Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of mussel picking, in particular to automatic picking and cleaning equipment for mussel processing. Background Art

[0002] At present, artificial mussel farming devices mostly use farming ropes and wrapping cloths for farming. During the mussel farming process, mussels will attach to the farming ropes; when the mussels are mature, the mussels attached to the farming ropes need to be picked and harvested. At present, the method of picking and harvesting mussels is usually to use a traction device to forcibly pull the farming ropes through the through holes of the tie plate, so as to pick off the mussels attached to the farming ropes. The current method of picking and harvesting mussels has a relatively tight attachment between the mussels and the ropes, resulting in a large pulling force, which in turn causes greater damage to the mussels, and may even cause problems such as ruptured mussel shells and crushed mussel meat.

[0003] Chinese patent CN105454401B discloses a mussel removal and cleaning device, which aims to provide a mussel removal and cleaning device that can effectively solve the problem that the current mussel picking and harvesting method causes great damage to mussels, and even causes mussel shells to break and mussel meat to be crushed, and can also clean the picked mussels. It includes a mussel farming rope, an automatic mussel removal device and a cleaning device; the mussel farming rope includes a load-bearing core rope and a plurality of attachment ropes wound parallel to the load-bearing core rope; the automatic mussel removal device includes a frame, a fixed clamping bracket fixedly arranged on the frame, a horizontal guide rail arranged on the frame, a slide seat slidably arranged on the horizontal guide rail, a translation actuator for driving the slide seat to move, and a dynamic clamping bracket arranged on the slide seat.

[0004] When the above device is in use, it is split into independent individuals through the rope, so as to reduce the attachment space of the mussels on the rope, so that the mussels will fall from the rope, thereby completing the picking of the mussels. However, the above method requires a specific rope to be implemented, and when picking the mussels, it is more troublesome to fix the rope, and the installation and removal of the rope need to be completed by the staff themselves, which increases the workload of the staff and reduces the work efficiency. In addition, when picking the mussels, one end of the rope needs to be split into independent individuals, so that after picking the mussels, the rope needs to be restored to its original state, which further increases the workload of the staff and leads to low overall work efficiency.

[0032] In order to further understand the features, technical means, specific objectives and functions of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present invention provides: an automatic picking and cleaning device for mussel processing, including a transport device 1 and a cleaning device 2, the transport device 1 includes a first conveyor belt 11, a mobile platform 12 and a clamping assembly 13, the mobile platform 12 has a plurality of platforms and is spaced apart along the path of the first conveyor belt 11, the clamping assembly 13 is arranged on the mobile platform 12 and is used to clamp a rope with mussels, the first conveyor belt 11 is used to transport the clamping assembly 13 toward the cleaning device 2; a heater 14 is provided at the top end of the first conveyor belt 11, the heater 14 is used to heat the rope passing on the first conveyor belt 11; a picking device 3 is also provided between the transport device 1 and the cleaning device 2, the picking device 3 is used to remove the heated mussels from the rope and send them into the cleaning device 2.

