DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-8 A visual material sorting device includes a support platform 700, a material storage bin 100 is provided on the top of the support platform 700 near one side, a lifting and transporting assembly 200 is provided on the other side of the material storage bin 100, a return material assembly 600 is provided on the top of the support platform 700 near the middle position, a conveyor belt 300 is provided on the top of the return material assembly 600, a visual assembly 400 is installed on the top of the support platform 700 near one side, and a manipulator 500 is provided on the other side of the visual assembly 400, and the manipulator 500 is installed on the support platform 700.

[0027] Specifically, the material in the storage bin 100 falls onto the conveyor belt 300 through the lifting and transporting component 200. The visual component 400 is used to detect and identify the material on the conveyor belt 300. The detected material will be grabbed by the robot 500 and taken to the return material component 600, and then transported to the next process step.

[0028] The lifting and transporting assembly 200 includes a belt 201 located on the other side of the storage bin 100, a servo motor 202 is arranged between the belts 201, a receiving tray 203 is arranged on the other side of the belt 201, and a vibration tray 204 is installed at the bottom of the receiving tray 203, and a silicone baffle 205 is arranged on the belt 201.

[0029] Specifically, there is a partition on the belt 201, so the operation of the belt 201 will gradually increase the material in the storage bin 100. If there is too much material, it will spill out. Therefore, the material transported at one time can be controlled to a certain extent. There is a silicone baffle 205 at the bottom of the belt 201 to prevent the material from falling out and allow the belt to run smoothly. The material carried by the belt 201 will fall into the receiving tray 203. The bottom of the receiving tray 203 is equipped with a vibrating tray 204. The use of vibration feeding will distribute the material more dispersedly than direct feeding, which is more conducive to subsequent processing.

[0030] The conveyor belt 300 includes a short conveyor belt 301 located near one side of the top of the support platform 700 , a long conveyor belt 302 is provided on the other side of the short conveyor belt 301 , and a transverse return conveyor belt 303 is provided on the other side of the long conveyor belt 302 .

[0031] Specifically, after the material falls from the vibrating plate 204, due to the different speeds and heights of the short conveyor belt 301 and the long conveyor belt 302, the steps and differential speeds formed by the two conveyor belts can increase the spacing between the materials, allowing the materials to be separated further, which is conducive to visual inspection and identification;

[0032] The return material assembly 600 includes a return material lifting assembly 601 located near the middle position on the top of the support platform 700, a return material conveyor belt 602 is provided on the other side of the return material lifting assembly 601, and a return material bin 603 is provided on the top of the return material conveyor belt 602.

[0033] Specifically, the material picked up by the manipulator 500 will be placed in the return bin 603. When the material in the return bin 603 accumulates to a certain amount, the bin door is opened and the material is placed on the return conveyor belt 602 and can be used for the next process.

[0034] Example 2: This example is an improvement made on the basis of Example 1. For details, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8, threaded rods 401 are movably passed through the rear side of the visual component 400 near both sides, the front ends of the threaded rods 401 are rotatably connected to the mounting plates 406, and the tops of the mounting plates 406 are fixedly connected to the visual component 400, and a drive motor 404 is provided at the rear end of the threaded rod 401 on the other side, and the end of the power output shaft of the drive motor 404 is fixedly connected to the adjacent threaded rod 401, and the bottom of the drive motor 404 is fixedly connected to the support plate 405, and the outer periphery of the threaded rod 401 is threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve 402, and the wiping cotton 403 is fixedly installed on the opposite side of the threaded sleeve 402.

[0035] When cleaning the visual component 400 , the rotation of the two threaded rods 401 enables the threaded sleeve 402 to clean the visual component 400 through the wiping cotton 403 under the limitation of the limiting block 4021 and the limiting rod 4022 , thereby improving the detection effect.

[0036] Synchronous wheels are fixedly sleeved on the outer circumference of the threaded rod 401 near the rear end, and a synchronous belt 4011 is sleeved between the synchronous wheels.

[0037] The top of the threaded sleeve 402 is fixedly mounted with a limiting block 4021 , and the front side of the limiting block 4021 movably passes through the limiting rod 4022 , and the front end of the limiting rod 4022 is fixedly connected to the adjacent mounting plate 406 .

[0038] Specifically, the threaded sleeve 402 can be limited when moving by providing a limiting block 4021 and a limiting rod 4022 .

[0039] Working Principle: When the present invention is in use, the material in the storage bin 100 is dropped onto the conveyor belt 300 by the lifting and transporting assembly 200. The visual assembly 400 is used to detect and identify the material on the conveyor belt 300. The detected material is then grabbed by the manipulator 500 and taken to the return assembly 600 for transport to the next process step.

[0040] There are partitions on the belt 201, so the operation of the belt 201 will gradually increase the material in the storage bin 100. If there is too much material, it will spill out. Therefore, the material transported at one time can be controlled to a certain extent. There is a silicone baffle 205 at the bottom of the belt 201 to prevent the material from falling out and ensure the smooth operation of the belt. The material carried by the belt 201 will fall into the receiving tray 203. The bottom of the receiving tray 203 is equipped with a vibrating tray 204. The use of vibration feeding will distribute the material more dispersedly than direct feeding, which is more conducive to subsequent processing.

[0041] After the material falls from the vibrating plate 204, due to the different speeds and heights of the short conveyor belt 301 and the long conveyor belt 302, the steps and differential speeds formed by the two conveyor belts can increase the spacing between the materials, allowing the materials to be separated more widely, which is conducive to visual inspection and identification;

[0042] The materials picked up by the robot 500 are placed in the return bin 603. When the materials in the return bin 603 accumulate to a certain amount, the bin door opens and the materials are placed on the return conveyor belt 602, and then can be used for the next process (for example, packaging, etc.). The main purpose here is to show that it can grab a certain amount of materials before transporting them to the next step.

[0043] The contents not described in detail in this specification belong to the prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0044] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
