[0003] If fruits and vegetables are not sorted by maturity and sweetness before transportation, the consumer experience is poor, the product quality is difficult to guarantee, the risk of returns and complaints increases significantly, and it is difficult to control the environment during storage and transportation. Fruits and vegetables are prone to accelerate spoilage and decay due to individual differences, and the loss rate increases. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention discloses a fruit and vegetable sorting and conveying rack, aiming to solve the technical problems that if fruits and vegetables are not sorted by maturity and sweetness before transportation, it will lead to poor consumer experience, unguaranteed product quality, high risk of returns and complaints, difficult control of the environment during storage and transportation, easy spoilage and decay of fruits and vegetables, and increased loss rate.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A fruit and vegetable sorting and conveying rack includes a conveying table. Symmetrical rotating rollers are movably connected inside the conveying table. A conveyor belt is movably connected to the outside of the rotating rollers. A detector is fixedly connected to the outside of the conveying table, and an observation window is fixedly connected to one side of the detector. A sorting assembly is arranged on the side of the conveying table away from the observation window. A conveying table is arranged in front of the sorting assembly. The front end of the conveying table is fixedly connected to the outside of the conveying table. A collection basket is arranged in front of the conveying table. The collection basket is located below the conveyor belt. Symmetrical cleaning assemblies are arranged in front of the detector;

[0007] The sorting assembly includes a pushing plate. An electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the rear of the pushing plate, and a sliding seat is fixedly connected to the outside of the electric telescopic rod. The sliding seat is located behind the pushing plate;

[0008] The cleaning assembly includes a plurality of water spray guns, and a transfer pipe is fixedly connected to the front end of each water spray gun.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the sorting component further includes a driving motor. The power output shaft of the driving motor is connected to a rotating rod through a coupling. A fixing frame is movably connected to the outside of the rotating rod. The front end of the fixing frame is fixedly connected to the inside of the transfer table. A rotating shaft is provided on the fixing frame. The inside of the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating rod. A pulling rope is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating shaft. The front end of the pulling rope is fixedly connected to a moving plate. Symmetric spring rods are fixedly connected to the rear of the moving plate. One end of the spring rod away from the moving plate is fixedly connected to the front end of the fixing frame. A fixing rod is fixedly connected to the top of the moving plate. A fixing seat is fixedly connected to the front end of the fixing rod. A support table is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing seat. A motor bracket is fixedly connected to the top of the support table. A rotating motor is fixedly connected to the inside of the motor bracket. The power output shaft of the rotating motor is connected to a rotating table through a coupling. The front end of the rotating table is fixedly connected to the rear end of the electric telescopic rod. A telescopic spring is fixedly connected to the rear of the sliding seat. One end of the telescopic spring away from the sliding seat is fixedly connected to the front end of the support table. Symmetric auxiliary rod brackets are fixedly connected to the rear of the sliding seat. The outside of the auxiliary rod brackets is movably connected to the inside of the support table.

[0010] By providing the sorting component, when the fruits and vegetables are being transported on the transfer table, the sorting process starts. When the detector detects that the fruits and vegetables are defective products, the driving motor starts, driving the rotating rod to rotate. The rotation of the rotating rod drives the rotating shaft to rotate. The pulling rope fixed to the outside of the rotating shaft also moves accordingly. The moving plate connected to the front end of the pulling rope will be pulled forward in the rectangular hole on the fixing frame. Since there is a limiting frame on the outside of the moving plate, the rectangular hole on the limiting frame restricts the moving direction of the moving plate. When the moving plate moves backward, it will compress the symmetric spring rods, and the spring rods store elastic potential energy. When the driving motor stops rotating, the spring rods will release the elastic potential energy and push the moving plate back to its original position. The fixing rod moves along with the moving plate. At the same time, the rotating motor in the motor bracket starts, driving the rotating table to rotate. The electric telescopic rod connected to the front end of the rotating table also rotates and adjusts its angle accordingly. The electric telescopic rod will extend, and the pushing plate will extend forward under the action of the electric telescopic rod, pushing the defective products off the transfer table. During the telescopic process of the sliding seat, the telescopic spring at the rear will play a role in buffering and assisting the reset. When the electric telescopic rod retracts, the sliding seat will reset under the action of the telescopic spring. At the same time, the symmetric auxiliary rod brackets move inside the support table to ensure the stability and guiding property of the movement of the sliding seat. During the process, for fruits and vegetables with similar sorting indicators, it can ensure consistent taste and flavor, improve the eating experience, ensure product quality, reduce the risks of returns and complaints. After sorting, the quality is consistent, which is convenient for controlling the environment during storage and transportation, reducing spoilage and decay, and reducing the loss rate.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, a limiting frame is provided on the outer side of the moving plate. A rectangular hole is formed in the limiting frame, and the moving plate is movably connected inside the rectangular hole. Moreover, the bottom end of the limiting plate is fixedly connected to the top end of the transfer table, and the bottom end of the fixed seat is fixedly connected to the top end of the limiting frame.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the cleaning assembly further includes a water tank. A water injection port is fixedly connected to the outer side of the water tank, and a connecting frame is fixedly connected to the outer side of the water tank. The connecting frame is located in front of the water injection port. The front end of the connecting frame is fixedly connected to the inner side of the transfer table. A water outlet is fixedly connected to the front end of the water tank, and a water delivery pipe is fixedly connected to the inner side of the water outlet. The top end of the water delivery pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the transfer pipe. A connecting seat is fixedly connected to the outer side of the transfer pipe. One side of the connecting seat is fixedly connected to a telescopic electric rod, and a mounting member is fixedly connected to the outer side of the telescopic electric rod. The front end of the mounting member is fixedly connected to the outer side of the transfer table.

[0013] By providing the cleaning assembly, in the cleaning process before fruit and vegetable sorting, first, water is injected into the water tank through the water injection port. The water tank is fixed to the inner side of the transfer table through the connecting frame, providing water source for the entire cleaning assembly. When fruits and vegetables need to be cleaned, water flows out from the water outlet at the front end of the water tank and is conveyed upward through the fixedly connected water delivery pipe. The top end of the water delivery pipe is connected to the transfer pipe, and after the water flow enters the transfer pipe, it is distributed to each water spray gun fixedly connected to the front end of the transfer pipe. One end of the telescopic electric rod is connected to the connecting seat. When the telescopic electric rod is started, it can push or pull the connecting seat and the connected transfer pipe and water spray gun to perform telescopic movement, so as to adjust the position and angle of the water spray gun to adapt to the positions of different fruits and vegetables on the transfer table, and perform omnidirectional and multi-angle water spray cleaning on them, washing away the dirt and impurities on the surface of the fruits and vegetables, ensuring that the fruits and vegetables entering the sorting link are clean and facilitating subsequent accurate sorting.

[0014] As can be seen from the above, a fruit and vegetable sorting and conveying rack provided by the present invention has the technical effects of sorting fruits and vegetables with similar sorting indexes, ensuring taste and quality, reducing return and complaint, facilitating storage, transportation and environmental control, and reducing deterioration and loss.
