Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of vegetable conveying technology, specifically to a vegetable conveyor and its method. Background Technology

[0002] Vegetables are annual or biennial herbaceous plants belonging to the Brassicaceae family and the Brassica genus. They are a variant of Chinese cabbage and are a unique variety formed through long-term domestication. After harvesting, vegetables need to be placed on conveyor equipment for processing to facilitate subsequent packaging and sales.

[0003] CN221979979U discloses a vegetable processing conveying device, including a conveyor frame. Two sets of side plates are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the conveyor frame. A conveying mechanism is arranged between the four sets of side plates. Four sets of support plates are fixedly installed on the top of the conveyor frame between the side plates. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the side of every two sets of support plates. A cam is installed on the outside of each rotating shaft. A linkage mechanism is provided between the cam and the conveying mechanism. A baffle is fixedly installed on one side of every two sets of support plates. An inclined plate is fixed to the top of the four sets of support plates. A water collecting plate is installed at the bottom of the inclined plate. Multiple nozzles are evenly installed at the bottom of the water collecting plate. A water inlet pipe is slidably connected to the top of the support plates. One end of the water inlet pipe is equipped with a limit mechanism. This application eliminates the need for manual shaking of soil off the surface of vegetables, separating soil and impurities from the vegetables, thus improving the cleaning effect of vegetables during conveying and facilitating subsequent processing.

[0004] In existing technology, vegetables are conveyed by a conveyor frame, and a cam is used to vibrate the vegetables to shake off the soil. At the same time, a spray nozzle is used to wash the vegetables. However, it has been found that there is a lot of soil at the roots of the vegetables, and most of the soil is hidden on the inner wall of the roots. The soil is also sticky. Simply shaking the vegetables may not be able to effectively separate the impurities. Furthermore, when the spray nozzle is used to wash the surface of the vegetables, the water sprayed from the nozzle cannot reach the inside of the vegetables. It can only wash the surface of the vegetables, resulting in soil and impurities remaining inside the vegetables. Therefore, the vegetables do not meet food-grade cleaning standards, and the vegetables need to be further processed after being discharged, which reduces the efficiency of vegetable processing.

[0014] A method for transporting vegetables includes the following steps: S1, the harvested vegetables are placed on the conveyor belt in the conveying mechanism and transported to the cutting blade. The cutting blade is used to cut the roots and stems of the vegetables, and then they fall into the mud removal mechanism below for mud removal. S2, after the vegetables arrive at the mud removal mechanism, they are conveyed to the mud removal bin by the conveyor belt mechanism.

[0018] (4) The present invention cuts the vegetables with a cutting blade in the conveying mechanism to expose the soil at the roots of the vegetables, making it easier to rinse and clean them later.

[0022] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-9 As shown, this application provides a vegetable conveyor, including a conveying mechanism 1, and further comprising: The sludge removal mechanism 2 is located below the conveying mechanism 1; The cleaning mechanism 3 is located below the mud removal mechanism 2; The conveying mechanism 1 includes a conveying plate 11 and a guide rail compartment 17; a conveyor belt 111 is rotatably mounted on the side wall of the conveying plate 11; a flexible plate 12 is fixedly connected to the conveyor belt 111; multiple sets of flexible plates 12 are arranged equidistantly on the conveyor belt 111; a cutting blade 15 and a sliding chamber 16 are mounted on the side wall of the conveying plate 11; the cutting blade 15 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the conveying plate 11; the sliding chamber 16 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the conveying plate 11; the sliding chamber 16 is located below the cutting blade 15; a side plate 161 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding chamber 16. A rotating shaft 163 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the side plate 161; a blade 162 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 163; the blade 162 is located inside the slide chamber 16; a feeding guide rail 171 is rotatably connected inside the guide rail chamber 17; multiple sets of feeding guide rails 171 are provided; a connecting pulley 173 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the guide rail chamber 17; a connecting belt 164 is sleeved on the connecting pulley 173; one end of the connecting belt 164 away from the connecting pulley 173 is sleeved with the rotating shaft 163; inclined plates 172 are fixedly connected to both side walls of the guide rail chamber 17. During operation, the harvested vegetables are first placed on the conveyor belt 111 on the conveyor plate 11, between the two sets of flexible plates 12. Then, the conveyor belt 111 is driven to move the vegetables to the cutting blade 15. The cutting blade 15 cuts the roots and stems of the vegetables, which fall into the lower slide hopper 16 and slide to the blade 162. Due to inertia, the blade 162 rotates, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 163 to rotate. When the rotating shaft 163 rotates, it will pass through the connecting belt... The belt 164 drives the connecting pulley 173 to rotate, which in turn drives one of the sets of feeding guide rails 171 to rotate. When the vegetables are transported to the end by the conveyor belt 111 and fall into the guide rail bin 17, the rotation of the feeding guide rail 171 can drive the vegetables to slide towards the mud removal mechanism 2, preventing the vegetables from getting stuck in the guide rail bin 17. At the same time, the two sets of inclined plates 172 in the guide rail bin 17 can guide the vegetables, keeping them in the middle of the guide rail bin 17, so that they will not deviate during the feeding process and will fall directly into the mud removal mechanism 2.

