Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sports auxiliary equipment, and in particular to a badminton ball-handling machine with optimized structure, efficient ball handling, and no damage to the badmintons. The machine is mainly used in badminton arrangement and training scenarios. Background Art

[0002] During badminton training or competitions, a large number of scattered shuttlecocks are often generated, requiring manual sorting, which not only consumes a lot of manpower and time, but also has low sorting efficiency. Some existing badminton sorting equipment is inconvenient to operate, has poor ball sorting effect, and most of them do not fully utilize the principle of gravity, resulting in a slow ball sorting speed. Some equipment uses a rotating ball sorting method, which sorts the shuttlecocks by rapidly rotating and stirring. Due to the high rotation speed and strong stirring force, this method is very likely to cause the shuttlecock feathers to entangle, squeeze, or even break, causing serious damage to the shuttlecocks, and is difficult to meet actual use requirements. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to develop a badminton ball sorting machine with a simple structure, easy operation, high ball sorting efficiency, and no damage to the shuttlecocks. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a badminton sorting machine, which, through the innovative design of the motor bracket and the movable mechanism, can quickly shake and sort scattered badmintons by vibrating up and down without causing damage to the feathers.

[0004] A badminton ball sorting machine mainly comprises an upper ball leakage plate, a lower ball leakage plate, a shell, upper and lower movable mechanisms, an electric mechanism, and a guard plate.

[0005] The upper and lower movable mechanism is composed of an octagonal vertical plate, feelers, and a small pulley. The feelers are screwed onto the top corners of the octagonal vertical plate, and two small pulleys are installed at the center of the bottom of the octagonal vertical plate. The setting of the feelers is to prevent the badminton from entering the ball-leaking holes while standing upside down, and to better move and organize the badminton upward. The structural design of the octagonal vertical plate allows the badminton to evenly enter the eight ball-leaking holes of the upper ball-leaking plate during the upper and lower movable process. The function of the small pulley is to prevent the elliptical rotating rod from directly contacting the bottom of the upper and lower movable mechanism, reducing wear.

[0006] The electric mechanism consists of a motor, a motor bracket, a battery bracket, and an elliptical rotating rod. The motor bracket and the bottom of the battery bracket are fixed to the lower ball drain plate with screws, and the motor is mounted on the motor bracket. The motor provides power for the entire ball sorting machine, and the motor bracket ensures the stability of the motor installation. The rotation of the elliptical rotating rod contacts the small pulley of the movable mechanism, shifting the upper and lower movable mechanisms upward. After the elliptical rotating rod rotates, gravity causes the upper and lower movable mechanisms to move downward, thus achieving an up and down reciprocating vibration effect.

[0007] The upper and lower movable mechanisms pass through the upper ball leakage plate through the slits in the upper ball leakage plate. This connection method enables the upper and lower movable mechanisms to move up and down flexibly under the drive of the electric mechanism.

[0008] When the guard plate is opened, it becomes an octagonal trumpet mouth, which is used to increase the ball loading capacity and facilitate the placement of more badmintons for sorting at one time.

[0009] In particular, the present invention adopts an up-and-down motion method for handling the shuttlecock, which is different from a rotational method and does not cause damage to the shuttlecock feathers. The specific reasons are as follows: First, the up and down movement design will not cause violent collision with the badminton when arranging the badminton, reducing the impact on the feathers. In the rotating ball arrangement method, the rapid rotation and stirring will cause the badminton to collide violently with the inner wall of the equipment or other badmintons under the action of centrifugal force, which can easily damage the feathers. Secondly, the antennae are made of a soft and elastic material to prevent damage to the badminton feathers due to rigid contact when the antennae come into contact with them. In the rotating ball handling method, the rotating parts of the equipment are mostly made of rigid materials. Rigid contact with the badminton at high speeds can cause severe damage to the feathers.

[0010] Third, the speed of the upper and lower moving mechanisms is controlled by a motor. A stable DC reduction motor is used. Adjusting the motor speed controls the rhythm of the upper and lower moving mechanisms, ensuring a steady up and down motion, further reducing the risk of damage to the feathers. Rapidly rotating and stirring the shuttlecock, however, results in drastic and uneven forces acting on the shuttlecock due to its high speed, which can easily tear and break the feathers.

