[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of food processing, in particular to an intelligent suspension conveying system for vegetable processing. Background Art
[0002] An intelligent overhead conveyor system typically consists of a suspension chain, carriage, spreader, drive unit, tensioning device, and control system. These components work together to form a continuous conveyor chain for efficient and safe material transportation. The core of this system is to achieve automated and intelligent material handling, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing labor costs.
[0003] Patent publication number CN205397319U relates to the field of food processing technology. The patent discloses a greenhouse vegetable hanging conveyor device comprising an overhead track and a suspension mechanism. The overhead track is an I-beam structure, with multiple sootblower devices with sootblower pipes spaced apart at intervals on the upper end of the track. The lower end of the track is provided with a suspension mechanism. The suspension mechanism comprises two U-shaped carriages disposed below the overhead track, each with two rollers adapted to the overhead track at its upper end. Traction ropes are provided on the outer sides of each carriage, connected to external drive mechanisms disposed at each end of the overhead track. The lower ends of the carriages are provided with sleeves containing telescopic rods that can move up and down. A horizontally arranged storage platform is provided between the lower ends of the telescopic rods. This patented structure features a rational design that reduces labor intensity and improves efficiency. When not in use, the storage platform remains elevated, eliminating space and preventing people from moving around in the greenhouse. When in use, the storage platform is lowered to avoid safety concerns due to excessive height.
[0004] In the above patent, the structural design is reasonable and reduces labor intensity, but the current equipment has the following problems: when the storage plate moves and the tilt angle is too large due to inertia, the vegetables are prone to fall, which not only affects the transportation efficiency, but also may cause safety hazards to the operators. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides an intelligent suspension conveying system for vegetable processing, which solves the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions: an intelligent suspension conveying system for vegetable processing, comprising a track system, a drive unit, and a carrier, wherein the drive unit is disposed inside the track system, and the carrier is rotatably mounted on the surface of the drive unit. During the movement of the carrier, its movement lags behind that of the drive unit, so that the carrier swings under the action of inertia and gravity, and is used for suspending and conveying vegetables, comprising: A sliding sleeve, wherein the sliding sleeve is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the driving unit; A No. 1 spring, which is arranged between the drive unit and the sliding sleeve, and adjusts the stress state of the entire mechanism through the arrangement of the No. 1 spring; Rotating rods, the left and right rotating rods are respectively rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the sliding sleeve; A pressure rod, the pressure rod being rotatably mounted on a surface of the rotating rod away from the sliding sleeve; A pressing plate, which is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the pressing rod; A threaded rod, the threaded rod being rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the pressure rod; A sliding button, wherein the sliding button is threadedly mounted on the circumferential surface of the threaded rod; The No. 2 spring is arranged between the left and right sliding buttons. The No. 2 spring is used to balance the tension of the pressure rods on both sides. Due to the transmission of force, the No. 2 spring is compressed to balance the displacement or tilt caused by the force on one side, and the reaction force of the sliding sleeve is used to offset the unbalanced force of the support frame.
[0007] According to the above technical solution, the conveying device also includes a sieve plate, which is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the carrier. After the vegetables are loaded into the carrier, they are received by the sieve plate. A No. 3 spring is provided between the sieve plate and the carrier, and the No. 3 spring drives the sieve plate to reset. Wherein, a calibration device for performing balance calibration on the driving unit when it moves and an anti-drop device for preventing the carrying frame from falling when it moves are provided at the bottom of the carrying frame.
[0008] According to the above technical solution, the calibration device includes a fixed frame, a V-shaped frame and a pulley rod. The fixed frame is fixedly installed on the bottom of the supporting frame, the V-shaped frame is rotatably installed on the circumferential surface of the fixed frame, and the pulley rod is slidably installed on the inner wall of the supporting frame. The screen plate moves downward to contact the pulley rod, so that the pulley rod moves downward to contact the V-shaped frame.
[0009] According to the above technical solution, a No. 4 spring is provided between the pulley rod and the carrier frame. The No. 4 spring drives the pulley rod to reset, and the pulley rod contacts the V-shaped frame, so that the V-shaped frame moves from an inclined angle to a horizontal position.
[0010] According to the above technical solution, the calibration device also includes an output port and a connecting rod. The output port is arranged at the bottom of the carrier frame, and the connecting rod is fixedly installed on the circumferential surface of the pulley rod. The movement of the connecting rod drives the sealing plate to move, so that the mud and water are output through the output port. When the pulley rod moves upward, the output port is sealed by driving the sealing plate to move.
[0011] According to the above technical solution, the calibration device also includes a sealing plate and a brake rod. The sealing plate is fixedly mounted on the surface of the connecting rod close to the output port. The sealing plate is in contact with the output port, and the weight of the lower half of the supporting frame is increased by the stored mud and water.
