Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of feeding equipment, and particularly relates to a visual detection feeding equipment for processing of seafood fish products. BACKGROUND

[0002] In a seafood fish product frying processing production line, a visual detection feeding equipment needs to be used for feeding, which is mainly used for automatic feeding of fish products such as cod blocks, and the equipment mainly comprises a stock bin, a cutting mechanism, a visual detection system, a feeding execution mechanism and a conveying device. When working, the cod blocks to be processed are stored in the stock bin, are cut into shapes by the cutting mechanism, are recognized by the visual detection system, the state and position of the single fish block are confirmed, then the feeding execution mechanism is controlled to feed the fish blocks one by one to a frying conveying line, continuous feeding is completed, and the visual detection system is mainly used for recognizing the integrity, specification and placement attitude of the fish blocks, so that the fish blocks entering the frying process meet the processing requirements and unqualified products are avoided from being mixed into the production line.

[0003] The existing feeding equipment usually only has a single cutting and feeding function, the feeding mode and arrangement form are relatively fixed, and the feeding equipment cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the actual width of the frying production line and the processing requirements of different specifications of products. When the production line is narrow, the fixed single-row feeding cannot fully utilize the effective space of the conveying belt, resulting in limited production capacity. When the production line is wide or the product specifications change, the equipment cannot adapt to different working conditions by adjusting the feeding row number and spacing, and enterprises often need to configure multiple special equipment or carry out complicated mechanical modification. This feeding mode has insufficient flexibility, increases the equipment investment and replacement and debugging costs, and is difficult to meet the needs of modern fish product multi-variety and flexible production.

[0004] Therefore, the visual detection feeding equipment for processing of seafood fish products is proposed to solve the above problems. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application relates to the technical field of feeding equipment, and particularly relates to a visual detection feeding equipment for processing of seafood fish products.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: a visual inspection and feeding device for seafood processing, comprising a fryer, a conveyor frame fixedly connected to the front side of the fryer, a conveyor mechanism for conveying cod strips provided on the conveyor frame, a pair of mounting plates fixedly connected to the top of the conveyor frame, a top frame fixedly connected between the tops of the mounting plates, a pair of storage frames fixedly connected between the mounting plates via a bracket, side frames fixedly connected to the rear side of each storage frame, and a lower opening on both sides of the bottom end of each side frame, with a lower frame fixedly connected to the bottom end of one of the lower openings on the front side.

A feeding mechanism for pushing the cod strips into the upper frame after they are cut into plates is also provided. A vision inspection camera is fixedly connected to the rear side of the top frame.

[0007] In the above technical solution, the feeding mechanism further includes an upper electric telescopic cylinder. An L-shaped top plate is provided below the top frame relative to the top of the side frame. A pair of upper electric telescopic cylinders are provided, both fixedly connected to the side wall of the top plate. The output end of each upper electric telescopic cylinder passes through the inner side of the top plate and is fixedly connected to a side plate. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the side plate. A feeding frame is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rotating shaft. A fixed electric telescopic cylinder is fixedly connected to the inner side of the feeding frame. A connecting plate is fixedly connected to the output end of the fixed electric telescopic cylinder. L-shaped clamping plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom end of the connecting plate. A rear plate is fixedly connected to the rear side of the feeding frame. A circular electromagnet is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft. The side plate is made of iron. An L-shaped groove is provided at the top of the inner side of the side frame. Through the feeding mechanism, the cod fillets cut into slabs can be automatically pushed to the top of the upper frame.

[0008] In the above technical solution, the cutting mechanism further includes a pair of cutting electric saws. A bottom frame is fixedly connected between the side walls of the side frames. A bidirectional lead screw is rotatably connected to the inner side of the bottom frame. A pair of drive blocks are slidably connected to the inner side of the bottom frame. A drive motor is fixedly connected to the side wall of the bottom frame. The output end of the drive motor passes through the inner side of the bottom frame and is fixedly connected to the side wall of the bidirectional lead screw. The bidirectional lead screw is threaded through and connected to the inner side wall of the drive block. A pair of cutting electric saws are provided, and both cutting electric saws are rotatably connected to the bottom end of the drive block. The saw teeth of the cutting electric saws are located at the bottom ends of the upper and lower frames. A baffle is fixedly connected to the side wall of the cutting electric saw. Through the setting of the cutting mechanism, the cod fillets in the lower and upper frames can be automatically cut into strips.