[0011] At the same time, the up-and-down motion ball handling method of the present invention fully utilizes the principle of gravity to make the ball handling faster. However, the fast rotation and stirring ball handling method causes the force to form a certain angle with gravity, and the badminton needs to overcome more resistance during the movement, and cannot move smoothly in the direction of gravity, resulting in slower ball handling efficiency.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. The electric mechanism drives the upper and lower movable mechanisms to move, thereby realizing automatic arrangement of badmintons, greatly improving the efficiency of ball arrangement, and saving manpower and time.

[0013] 2. The up and down movement design can effectively avoid damage to the badminton.

[0014] 3. Make full use of the principle of gravity to make the badminton slide quickly under the action of gravity, which significantly improves the ball handling speed. This is different from the problem of low ball handling efficiency caused by the angle formed by the force and gravity in the rapid rotation stirring method.

[0015] 4. The design of the octagonal vertical plate and the tentacles in the upper and lower movable mechanisms can prevent the badminton from entering the ball leakage hole upside down and can move the badminton upward to tidy up the badminton, making the ball tidying process more stable and efficient, with good ball tidying effect.

[0017] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0018] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0019] The octagonal vertical plate (1) of the upper and lower movable mechanism is made of high-strength plastic material with good wear resistance and toughness. The feelers (11) are made of soft material and are evenly installed on the eight top corners of the octagonal vertical plate (1) by screws. The feelers (11) made of soft material will not cause damage to the badminton when in contact with the badminton. Firstly, they can prevent the badminton from entering the ball leakage hole when standing upside down. Secondly, they can better move the badminton upward and organize it. Two small pulleys (12) are plastic pulleys and are symmetrically installed at the center position of the bottom of the octagonal vertical plate. The function of the small pulleys (12) is to prevent the elliptical rotating rod from directly contacting the bottom of the upper and lower movable mechanism, thereby reducing severe wear.

[0020] The motor of the electric mechanism is a DC reduction motor (64) with the characteristics of stable speed and high torque. The motor bracket (63) and the battery bracket (62) are fixedly mounted on the lower ball leakage plate (3) by screws. The reduction motor (64) is mounted on the motor bracket (63) by screws to ensure the stability of the motor during operation. A rechargeable battery is installed on the battery bracket (62) to provide power for the motor. One end of the elliptical rotating rod (61) is connected to the motor bearing and the other end is free. The length of the elliptical rotating rod is 12 cm.

[0021] The upper ball-leaking plate (2) is provided with a slot that matches the upper and lower movable mechanisms. The upper and lower movable mechanisms pass through the upper ball-leaking plate (2) through the slot. When the motor drives the elliptical rotating rod (61) to rotate, the elliptical rotating rod (61) pushes the small pulley, thereby driving the upper and lower movable mechanisms to move up and down. By adjusting the motor speed, the movement speed of the upper and lower movable mechanisms can be controlled within a suitable range, generally set to 100-160 times per minute. This speed can ensure ball handling efficiency while avoiding damage to the badminton feathers due to excessive movement. At the same time, the movement amplitude of the upper and lower movable mechanisms is controlled to be 8-11 cm.

[0022] The guard plate (4) is mounted on the top of the shell through a movable hinge. When the guard plate (4) is opened, it forms an octagonal trumpet mouth, which can increase the ball loading capacity and facilitate the placement of more badmintons at one time.

[0023] Working principle: When in use, the guard plate (4) is opened to form an octagonal bell mouth, a large number of scattered badmintons are placed, and the switch is turned on. The reduction motor (64) drives the elliptical rotating rod (61) to rotate, and the elliptical rotating rod (61) pushes the small pulley (12), so that the upper and lower movable mechanisms vibrate up and down at a suitable speed and amplitude in the slot. The badmintons are affected by the vibration and jump up and down. Under the action of gravity, the ball holders fall downward into the 8 ball holes of the upper ball leakage plate (2), and pass through the 8 ball holes of the lower ball leakage plate (3) into the ball bucket or ball storage cage, completing the ball sorting process. Due to the reasonable design of the movement mode and the full use of the principle of gravity, the whole process not only does not cause damage to the badminton feathers, but also greatly improves the ball sorting speed, avoiding the problems of ball damage and slow efficiency in the fast rotation and stirring method.

Any technician familiar with the technical field, within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, who makes equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
