Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of X-ray foreign body detectors, in particular to a rejection mechanism for X-ray foreign body detectors. Background Art

[0002] When food is processed and packaged, it is often mixed with certain foreign matter, such as metal, glass, stone, plastic and rubber. These foreign matter not only affects the quality of the food, but some foreign matter is also difficult to detect with the naked eye and is easily eaten by consumers by mistake, causing food safety accidents. Therefore, X-ray foreign matter detectors are generally used to detect whether there are foreign matter in food.

[0003] The X-ray foreign body detection equipment currently in use mainly includes a detection box, a loading and unloading conveying mechanism for conveying food, the loading and unloading conveying mechanisms are arranged at both ends of the detection box, a light source system installed in the detection box and used to emit X-rays, and an image acquisition system for collecting projected X-rays.

[0004] During the inspection process, the food is transported to the inspection box through the loading conveyor mechanism. The inspection box is equipped with a light source system for emitting X-rays. After the food is inspected, the food reaches the unloading conveyor mechanism. If the food contains foreign matter, the food containing foreign matter needs to be removed to avoid it from being mixed with qualified products. The unloading conveyor mechanism includes a conveyor belt bracket and a conveyor belt installed on the conveyor belt bracket. The conveyor belt bracket is equipped with a guide component for guiding the food. When the foreign matter needs to be removed, the guide component drives the foreign matter to another direction to distinguish the food containing foreign matter from the qualified food.

[0005] At present, the guide assembly is a guide frame fixed by bolts and driven to swing by a cylinder. When dealing with foods of different widths, the guide assembly needs to be disassembled and then assembled according to the width of the food. The disassembly and assembly process requires the entire machine to be shut down, which affects the inspection progress, is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and cannot meet current inspection needs.

[0006] Chinese patent CN202320089126.5 discloses a rejection mechanism for an X-ray foreign body detector, which is specifically provided with a guide assembly and a rejection assembly, wherein the guide assembly includes two guide plates arranged opposite to each other, and the rejection assembly includes two rejection plates arranged opposite to each other, the guide plates are hinged to the rejection plates, and a guide plate adjustment mechanism for adjusting the distance between the two guide plates and a rejection plate swing mechanism for driving the two rejection plates to swing are installed on the conveyor belt bracket. However, the technical solution disclosed in the above patent has the following problems:

[0007] 1. When the guide plate adjustment mechanism adjusts the position of the guide plate, the reject plate swing mechanism needs to cooperate with the action, so the entire reject mechanism has many simultaneous action mechanisms and a complicated structure;

[0008] 2. During the position adjustment process of the guide plate, if the reject plate swing mechanism does not move, the guide plate will drive the reject plate to rotate. For example, when the two guide plates move away from each other, the two reject plates will move closer to each other and rotate. Then the two reject plates will collide and cause motion interference.

[0009] Therefore, the above-mentioned rejection mechanism cannot meet the usage requirements. Summary of the invention