[0009] In the above technical solution, the bottom end of the drive block is provided with a notch, and the rotating end of the downcutting electric saw is fixedly connected with a toothed ring relative to the position inside the notch. A sliding block is slidably connected to the side wall of the drive block, and a rack that meshes with the toothed ring is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the sliding block.

The output end of the top electric telescopic cylinder passes through the top frame and is fixedly connected to the top of the bidirectional upper cutting electric saws. The saw teeth of the bidirectional upper cutting electric saws are all set through the inner side of the side frame. A pair of storage slots for storing the saw teeth are opened at the bottom of the inner side frame. With the setting of the upper cutting mechanism, the cod bricks can be automatically adjusted into individual cod plates, which is convenient for subsequent cutting into strips.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. This invention achieves longitudinal staggered continuous feeding on a narrow frying conveyor line by alternating the feeding units of the upper and lower frames. The cod strips in the upper and lower frames are cut and synchronously dropped onto the narrow frying conveyor line. The fish pieces in the upper and lower frames are staggered in the longitudinal direction, and two pieces can be fed in a single cycle. This method achieves a doubling of longitudinal feeding density without increasing the width of the conveyor belt, significantly improving the feeding cycle and continuous operation efficiency of narrow line production.

[0013] 2. This invention can also adjust the position between the upper and lower frames, as well as the positions of the feeding mechanism and the cutting mechanism, thereby enabling coordinated feeding with lateral staggering and longitudinal connection between the front and rear rows. This allows for a matrix arrangement of four pieces per group on a wide frying conveyor line. The upper frame first places the fish pieces on both sides of the conveyor belt, followed by the lower frame filling the middle position. As the conveyor belt moves forward, the front row continues to be filled, forming a neat array. This method fully utilizes the effective width of the wide conveyor belt, significantly increasing the amount of material fed per unit area. Furthermore, it allows for flexible adjustment of the feeding mode according to different frying line widths, enhancing the equipment's adaptability to different production scenarios and reducing the cost of multi-line configuration for enterprises.

[0027] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0028] Numerous specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and therefore the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0029] In practical use, it has been found that existing feeding equipment usually only has a single function of cutting and feeding. Its feeding method and arrangement are relatively fixed and cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the actual width of the frying production line and the processing requirements of different product specifications. When the production line is narrow, the fixed single-row feeding cannot make full use of the effective space of the conveyor belt, resulting in limited production capacity. When the production line is wide or the product specifications change, the equipment cannot adapt to different working conditions by adjusting the number of feeding rows and the spacing. Enterprises often need to configure multiple special equipment or carry out cumbersome mechanical modifications. To solve the above problems, the following structure was invented.

[0030] like Figures 1-12The illustrated visual inspection and feeding device for seafood processing includes a fryer 1. A conveyor frame 2 is fixedly connected to the front of the fryer 1. The conveyor frame 2 is equipped with a conveyor mechanism 3 for conveying cod strips. The conveyor mechanism 3 mainly consists of a conveyor belt, conveyor rollers, and a conveyor motor. The conveyor belt is a food-grade, low-temperature resistant PU conveyor belt. Since the cod strips will contact and rub against the surface of the conveyor belt, a PU conveyor belt is chosen to ensure that the frozen cod strips will not be damaged even with friction. A pair of mounting plates 4 are fixedly connected to the top of the conveyor frame 2. A top frame 5 is fixedly connected between the tops of the mounting plates 4. A pair of storage frames 6 are fixedly connected between the mounting plates 4 via brackets. The storage frames 6 are used to store cod bricks (it should be noted that the cod bricks used in this solution are processed after freeze-setting and are in a frozen state when cut into strips. Therefore, before entering the frying section of the fryer 1, they will pass through the fryer 1). The thawing area and storage frame 6 are each fixedly connected to a side frame 7. The bottom of the side frame 7 is provided with two openings 8 on both sides. The bottom of one of the openings 8 on the front side is fixedly connected to a lower frame 10. The other opening 8 is provided with an upper frame 9. There is a gap between the bottom of the upper frame 9 and the lower frame 10 and the top of the output belt of the conveying mechanism 3. The lower frame 9 and the lower frame 10 are provided with a lower cutting mechanism for cutting cod strips. The side frames 7 are provided with an upper cutting mechanism for cutting cod strips into plates. The storage frame 6 is fixedly connected to a U-shaped plate 11. The side wall of the U-shaped plate 11 is fixedly connected to a pusher electric telescopic cylinder 12. The output end of the pusher electric telescopic cylinder 12 passes through the inside of the U-shaped plate 11 and is fixedly connected to a pusher plate 13. There is also a feeding mechanism for pushing the cod strips into the upper frame 9 after they are cut into plates. The top frame 5 is fixedly connected to a vision inspection camera 44. The vision inspection camera 44 is mainly used to identify the integrity, size and placement of the fish pieces.

