Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of cotton testing technology, specifically a cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device. Background Technology
[0002] A cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device is a specialized device for inspecting cotton. During the packaging, transportation, and storage of raw cotton or cotton fibers, embedded RFID tags enable unique identification, traceability, and inventory management. The scanner reads information from the RFID tags to assist in inventory checks, traceability, and quality recording. RFID tags are placed on cotton packaging, batches, pallets, or bags. The scanner (usually handheld or desktop) quickly reads the tags and combines this data with sensor data (such as quality indicators, origin, batch number, and inspection date) to form a complete data record.
[0003] Existing cotton inspection scanners equipped with RFID wireless identification devices can scan RFID tags on cotton packaging, allowing operators to quickly understand the basic information of the cotton and complete the inspection and warehousing. However, for cotton quality inspection, the equipment is not convenient for direct quality testing. It usually requires the use of other tools for multiple inspections, which is relatively inefficient, affecting work efficiency and making it difficult to quickly perform initial screening.
[0004] Therefore, the present invention provides a cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies and solve the problem of inconvenience in directly inspecting cotton quality, this invention proposes a cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve its technical problem is as follows: The present invention provides a cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device, including a scanner body, a display screen on the top of the scanner body, an RFID identification component on one side of the scanner body, a handheld mechanism at the bottom of the scanner body, and a control module inside the scanner body, and the control module is electrically connected to the display screen and the RFID identification component respectively. A frame is fixedly installed at the bottom of the scanner body. Square slots are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the frame. Concave frames are symmetrically arranged inside the frame, and one side of the concave frame passes through the square slot. An adjustment mechanism for adjusting the position of the concave frame is installed inside the frame. A support frame is installed inside the concave frame. A transparent plate is embedded inside the support frame, and the top of the transparent plate is on the same plane as the top of the support frame. A detection light is installed inside the concave frame, and the detection light is located below the transparent plate. The concave frame has a concave groove on its side, and the concave groove is located on one side of the support frame. A baffle is installed inside the concave groove. A reset mechanism for resetting the baffle is installed inside the concave frame. A cleaning mechanism is installed inside the frame.
[0007] By adopting the above solution, when using a cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device to inspect cotton, each bale of cotton is affixed with an RFID electronic tag before inspection. The tag stores a unique code that is linked to the cotton's origin, variety, buyer, and initial processing information. When using the scanner itself, the scanner body is moved by a handheld mechanism so that the RFID identification component is aligned with the RFID electronic tag. Without touching the tag, the unique code of the cotton bale can be read instantly, replacing tedious manual registration and scanning operations, improving inspection efficiency. After reading the code, the control module inside the scanner body processes the information (existing technology) and displays the identified information on the screen, making it convenient for personnel to understand the basic information of the cotton being inspected. The control module has an internal battery that is electrically connected to the electronic equipment on the cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device, providing power for the electronic equipment. The control module's built-in circuit board is also electrically connected to the electronic equipment. Through the control module, the electronic equipment on the cotton inspection scanner with the RFID wireless identification device can be controlled. When inspecting cotton quality, the control adjustment mechanism moves, pushing the concave frame to move. A square slot facilitates the smooth movement of the concave frame. After the concave frame is fully extended, the support frame and transparent plate move to the outside. Then, the cotton sample to be inspected is taken and placed on the transparent plate. The detection lamp is activated to illuminate the cotton sample. Through light transmission, the appearance and structural differences of the cotton can be magnified, making it particularly suitable for rapid on-site screening. This facilitates the identification of impurities and foreign objects. Under strong light, impurities will appear as dark shadows or opaque particles due to the significant difference in light transmittance between the cotton and its fibers, creating a clear contrast with the fluffy, semi-transparent texture of the cotton. This enables rapid on-site detection of cotton quality, providing a direct understanding of the cotton's quality and achieving rapid initial screening, thus improving the practicality of the cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device.
