[0012] Preferably, the rotating block is movably embedded in the rotating groove, and a plurality of pulleys are movably connected to the bottom of the blanking frame.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the utility model are:
[0014] First, pour the raw materials into the loading frame, turn on the conveyor belt to drive the paddle to move, then pull the movable plate outward, the movable slot is opened, and the raw materials will flow from the loading frame and the movable slot into the blanking frame. When the raw materials fall on the paddle, they will be supported by the paddle and lifted to the top of the hopper with the movement of the conveyor belt. With the circular movement of the conveyor belt, the paddle will be turned over when passing through the hopper, and then the raw materials will be poured into the hopper. During the turning process, the raw materials falling from the hopper will be blocked by the baffle and fall back into the blanking frame. The hopper will put the raw materials into the main body of the color sorter for sorting. The cooperation of multiple components can reduce the difficulty of loading materials for operators, improve loading efficiency, and thus improve the working efficiency of the device.
[0015] Second, the sorted raw materials will fall into the unloading frame from the unloading position of the main body of the color sorter. When the unloading frame is full, pull the unloading frame outward, and the slider will move from the flat slot to the inclined slot. Since the inclined slot is inclined, the slider will rotate through the rotating block to adapt to the angle of the inclined slot. When the slider moves out of the inclined slot, the pulley will contact the ground. At this time, the unloading frame can be moved by the pulley. The use of the unloading frame makes it easier for users to collect the sorted raw materials, and the combination of the flat slot, the stabilizing block and the slider can help users quickly fix the position of the unloading frame, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0034] Through the above technical solution, the pulley 20 is provided to facilitate the user to move the blanking frame 15.
[0035] When in use, the raw materials are poured into the loading frame 5, and the conveyor belt 6 is turned on through the external control terminal, so that the conveyor belt 6 drives the paddle 7 to move. At this time, the movable plate 9 is pulled outward to make the limit blocks 10 on the upper and lower sides of the movable plate 9 move from one end of the limit groove 12 to the other end. At this time, the movable groove 11 is opened, and the raw materials will flow into the blanking frame 3 from the loading frame 5 and the movable groove 11. When the raw materials fall on the paddle 7, they will be supported by the paddle 7 and lifted to the top of the hopper 2 following the movement of the conveyor belt 6. With the circular movement of the conveyor belt 6, the paddle 7 will be turned over when passing through the hopper 2, and then the raw materials will be poured into the hopper 2. During the turning process, the raw materials will be sucked out of the hopper 2. The raw materials dropped by the side will be blocked by the baffle 8 and fall back into the blanking frame 3. The hopper 2 will put the raw materials into the color sorter body 1 for sorting. The sorted raw materials will fall into the blanking frame 15 from the blanking place of the color sorter body 1. When the blanking frame 15 is full, the blanking frame 15 is pulled outward. When the stabilizing block 19 moves out of the stabilizing groove 18, the slider 21 moves from the flat groove 17 to the inclined groove 16.