[0031] A fixing plate 14 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the conveyor frame 2. The top of the fixing plate 14 is set higher than the top of the conveyor roller of the conveyor mechanism 3. The fixing plate 14 is set directly below the upper frame 9 and the lower frame 10. Guide rollers 30 are rotatably connected to both sides of the inner side of the conveyor frame 2 relative to the fixing plate 14. The guide rollers 30 and the fixing plate 14 raise the conveyor belt of the conveyor mechanism 3. By setting the fixing plate 14 and the guide rollers 30, the output end below the upper frame 9 and the lower frame 10 can be raised, which makes it easy for the cod strips to come into contact with the cutting saw 25 after they are conveyed. Secondly, it can also position the bottom of the cod strips that fall from the upper frame 9 and the lower frame 10, ensuring that the cutting mechanism cuts the cod strips at a fixed distance.

[0032] The feeding mechanism includes an upper electric telescopic cylinder 15. An L-shaped top plate 16 is provided below the top frame 5 relative to the top of the side frame 7. A pair of upper electric telescopic cylinders 15 are provided, and both upper electric telescopic cylinders 15 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the top plate 16. The output end of the upper electric telescopic cylinder 15 passes through the inner side of the top plate 16 and is fixedly connected to a side plate 17. The bottom end of the side plate 17 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 18. The bottom end of the rotating shaft 18 is fixedly connected to a feeding frame 19. A fixed electric telescopic cylinder 20 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the feeding frame 19. A connecting plate 21 is fixedly connected to the output end of the fixed electric telescopic cylinder 20. L-shaped clamping plates 22 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom end of the connecting plate 21. A rear plate 23 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the feeding frame 19.

[0033] A circular electromagnet 24 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 18. The side plate 17 is made of iron. The circular electromagnet 24 can further limit the position of the top plate 16. An L-shaped groove 43 is provided at the top of the inner side of the side frame 7. The L-shaped groove 43 is provided to avoid obstructing the sliding of the card plate 22 and the back plate 23.

[0034] The cutting mechanism includes a pair of cutting chainsaws 25. A bottom frame 26 is fixedly connected between the side walls of the side frame 7. A bidirectional lead screw 27 is rotatably connected to the inside of the bottom frame 26. A pair of drive blocks 28 are slidably connected to the inside of the bottom frame 26. A drive motor 29 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the bottom frame 26. The output end of the drive motor 29 passes through the inside of the bottom frame 26 and is fixedly connected to the side wall of the bidirectional lead screw 27. The bidirectional lead screw 27 is threaded through and connected to the inner side wall of the drive block 28. A pair of cutting chainsaws 25 are provided, and both cutting chainsaws 25 are rotatably connected to the bottom end of the drive block 28. The saw teeth of the cutting chainsaws 25 are located at the bottom ends of the upper frame 9 and the lower frame 10. A baffle 45 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the cutting chainsaws 25.

[0035] The upper cutting mechanism includes a pair of bidirectional upper cutting electric saws 36. The two bidirectional upper cutting electric saws 36 are fixedly connected together. A top electric telescopic cylinder 37 is fixedly connected to the top of the top frame 5. The output end of the top electric telescopic cylinder 37 passes through the top frame 5 and is fixedly connected to the top of the bidirectional upper cutting electric saws 36. The saw teeth of the bidirectional upper cutting electric saws 36 are all set through the inside of the side frame 7. A pair of storage slots 38 for storing the saw teeth are opened at the bottom of the inside of the side frame 7.

