Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of vegetable conveying equipment technology, specifically to an intelligent conveying equipment for pre-processing of agricultural products such as pickled vegetables. Background Technology

[0002] Patent application CN212150585U includes a mounting base. The mounting base is connected to a conveying mechanism and a partition mounted on the conveying mechanism via a support column. The conveying mechanism consists of two drive wheels, a conveyor belt, and a drive motor. One side of the conveyor belt is connected to a feed pipe via a bracket mounted on the mounting base. A water collection frame is installed inside the conveyor belt. The bottom of the water collection frame is connected to a water tank via a vertical pipe. The water tank is connected to a spray pipe via a connecting pipe. The spray pipe is equipped with atomizing nozzles, and a water pump is installed on the connecting pipe. The advantages are: under the action of the water pump, water from the water tank flows through the connecting pipe into the spray pipe and is sprayed onto the vegetables through the atomizing nozzles, keeping the vegetables fresh. Excess water on the vegetables passes through the conveyor belt and enters the water collection frame. The water in the water collection frame converges towards the center under the action of the slope, is filtered by a filter screen, and enters the vertical pipe, then re-enters the water tank. This prevents excess water from falling directly onto the ground during transport, causing slippery surfaces, and also saves water resources.

[0003] In existing technologies, including the aforementioned patents, rotten vegetable leaves are inevitable during large-scale vegetable transportation. While manual sorting can remove all rotten leaves, the required manpower and workload increase with the conveyor belt speed and the quantity of vegetables. This undoubtedly places demands on factory space and incurs high labor costs. Existing technologies such as "visual recognition" and "photoelectric sensors" require even higher equipment costs. As for "air separation technology," it requires blowing rotten leaves off the conveyor belt surface, which may affect other normal vegetables. Smaller leaves can cause problems, causing them to detach from the conveyor belt. Furthermore, strong winds can tear rotten leaves apart during the blowing process, causing them to adhere to other healthy leaves before reaching the receiving component. "Vibration screening," on the other hand, can cause rotten leaves that produce slime to stick to the conveyor belt surface instead of being quickly shaken off, potentially contaminating the conveyor belt or other healthy leaves over time. Regarding the aforementioned patent, spraying alone can only wash away surface dust from the leaves; it may not be able to remove broken or rotten leaves, undoubtedly placing a significant burden on subsequent cleaning work. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The problem this invention aims to solve is to avoid interfering with the transport of other normal leaves when removing rotten vegetable leaves, to prevent rotten vegetable leaves from adhering to the conveyor belt for a long time, and to reduce the workload of washing to a certain extent.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is: an intelligent conveying device for pretreatment and processing of agricultural products and pickled vegetables, including a mounting frame, two mounting frames are provided and arranged opposite each other. A cloth-laying component is provided on one side of the upper end of the mounting frame. The cloth-laying component can both lay cloth on the vegetable leaves and remove rotten vegetable leaves adhering to the surface of the vegetable leaves. A conveyor belt is provided on the opposite side of the mounting frame. The surface of the conveyor belt has a number of holes. The conveyor belt is arranged in a T-shape. A screening component is provided inside the conveyor belt at the intersection of the T-shape. The screening component can remove rotten vegetable leaves from the conveyor belt.

[0006] The screening assembly mainly includes an air inlet, a sealing gasket, an air amplifier, a transfer box, and nozzles. A sealing gasket is fixedly installed at the upper end of the air inlet, and the sealing gasket is in contact with the conveyor belt. The air amplifier is located below the air inlet, and the side of the air amplifier near the air inlet is a negative pressure zone. A transfer box is installed below the air amplifier. The transfer box is used to block the sucked-in rotten vegetable leaf fragments and to deliver air without vegetable leaf fragments to the nozzles. The nozzles are also in contact with the conveyor belt.

