[0025] With reference to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , according to the embodiment 1 of the present application, an automatic rice processing production line is provided, comprising: a square tube 1, the inside of which is provided with a channel one 111, a channel two 112 and a channel three 113 from top to bottom, a plurality of elastic plates 2 are provided in the channel two 112 at equal intervals, the bottom end of the elastic plate 2 is fixedly connected with the inner wall of the channel two 112, the two sides and the top end of the elastic plate 2 are in contact with the inner wall of the channel two 112, a plurality of round holes 8 are formed in the bottom of the elastic plate 2, two filtering mechanisms 5 are symmetrically provided on the upper and lower sides of the feeding end of the square tube 1, respectively used for guiding the gas outside the square tube 1 into the channel one 111 and the channel three 113; a plurality of feeding holes 9 are provided on the inner bottom wall of the channel one 111 at equal intervals, and each feeding hole 9 is located at the top end of the corresponding elastic plate 2; a connecting piece 6 is provided between the corresponding two elastic plates 2, used for the communication between the inside of the channel one 111 and the inside of the channel two 112; a storage tank 10 is fixedly installed at the discharging end of the square tube 1, which is provided with a material guiding mechanism 4 for guiding the broken rice in the channel one 111 and the rice in the channel three 113 into the storage tank 10 for storage, a gas pump 11 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the storage tank 10, and the suction end of the gas pump 11 is connected with the inside of the channel two 112 and the inside of the storage tank 10 through a connecting mechanism 3; a collecting mechanism 7 is provided at the bottom end of the gas pump 11, used for collecting small particle impurities in the gas flow discharged by the gas pump 11.

[0026] In this embodiment, when the improved automatic rice processing production line conveying equipment is used, (please refer to Figure 1 , the connecting plates are fixedly installed on the two sides of the square tube 1 at equal intervals, used for connecting the square tube 1 with the external support frame), please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , the gas pump 11 starts to continuously extract the gas in the storage tank 10 and the channel two 112 through the connecting mechanism 3, (the gas pump 11 can use a centrifugal fan or a blower), please refer to Figure 5 , because the material guiding mechanism 4 makes the storage tank 10 communicate with the channel one 111 and the channel three 113, the gas pump 11 simultaneously extracts the gas in the channel one 111 and the channel three 113, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, external gas flows into the second channel 112, the first channel 111 and the third channel 113 respectively from the feed end of the square tube 1 and the two filtering mechanisms 5 to replenish the gas lost in the first channel 111, the second channel 112 and the third channel 113, and finally forms a directional flow of gas in the first channel 111, the second channel 112 and the third channel 113 respectively, and the gas flowing out of the first channel 111 and the third channel 113 is introduced into the storage box 10 through the material guide mechanism 4, while the gas flowing out of the second channel 112 is sucked by the air pump 11 through the connecting mechanism 3 and discharged from the storage box 10; It should be noted that, during the gas flow in the second channel 112 , the elastic plate 2 is blown by the airflow, causing the top elastic plate 2 to bend and separate from the inner wall of the second channel 112 . After the device is started, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the airflow carries the mixed raw materials of rice, dust, rice flour and broken rice, enters the second channel 112 from the feeding end of the square tube 1, and slides along the inner bottom wall of the second channel 112. Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, when the mixed raw materials move to the position of the elastic plate 2, a part of the gas passes through the circular hole 8 and continues to flow in the second channel 112, while the other part of the gas bypasses the elastic plate 2 from the gap between the top of the elastic plate 2 and the inner wall of the second channel 112 and continues to flow in the second channel 112. Finally, the gas in the second channel 112 carries the dust and rice flour in the mixed raw materials and continues to flow in the second channel 112. Please refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, finally, the dust, rice flour and other small particles are injected into the collecting mechanism 7 for storage by the air pump 11, and the rice can be cleaned synchronously during the rice transportation process, so that the rice after transportation is cleaner; When the mixed raw materials move to the position of the elastic plate 2, the rice and broken rice cannot pass through the circular hole 8. At this time, as the airflow pushes the rice and broken rice, the rice and broken rice slide obliquely upward along the inclined elastic plate 2. At this time, due to the inertia of the broken rice and rice when sliding obliquely upward, the rice is separated from the airflow and slides through the feed hole 9 into the material channel 111. Subsequently, due to the blowing of the airflow in the material channel 111 on the rice and broken rice, the rice and broken rice slide along the inner bottom wall of the material channel 111. Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 7As shown, when the rice and broken rice move to the position of the connecting piece 6, the rice falls into the material channel three 113 through the connecting piece 6 due to the large gravity of the rice itself, and the rice continues to slide on the inner bottom wall of the material channel three 113 due to the blowing of the gas in the material channel three 113 on the rice, and the broken rice continues to slide on the inner bottom wall of the material channel one 111 by the blowing of the gas in the material channel one 111 on the broken rice. Please refer to Figure 5 As shown, when the rice and broken rice move out of the material channel one 111 and the material channel three 113, the broken rice and the rice are guided into the storage box 10 by the material guiding mechanism 4 respectively to be stored, so that the screening of the broken rice and the rice is completed synchronously in the process of transporting the rice, to ensure the quality of the rice after the transportation is completed. As described above, the improved automatic rice processing production line transportation equipment has the advantages that the rice is sucked into the square tube 1 by the airflow to complete the transportation of the rice, so that the feeding operation of the rice is simpler, the device structure is simple, the production cost is low, the volume is small, the space occupied by the bottom end of the device is reduced, the cleaning of dust or rice powder and the like in the rice is completed synchronously in the process of transporting the rice, the separation of the broken rice and the rice is completed, to ensure the quality of the rice after the transportation is completed, the rice after the transportation is completed is cleaner, further screening is not needed after the transportation is completed, the processing efficiency of the rice is improved, and the broken rice and the rice powder are collected together to be stored, which facilitates the collection and reuse of the broken rice and the rice powder.

