右方向長形裁斷分離的長帶狀食品坯材4A就會因為自重的關係而落下在轉送帶11上。上述轉送帶11，是往上述輸送帶5之搬運方向正交的左右方向(箭頭符號B方向)轉送長帶狀食品坯材4A。 As shown above, when the state is the front end edge of the food material 3 When the cutting position conveyance reaches the cutting width W, the cutter 7 that has stopped at the appropriate position in the left-right direction is lowered to the cutting position and moved in the left-right direction, whereby the cutting of the front edge of the food material 3 is performed. Since the cutting position of the cutter 7 is in the vicinity of the conveyance end of the conveyor belt 5, the long strip-shaped food material 4A which is cut and separated from the food material 3 in the left-right direction is dropped due to its own weight. Belt 11 on. The transfer belt 11 transfers the long strip-shaped food material 4A in the left-right direction (arrow direction B direction) orthogonal to the conveyance direction of the conveyance belt 5.

不過，上述切刀7的裁斷方向，如第1(A)圖 所示，當其與上述轉送帶11的轉送方向為同一方向時是屬於去程移動的裁斷，上述切刀7的移動速度(裁斷速度)是對應上述轉送帶11之轉送速度的適當速度，例如約為一半的速度。基於此，自重落下在上述轉送帶11上的長帶狀食品坯材4A就不會成為折疊狀態。 However, the cutting direction of the above cutter 7 is as shown in Fig. 1(A). As shown in the figure, when it is in the same direction as the transfer direction of the transfer belt 11, it is a cut that belongs to the outward movement, and the moving speed (cutting speed) of the cutter 7 is an appropriate speed corresponding to the transfer speed of the transfer belt 11, for example About half the speed. Based on this, the long strip-shaped food material 4A dropped on the transfer belt 11 by its own weight does not become in a folded state.

如上述所示，於上述切刀7往箭頭符號B方 向(右方向)移動裁斷食品坯材3時(去程移動的裁斷時)，當比上述切刀7先行的光學感測器9A檢測出食品坯材3的右側緣時，就會上述控制裝置13的控制下使切刀7上 昇在距離右側緣的設定位置。接著，切刀7會留下未裁斷部而移動至偏離食品坯材3之右側緣外側的位置。即，在食品坯材3的右側緣附近留下切後剩餘部3B，使食品坯材3和長帶狀食品坯材4A保持成連接狀態。 As shown above, the above cutter 7 is directed to the arrow symbol B. When the food material 3 is cut (in the right direction) (when the cutting of the outward movement is performed), when the optical sensor 9A that is earlier than the cutter 7 detects the right edge of the food material 3, the control device is 13 under the control of the cutter 7 Raise at the set position from the right edge. Next, the cutter 7 leaves the uncut portion and moves to a position deviating from the outer side of the right side edge of the food material 3. That is, the cut remaining portion 3B is left in the vicinity of the right side edge of the food material 3, and the food material 3 and the long strip food material 4A are kept in a connected state.

如上述所示，當切刀7移動至食品坯材3之 右側緣外側時，上述輸送帶5會再度啟動，將食品坯材3搬運達到裁斷寬度W就停止搬運。然後，切刀7就會下降往左方向(箭頭符號B方向的反向)移動(回程移動)，藉此使下一個長帶狀食品坯材4AA裁斷成為與上一個長帶狀食品坯材4A成連接的狀態(連續的狀態)。此時，切刀7的裁斷方向是與上述轉送帶11的轉送方向為反向。基於此，從食品坯材3裁斷分離的長帶狀食品坯材4AA即使因為自重關係而落下在轉送帶11上也不會成為折疊狀態。因此，針對轉送帶11之轉送方向往反向執行食品坯材3的裁斷(回程移動的裁斷)時，是在上述控制裝置13的控制下，以要比往箭頭符號B方向之裁斷速度還高速執行。 As shown above, when the cutter 7 is moved to the food material 3 When the outer side edge is outside, the conveyor belt 5 is restarted, and the food material 3 is conveyed to the cutting width W to stop the conveyance. Then, the cutter 7 is moved downward in the left direction (reverse direction in the direction of the arrow B) (return movement), whereby the next long strip-shaped food material 4AA is cut into the same long strip-shaped food material 4A. The state of the connection (continuous state). At this time, the cutting direction of the cutter 7 is opposite to the transfer direction of the above-described transfer belt 11. Based on this, the long strip-shaped food material 4AA cut off from the food material 3 does not become folded even if it falls on the transfer belt 11 due to its own weight. Therefore, when the cutting of the food material 3 is performed in the reverse direction of the transfer direction of the transfer belt 11 (cutting of the return movement), under the control of the above-described control device 13, the cutting speed is higher than that in the direction of the arrow B. carried out.