[0008] Preferably, the adjustment mechanism includes a bidirectional lead screw, a slider, a guide rod, and a drive plate. The bidirectional lead screw is rotatably disposed inside the frame, the slider is symmetrically disposed inside the frame, and the outer surface of the bidirectional lead screw is threadedly connected to the inside of the slider. The guide rod is fixedly disposed inside the frame and passes through the slider. One end of the drive plate is movably connected to the concave frame, and the other end of the drive plate is movably connected to the corresponding slider. A limiting shaft is fixedly installed inside the frame, a guide block is fixedly installed at the bottom of the concave frame, and the limiting shaft passes through the corresponding guide block. A support groove is fixedly installed on the side of the frame, and a drive component is installed inside the support groove.
[0009] By adopting the above scheme, when the bidirectional lead screw rotates, the guide block will move in the opposite direction. When inspecting the quality of cotton, the drive assembly moves to drive the bidirectional lead screw to rotate. When the bidirectional lead screw rotates, the slider will move. The guide rod will guide the slider to move smoothly. When the slider moves, the drive plate will push the concave frame to move, and the position of the concave frame can be adjusted. When the concave frame moves, it will drive the guide block to move. The limit shaft cooperates with the guide block to guide the concave frame and make the concave frame move smoothly.
[0010] Preferably, the drive assembly includes a reducer and a dual-output shaft motor. The reducer is fixedly installed inside the support groove, and the output end of the reducer is fixedly connected to the end of the bidirectional lead screw. The dual-output shaft motor is fixedly installed inside the support groove, and one output end of the dual-output shaft motor is fixedly connected to the input end of the reducer, while the other output end of the dual-output shaft motor is fixedly connected to a drive wheel.
[0011] By adopting the above scheme, the dual-output shaft motor will drive the reducer to move, and the reducer will drive the bidirectional lead screw to rotate when it moves. In addition, the dual-output shaft motor will drive the drive wheel to rotate when it moves.
[0012] Preferably, the handheld mechanism includes a handle and a rubber sleeve. The handle is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the scanner body, the rubber sleeve is mounted on the handle, and a light is provided on the side of the frame, with the light located on one side of the RFID identification component.
[0013] By adopting the above solution, the handle can be improved with a rubber sleeve to enhance the anti-slip effect, thereby facilitating the movement of the mobile scanner body to identify and inspect cotton. When identifying cotton RFID tags, the lighting can be controlled to illuminate the location of the RFID tag, thus making it easier to determine the location of the RFID tag for identification in poor lighting conditions.
[0014] Preferably, the cleaning mechanism includes a support block, a support plate, a strip plate, and a rubber scraper. The support block is fixedly installed inside the frame, the support plate is fixedly installed on the support block, the side of the strip plate is fixedly connected to the end of the support plate, the rubber scraper is fixedly installed below the strip plate, a storage groove is provided inside the concave frame, and the strip plate is installed inside the corresponding storage groove. The bottom of the rubber scraper is in contact with the top of the support frame. A through groove is provided inside the concave frame, and the through groove is connected to the corresponding storage groove. Drive blocks are arranged in an array on the strip plate.
[0015] By adopting the above scheme, when the concave frame moves to the outside, the rubber scraper, in conjunction with the strip plate, scrapes away any remaining impurities on the support frame and the transparent plate. When the concave frame moves to the predetermined position, the strip plate moves into the storage groove. After the strip plate is fully inside the storage groove, it pushes the impurities into the through groove. Through the through groove, the debris and impurities fall to the outside, further improving the cleanliness of the inspection area and facilitating the inspection of cotton quality. Conversely, when storing the concave frame, the rubber scraper cleans the other side of the support frame and the transparent plate, allowing the debris scraped by the rubber scraper to accumulate in one place. When the concave frame is fully inside the frame, the drive block pushes the baffle to move, no longer sealing the concave groove, and the impurities fall to the outside through the concave groove, ensuring the cleanliness of the inspection area.
[0016] Preferably, the concave frame has a guide groove inside that corresponds to the support plate, and the support plate passes through the corresponding guide groove.
[0017] By adopting the above scheme, the guide groove will move synchronously when the concave frame moves, and the guide groove can slide easily on the support plate.
[0018] Preferably, the reset mechanism includes a sliding groove, a sliding block, a stop block, a sliding rod, and a reset spring. The sliding groove is symmetrically embedded inside the concave frame. The sliding block is slidably disposed inside the sliding groove, and one side of the sliding block is fixedly connected to the baffle. The stop block is fixedly disposed inside the sliding groove. The end of the sliding rod is fixedly connected to the sliding block and passes through the stop block. The reset spring is arranged around the sliding rod, and one end of the reset spring is fixedly connected to the stop block, and the other end of the reset spring is fixedly connected to the sliding rod.
