Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a crayfish orientation correction device, specifically a device that uses a funnel-type conveyor belt for feeding and an impeller-type rotary wheel for feeding to complete the orientation correction and quantitative conveying of crayfish. Background Technology

[0002] Crayfish processing requires fixing their position beforehand. Traditional aquatic product processing equipment often handles crayfish randomly, and this uncertainty in orientation not only affects processing efficiency but also significantly impacts processing quality. Therefore, the crayfish's orientation needs to be fixed before processing. This invention, in the field of automated food processing equipment technology, innovatively proposes a crayfish orientation correction device. Addressing the problems of random crayfish posture and high requirements for crayfish processing position in existing automated aquatic product processing technologies, this invention provides a device that achieves crayfish orientation correction and quantitative conveying through the combination of a guide ramp and an impeller-type rotor. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is that the existing automatic aquatic product processing equipment has a complex conveying structure and the crayfish have random postures.

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention: A crayfish orientation correction device, characterized by: a funnel-shaped conveyor belt, a rotating wheel, and a connecting rod; The funnel-shaped conveyor belt is an integrated structure based on an inverted frustum-shaped shell design and a side-end guiding ramp. The frustum-shaped shell has an opening at the top and several through holes at the bottom. A ring-shaped surface is provided on its outer circumference, with one end open, extending to form a guiding ramp. Limiting side surfaces are provided on both sides of the ramp, seamlessly connected to the ring-shaped surface, and through holes are provided on these surfaces for connection to connecting rods. Two planar symmetrical cylindrical guide surfaces extend from the ends of the guiding ramp.

[0005] The impeller is a paddlewheel-like structure composed of an array of arc-shaped feeding surfaces, with an axial through hole at its geometric center, which is connected to a connecting rod.

[0006] The connecting rod is a cylindrical structure. Attached Figure Description