當上述切刀7接近食品坯材3的左側緣，以 致要比切刀7先行的光學感測器9B檢測出食品坯材3的左側緣時，與右側緣的情況相同，切刀7會在留下做為未裁斷部的切後剩餘部3C之後就上昇。接著，當切刀7往左側緣的左側方移動之後，輸送帶5執行食品坯材3的搬運，且搬運達到裁斷寬度W時，就會再度執行由切刀7往右方向的裁斷。 When the cutter 7 is close to the left edge of the food material 3, When the optical sensor 9B which is earlier than the cutter 7 detects the left edge of the food material 3, as in the case of the right edge, the cutter 7 will leave the remaining portion 3C as the uncut portion. rise. Next, when the cutter 7 moves to the left side of the left side edge, the conveyance belt 5 carries out the conveyance of the food material 3, and when the conveyance reaches the cutting width W, the cutting of the cutter 7 to the right direction is performed again.

從以上說明所獲得的理解，得知重覆執行輸 送帶5上之扁平狀食品坯材3的裁斷寬度W搬運之同時，交替執行切刀7之食品坯材3左右方向的裁斷，並且在左右兩側緣殘留未裁斷部，藉此就能夠從扁平狀食品坯材3裁斷出連續的長帶狀食品坯材4。 From the understanding gained from the above description, we know that repeat execution The cutting width W of the flat food material 3 on the belt 5 is conveyed, and the cutting of the food material 3 of the cutter 7 in the left-right direction is alternately performed, and the uncut portions are left on the left and right sides, thereby enabling The flat food material 3 cuts out a continuous long strip of food material 4 .

就本發明第1實施形態相關的食品坯材裁斷 裝置1而言，從食品坯材3裁斷分離的長帶狀食品坯材4是會從上述輸送帶5的搬運端因為自重的關係而落下在轉送帶11上，因此就會與轉送帶11的轉送方向(箭頭符號B方向)有所關連將輸送帶5及切刀7的動作控制成能夠讓食品坯材3的最終裁斷位置位於食品坯材3之右側緣側即位於轉送帶11的轉送方向下游側。 Cutting of food material according to the first embodiment of the present invention In the apparatus 1, the long strip-shaped food material 4 cut and separated from the food material 3 is dropped from the conveyance end of the conveyor belt 5 on the transfer belt 11 due to its own weight, and thus the transfer belt 11 is used. The transfer direction (arrow direction B direction) is controlled to control the operation of the conveyor belt 5 and the cutter 7 so that the final cutting position of the food material 3 is located on the right side edge side of the food material 3, that is, in the transfer direction of the transfer belt 11. Downstream side.

在上述轉送帶11的側方，於上述前端緣檢測 手段15之後方(輸送帶11的搬運上游側)的指定位置配備有後端緣檢測手段(光學感測器)21。上述光學感測器21是對上述轉送帶11所要搬運之上述食品坯材3的有無進行檢測。如上述所示，食品坯材3是由上述切刀7裁斷成為連續的長帶狀食品坯材4，重覆執行切刀7之裁斷動作的同時使食品坯材3在上述輸送帶5上搬運。接著，當上述光學感測器21檢測出上述食品坯材3的後端緣通過時，就會由上述運算手段17運算出上述切刀7之下次以後的裁斷次數及新的裁斷寬度WA。 On the side of the above-mentioned transfer belt 11, the front end edge is detected A rear end edge detecting means (optical sensor) 21 is provided at a predetermined position after the means 15 (the upstream side of the conveyance of the conveyor belt 11). The optical sensor 21 detects the presence or absence of the food material 3 to be transported by the transfer belt 11. As described above, the food material 3 is cut into a continuous long strip-shaped food material 4 by the cutter 7, and the cutting operation of the cutter 7 is repeatedly performed, and the food material 3 is conveyed on the conveyor belt 5. . Next, when the optical sensor 21 detects that the trailing edge of the food material 3 has passed, the calculation means 17 calculates the number of times of cutting of the cutter 7 and the new cutting width WA.

