Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of particle counting machines, and in particular relates to an intelligent material counting and placing system. Background Art

[0002] The grain counting machine is used for counting and packaging of granular materials such as medicines and buttons. Usually, the materials need to be put into packaging containers after counting. In the use of traditional grain counting machines, the materials are directly unloaded into the material carrying device after counting the grains, which makes the reaction time of the material carrying device when carrying the granular materials short. If there are too many granular materials, errors are likely to occur. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a material intelligent counting and placing system with simple structure and reasonable design in order to solve the above problems.

[0004] The present invention achieves the above-mentioned purpose through the following technical solutions:

[0005] The intelligent material counting and placing system comprises a pellet counting machine body, a conveyor body and a control machine, wherein the pellet counting machine body comprises a linear vibration feeding mechanism, a discharge port of the linear vibration feeding mechanism is provided with a photoelectric detector, an output end of the photoelectric detector is electrically connected to an input end of the control machine, the photoelectric detector counts the pellet materials discharged from the discharge port of the linear vibration feeding mechanism, a dividing plate mechanism is provided below the linear vibration feeding mechanism, the dividing plate mechanism carries the pellet materials, a control opening plate is provided at the lower part of the dividing plate mechanism, and when the control opening plate is opened, the carried pellet materials fall.

[0006] As a further optimization solution of the present invention, the indexing plate mechanism includes a indexing plate, and the outer surface of the indexing plate is provided with storage slots, and the number of the storage slots is at least two groups.

[0007] As a further optimization scheme of the present invention, the control opening plate includes a gate plate in contact with the bottom surface of the dividing plate, the surface of the gate plate is provided with a blanking groove, and the surface area of ​​the gate plate is larger than the bottom surface area of ​​the dividing plate, and the surface of the gate plate other than the overlapping surface of the dividing plate is provided with a bearing column, and the control opening plate also includes a discharge cylinder controlled by a control machine, and the discharge cylinder is in contact with the bearing column when it is actuated.

[0008] As a further optimization scheme of the present invention, an optical fiber detection plate is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the upper end of the dividing plate, and the counting machine body also includes a photoelectric trigger, and the output end of the photoelectric trigger is electrically connected to the input end of the control machine.

[0009] As a further optimization scheme of the present invention, a torsion spring is arranged between the dividing plate and the gate plate, and the dividing plate mechanism also includes a servo motor connected to the control machine, and the output shaft of the servo motor is fixedly connected to a connecting rod, and the connecting rod connects the dividing plate and the gate plate.

[0010] As a further optimization solution of the present invention, a rear limit cylinder lever and a front limit cylinder lever are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the counting machine body, and the indexing plate mechanism is located at an upper position between the two.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the present invention is provided with a dividing plate mechanism, which is used to temporarily store granular materials, and the conveyor belt keeps running. When the material in the storage slot on the surface of the dividing plate reaches a certain amount, the servo motor drives the dividing plate to rotate and place another storage slot below the discharge port. After the overall amount reaches the requirement, the dividing plate and the bearing column are rotated to cooperate with the discharge cylinder, so that the discharge slot and the storage slot overlap and communicate with each other, so that the material falls into the material carrying device between the rear limit cylinder gear rod and the front limit cylinder gear rod, and when dealing with materials of different particle sizes or carrying and transporting different amounts of granular materials, it is only necessary to replace the dividing plate. The purpose is achieved; in addition, the device utilizes a dividing plate to discharge materials in various storage grooves into a carrier on the surface of the conveyor belt, and can arrange them into specific shapes. For example, a dividing plate with three storage grooves can arrange three red dates into a triangle after discharging materials, and a dividing plate with five storage grooves can arrange five red dates into a pentagon after discharging materials. This shape of arrangement is convenient for the subsequent process to check the quantity of materials, and is also convenient for some packaging that requires materials (food) to be placed in a specific shape. The device adopts a single motor with a photoelectric sensor to drive and control to achieve the storage and release effects of materials. The structure is relatively simple and the operation is relatively convenient. It is suitable for counting and discharging multi-particle materials. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0018] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is necessary to point out here that the following specific implementation methods are only used to further illustrate the present application and cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present application. Technical personnel in this field can make some non-essential improvements and adjustments to the present application based on the above application content.

