Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of resource recycling technology, and in particular to an intelligent sorting and processing device for renewable resources. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, conventional sorting processes for recyclable materials include weighing, screening, magnetic separation, air separation, color sorting, and manual sorting. Because these processes require extensive conveying equipment, the entire system occupies a huge area, often thousands of square meters, making it only suitable for large sorting centers. In communities, small recycling stations, and other locations with height or weight restrictions, or where large vehicles and machinery cannot access, there is a lack of sorting equipment that can simultaneously achieve automation and miniaturization (although automated sorting solutions based on vision recognition and robotic arms exist, their functions are limited, only replacing one step and unable to integrate all necessary processes within a compact space). Therefore, these locations still rely primarily on manual sorting, which, while flexible, suffers from low automation and high labor costs. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new type of equipment that is highly integrated, occupies a small area, can adapt to diverse urban spaces, and achieves fully automated sorting throughout the entire process.

[0044] The technical solution of this application will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0045] Please see Figures 1 to 2 As shown, in one embodiment, this application provides an intelligent sorting and processing device 1 for recycled resources. The intelligent sorting and processing device 1 specifically includes an equipment cabinet 10, a weighing and screening device 20, a horizontal conveying and screening device 30, and a vision recognition sorting robotic arm 40. The surface of the equipment cabinet 10 is respectively provided with a control panel 111, a feeding port 112, a first sorting outlet 113, a second sorting outlet 114, a third sorting outlet 115, and at least two fourth sorting outlets 116. The weighing and screening device 20 is built into the equipment cabinet 10. The weighing and screening device 20 is configured to receive recycled resource goods fed into the feeding port 112 and weigh and screen the recycled resource goods to sort recycled resource goods within a first weight range into the first sorting outlet 113 and recycled resource goods within a second weight range into the horizontal conveying and screening device 30. A horizontal conveying screening device 30 is built into the equipment cabinet 10. The horizontal conveying screening device 30 is configured to horizontally convey the recycled materials sorted by the weighing screening device 20 to the sorting area (not shown in the figure) of the vision recognition sorting robot arm 40. During the horizontal conveying of the recycled materials, it completes the air separation process to sort the light materials into the second sorting outlet 114, and the magnetic separation process to sort the ferromagnetic materials into the third sorting outlet 115. The vision recognition sorting robot arm 40 is built into the equipment cabinet 10 and is configured to sort different recycled materials in the sorting area into different fourth sorting outlets 116 based on visual recognition.
[0046] It should be noted that the intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1 for recycled resources in this application embodiment is mainly used in the sorting and processing of recycled resource goods. That is, users can put all recycled resource goods such as plastic bottles and aluminum cans into the delivery port 112 of the equipment cabinet 10 of this intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1, so as to realize the fully automated sorting and processing of these recycled resource goods through this intelligent delivery cabinet.
[0047] The aforementioned control panel 111 is mainly used to realize the overall control and interactive operation of this intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1, including but not limited to start control and stop control. Therefore, the control panel 111 may specifically include a controller, which can be electrically connected to at least the weighing and screening device 20, the horizontal conveying and screening device 30, and the vision recognition sorting robot arm 40, so that the controller can realize the coordinated work between the various components of the entire intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1.
[0048] The first weight range mentioned above is generally larger than the second weight range, so that the large recycled goods in the first weight range can be sorted into the first sorting outlet 113 by the weighing and screening device 20, while the small recycled goods in the second weight range can be sorted into the horizontal conveying and screening device 30 for subsequent sorting operations.
[0049] The aforementioned visual recognition sorting robotic arm 40 can specifically be a common type of visual recognition sorting robotic arm 40 used in the current logistics sorting industry. It consists of a robotic arm and visual recognition components such as a CCD camera mounted on the arm. During operation, the visual recognition components first identify the type and color of the recycled goods by taking a picture (i.e., completing the corresponding color sorting function). Then, a drive structure such as a servo motor drives the robotic arm to perform corresponding gripping, spatial transfer, and placement operations, thereby sorting different recycled goods in the sorting area into different fourth sorting exits 116. Generally, the sorting area of the visual recognition sorting robotic arm 40 is located at the end of the horizontal conveyor screening device 30, so that the corresponding visual recognition and screening function is completed during the subsequent transmission process of the recycled goods in the horizontal conveyor screening device 30.