[0019] By adopting the above scheme, when the drive block pushes the baffle to move, the movement of the baffle will cause the sliding block to move synchronously. The movement of the sliding block will cause the sliding rod to move, and with the cooperation of the baffle, one end of the sliding rod will squeeze the return spring, causing the return spring to compress and the concave frame to move outward a short distance. The drive block will no longer be in contact with the baffle, the return spring will reset, and it will push the sliding rod to reset. In turn, the sliding block will cause the baffle to reset and seal the concave groove.
[0020] Preferably, the concave frame has a cavity inside, and a guide groove passes through the cavity. Strip-shaped through holes are provided on both sides of the guide groove. Racks are symmetrically arranged on the support plate. A rotating shaft is rotatably arranged inside the cavity. A driven gear is fixedly arranged on the rotating shaft and meshes with the rack. A driving gear is fixedly arranged on the rotating shaft and is located below the driven gear.
[0021] By adopting the above scheme, when the concave frame moves, it will drive the rotating shaft and the driven gear to move. Through the cooperation of the rack and the driven gear, the rotating shaft will rotate, and the rotation of the rotating shaft will cause the drive gear to rotate.
[0022] Preferably, a protective cover is provided inside the cavity, and the protective cover is located on one side of the rotating shaft. A gear disk is rotatably arranged inside the protective cover, and the gear disk meshes with a drive gear. A push plate is rotatably arranged on the top of the gear disk, and a transmission plate is movably connected to one end of the push plate. A guide frame is fixedly arranged inside the protective cover, and a push rod passes through the guide frame. One end of the push rod is movably connected to the other end of the transmission plate. A striking block is fixedly arranged at one end of the push rod. A load-bearing frame is provided inside the protective cover, and the striking block is arranged inside the load-bearing frame.
[0023] By adopting the above scheme, the rotation of the drive gear will drive the gear disk to rotate. When the gear disk rotates, it will cause the push rod to move through the cooperation of the push plate and the transmission plate. The guide frame will make the push rod move smoothly. The repeated movement of the push rod will drive the striking block to move repeatedly. In turn, the movement of the striking block will strike the inside of the load-bearing frame, causing the protective cover to vibrate. At the same time, the vibration will be transmitted to the concave frame. The concave frame is set at an angle, which will cause the residual impurities to slide to the lower part and the debris on the concave frame and the transparent plate to flow to one side. This will further ensure the cleanliness of the detection area and ensure the accuracy of cotton inspection.
[0024] Preferably, the strip plate has a flow divider groove embedded inside, and spray holes are arrayed on the flow divider groove. A mounting frame is fixedly installed inside the support groove, and a fan is installed on the mounting frame. The impeller inside the fan is connected to a driven wheel through a shaft, and adjacent driven wheels are connected by belt drive. One of the driven wheels is connected to the drive wheel by belt drive. The output end of the fan is connected to the corresponding flow divider groove through a pipe.
[0025] By adopting the above scheme, when the dual-output shaft motor drives the drive wheel to rotate, the belt will drive the fan to move. The fan will generate airflow into the diversion channel and through the spray holes, the airflow will flow to the support frame and the surface of the transparent plate on one side for cleaning, thus ensuring the accuracy of subsequent cotton inspection.
[0026] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: 1. The cotton quality inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device described in this invention facilitates cotton quality inspection through a concave frame, a transparent plate, and a detection light. During inspection, the position of the concave frame is adjusted by moving the drive assembly, and the support frame and transparent plate are moved to the outside. The cotton sample to be inspected is then placed on the transparent plate, and the detection light is activated to illuminate the sample. Through light transmission, the appearance and structural differences of the cotton can be magnified, making it particularly suitable for rapid on-site screening and easy identification of impurities and foreign objects. Under strong light, impurities become more visible due to the significant difference in light transmittance compared to cotton fibers; they appear as dark shadows or opaque particles, creating a clear contrast with the fluffy, semi-transparent texture of the cotton. This enables rapid on-site cotton quality inspection, providing a direct understanding of cotton quality and achieving rapid initial screening. This improves the practicality and efficiency of the cotton quality inspection scanner equipped with the RFID wireless identification device.