[0019] Example 1

[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, the material intelligent counting and placing system includes a counting machine body 1, a conveyor body 2 and a control machine, the counting machine body 1 includes a linear vibration feeding mechanism 5, the discharge port of the linear vibration feeding mechanism 5 is provided with a photoelectric detector, the output end of the photoelectric detector is electrically connected to the input end of the control machine, the photoelectric detector counts the granular materials discharged from the discharge port of the linear vibration feeding mechanism 5, a dividing plate mechanism 4 is provided below the linear vibration feeding mechanism 5, the dividing plate mechanism 4 carries the granular materials, and a control opening plate is provided at the bottom of the dividing plate mechanism 4, when the control opening plate is opened, the carried granular materials fall. The outer surface of the counting machine body 1 is fixedly connected with a rear limit cylinder lever 6 and a front limit cylinder lever 7, and the dividing plate mechanism 4 is located at an upper position between the two.

[0021] When in use, the conveyor body 2 is used to transport the material carrying device, which can be a box structure or other carrying structures. A photoelectric sensor can also be set between the rear limit cylinder lever 6 and the front limit cylinder lever 7. When the carrying device enters between the rear limit cylinder lever 6 and the front limit cylinder lever 7, the two levers extend. The two levers can also be started at a constant frequency according to the running speed of the conveyor body 2 and the placement distance of the front and rear material carrying devices to ensure that the carrying device is located below the indexing plate mechanism 4. At this time, the control machine starts to control the opening of the plate to put down the counted materials.

[0022] Example 2

[0023] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, in order to continuously count and discharge the granular material when the counting amount is large, and cooperate with the material collecting device, the following improvements are made, such as Figure 2-5As shown, the indexing plate mechanism 4 includes an indexing plate 42, the outer surface of which is provided with storage slots, and the number of the storage slots is at least two groups; the control opening plate includes a gate plate 43 in contact with the bottom surface of the indexing plate 42, the surface of the gate plate 43 is provided with a blanking slot, and the surface area of ​​the gate plate 43 is larger than the bottom surface area of ​​the indexing plate 42, and the surface of the gate plate 43 other than the overlap with the indexing plate 42 is provided with a bearing column 45, and the control opening plate also includes a discharge cylinder 3 controlled by a control machine, and the discharge cylinder 3 contacts the bearing column 45 when it is in action; the upper end of the indexing plate 42 An optical fiber detection plate 41 is fixedly connected to the outer surface, and the counting machine body 1 also includes a photoelectric trigger, and the output end of the photoelectric trigger is electrically connected to the input end of the control machine; a torsion spring 46 is arranged between the dividing plate 42 and the gate plate 43, and the dividing plate mechanism 4 also includes a servo motor 49 connected to the control machine, and the output shaft of the servo motor 49 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod, and the connecting rod connects the dividing plate 42 and the gate plate 43; a torsion spring sealing plate 44 and a dividing plate locking plate 48 are also arranged at the bottom end of the connecting rod, and the output shaft of the servo motor 49 is fixedly connected to the dividing plate 42 and the gate plate 43 through a dividing plate flange 47.

[0024] When in use, the material falls from the discharge port of the linear vibration feeding mechanism 5, is counted by the photoelectric detector, and falls into the storage slot on the surface of the indexing plate 42. At this time, the material dropping slot of the gate plate 43 does not overlap with the storage slot. Therefore, the material is stored in the storage slot. The number of storage slots is selected as five groups for illustration in this embodiment. When the material stored in one group of storage slots reaches a specified number, the control machine controls the servo motor 49 to start, and the servo motor 49 drives the indexing plate 42 and the gate plate 43 to rotate simultaneously, and the other storage slot is turned to the lower part of the discharge port of the linear vibration feeding mechanism 5. When the indexing plate 42 returns to the starting position after rotating one circle, a photoelectric trigger is arranged below the starting position (this position is an implementation mode in this embodiment), and the photoelectric detection plate 41 triggers the photoelectric trigger. After receiving the signal, the control machine controls the discharge cylinder 3 to start. At this time, the output shaft of the discharge cylinder 3 extends and contacts with the bearing column 45. When the control machine controls the servo motor 49 to start again, the indexing plate 42 rotates, and the gate plate 43 cannot rotate. The blanking slot is connected to the storage slot, and the material falls directly into the material carrying device of the rear limit cylinder lever 6 and the front limit cylinder lever 7 to complete the discharge.

[0025] It should be noted that, when the material intelligent counting and placing system is in use, the position of the photoelectric trigger only needs to satisfy the requirement that the photoelectric detection plate 41 rotates to block and trigger the photoelectric trigger after the storage slot is full of materials. The photoelectric trigger, photoelectric detector and photoelectric sensor mentioned in embodiments 1 and 2 can be beam blocking sensors, and the model can be PB-10NS model, or other types of photoelectric sensors can be used. The control machine uses AT80S51 single-chip microcomputer control system, or other controllers can be used to meet the hierarchical control function. The servo motor 42 can be a conventional servo motor, and there are no other special requirements.

[0026] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