第3圖為表示在光學感測器21檢測出食品坯 材3的後端緣通過之後，長帶狀食品坯材4暫時性停止在 從上次之停止位置搬運達到裁斷寬度W的位置時的狀態。從上述切刀7的裁斷位置7C至上述光學感測器21為止的距離為L，且從該光學感測器21至食品坯材3之後端緣為止的距離為L1時，則從上述裁斷位置7C至後端緣為止的長度就以(L-L1)表示。另外，上述距離L1，是由上述運算手段17根據食品坯材3從上次的停止位置至光學感測器21檢測出後端緣(檢測出已經沒有食品坯材3)之時間點為止的搬運距離資訊所運算出來之針對裁斷寬度W份量的搬運距離其剩餘的搬運距離。 Figure 3 is a diagram showing the detection of a food blank at the optical sensor 21. After the trailing edge of the material 3 passes, the long strip of food material 4 temporarily stops at The state when the position of the cutting width W is reached from the last stop position. When the distance from the cutting position 7C of the cutter 7 to the optical sensor 21 is L, and the distance from the optical sensor 21 to the rear edge of the food material 3 is L1, the cutting position is from the above cutting position. The length from 7C to the trailing edge is indicated by (L-L1). Further, the distance L1 is conveyed by the calculation means 17 based on the time point from the previous stop position of the food material 3 to the detection of the trailing edge of the optical sensor 21 (the food material 3 is not detected). The distance traveled by the distance information calculated by the information for the cutting width W.

即，從上述裁斷位置7C至後端緣為止之食品 坯材3的剩餘尺寸(L-L1)，是由剩餘尺寸運算手段23根據上述距離L、L1所運算出來的值。另外，上述距離L1，也可是在光學感測器21檢測出後端緣之後對上述食品坯材3停止為止的搬運距離進行測量，但若是在光學感測器21檢測出後端緣的時間點就進行運算則會提昇生產性。 That is, the food from the cutting position 7C to the rear end edge The remaining size (L-L1) of the blank 3 is a value calculated by the remaining size calculating means 23 based on the above-described distances L and L1. Further, the distance L1 may be a measurement of the conveyance distance until the food material 3 is stopped after the optical sensor 21 detects the trailing edge, but the time when the optical sensor 21 detects the trailing edge Performing calculations will increase productivity.

接著，於裁斷次數運算手段25，是根據剩餘 尺寸(L-L1)和裁斷寬度W執行(L-L1)/W的運算，並算出食品坯材3之剩餘的裁斷次數N(整數)。根據該算出結果和現在的切刀7位置資訊，對食品坯材3之最後的裁斷結束時切刀7究竟要在食品坯材3的左側緣附近或右側緣附近結束裁斷動作進行運算。此外，還算出在最後所要裁斷出來之包括後端緣的食品坯材3的寬度R。 Next, the cutting number calculation means 25 is based on the remaining The size (L-L1) and the cutting width W are calculated by (L-L1)/W, and the remaining number of cuts N (integer) of the food material 3 is calculated. Based on the calculation result and the current position information of the cutter 7, when the last cutting of the food material 3 is completed, the cutter 7 calculates the cutting operation in the vicinity of the left side edge or the right side edge of the food material 3. In addition, the width R of the food material 3 including the trailing edge at the end is also calculated.

於此，針對上述算出來的結果為切刀7往箭 頭符號B方向(去程移動方向)裁斷食品坯材3且在食品坯材3的右側緣附近結束裁斷時之新的裁斷寬度WA的運算處理進行說明。由於食品坯材3之最後的寬度R為裁斷坯材寬度W以下，因此與裁斷寬度W相比有時會極端細。 於該情況時，從長帶狀食品坯材4裁斷成指定重量的食品坯材塊就會成為細長的形狀，該細長的形狀對於之後要圓狀成型等並不是好的形狀。基於此，為了抑制從事先設定好的裁斷坯材寬度W產生大的變動，當寬度R比裁斷坯材寬度W的一半還大時，新的裁斷寬度W就是與目前為止相同之裁斷寬度W的值，當寬度R為裁斷坯材寬度W之一半以下時就會根據食品坯材3的剩餘尺寸(L-L1)和裁斷次數N由上述運算手段17對(L-L1)/(N+1)進行運算藉此算出新的裁斷寬度WA來做為應對。另外，該臨界值為例示，對裁斷寬度W之寬度R的比值(比率)也可為70%等其他的比率。 Here, the result calculated as described above is the cutter 7 to the arrow. The calculation processing of the new cutting width WA when the food material 3 is cut in the direction of the head symbol B (outward movement direction) and the cutting is completed near the right edge of the food material 3 will be described. Since the final width R of the food material 3 is equal to or less than the width W of the cut material, it may be extremely thinner than the cutting width W. In this case, the food material block cut into a predetermined weight from the long strip-shaped food material 4 has an elongated shape, and the elongated shape is not a good shape for subsequent round molding or the like. Based on this, in order to suppress a large variation from the width W of the cutting material set in advance, when the width R is larger than half the width W of the blank, the new cutting width W is the same cutting width W as the present. The value, when the width R is one-half or less of the width W of the blank material, is based on the remaining size (L-L1) of the food material 3 and the number N of cuts by the above-mentioned operation means 17 (L-L1) / (N+1) The calculation is performed to calculate the new cutting width WA as a response. Further, the critical value is exemplified, and the ratio (ratio) to the width R of the cutting width W may be other ratios such as 70%.

