Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of collection devices, and in particular to a fruit pit collection and processing vehicle. Background Art

[0002] In large-scale orchards or farmlands, if the fallen fruits are not picked up in time, they may be wasted due to rot, pests or weather factors. Especially for fruits such as ginkgo nuts and walnuts with high nutritional and medicinal values, mechanical picking can quickly complete the collection and reduce losses. After collection, processes such as cleaning and peeling are carried out. Existing mechanical collection devices usually have symmetrically arranged shovel and sieve plates at the bottom of the fruit collection hopper to achieve the purpose of picking up the fruits on the ground.

The terms such as "upper", "lower", "left" and "right" are only used to represent relative positional relationships, and when the absolute position of the object being described changes, the relative positional relationship may also change accordingly.

[0043] In the first aspect of the present invention, a fruit pit collection and processing vehicle is proposed, as shown in Figure 1-8 and includes an outer shell 1, a conveyor belt 2 provided in the outer shell 1 and a fruit collection hopper 3. An outer collection claw 4 and an inner collection claw 5 that overlap each other are provided on one side of the entrance of the outer shell 1. The fruit pit collection and processing vehicle further includes:

[0044] Two grippers 6 with different diameters and a lifting part for driving the two grippers 6 to move up and down;

[0045] Two material suction cylinders 7 corresponding to and communicating with the grippers 6 with different inner diameters of the cylinders;

[0046] An induced draft fan 8 provided at the top of the outer shell 1, and the upper end of the material suction cylinder 7 is slidably provided in the induced draft fan 8;

[0047] Partition sealing grooves 9 corresponding to the discharge ports of the two induced draft fans 8 respectively at the upper ports, and the partition sealing grooves 9 are fixedly provided in the outer shell 1;

[0048] A sliding part for driving the inner collecting claw 5 to slide inside the outer collecting claw 4 and driving one of the grippers 6 to be placed inside the fruit collecting hopper 3;

[0049] And a sealing plate 10 that can be lifted and lowered in the partition sealing groove 9.

[0050] In this embodiment, during use, the claw spacing between the outer collecting claw 4 and the inner collecting claw 5 is adjusted through the sliding part to collect fruits with different diameters, and the collected fruits are placed into the outer shell 1 through the conveyor belt 2;

[0051] The corresponding-sized gripper 6 is driven by the lifting part to precisely grasp the fruits with the corresponding fruit diameter collected in the fruit collecting hopper 3, and then the fruits are extracted by the induced draft fan 8 and placed into the partition sealing groove 9 to further screen and select and remove the same-sized sundries that may be placed together, and finally cooperate with the sealing plate 10 to seal the fruits with the same fruit diameter.

[0052] In this embodiment, the lifting part includes:

[0053] A driving motor 13 provided on the outer shell 1 through a mounting frame 12;

[0054] A crank 14 provided at the output end of the driving motor 13, and a sliding column 15 is provided at the other end of the crank 14;

[0055] A lifting ring 16 slidably provided on the mounting frame 12, and the sliding column 15 is slidably provided in the lifting ring 16;

[0056] A sliding frame 17 provided at the upper end of the lifting ring 16, and the two material suction cylinders 7 are both slidably provided on the sliding frame 17;

[0057] Specifically, the output end of the driving motor 13 drives the crank 14 to rotate. Through the reciprocating sliding of the sliding column 15 in the lifting ring 16, the sliding frame 17 is driven to reciprocate up and down on the mounting frame 12, and then drives the gripper 6 to reciprocate up and down synchronously. During the descending process of the gripper 6, the fruits in the lower fruit collecting hopper 3 are individually sucked, and are discharged to the partition sealing groove 9 through the corresponding-sized induced draft fan 8.

[0058] In this embodiment, the sliding part includes:

[0059] a cylinder 20 fixedly arranged on the outer shell 1 and a positioning seat 21 rotatably arranged on the outer shell 1;

[0060] a Z-shaped push rod 22 arranged at the output end of the cylinder 20, and the upper end of the push rod 22 is connected to the inner collecting claw 5;

[0061] a push swing rod 23 with one end rotatably arranged on the positioning seat 21, and the push rod 22 is movably arranged on the push swing rod 23;

[0062] a slider 24 slidably arranged on the sliding frame 17, the lower end of the suction tube 7 is connected to the slider 24 through a connecting plate 25, and the other end of the push swing rod 23 is fitted on one of the connecting plates 25;