[0036] During the feeding process of cod bricks on the narrow fryer 1, the cod bricks are first placed in the storage box 6. Then, the pusher electric telescopic cylinder 12 is started to drive the pusher plate 13 to move, so that the side wall of the pusher plate 13 is in contact with the side wall of the cod brick. Then, the cod brick is pushed to the side wall of the rear plate 23. Then, the bidirectional upward cutting electric saw 36 is started to drive the saw teeth to move back and forth. At the same time, the top electric telescopic cylinder 37 is started to drive the bidirectional upward cutting electric saw 36 to move downward. During the cutting process, the fixed electric telescopic cylinder 20 can be started to drive the connecting plate 21 and the clamping plate 22 to move downward, thereby driving the clamping plate 22 to be inserted into the two corners of the top of the rear cod plate. After the cutting is completed, the side end of the cod brick is cut into two cod bricks, and at the same time, the saw teeth of the bidirectional upward cutting electric saw 36 move into the storage groove 38.

[0037] At this point, the cod fillet located in front falls into the lower frame 10 under its own weight. Then, the upper electric telescopic cylinder 15 is activated, driving the side plate 17, rotating shaft 18, feeding frame 19, rear plate 23, and clamping plate 22 to move, thereby pushing the cod fillet within the side frame 7 until it moves above the upper frame 9. At this point, the cod fillet falls into the upper frame 9 under its own weight. The bottoms of the cod fillets in both the upper frame 9 and the lower frame 10 fall onto the conveyor belt of the conveying mechanism 3. Simultaneously, the cod fillet is moved away from the rear plate 23. Then, the drive motor 29 is activated, driving the bidirectional lead screw 27 to rotate, which in turn drives the two threaded drive blocks 2. 8 moves towards the center, driving the lower cutting saw 25 to move towards the center as well. At this time, the lower cutting saw 25 is turned on, which in turn drives the lower cutting saw 25 to cut the cod plate, cutting the bottom of the cod plate into strips at a fixed distance. After the lower cutting saw 25 has finished cutting, the baffle 45 will abut against the bottom of the upper frame 9 and the lower frame 10 to prevent the cod plate from falling. Then, the drive motor 29 is controlled to reverse, driving the lower cutting saw 25 and the baffle 45 to reset. At this time, the two cod strips on the conveyor mechanism 3 are removed, and the cod plate in the upper frame 9 and the lower frame 10 falls onto the conveyor belt. Then, the drive motor 29 is controlled to start again. This process is repeated to achieve longitudinal staggered continuous feeding on the narrow frying conveyor line.

[0038] In summary, through the design of the above structure, longitudinal staggered continuous feeding is achieved on the narrow frying conveyor line. The cod strips in the upper frame 9 and the lower frame 10 are cut and synchronously dropped onto the narrow frying conveyor line. The fish pieces in the upper frame 9 and the lower frame 10 form a staggered spacing in the longitudinal direction. Two pieces can be fed in a single cycle. This method achieves a doubling of longitudinal feeding density without increasing the width of the conveyor belt, significantly improving the feeding cycle and continuous operation efficiency of narrow line production.

[0039] Based on the above embodiments, it was found during use that the above feeding equipment adopts a fixed double-row feeding method on the wide frying conveyor line, which cannot flexibly adjust the number of feeding rows and the lateral layout according to the actual width of the conveyor belt. This results in a large amount of effective space being idle on both sides of the conveyor belt, low production capacity per unit area, and different specifications of equipment or cumbersome mechanical modifications required for production lines of different widths. The equipment lacks versatility, has high investment costs, and long changeover cycles, making it difficult to meet the needs of modern fish product processing for efficient and flexible production. To solve the above problems, further improvements were made to the above structure.

[0040] The bottom end of the drive block 28 has a notch. The rotating end of the downcutting electric saw 25 is fixedly connected to the toothed ring 31 relative to the position inside the notch. The side wall of the drive block 28 is slidably connected to a sliding block 32. The bottom end of the sliding block 32 is fixedly connected to a rack 33 that meshes with the toothed ring 31. The side wall of the sliding block 32 is threadedly connected to a pair of fixing bolts 34. The side wall of the drive block 28 has two pairs of threaded holes 35. The fixing bolts 34 are threadedly connected to one of the pairs of threaded holes 35.