[0050] In addition, to facilitate the storage and management of sorted recycled goods, a sorting and storage box (not shown) can be set below each sorting exit (including the first sorting exit 113, the second sorting exit 114, the third sorting exit 115 and the fourth sorting exit 116) to store the sorted recycled goods.
[0051] In this way, the intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1 for recycled resources in this embodiment of the application, through the above-mentioned structural configuration, not only realizes the connection and linkage between the weighing and screening device 20 and the visual recognition sorting robot arm 40 through the horizontal conveying function of the horizontal conveying and screening device 30, but also integrates air separation and magnetic separation functions in the transmission direction of the horizontal conveying and screening device 30, so that when the recycled resource goods sorted by the weighing and screening device 20 are horizontally conveyed to the visual recognition sorting robot arm 40 for visual recognition sorting (which can correspondingly complete the color sorting process), the corresponding air separation and magnetic separation processes can also be completed simultaneously. Thus, the intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1 of this application can highly integrate the weighing and screening device 20, the horizontal conveying and screening device 30, and the visual recognition sorting robotic arm 40 into a single cabinet through a compact and reasonable structural layout. This enables it to integrate weighing and screening, magnetic separation, air separation, color sorting and other functions in one stop, so as to achieve fully automated sorting. At the same time, it can also make its overall design highly integrated and miniaturized, and can be flexibly deployed and adapted to narrow spaces such as communities, underground garages, office buildings, exhibition halls, and subways, effectively breaking through the limitations of traditional sorting centers in terms of land area.
[0052] In some examples, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the equipment cabinet 10 includes a cabinet body 11 and an electric remote-controlled differential chassis 12. The cabinet body 11 is mounted on the upper surface of the electric remote-controlled differential chassis 12 to move autonomously in the horizontal direction following the electric remote-controlled differential chassis 12. Thus, through the above structural arrangement, the equipment cabinet 10 can be effectively moved autonomously in the horizontal direction, enabling this intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1 to have autonomous movement capabilities. Its overall size and weight are comparable to that of a regular passenger car, allowing for more flexible deployment and adaptation to narrow spaces such as communities, underground parking garages, office buildings, exhibition halls, and subways, effectively overcoming the limitations of traditional sorting centers in terms of land area and logistics.
[0053] It should be noted that the electric remote-controlled differential chassis 12 in this example may specifically include a chassis body 121 and multiple wheels 122 (preferably four pairs of wheels 122 as shown in the figure) respectively arranged on both sides of the chassis body 121. The chassis body 121 may be made of high-strength materials such as aluminum alloy, and each wheel 122 is a large off-road wheel, giving it a high load-bearing capacity to meet the weight requirements of the internal components of the equipment cabinet 10. Furthermore, the chassis body 121 may contain four independent reduction motors. By controlling the speed and direction of the four drive motors respectively, a speed difference can be created between the left and right drive wheels, thereby enabling the chassis body 121 to move flexibly forward, backward, and turn. In addition, the electric remote-controlled differential chassis 12 can also be remotely controlled, allowing it to move autonomously in the horizontal direction via remote control.
[0054] In some examples, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the equipment cabinet 10 includes a first surface, a second surface, a third surface, and a fourth surface arranged end-to-end. A control panel 111, a feeding port 112, and a first sorting outlet 113 are respectively disposed on the first surface, with the feeding port 112 and the first sorting outlet 113 spaced apart vertically. This structural arrangement allows for a reasonable layout of the control panel 111, feeding port 112, and first sorting outlet 113 on the equipment cabinet 10, facilitating user input of recyclable goods and control of the intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1 from the same side. Furthermore, a second sorting outlet 114 is disposed on the second surface, and a third sorting outlet 115 is disposed on the fourth surface, with the second and third sorting outlets facing each other and both adjacent to the first surface. This structural arrangement allows for the air separation mechanism 32 and the magnetic separation mechanism 33, mentioned later, to correspond to the front section of the horizontal conveying screening device 30, ensuring a compact structure for the intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1. Furthermore, at least two fourth sorting outlets 116 are respectively disposed on the second and fourth surfaces, with each pair of fourth sorting outlets 116 facing each other and adjacent to the third surface. In this way, the above structural arrangement facilitates visual recognition of the structural layout of the transmission end of the horizontal conveying screening device 30 corresponding to the sorting robot arm 40, thereby ensuring the compact structure of this intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1.