[0027] 2. The cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device described in this invention facilitates the removal of residual cotton impurities in the inspection area through the designed rubber scraper and concave groove, ensuring the accuracy of cotton quality inspection. After cotton quality inspection, the concave frame slides into the frame through the adjustment mechanism. The rubber scraper cleans one side of the support frame and transparent plate, allowing the scraped debris to accumulate in one place. When the concave frame is fully inside the frame, the drive block pushes the baffle to move, and the impurities fall to the outside through the concave groove. When the concave frame is stored, the rubber scraper cleans the other side of the support frame and transparent plate, pushing the impurities into the through groove. Through the through groove, the debris and impurities fall to the outside, ensuring the cleanliness of the inspection area and guaranteeing the quality inspection of cotton.
[0028] 3. The cotton quality inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device described in this invention, through the cooperation of a protective cover and a load-bearing frame, can clean the inspection area during cotton quality inspection, ensuring the accuracy of the inspection. When the position of the concave frame is adjusted, the rack and pinion, through the cooperation of the driven gear, will cause the push rod to move repeatedly, driving the striking block to move repeatedly. The movement of the striking block will then strike the inside of the load-bearing frame, causing the protective cover to vibrate. At the same time, the vibration will be transmitted to the concave frame. The concave frame is tilted, causing residual impurities to slide to the lower position, and causing debris on the concave frame and the transparent plate to flow to one side, thereby further ensuring the cleanliness of the inspection area and ensuring the accuracy of cotton inspection by the cotton quality inspection scanner equipped with the RFID wireless identification device.
[0029] 4. The cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device described in this invention facilitates the cleaning of the inspection area through the setting of a fan and a diversion trough, further ensuring the accuracy of cotton quality inspection. When the dual-shaft motor drives the drive wheel to rotate, the fan will move through the belt. The air force generated by the fan will flow into the diversion trough, and through the spray holes, the air force will flow to the support frame and the surface of the transparent plate on one side, thereby cleaning the cotton and ensuring the accuracy of cotton inspection by the cotton inspection scanner equipped with the RFID wireless identification device.

[0033] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this invention easier to understand, the invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0034] like Figures 1 to 13 As shown in the embodiment of the present invention, a cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device includes a scanner body 1. A display screen 2 is mounted on the top of the scanner body 1, an RFID identification component 6 is mounted on one side of the scanner body 1, and a handheld mechanism is mounted on the bottom of the scanner body 1. A control module 3 is installed inside the scanner body 1 and is electrically connected to the display screen 2 and the RFID identification component 6. A frame 7 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the scanner body 1. Square slots 9 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the frame 7, and concave frames 10 are symmetrically arranged inside the frame 7, with one side of the concave frame 10 penetrating through a square slot. The groove 9 and frame 7 are equipped with an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the position of the concave frame 10. The concave frame 10 is equipped with a support frame 11. A transparent plate 12 is embedded in the support frame 11, and the top of the transparent plate 12 is on the same plane as the top of the support frame 11. A detection light 13 is installed inside the concave frame 10, and the detection light 13 is located below the transparent plate 12. A concave groove 32 is provided on the side of the concave frame 10, and the concave groove 32 is located on one side of the support frame 11. A baffle 33 is installed inside the concave groove 32. A reset mechanism for resetting the baffle 33 is installed inside the concave frame 10. A cleaning mechanism is installed inside the frame 7. When using a cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device to inspect cotton, each bale of cotton is affixed with an RFID electronic tag before inspection. The tag stores a unique code that is linked to the cotton's origin, variety, buyer, and initial processing information. When using the scanner body 1, the scanner body 1 is moved by a handheld mechanism so that the RFID identification component 6 is aligned with the RFID electronic tag. The