[0027] In a further preferred embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the feeding end of the square tube 1 is fixedly provided with a suction pipe 12, the inside of the suction pipe 12 is communicated with the inside of the material channel two 112, both ends of the suction pipe 12 are provided in an expanded manner, and the suction pipe 12 is a soft pipe.

[0028] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, as the gas in the material channel two 112 flows out, the external gas flows into the suction pipe 12 from the suction end of the suction pipe 12, and then flows into the material channel two 112 along the suction pipe 12. At this time, the position of the suction end of the suction pipe 12 is changed by the motorized mechanical arm (the automatic mechanical arm is a commonly used mechanical arm) so that the suction end is close to the rice. The rice can be sucked into the suction pipe 12 by the airflow, and then slides into the material channel two 112 along the suction pipe 12, thereby expanding the suction range of the material channel two 112.

[0029] In a further preferred embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the top of the elastic plate 2 is provided in an arc-shaped plate manner, a plurality of round holes 8 on the elastic plate 2 are provided at equal intervals, and each round hole 8 is provided in a transverse manner.

[0030] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the circular hole 8 is arranged horizontally, so that the trajectory of the gas flow in the circular hole 8 is in the same direction as the flow trajectory in the second material channel 112, so that the gas in the second material channel 112 can more easily pass through the circular hole 8; The elastic plate 2 is provided with an arc-shaped top, so that the airflow blowing on the elastic plate 2 can more easily cause the top of the elastic plate 2 to bend and deform (the elastic plate 2 is made of a relatively low hardness elastic plate 2 such as an elastic plastic plate or an elastic rubber plate).

[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a support rod 13 is fixedly installed in the elastic plate 2 and penetrates through it, and both ends of the support rod 13 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second material channel 112 , and the support rod 13 is located above the corresponding circular hole 8 .

