Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of food processing machinery and automation equipment, and specifically relates to a shrimp processing device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, in shrimp processing production lines, the head removal process still generally relies on mechanical blocks for limiting or fixed-position cutting, lacking the ability to perceive and respond to individual differences in shrimp bodies. Due to the high randomness of shrimp body length, posture and orientation, traditional equipment has difficulty accurately locating the connection between the shrimp head and body, often resulting in off-center cutting, shrimp head residue or damage to shrimp meat, affecting subsequent shelling efficiency and product quality.

[0003] Some solutions attempt to incorporate photoelectric sensors or simple image detection, but due to limitations in processing speed and algorithm accuracy, they cannot achieve real-time orientation determination and dynamic stopping control under high-frequency conditions. Furthermore, the clamping mechanisms are mostly rigid, fixed structures that cannot adaptively adjust the clamping angle based on whether the shrimp's head is facing forward or backward, easily leading to clamping failure or shrimp slippage.

[0004] With the maturity of embedded vision modules such as K230, edge vision systems with low power consumption, high computing power, and millisecond-level inference capabilities can be deployed in industrial sites. However, how to efficiently convert visual recognition results into precise mechanical control commands and realize a closed-loop process of "recognition - positioning - stopping the belt - adaptive clamping - transfer - head cutting" remains a technical challenge that the industry urgently needs to overcome.

It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is for the purpose of helping to understand this invention, but does not constitute a limitation of this invention.

[0023] like Figure 1-10 As shown, a shrimp processing device includes, Mounting bracket 5, The conveying mechanism, movably mounted on the mounting frame 5, specifically includes: a vibrating hopper 9 movably mounted on the mounting frame 5, with hopper comb teeth 11 at its end; and a conveying roller 12 rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 5, with its circumference located near the vibrating hopper 9, and having multiple conveying roller comb teeth 6 on its circumference; the conveying roller comb teeth 6 extend radially along the conveying roller 12, and are close to and offset from the hopper comb teeth 11; the multiple conveying roller comb teeth 6 and the limiting disc on the conveying roller 12 divide the conveying roller 12 into several storage areas P, with one shrimp placed in each storage area P; The conveyor belt 3 is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 5 and is located below the other side of the circumference of the conveyor roller 12, so that the shrimp on the conveyor roller 12 fall onto the conveyor belt 3 after the conveyor roller 12 rotates; specifically as follows... Figure 1 As shown, a conveyor belt motor 2 is installed on the mounting frame 5. The free end of the conveyor belt motor 2 is fixed to the end of the shaft where the conveyor belt 3 is located, so as to drive the conveyor belt motor 2. The free end of the conveyor belt motor 2 starts to rotate, thereby driving the shaft where the conveyor belt is located to rotate, and then driving the conveyor belt 3 to move, ultimately causing the conveyor belt 3 to transport shrimp. A shrimp head transfer mechanism is mounted on the mounting frame 5, with one end located near the conveying mechanism. The shrimp head transfer mechanism includes... The gripping assembly, movably mounted on the mounting frame 5 and located near the upper end of the conveyor belt 3, specifically includes: a fixed plate 10 having a length direction Q and a width direction H, mounted on the mounting frame 5, with its width direction H aligned with the vertical direction; a sliding plate 40, which slides along the length direction Q on the vertical surface of the fixed plate 10 via a drive module 2, specifically including: a synchronous belt 19 rotatably mounted on the vertical surface of the fixed plate 10, arranged along the length direction Q; and a synchronous belt motor 4, with its fixed end mounted on the fixed plate 10 and its free end driving the synchronous belt 19 to rotate along the length direction Q; the fixed plate 1... A slide rail 39 is provided on the vertical surface of the 0, and the slide rail 39 extends horizontally along the length direction Q. The slide plate 40 is slidably mounted on the slide rail 39. The slide plate 40 is mounted on the synchronous belt 19 through a connector, and is used to drive the synchronous belt 19 to rotate by the synchronous belt motor 4 so that the slide plate 40 slides on the slide rail 39. The first lifting module is raised and lowered in the vertical direction. Specifically, the first lifting module includes a lead screw 23, which is rotatably mounted on the slide plate 40 through a connecting plate, and the lead screw 23 is set in the vertical direction. A lead screw motor 20 is installed above the connecting plate, and the free end of the lead screw motor 20 is vertically downward and fixed to the end of the lead screw 23. The fixed end of the horizontal servo motor 24 is installed below the first lifting module through a connector 1, and its free end rotates horizontally along the vertical plane of the fixed plate 10. Specifically, the fixed end of the horizontal servo motor 24 is threadedly installed below the lead screw 23 through a connector 2; the free end of the horizontal servo motor 24 is vertically downward and connected to the fixed end of the opening and closing servo motor 21 through a connector 3. The opening / closing servo 21 has its fixed end fixedly mounted on the free end of the horizontal servo 24. A gripper 26 is connected to the free end of the servo 21, and the gripping direction of the gripper 26 matches the vertical direction. Specifically, a gear 25 is rotatably sleeved on the free end of the opening / closing servo 21. The gear 25 is located on one side of the connecting member three. A connecting arm 251 is located on the circumferential surface of the gear 25. A connecting arm 261 is hinged to the side wall of the connecting member three. Both connecting arms 251 and 261 are... Located on the same side wall of connector three, and with connecting arm one 251 located above connecting arm two 261, and both connecting arm one 251 and connecting arm two 261 are hinged with gripper arm 262, so that connecting arm one 251, connecting arm two 261 and gripper arm 262 form a three-bar linkage mechanism. Gear two is also rotatably connected to the side wall of connector three. Gear two meshes with gear one 25. Gear two has the same structure as connecting arm one 251 and connecting arm two 261. The shrimp placement plate 35 is movably mounted on the mounting frame 5 via a drive module 1 and is located near the gripping component. The gripping component grips the shrimp on the conveyor belt and places them onto the shrimp placement plate 35. Specifically, the drive module 1 includes an electromagnetic push rod 37, the fixed end of which is fixedly mounted on the mounting frame 5 via a connector 4; and a connecting rod 36, one end of which is hinged to the free end of the electromagnetic push rod 37, and the other end of which is hinged to the shrimp placement plate 35. This allows the shrimp placement plate 35 to flip downwards from a horizontal state, creating an opening through which the headless shrimp fall to the next process; or it can flip upwards to a horizontal state to seal the opening, and the head removal operation is completed on the shrimp placement plate 35 in a horizontal state. In addition, the mounting bracket 5 is equipped with an electromagnetic push rod 38 and a six-bar linkage 33. The free end of the electromagnetic push rod 38 is connected to the joint of the six-bar linkage 33. One end of the six-bar linkage 33 is connected to a push plate, which is located on one side of the shrimp plate 35.

