DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The technical solution of the present invention is further described below through the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0018] Embodiment 1 The present invention provides an intelligent sorting machine, the overall structure of which is as follows Figure 1 As shown, it includes a mechanical sorting component 1, which is supported by a column 16. A first hopper 2 is arranged above the right section of the mechanical sorting component 1, an oscillation component 3 is connected to the lower part of the right section of the mechanical sorting component 1, an electronic detection component 4 is arranged below the mechanical sorting component 1, and a packaging device 5 is arranged below the electronic detection component 4.

[0019] The mechanical sorting component 1 and the oscillating component 3 are as follows Figure 2As shown, the mechanical sorting assembly 1 includes a screening belt 11, which is tilted and surrounded by baffles 12. A vertical plate 14 is installed on the right section of the screening belt 11, and the vertical plate 14 is arranged on the left side of the outlet of the first hopper 2. A gap is arranged between the vertical plate 14 and the screening belt 11 to allow a single layer of coins to pass through. Three coin screening areas 13 are processed in the left section of the screening belt 11, and the screening holes 134 in the coin screening area 13 are staggered, which is conducive to the smooth falling of coins when passing through the screening holes 134.

[0020] According to the different diameters of coins, three denomination coin screening areas 13 are set, which are the 10-cent coin screening area 131, the 50-cent coin screening area 132 and the 1-yuan coin screening area 133 from right to left. When mixed coins of different denominations pass through, the 10-cent coin with the smallest diameter falls through the 10-cent coin screening area 131 first, and the 1-yuan coin with the largest diameter falls through the last 1-yuan coin screening area 133. Electronic detection components 4 are respectively set below the 10-cent coin screening area 131, the 50-cent coin screening area 132 and the 1-yuan coin screening area 133, and a storage box 15 is set at the left end of the screening belt 11.

[0021] The outlet of the first hopper 2 is a flat opening, and the length of the outlet of the first hopper 2 is the same as the width of the screening belt 11 .

[0022] The oscillation assembly 3 includes a connecting block 31 , which is fixedly connected to the screening belt 11 , an oscillation rod 32 is connected below the connecting block 31 , and the oscillation rod 32 is driven by a motor 33 , which is mounted on a support plate 34 , and the support plate 34 is connected to the column 16 .

[0023] The electronic detection assembly 4 includes a strip hopper 41 arranged side by side above. The strip hopper 41 is as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the strip hopper 41 is in the shape of an inverted quadrangular pyramid, and the position corresponding to the strip hopper outlet 42 is the electronic detector feed port 43. The structure of the electronic detector 47 is as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the strip hopper outlet 42 is completely consistent with the electronic detector feed port 43, a fake and damaged coin outlet 45 is provided on the side of the electronic detector 47, a temporary storage box 46 is provided below the fake and damaged coin outlet 45, and a coin outlet 44 is provided below the electronic detector 47.

[0024] The structure of the packaging device 5 is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the packing device 5 has the same length as the electronic detection component 4, and includes a packing hopper 51 arranged side by side. The packing hopper 51 is in the shape of an inverted quadrangular pyramid. The outlet of the packing hopper 51 is connected to a packing machine 54, and a rounded corner 52 is processed at the connection position between the packing machine inlet 53 and the packing hopper 51 outlet. The rounded corner 52 can ensure that the coins pass through smoothly to avoid jamming. A packing machine outlet 55 is arranged on the side of the packing machine 54.

[0025] When a large number of coins are sorted and packaged by the present invention, the coins are directly put into the first hopper 2. After passing through the flat outlet of the first hopper 2, the coins are dispersed on the screening belt 11. Since the screening belt 11 is tilted, the coins can slowly move along the screening belt 11 when the oscillation component 3 is working. When passing through the gap between the vertical plate 14 and the screening belt 11, the overlapping coins can be blocked to ensure that the coins pass through a single layer. The coins slowly pass through the coin screening area 13, and the coins of different denominations fall into the corresponding coin screening area 13 and enter the strip hopper 41. Some coins that fail to fall into the strip hopper 41 smoothly enter the storage box 15 to wait for re-sorting.

[0026] The coins that have passed through the mechanical sorting assembly have only been preliminarily screened by coin diameter, and there may be misclassifications. For example, a dime coin cannot fall smoothly in the dime coin screening area 131 due to mutual squeezing, but falls in the one-yuan coin screening area 133. The game coins that may be mixed may also fall because they pass through the screening holes 134 with suitable diameters. In addition, the contaminated coins may no longer be suitable for continued circulation and need to be selected for separate processing, so further sorting, counterfeit detection, packaging and other steps are required.

[0027] The coins entering the strip hopper 41 then enter the electronic detector 47 of the corresponding denomination, and the coins with the same denomination and intact enter the packaging device 5 through the coin outlet 44. If the denomination does not match, or there is contamination, or it is a game coin, it enters the temporary storage box 46 through the fake and damaged coin outlet 45 and waits for manual processing.

[0028] The coins entering the packing device 5 will be packed according to the preset quantity, and will be pushed out through the packing machine outlet 55 and collected manually. No blocking plate is set at the packing machine outlet 55, ensuring that the packing machine 54 can operate continuously without causing waiting time due to untimely manual collection.

[0029] In addition, the electronic detection assembly 4 and the packaging device 5 of the present invention can be used separately. When the number of coins of a certain denomination is relatively concentrated or the coins of a certain denomination need to be specially identified and packaged, the coins can be directly put into the strip hopper 41.

[0030] Therefore, the present invention adopts the above-mentioned intelligent sorting machine, which can not only realize the rapid identification, sorting, counting and packaging of a large number of coins of different denominations, reduce the labor intensity of related staff and improve the sorting efficiency; but also can identify, count and package coins of a certain denomination separately, and optimize the sorting process.

[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify or replace the technical solution of the present invention with equivalents, and these modifications or equivalent replacements cannot cause the modified technical solution to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