[0041] A pair of rotary motors 39 are fixedly connected to the top of the top frame 5. The top plate 16 is rotatably connected to the inside of the top frame 5. The output ends of the rotary motors 39 pass through the top frame 5 and are fixedly connected to the rotating end of the top plate 16.

[0042] Each side frame 7 has an extension plate 40 fixedly connected to the bottom of the side away from the side. The top of the extension plate 40 has an extension groove 41. The bottom frame 26 has a bidirectional hydraulic telescopic cylinder 42 fixedly connected to the front side. The output end of the bidirectional hydraulic telescopic cylinder 42 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the upper frame 9.

[0043] When the feeding equipment needs to be installed on the wide fryer 1, first install the mounting plate 4 on the conveying mechanism 3, then control the start of the bidirectional hydraulic telescopic cylinder 42 to drive the upper frame 9 to move to both sides, so that the upper frame 9 moves from below the lower opening 8 to below the extension groove 41. Then control the de-energization of the circular electromagnet 24 to release the position fixation between the rotating shaft 18 and the side plate 17. Then control the start of the rotary motor 39 to drive the top plate 16 to rotate, which in turn drives the upper electric telescopic cylinder 15 and the side plate 17 to rotate. Since the outer wall of the feeding frame 19 is restricted by the inner side of the side frame 7 at this time, the feeding frame 19 will not rotate. After the angle of the top plate 16 is adjusted, the rotary motor 39 can be stopped and the circular electromagnet 24 can be energized.

[0044] Then unscrew the two fixing bolts 34 to release the sliding restriction of the rack 33 and the sliding block 32. Then push the rack 33 to move, which in turn drives the meshing gear ring 31 to rotate and drives the downcutting saw 25 to rotate. Adjust the angle of the saw teeth of the downcutting saw 25 and the baffle 45. After the adjustment is completed, screw the fixing bolts 34 into the other two threaded holes 35 to fix the position of the sliding block 32.

[0045] Subsequently, during equipment operation, the codfish bricks are pushed to the side of the rear plate 23. After being cut by the upper cutting mechanism, the fixed electric telescopic cylinder 20 is started, which drives the clamping plate 22 to be inserted into the two corners of the codfish plate. Then, the upper electric telescopic cylinder 15 is started. Since the position of the upper electric telescopic cylinder 15 has changed at this time, the upper electric telescopic cylinder 15 will pull the feeding frame 19 to move above the extension groove 41 and drive the codfish plate to move above the extension groove 41 to achieve automatic feeding. Then, during the operation of the lower cutting mechanism, since the saw teeth of the lower cutting electric saw 25 are oblique at this time, it can cut the codfish plates in the staggered upper frame 9 and lower frame 10.

[0046] In summary, the above structural design allows for adjustment of the positions between the upper frame 9 and the lower frame 10, as well as the positions of the feeding mechanism and the cutting mechanism. This enables coordinated feeding with lateral staggering and longitudinal connection between the front and rear rows, achieving a matrix arrangement of four pieces per group on a wide frying conveyor line. The upper frame 9 first places the fish pieces on both sides of the conveyor belt, followed by the lower frame 10 filling the middle position. As the conveyor belt moves forward, the front row continues to be supplemented, forming a neat array. This method fully utilizes the effective width of the wide conveyor belt, significantly increasing the feeding amount per unit area. Furthermore, it allows for flexible adjustment of the feeding mode according to different frying line widths, enhancing the equipment's adaptability to different production scenarios and reducing the cost of multi-line configuration for enterprises.

[0047] Finally, it should be noted that both the bidirectional upward-cutting electric saw 36 and the downward-cutting electric saw 25 are driven by a motor-driven crank-connecting rod mechanism, which drives the saw teeth to perform high-speed reciprocating linear motion to form a cutting action. At the same time, they cooperate with the drive components to make the saw teeth cut into the fish plate one by one, completing the fixed-distance slicing and strip cutting process. Therefore, the electric saw is a mature technology in the existing technology, and will not be described in detail here.

[0048] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention.

[0049] Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely the principles of the present invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the present invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the present invention as claimed.
