Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of food sorting, and particularly relates to a continuous intelligent substandard product sorting device for food production and processing. BACKGROUND

[0002] After food is completed through a production and processing link, the packaging integrity of the finished product needs to be strictly detected (problems such as damage and leakage are checked), and the packaged qualified product is accurately separated from the substandard product. This process needs to be realized by a professional food substandard product sorting device to ensure that the food finally flowing into the market meets the packaging safety standards.

[0003] In actual application, the existing food substandard product sorting device mostly relies on a camera device to detect the visual damage of food packaging. However, the camera device as an electronic component is prone to failure and damage in long-term high-frequency use. In addition, this kind of device usually needs to be configured with multiple camera devices, and in order to ensure the accuracy of the detection angle, the camera devices are usually fixedly installed at specific positions of the device. This fixed layout makes it difficult for workers to quickly access and disassemble multiple camera devices, which brings significant inconvenience to subsequent maintenance or replacement operations, not only prolongs the downtime of the device, but also may affect the food production efficiency. SUMMARY

[0004] The present application relates to a continuous intelligent substandard product sorting device for food production and processing, which only needs to drive the motor to rotate to quickly move the two drive rollers inward, cancel the tensioning of the sorting belt, make the loose sorting belt easy to disassemble, and facilitate the replacement or maintenance of the sorting belt. In the process of canceling the tensioning of the sorting belt, the corresponding structure also controls the lifting of the limiting sleeve to cancel the compression positioning of the limiting insert plate, cancels the fixation of the limiting insert plate and the sorting cylinder, facilitates the disassembly of the sorting cylinder, and facilitates the replacement or maintenance of the sorting cylinder. When the limiting sleeve is lifted to cancel the positioning of the sorting cylinder, the corresponding structure also controls the rear movement of the clamping strip, the clamping disc and the clamping turntable, so that the clamping turntable no longer clamps and positions the detection camera in the fixed sleeve, facilitating the replacement or maintenance of the detection camera.

[0005] The application provides a food production and processing substandard product continuous intelligent sorting device, which specifically comprises a supporting seat and a detection frame, a driving rod is rotatably installed at the bottom of the supporting seat, sliding grooves are formed in the left and right ends of the rear side of the supporting seat, sliding blocks are slidably installed in the sliding grooves, a driving shaft is rotatably installed on the sliding blocks, driving rollers are fixedly installed on the circumferential outer wall of the driving shaft, a sorting belt is tightly installed on the driving rollers, a supporting plate is fixedly installed at the middle position of the inner side of the detection frame, limiting plates are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the top of the supporting plate, a conversion piece is slidably installed on the top of the supporting plate, a conversion plate is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the rear side of the conversion piece, a conversion groove is formed in the rear side of the conversion plate, a detection plate is fixedly installed at the top of the front side of the detection frame, a fixed sleeve is rotatably installed at the middle position of the front side of the detection plate, a detection camera is inserted into the fixed sleeve, clamping strips are slidably installed on the detection plate, stress grooves are formed in the bottom of the clamping strips, and clamping discs are fixedly installed at the front end of the clamping strips.

[0006] Further, two opposite wire teeth are symmetrically formed on the driving rod, a driving motor is fixedly installed on the right side of the supporting seat, and the output shaft of the driving motor is in spline connection with the right end of the driving rod.

[0007] Further, the driving rod is connected with the sliding block through the wire teeth, a transmission piece is fixedly installed on the inner side of the sliding block, a running motor is fixedly installed at the rear side of the sliding block on the left side, and the rear end of the driving shaft on the left side is in spline connection with the output shaft of the running motor.

[0008] Further, a collecting box is placed at the bottom front side and the bottom left end of the sorting belt, a transmission column is fixedly installed at the rear end of the transmission piece, and the transmission piece is slidably connected to the detection frame.

[0009] Further, a sorting cylinder is placed on the supporting plate, a sorting push plate is fixedly installed on the output end of the sorting cylinder, limiting insertion plates are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the sorting cylinder, and the limiting insertion plates are inserted into the limiting plates.

[0010] Further, the conversion groove is in an inclined structure, the transmission column is slidably installed in the conversion groove, and a limiting sleeve is fixedly installed on the inner side of the conversion piece.

[0011] Further, the limiting sleeve is sleeved on the limiting plate and also presses on the limiting insertion plate, and a connecting plate is fixedly installed on the top of the conversion piece.

[0013] Further, a locking bolt is threadedly mounted on the outer wall of the fixing sleeve.