[0024] like Figures 3-5 As shown, a U-shaped plate 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the conveyor plate 11; a pressure block 131 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the U-shaped plate 13; a side chamber 14 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the conveyor plate 11; a threaded column 141 is rotatably connected inside the side chamber 14; a movable plate 1411 is threadedly connected to the threaded column 141; the movable plate 1411 is located above the side chamber 14; a limiting column 142 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the side chamber 14; the limiting column 142 is located on both sides of the threaded column 141; the movable plate 1411 is disposed through the limiting column 142; a hexagonal turntable 18 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the side chamber 14; the output end of the hexagonal turntable 18 is fixedly connected to the input end of the threaded column 141. During operation, after the vegetables are placed on the conveyor belt 111, they are carried to the cutting blade 15 as the conveyor belt moves. Upon reaching the cutting blade 15, the vegetables move to the area below the U-shaped plate 13. As the conveyor belt moves, the flexible plate 12 is deformed by the pressure block 131. Due to the direction of movement, the deformation of the flexible plate 12 compresses the vegetables, thus securing them upon contact with the cutting blade 15. This prevents the vegetables from moving during cutting. Simultaneously, it drives the hexagonal turntable 18 on the side compartment 14 to rotate, which in turn rotates the internal threaded column 141, causing the moving plate... 1411 moves to a suitable position. When the vegetables are placed, the end to be cut abuts against the moving plate 1411. The length to be cut is determined according to the distance between the moving plate 1411 and the conveyor belt 111. Through the setting of the conveyor mechanism 1, the cutting work can be carried out as soon as the vegetables are picked. At the same time, through the setting of the moving plate 1411, the cutting distance can be adjusted. And through the cooperation of the soft plate 12 and the pressure block 131, the vegetables can be stabilized during cutting to prevent them from moving. At the same time, through the setting of the sliding chamber 16 and the guide rail chamber 17, the cut vegetables can be evenly transported to the mud removal mechanism 2 for mud removal.

[0025] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the sludge removal mechanism 2 includes a sludge removal chamber 21 and a conveyor belt mechanism 27; the conveyor belt mechanism 27 is positioned above the sludge removal chamber 21; a spray pipe 251 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sludge removal chamber 21; the spray pipe 251 is located above the conveyor belt mechanism 27; a filter plate 211, a guide plate 215, and a guide plate 216 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sludge removal chamber 21; the guide plate 215 and the guide plate 216 are located below the filter plate 211; a water supply pipe 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sludge removal chamber 21; the end of the water supply pipe 22 away from the sludge removal chamber 21 is connected to the cleaning mechanism 3. During operation, the conveyor belt mechanism 27 is located below the guide rail bin 17. Vegetables pass through the guide rail bin 17 to reach the conveyor belt mechanism 27, and are then transported to the middle of the mud removal bin 21. At the same time, the spray pipe 251 at the top of the mud removal bin 21 is turned on to effectively wash the vegetables. Since the roots are cut, it is easier to wash out the mud from the vegetables during washing. The mud can be filtered by the filter plate 211 below. The filtered water can also be transported to the washing mechanism 3 through the water pipe 22 for secondary washing.

[0026] like Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, a cleaning chamber 212 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sludge removal chamber 21; a bidirectional lead screw 213 is rotatably connected inside the cleaning chamber 212; a cleaning plate 214 is threadedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw 213; the cleaning chamber 212 is connected to the sludge removal chamber 21; the cleaning plate 214 abuts against the filter plate 211; an inertia shaft 217 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the sludge removal chamber 21; an inertia plate 218 is fixedly connected to the inertia shaft 217; multiple sets of inertia plates 218 are provided; the inertia plates 218 are located below the guide plate 216. The cleaning chamber 212 is located above the water supply pipe 22; a transmission pulley 24 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the cleaning chamber 212; the output end of the transmission pulley 24 is fixedly connected to the input end of the bidirectional screw 213; a transmission pulley 26 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the sludge removal chamber 21; the input end of the transmission pulley 26 is fixedly connected to the output end of the inertia shaft 217; a transmission belt 241 is sleeved on the transmission pulley 24 and the transmission pulley 26; a waste port 23 is opened on the side wall of the sludge removal chamber 21; the waste port 23 is arranged parallel to the filter plate 211; During operation, the washed mud and water fall onto the filter plate 211 inside the mud removal chamber 21 via conveyor belt mechanism 27. Conveyor belt mechanism 27 is perforated to facilitate water flow. After being filtered by the filter plate 211, the mud and water reach the guide plate 215 and then flow onto the guide plate 216. The guide plate 216 has a larger inclination angle, allowing the filtered water to flow into the inertia plate 218. The inertia of the water flow causes the inertia plate 218 to rotate, which in turn drives the inertia shaft 217 to rotate. As the inertia shaft 217 rotates... The external trigger pulley 241 drives the transmission pulley 24 to rotate, thereby driving the double cleaning chamber 212 to discharge into the waste outlet 23. The mud removal chamber 21 can wash away the mud inside the vegetables, and after cutting, the mud is more easily visible on the surface of the vegetables. At the same time, the filter plate 211 can filter the mud water that is washed down, and the mud water can be transported to the washing mechanism 3 for reuse through the conveying pipe. At the same time, the cleaning plate 214 and the inertia plate 218 can drive the cleaning plate 214 to clean the mud under the flow of water.