[0032] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the setting of the support rod 13 cooperates with the fixation of the bottom end of the elastic plate 2 and the inner wall of the material channel 112, and the elastic plate 2 can be constrained and limited by the middle and bottom end of the bottom of the elastic plate 2, so that the bottom of the elastic plate 2 will not change due to the airflow blowing on the elastic plate 2, thereby affecting the rice and broken rice from sliding into the feed hole 9.

[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, the connecting mechanism 3 includes an arc-shaped tube 31, one end of which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage box 10, and the interior of the arc-shaped tube is communicated with the interior of the suction end of the air pump 11, and the other end of the arc-shaped tube extends to the outside of the storage box 10 and is fixedly connected to the box wall of the storage box 10 and the discharge end of the square tube 1. A one-way valve 32 is fixedly installed through the middle position of the outer arc wall of the arc-shaped tube 31, and a pressure-limiting valve 33 is fixedly installed through the center position of the other end of the arc-shaped tube 31, and the interior of the pressure-limiting valve 33 is communicated with the interior of the arc-shaped tube 31 and the interior of the material channel 112.

[0034] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 4As shown, when the air pump 11 is started, the gas in the arc tube 31 is first extracted. At this time, due to the pressure difference at both ends of the one-way valve 32, part of the gas in the storage box 10 flows into the arc tube 31 to replenish the gas lost in the arc tube 31. At the same time, due to the pressure difference between the inside of the storage box 10 and the inside of the material channel 111 and the inside of the material channel 2 112, the gas in the material channel 111 and the material channel 2 112 flows into the storage box 10 to replenish the gas lost in the storage box 10. Since the gas flow rate at the one-way valve 32 is limited, the gas flow rate is 2. As a large amount of gas in the arc tube 31 is lost, the pressure in the arc tube 31 gradually decreases. After the pressure difference at both ends of the pressure limiting valve 33 reaches the threshold, the gas in the second channel 112 passes through the pressure limiting valve 33 and flows into the arc tube 31 to replenish the other part of the gas lost in the arc tube 31, so as to avoid the air pump 11 being directly connected to the inside of the second channel 112 through the arc tube 31, resulting in a large amount of gas in the second channel 112 flowing into the arc tube 31, thereby causing the gas flow rate in the second channel 112 to be too fast and affecting the normal use of the device.

[0035] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the other end of the arc tube 31 is set in an inclined surface shape that is recessed and inclined from the outer peripheral side to the center position, and the air inlet end of the one-way valve 32 and the air inlet end of the pressure limiting valve 33 are respectively coplanar with the external surface of the arc tube 31 and the inclined surface of the other end of the arc tube 31.

[0036] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 As shown, the inclined surface at the other end of the arc tube 31 allows the gas in the second material channel 112 to directly push the small particles of debris into the pressure limiting valve 33 along the inclined surface of the arc tube 31 during the process of flowing into the arc tube 31, and then pass through the pressure limiting valve 33 directly into the arc tube 31, thereby avoiding a dead angle between the arc tube 31 and the second material channel 112, which causes some small particles of impurities to be unable to slide into the arc tube 31 with the airflow.

[0037] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 As shown, the material guiding mechanism 4 includes two material guiding pipes 41, one end of which is fixed through the wall of the material storage box 10 and fixedly connected to the discharge end of the square tube 1, and the interior thereof is communicated with the interior of the material channel 111 and the interior of the material channel 3 113 respectively. The bottom of the material storage box 10 has two material storage bins 42, and the other ends of the two material guiding pipes 41 are respectively inserted into the two material storage bins 42 and fixedly connected to the inner walls of the two material storage bins 42 respectively. The arc tube 31 is located between the two material guiding pipes 41 and fixedly connected to the two material guiding pipes 41.