unique code of the cotton bale can be read instantly without touching the tag, replacing tedious manual registration and scanning operations, improving inspection efficiency. After reading the code, the control module 3 inside the scanner body 1 processes the information (existing technology) and displays the identified information on the display screen 2, making it convenient for personnel to understand the basic information of the inspected cotton. The control module 3 has a built-in battery that is electrically connected to the electronic equipment on the cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device, providing power for the operation of the electronic equipment. The circuit board built into the control module 3 is also electrically connected to the electronic equipment. The control module 3 can control the operation of the electronic equipment on the cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device (existing technology). When cotton quality needs to be inspected, the movement of the control adjustment mechanism will push the concave frame 10 to move. The square groove 9 facilitates the smooth movement of the concave frame 10. After the concave frame 10 moves out of the frame 7 and is fully unfolded, the support frame 11 and the transparent plate 12 will move to the outside. Then, the cotton sample to be inspected is taken and placed on the transparent plate 12. The detection lamp 13 is controlled to work to generate light to illuminate the cotton sample. Through light transmission, the appearance and structural differences of the cotton can be magnified. It is especially suitable for rapid on-site screening and easy to identify impurities and foreign objects. Under strong light, the difference in light transmittance and cotton fiber will be obvious. Impurities (such as cottonseed hulls and soil clods) will appear as dark shadows or opaque particles, which will form a clear contrast with the fluffy and semi-transparent texture of the cotton. This enables rapid on-site detection of cotton quality, intuitive understanding of cotton quality, and rapid initial screening. It also improves the practicality of the cotton public inspection scanner equipped with RFID wireless identification device. After the cotton quality inspection, the test sample is removed. By adjusting the movement of the mechanism, the position of the concave frame 10 is moved, causing it to slide into the frame 7. As the concave frame 10 moves, it drives the support frame 11 and the transparent plate 12 to move. The cleaning mechanism removes any remaining impurities from the support frame 11 and the transparent plate 12, thus ensuring the cleanliness of the inspection area. After the concave frame 10 is fully inside the frame 7, the cleaning mechanism drives the baffle 33 to move, so that the baffle 33 no longer seals the concave groove 32. The cleaned impurities fall to the outside through the concave groove 32, thus achieving the purpose of cleaning the inspection area and preventing impurities from accumulating in the inspection area and affecting the cotton inspection effect. After cleaning the area, by adjusting the movement of the mechanism, the concave frame 10 moves a short distance outward, no longer limiting the baffle 33, allowing the baffle 33 to reset and seal the concave groove 32.
[0035] Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism includes a bidirectional lead screw 17, a slider 18, a guide rod 19, and a drive plate 20. The bidirectional lead screw 17 is rotatably disposed inside the frame 7, and the slider 18 is symmetrically disposed inside the frame 7. The outer surface of the bidirectional lead screw 17 is threadedly connected to the inside of the slider 18. The guide rod 19 is fixedly disposed inside the frame 7 and passes through the slider 18. One end of the drive plate 20 is movably connected to the concave frame 10, and the other end of the drive plate 20 is movably connected to the corresponding slider 18. A limit shaft 22 is fixedly disposed inside the frame 7. A guide block 21 is fixedly disposed at the bottom of the concave frame 10, and the limit shaft 22 passes through the corresponding guide block 21. A support groove 14 is fixedly disposed on the side of the frame 7, and a drive assembly is disposed inside the support groove 14. The bidirectional lead screw 17 has two opposite threads, which are threadedly connected to the corresponding guide blocks 21. When the bidirectional lead screw 17 rotates, the guide blocks 21 move in opposite directions. When inspecting the cotton quality, the drive assembly drives the bidirectional lead screw 17 to rotate. When the bidirectional lead screw 17 rotates, the slider 18 moves. The guide rod 19 guides the slider 18, allowing it to move smoothly. When the slider 18 moves, the drive plate 20 pushes the concave frame 10 to move, allowing the position of the concave frame 10 to be adjusted. When the concave frame 10 moves, it drives the guide blocks 21 to move. The limit shaft 22 cooperates with the guide blocks 21 to guide the concave frame 10, allowing it to move smoothly.