[0034] During artificial breeding, mussels will attach to the breeding ropes, so when the mussels are picked and harvested, the ropes with mussels can be placed on the mobile platform 12, and then the ropes are fixed to the mobile platform 12 by the clamping assembly 13, and the ropes are kept in a taut state, and then the first conveyor belt 11 starts to work, so as to transport the ropes to the cleaning device 2 one by one. When the ropes move on the first conveyor belt 11, the ropes will enter the heater 14 provided on the first conveyor belt 11, so that the ropes can be heated by the heater 14. Heat is applied to soften the shells of the mussels, thereby making it easier for the mussels to be removed from the rope. The rope then moves out of the heater 14 and is driven by the first conveyor belt 11 to move below the first conveyor belt 11. The mussels on the rope are then removed by the removal device 3 provided between the conveyor device 1 and the cleaning device 2. Since the mussels on the rope have been heated, the removal device 3 can easily remove the mussels from the rope. At the same time, the removed mussels fall into the cleaning device 2, thereby making the cleaning device 2 below the conveyor device 1. It takes a certain amount of time for the picking device 3 to pick the mussels on the rope. Therefore, when the picking device 3 is picking the mussels, the first conveyor belt 11 stops moving and can increase the time for the rope to be heated inside the heater 14, thereby ensuring that the heater 14 has enough time to soften the mussel shells, so that the mussels can be quickly removed from the rope; when the mussels on the rope are picked, the first conveyor belt 11 starts to move, thereby driving the rope with the mussels picked to move toward the head end of the transport device 1, so that the staff can move the rope A new rope with mussels is taken down and replaced, and the first conveyor belt 11 simultaneously moves the subsequent rope with mussels to the picking device 3 for picking the mussels, thereby forming a cycle, thereby improving work efficiency; when the mussels picked from the rope fall into the cleaning device 2, the cleaning device 2 starts to clean the mussels and drives the mussels to move in a direction away from the transport device 1 until the cleaned mussels are transported out of the cleaning device 2, and then a collection box or other device can be set at the outlet of the cleaning device 2 to collect the cleaned mussels.

[0035] Reference Figure 3 As shown: the picking device 3 includes a clamping ring 31, a first linear mechanism 32 and a second linear mechanism 33; the clamping ring 31 has two and is relatively arranged at the top end of the first linear mechanism 32; the first linear mechanism 32 is arranged at the top end of the second linear mechanism 33 and is used to control the clamping ring 31 to approach or move away from the rope; the second linear mechanism 33 is at the bottom end of the first conveyor belt 11 and is used to control the first linear mechanism 32 to move horizontally.

[0036] The first linear mechanism 32 can be a linear device such as a telescopic cylinder or an electric cylinder, so as to drive the clamping ring 31 to approach or move away from the rope in the vertical direction. When the first conveyor belt 11 moves the rope with mussels to the bottom of the first conveyor belt 11, the first linear mechanism 32 with the clamping ring 31 is just at one end of the rope, and then the first linear mechanism 32 starts to drive the clamping ring 31 to move upward, thereby gradually approaching the rope. While the clamping ring 31 moves vertically upward, the two clamping rings 31 can approach each other, so that when the first linear mechanism 32 moves the clamping ring 31 to the predetermined position, the two clamping rings 31 just clamp the rope. The second linear mechanism 33 then starts to drive the first linear mechanism 32 to move toward the other end of the rope, so that the clamping ring 31 can slide on the outer wall of the rope, thereby scraping off the mussels attached to the rope, and because the rope has been heated by the heater 14, the shells of the mussels on the rope become soft, and the connection between the mussels and the rope is no longer tight, so that the mussels can be easily scraped off the rope, and the mussels scraped off the rope directly fall into the cleaning device 2, and then the mussels are cleaned by the cleaning device 2; the second linear mechanism 33 can adopt linear slides such as ball screw slides, linear guide slides and linear motor slides.

[0037] Reference Figure 4 As shown: the picking device 3 also includes an installation box 34, a lifting platform 35 and an abutment rod 36; the first linear mechanism 32 is located inside the installation box 34, and the telescopic end of the first linear mechanism 32 passes through the top of the installation box 34; the installation box 34 is on the second linear mechanism 33; the lifting platform 35 is located above the installation box 34 and is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the first linear mechanism 32; the clamping ring 31 is slidably arranged on the lifting platform 35; the abutment rod 36 is arranged at the top of the installation box 34, and the top of the abutment rod 36 passes through the top of the lifting platform 35 and abuts against the clamping ring 31.

