[0002] With the development of economy and technology, people have higher requirements for the quality of fruits and vegetables, and the mechanized grading technology of fruits and vegetables after harvest is also constantly improving. In the process of realizing mechanization, the sorting machine converging device that can make fruits and vegetables enter a single arrangement and conveying state from a disordered state plays a vital role. When the existing sorting machine converging device is in operation, it uses the smooth strips installed on the frame and the guide plate to slow down the collision of the fruit cups during operation. The smooth strips are connected to the rollers. When the moving fruit cups contact the rollers, the rollers are subjected to the rolling friction of the fruit cups and rotate at a certain speed, which is conducive to the crowded fruit cups entering the sorting channel, thereby completing the converging sorting of the fruit cups.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0036] The present embodiment provides a sorting machine, which is mainly used for screening and sorting fruits and vegetables. In order to solve the problem that in the fruit cup collection device in the prior art, there will be squeezing and collision between fruit cups, and the fruit cups are prone to flipping due to collision, causing mechanical damage to fruits and vegetables due to bumps, thereby affecting the quality of fruits and vegetables, the present embodiment provides a sorting machine guide device, which is specifically as follows.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, this embodiment provides a sorting machine guide device, including a belt assembly 20, a collecting guide assembly 30, a return flow guide assembly 40 and a driving device 50; the belt assembly 20 includes a feeding belt 21 and a return flow belt 22 arranged on a frame 10, and the input end and the output end of the return flow belt 22 are respectively connected to the output end and the input end of the feeding belt 21; the collecting guide assembly 30 is connected to the frame 10 and is located above the feeding belt 21, and is used to sort the disordered fruit cups on the feeding belt 21 into orderly fruit cups; the return flow guide assembly 40 is connected to the frame 10 and is located at the connection between the output end of the feeding belt 21 and the input end of the return flow belt 22, and is used to divert the excess fruit cups at the output end of the feeding belt 21 to the return flow belt 22; the driving device 50 is used to drive the feeding belt 21 and the return flow belt 22. In detail, the return belt 22 leans against the side of the feeding belt 21 , and the two are arranged in parallel. The return belt and the feeding belt 21 move in opposite directions under the drive of the driving device 50 .

[0038] It can be understood that in this embodiment, a collecting guide assembly 30 is provided on the feeding belt 21 to sort the disordered fruit cups at the input end of the feeding belt 21 into orderly fruit cups, which are discharged from the output end in sequence, and the fruit cups are not assembled and flipped during the sorting process. If there are a large number of fruit cups and they are piled up in the collecting guide assembly 30 or at the output end of the feeding belt 21, the excess fruit cups can be guided from the feeding belt 21 to the return belt 22 through the return belt 22, and then transported to the conveying end of the feeding belt 21 by the return belt 22, so as to achieve a buffering effect and clear the crowded output end of the feeding belt 21.

[0039] Furthermore, the frame 10 includes a support base 11 and a side plate 12 , the side plate 12 is disposed on the support base 11 , and the belt assembly 20 , the converging guide assembly 30 , the reflux guide assembly 40 and the driving device 50 are all disposed on the side plate 12 .

[0040] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the collecting guide assembly 30 includes a first guide plate 31, a second guide plate 32 and a third guide plate 33, all of which are connected to the frame 10. The first guide plate 31 is located at the input end of the feeding belt 21 and is at an angle of 0° to 90° with the feeding direction. The second guide plate 32 is located in the middle of the feeding belt 21 and is at an angle of 0° to 90° with the feeding direction. The third guide plate 33 is located at the output end of the feeding belt 21 and forms an arrangement channel 60 with the return flow guide assembly 40 for only one fruit cup to pass through. In detail, the first guide plate 31, the second guide plate 32 and the third guide plate 33 are in an S shape as a whole in the feeding direction; the arrangement channel 60 of this embodiment can only allow one fruit cup to pass through at a time. In other embodiments, the arrangement channel 60 can also allow two or three fruit cups to pass through at the same time, and the specific number is not limited.

[0041] It is understandable that during the transportation process, the fruit cups can be changed from a disordered state to an arranged state through the guiding effect of the three guide plates and the speed difference formed by the guide plates having a certain length and angle, thereby smoothly entering the conveying channel.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the third guide plate 33 includes a first section 331 and a second section 332 connected to the first section 331 . The first section 331 forms an angle of 0° to 90° with the feeding direction. The second section 332 and the reflux guide assembly 40 form an arrangement channel 60 .