[0014] Further, a spring is embedded between the rear side of the clamping disc and the front side of the detection plate.

[0015] The application provides a continuous substandard product intelligent sorting device for food production and processing, which has the following beneficial effects. 1. Only the driving motor needs to be started to rotate, so as to quickly drive the two driving rollers to move inward and cancel the tension of the sorting belt synchronously, at this time, the sorting belt is in a loose state, and a worker can easily disassemble it, thereby greatly simplifying the replacement or maintenance operation of the sorting belt.

[0016] 2. In the process of gradually canceling the tension of the sorting belt, the linkage structure of the device synchronously controls the upward movement of the limiting sleeve, so as to release the compression positioning of the limiting plate, which directly cancels the fixed relationship between the limiting plate and the sorting cylinder, so that the sorting cylinder has the condition of being quickly disassembled, thereby facilitating the replacement or maintenance of the sorting cylinder.

[0017] 3. When the limiting sleeve rises and completely releases the positioning of the sorting cylinder, the corresponding transmission structure of the device further controls the whole backward movement of the clamping strip, the clamping disc and the clamping disc, which makes the clamping disc escape from the clamping state of the detection camera, and no longer fixes the detection camera on the fixing sleeve, thereby providing convenience for the replacement or maintenance of the detection camera.

[0018] 4. Through single operation of the driving motor, the sorting device can be quickly switched to the standby detection state, in which the sorting belt remains loose, the sorting cylinder and the detection camera are in a non-fixed state, and all the core components can be directly and quickly disassembled, thereby significantly improving the convenience of replacement and maintenance of the main components of the device.

The running motor 106 is operated to drive the sorting belt 109 to run from right to left to convey the packaged food, the detection camera 2014 detects the food packaging during the conveying process, if the food packaging is damaged, the transmission module in the detection camera 2014 can timely transmit a signal to the receiving module in the sorting cylinder 203 to make the sorting cylinder 203 control the sorting push plate 204 to move forward and push the food with damaged packaging into a suitable collection box, so that the defective products are sorted, and the detection mechanism in the device has two sets, which can continuously and intelligently sort the products, and the defective products are not easy to be missed.

[0024] In the embodiment two, on the basis of the embodiment one, two opposite threads are symmetrically arranged on the driving rod 101; the driving motor 102 is fixedly installed on the right side of the support base 1; the output shaft of the driving motor 102 is in spline connection with the right end of the driving rod 101; the driving rod 101 is connected with the sliding block 104 through the threads; the transmission member 105 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the sliding block 104; the operating motor 106 is fixedly installed on the rear side of the left sliding block 104; the rear end of the left driving shaft 107 is in spline connection with the output shaft of the operating motor 106; one collecting box is placed on the bottom front side and the bottom left end of the sorting belt 109; the transmission column 1010 is fixedly installed on the rear end of the transmission member 105; the transmission member 105 is slidingly connected on the detection frame 2; the sorting cylinder 203 is placed on the support plate 201; the sorting push plate 204 is fixedly installed on the output end of the sorting cylinder 203; the limiting insert plate 205 is fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the sorting cylinder 203; the limiting insert plate 205 is insertedly installed on the limiting plate 202; in the process of canceling the tension of the sorting belt 109, the corresponding structure will also control the limiting sleeve 209 to rise to cancel the compression positioning of the limiting insert plate 205, cancel the fixation of the limiting insert plate 205 and the sorting cylinder 203, facilitate the disassembly of the sorting cylinder 203, and facilitate the replacement or maintenance of the sorting cylinder 203. When the device needs to be maintained, the driving motor 102 is started to rotate with the driving rod 101, the driving rod 101 moves the two sliding blocks 104, the two driving shafts 107 and the two driving rollers 108 to move inwardly, the two driving rollers 108 cancel the tension of the sorting belt 109 by moving inwardly, which is beneficial to the disassembly, maintenance or replacement of the sorting belt 109.

