[0033] As Figures 1-7As shown, a rice conveying device for rice processing, comprising: a conveying support 11, on which a rice conveying and dust collection mechanism 2 is arranged;

[0042] A conveying propeller 27 is rotatably arranged in the material conveying inner pipe 23, and the discharge end of the conveying propeller 27 is connected to the driving motor assembly 13 to drive the conveying of the rice.
[0043] The feeding end of the dust collection outer pipe 21 is provided with a feeding hopper 14, the discharge port of the feeding hopper 14 penetrates through the dust collection outer pipe 21 and is connected to the feeding end of the material conveying inner pipe 23, one end of the dust collection outer pipe 21 away from the feeding hopper 14 is provided with a discharge cylinder 15, and the discharge cylinder 15 penetrates through the bottom of the dust collection outer pipe 21 and is connected to the discharge end of the material conveying inner pipe 23.

[0045] The blowing and spraying assembly includes a gas supply pump 26, the outlet of which extends through a vertical spraying pipe 25 to the annular dust collection space and along the lower wall of the inner conveying pipe 23, and the vertical spraying pipe 25 is provided with a plurality of spraying heads arranged in an array to spray into the inner conveying pipe 23.
[0046] The dust removal net cover 28 is provided with a plurality of partition seats 29 to divide the dust collection space into three independent areas corresponding to the front, middle and rear sections.
[0047] The dust removal net cover 28 is flexibly connected with the lower half of the inner conveying pipe 23 through a split film 35, and the outer walls of the two are provided with elastic sheets 34, the elastic sheets 34 in the same section are connected through a connecting plate 31, the connecting plate 31 is provided with a vibrator 32, and the vibrator 32 is controlled according to the negative pressure data of a sensor 33 to drive the dust removal net cover 28 to shake to remove the blocked dust.
[0048] The outer wall of the outer dust collection pipe 21 is provided with a plurality of outer protective covers 24, and the vibrator 32 is located in the outer protective covers 24 and does not contact the inner walls of the outer protective covers 24 to provide a vibration space.
[0049] Rice grain conveying and basic air flow field establishment:
[0050] The rice grains enter the inner conveying pipe 23 from the feeding hopper 14. After starting, the driving motor assembly 13 drives the conveying propeller 27 to rotate to stably convey the rice grains to the discharging cylinder 15. At the same time, the system is initialized:
[0051] The blowing and spraying assembly: the gas supply pump 26 is started, and the airflow passes through the vertical spraying pipe 25 and the spraying heads thereon to be sprayed upward from the lower wall of the inner conveying pipe 23 at a specific angle and pressure. The airflow has two main effects: one is to generate a certain "air cushion" effect on the rice grains to reduce the friction and damage of the rice grains with the pipe wall; and the other is to lift the dust mixed in the rice grains and lifted due to the conveying upward to make the dust more easily close to the dust removal net cover 28 above.
[0052] The suction assembly: the three centrifugal dust collectors 12 start to work according to the preset parameters (usually set as the front section with the strongest suction, the middle section with the second strongest suction, and the rear section with the weakest suction, for example, the front section-2500Pa, the middle section-2000Pa, and the rear section-1500Pa) to form a stable negative pressure field in the annular dust collection space between the outer dust collection pipe 21 and the inner conveying pipe 23.
[0053] Segmented dynamic dust collection and "blowing-suction" cooperation: the dust attached to the inside and surface of the rice grains, mainly bran powder and broken grains, is separated and lifted under the stirring of the screw and the blowing of the bottom airflow. Due to the diamond-shaped mesh of the dust removal net cover 28 (the aperture is 0.5-1.2mm, which is much smaller than the minimum particle size of the rice grains, for example, the minimum particle size of typical japonica rice is about 3mm), the rice grains are blocked in the inner conveying pipe 23, and the dust with a particle size smaller than the mesh is sucked into the mesh under the action of the negative pressure in the dust collection space.
[0054] Real-time monitoring: Sensors 33 installed in the front, middle, and rear sections of the dust collection space continuously monitor the negative pressure values P1, P2, and P3 in these areas.
[0055] Intelligent feedback and adjustment: The intelligent control system receives these pressure data through the Internet of Things module. The system presets a normal negative pressure threshold range for each section (for example, the threshold range for the front section is -2300 Pa to -2700 Pa). When the rice contains a high amount of impurities or the dust concentration suddenly increases, a large amount of dust is sucked in, causing the mesh passability to temporarily decrease, resulting in an increase in the actual negative pressure absolute value of the section, P1 from -2500 Pa to -2900 Pa.