[0063] Specifically, when collecting and processing fruits with a large fruit diameter, the output end of the cylinder 20 is in a contracted state, and the inner collecting claw 5 is hidden inside the outer collecting claw 4, so that the feeding gap between the outer collecting claw 4 and the inner collecting claw 5 is at the maximum. The push swing rod 23 will then push the grasping head 6 on the relatively larger-diameter side to correspond to the fruit collecting hopper 3, and the upper induced draft fan 8 is turned on to extract the large-diameter fruits into the partition sealing groove 9;

[0064] When collecting and processing fruits with a small fruit diameter, the output end of the cylinder 20 is in an extended state. When the inner collecting claw 5 is placed in the gap of the outer collecting claw 4, the feeding gap between the outer collecting claw 4 and the inner collecting claw 5 is at the minimum. After reversing the above process, the small-diameter fruits are placed into the partition sealing groove 9, and the fruits on both sides are respectively heat-sealed by the heat-sealing plate 10 in the partition sealing groove 9, realizing the automatic packaging process for fruits with different fruit diameters.

[0065] In this embodiment, as Figure 6 , Figure 7 shown, the lower end of the grasping head 6 is a circumferentially evenly distributed blocking strip, the blocking strip is made of an elastic material, the grasping head 6 is telescopically arranged at the lower end of the suction tube 7 through a spring 11. When the grasping head 6 grasps the fruit, it has a certain buffering effect under the action of the self-elastic force of the spring 11, avoiding damage to the fruit during the collection process. Moreover, the elastic blocking strip will first wrap around the outside of the fruit, and the suction process can adapt to fruit diameters within a certain range, avoiding insufficient suction force resulting in the fruit being unable to complete the transfer. At the same time, the coexisting irregular impurities will not be completely wrapped by the blocking strip and will not be transferred together with the fruit again, thus achieving the purpose of removing impurities.

[0066] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, the output end of the driving motor 13 also drives the conveyor belt 2 through a synchronous belt 18 to ensure the synchronism and continuity between collection and screening.

[0067] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, a material guiding inclined plate 19 is provided inside the housing 1. The upper feeding port of the material guiding inclined plate 19 corresponds to the conveyor belt 2, and the lower discharging port of the material guiding inclined plate 19 faces the fruit collecting hopper 3.

[0068] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 、 Figure 6 shown, a convex plate 26 is provided at the side end of the connecting plate 25. The side edge of the convex plate 26 exceeds the outer end face of the suction cylinder 7. The convex plate 26 abuts against the side end of the pushing swing rod 23. The pushing swing rod 23 abuts and toggles within the range of the convex plate 26 to avoid damaging the outer end face of the suction cylinder 7 during long-term use. The sealing plate 10 is installed at the upper end of the slider 24. The sealing port of the sealing plate 10 is placed in the partition sealing groove 9. The slider 24 and the sealing plate 10 move synchronously to ensure the packaging effect of the fruits.

[0069] In this embodiment, as Figure 6 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 shown, a material guiding cover 27 is rotatably provided at the lower end of the grasping head 6. A wind guiding plate 28 is circumferentially provided inside the material guiding cover 27. The material passing area of several wind guiding plates 28 is not less than the inner diameter of the grasping head 6. During the air suction process of the suction cylinder 7, the suction air flow will drive the material guiding cover 27 to continuously rotate at the lower end of the grasping head 6 under the action of the wind guiding plate 28. There are multiple protrusions on the outside of the material guiding cover 27, and an avoidance opening is also circumferentially provided on the material guiding cover 27. Under the guidance of the avoidance opening, the material guiding cover 27 can also achieve a swinging effect, and the material passing area of several wind guiding plates 28 is not less than the inner diameter of the grasping head 6. With the combined action of the continuous rotation and swinging effects, this can avoid multiple fruits being concentrated and adsorbed in the lower port area of the grasping head 6, causing blockage.

[0070] In this embodiment, as Figure 6 shown, the two grasping heads 6 are respectively a first picking head and a second picking head, and the diameter of the first picking head is larger than that of the second picking head.

[0071] In this embodiment, as Figure 6 shown, when the inner collecting claw 5 is hidden inside the outer collecting claw 4, the first picking head corresponds to the fruit collecting hopper 3. When the inner collecting claw 5 is placed in the gap between the outer collecting claws 4, the second picking head corresponds to the fruit collecting hopper 3.

[0072] Those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the discussion of any of the above embodiments is merely exemplary and is not intended to imply that the scope of the present invention is limited to these examples; within the concept of the present invention, the technical features in the above embodiments or different embodiments can also be combined, the steps can be implemented in any order, and there are many other variations in different aspects of the present invention as described above, which are not provided in detail for the sake of brevity.