[0038] The first linear mechanism 32 is located inside the installation box 34, so that the first linear mechanism 32 can be protected to a certain extent, thereby preventing the falling mussels from causing damage to the first linear mechanism 32, and the clamping ring 31 is slidably set on the lifting platform 35, and the top of the abutment rod 36 passes through the lifting platform 35 and abuts against the clamping ring 31, so that when the first linear mechanism 32 drives the lifting platform 35 to move downward, the outer wall of the clamping ring 31 and the abutment rod 36 abut against each other, and in the process of gradually moving downward, the two clamping rings 31 will move away from each other until the rope with mussels moves to the bottom of the first conveyor belt 11 and is above the picking device 3, and then the first linear mechanism 32 drives the lifting platform 35 to move upward, so that the clamping ring 3 1 gradually approaches the rope. When the rope is between the two clamping rings 31, the two clamping rings 31 are completely separated from the abutting rod 36, so that the two clamping rings 31 can approach each other, so that the inner peripheral wall of the clamping ring 31 and the outer peripheral wall of the rope can abut each other. Then the second linear mechanism 33 starts to drive the clamping ring 31 to move toward the other end of the rope, so as to scrape off the mussels attached to the rope. At the same time, a first compression spring should be provided between each clamping ring 31 and the lifting platform 35. Through the action of the first compression spring, the two clamping rings 31 can approach each other after being separated from the abutting rod 36, so that the inner peripheral wall of the clamping ring 31 and the outer peripheral wall of the rope can fit tightly, so that when the clamping ring 31 moves on the rope, the mussels can be scraped off the rope.

[0039] Reference Figure 5 As shown: the bottom end of the clamping ring 31 is provided with a first inclined surface 311; the top end of the abutting rod 36 is provided with a second inclined surface 361 abutting against the first inclined surface 311, so that when the clamping ring 31 moves vertically downward, the two clamping rings 31 are respectively moved away from each other under the action of the first inclined surface 311 and the second inclined surface 361.

[0040] Two second inclined surfaces 361 are respectively provided at the top end of the abutment rod 36, which abut against the first inclined surface 311 of a clamping ring 31 respectively, so that when the first linear mechanism 32 drives the lifting platform 35 to move vertically downward, the two clamping rings 31 move away from each other under the action of the first inclined surface 311 and the second inclined surface 361 respectively, and squeeze the first compression spring. Then, when the rope with mussels moves to the bottom of the first conveyor belt 11 and is above the picking device 3, the first linear mechanism 32 starts to drive the lifting platform 35 to move vertically upward, and the rope is between the two clamping rings 31. At this time, the clamping ring 31 starts to move upward along the second inclined surface 361 and under the action of the first compression spring, the two clamping rings 31 can approach each other until the inner circumferential wall of the clamping ring 31 abuts against the outer circumferential wall of the rope, so that the mussels on the rope can be scraped off under the drive of the second linear mechanism 33.

[0041] Reference Figure 6 As shown: the clamping assembly 13 includes a connecting seat 131 and a locking ring 133; the mobile platform 12 is also provided with a connecting assembly 15, and the connecting assembly 15 is detachably fixedly connected to the connecting seat 131; the connecting seat 131 has two and is respectively located at the two ends of the mobile platform 12, and two clamping claws 132 are slidably provided on the inner side of the connecting seat 131; the locking ring 133 is sleeved on the outer side walls of the two clamping claws 132, and the inner peripheral wall of the locking ring 133 is threadedly connected to the outer peripheral wall of the clamping claw 132 through a tapered thread.