此外，當上述算出來的結果為切刀7往箭頭 符號B相反方向(回程移動方向)裁斷食品坯材3且在食品坯材3的左側緣附近結束裁斷時，就將裁斷次數N設定變更成為多1次或少1次，根據新的裁斷次數算出新的裁斷寬度WA。此時例如：當食品坯材3之最後的寬度R比裁斷坯材寬度W的一半還大時，就將裁斷次數N設定成多1次變更成為新的裁斷次數(N+1)，根據食品坯材3的剩餘尺寸(L-L1)和新的裁斷次數(N+1)由上述運算手段17對(L-L1)/(N+2)進行運算藉此算出新的裁斷寬度WA。 此外，當食品坯材3之最後的寬度R為裁斷坯材寬度W的一半以下時，就將裁斷次數N設定成少1次變更成為新的裁斷次數(N-1)，根據食品坯材3的剩餘尺寸(L-L1)和新的裁斷次數(N-1)由上述運算手段17對(L-L1)/(N)進行運算藉此算出新的裁斷寬度WA。如此一來，剩餘尺寸(L-L1)的坯材就會被裁斷成為新的裁斷寬度WA之長帶狀食品坯材4。接著，切刀7的裁斷也可控制成為切刀7往箭頭符號B方向(去程移動方向)裁斷食品坯材3且在食品坯材3的右側緣附近結束裁斷。 In addition, when the above calculated result is the cutter 7 to the arrow When the food material 3 is cut in the opposite direction (return movement direction) and the cutting is completed in the vicinity of the left side edge of the food material 3, the number of cutting times N is changed to be one or less times, and is calculated based on the new number of cuttings. The new cutting width is WA. At this time, for example, when the final width R of the food material 3 is larger than half of the width W of the cut material, the number N of cuts is set to be changed one more time to the new number of cuts (N+1), according to the food. The remaining size (L-L1) of the blank 3 and the new number of cuts (N+1) are calculated by the above-described calculation means 17 (L-L1) / (N + 2) to calculate a new cutting width WA. Further, when the final width R of the food material 3 is equal to or less than half of the width W of the cut material, the number N of cuts is set to be changed to a new number of cuts (N-1) one by one, according to the food material 3 The remaining size (L-L1) and the new number of cuts (N-1) are calculated by the above-described arithmetic means 17 (L-L1)/(N) to calculate a new cutting width WA. As a result, the remaining size (L-L1) of the blank material is cut into the new strip-shaped food material 4 of the new cutting width WA. Next, the cutting of the cutter 7 can also control the cutter 7 to cut the food material 3 in the direction of the arrow symbol B (the direction of the outward movement) and finish the cutting in the vicinity of the right edge of the food material 3.

基於此，在食品坯材3的裁斷結束時，即使 狀態為載置在輸送帶5之搬運端附近的食品坯材3之細長的部份落下在轉送帶11上的情況，但是先行裁斷之落下在轉送帶11上的長帶狀食品坯材4也不會成為折疊狀態。 Based on this, even at the end of the cutting of the food material 3, even The state in which the elongated portion of the food material 3 placed near the carrying end of the conveyor belt 5 falls on the transfer belt 11, but the long strip-shaped food material 4 dropped on the transfer belt 11 by cutting first is also Will not be folded.

In this form, the left and right optical sensors 9A and 9B can be omitted. Further, instead of the optical sensors 9A, 9B described above, a sensor in the form of a contact with the food material 3 may be used.

此外，如第6圖所示，也可構成為在上述輸 送帶5的下側，具備有與該輸送帶5之搬運方向為同方向之轉送方向的轉送輸送機11A。於此，當上述轉送輸送機11A的寬度比輸送帶5的寬度還窄時，只要將上述輸送帶5於第6圖中往左右方向往返移動的同時將食品坯材3裁斷成曲折以使從食品坯材3裁斷的長帶狀食品坯材4經常 載置在轉送輸送機11A上即可。另外，於上述轉送輸送機11A的下游端附近具備有裁斷機77A。此外，於轉送輸送機11A的下游側配置有第1、第2秤重輸送機79A、81A，藉此執行所裁斷之小塊坯材4C的秤重。 In addition, as shown in Fig. 6, it can also be configured to The lower side of the feed belt 5 is provided with a transfer conveyor 11A having a transfer direction in the same direction as the conveyance direction of the conveyance belt 5. Here, when the width of the transfer conveyor 11A is narrower than the width of the conveyor belt 5, the food material 3 is cut into a meander as long as the conveyor belt 5 is reciprocated in the left-right direction in FIG. Long strip of food material 4 cut by food material 3 often It is sufficient to mount it on the transfer conveyor 11A. Further, a cutting machine 77A is provided in the vicinity of the downstream end of the above-described transfer conveyor 11A. Further, the first and second weighing conveyors 79A and 81A are disposed on the downstream side of the transfer conveyor 11A, thereby performing weighing of the cut small stock 4C.