[0024] A shrimp head removal mechanism is installed on the mounting frame 5 and located near the shrimp transfer mechanism. It is used to remove the heads of shrimp transferred from the conveying mechanism to the shrimp head removal mechanism via the shrimp transfer mechanism. Specifically, the shrimp head removal mechanism includes a cutter 32 and a second lifting module, located above the shrimp placement plate 35. The cutter 32 is movably mounted on the mounting frame via the second lifting module. The cutter 32 moves vertically downwards until it cuts off the shrimp on the shrimp placement plate 5. More specifically, the cutter 32 is movably mounted on the mounting frame 5 via the second lifting module. The second lifting module includes: a linear guide rail 34, which is fixedly mounted on the mounting frame 5 in a vertical direction; a sliding plate 28, which is movably sleeved on the linear guide rail 34; a cam motor 30, whose fixed end is fixedly mounted on the mounting frame 5 through a connector 3; a cam 27, which is fixedly sleeved on the free end of the cam motor 30; a cam follower 31 that cooperates with the cam 27 is installed on the top of the sliding plate 28; and a spring 29, which is sleeved on the linear guide rail 34, with one top end connected to the sliding plate 28 and one bottom end fixed to the fixed end of the linear guide rail 34.

[0025] The main processes of this shrimp head transfer facility are as follows: When the shrimp is transported by conveyor belt 3 to the visual detection area (the area that the K230 visual recognition board below can recognize for the grippers), the K230 visual recognition board 1 located directly above the conveyor belt 3 acquires a top-down view image of the shrimp in real time. The system analyzes the image based on a lightweight target detection model (such as NanoDet-Plus or YOLOv5-n model). That is, the shrimp transfer mechanism also has a recognition module, which can be used to change the direction of the shrimp during transfer so that the shrimp head removal mechanism can remove the shrimp head. The recognition module is the K230 visual recognition board and the control system. The recognition module (imaging module) on the K230 visual recognition board is aligned with the position of the shrimp held by the grippers to determine the orientation of the shrimp. That is, it accurately identifies the connection between the shrimp head and the shrimp body and simultaneously determines the orientation of the shrimp body, i.e., whether the shrimp head is facing forward or backward.