[0025] In the embodiment three, on the basis of the embodiment two, the conversion groove 208 is in an inclined structure; the transmission column 1010 is slidingly installed in the inside of the conversion groove 208; the limiting sleeve 209 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the conversion member 206; the limiting sleeve 209 is sleeved on the limiting plate 202 and also presses on the limiting insert plate 205; the connecting plate 2010 is fixedly installed on the top of the conversion member 206; the jacking block 2011 is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting plate 2010; the top end of the jacking block 2011 is in an inclined structure; the locking bolt 2015 is threadedly installed on the outer wall of the fixed sleeve 2013; the rear end of the stress groove 2017 is in an inclined structure; the spring is embedded between the rear side of the clamping disc 2018 and the front side of the detection plate 2012; the clamping turntable 2019 is rotationally installed on the front side of the clamping disc 2018; the clamping turntable 2019 is clamped and tightly attached on the detection camera 2014; when the limiting sleeve 209 rises to cancel the positioning of the sorting cylinder 203, the corresponding structure will also control the clamping strip 2016, the clamping disc 2018 and the clamping turntable 2019 to move backward, so that the clamping turntable 2019 no longer clamps and positions the detection camera 2014 on the fixed sleeve 2013, which is convenient for the replacement or maintenance of the detection camera 2014. When the sliding block 104 moves inward, the transmission member 105 and the transmission column 1010 also move inward, and the transmission column 1010 moves upward with the conversion plate 207, the conversion member 206, the limiting sleeve 209 and the pushing block 2011 during the inward movement by using the inclined structure of the conversion groove 208, so that the limiting sleeve 209 is no longer sleeved on the limiting plate 202, and the compression on the limiting plug plate 205 is cancelled, so that the limiting plug plate 205 and the sorting cylinder 203 can move, which is convenient for disassembling, maintaining or replacing the sorting cylinder 203. After the pushing block 2011 moves upward to a certain position, it pushes the inclined surface of the stress groove 2017, so that the stress groove 2017 moves backward with the clamping strip 2016, the clamping disc 2018 and the clamping turntable 2019 under stress, so that the clamping turntable 2019 no longer exerts clamping force on the detection camera 2014, the positioning of the detection camera 2014 is cancelled, and the staff can disassemble the detection camera 2014 from the inside of the fixing sleeve 2013, which is convenient for maintaining or replacing the detection camera 2014.

[0026] The working principle of the embodiment is as follows: in use, the operation motor 106 is started, and the power is transmitted to the driving roller 108 through the driving shaft 107 to drive the sorting belt 109 to operate, thereby realizing the conveying of the packaged food, and in the conveying process, the detection camera 2014 performs real-time visual detection on the moving food package, if the food package is found to be damaged, the transmission module built in the detection camera 2014 will immediately send a signal to the receiving module of the sorting cylinder 203, triggering the sorting cylinder 203 to control the sorting push plate 204 to move forward, and the defective food with damaged package is pushed into the corresponding collection box, and the sorting of the defective food is completed. In addition, the device is equipped with two independent detection mechanisms, which can realize continuous intelligent sorting and effectively reduce the probability of missed detection of defective products. When the device needs to be maintained, the driving motor 102 is started, and the driving rod 101 is rotated, and the driving rod 101 drives the two sliding blocks 104, the driving shaft 107 and the driving roller 108 to move inwardly by means of the opposite threads at the two ends, so that the driving roller 108 releases the tensioning force on the sorting belt 109, and the sorting belt 109 can be easily disassembled for maintenance or replacement. At the same time, when the sliding block 104 moves inwardly, the transmission member 105 and the transmission column 1010 move inwardly simultaneously; during the movement of the transmission column 1010, the inclined structure of the conversion groove 208 pushes the conversion plate 207, the conversion member 206, the limiting sleeve 209 and the push block 2011 to move upwardly as a whole, which not only makes the limiting sleeve 209 disengage from the limiting plate 202, but also releases the compression positioning of the limiting insert plate 205, so that the limiting insert plate 205 and the sorting cylinder 203 restore the active state, facilitating the disassembly of the sorting cylinder 203 for maintenance or replacement. When the push block 2011 moves upwardly to a specific position, the inclined surface of the stressed groove 2017 is pushed, and the stressed groove 2017 transmits the force to the clamping strip 2016, thereby driving the clamping disc 2018 and the clamping disc 2019 to move backwardly, so that the clamping disc 2019 no longer applies the clamping force to the detection camera 2014, and the positioning state of the detection camera 2014 is released. At this time, the detection camera 2014 can be disassembled from the fixed sleeve 2013, facilitating the maintenance or replacement operation.

[0027] In this paper, the following points need attention: 1. The drawings of the embodiments of the present application only involve the structures involved in the embodiments of the present application, and other structures can refer to the usual design.

[0028] 2. In the case of no conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined to obtain new embodiments.

[0029] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or replacements within the technical scope disclosed by the present application, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