然而，上述說明，是以轉送輸送機11A比輸 送帶5還窄，且輸送帶5往左右方向往返動的形態為主旨進行了說明。但是，轉送輸送機11A的寬度也可構成為幾乎和輸送帶5同等寬度，使長帶狀食品坯材4曲折載置在上述轉送輸送機11A上。 However, the above description is based on the transfer conveyor 11A than the loss The form in which the feed belt 5 is also narrow and the conveyor belt 5 reciprocates in the right and left direction has been described. However, the width of the transfer conveyor 11A may be configured to be almost the same width as the conveyor belt 5, and the long strip-shaped food material 4 may be placed on the transfer conveyor 11A in a meandering manner.

其次，針對本發明第2實施形態進行說明。 在說明第2實施形態時，針對與上述之實施形態相同的部份為了避免重覆說明是予以省略，且只針對與第1實施形態不同的部份進行說明。 Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the description of the second embodiment, the same portions as those of the above-described embodiment will be omitted in order to avoid redundancy, and only portions different from the first embodiment will be described.

第2實施形態相關的食品坯材裁斷裝置101， 其與上述實施形態相關的食品坯材裁斷裝置1不同之處為切刀的部份。於上述實施形態相關的食品坯材裁斷裝置1中，切刀7為圓盤狀旋轉切刀或超音波刀，但是於第2實施形態相關的食品坯材裁斷裝置101中是使用卷狀切刀107。 The food material cutting device 101 according to the second embodiment, The food material cutting device 1 according to the above embodiment differs from the portion of the cutter. In the food material cutting device 1 according to the above-described embodiment, the cutter 7 is a disk-shaped rotary cutter or an ultrasonic knife. However, in the food material cutting device 101 according to the second embodiment, a roll cutter is used. 107.

卷狀切刀107，如第8圖所示，其是指在圓筒 狀構造體的外圍面配置有突起成螺旋狀之複數刀片的切刀，於螺旋狀的刀片各個，設有一方的端部為缺口的不裁斷部，且該不裁斷部於彼此相鄰之螺旋狀的刀片是交替配置在右側端部和左側端部(意指第8圖之右側、左側)。 即，第1螺旋狀刀片是在右側端部配置有不裁斷部，該第1螺旋狀刀片所鄰接的第2螺旋狀刀片是在左側端部配置有不裁斷部，以下相鄰之螺旋狀刀片都是同樣交替配置。 a roll cutter 107, as shown in Fig. 8, which refers to the cylinder A cutter having a plurality of blades protruding in a spiral shape is disposed on a peripheral surface of the structural body, and each of the spiral blades is provided with an uncut portion in which one end portion is notched, and the non-cutting portion is adjacent to each other The blades are alternately arranged at the right end and the left end (meaning the right side and the left side of Fig. 8). In other words, the first helical blade has a non-cutting portion disposed at the right end portion, and the second helical blade adjacent to the first helical blade has a non-cutting portion disposed at the left end portion, and the adjacent spiral blade is disposed below. They are all alternately configured.

於上述構成的食品坯材裁斷裝置101中，由 輸送帶105搬運的食品坯材103，其具有比設置在圓筒狀構造體之外圍面的螺旋狀刀片之寬度(圓筒狀構造體的軸方向長度)還稍微窄的寬度。 In the food material cutting device 101 configured as described above, The food material material 103 conveyed by the conveyor belt 105 has a width slightly smaller than the width of the spiral blade provided on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical structure body (the axial direction length of the cylindrical structure body).