[0007] A connecting pipe is fixedly installed at the lower end of the air amplifier. The connecting pipe is used to connect the air amplifier and the transfer box. The transfer box is located directly below the air amplifier. Both sides of the lower end of the transfer box have discharge ports, and a protrusion is provided between the discharge ports. A collection box is slidably installed at the lower end of the transfer box. There is only one collection box. Both ends of the collection box have exhaust holes. A connecting pipe is fixedly installed on both sides of the upper end of the transfer box, and the upper end of the connecting pipe is connected to the nozzle.

[0008] Preferably, the screening assembly further includes a mounting plate, the two ends of which are connected to a mounting frame, the interior of which is hollow, and the upper end of which is fixedly connected to an air inlet.

[0009] Preferably, the air amplifier is located below the mounting plate, and there are several air amplifiers. The air amplifiers are fixedly connected to the mounting plate, and an air pipe is provided on one side of the air amplifier. The air pipe passes through a hole on the mounting bracket and is connected to an external air pump.

[0010] Preferably, the fabric assembly includes a protective cover, which is fixedly connected to the mounting frame. A rotating shaft is rotatably provided on one side of the protective cover, and several insert rods are fixedly provided on the side of the rotating shaft near the inside of the protective cover.

[0011] Preferably, the other end of the insertion rod is connected by a bearing inside the protective cover. There are a total of eight insertion rods, and mounting blocks are provided around the insertion rods. The number of mounting blocks is the same as the number of insertion rods.

[0012] Preferably, brushes are fixedly provided on the outer surfaces of four of the mounting blocks, and water inlets are provided inside the mounting blocks, with some of the water inlets communicating with the bottom of the brushes.

[0013] Preferably, the mounting block has a water pipe inside, which is a three-quarters arc. The other end of the water pipe passes through the protective cover and is connected to an external water pump. The water pipe is rotatably connected to the mounting block.

[0014] Preferably, the number of other components below the air amplifier, excluding the collection box, is the same as that of the air amplifier. The collection box has a through hole connected to it only at the discharge port, and a sealing ring is provided at the connection between the collection box and the transfer box.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present invention has the following advantages:

[0016] (1) Under the action of the screening component, firstly, the rotten vegetable leaves can be torn up and sucked away. In this process, not only will the transportation of normal leaves not be interfered with, but the rotten vegetable leaves will also not stick to the surface of other normal leaves. This can reduce the interference to normal vegetable leaves while ensuring transportation efficiency. Moreover, it can reduce the probability of rotten vegetable leaves mixing into normal leaves when discharging, thereby reducing the manual labor required for sorting and screening. Secondly, the sucked-away broken leaves can be completely separated from the conveyor belt, and no part of the screening component needs to contact the front of the conveyor belt and other normal leaves while contacting the rotten vegetable leaves. This can prevent the rotten vegetable leaves from accumulating on the screening component to the greatest extent, thereby avoiding the rotten vegetable leaves from sticking to the surface of the screening component and causing unnecessary pollution to the subsequent normal leaves. Finally, the air sucked in can be treated and blown towards the conveyor belt to blow away the remaining vegetable leaves on its surface. This can further prevent the rotten vegetable leaves from sticking to the surface of the conveyor belt for a long time, thereby providing a guarantee for transportation.

[0017] (2) Under the action of the cloth component, it can not only clean the surface of the vegetable leaves, reduce the amount of dust sucked away by the screening component, and ensure the normal operation of the screening component; it can also wash away the broken and rotten vegetable leaves on the surface of normal vegetable leaves, so as to prevent them from being mixed in with normal vegetable leaves and avoiding the screening component; it can also wash away the vegetable leaves that are piled up, and after multiple washes, the vegetable leaves can be evenly spread on the conveyor belt, so that the screening component can work normally and reduce the probability of leakage.

[0033] An air amplifier 304 is located below the mounting plate 301. Several air amplifiers 304 are provided. The air amplifiers 304 are fixedly connected to the mounting plate 301. An air pipe is provided on one side of the air amplifier 304. The air pipe passes through a hole on the mounting bracket 1 and is connected to an external air pump.