[0027] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the cleaning mechanism 3 includes a cleaning chamber 31 and a second conveyor belt mechanism 32; a pressure roller 33 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the cleaning chamber 31; the pressure roller 33 is located in the middle of the cleaning chamber 31; a baffle 321 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the second conveyor belt mechanism 32; the baffle 321 is located below the first conveyor belt mechanism 27; a bubble generating mechanism 35 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning chamber 31; the end of the water supply pipe 22 away from the mud removal chamber 21 is fixedly connected to the cleaning chamber 31; a cleaning nozzle 34 is provided on the top of the cleaning chamber 31. During operation, filtered water flows from the water pipe 22 into the washing chamber 31. After being rinsed, the vegetables are transported by conveyor belt mechanism 27 to the end of the mud removal mechanism 2 and fall onto conveyor belt mechanism 32. The end of conveyor belt mechanism 27 is arc-shaped, causing the vegetables to flip as they fall, turning them so the other side faces upwards for easier subsequent washing. Once on conveyor belt mechanism 32, the vegetables are conveyed to the pressure roller 33. Due to the continuous rotation of the pressure roller 33, the vegetables are pressed to the bottom of the washing chamber 31. The bubbling mechanism 35 at the bottom of the washing chamber 31 then... After washing, the vegetables are transported by the second conveyor belt mechanism 32 to the area below the washing nozzle 34. At this point, the second conveyor belt mechanism 32 stops, allowing the vegetables to be effectively washed under the washing nozzle 34. Finally, the conveyor belt mechanism 32 is restarted to transport the vegetables out. Through the setting of the washing chamber 31, the vegetables can be washed a second time. At the same time, the pressure roller 33 presses the vegetables close to the bubble generating mechanism 35 for deep washing, washing away the residual dirt on the vegetables and preventing them from floating on the water surface without being effectively cleaned. Finally, clean water is sprayed out through the washing nozzle 34 to wash the vegetables again and prevent dirt from remaining on the surface of the vegetables.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, a water injection chamber 25 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sludge removal chamber 21; the water injection chamber 25 is connected to the spray pipe 251. During operation, clean water is injected through the water inlet 25 and then sprayed out through the spray pipe 251 to clean the vegetables.

[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, a water pump 221 is fixedly connected to the water pipe 22; both the first conveyor belt mechanism 27 and the second conveyor belt mechanism 32 are provided with flexible plates 12; During operation, the drainage pump can draw water from the water pipe 22 into the washing chamber 31 for secondary cleaning of the vegetables. The soft plate 12 can move the vegetables and prevent them from slipping on the smooth conveyor belt.