利用未圖示的伺服馬達等使卷狀切刀107與輸送帶105的搬運速度同步旋轉推向輸送帶105，藉此就可使輸送帶105所搬運的扁平狀食品坯材103如第8圖所示逐漸裁斷成曲折狀。即，在相鄰之螺旋狀刀片的右側端部和左側端部，如以上所述，交替配置有未設置刀片的不裁斷部，因此於扁平狀食品坯材103之左右的端部就會交替形成有未裁斷的部份。 By the servo motor (not shown) or the like, the roll cutter 107 and the conveyance speed of the conveyance belt 105 are simultaneously rotated and pushed toward the conveyance belt 105, whereby the flat food material 103 conveyed by the conveyance belt 105 can be made as shown in FIG. It is gradually cut into a zigzag shape as shown. That is, in the right end portion and the left end portion of the adjacent spiral blade, as described above, the non-cut portions in which the blades are not provided are alternately arranged, so that the left and right ends of the flat food material material 103 are alternated. Formed with uncut parts.

此時，由於卷狀切刀107的刀片是形成為螺旋狀，因此螺旋狀刀片的全體並不會同時裁斷食品坯材103，而是以螺旋狀刀片的一點接觸輸送帶105的狀態依順序逐漸裁斷食品坯材103，基於此食品坯材103就會在不承受大壓力的狀態下被裁斷。 At this time, since the blade of the roll cutter 107 is formed in a spiral shape, the entire spiral blade does not simultaneously cut the food material 103, but the state in which the spiral blade is in contact with the conveyor belt 105 is gradually changed in order. The food material 103 is cut, and based on this food material 103, it is cut without being subjected to a large pressure.

在輸送帶105上被裁斷的食品坯材103，如第8圖所示，是會因為自重的關係而往位於輸送帶105的下游且配置在輸送帶105下方的轉送帶111上落下。只要事先將轉送帶111的搬運速度設定成比輸送帶105的搬運速度還大，就能夠如第8圖所示形成連續的繩索狀、帶狀或 棒狀等長帶狀食品坯材。 The food material material 103 cut on the conveyor belt 105, as shown in Fig. 8, is dropped onto the conveyor belt 111 which is disposed downstream of the conveyor belt 105 and disposed below the conveyor belt 105 due to its own weight. If the conveyance speed of the transfer belt 111 is set to be larger than the conveyance speed of the conveyance belt 105 in advance, a continuous rope shape, a belt shape, or the like can be formed as shown in FIG. Rod-shaped isometric strip food material.

其次，根據第9圖針對本發明第3實施形態 進行說明。在說明第3實施形態時，針對與上述實施形態相同的部份為了避免重覆說明是予以省略，且只針對與上述第1實施形態不同的部份進行說明。 Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described based on Fig. 9. Be explained. In the third embodiment, the same portions as those in the above-described embodiment will be omitted in order to avoid redundancy, and only the portions different from the first embodiment will be described.

第3實施形態相關的食品坯材裁斷裝置201， 其與上述第1實施形態相關的食品坯材裁斷裝置1不同之處，是在於具備有光學感測器203以做為對切刀7所切出來之長帶狀食品坯材4A的折返端部4E進行檢測的檢測手段。光學感測器203，其配置在切刀7的前方(第9圖的紙面讀者跟前側)即輸送帶5之搬運端的上方，又配置在光學感測器9A及光學感測器9B之間(參閱第9圖)，且配備成可與切刀7一體移動。此外，於轉送帶11的搬運下游側依順序配置有第1秤重輸送機79B、第2秤重輸送機81B及搬出輸送機205。接著，於轉送帶11之下游端附近的上方配備有裁斷機77B。 The food material cutting device 201 according to the third embodiment, The food material cutting device 1 according to the first embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that the optical sensor 203 is provided as a folded end portion of the long strip-shaped food material 4A cut out by the cutter 7. 4E detection means for detection. The optical sensor 203 is disposed in front of the cutter 7 (the front side of the paper reader of FIG. 9), that is, above the transport end of the conveyor belt 5, and is disposed between the optical sensor 9A and the optical sensor 9B ( Refer to Figure 9) and equipped to move integrally with the cutter 7. Further, the first weighing conveyor 79B, the second weighing conveyor 81B, and the unloading conveyor 205 are disposed in this order on the downstream side of the conveyance of the transfer belt 11. Next, a cutter 77B is provided above the downstream end of the transfer belt 11.