[0038] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 5As shown, when the gas in the first and second material channels 111 and 112 slides out, it directly carries the broken rice and the rice into the two guide pipes 41, and then when it slides out of the two guide pipes 41, the gas in the conduits directly enters the two storage bins 42. Since the space in the storage bins 42 is large, the airflow rate decreases rapidly, and the airflow slowly flows upward, slides out of the two granaries and flows into the one-way valve 32, while the rice and broken rice fall into the two storage bins 42 due to their own gravity. It should be noted that if the airflow in channel 1 111 and channel 2 112 carries a very small amount of dust or small particles such as rice noodles, then due to the extremely small gravity of the small particles themselves, the gas slowly flowing upward will carry the small particles together through the one-way valve 32 and flow into the arc tube 31, further cleaning the small particles in the mixed raw materials.

[0039] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 and 5 As shown, two electrically controlled valves 43 are provided on the bottom side of the material storage box 10 , and the top end of each electrically controlled valve 43 is respectively inserted into the two material storage bins 42 and is threadedly connected to the material storage box 10 .

[0040] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 As shown, (the bottom of the storage bin 42 is in the shape of a quadrangular pyramid), when the rice or broken rice in the storage bin 42 is unloaded, the electric-controlled valve 43 is opened, so that the storage bin 42 is connected to the interior of the storage bin 42. At this time, due to the gravity of the rice or broken rice, the rice or broken rice directly slides out of the storage box 10 through the electric-controlled valve 43. (The inner ring wall of the top of the electric-controlled valve 43 is in the shape of an arc surface to prevent a small amount of rice or broken rice from colliding with the top of the electric-controlled valve 43 and being unable to slide out of the storage box 10); It should be noted that the overall operation control of the device is controlled by the control host outside the automated rice processing production line to cooperate with various processing equipment in the automated rice processing production line to complete the rice processing operation; It should be noted that the electric-controlled valve 43 at the bottom of the rice storage bin 42 is set above the feed port of the subsequent rice processing equipment, so that the rice sliding down from the electric-controlled valve 43 can directly fall into the feed port of the subsequent rice processing equipment. The guide pipe 41 is connected to the electric-controlled valve 43 at the bottom of the broken rice storage bin, which can directly guide the broken rice sliding down from the electric-controlled valve 43 to the corresponding position, such as a broken rice storage box or storage bag and other storage equipment.

[0041] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 6As shown, the filtering mechanism 5 includes a storage cylinder 51, and the two storage cylinders 51 are relatively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the feed end of the square tube 1, and the opposite ends of the two storage cylinders 51 are respectively inserted into the material channel 1 111 and the material channel 3 113 and fixedly connected to the square tube 1, and a filter element 52 is slidably installed in the storage cylinder 51.

[0042] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, as the gas in the material channel 1 111 and the material channel 3 113 is lost, a pressure difference is generated at the openings at both ends of the storage cylinder 51. Driven by the pressure difference, the gas outside the square tube 1 passes through the storage cylinder 51 and flows into the material channel 1 111 and the material channel 3 113 to replenish the gas lost in the material channel 1 111 and the material channel 3 113. In addition, the gas needs to pass through the filter holes of the filter element 52 during the process of passing through the storage cylinder 51, so that the dust and debris in the gas are blocked outside the square tube 1 by the filter element 52, thereby preventing the dust and debris from being carried away by the gas. The body enters the material channel 111 and the material channel 3 113, affecting the cleaning effect of rice and broken rice. (The storage cylinder 51 is divided into a cylinder body and a cylinder cover. The cylinder cover is threadedly installed in the opening of the opposite end of the storage cylinder 51, and the cylinder cover is annular.) When replacing the filter element 52, the operator unscrews the cylinder cover from the cylinder body and directly pulls out the filter element 52 from the storage cylinder 51. Then, replace the new filter element 52 and insert it into the cylinder body. Then screw the cylinder cover back into the cylinder body to complete the replacement of the filter element 52. The operation is relatively simple.