[0055] It should be noted that, in this example, the delivery port 112 is preferably located in the upper region of the first surface. In this example, the first sorting outlet 113 is preferably located in the lower region of the first surface. In this example, the second sorting outlet 114 is preferably located in the lower region of the second surface. In this example, the third sorting outlet 115 is preferably located in the lower region of the fourth surface. In this example, the fourth sorting outlet 116 is preferably located in the lower regions of both the third and fourth surfaces.
[0056] In some examples, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the weighing and screening device 20 includes an integrated weighing and screening drum screen 21, which comprises a segmented drum 211, a weighing mechanism 212, and a stepper motor 213. The circumferential sidewalls of the segmented drum 211 are sequentially provided with a closed section 2111, a feeding section 2112, and a screening section 2113 along the rotation direction. The feeding section 2112 has a feeding channel penetrating the circumferential sidewalls of the segmented drum 211, and the screening section 2113 has a screening channel penetrating the circumferential sidewalls of the segmented drum 211. The size of the feeding channel is larger than the size of the screening channel. The weighing mechanism 212 movably supports the segmented drum 211, and the stepper motor 213 is driven by the segmented drum 211 to drive the segmented drum 211 to rotate axially relative to the weighing mechanism 212. Thus, with the above structural configuration, when the stepper motor 213 drives the segmented roller 211 to rotate, causing the feeding channel of the feeding section 2112 to tilt upwards and align with the feeding port 112 of the equipment cabinet 10, it can receive the recycled resource goods fed into the feeding port 112 through the closed section 2111 (that is, after the recycled resource goods fed into the feeding port 112 enter the interior of the segmented roller 211 through the feeding section 2112, they will be received in the closed section 2111 of the segmented roller 211). The weighing mechanism 212 weighs and screens the recycled resource goods in the segmented roller 211. When the recycled resource goods in the segmented roller 211 are within the first weight range (generally large recycled resource goods), the stepper motor 213 drives the segmented roller 211 to rotate, causing the feeding channel of the feeding section 2112 to be set downwards, so that the large recycled resource goods can be sorted out through the feeding channel. When the recycled goods in the segmented roller 211 are within the second weight range (generally small recycled goods), the segmented roller 211 is driven to rotate by the stepper motor 213, so that the screening channel of the screening section 2113 is set downward, and the small recycled goods are sorted out through the screening channel.
[0057] In some examples, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, there are at least two weighing mechanisms 212. Each weighing mechanism 212 includes a weighing base with a built-in weighing sensor and a bushing seat on the weighing base. The two ends of the segmented roller 211 are respectively provided with roller shafts that cooperate with the bushing seats. A stepper motor 213 is connected to one of the roller shafts via a coupling. Thus, with the above structural arrangement, on the one hand, the rotational cooperation between the roller shafts at both ends of the segmented roller 211 and the corresponding bushing seats enables the segmented roller 211 to be movably supported on the weighing mechanisms 212 on both sides, allowing the segmented roller 211 to rotate axially relative to the weighing mechanisms 212 under the drive of the stepper motor 213. On the other hand, the weighing sensors in the weighing bases of each weighing mechanism 212 can sense the weight changes of the segmented roller 211, thereby enabling the weighing and screening of the recycled goods within the segmented roller 211, i.e., determining whether the recycled goods belong to a first weight range.
[0058] In some examples, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the feeding section 2112 is provided with a feeding port that penetrates the peripheral sidewall of the segmented roller 211 to form a feeding channel. Thus, through the above structural arrangement, the feeding port effectively forms a corresponding feeding channel in the feeding section 2112. Furthermore, the screening section 2113 is configured as a grid, with each grid cell penetrating the peripheral sidewall of the segmented roller 211 to form a screening channel. Thus, through the above structural arrangement, the grid effectively forms a corresponding screening channel in the screening section 2113.