食品坯材3，基於坯材的不同而具有各種的物 性。當食品坯材3為相對性柔軟且黏性強的發酵坯材時，則長帶狀食品坯材4有時會黏附在輸送帶5而不會立即往下方落下。於該情況時，當切刀7在控制裝置13的控制下與第1實施形態同樣地往與目前為止相反的方向開始裁斷動作時，恐怕尚未從輸送帶5往下方落下的長帶狀食品坯材4會和新裁出的長帶狀食品坯材4成為折疊的狀態落下至轉送帶11。該折疊的長帶狀食品坯材4就會是第1 秤重輸送機79之秤重精度降低的主要原因並造成問題。 Food material 3, which has various contents based on the material of the material Sex. When the food material 3 is a relatively soft and highly viscous fermented material, the long strip of food material 4 may adhere to the conveyor belt 5 without falling immediately downward. In this case, when the cutter 7 starts the cutting operation in the opposite direction to the present embodiment as in the first embodiment under the control of the control device 13, there is a fear that the long strip-shaped food blank that has not fallen down from the conveyor belt 5 is likely to fall. The material 4 and the newly cut long strip-shaped food material 4 are dropped to the transfer belt 11 in a folded state. The folded long strip of food material 4 will be the first The main reason for the reduction in the weighing accuracy of the weighing conveyor 79 is that it causes problems.

接著，針對第3實施形態相關之食品坯材裁 斷裝置201的切刀7之動作進行說明。於切刀7往箭頭符號B方向(第9圖的右方向)移動裁斷食品坯材3時(去程移動的裁斷時)，比上述切刀7先行的光學感測器9A檢測出食品坯材3的右側緣之後，當光學感測器203檢測出切刀7所裁出的長帶狀食品坯材4A之折返端部4E時，上述光學感測器203就會上述控制裝置13的控制下使切刀7上昇至從右緣側離開的設定位置。如上述藉由控制切刀7的動作，就能夠在切刀7從往一方之方向的裁斷動作往返動成為往另一方之方向的裁斷動作時，防止長帶狀食品坯材4A折疊。 Next, the food material blank related to the third embodiment The operation of the cutter 7 of the breaking device 201 will be described. When the cutting blade 7 moves the cutting of the food material 3 in the direction of the arrow symbol B (the right direction of FIG. 9) (when the cutting of the outward movement is performed), the optical sensor 9A that is earlier than the cutting blade 7 detects the food material. After the right edge of 3, when the optical sensor 203 detects the folded end portion 4E of the long strip-shaped food material 4A cut by the cutter 7, the optical sensor 203 is under the control of the above-mentioned control device 13. The cutter 7 is raised to a set position that is separated from the right edge side. By controlling the operation of the cutter 7 as described above, it is possible to prevent the long strip-shaped food material 4A from being folded when the cutting operation of the cutter 7 from the direction of the cutting is reversed to the other direction.

再加上，根據第10圖對第3實施形態相關之 食品坯材裁斷裝置201的其他變形例進行說明。該變形例，其構成為從縱長LA且橫長LB的矩形食品坯材3切出獲得裁斷縱長WA的棒狀食品坯材6，再從該棒狀食品坯材6切出獲得裁斷橫長WB的小塊6C。 In addition, according to FIG. 10, the third embodiment is related to Other modifications of the food material cutting device 201 will be described. In the modified example, the rectangular food material 3 having the longitudinal length LA and the horizontal length LB is cut out to obtain the rod-shaped food material 6 having the cut length WA, and the cut shape is cut out from the rod-shaped food material 6 to obtain the cut width. A small piece of 6C long WB.

裁斷縱長WA及裁斷橫長WB，是藉由對觸控 面板等輸入裝置(省略圖示)輸入各長度方向的任意分割數，使運算裝置根據食品坯材3的縱長LA及橫長LB進行算出後獲得的值。 Cutting the lengthwise WA and cutting the horizontal length WB by using touch An input device (not shown) such as a panel inputs a value obtained by calculating the number of divisions in each longitudinal direction and calculating the length of the food material 3 based on the longitudinal length LA and the horizontal length LB.

該變形例相關的食品坯材裁斷裝置201中， 切刀7是設定成往返移動在指定區間。此外，於轉送帶11之下游端附近的側方具備有對棒狀食品坯材6之下游 端進行檢測的光學感測器207。再加上，第1秤重輸送機79B及第2秤重輸送機81B是使用做為以轉送帶11之搬運速度相同的速度連續驅動的搬運裝置。 In the food material cutting device 201 related to this modification, The cutter 7 is set to move back and forth in a designated section. Further, the side near the downstream end of the transfer belt 11 is provided with a downstream of the rod-shaped food material 6 The end is detected by an optical sensor 207. Further, the first weighing conveyor 79B and the second weighing conveyor 81B are used as conveying devices that are continuously driven at the same speed as the conveying speed of the conveying belt 11.