[0056] Triggering conditions: Once the negative pressure value monitored by any sensor 33 exceeds the preset upper threshold, i.e., the absolute value of the negative pressure is too large, the system determines that the section has a high dust load or is initially clogged.
[0057] Execution actions:
[0058] Pulsed dust collection: The intelligent control system immediately sends instructions to the corresponding centrifugal dust collector 12, causing it to increase power in a short period of time (e.g., 0.5-2 seconds) to perform strong pulsed dust collection (e.g., the suction force is instantly increased to -3500 Pa) to quickly suck up accumulated dust.
[0059] Linkage enhanced blowing: At the same time, the system controls the air supply pump 26 to increase the frequency and / or pressure of the air jet head on the vertical jet pipe 25 below the corresponding area, forming a stronger upward air flow. This "blowing-suction coordination" mechanism can more effectively "blow up" and immediately "suck away" the dust clogged in the mesh or attached to the bottom of the rice, greatly improving the instantaneous unblocking and dust removal efficiency.
[0060] Hierarchical processing: This design of independent response by area realizes "hierarchical and segmented processing" of dust. The rice with the most impurities receives the strongest suction force (e.g., an average of -2500 Pa) and more frequent blowing-suction coordination in the front section where most of the dust is removed; the pre-processed rice receives decreasing intensity (e.g., an average of -2000 Pa and -1500 Pa) in the middle and rear sections for fine dust removal, avoiding energy waste and excessive disturbance to the rice.
[0061] Active anti-clogging and cleaning mechanism: To prevent dust (especially slightly wet fine chaff) from adhering and accumulating on the mesh of the dust screen cover 28, causing persistent clogging, an active anti-clogging system is set up.
[0062] Vibration cleaning: When a certain section of sensor 33 detects that the negative pressure is abnormal and lasts more than a higher level threshold (or recovers slowly after pulse processing), the intelligent control system will start the vibrator 32 of this section. The vibrator 32 transmits high-frequency low-amplitude vibration to the dust screen cover 28 through the connecting plate 31 and the elastic sheet 34. Since the dust screen cover 28 is flexibly connected to the lower half through the dividing rubber sheet 35, it can effectively produce shaking and physically shake off the particles blocking the mesh. The vibration frequency can be adjusted according to the severity of the blockage, for example, intermittent vibration (such as 5 seconds of vibration every 10 minutes, amplitude 0.5 mm) for mild blockage, and continuous vibration (such as amplitude 1 mm) for severe blockage.
[0063] Safety protection: The vibrator 32 is placed in the outer protective cover 24, which not only provides the space required for vibration, but also avoids interference with external structures, ensuring the safety and stability of operation.
[0064] Intelligent management and early warning: The entire working process is coordinated by the intelligent control system. The system not only processes real-time data and dynamically adjusts the suction force and jet parameters, but also learns the best dust removal parameter combination for different types of rice through historical data. Through the Internet of Things module, the operator can remotely monitor the negative pressure, equipment status, energy consumption and other information of each section. Based on the negative pressure trend or the frequency of starting the vibrator 32, the system can predict the decline in filter cleanliness or equipment abnormalities in advance, send a blockage warning or maintenance prompt to the terminal, and change passive maintenance to active maintenance.
[0065] High dust removal efficiency and energy saving, precise operation: By dividing the dust removal area into three sections, front, middle and back, and independently controlling them, and the suction force gradually decreasing from the feed end to the discharge end, this design perfectly matches the objective law that the dust content gradually decreases during the conveying process. In the front end, high suction force is used to handle high-concentration dust, and in the back end, weak suction force is used for fine polishing, avoiding the drawbacks of traditional single-point dust removal, such as insufficient suction force in the front section and excessive suction force in the back section.
[0066] Unique "blow-suction coordination" mechanism to effectively prevent mesh blockage: The bottom blow assembly is linked with the top suction assembly. When detecting abnormal negative pressure in a certain section, the system not only increases the suction force, but also simultaneously increases the air blowing below that area. This coordinated mode of "blowing up from the bottom of the rice layer" and "sucking away from the top" can effectively break the adhesion and accumulation of dust in the mesh, significantly reducing the problem of mesh blockage caused by relying solely on negative pressure suction. Especially for lighter bran powder, the coordinated dust removal effect is more significant.
[0067] The embodiments of the present application are described above, but the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments described above, which are only illustrative and not limiting. Those skilled in the art can make many forms under the inspiration of the present embodiments, which are all within the protection of the present embodiments.
