Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of seed processing equipment, specifically to a seed separation and bagging device and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] After the seeds are processed, they need to be separated before being weighed and bagged to remove light impurities and dust, thereby improving the appearance of the seeds and the quality of germination later.

[0003] In existing technologies, the separation and processing of such seeds is generally carried out using a vibrating screen. After the seeds to be separated are placed on the screen surface of the vibrating screen, the screen is started. The vibrating screen generates a shaking sensation on the screen surface, causing slight vibrations to the seeds to be separated. During this slight vibration, the light impurities generated pass through the screen surface and fall into the collection bin for centralized collection. This vibrating screen operation method has the following drawbacks. For example, the vibrating screen surface moves quite violently, causing intense friction between the seeds and the screen surface. For some hard seeds, this operation method can improve the separation efficiency of seeds and impurities. However, for some seeds with more fragile seed coats, this intense friction between the seeds and the screen surface and the seed coat for a long time can easily cause the seed coat to crack and damage the seeds. In addition, during the intense collision between the seeds and the screen surface, some light impurity particles are also thrown up and fall onto the screen surface, and are later packaged in a quantitative manner along with the seeds.

[0017] The compression spring is sleeved on the part of one end of the position adjusting lever located in the inside of the installation box and is used for pushing one end of the position adjusting lever to reciprocally displace in the inside of the installation box.

It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are only used to explain the present application and do not limit the present application.

[0032] EMBODIMENT

[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 The seed separation and bagging device provided in the embodiment of the present application comprises:

[0034] The base 1 is used to stably support the entire seed separation and bagging device;

[0035] The separation tank 5 is installed at the upper end of the base 1 and is used to remove dust from the incoming seeds to separate the seeds from the dust and impurities and to bag the separated seeds;

[0036] The correction assembly is obliquely installed on one side of the separation tank 5 and is used to correct the position of the seeds entering the inside of the separation tank 5, so as to avoid the seeds falling quickly at the outlet position of the separation tank 5 when the dust is separated, thereby causing the obstruction of the outlet position of the separation tank 5; and

[0037] The air supply assembly is connected to the bottom end of the separation tank 5 and is used to introduce high-pressure air flow into the bottom end of the separation tank 5, and the generated high-pressure air flow is used to separate the seeds and dust entering the inside of the separation tank 5 by weight, and the dust discharged from the upper end of the separation tank 5 is collected;

[0038] In the embodiment of the present application, when the seed separation and bagging device is used, the air supply assembly connected to the lower end of the separation tank 5 introduces high-pressure air flow into the inside of the separation tank 5, and the generated high-pressure air flow rises and falls from bottom to top in the separation tank 5. At the same time, after the seeds to be separated and impurities enter the inside of the separation tank 5, different gravity effects are generated in the separation tank 5 due to the different weights of the impurities and the seeds, and the high-pressure air flow introduced into the bottom end of the separation tank 5, so that the separation by weight is easily generated.

[0039] At the same time, the seeds entering the inside of the separation tank 5 will hit the correction assembly at the moment of entering, and then fall after position adjustment, so as to avoid the blockage of the outlet of the separation tank 5 by the seeds; meanwhile, the residence time of the seeds in the inside of the separation tank 5 can be delayed, and thus the separation effect of the high-pressure gas flow connected to the bottom end of the separation tank 5 on the seeds and impurities can be improved; in addition, the gas supply assembly installed can also collect the dust raised in the inside of the separation tank 5.

[0040] In an embodiment of the present application, the separation tank 5 is connected to a material guiding inclined pipe 8 at one side upper end, the material guiding inclined pipe 8 is in L shape, the material guiding inclined pipe 8 is installed in an inclined manner, and a feeding hopper 6 is installed at the other side upper end of the material guiding inclined pipe 8; when it is needed to put the seed particles 7 into the inside of the separation tank 5, the seed particles 7 are put into the inside of the feeding hopper 6, and then roll into the inside of the separation tank 5 along the material guiding inclined pipe 8 connected to the lower end of the feeding hopper 6 and by the kinetic energy generated by the gravity of the seed particles 7; the material guiding inclined pipe 8 arranged can effectively avoid that a large amount of seed particles 7 enter the inside of the separation tank 5 at the same time and cause the blockage of the inside of the separation tank 5, and can also make the seed particles 7 enter the inside of the separation tank 5 in an orderly manner.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 2 In an embodiment of the present application, the bottom end of the separation tank 5 is connected to a discharging pipe 11, the lower end of the discharging pipe 11 extends into the inside of the base 1, the lower end of the discharging pipe 11 extending into the inside of the base 1 is connected to a discharging port 12 at a transverse side, an inclined plate 18 is fixedly installed in an inclined manner at the position where the lower end of the discharging pipe 11 is connected to one end of the discharging port 12, and a gas supply assembly is connected to the middle lower end of the inclined plate 18.