[0042] The two connecting seats 131 are respectively installed on the mobile platform 12 through the connecting components 15. At the same time, since the connecting seat 131 and the connecting component 15 are detachably fixedly connected, the connecting seat 131 can be quickly installed on the mobile platform 12. At the same time, when the mobile seat is damaged and needs maintenance and repair, the mobile seat can be quickly removed from the mobile platform 12 and replaced with a new mobile seat, thereby ensuring that the transportation device 1 can be used normally; two clamping claws 132 are slidably provided on the inner side of the mobile seat, and the two clamping claws 132 are arranged relatively to each other, so that the two clamping claws 132 can approach or move away from each other. At this time, the outer side of the two clamping claws 132 is provided with a locking ring 133, and the inner peripheral wall of the locking ring 133 is threadedly connected to the outer peripheral wall of the clamping claw 132 through a tapered thread, so that when it is continuously rotated When the locking ring 133 is tightened, the two clamping claws 132 can be driven to approach each other, and when the locking ring 133 is loosened, the two clamping claws 132 can move away from each other. Therefore, after the rope with mussels is placed on the mobile platform 12, the two ends of the rope can be respectively placed in the clamping claws 132 at both ends of the mobile platform 12, and then the two locking rings 133 are tightened respectively, so that the corresponding two clamping claws 132 can be driven to approach each other, so as to clamp and fix the rope. Then the rope can follow the first conveyor belt 11 to move to the cleaning device 2 until the mussels are picked by the picking device 3; at the same time, in order to ensure that the clamping claws 132 can stably clamp and fix the rope, teeth can be set on the inner side wall of the clamping claws 132, so as to ensure that the rope can be stably clamped and fixed by the two clamping claws 132.

[0043] Reference Figure 7 As shown, an elastic component 134 is provided between the clamping claw 132 and the connecting seat 131 , and the elastic component 134 is used to drive the two clamping claws 132 to move away from each other.

[0044] When one end of the rope is placed between the two clamping claws 132, the two clamping claws 132 can be driven to approach each other by tightening the locking ring 133, so that the rope is clamped and fixed. When the two clamping claws 132 approach each other, the elastic component 134 is squeezed, so that the elastic component 134 can continuously apply thrust to the clamping claws 132, thereby ensuring that the outer peripheral wall of the clamping claws 132 and the inner peripheral wall of the locking ring 133 abut against each other; when the mussels on the rope are picked, the rope is moved to the transport device 1 through the first transport device 1. At the head end, the staff can rotate the locking ring 133 in the opposite direction, and under the action of the elastic component 134, the two clamping claws 132 can move away from each other, so that the staff can take the rope out of the clamping claws 132, and put the new rope with mussels into the clamping claws 132 and fix it; the elastic component 134 can adopt elastic elements such as compression springs, gas springs or air springs, so as to stably drive the two clamping claws 132 away from each other, so that the outer peripheral wall of the clamping claws 132 and the inner peripheral wall of the locking ring 133 abut against each other.

[0045] Reference Figure 6 As shown: the connecting assembly 15 includes a first fixing seat 151 and a second fixing seat 152; the first fixing seat 151 and the second fixing seat 152 are respectively arranged at two ends of the mobile platform 12, and the first fixing seat 151 and the second fixing seat 152 are respectively slidably connected with the corresponding mobile seat.

[0046] The first fixed seat 151 and the second fixed seat 152 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the moving seat, and the moving seat has two and is respectively connected to the first fixed seat 151 and the second fixed seat 152. At the same time, in order to enable the moving seat to be quickly installed on the first fixed seat 151 or the second fixed seat 152, a slide rail can be set on the moving seat, and the first fixed seat 151 and the second fixed seat 152 are respectively provided with a slide groove. When installing the moving seat, it is only necessary to insert the slide rail on the moving seat into the slide groove of the first fixed seat 151 or the second fixed seat 152, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the moving seat.

[0047] Reference Figure 8 As shown: a vertical plate is provided on one end of the mobile platform 12 close to the second fixed seat 152, and the second fixed seat 152 is slidably connected to the mobile platform 12; a rotating ring 153 is provided on one end of the second fixed seat 152 close to the vertical plate, and the rotating ring 153 is rotatably connected to the second fixed seat 152; an adjusting screw rod 154 is fixed to the inner peripheral wall of the rotating ring 153, and the adjusting screw rod 154 passes through the vertical plate and is threadedly connected to the vertical plate.