[0036] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a reducer 15 and a dual-output shaft motor 16. The reducer 15 is fixedly installed inside the support groove 14, and the output end of the reducer 15 is fixedly connected to the end of the bidirectional lead screw 17. The dual-output shaft motor 16 is fixedly installed inside the support groove 14, and one of the output ends of the dual-output shaft motor 16 is fixedly connected to the input end of the reducer 15. The other output end of the dual-output shaft motor 16 is fixedly connected to a drive wheel 53. When the drive component moves, the dual-output shaft motor 16 is controlled to work, which will drive the reducer 15 to move. When the reducer 15 moves, it will drive the bidirectional lead screw 17 to rotate. When the dual-output shaft motor 16 moves, it will drive the drive wheel 53 to rotate.
[0037] Furthermore, the handheld mechanism includes a handle 4 and a rubber sleeve 5. The handle 4 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the scanner body 1, and the rubber sleeve 5 is fitted onto the handle 4. An illumination lamp 8 is provided on the side of the frame 7, and the illumination lamp 8 is located on one side of the RFID identification component 6. When inspectors use a cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device to inspect cotton, they hold the handle 4. The rubber sleeve 5 can improve the anti-slip effect, making it easier to move the scanner body 1 to identify and inspect the cotton. When identifying the RFID tag on the cotton, the lighting lamp 8 can be controlled to produce light to illuminate the location of the RFID tag, making it easier to determine the location of the RFID tag for identification in poor lighting conditions.
[0038] Furthermore, the cleaning mechanism includes a support block 23, a support plate 24, a strip plate 26, and a rubber scraper 27. The support block 23 is fixedly installed inside the frame 7, the support plate 24 is fixedly installed on the support block 23, the side of the strip plate 26 is fixedly connected to the end of the support plate 24, the rubber scraper 27 is fixedly installed below the strip plate 26, the concave frame 10 is provided with a storage groove 30, and the strip plate 26 is installed inside the corresponding storage groove 30. The bottom of the rubber scraper 27 is attached to the top of the support frame 11. The concave frame 10 is provided with a through groove 31, and the through groove 31 is connected to the corresponding storage groove 30. The strip plate 26 is provided with an array of drive blocks 28. The rubber scraper 27 and the strip plate 26 are detachably connected. When impurities are adsorbed on the rubber scraper 27 and are difficult to remove, the rubber scraper 27 can be disassembled and replaced. As the concave frame 10 moves outward, the rubber scraper 27, in conjunction with the strip plate 26, scrapes away any remaining impurities above the support frame 11 and the transparent plate 12. Once the concave frame 10 reaches its predetermined position, the strip plate 26 moves into the storage groove 30. Before the strip plate 26 fully enters the storage groove 30, it pushes the impurities into the through groove 31. Through the through groove 31, the debris and impurities fall to the outside, further... To improve the cleanliness of the inspection area and facilitate the inspection of cotton quality, the rubber scraper 27 cleans the other side of the support frame 11 and the transparent plate 12 when the concave frame 10 is stored. This allows the debris scraped off by the rubber scraper 27 to accumulate in one place. When the concave frame 10 is completely inside the frame 7, the drive block 28 will push the baffle 33 to move, no longer sealing the concave groove 32. Impurities will fall to the outside through the concave groove 32, ensuring the cleanliness of the inspection area.
[0039] Furthermore, the concave frame 10 is provided with a guide groove 29 corresponding to the support plate 24, and the support plate 24 passes through the corresponding guide groove 29. When the concave frame 10 moves, it will drive the guide groove 29 to move synchronously, and the guide groove 29 can slide on the support plate 24.
[0040] Furthermore, the reset mechanism includes a sliding groove 34, a sliding block 35, a stop block 36, a sliding rod 37, and a reset spring 38. The sliding groove 34 is symmetrically embedded inside the concave frame 10. The sliding block 35 is slidably disposed inside the sliding groove 34, and one side of the sliding block 35 is fixedly connected to the baffle 33. The stop block 36 is fixedly disposed inside the sliding groove 34. The end of the sliding rod 37 is fixedly connected to the sliding block 35, and the sliding rod 37 passes through the stop block 36. The reset spring 38 is arranged around the sliding rod 37, and one end of the reset spring 38 is fixedly connected to the stop block 36, and the other end of the reset spring 38 is fixedly connected to the sliding rod 37. When the drive block 28 pushes the baffle 33 to move, the movement of the baffle 33 will cause the sliding block 35 to move synchronously. The movement of the sliding block 35 will cause the sliding rod 37 to move, which is coordinated with the stop block 36. One end of the sliding rod 37 will squeeze the return spring 38, causing the return spring 38 to compress and the concave frame 10 to move outward a short distance. The drive block 28 will no longer be in contact with the baffle 33, the return spring 38 will reset, and it will push the sliding rod 37 to reset. In turn, the sliding block 35 will cause the baffle 33 to reset and seal the concave groove 32.
