DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0040] Example 1

[0041] A bamboo shoot breaking and processing system, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a conveying component for conveying bamboo shoots, a clamping component 2 arranged near the end of the conveyor belt and used for clamping and transferring materials on the conveying component 1, a breaking component 3 clamped and docked with the clamping component 2 and fixed and broken the materials on the clamping component 2, and a receiving tray 4 arranged below the breaking component 3;

[0042] The clamping component 2 includes a first telescopic device, a steering wheel 201 connected to the first telescopic device, and a first clamping member connected to the steering wheel 201;

[0043] The breaking component 3 includes a chassis 301 and a rotating disk 302 arranged on the top of the chassis 301, and the chassis 301 and the rotating disk 302 are connected by a rotating shaft 303; a support plate 304 that can be telescopically extended up and down is provided on the upper surface of the chassis 301, a second telescopic device 305 is provided between the support plate 304 and the chassis 301, and three breaking clamps that can move up and down are provided on the support plate 304; six second clamps are provided on the lower surface of the rotating disk 302, and the second clamps are respectively connected with the first clamps and the breaking clamps.

[0044] In this embodiment, the three split clamping members on the support plate 304 are arranged on a side away from the conveyor belt. The receiving tray 4 is arranged close to the support plate 304, and the upper part of the receiving tray 4 is the second clamping member on the rotating disk 302.

[0045] In this embodiment, an angle is formed between the breaking positions of two adjacent breaking clamps among the three breaking clamps, and the angle is not greater than 90°. The certain angle formed between the breaking clamps can ensure that different breaking points are reached when breaking at different points, so that the bamboo shoots are split into different numbers of portions. The angle can be adjusted according to the size of the bamboo shoots and the number of portions to be cut.

[0046] In this embodiment, the conveyor belt includes a conveyor chain 101 and material holding slots 102 that are evenly arranged above the conveyor chain 101; the material holding slot 102 is provided with a clamping holding cavity 103. The material holding slot 102 is generally set to be concave, and the concave material holding slot 102 has a positioning function to prevent the movement of the bamboo shoots during the grabbing process. The clamping holding cavity 103 is set on the material holding slot 102, and the head of the bamboo shoot is placed close to the clamping holding cavity 103, so that the first clamping member can completely grasp the bamboo shoot, and the friction between the first clamping member and the material holding slot 102 is effectively reduced. At the same time, the head of the bamboo shoot is exposed, which is convenient for the subsequent clamping of the second clamping member.

[0047] In this embodiment, a rotation drive 202 is provided at the top end of the first telescopic device. The rotation drive 202 is axially connected to the steering wheel 201 and drives the steering wheel 201 to rotate in the vertical direction.

[0048] Specifically, the first telescopic device is preferably a telescopic cylinder 206, and the rotary drive 202 can be pneumatic or electric. After the first clamping member grabs the bamboo shoot, the rotary drive 202 is started to rotate the steering wheel 201 90 degrees, so that the bamboo shoot is in a vertical state, so that the head of the bamboo shoot is exposed. The first telescopic device is started to move the first clamping member upward to a height that can be docked with the second clamping member on the rotating disk 302, so that the second clamping member clamps the head of the bamboo shoot, thereby achieving the purpose of transferring the bamboo shoot.

[0049] Among them, the first telescopic device includes a sliding rod 204 and a telescopic chain 205. The steering wheel 201 is mounted on the sliding rod 204 through a fixing member 207, and the fixing member 207 is connected to a reciprocating telescopic chain 205. The two ends of the reciprocating telescopic chain 205 are respectively connected to a telescopic cylinder 206. The steering wheel 201 is driven to move up and down repeatedly by the telescopic cylinder 206 pulling the two ends of the chain.