[0048] The second fixing seat 152 is slidably connected to the mobile platform 12, so that the second fixing seat 152 can gradually approach or move away from the first fixing seat 151, so as to adapt to ropes of different lengths. When the rope with mussels is placed on the mobile platform 12, and one end of the rope is clamped and fixed by the clamping claw 132 on the first fixing seat 151, the staff puts the other end of the rope in the middle of the clamping claw 132 on the second fixing seat 152, and then tightens the corresponding locking ring 133, so that the other end of the rope is also clamped and fixed by the clamping claw 132, and then it can be By rotating the adjusting screw rod 154, since the adjusting screw rod 154 is threadedly connected to the vertical plate, the adjusting screw rod 154 will move horizontally. At this time, the adjusting screw rod 154 is fixedly connected to the rotating ring 153, and the rotating ring 153 is rotatably connected to the second fixed seat 152. When the adjusting screw rod 154 moves horizontally, the second fixed seat 152 will move synchronously with the adjusting screw rod 154, so that the rope between the first fixed seat 151 and the second fixed seat 152 can be pulled into a taut state, thereby ensuring that the picking device 3 can successfully pick the mussels.

[0049] Reference Fig. 9 As shown: a storage box 4 for storing ropes is provided at the bottom of the first conveyor belt 11; a friction seat 41 is provided inside the storage box 4, and the top end of the friction seat 41 rubs against the outer peripheral wall of the locking ring 133.

[0050] When the rope with mussels moves to the bottom of the first conveyor belt 11 and is above the picking device 3, the mussels on the rope can be picked clean by the picking device 3, and then under the continued guidance of the first conveyor belt 11, the cleaned rope begins to move toward the head end of the first conveyor belt 11. During the movement of the rope, it passes through the storage box 4 under the first conveyor belt 11, and the locking ring 133 on the clamping assembly 13 contacts the friction seat 41 inside the storage box 4. Then, under the continuous drive of the first conveyor belt 11, the locking ring 133 moves on the friction seat 41, and because the tops of the locking ring 133 and the friction seat 41 are mutually contacted, the rope moves cleanly. Friction, so that during the movement, the locking ring 133 will rotate, so that the two clamping claws 132 move away from each other, and then the rope falls into the storage box 4 under the influence of its own weight, so that there is no need to manually remove the rope, thereby improving work efficiency. After the clamping claws 132 move away from each other, the clamping assembly 13 continues to move toward the head end of the first conveyor belt 11 until it moves to the head end of the first conveyor belt 11 and is above the first conveyor belt 11. Then the staff can directly fix the new rope with mussels to the mobile platform 12, so as to carry out a new round of circulation, thereby quickly picking up the mussels on all the ropes.

[0051] Reference Fig.10 As shown: the cleaning device 2 includes a cleaning tank 21, a second conveyor belt 22 and a cleaning roller 23; the cleaning tank 21 is located at the tail end of the transport device 1 and below the first conveyor belt 11; the second conveyor belt 22 is located inside the cleaning tank 21 and is used to transport the mussels away from the transport device 1; there are a plurality of cleaning rollers 23 and they are spaced apart at the top of the cleaning tank 21; a driving device for driving the second conveyor belt 22 and the cleaning roller 23 to rotate synchronously is provided on the outer side of the cleaning tank 21.

[0052] The cleaning tank 21 is at the tail end of the transport device 1 and is located below the first conveyor belt 11, so that when the rope with mussels moves to the bottom of the first conveyor belt 11 and is located above the picking device 3, the picking device 3 begins to pick the mussels on the rope, and the picked mussels fall directly into the cleaning tank 21 and fall onto the second conveyor belt 22, and then the second conveyor belt 22 begins to transport the mussels one by one in a direction away from the transport device 1. While the second conveyor belt 22 is transporting the mussels, several cleaning rollers 23 arranged on the cleaning tank 21 also start to rotate synchronously, thereby rolling and brushing the mussels on the second conveyor belt 22 to clean the mussels. At the same time, a nozzle (not shown in the figure) can also be arranged above the cleaning tank 21 to spray water on the mussels on the second conveyor belt 22 , thereby improving the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning device 2 for mussels; the driving device includes a first motor, a rotating shaft, a pulley and a synchronous belt.