[0026] Based on the recognition results, the control system combines the preset pixel-physical coordinate mapping relationship to calculate the conveying distance required for the connection part to reach the preset cutting station, and controls the conveyor belt 3 to continue running for that distance and then stop immediately, so that the shrimp neck is accurately aligned with the subsequent clamping (i.e., aligned with the position of the clamping claw 26) and the cutting position (aligned with the position of the cutting blade 32). Next, the gripper 26 (preferably made of flexible material) descends above the shrimp body; based on the previously determined shrimp orientation, a horizontal servo drives the gripper to perform adaptive rotation: if the shrimp head is facing forward, the gripper 26 rotates clockwise to the gripping position; if the shrimp head is facing backward, the gripper 26 rotates counterclockwise to the gripping position; ensuring that the gripper 26 always stably grips the connection between the shrimp head and the shrimp body; the opening and closing of the gripper 26 is controlled by the opening and closing servo 21 in conjunction with gear one 25 and gear two, specifically: when the opening and closing servo 21 is activated, the free end of the opening and closing servo 21 drives gear one 25 to rotate, thereby driving the three-bar linkage to rotate, causing the gripper arm to rotate. At the same time, the rotation of gear one 25 also drives gear two relative to it. As gear one rotates, it rotates in the opposite direction. The three-bar linkage on gear two also moves relative to the three-bar linkage on gear one, causing the other gripper arm 261 to deflect. Ultimately, the two gripper arms 261 move closer or further apart, that is, the gripper formed by the two gripper arms 261 opens and closes. The gripping surface on the gripper arm 261 is preferably provided with anti-slip texture to prevent the shrimp from slipping off (wherein, (a) is the process of the gripper moving towards the top of the conveyor belt, (b) is the process of the gripper approaching the top of the conveyor belt and opening the gripper, (c) is the process of the gripper moving away from the conveyor belt after grabbing the shrimp, (d) is the process of the gripper approaching the shrimp rack, and (e) is the process of releasing the gripper). Among them, the lead screw motor 20 drives the lead screw 23 to move vertically up and down, which in turn drives the horizontal servo motor 24 below, as well as the opening and closing servo motor 21, the gripper, gear one, and gear two to move vertically up and down as a whole. After clamping is completed, the gripper 26 returns to its upright position and moves horizontally under the action of the synchronous belt 19 and the sliding plate 40, transferring the shrimp body from the end of the conveyor belt 2 to the fixed cutting station below the cutter 32. Next, the cam motor 30 is started. The cam 27 moves clockwise under the drive of the free end of the cam motor 30. During the circular motion, the cam 27 presses the cam follower 31 to move vertically, thereby driving the slide plate 28 to move vertically along the linear guide rail 34 where the linear bearing is located, thereby driving the cutter (26) to move downward in the vertical direction until the shrimp head is cut off; in addition, the spring 29 plays a buffering role.

[0027] Furthermore, after the head is cut off, the electromagnetic push rod 38 is activated, thereby driving the six-bar linkage 33 to move forward (e.g., Figure 5 (The green arrow in the figure shows the movement), which in turn drives the shrimp head pusher (20) to push away the shrimp head, leaving only the shrimp body with the shrimp shell; Reactivate electromagnetic push rod 37, thereby driving connecting rod 36 to move, which in turn pulls the shrimp plate 35 to flip (e.g.) Figure 5 (The red arrow deflects) to open the opening, allowing the shrimp to slide into the next process for further handling.

[0028] The entire process requires no human intervention, achieving high-precision recognition, adaptive clamping, and reliable head cutting of shrimp facing any direction, significantly improving the level of automation and processing consistency.

[0029] In addition, the processing device also includes a shrimp shell removal mechanism, which is mounted on the mounting frame 5 and located below the shrimp head transfer mechanism. Shrimp for head removal are transferred to the shrimp shell removal mechanism via the transfer mechanism for shell removal. The shrimp shell removal mechanism includes a rubber roller 17, which is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 5 via a drive module 3 (specifically, the drive module 3 includes a rubber roller motor 15, the fixed end of which is fixedly mounted on the connector 5, and the free end of which is connected to the shaft of the rubber roller 17). The rubber roller 17 is inclined downwards on the mounting frame 5 from one side close to the shrimp plate 35 to the other side. Two rubber rollers 18 are rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 5 in the same manner as the rubber roller 17. The two rubber rollers 18 are driven synchronously by a drive module 4 (specifically, the drive module 4 includes a rubber roller motor 15). 6. Its fixed end is fixedly installed on connector five, and its free end is connected to the shaft of one of the rubber rollers 2 18; the other rubber roller 2 18 is rotatably sleeved on connector five, and two meshing gear sets are also rotatably installed on connector five. Gears 3 14 are also fixedly installed on the two rubber rollers 2 18, and the two gears 3 14 mesh with the gear sets. The two rubber rollers 2 18 are at the same height on the mounting frame 5 and are both higher than rubber roller 1 17, and the diameter of rubber roller 1 17 is larger than the diameter of rubber roller 2 18. Motor 16 of rubber roller 2 drives gears 3 14 to rotate, so that the two rubber rollers 2 18 rotate in opposite directions. Motor 15 of rubber roller 1 drives rubber roller 1 17 to rotate back and forth. The shrimp is squeezed and rubbed in the gap between rubber roller 1 17 and rubber roller 2, so that the shrimp meat is separated from the shrimp shell. After separation, subsequent operations are carried out.
