Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of screening equipment, and more specifically, to a tulip bulb screening machine. Background Art
[0002] Tulip bulbs come from the differentiation of mother bulbs. When the bulbs mature, they can be separated, transplanted and propagated. The separation of bulbs can be done manually or naturally. Manual separation is usually carried out in autumn. After digging out the bulbs, they are separated into multiple small bulbs with a blade or manually. Natural separation is because the bulbs will gradually split into multiple small bulbs during their growth process, and these small bulbs will grow into new plants on the ground. Currently, tulip bulbs need to be screened before being sold or planted, so as to be screened and graded according to different weights.
[0003] At present, when tulip bulbs are screened by weight, a large amount of labor is needed to screen and process the tulip bulbs in order to meet the needs of screening production. However, increasing labor input to improve screening efficiency is not conducive to the development of the tulip bulb processing industry.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The following is a specific embodiment of the present invention. People familiar with the technology can easily understand the other advantages and functions of the present invention from the contents disclosed in this specification. Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0022] Combined with reference Figure 1-Figure 4 The utility model provides a tulip bulb screening machine, including a base 1, on which a conveyor 2 for transporting tulip bulbs is arranged. In the utility model, the conveyor 2 preferably adopts a belt conveyor. A linear module 3 is also arranged on the base 1, and the linear module 3 is an existing linear drive device. A rotating unit 4 is arranged on the linear module 3, and a plurality of weighing units 5 for weighing tulip bulbs are arranged on the rotating unit 4. A guide hopper 6 is arranged at the end of the conveyor 2, and the guide hopper 6 is located at the upper side of one of the weighing units 5. The guide hopper 6 can be used to transfer the tulip bulbs falling from the end of the conveyor 2 to the weighing unit 5. A plurality of dividing plates 7 for transferring tulip bulbs are arranged on one side of the weighing unit 5. The plurality of dividing plates 7 are arranged side by side, and the dividing plates 7 are arranged in a U-shaped structure, so that the screened tulip bulbs can be conveniently transferred.
[0023] A plurality of baffles 8 are arranged at intervals on the conveying surface of the conveyor 2. The baffles 8 are arranged on the conveying belt of the conveyor 2. Two adjacent baffles 8 can transport tulip bulbs individually.
[0024] The rotating unit 4 includes a bracket 41, which is arranged at the sliding part of the linear module 3. The inner side of the bracket 41 is rotatably connected to a mounting rod 42, and the side of the bracket 41 is fixedly connected to a rotating device 43. The output end of the rotating device 43 is transmission-connected to one end of the mounting rod 42. The rotating device 43 can adopt a rotating motor. By controlling the intermittent output drive of the rotating motor, the mounting rod 42 can drive the weighing unit 5 thereon to rotate and move, which can improve the coordinated utilization of multiple weighing units 5 and facilitate the unloading of weighed tulip bulbs.
[0025] The weighing unit 5 includes a weighing device 51, which uses a weighing sensor. The detection end of the weighing device 51 is fixedly connected to a weighing bowl 52, which is used to place tulip bulbs. An integrated circuit 9 is arranged on the mounting rod 42. Multiple weighing devices 51 are electrically connected to the integrated circuit 9 through corresponding wires. The integrated circuit 9 can be connected to an external controller for signal connection through a wireless communication module or a wired connection method, and the external controller can be electrically connected to the linear module 3 through a wire. The wired connection method requires a conductive ring using existing power supply / signal rotation technology to be set at one end of the mounting rod 42 as a connection hub, which can ensure the high stability of the working of the weighing device 51.
[0026] Specifically, by controlling the conveyor 2 and the rotating device 43 to operate in coordination, when the tulip bulbs fall from the end of the conveyor 2 and fall into the guide hopper 6, the guide hopper 6 can pour the tulip seedlings into the weighing bowl 52, and the weighing sensor can weigh the weight of the tulip bulbs in the weighing bowl 52, and the weight range is graded by the controller. For example, according to the grading standard of setting three dividing plates 7 in the utility model, the tulip bulbs can be divided into three levels, which are 5-10 grams, 10-20 grams and 20-30 grams respectively. When the weighing bowl 52 continues to drive the tulip bulbs to rotate and discharge, the linear module 3 can adjust the linear position of the weighing bowl 52 to make the tulip bulbs in the weighing bowl 52 correspond to the dividing plate 7 corresponding to the weight range of the tulip bulbs. After the weighing bowl 52 is rotated to a certain angle, the tulip bulbs in it can be poured into the corresponding dividing plate 7, thereby meeting the weight screening requirements of the tulip bulbs and improving the screening efficiency.
[0027] The control method of the utility model is automatic control through a controller, and the control circuit of the controller can be realized by simple programming by technicians in this field, and the provision of power supply is also common knowledge in this field.
[0028] A rubber pad 10 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the weighing bowl 52. The rubber pad 10 is adapted to the bowl-shaped structure of the weighing bowl 52. The rubber pad 10 can be used to cushion the tulip bulbs that enter the weighing bowl 52 through the guide hopper 6, thereby reducing the breakage rate of the bulbs.
[0029] The guide hopper 6 is arranged in an isosceles trapezoidal structure, and the guide hopper 6 is arranged at an inclined angle. In the utility model, the guide hopper 6 can also be made of rubber material to guide the tulip bulbs, which can also reduce the breakage rate of the bulbs. The advantage of the isosceles trapezoidal structure of the guide hopper 6 is that the size of one end of the guide hopper 6 is smaller than the diameter of the weighing bowl 52, and the size of the other end of the guide hopper 6 is smaller than the width of multiple dividing plates 7. In this way, when the weighing bowl 52 transfers the tulip bulbs horizontally, the effectiveness of the conveyor 2 pouring the bulbs into the weighing bowl 52 can be guaranteed; the advantage of the guide hopper 6 being arranged at an inclined angle is that it is convenient for the tulip bulbs to roll when falling.
[0030] A fixing frame 11 is fixedly connected to the bracket 41, a guide hopper 6 is fixedly connected to the fixing frame 11, a fixing frame 2 12 is fixedly connected to the base 1, a dividing plate 7 is fixedly connected to the fixing frame 2 12, and the dividing plate 7 is arranged at an inclined angle. Each dividing plate 7 can provide a dedicated weight range for the transfer of tulip bulbs, and the advantage of the inclined setting is that it can facilitate the rolling of the tulip bulbs.