[0030] like Figure 6 As shown, a conveyor motor 19 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the conveyor plate 11; the conveyor belt 111 is driven by the conveyor motor 19; a motor 28 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the first conveyor belt mechanism 27; the first transmission belt mechanism is driven by the first motor 28; a motor 36 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the second conveyor belt mechanism 32; the second transmission belt mechanism is driven by the second motor 36; a motor 331 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the cleaning chamber 31; and the pressure roller 33 is driven by the third motor 331.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-9As shown, this application provides a vegetable conveying method, including the following steps: S1, the harvested vegetables are placed on the conveyor belt 111 in the conveyor mechanism 1 and conveyed to the cutting blade 15 via the conveyor belt 111. The cutting blade 15 is used to cut the roots and stems of the vegetables, and then they fall into the mud removal mechanism 2 below for mud removal. S2, after the vegetables arrive at the mud removal mechanism 2, they are transported to the mud removal bin 21 by the conveyor belt mechanism 27. The vegetables are sprayed with high pressure by the spray pipe 251 above to remove the mud from the vegetables. Then the vegetables are transported to the washing mechanism 3 for washing. S3, when the conveyor belt mechanism 27 transports the vegetables to the conveyor belt mechanism 32 in the washing mechanism 3, the vegetables will turn over during the fall to facilitate the washing of the other side of the vegetables. Then, when the vegetables are transported to the middle of the washing chamber 31, the bubble generating mechanism 35 and the pressure roller 33 are used to perform deep cleaning of the vegetables. Then, the washing nozzle 34 performs the final cleaning work, and then the vegetables are conveyed out of the washing mechanism 3 for packaging. S4, the cleaning water in the cleaning chamber 31 is filtered from the mud removal chamber 21 and is filtered by the filter plate 211, which saves water resources. During operation, the harvested vegetables are placed on the conveyor belt 111 in the conveyor mechanism 1. The vegetables are then conveyed to the cutting blade 15, where the roots and stems are cut. They then fall into the mud removal mechanism 2 below for mud removal. After reaching the mud removal mechanism 2, the vegetables are conveyed via the conveyor belt 27 to the mud removal bin 21, where they are sprayed with high pressure by the spray pipe 251 above to remove the mud. The vegetables are then conveyed to the washing mechanism 3 for washing. When vegetables are transported to the conveyor belt mechanism 32 in the washing mechanism 3, they will turn over during the fall to facilitate the washing of the other side. Then, when the vegetables are transported to the middle of the washing chamber 31, the bubble generating mechanism 35 and the pressure roller 33 are used for deep washing of the vegetables. Then, the washing nozzle 34 performs the final washing work. Finally, the vegetables are transported out of the washing mechanism 3 for packaging. The washing water in the washing chamber 31 is filtered from the mud removal chamber 21 and filtered by the filter plate 211, which saves water resources.

[0032] The working principle of this invention is as follows: First, the harvested vegetables are placed on the conveyor belt 111 on the conveyor plate 11, and positioned between the two sets of flexible plates 12. Then, the conveyor belt 111 is driven to move the vegetables to the cutting blade 15. The cutting blade 15 cuts off the root of the vegetables, and the cut root falls into the lower slide hopper 16. The cut root then slides with the slide hopper 16 to the blade plate 162, and due to inertia, the blade plate 162 rotates, thereby causing the rotating shaft 163 to rotate. When the rotating shaft 163 rotates, it will... The connecting belt 164 drives the connecting pulley 173 to rotate, which in turn drives one set of feeding guide rails 171 to rotate. When the vegetables are transported to the end of the conveyor belt 111 and fall into the guide rail bin 17, the rotation of the feeding guide rail 171 drives the vegetables to slide towards the mud removal mechanism 2, preventing the vegetables from getting stuck in the guide rail bin 17. At the same time, the two sets of inclined plates 172 in the guide rail bin 17 can guide the vegetables, keeping them in the middle of the guide rail bin 17, so that they will not deviate during the feeding process and will fall directly into the mud removal mechanism 2.

[0033] The vegetables are transported from the guide rail compartment 17 to the conveyor belt mechanism 27, and then conveyed to the middle of the mud removal compartment 21. At the same time, the spray pipe 251 on the top of the mud removal compartment 21 is turned on to effectively wash the vegetables. Since the roots are cut, it is easier to wash out the mud from the vegetables during the washing process. The mud can be filtered by the filter plate 211 below. The filtered water can also be transported to the washing mechanism 3 through the water pipe 22 for secondary washing.

[0034] After being rinsed, the vegetables are conveyed by conveyor belt mechanism 27 to the end of the mud removal mechanism 2 and fall onto conveyor belt mechanism 32. The end of conveyor belt mechanism 27 is arc-shaped, causing the vegetables to flip over during the fall, turning them so the other side faces upwards for easier washing. Once on conveyor belt mechanism 32, the vegetables are conveyed to pressure roller 33. Due to the continuous rotation of pressure roller 33, the vegetables are pressed to the bottom of the washing chamber 31. The bubbling mechanism 35 at the bottom of the washing chamber 31 then cleans the vegetables. After cleaning... The vegetables are transported by the second conveyor belt mechanism 32 to the area below the cleaning nozzle 34. The conveyor belt mechanism 32 is then stopped, allowing the vegetables to be effectively cleaned under the cleaning nozzle 34. Finally, the conveyor belt mechanism is restarted to transport the vegetables out. The cleaning chamber 31 allows for a second cleaning of the vegetables. At the same time, the pressure roller 33 presses the vegetables close to the bubble generating mechanism 35 for deep cleaning, washing away any residual dirt and preventing the vegetables from floating on the water surface without being effectively cleaned. Finally, clean water is sprayed out through the cleaning nozzle 34 to wash the vegetables again, preventing any dirt residue from remaining on the surface.

[0035] The foregoing has provided a detailed description of one embodiment of the present invention, but this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. All equivalent variations and modifications made within the scope of the claims of this invention should still fall within the patent coverage of this invention.