[0012] According to the above technical solution, the anti-drop device includes a slide rail frame, a receiving button and a No. 5 spring. The slide rail frame is fixedly installed on the surface of the supporting frame, and the receiving button is slidably installed on the circumferential surface of the slide rail frame. The movement of the receiving button will compress or stretch the No. 5 spring. The No. 5 spring is arranged between the receiving button and the slide rail frame, and the receiving button is reset by the arranged No. 5 spring.
[0013] According to the above technical solution, the anti-drop device also includes a baffle and a connecting rod. The baffle is fixedly installed on the top of the receiving button, one side of the connecting rod is rotatably installed on the surface of the brake rod, and the other side of the connecting rod is rotatably installed on the bottom of the baffle. The brake rod is rotated to drive the connecting rod to move, and the movement of the connecting rod drives the baffles on both sides to be centered.
[0014] The present invention provides an intelligent suspension conveying system for vegetable processing. It has the following beneficial effects: (1) This invention, through the setting of a conveying device, after vegetables are loaded into the carrier, the carrier is driven by the driving unit along the track system for suspended transportation. During the movement of the carrier, its movement lags behind the movement of the driving unit, so the carrier swings under the action of inertia and gravity. At this time, the position and angle of the carrier can be automatically adjusted in real time to ensure that the suspended vegetables remain balanced during transportation and avoid damage caused by tilting or shaking. By rotating the threaded rod to move the sliding button, the tightness of the No. 2 spring can be adjusted to adapt to different degrees of shaking.
[0015] (2) This invention, through the setting of the calibration device, will cause the carrier to tilt due to uneven weight distribution when vegetables are placed. At this time, the balance calibration mechanism can detect the center of gravity of the carrier, so that the staff can promptly find out whether the carrier is in a balanced state, thereby improving the stability of the vegetables during hanging transportation. When the sealing plate moves downward, the mud and water are discharged through the output port. When the sealing plate moves upward, the output port is sealed, so that the mud and water are temporarily stored. The stored mud and water increase the weight of the lower half of the carrier, which can balance the overall center of gravity.
[0016] (3) In this invention, by setting up the anti-drop device, the baffle is in a state where one side rises and the other side falls in the initial state. This state represents the imbalance of the two sides of the carrier, so that the staff can detect it in time. By rotating the brake lever, the connecting rod is driven to move. The movement of the connecting rod drives the baffles on both sides to be centered. When the baffle moves, it drives the receiving button to move along the slide rail frame. The movement of the receiving button will compress or stretch the No. 5 spring, and when the baffles on both sides are in a balanced state, the four sides of the carrier are protected from falling, preventing the vegetables from falling due to tilting or external force interference during the movement.

[0019] The following will provide a clear and complete description of the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0020] See also Figures 1-4One embodiment of the present invention is an intelligent suspension conveying system for vegetable processing, comprising a track system 1, a drive unit 2, and a carrier 3. The drive unit 2 is disposed inside the track system 1, and the carrier 3 is rotatably mounted on the surface of the drive unit 2, for suspending and conveying vegetables, including: A sliding sleeve 4 is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the driving unit 2; The No. 1 spring 5 is provided between the driving unit 2 and the sliding sleeve 4. The No. 1 spring 5 is used to adjust the stress state of the entire mechanism. The rotating rod 6 on the left and right sides is respectively rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 4; A pressure rod 7, the pressure rod 7 is rotatably mounted on the surface of the rotating rod 6 away from the sliding sleeve 4; The pressing plate 8 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the pressing rod 7; The threaded rod 9 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the pressure rod 7; The sliding button 10 is threadedly mounted on the circumferential surface of the threaded rod 9; The second spring 11 is set between the left and right sliding buttons 10. The second spring 11 is used to balance the tension of the pressure rods 7 on both sides. By automatically adjusting the position and angle of the supporting frame 3 in real time, it ensures that the hoisted vegetables remain balanced during transportation and avoid damage caused by tilting or shaking.
[0021] The conveying device also includes a sieve plate 12, which is slidably installed on the inner wall of the carrier frame 3 to clean the vegetables so that the mud and sand are discharged through the sieve plate 12; a No. 3 spring is arranged between the sieve plate 12 and the carrier frame 3, and the No. 3 spring is used to drive the sieve plate 12 to reset.
