[0024] When working, the movable trolley 4 is moved to the designated position, and then the fruit enters from the feeding mechanism 2 and is sent to the sorting mechanism 3 through the feeding mechanism 2 to be sorted according to size. The sorted fruit finally flows into different positions of the corresponding sorting and collecting mechanism 5 to complete the classification.

[0025] like Figure 2As shown, in a fruit sorting device of the present invention, it also includes a mesh collecting mechanism 1, and the mesh collecting mechanism 1 is located above the feeding mechanism 2.

[0026] The mesh collection mechanism 1 includes a bracket 101, an annular frame 102 is arranged on the upper side of the bracket 101, an annular guide rail 103 is arranged on the side of the annular frame 102, a plurality of connecting blocks 104 are slidably arranged in the annular guide rail 103, two curved rods 105 are hinged in an X shape on the connecting block 104, and each adjacent two curved rods 105 are hinged together at the intersection.

[0027] The net surface collecting mechanism 1 is used for collecting fallen fruits in a large area. The plurality of curved rods 105 can be expanded and contracted by moving the connecting block 104. When expanded, fruits in a large area can be collected, and when contracted, it is easy to move and transport.

[0028] Combination Figure 3 In a fruit sorting device of the present invention, the feeding mechanism 2 includes two support rods 201 and a funnel 202 arranged on the top of the movable trolley 4, and two sliding sleeves 203 are arranged on both sides of the funnel 202, and the two sliding sleeves 203 are respectively sleeved on the two support rods 201.

[0029] Combination Figure 4 In a fruit sorting device of the present invention, the sorting mechanism 3 includes a sorting box 301, and two nuts 306 are arranged at the front end of the sorting box 301. The two nuts 306 are threadedly assembled on two lead screws 308. The two lead screws 308 are rotatably arranged on the top of the movable trolley 4. One end of the two lead screws 308 is transmission-matched with the driving end of the motor 309. The motor 309 is arranged on the top of the movable trolley 4. A plurality of rolling rods 304 are arranged on the inner side of the front end of the sorting box 301. The first fork-shaped connecting rods 304 are arranged on both inner sides of the sorting box 301. The connecting rod 302, a lower end of the first fork-shaped connecting rod 302 is hinged on the inner side of the sorting box 301, the other lower end of the first fork-shaped connecting rod 302 is connected to one end of an L-shaped connecting rod 307, one end of the L-shaped connecting rod 307 is also hinged to the side of the sorting box 301, the other end of the L-shaped connecting rod 307 is arranged on the top of the movable trolley 4, the two upper ends of the first fork-shaped connecting rod 302 are slidably arranged in a pair of sliding grooves arranged in an upper and lower manner on the side of the track frame 303, and a plurality of sorting grooves 305 arranged in an oblique lane are arranged on the rear side of the track frame 303.

[0030] The motor 309 is started, and the motor 309 drives the two lead screws 308 to rotate. At this time, the rear end of the sorting box 301 will move upward or downward under the action of the two L-shaped connecting rods 307. At the same time, the L-shaped connecting rod also drives the first fork-shaped connecting rod 302 to raise or lower the track frame 303. In the process of raising or lowering the track frame 303, one end of the multiple rolling rods 304 will move in the corresponding sorting groove 305 set on the rear side of the track frame 303, so as to adjust the distance between two adjacent rolling rods 304. The distance between the two rolling rods 304 gradually decreases from back to front, so as to classify fruits of different sizes.

[0031] The funnel 202 is placed on the top of the sorting box 301 , and the funnel 202 is adjusted accordingly as the sorting box 301 rises and falls.

[0032] A horizontal groove is arranged at the rear side of the sorting box 301. The front end of the rolling rod 304 extends out of the sorting groove 305 and then extends into the horizontal groove, which can ensure that the rolling rod 304 always remains in the same horizontal plane to prevent the fruit from leaking or tipping over.

[0033] Combination Figure 5 In a fruit sorting device of the present invention, the sorting and collecting mechanism 5 includes a box body 501 and a plurality of partitions 503. The two ends of the partitions 503 are slidably arranged in two pairs of guide grooves 502 arranged up and down on the inner side of the box body 501 through guide shafts. The two sides of the connected partitions 503 are hinged together through a second fork-shaped connecting rod 504. The side of the box body 504 is provided with a plurality of discharge ports, and a collection box 505 is correspondingly provided below the discharge ports.

[0034] The second fork-shaped connecting rod 504 is used to adjust the spacing between the partitions 503 to the desired spacing, so that the fruits of different sizes sorted by the rolling rods 304 will fall into the corresponding compartments 503 through the gaps between the rolling rods 304, and finally fall into the corresponding collection box 505 from the discharge port on one side of the box body 501, completing a series of sorting work according to the grade and quality of the fruits.

[0035] The above description shows and describes several preferred embodiments of the invention, but as mentioned above, it should be understood that the invention is not limited to the form disclosed herein, and should not be regarded as excluding other embodiments, but can be used in various other combinations, modifications and environments, and can be modified within the scope of the invention concept described herein through the above teachings or the technology or knowledge of the relevant field.
