Intelligent color selector for Chinese herbal medicine

Abstract

An intelligent color selector for Chinese herbal medicine comprises a conveying mechanism used for conveying materials. A signal collection mechanism used for collecting material image information is arranged above the portion adjacent to the discharge end of the conveying mechanism. A sorting mechanism is arranged at the position adjacent to the position of the signal collection mechanism. A feeding mechanism is arranged close to the feed end of the conveying mechanism. The feeding mechanism comprises a feeding frame arranged on a machine frame. A hopper is arranged in the feeding frame. A material opening in the lower portion of the hopper is connected with a discharge passageway obliquely arranged towards the conveying mechanism. A passageway opening of the discharge passageway is located above the feed end of the conveying mechanism. A Chinese herbal medicine elevator is arranged on the feeding frame. An upper end discharge port of the elevator faces a material opening in the upper portion of the hopper. The conveying mechanism comprises a conveyor belt horizontally arranged. The signal collection mechanism is arranged close to the portion above the discharge end of the conveyor belt. A baffle is in the position state that the baffle is in the free falling route of the materials at the discharge end of the conveyor belt or in the position state that the baffle is away from the free falling route of the materials.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an intelligent color sorter for Chinese herbal medicines, belonging to the technical field of intelligent color sorters. Background technique [0002] As a kind of material sorting equipment, the color sorter is widely used in medicine, grain processing and other industries. The color sorter as a whole includes key components such as the conveying mechanism, optical signal acquisition mechanism, and sorting actuator. The function is to promptly remove the heterochromatic materials collected by the optical signal acquisition mechanism. The existing small materials such as beans, rice, etc., are mostly removed by blowing air, specifically the materials at the discharge end of the conveyor belt. An air nozzle is set above the throwing path, and the air nozzle is connected to the air source. When the optical signal acquisition mechanism collects the heterochromatic material, it processes the signal, thereby controlling the air blow...

[0002] As a kind of material sorting equipment, the color sorter is widely used in medicine, grain processing and other industries. The color sorter as a whole includes key components such as the conveying mechanism, optical signal acquisition mechanism, and sorting actuator. The function is to promptly remove the heterochromatic materials collected by the optical signal acquisition mechanism. The existing small materials such as beans, rice, etc., are mostly removed by blowing air, specifically the materials at the discharge end of the conveyor belt. An air nozzle is set above the throwing path, and the air nozzle is connected to the air source. When the optical signal acquisition mechanism collects the heterochromatic material, it processes the signal, thereby controlling the air blowing action of the air nozzle, and then dispelling the heterochromatic material Blow it off, and the materials that meet the requirements are thrown freely to other mechanisms of the color sorter, and then the sorting of the materials is completed; the invention patent application specification with the patent application number 201410662744.X discloses a color sorter. The sorting machine includes a conveying mechanism for conveying materials. A signal acquisition mechanism for collecting material image information is arranged above the discharge end adjacent to the conveying mechanism. A sorting mechanism is arranged adjacent to the position of the signal collecting mechanism: the feeding mechanism of the conveying mechanism end is connected with the feeding mechanism, and the feeding mechanism includes a cloth box floatingly arranged on the frame, and the discharge end where the front of the cloth box is located is connected with the conveying mechanism; the feeding mechanism of the above-mentioned color sorter is placed High, so there are defects such as inconvenient feeding
