The motor 402 is fixed by multiple groups of bolts to ensure the stability of the motor 402 during the movement. The output end of the motor 402 is fixedly connected to the rotating disk 403. By starting the motor 402, the rotating disk 403 can be driven to rotate. The connecting rod 4 04, one end is rotatably connected to the rotating disk 403, the other end of the connecting rod 404 is rotatably connected to the transmission block 405, one end of the transmission block 405 is fixedly connected to one side of the vibration frame 406, the knocking block 407 is fixedly connected to both sides inside the vibration frame 406, the first limit plate 408 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protection frame 401, the second limit plate 409 is fixedly connected to the first limit plate 408, the transmission block 405 passes through the hole formed by the first limit plate 408 and the second limit plate 409, and the knocking block 407 can be driven to perform lateral reciprocating motion by starting the motor 402, thereby knocking on both sides of the feed port 3, thereby reducing the accumulation and blockage of the feed port 3.

[0030] See also Figure 2-4 The vibration mechanism 4 also includes a reciprocating screw 411, a reciprocating plate 412 and a knocking wheel 413. One end of the reciprocating screw 411 is fixedly connected to the rotating disk 403, the reciprocating screw 411 is threadedly connected to the reciprocating plate 412, and the knocking wheel 413 is installed on one side of the reciprocating plate 412 by bolts. When the motor 402 is working, it will drive the knocking wheel 413 to reciprocate and knock on the center position of the feed port 3, thereby further avoiding the situation where the feed port 3 is blocked by tea leaves.

[0031] See also Figure 2 A telescopic rod 410 is fixedly connected to one side of the inner wall of the protection frame 401, and the output end of the telescopic rod 410 is fixedly connected to the vibration frame 406. The telescopic rod 410 is used to limit the vibration frame 406 to ensure the stability of the vibration frame 406 during movement.

[0032] See also Figure 2The inner wall of the vibration frame 406 does not fit the outer wall of the feed port 3, and the inner wall of the vibration frame 406 is parallel to the outer wall of the feed port 3, so as to avoid the vibration frame 406 causing wear to the outer wall of the feed port 3 when reciprocating.

[0033] See also Figure 2 One end of the reciprocating plate 412 is slidably connected to a sliding rod 414, and the sliding rod 414 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protection frame 401 to limit one end of the reciprocating plate 412 to ensure the stability of the reciprocating plate 412 during movement.

[0035] See also Figure 2 There are three groups of knocking wheels 413 in total, and the three groups of knocking wheels 413 are located at the center of the feed port 3, which can better knock the center of the feed port 3, thereby avoiding the blockage of the feed port 3.

[0036] Working principle: first, when the tea leaves need to be color-sorted, the tea leaves are conveyed to the position of the feed port 3 through an external conveyor belt, and then the motor 402 is started. The motor 402 drives the rotating disk 403 to rotate, and the eccentric shaft of the rotating disk 403 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 404, and the connecting rod 404 is rotatably connected to the transmission block 405, and the transmission block 405 passes through the hole formed by the first limit plate 408 and the second limit plate 409. Therefore, the rotation of the rotating disk 403 drives the transmission block 405 to perform reciprocating lateral motion, and the movement of the transmission block 405 drives the vibration frame 406 to move, and the movement of the vibration frame 406 drives the knocking block 407 to move, and the knocking block 407 knocks on both sides of the outer wall of the feed port 3. After being knocked, the two sides of the feed port 3 will temporarily vibrate to a certain extent, thereby avoiding the occurrence of tea leaves being blocked;

[0037] Secondly, when the motor 402 is working and drives the rotating disk 403 to rotate, the rotation of the rotating disk 403 will drive the reciprocating screw 411 to rotate, and the reciprocating plate 412 passes through the gap between the two groups of first limiting plates 408, and the reciprocating plate 412 fits with the two groups of first limiting plates 408, so the first limiting plates 408 will limit the reciprocating plate 412 to a certain extent, and the rotation of the reciprocating screw 411 will drive the reciprocating plate 412 to move under the influence of the thread, and the movement of the reciprocating plate 412 drives the knocking wheel 413 to move, and the knocking wheel 413 moves to knock the center position of the feed port 3 to make it vibrate, so as to avoid the feed port 3 from being blocked;

[0038] Finally, when the tea leaves enter the chute of the color sorter body 1, the tea leaves will accelerate down the chute, and the sensor in the chute will detect the tea leaves. When the sensor detects defective tea leaves, the solenoid valve at the bottom of the transmission will open, and the air generated by the fan will blow the defective tea leaves to the defective product discharge port, and the good tea leaves will finally enter the good product discharge port along the chute, thus completing the color sorting of the tea leaves.

[0039] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive from any point of view, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be regarded as limiting the claim to which it relates.