[0043] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the connecting member 6 includes a feed hopper 61, which is arranged in the middle between the corresponding two feed holes 9, the top of which is coplanar with the inner bottom wall of the material channel 111 and is fixedly connected to the square tube 1, the width of the feed port of the feed hopper 61 is equal to the width of the material channel 111, and the bottom end of the feed hopper 61 is connected to be equipped with a soft conduit 62, and the bottom end of the soft conduit 62 is coplanar with the inner top wall of the material channel 3 113 and is fixedly connected to the square tube 1.

[0044] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, during the process of the rice being pushed by the gas to slide on the bottom wall of the first material channel 111, when the rice slides to the position of the feed hopper 61, due to the large volume and high weight of the rice, the airflow has a poor effect of entraining and pushing the rice, and the rice falls directly into the feed hopper 61 and passes through the second material channel 112 along the soft conduit 62 and falls into the third material channel 113. However, due to the small weight of the broken rice, the airflow has a better effect of entraining and pushing the broken rice. Due to the push of the airflow on the broken rice, the broken rice directly flies over the feed hopper 61 and continues to slide in the first material channel 111, thereby automatically completing the separation of rice and broken rice. (The soft conduit 62 is made of rubber material, which can prevent the rice or broken rice in the second material channel 112 from colliding with harder objects when pushed by the airflow to slide, causing damage to the rice or broken rice).

[0045] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 8 As shown, the collecting mechanism 7 includes a filter cartridge 71 , which is disposed at the bottom end of the air pump 11 and fixedly connected to the storage box 10 , and the air outlet end of the air pump 11 is fixedly inserted into the filter cartridge 71 .

[0046] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 8 As shown, the gas extracted by the air pump 11 is then all injected into the filter cartridge 71 (the bottom of the filter cartridge 71 is open and has a filter plate threadedly mounted thereon). The gas entering the filter cartridge 71 passes through the holes of the filter cartridge 71 and is discharged from the filter cartridge 71, while small particles of debris such as dust and rice flour in the gas are intercepted and stored in the filter cartridge 71, automatically completing the collection of small particles of debris and preventing them from being dispersed into the air around the device along with the gas discharged from the air pump 11. When cleaning the filter cartridge 71, the operator puts the storage bag on the bottom end of the filter cartridge 71, then holds the filter plate through the storage bag and twists the filter plate out of the filter cartridge 71. The small particles of debris in the filter cartridge 71 slide directly out of the bottom opening of the filter cartridge 71 and fall into the storage bag, thus completing the cleaning of the filter cartridge 71 and the collection of rice noodles.

[0047] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 8 As shown, a flared tube 72 is fixedly installed on the inner top wall of the filter cartridge 71, and the interior of the flared tube 72 is communicated with the interior of the air outlet end of the air pump 11. A frustum 73 is fixedly installed in the flared tube 72 through a connecting block, and the frustum 73 is gap-fitted with the inner wall of the flared tube 72, and the top side of the frustum 73 is arranged in an arc shape.

[0048] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 8 As shown, the gas discharged by the air pump 11 flows along the gap between the cone 73 and the inner wall of the flared tube 72, and blows directly on the inner wall of the filter cartridge 71, so as to clean the small particles of debris attached to the inner wall of the filter cartridge 71 through the airflow, so as to avoid excessive small particles of debris attached to the inner wall of the filter cartridge 71, which affects the use of the device.

[0049] Working principle: When the improved automatic rice processing production line transport equipment is in use, the mixed raw materials are sucked into the second material channel 112 through the suction pipe 12 and then pushed by the airflow to slide in the second material channel 112. The airflow completes the cleaning of rice and broken rice, and small particles of debris are filtered out from the airflow for collection and storage. At the same time, the separation of rice and broken rice is completed, and the airflow pushes the rice and broken rice to slide in the third material channel 113 and the first material channel 111 respectively. Finally, the rice and broken rice are transported to corresponding positions, that is, stored separately in the storage bin 42.

The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention.