[0034] The fabric assembly 4 includes a protective cover 401, which is fixedly connected to the mounting frame 1. A rotating shaft 402 is rotatably provided on one side of the protective cover 401. Several insert rods 403 are fixedly provided on the side of the rotating shaft 402 near the inside of the protective cover 401. The rotating shaft 402 can be connected to an external motor through a transmission component.

[0035] The other end of the insertion rod 403 is connected by a bearing inside the protective cover 401. There are eight insertion rods 403 in total. There are mounting blocks 404 around the insertion rods 403. The number of mounting blocks 404 is the same as the number of insertion rods 403.

[0036] Four of the mounting blocks 404 have brushes 405 fixedly installed on their outer surfaces. Each mounting block 404 has a water inlet 407 inside, and some of the water inlets 407 are connected to the bottom of the brushes 405.

[0037] The mounting block 404 has a water pipe 406 inside. The water pipe 406 is a three-quarters arc. The other end of the water pipe 406 passes through the protective cover 401 and is connected to an external water pump. The water pipe 406 is rotatably connected to the mounting block 404.

[0038] The number of other components below the air amplifier 304, except for the collection box 308, is the same as that of the air amplifier 304. The collection box 308 is only provided with a through hole connected to the discharge port 307. A sealing ring is provided at the connection between the collection box 308 and the transfer box 306.

[0039] The working principle and usage process of this invention: After the vegetables enter the conveyor belt 2, they first enter the interior of the protective cover 401. At this time, the water dripping from the top of the protective cover can remove the floating dust on the surface of the vegetable leaves and soften the soil clumps and other dirt stuck to the surface of the vegetable leaves. As the vegetable leaves continue to move, the brush 405 can break up the piled-up vegetable leaves. In this process, the water inlet 407 and the brush 405 work together to wash away the dirt clumps, rotten vegetable leaf fragments and other stains stuck to the surface of the vegetable leaves. The vegetable leaves can also be pushed backward. Most of the stains can be discharged from the holes on the conveyor belt 2 under the action of multiple washes and water flow.

[0040] After being washed and coated with cloth, the vegetable leaves continue to move. When they pass through the air inlet 302, the normal vegetable leaves, with their complete structure and higher strength than rotten leaves, will not be torn and can be transported normally, while rotten leaves have low structural strength. Furthermore, under the action of water and their own mucus, they can adhere tightly to the conveyor belt 2. As they pass, the sealing gasket 303 engages with the holes on the conveyor belt 2, using negative pressure to tear the rotten leaves and suck them into the air inlet 302. After this initial adsorption, not only are the rotten leaves torn apart, but under pressure, the remaining parts of the rotten leaves also adhere tightly to the surface of the conveyor belt 2. Thus, when the normal vegetable leaves are discharged, the remaining parts of the rotten leaves can continue to move with the conveyor belt 2.

[0041] Rotten vegetable leaves entering the air inlet 302 will be carried by the flowing air, passing through the air amplifier 304 and connecting pipe 1 305 into the transfer box 306. At this time, the rotten vegetable leaves will hit the bottom of the transfer box 306 due to inertia. With the continuous flow of air, they can gradually move towards the discharge ports 307 on both sides and finally enter the interior of the collection box 308. A small part of the separated air is used as the driving force to push the broken leaves and eventually enters the collection box 308 and is discharged. Most of the air will move towards the connecting pipe 2 on both sides 309 and finally be discharged from the nozzle 310. The air discharged from the nozzle 310 will blow directly towards the conveyor belt 2, which can be used to blow away the rotten vegetable leaves adhering to the conveyor belt.

[0042] The above embodiments are merely exemplary embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the claims. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or equivalent substitutions to the present invention within its spirit and scope of protection, and such modifications or equivalent substitutions should also be considered to fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