[0041] Furthermore, the concave frame 10 has a cavity 39 inside, and the guide groove 29 passes through the cavity 39. The guide groove 29 has strip-shaped through holes on both sides. The support plate 24 has symmetrical racks 25. The cavity 39 has a rotating shaft 40 rotatably mounted inside. The rotating shaft 40 has a driven gear 41 fixedly mounted on it, and the driven gear 41 meshes with the rack 25. The rotating shaft 40 has a driving gear 42 fixedly mounted on it, and the driving gear 42 is located below the driven gear 41. When the concave frame 10 moves, it will drive the rotating shaft 40 and the driven gear 41 to move. Through the cooperation of the rack 25 and the driven gear 41, the rotating shaft 40 will rotate, and the rotation of the rotating shaft 40 will cause the drive gear 42 to rotate.
[0042] Furthermore, a protective cover 43 is provided inside the cavity 39, and the protective cover 43 is located on one side of the rotating shaft 40. A gear disk 44 is rotatably arranged inside the protective cover 43, and the gear disk 44 meshes with the drive gear 42. A push plate 45 is rotatably arranged on the top of the gear disk 44. A transmission plate 46 is movably connected to one end of the push plate 45. A guide frame 47 is fixedly arranged inside the protective cover 43. A push rod 49 passes through the guide frame 47, and one end of the push rod 49 is movably connected to the other end of the transmission plate 46. A striking block 50 is fixedly arranged on one end of the push rod 49. A load-bearing frame 48 is provided inside the protective cover 43, and the striking block 50 is arranged inside the load-bearing frame 48. The rotation of the drive gear 42 drives the gear disk 44 to rotate. When the gear disk 44 rotates, it moves the push rod 49 through the cooperation of the push plate 45 and the transmission plate 46. The push rod 49 moves smoothly through the guide frame 47. The repeated movement of the push rod 49 drives the striking block 50 to move repeatedly. The movement of the striking block 50 then strikes the inside of the load-bearing frame 48, causing the protective cover 43 to vibrate. At the same time, the vibration is transmitted to the concave frame 10. The concave frame 10 is set at an angle of 3°–8°. When the concave frame 10 vibrates, the residual impurities slide to the lower part, and the debris on the concave frame 10 and the transparent plate 12 flows to one side, thereby further ensuring the cleanliness of the detection area and ensuring the accuracy of cotton inspection.
[0043] Furthermore, a diversion groove 51 is embedded inside the strip plate 26, and spray holes 52 are arrayed on the diversion groove 51. A mounting frame 54 is fixedly installed inside the support groove 14, and a fan 55 is installed on the mounting frame 54. The impeller inside the fan 55 is connected to a driven wheel 56 through a shaft, and adjacent driven wheels 56 are connected by belt drive. One of the driven wheels 56 is connected to the drive wheel 53 by belt drive. The output end of the fan 55 is connected to the corresponding diversion groove 51 through a pipe. When the dual-output shaft motor 16 drives the drive wheel 53 to rotate, it will drive the fan 55 to move through the belt. The air generated by the fan 55 will flow into the diversion groove 51. Through the spray hole 52, the air will flow to the support frame 11 and the surface of the transparent plate 12 on one side for cleaning, which can ensure the accuracy of subsequent cotton inspection.