[0059] It should be noted that in this example, the opening area of each grid cell should be smaller than the opening area of the feeding port to ensure that the size of the feeding channel is larger than the size of each screening channel.
[0060] In some examples, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the weighing and screening device 20 also includes a flipping and sorting mechanism 22. The flipping and sorting mechanism 22 includes a material receiving trough 221 and a flipping power structure 222 for driving the material receiving trough 221 to flip in both directions. The material receiving trough 221 is located directly below the integrated screening and weighing drum screen 21. The material receiving trough 221 is provided with a first guide side wall 2211 and a second guide side wall 2212. The first guide side wall 2211 is configured to connect to the first sorting outlet 113 when the material receiving trough 221 flips in the first direction under the drive of the flipping power structure 222. The second guide side wall 2212 is configured to connect to the transmission front section of the horizontal conveying and screening device 30 when the material receiving trough 221 flips in the second direction under the drive of the flipping power structure 222. Thus, with the above structural configuration, when the integrated screening and weighing drum screen 21 drives the segmented drum 211 to rotate via the stepper motor 213, causing the feeding channel of the feeding section 2112 to face downwards, and the large recycled goods are sorted out through the feeding channel, the large recycled goods will first fall into the receiving trough 221 below. At this time, the receiving trough 221 can be flipped in the first direction under the drive of the flipping power structure 222, so that the first guiding side wall 2211 can connect with the first sorting outlet 113, so that the large recycled goods in the receiving trough 221 can be sorted into the first sorting outlet 113. When the integrated screening and weighing drum screen 21 drives the segmented drum 211 to rotate via the stepper motor 213, so that the screening channel of the screening section 2113 is set downwards, and the small recycled materials are sorted out through the screening channel, the small recycled materials will first fall into the receiving trough 221 below. At this time, the receiving trough 221 can be flipped in the second direction under the drive of the flipping power structure 222, so that the second guide side wall 2212 can connect with the front section of the horizontal conveying screening device 30, so as to sort the small recycled materials in the receiving trough 221 to the front section of the horizontal conveying screening device 30.
[0061] It should be noted that the first direction and the second direction in this example are opposite directions. In order to ensure that the first guide sidewall 2211 can better align with the first sorting outlet 113 when the material receiving trough 221 is flipped in the first direction under the drive of the flipping power structure 222, a guide plate 223 is also provided between the lower side of the material receiving trough 221 corresponding to the first guide sidewall 2211 and the first sorting outlet 113, so that the first guide sidewall 2211 can be well aligned with the first sorting outlet 113 when the material receiving trough 221 is flipped to the corresponding position through the inclined surface of the guide plate 223.
[0062] In some examples, such as Figure 3As shown, the horizontal conveying and screening device 30 includes a first horizontal conveyor belt 31, an air separation mechanism 32, and a magnetic separation mechanism 33. The first horizontal conveyor belt 31 extends from below the weighing and screening device 20 to the sorting area of the vision recognition sorting robot arm 40. The air separation mechanism 32 is located adjacent to the front section of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31 and is configured to sort light materials from the recycled goods on the first horizontal conveyor belt 31 into the second sorting outlet 114. The magnetic separation mechanism 33 is located adjacent to the front section of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31 and is configured to sort ferromagnetic materials from the recycled goods on the first horizontal conveyor belt 31 into the third sorting outlet 115. Thus, through the above structural arrangement, on the one hand, the horizontal conveying function of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31 enables the connection and linkage between the weighing and screening device 20 and the vision recognition sorting robot arm 40. On the other hand, by using the air separation mechanism 32 and the magnetic separation mechanism 33 respectively set at the front of the transmission of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31, the first horizontal conveyor belt 31 can simultaneously complete the corresponding air separation and magnetic separation processes while horizontally conveying the recycled resource goods sorted by the weighing and screening device 20 to the visual recognition and sorting robot arm 40 for visual recognition and sorting. This achieves a high degree of integration of the corresponding air separation and magnetic separation functions in the transmission direction of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31, thereby further improving the integration of this intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1 and reducing its floor space.