於以上所述的構成中，是將食品坯材3載置 在輸送帶5上，且於控制裝置13的控制下驅動該輸送帶5。接著，當上述食品坯材3往Y軸前方向被搬運時，食品坯材3的前端緣會由光學感測器15檢測出，使食品坯材3從上述切刀7的裁斷位置往前方向僅搬運裁斷縱長WA的距離，於此停止輸送帶5的搬運動作。 In the above configuration, the food material 3 is placed The conveyor belt 5 is driven on the conveyor belt 5 and under the control of the control unit 13. Next, when the food material 3 is conveyed in the Y-axis front direction, the leading edge of the food material 3 is detected by the optical sensor 15, and the food material 3 is advanced from the cutting position of the cutter 7. Only the distance of the cutting length WA is conveyed, and the conveying operation of the conveyor belt 5 is stopped here.

接著，將停止在左方向適當位置之狀態下的 切刀7下降至輸送帶5上，藉由往右方向以高速移動來執行食品坯材3之前端緣的裁斷。接著，所切出來的棒狀食品坯材6就會落下在停止狀態的轉送帶11上。當上述轉送帶11將棒狀食品坯材6往箭頭符號B方向轉送時光學感測器207就會檢測棒狀食品坯材6的前端緣。當根據該檢測資訊使棒狀食品坯材6被搬運僅裁斷橫長WB的距離時，裁斷機77B會動作以從棒狀食品坯材6裁斷出小塊6C。然後，於棒狀食品坯材6C每次被搬運僅裁斷橫長WB的距離時裁斷機77B就會動作。另外，裁斷機77B針對最後一塊的棒狀食品坯材是不動作。即，此所意味的是指當棒狀食品坯材6為6等分時裁斷機77B會有5次動作。 Then, it will stop at the appropriate position in the left direction. The cutter 7 is lowered onto the conveyor belt 5, and the cutting of the front edge of the food material 3 is performed by moving at a high speed in the right direction. Then, the cut bar-shaped food material 6 is dropped on the transfer belt 11 in a stopped state. When the transfer belt 11 transfers the rod-shaped food material 6 in the direction of the arrow symbol B, the optical sensor 207 detects the leading edge of the rod-shaped food material 6. When the rod-shaped food material 6 is conveyed based on the detection information to cut only the distance of the horizontal length WB, the cutting machine 77B operates to cut the small piece 6C from the rod-shaped food material 6. Then, the cutter 77B operates when the rod-shaped food material 6C is conveyed only by cutting the distance of the horizontal length WB. Further, the cutting machine 77B does not operate for the last rod-shaped food material. That is, this means that the cutting machine 77B has five operations when the rod-shaped food material 6 is six equal parts.

切刀7，當其從食品坯材3切出棒狀食品坯材 6移動至右側的設定位置時就會上昇。接著，當轉送帶11 上的棒狀食品坯材6從輸送帶5的下方位置往外方被搬運時，上述輸送帶5就會再度動作，將食品坯材3只搬運搬運裁斷縱長WA的距離就停止搬運。然後，藉由切刀7的下降往左方向高速移動，就會切出下一個棒狀食品坯材6，且該下一個棒狀食品坯材6會落下在輸送帶11上。接著，與上述同樣地會從棒狀食品坯材6裁斷出小塊6C。 The cutter 7 when it cuts out the stick-shaped food material from the food material 3 6 It will rise when you move to the setting position on the right. Then, when the transfer belt 11 When the upper bar-shaped food material 6 is transported from the lower position of the conveyor belt 5 to the outside, the conveyor belt 5 is operated again, and the food material 3 is conveyed and conveyed by cutting the length of the longitudinal length WA. Then, by moving the cutter 7 at a high speed in the left direction, the next rod-shaped food material 6 is cut out, and the next rod-shaped food material 6 is dropped on the conveyor belt 11. Next, the small pieces 6C are cut out from the rod-shaped food material 6 in the same manner as described above.

如以上所示之說明的理解，藉由將輸送帶5 上之矩形食品坯材3根據食品坯材3的縱長LA以所要等分的裁斷縱長WA切出棒狀食品坯材6，並且將棒狀食品坯材6根據食品坯材3的橫長LA以所要等分的裁斷橫長WB切出小塊6C，就能夠從矩形食品坯材3切出任意數量的小塊6C。於該形態時，同樣地，能夠在對食品坯材3幾乎不施以壓力的狀態下切出形狀整齊的小塊6C。 As explained in the description above, by conveyor belt 5 The upper rectangular food material 3 cuts out the stick-shaped food material 6 according to the longitudinal length LA of the food material 3, and cuts the rod-shaped food material 6 according to the transverse length of the food material 3 LA cuts out the small pieces 6C by cutting the horizontal length WB to be equally divided, and can cut out any number of small pieces 6C from the rectangular food material 3. In the same manner, in the same manner, it is possible to cut out the small-sized pieces 6C in a state in which the food material 3 is hardly pressed.