[0050] The first clamping member includes a first clamping head and a first clamping drive 208 for controlling the opening and closing of the first clamping head; the first clamping drive 208 has the same structure as the second clamping drive. The first clamping head is composed of two identical clips 203; one end of the two clips 203 is connected, and the middle of the two clips 203 is provided with a rotating shaft 303. The two clips 203 are sleeved on the rotating shaft so that the two clips 203 rotate along the rotating shaft, and a telescopic spring is provided between the two clips 203. A pneumatic telescopic push rod is provided in the first clamping drive 208, and the telescopic push rod is started to push, and a thrust is applied to one end connected to the two clips 203, so that the two clips 203 rotate, thereby opening the two clips 203; when the pneumatic telescopic push rod is recovered, the rebound force of the telescopic spring pulls the two clips 203 together to achieve the clamping of the bamboo shoots.

[0051] In this embodiment, the second clamping member is disposed on the lower surface of the rotating disk 302. The second clamping member includes a second clamping head and a second clamping drive for controlling the opening and closing of the second clamping head; one of the two clamping pieces 203 in the second clamping member is a U-shaped groove 317 (a), and the other is a protrusion 319 that cooperates with the U-shaped groove 317 (a). The U-shaped groove 317 (a) and the protrusion 319 are respectively on two oppositely arranged arc-shaped connecting rods 316 (a), and the arc-shaped connecting rod 316 (a) is provided with a positioning shaft 320, and the arc-shaped connecting rod 316 (a) is rotatably sleeved on the positioning shaft 320 and can rotate on the positioning shaft 320.

[0052] The second clamping drive includes a push rod 322 and a tension spring 323; both ends of the spring are respectively fixed on the two arc-shaped connecting rods 316 (a), and drive the arc-shaped connecting rods 316 (a) to contract;

[0053] The ends of the two arc-shaped connecting rods 316 (a) opposite to the U-shaped groove 317 (a) and the protrusion 319 are connected to form a contact 321; the push rod 322 is in contact with the contact 321, and the push rod 322 pushes the contact 321 to drive the two arc-shaped connecting rods 316 (a) apart, so that the protrusion 319 and the U-shaped groove 317 (a) are opposite to each other to squeeze and clamp the material. When the push rod 322 retreats and the force acting on the contact 321 disappears, the two arc-shaped connecting rods 316 (a) are merged by the rebound force of the tension spring 323, and the U-shaped groove 317 (a) and the protrusion 319 reach a merged state. The push of the push rod 322 is generally preferably started, and the force on the contact 321 is controlled by pneumatically driving the push rod 322 to extend and retract.

[0054] In this embodiment, the breaking clamping member includes a breaking clamping head and a breaking clamping drive 315 for controlling the opening and closing of the breaking clamping head;

[0055] The breaking clamping head includes a U-shaped groove 317 (b) with an arc-shaped connecting rod 316 (b) and a needle knife 318 with a connecting rod 316 (b) arranged to cooperate with the U-shaped groove 317 (b). The needle knife 318 passes through the material and is connected to the concave surface of the U-shaped groove 317 (b).

[0056] In the breaking clamping head, the U-shaped groove 317 (b) and the needle knife 318 are respectively arranged on two oppositely arranged arc-shaped connecting rods 316 (b), and the other end of the arc-shaped connecting rod 316 (b) is provided with a connecting piece 325, and the connecting piece 325 forms an angle with the arc-shaped connecting rod 316 (b). The connecting piece 325 has a rotating hole, and the rotating hole passes through the fixed shaft 326, and the connecting piece 325 can rotate on the fixed shaft 326. A telescopic rod 327 is fixedly connected below the connecting piece 325, and the telescopic rod 327 can achieve the upward push and downward reset of the connecting piece 325. In this way, the opening and closing of the breaking clamping head is achieved, and the telescopic rod adopts a telescopic cylinder.

[0057] In this embodiment, the first clamping drive 208, the second clamping drive and the breaking clamping drive 315 are pneumatic drives. The first telescopic device and the second telescopic device 305 are telescopic cylinders; the bottom of the rotating shaft 303 is connected to a pneumatic rotating device.

