[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of instant noodle production, in particular to an automatic identification and screening device for instant noodle production. Background Art

[0002] Instant noodles are a kind of fast food product that is convenient and quick to eat. In order to ensure the quality of the final product during the production process, instant noodles need to be tested, mainly for appearance and weight, to check whether the packaging bag is damaged or whether there is an empty package, and to remove unqualified products.

[0003] At present, the identification and screening of instant noodles are mainly through human visual judgment and weighing and testing the packed instant noodles. The disadvantage is that the human eye is subject to visual fatigue, which causes the omission of unqualified products. If there is a problem with the centralized weighing, the whole box of instant noodles needs to be removed and screened again, which is very troublesome. Based on this, we propose an automatic identification and screening device for instant noodle production to improve it. Utility Model Content

[0021] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0022] like Figure 1-4 As shown, an automatic identification and screening device for instant noodle production includes a support base 1 and a mounting base 2, a weighing sensor 3 is fixedly arranged on the upper end of the support base 1, a bracket 4 is fixedly connected to the weighing sensor 3 and the upper end of the mounting base 2, a conveyor belt 5 is rotatably arranged on the upper end of the bracket 4, guard plates 6 are fixedly connected on both sides of the bracket 4, a mounting frame 1 7 and a mounting frame 2 8 are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the two guard plates 6, cameras 9 are fixedly arranged on the mounting frame 1 7 and the mounting frame 2 8, a cylinder 10 is fixedly arranged on the mounting frame 2 8, a baffle 11 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder 10, a driving shaft 13 is rotatably arranged on the guard plate 6, a connecting plate 14 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the driving shaft 13, and a throwing plate 15 is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting plate 14.

[0023] In this embodiment, a waste box 16 is fixedly provided on the mounting base 2, and a guide plate 17 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the waste box 16 for guiding materials.

[0024] In this embodiment, a second cylinder 18 is hinged on one side of the bracket 4, and the other end of the second cylinder 18 is hinged on the front and rear outer walls of the guide plate 17. The action of the second cylinder 18 drives the guide plate 17 to flip.

[0025] In this embodiment, the side of the throwing plate 15 facing the mounting frame 2 8 is made of an inclined structure to facilitate loading, and the side of the throwing plate 15 facing the mounting frame 1 7 is fixedly provided with a vertical plate to serve as a material stop.

[0026] In this embodiment, a motor is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the guard plate 6, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to one end of the drive shaft 13. The drive shaft 13 is driven to rotate by the motor, so that the throwing plate 15 can be turned over conveniently through the connecting plate 14.

[0027] In this embodiment, the mounting frame 1 7 and the mounting frame 2 8 are arranged at both sides of the throwing plate 15 , and the mounting frame 1 7 is arranged at one side of the waste box 16 .

[0028] In this embodiment, sliding rods 12 are fixedly connected to both sides of the upper end surface of the baffle 11, and the upper ends of the two sliding rods 12 pass through the mounting frame 2 8. The movement of the baffle 11 is limited by the sliding rods 12, and the load of the cylinder 10 is reduced when the baffle 11 is blocking the material.

[0029] It should be noted that the utility model is an automatic identification and screening device for instant noodle production. When in use, the instant noodles enter the conveyor belt 5 and are weight-detected by the weighing sensor 3. As the conveyor belt 5 moves, the instant noodles are first image-recognized by the camera 9 under the mounting frame 8, and then enter the throwing plate 15. The cylinder 10 drives the baffle 11 to move down to block the next wave of instant noodles. At the same time, the motor drives the drive shaft 13 to rotate, and drives the throwing plate 15 to flip through the connecting plate 14, so that the instant noodles are turned upside down on the other side of the conveyor belt 5, so that the instant noodles are turned over, and then the throwing plate 15 is reset. At the same time, the cylinder 10 drives the baffle 11 to rise, which is convenient for the next wave of instant noodles to pass through. At the same time, the camera 9 on the mounting frame 7 is used to perform image recognition on the back of the turned instant noodles. When there is no problem, it is directly introduced into the next process through the guide plate 17. When a problem occurs, the cylinder 18 is actuated to drive the guide plate 17 to flip and lift, so that the instant noodles fall directly into the waste box 16 and are collected, which is convenient and trouble-free.

[0030] The above shows and describes the basic principle and main features of the utility model and the advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principle of the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected. The scope of protection claimed by the utility model is defined by the attached claims and their equivalents.