[0042] The seed particles 7 flowing into the inside of the separation tank 5 through the material guiding inclined pipe 8 fall into the inside of the discharging pipe 11 by the gravity of the seed particles 7 and the position adjustment of the correction assembly; the seed particles 7 falling into the inside of the discharging pipe 11 finally flow out from the position of the discharging port 12 through the inclined plate 18 fixedly installed in an inclined manner; at this time, a quantitative packaging assembly can be installed at the position of the discharging port 12, and the quantitative packaging assembly arranged is used for the quantitative packaging operation of the seed particles 7 flowing out from the position of the discharging port 12; in addition, the gas supply assembly installed at the position of the lower end of the inclined plate 18 can introduce high-pressure gas flow into the inside of the discharging pipe 11.

[0044] The position adjusting push rod 10 is obliquely slidably installed at one end of the separating tank 5 and extends to the position where the guide chute 8 is connected to the separating cavity 9, and is used for colliding with the seed particles 7 falling into the separating cavity 9 by gravity, adjusting the position of the seed particles 7 and prolonging the residence time of the seed particles 7 in the separating cavity 9;

[0045] The mounting box 17 is mounted at one side of the separating tank 5 and is used for supporting one end of the position adjusting push rod 10; and

[0046] The compression spring 16 is sleeved on the part of one end of the position adjusting push rod 10 located in the mounting box 17 and is used for pushing one end of the position adjusting push rod 10 to reciprocally displace in the mounting box 17;

[0047] In the embodiment of the present application, when the seed particles 7 rolling and displacing in the guide chute 8 quickly flow into the separating cavity 9, the kinetic energy generated by the seed particles 7 quickly rolling and displacing in the guide chute 8 collides with the position adjusting push rod 10 when the seed particles 7 just reach the position of the separating cavity 9, and the collision generates extrusion impact force on one end of the position adjusting push rod 10; the extrusion impact force pushes one end of the position adjusting push rod 10 to slide in the mounting box 17; when one end of the position adjusting push rod 10 slides, one end of the position adjusting push rod 10 extrudes and deforms the compression spring 16 to generate elastic force, which is used for pushing the position adjusting push rod 10 to return to the initial state, so as to perform the quick position calibration operation on the next falling seed particle 7;

[0048] In one embodiment of the present application, the air supply assembly comprises the dust removal box 3 and the air pump 14; the dust removal box 3 is arranged in the base 1 and is provided with the dust discharge hopper 2 at the bottom end; one end of the dust removal box 3 is connected to the air inlet pipe 4, and one end of the air inlet pipe 4 is connected to the top end in the separating tank 5; the other end of the dust removal box 3 is connected to the air pump 14 through the air outlet pipe 15, and the air pump 14 is arranged in the base 1; one end of the air pump 14 is connected to the air guide pipe 13, and one end of the air guide pipe 13 is connected to the bottom end in the discharge pipe 11;

[0049] When the air supply assembly is used to supply high-pressure air flow into the separating tank 5, the air pump 14 is started, and the air pump 14 operates to cause a negative pressure state in the dust removal box 3; at the same time, the dust particles raised in the separating tank 5 are sucked into the dust removal box 3 through the air inlet pipe 4 connected to one end of the dust removal box 3; after the dust particles enter the dust removal box 3, the dust particles are deposited, and the deposited dust particles are discharged through the dust discharge hopper 2 connected to the bottom end of the dust removal box 3; the air purified by the dust removal box 3 enters the air pump 14 again, and then the air pump 14 pressurizes the purified air and then delivers the pressurized air to the discharge pipe 11 through the air guide pipe 13, so as to raise the dust particles to be deposited in the separating tank 5 again and then deliver the dust particles to the dust removal box 3 through the air inlet pipe 4 again for reuse;

[0050] Please refer toFigure 3 In one embodiment of the present application, the dust removal tank 3 is internally spaced apart by partitions 19, and the partitions 19 installed inside the dust removal tank 3 form filter gaps between adjacent partitions 19, and a filter screen 20 is installed at the upper end of the filter gap;

[0051] When the air containing dust particles enters the dust removal tank 3 through the air inlet pipe 4, the air containing dust particles can only pass through the filter gap due to the filter gaps formed between the partitions 19 installed inside the dust removal tank 3. When the dust particles pass through the filter gap, part of the dust particles will be deposited and fall off due to their own gravity, and the finally fallen dust particles will be discharged through the dust discharge hopper 2.

When the seed separation and bagging device is used, high-pressure airflow is introduced into the separation tank 5 through the air supply assembly connected to the lower end of the separation tank 5. The generated high-pressure airflow rises and falls from bottom to top inside the separation tank 5. At the same time, after the seeds to be separated and impurities enter the separation tank 5, different gravity effects are generated in the separation tank 5 due to the different weights of the impurities and the seeds, and the high-pressure airflow introduced into the bottom end of the separation tank 5, thus easily producing light separation.

[0054] II. The seeds entering the separation tank 5 will collide with the correction assembly at the moment of entering, and then fall after position adjustment to avoid blocking the outlet of the separation tank 5. At the same time, the residence time of the seeds in the separation tank 5 is delayed, thereby improving the separation effect of the high-pressure airflow introduced into the bottom end of the separation tank 5 on the seeds and impurities.