[0063] It should be noted that the air separation mechanism 32 in this example mainly adopts a conventional fan structure to sort light materials from the recycled goods on the first horizontal conveyor belt 31 into the second sorting outlet 114 by air blowing. The magnetic separation mechanism 33 in this example mainly adopts a conventional magnetic conveying structure to sort ferromagnetic materials from the recycled goods on the first horizontal conveyor belt 31 into the third sorting outlet 115 by magnetic attraction. Generally speaking, both the air separation mechanism 32 and the magnetic separation mechanism 33 are set at the front end of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31 so that the corresponding air separation and magnetic separation functions are completed during the transmission process of the corresponding recycled goods at the front end of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31.
[0064] In some examples, such as Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, the air separation mechanism 32 includes a blower 321 and an air guide channel 322. The blower 321 and the air guide channel 322 are respectively located above the front section of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31. The air guide channel 322 is configured to guide the air blown by the blower 321 in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31, blowing the light materials in the recycled goods on the front section of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31 into the second sorting outlet 114. Thus, with the above structural configuration, after the weighing and screening device 20 sorts the small recycled goods within the second weight range to the front section of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31, the air guide channel 322 can guide the air blown by the blower 321 in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31, blowing the light materials in the recycled goods on the front section of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31 into the second sorting outlet 114, thereby completing the corresponding air separation process.
[0065] It should be noted that, through the air guiding design of the air guiding channel 322, the blower 321 can be arranged side by side with the magnetic separation mechanism 33 above the transmission front section of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31, so as to further realize the structural design of the horizontal conveying screening device 30 that highly integrates horizontal conveying function, air separation function and magnetic separation function.
[0066] In some examples, such as Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the magnetic separation mechanism 33 includes a second horizontal conveyor belt 331 and a magnet 332. The second horizontal conveyor belt 331 is located above the front section of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31, and the transmission direction of the second horizontal conveyor belt 331 is perpendicular to the transmission direction of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31. The magnet 332 is disposed on the side of the second horizontal conveyor belt 331 away from the first horizontal conveyor belt, and the second horizontal conveyor belt 331 is divided into magnetic segments 3311 and non-magnetic segments 3312 along its transmission direction. The magnetic segments 3311 are at least located at the front section of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31, and the non-magnetic segments 3312 are located at the third sorting outlet 115. Thus, with the above structural configuration, when the weighing and screening device 20 sorts the small recycled goods within the second weight range to the front section of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31, the magnetic section 3311 of the second horizontal conveyor belt 331 can attract the ferromagnetic material in the recycled goods on the front section of the first horizontal conveyor belt 31 through the magnetic attraction of the magnet 332, and make it move along the transmission direction of the second horizontal conveyor belt 331. When it arrives at the non-magnetic section 3312 of the second horizontal conveyor belt 331 (i.e., the part without the magnet 332), it will fall to the third sorting outlet 115 for sorting due to the lack of magnetic attraction, thereby completing the corresponding magnetic separation process.
[0067] In some examples, such as Figure 1As shown, the intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1 also includes a DC power supply module and an AC power supply module. The DC power supply module is built into the equipment cabinet 10 and is configured to charge the lead-acid battery via photovoltaic charging and / or mains charging, and then supply DC power to all electrical modules within the intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1 through the lead-acid battery. The AC power supply module is also built into the equipment cabinet 10 and is configured to, after being connected to external mains power, convert the AC power to DC power via an inverter, so as to directly supply DC power to all electrical modules within the intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1, or to charge the lead-acid battery via DC power. Thus, through the above structural configuration, the intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1 can have a relatively flexible power supply method; that is, it can be used with mains power or, after being charged by photovoltaic or mains power, can be used with battery power, to better meet the power supply needs of different usage scenarios.
[0068] It should be noted that the intelligent sorting and processing equipment 1 in this example also provides a universal electric vehicle charging interface, so that when it is charged by mains power, it can be charged by either commercially available new energy vehicle charging piles or by a household portable charging gun.