[0043] It can be understood that the third guide plate 33 is bent to form the first section 331 and the second section 332. The first section 331 has the same function as the first guide plate 31 and the second guide plate 32, which is mainly used to sort the fruit cups, and the second section 332 is mainly used to discharge the fruit cups.

[0044] In a preferred embodiment, the sorting machine guide device also includes four pressure rods 70 arranged on the frame 10, one of which is connected to the reflux guide assembly 40, and the remaining three pressure rods 70 are respectively connected to the first guide plate 31, the second guide plate 32 and the third guide plate 33.

[0045] It can be understood that the pressure rod 70 is fixedly connected to the frame 10 by bolts, and it mainly supports the three guide plates.

[0046] Specifically, the pressure rod 70 includes a U-shaped seat 71 and a connecting rod 72, both ends of the U-shaped seat 71 are connected to the frame 10 and span the feed belt 21, and the connecting rod 72 is arranged in the middle of the U-shaped seat 71 and connected to the first guide plate 31 or the second guide plate 32 or the third guide plate 33. In detail, one group of U-shaped seats 71 is fixedly installed on the return flow guide assembly 40 through a support column, and the other three groups of U-shaped seats 71 are fixedly installed above the side plate 12, the first guide plate 31 and the connecting rod 72 of one group of U-shaped seats 71 are fixedly connected above the side plate 12 by bolts, the second guide plate 32 is respectively fixedly connected to the connecting rod 72 on one group of U-shaped seats 71 by bolts and welding plates above the side plate 12, and the third guide plate 33 is connected above the side plate 12 in the same manner.

[0047] In a preferred embodiment, the reflux guide assembly 40 includes a first reflux plate 41 and a second reflux plate 42 connected to the first reflux plate 41. The first reflux plate 41 is connected to the frame 10 and is located at the output end of the feeding belt 21. The first reflux plate 41 has a first side edge 411, which forms an arrangement channel 60 with the third guide plate 33. The first reflux plate 41 also has a second side edge 412, which is adjacent to the first side edge 411 and is used to guide excess fruit cups into the second reflux plate 42; the second reflux plate 42 is connected to the frame 10 and is located at the input end of the reflux belt 22. The second reflux plate 42 has a third side edge 421, which is smoothly connected to the second side edge 421.

[0048] It is understandable that when the number of fruit cups on the feeding belt 21 is small, the fruit cups are discharged from the arrangement channel 60 composed of the first side plate 12 and the third guide plate 33 in an orderly manner through the action of the three guide plates. If the number of fruit cups on the feeding belt 21 is large, many fruit cups will not be discharged from the arrangement channel 60 in time and will accumulate in the arrangement channel 60. At this time, the accumulated fruit cups are drained by the second side edge 412, enter the third side edge 421, and then enter the return belt 22, and then transported by the return belt 22 to the input end of the feeding belt 21 for another cycle.

[0049] In a preferred embodiment, the backflow guide assembly 40 further includes a steering wheel 43, which is disposed at the connection between the first side 411 and the second side 412. In detail, the steering wheel 43 is disposed at the connection between the first side 411 and the second side 412 by bolts or latches, and the steering wheel 43 itself can rotate.

[0050] It can be understood that, since the connection between the first side 411 and the second side 412 of the present embodiment is a corner, the purpose of providing the steering wheel 43 is to prevent the fruit cup from getting stuck at the connection between the first side 411 and the second side 412, so that the fruit cup can quickly and easily slide into the second side 412 and enter the third side 421 when contacting the steering wheel 43.

[0051] In a preferred embodiment, the driving device 50 includes a first motor 51 and a second motor 52 both disposed on the frame 10 . The first motor 51 drives the feed belt 21 to rotate, and the second motor 52 drives the return belt 22 to rotate.

[0052] The guide device of a sorting machine provided in this embodiment has the following advantages:

[0053] In this embodiment, a collecting guide component 30 is provided on the feeding belt 21 to sort the disordered fruit cups at the input end of the feeding belt 21 into orderly fruit cups, which are discharged from the output end in sequence, and the fruit cups are not turned over during the sorting process. If there are a large number of fruit cups and they are piled up in the collecting guide component 30 or at the output end of the feeding belt 21, the excess fruit cups can be guided from the feeding belt 21 to the return belt 22 through the return belt 22, and then transported to the conveying end of the feeding belt 21 by the return belt 22, so as to achieve a buffering effect and clear the crowded output end of the feeding belt 21.

[0054] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not intended to limit the utility model. For those skilled in the art, the utility model can have various modifications and changes.
