Automatic garlic root cutting machine based on image processing technique

Abstract

The invention relates to an automatic garlic root cutting machine based on an image processing technique. The automatic garlic root cutting machine comprises a base, a machine frame, a control box I, a material conveying mechanism, a cutting mechanism and an image collecting mechanism, wherein the control box I, the material conveying mechanism and the cutting mechanism are arranged on the machine frame, the control box is respectively connected with the material conveying mechanism and the cutting mechanism, the material conveying mechanism comprises a driving motor I and a material disc, the driving motor I and the material disc are fixedly arranged on the base, the cutting structure comprises a driving motor II, slide rails, a ball screw and a cutting knife, the cutting knife is arranged on the cutting seat, the cutting seat is also provided with a cutting motor and a site detection device, the cutting seat is fixedly connected with the ball screw, the cutting knife is slidingly connected with the slide rails, the image collecting mechanism is connected with the control box, the image collecting mechanism comprises a bracket and a lens, the lens is arranged on the bracket, and the lens is arranged directly above the circle of material cups. The automatic garlic root cutting machine has the advantages that the garlic root cutting quality is improved, and the loss is reduced; and the functions of real-time communication, human-human interaction and multiple protections are realized, and the automatic control of the garlic root cutting is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an agricultural product processing equipment, in particular to an automatic garlic cutter based on image processing. Background technique [0002] Garlic is a best-selling commodity for export, and its processing often includes multiple steps such as navel cutting, peeling, re-slicing and dehydration. Among them, the processes of peeling, slicing and dehydration have all been mechanically operated, but the automation of garlic cutting navel still needs to be improved. Fresh garlic is exposed to wind and sun, and the crude fibers in the navel of the garlic are gradually lignified. If the woody part cannot be removed, the quality of dried garlic will be greatly reduced. At present, there are mainly the following methods for cutting the navel of garlic: (1) Manual navel cutting: This processing technology not only has low productivity and high labor cost, but also has a low garlic utilization rate due to the flat cutting of ordin...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

This patent realizes the automatic removal of the navel of garlic or onion, however, there are still several defects in the following aspects: (1) The garlic exposes the navel through the socket set on the chain plate, and then cuts it off with a cutting mechanism; however, as Naturally growing crops, the size and diameter of garlic must be different, resulting in inconsistent size of the navel exposed from the socket of different garlic, it is difficult to ensure the consistency and accuracy of cutting; (2) The movement of the chain plate depends on the groove The rotation of the wheel mechanism, the cutting mechanism is controlled by another independent motor

There is no linkage between the two, and there is no protection mechanism, so when a misoperation occurs during the cutting process, a large amount of garlic will be cut by mistake, causing unnecessary losses