[0022] When the present embodiment is working, after the vegetables are loaded into the carrier 3, they are received by the sieve plate 12. At this time, the vegetables can be cleaned so that the mud and sand can be discharged through the sieve plate 12. The carrier 3 is driven by the driving unit 2 along the track system 1 for suspension transportation. During the movement of the carrier 3, its movement lags behind the movement of the driving unit 2. Therefore, under the action of inertia and gravity, the carrier 3 swings. At this time, the carrier 3 contacts the pressure plate 8, so that the pressure plate 8 drives the pressure rod 7 to move upward. The movement of the pressure rod 7 causes the rotating rod 6 to rotate upward. The rotation of the rotating rod 6 drives the sliding sleeve 4 to move upward while compressing the No. 1 spring 5 until the sliding sleeve 4 moves to the maximum distance. At this time, due to the force The transmission causes the No. 2 spring 11 to be compressed to balance the displacement or tilt caused by the force on one side, and the reaction force of the sliding sleeve 4 is used to offset the unbalanced force of the supporting frame 3. Subsequently, the sliding sleeve 4 is reset to drive the No. 1 spring 5 to readjust the force state of the entire mechanism, so that the two sides of the pressure plate 8 reach a new equilibrium state, that is, the position of the supporting frame 3 is balanced. The position and angle of the supporting frame 3 can be automatically adjusted in real time to ensure that the hoisted vegetables remain balanced during transportation and avoid damage caused by tilting or shaking. The sliding button 10 is moved by rotating the threaded rod 9 to adjust the tightness of the No. 2 spring 11, so that it can adapt to different degrees of shaking.
[0023] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 On the basis of the above embodiment, in another embodiment of the present invention, a calibration device for balancing and calibrating the driving unit 2 when it moves and an anti-drop device for preventing the carrier 3 from falling when it moves are provided at the bottom of the carrier 3. The calibration device includes a fixed frame 20, a V-shaped frame 21 and a pulley rod 22. The fixed frame 20 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the carrier 3, the V-shaped frame 21 is rotatably mounted on the circumferential surface of the fixed frame 20, and the pulley rod 22 is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the carrier 3. When vegetables are placed, the carrier 3 will tilt due to uneven weight distribution. At this time, the balance calibration mechanism detects the center of gravity position of the carrier 3, so that the staff can promptly detect whether the carrier 3 is in a balanced state.
[0024] A No. 4 spring is provided between the pulley rod 22 and the carrier frame 3 , and the No. 4 spring drives the pulley rod 22 to reset, so that the pulley rod 22 contacts the V-shaped frame 21 .
[0025] The calibration device further includes an output port 23 and a connecting rod 24 . The output port 23 is provided at the bottom of the carrier 3 , and the connecting rod 24 is fixedly mounted on the circumferential surface of the pulley rod 22 , so that mud, sand and water are output through the output port 23 .
[0026] The calibration device also includes a sealing plate 25 and a brake rod 26. The sealing plate 25 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the connecting rod 24 close to the output port 23. The sealing plate 25 is in contact with the output port 23, so that the mud and water are temporarily stored. The stored mud and water increase the weight of the lower half of the carrier 3, thereby balancing the overall center of gravity.
[0027] The anti-drop device includes a slide rail frame 30, a receiving button 31 and a No. 5 spring 32. The slide rail frame 30 is fixedly installed on the surface of the carrier frame 3, the receiving button 31 is slidably installed on the circumferential surface of the slide rail frame 30, and the No. 5 spring 32 is arranged between the receiving button 31 and the slide rail frame 30. The receiving button 31 is reset by the arranged No. 5 spring 32.
[0028] The anti-fall device also includes a baffle 33 and a connecting rod 34. The baffle 33 is fixedly mounted on the top of the receiving button 31. One side of the connecting rod 34 is rotatably mounted on the surface of the brake rod 26, and the other side of the connecting rod 34 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the baffle 33. In the initial state, the baffle 33 is in a state where one side rises and the other side falls. This state indicates that the two sides of the carrier 3 are unbalanced, so that the staff can detect it in time.
[0029] When the present embodiment is working, the sieve plate 12 moves downward and contacts the pulley rod 22, so that the pulley rod 22 moves downward and contacts the V-shaped frame 21, so that the V-shaped frame 21 moves from the inclined angle to the horizontal, and at the same time drives the brake rod 26 to rotate. When the vegetables are placed, the load frame 3 will tilt due to uneven weight distribution. At this time, the balance calibration mechanism detects the center of gravity position of the load frame 3, so that the staff can timely detect whether the load frame 3 is in a balanced state, thereby improving the stability of the vegetable hanging and conveying. When the pulley rod 22 moves downward, it drives the connecting rod 24 to move, and the movement of the connecting rod 24 drives the sealing plate 25 to move, so that the mud and water are discharged through the output port 23. When the pulley rod 22 moves upward, the sealing plate 25 is driven to move to seal the output port 23, so that the mud and water are temporarily stored. The stored mud and water increase the weight of the lower half of the load frame 3, which can balance the overall center of gravity. In the initial state, the baffle 33 is in a state where one side rises and the other side falls. This state represents that the two sides of the carrier 3 are unbalanced, so that the staff can detect it in time. By rotating the brake rod 26, the connecting rod 34 is driven to move, and the movement of the connecting rod 34 drives the baffles 33 on both sides to be centered. When the baffle 33 moves, it drives the receiving button 31 to move along the slide rail frame 30. The movement of the receiving button 31 will compress or stretch the No. 5 spring 32, and when the baffles 33 on both sides are in a balanced state, the four sides of the carrier 3 are protected from falling, preventing the vegetables from falling due to tilting or external force interference during the movement.
