[0030] When using the French fry conveying device 10 in this embodiment, the fried French fry are first placed on the straightening plate 310, and the straightening component 320 drives the straightening plate 310 to move relative to the connecting frame 200, and the vibration device 400 drives the connecting frame 200 to vibrate at the same time, thereby straightening the French fry along the straightening groove 311, and driving the straightened French fry to be conveyed and output toward the conveying device 500.

[0031] In the French fry conveying device 10 of the present embodiment, by arranging the straightening device 300, the vibrating device 400 and the conveying device 500, the disordered French fries can be straightened to make them arranged neatly, which is convenient for subsequent packaging and transportation, with a high degree of automation and high conveying efficiency.

[0032] Specifically, the straightening component 320 includes a straightening motor 321 and a straightening connecting rod 322, one end of the straightening connecting rod 322 is connected to the straightening plate 310, the straightening motor 321 is connected to the connecting frame 200, the other end of the straightening connecting rod 322 is connected to the output end of the straightening motor 321 and is eccentrically arranged with the output shaft of the straightening motor 321, and the straightening motor 321 is used to drive the straightening plate 310 to reciprocate in the straightening direction relative to the connecting frame 200.

[0033] When using the French fry conveying device 10 of this embodiment, the straight motor 321 can be started to drive the straight connecting rod 322 to move relative to the connecting frame 200. Since the end of the straight connecting rod 322 is eccentrically arranged with the output shaft of the straight motor 321, the straight plate 310 can be driven to move relative to the connecting frame 200, so that the French fries on the straight plate 310 are moved along the extension direction of the straight groove 311 (the Y direction in the figure) under the guidance of the inner wall of the straight groove 311, so that the French fries can be regularized along the Y direction, which is convenient for conveying to the conveying device 500 for outputting the French fries.

[0034] In one embodiment, the straightening assembly 320 further includes a first guide rail 323 , and the straightening plate 310 and the connecting frame 200 are slidably connected via the first guide rail 323 , and the first guide rail 323 is arranged parallel to the straightening direction.

[0035] In this embodiment, a first guide rail 323 is provided to connect the straightening plate 310 and the connecting frame 200. When the straightening motor 321 drives the straightening plate 310 to move relative to the connecting frame 200 through the straightening connecting rod 322, the straightening plate 310 can be ensured to move along the extension direction of the first guide rail 323 (i.e., the Y direction in the figure), while improving the smoothness of movement between the straightening plate 310 and the connecting frame 200.

[0036] Furthermore, the vibration device 400 includes a vibrator 410 and a shock-absorbing foot 420 , the shock-absorbing foot 420 is connected to the frame 100 , and the vibrator 410 is connected to the shock-absorbing foot 420 and the connecting frame 200 , respectively.

[0037] By setting a shock-absorbing foot 420 between the frame 100 and the vibrator 410, the shock-absorbing foot 420 can cushion the movement of the vibrator 410 when the vibrator 410 vibrates, so that the connection between the frame 100 and the vibrator 410 is a flexible connection. Compared with installing the vibrator 410 and the frame 100 in a rigid connection manner, the vibration effect of the vibrator 410 can be guaranteed.

[0038] Preferably, the vibrator 410 is a linear vibrator, and the vibrator 410 is used to drive the connecting frame 200 to reciprocate in a direction parallel to the extending direction of the straight groove 311 .

[0039] It can be understood that by using a linear vibrator to drive the connecting frame 200, the connecting frame 200 can be moved along the conveying direction of the French fries on the straight plate 310 (preferably parallel to the extension direction of the straight groove 311), so that the French fries can be moved toward the conveying device 500 under the driving action of the vibrator 410 to improve the conveying efficiency of the French fries toward the conveying device 500; of course, in other embodiments, the vibrator 410 can also drive the connecting frame 200 to vibrate the French fries in a direction perpendicular to the straight groove 311, so that the French fries can be more efficiently regularized in the straight groove 311.

[0040] Specifically, the conveying device 500 includes a baffle 510, an adjusting drive member 520 and a conveying assembly 530. The adjusting drive member 520 is respectively connected to the frame 100 and the baffle 510, and the adjusting drive member 520 is used to drive the baffle 510 to move toward or away from the output end of the straight groove 311. The conveying assembly 530 is connected to the baffle 510 and is used to drive the French fries on the baffle 510 to be output.

[0041] According to the configuration, after the French fries on the straight plate 310 are conveyed to the conveying device 500, the French fries first fall into the baffle 510, and the baffle 510 is driven to move toward or away from the straight plate 310 by the adjustable driving member 520, so that the straight plate 310 and the baffle 510 are spaced apart to form a storage space for accommodating the regularized French fries. At this time, the conveying assembly 530 is cooperated with the baffle 510 to push the French fries on the baffle 510 out of the French fries conveying equipment 10 or push the French fries to the next workstation (for example, packaging, salting, etc.).

[0042] In one embodiment, the conveying assembly 530 includes a conveying push plate 531 and a conveying motor 532, the conveying motor 532 is connected to the baffle 510, the conveying push plate 531 is connected to the conveying motor 532, the conveying motor 532 is used to drive the conveying push plate 531 to move relative to the baffle 510, and the conveying push plate 531 is used to push the French fries on the baffle 510.

[0043] When using the French fry conveying device 10 of this embodiment, the conveying motor 532 is started to drive the conveying push plate 531 to move along the length direction of the baffle 510 (Y direction in the figure). At this time, the conveying push plate 531 can push the French fries along the baffle 510 to the outside of the baffle 510 or to the next workstation. The overall structure is simple and easy to assemble and maintain later.

[0044] Furthermore, the conveying device 500 also includes a discharging component 540, which includes a discharging rack 541 and a discharging drive 542.

[0045] According to the arrangement, the French fries on the baffle 510 can be conveyed to the discharging component 540 under the driving action of the conveying component 530. When the French fries need to be discharged, the discharging driving component 542 drives the discharging rack 541 to close, for example, the discharging rack 541 can be blocked at the output port of the baffle 510, and the French fries can be blocked on the baffle 510 at this time; when the French fries need to be discharged, the discharging driving component 542 controls the discharging rack 541 to open, for example, the discharging rack 541 can be driven to flip in the direction away from the baffle 510, and a groove for guiding the French fries can be set on the discharging rack 541. By flipping the discharging rack 541 relative to the baffle 510, the groove on the discharging rack 541 can be directed to a preset direction, so as to guide the French fries on the baffle 510 to the preset direction. Specifically, the discharge drive component 542 can be a combination structure of a stepper motor and a transmission belt. The stepper motor drives the synchronous wheel to rotate to drive the transmission belt to move. The transmission belt can drive the discharge rack 541 to rotate relative to the baffle 510. The structure is simple and easy to assemble and maintain later.

[0046] In one embodiment, the conveying device 500 further includes a second guide rail 550 , which is connected to the frame 100 and the baffle 510 , respectively, and an extension direction of the second guide rail 550 is perpendicular to a moving direction of the conveying assembly 530 .

[0047] In this embodiment, by setting a second guide rail 550 to connect the baffle 510 and the frame 100, when the adjustment drive member 520 drives the baffle 510 to move along the X direction, the second guide rail 550 can guide and limit the movement of the baffle 510 so that the baffle 510 can move smoothly relative to the frame 100.