[0058] The driving components in the present invention are not limited to pneumatic, and the purpose can also be achieved by electric or mechanical starting.

[0059] Working principle: Bamboo shoots are placed in the material holding slot 102 of the conveyor belt in sequence, with the heads exceeding the clamping holding chamber 103. After being conveyed to the bottom of the end clamping component 2, the first telescopic device starts to contract, causing the clamping component 2 to fall. After the first clamping member in the clamping component 2 grabs the bamboo shoots, the rotary drive 202 starts to rotate the steering wheel 201 90°, so that the bamboo shoots are in a vertical state, exposing the heads of the bamboo shoots. The first telescopic device starts to telescope and move the first clamping member upward to a height that can dock with the second clamping member on the rotating disk 302.

[0060] The second clamping drive is started, so that the push rod 322 of the second clamping drive is in contact with the contact 321, and the push rod 322 pushes the contact 321 to drive the two arc-shaped connecting rods 316 (a) to separate, so that the protrusion 319 and the U-shaped groove 317 (a) are relatively matched to squeeze and clamp the head of the bamboo shoot. The rotating shaft 303 drives the rotating disk 302 on the top to rotate, and the six second clamping members on the lower surface of the rotating disk 302 are clamping member No. 1 306, clamping member No. 2 307, clamping member No. 308, clamping member No. 4 309, clamping member No. 5 310 and clamping member No. 6 311. After the No. 1 clamping piece 306 is at the starting position and clamps the bamboo shoots, the rotating disk 302 rotates to make the No. 2 clamping piece 307 reach above the first clamping piece to clamp the bamboo shoots, and so on. When the No. 1 clamping piece 306 reaches the No. 1 breaking clamping piece 312, the No. 1 breaking clamping piece 312 rises and clamps the bamboo shoots, and then the needle knife 318 is inserted into the bamboo shoots and moves downward to achieve the first split.

[0061] The rotating disk 302 rotates continuously, and when the No. 1 clamp 306 reaches the No. 2 splitting clamp 313, the bamboo shoots are split for the second time. At this time, the No. 1 splitting clamp 312 splits the bamboo shoots on the No. 2 clamp 307 for the first time, and the No. 3 splitting clamp 314 splits the next bamboo shoots, and the three splitting clamps can split the bamboo shoots three times. After the No. 1 clamp 306 is split for the third time, it continues to rotate to the receiving tray 4, and the second clamping drive in the No. 1 clamp 306 opens the second clamp, and the split bamboo shoots fall into the receiving tray 4, completing the operation.

[0062] The rotation of the rotating disk 302 is a point-type rotation, that is, it reaches the specified position after one rotation. The transportation of the conveyor belt is also a point-type transportation, and is synchronized with the point-type rotation of the rotating disk to ensure that each bamboo shoot can be clamped and divided into two.

[0063] The rotating point is set to the specified position by the torque setting of the cylinder or motor. The conveying distance of the conveyor belt can also be set according to the torque setting of the conveyor belt drive motor to achieve point-to-point conveying.

[0064] A position sensor 324 is provided on each second clamping member. The position sensor 324 transmits the sensed position of the receiving tray 4 and the first clamping member to the control system, and the control system controls the opening and closing of the second clamping member at this point to achieve the purpose of loading and unloading. The main functions of the control system in the present invention are signal reception and command control. The command control mainly controls the drive of each motor and cylinder to achieve telescopic operation. The control function of the control system is a conventional function known to those skilled in the art. The control system can be controlled by an existing conventional PLC or control circuit board. The technical control technology is a conventional technology in this field, and its structure and principle are not repeated here.

[0065] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present invention are introduced in detail above. Specific examples are used herein to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the embodiments of the present invention. The description of the above embodiments is only applicable to help understand the principles of the embodiments of the present invention. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the embodiments of the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scopes. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