[0044] Working Principle: Firstly, when inspecting cotton using a cotton inspection scanner equipped with an RFID wireless identification device, each bale of cotton is affixed with an RFID electronic tag before inspection. The tag stores a unique code linked to the cotton's origin, variety, buyer, and initial processing information. When using the scanner body 1, the handheld mechanism moves the scanner body 1, aligning the RFID identification component 6 with the RFID electronic tag. Without touching the tag, the unique code of the cotton bale can be read instantly, replacing tedious manual registration and scanning operations, thus improving inspection efficiency. Furthermore, after reading the code, the control module 3 inside the scanner body 1 processes the information (existing technology), and the identified information is easily displayed on the screen 2, allowing personnel to understand the cotton inspection process. Basic information: When cotton quality needs to be inspected, the dual-output shaft motor 16 operates, driving the reducer 15 to move. The reducer 15 then drives the bidirectional lead screw 17 to rotate, and the dual-output shaft motor 16 also drives the drive wheel 53 to rotate. The rotation of the bidirectional lead screw 17 causes the guide block 21 to move in the opposite direction. During cotton quality inspection, the drive assembly moves, driving the bidirectional lead screw 17 to rotate. The rotation of the bidirectional lead screw 17 causes the slider 18 to move. The guide rod 19 guides the slider 18, ensuring smooth movement. As the slider 18 moves, the drive plate 20 pushes the concave frame 10 to move. The position of the concave frame 10 can be adjusted to ensure smooth movement. When the concave frame 10 moves outwards, it moves along with the concave... The movable rubber scraper 27 of the mold frame 10 cooperates with the strip plate 26 to scrape away impurities remaining above the support frame 11 and the transparent plate 12. When the concave frame 10 moves to the predetermined position, the strip plate 26 will move into the receiving groove 30. Before the strip plate 26 is fully inside the receiving groove 30, it will push the impurities into the through groove 31. Through the through groove 31, the debris and impurities will fall to the outside, thereby further improving the cleanliness of the inspection area and facilitating the inspection of cotton quality. The support frame 11 and the transparent plate 12 are moved to the outside. Then, the cotton sample to be inspected is taken out and placed on the transparent plate 12. The detection lamp 13 is controlled to generate light to illuminate the cotton sample. Through light transmission, the cotton sample can be magnified. The differences in appearance and structure of cotton fibers make them particularly suitable for rapid on-site screening, facilitating the identification of impurities and foreign objects. Under strong light, these differences in translucency and fiber structure become more apparent, while impurities (such as cottonseed hulls and soil clods) appear as dark shadows or opaque particles, creating a clear contrast with the fluffy, semi-transparent texture of cotton. This allows for rapid on-site testing of cotton quality, providing a direct understanding of its condition and achieving rapid initial screening. This enhances the practicality of cotton inspection scanners equipped with RFID wireless identification devices. After cotton quality testing, the sample is removed. Adjusting the mechanism moves the concave frame 10, causing it to slide inwards into the frame 7. This movement of the concave frame 10 moves the support frame 11 and the transparent plate 12. When the concave frame 10 is stored...The rubber scraper 27 cleans the other side of the support frame 11 and the transparent plate 12, allowing the scraped debris to accumulate in one place. When the concave frame 10 is fully inserted into the frame 7, the drive block 28 pushes the baffle 33 to move, no longer sealing the concave groove 32. Impurities fall to the outside through the concave groove 32, ensuring the cleanliness of the inspection area and facilitating cotton quality testing. When the dual-shaft motor 16 drives the drive wheel 53 to rotate, it drives the fan 55 through the belt. The air generated by the fan 55 flows into the diversion groove 51 and through the spray hole 52, directs the airflow to the surface of the support frame 11 and the transparent plate 12 on one side for cleaning, ensuring the accuracy of subsequent cotton inspection. When adjusting the position of the concave frame 10, it drives the rotating shaft 40 and the driven gear 41 to move. The rack 25 and driven gear 41 work together to rotate the rotating shaft 40, which in turn rotates the drive gear 42. The drive gear 42 then rotates the gear disk 44. The rotation of the gear disk 44, through the cooperation of the push plate 45 and transmission plate 46, causes the push rod 49 to move. The guide frame 47 ensures the push rod 49 moves smoothly. The repeated movement of the push rod 49 causes the striking block 50 to move repeatedly, which in turn strikes the inside of the load-bearing frame 48, causing the protective cover 43 to vibrate. Simultaneously, this vibration is transmitted to the concave frame 10. The concave frame 10 is tilted at an angle of 3°–8°. When the concave frame 10 vibrates, residual impurities slide to a lower position, and debris on the concave frame 10 and transparent plate 12 flows to one side, further ensuring the cleanliness of the inspection area and guaranteeing the accuracy of cotton inspection.
