The housing 10 is provided with a support frame 15 for supporting the entire device; the vibration structure 30 includes a rotating part 31, a moving part 32 and a driven part 33. The inner wall of the housing 10 is provided with a The sliding groove 12, the moving member 32 is installed in the sliding groove 12, the rotating member 31 is located in the shell 10 and engages with the moving member 32, and a mounting platform 13 is provided in the shell 10 at the feed port 11. The driven member 33 is installed in the mounting platform 13, and its lower end contacts one end of the moving member 32. The color sorting component 40 is installed in the shell 10 and is located below the vibration structure 30, and is used to color sort the materials falling from the feed port 11.
[0028] In one embodiment of the present invention, the rotating member 31 is provided with a plurality of bosses 311, and each boss 311 is arranged at intervals along the surface of the rotating member 31. The movable member 32 is provided with a plurality of slots 321, wherein one boss 311 is stuck in one of the slots 321, and after the boss 311 is disengaged from the corresponding slot 321, another boss 311 is stuck in another slot 321.
[0029] In this embodiment, the rotating member 31 is in a standard circular ring shape, and the plurality of bosses 311 are arranged along the arc surface of the rotating member 31, wherein a portion of the arc surface is not provided with the boss 311, and the distance between each boss 311 is equal; the moving member 32 is provided with a plurality of protrusions 322, and the plurality of protrusions 322 are arranged along the length direction of the moving member 32, and the interval between two adjacent protrusions 322 forms the card groove 321, and the cross-section of each protrusion 322 and each boss 311 is semi-elliptical.
[0030] A drive motor is provided outside the housing 10. The drive motor may be a stepping motor capable of forward and reverse rotation. The drive motor extends into the housing 10 and is connected to the rotating member 31. When connected to a power source, the drive motor can drive the rotating member 31 to rotate. It is understood that when the rotating member 31 rotates, one of the bosses 311 engages in one of the slots 321, and after the boss 311 disengages from the corresponding slot 321, the other boss 311 engages in the other slot 321, thereby driving the moving member 32 to move laterally.
[0031] In one embodiment of the present utility model, a first baffle 16 is provided above the sliding groove 13, a first elastic member 17 is provided on the first baffle 16, a second baffle 324 is provided on the movable member 32, one end of the first elastic member 17 abuts against the first baffle 16, and the other end abuts against the second baffle 324; a first inclined surface 323 is provided on the movable member 32, and a second inclined surface 331 is provided at the lower end of the follower 33, and the first inclined surface 323 is in contact with the second inclined surface 331.
[0032] In the present embodiment, the first elastic member 17 may be a spring, but is not limited thereto; the cross-section of the sliding groove 12 is in a "T" shape, and the moving member 32 cooperates with the sliding groove 12 to set a "T"-shaped step, which can prevent the moving member 32 from disengaging from the sliding groove 12. It is understandable that when the rotating member 31 drives the moving member 32 to move, it moves toward the driven member 33, and the driven member 33 is arranged perpendicular to the moving member 32. Through the cooperation of the first inclined surface 323 and the second inclined surface 331, the moving member 32 squeezes the driven member 33 during the movement, causing the driven member 33 to move upward, poking the material at the feed port 11, and thus preventing the material from accumulating at the feed port 11.
[0033] When the moving member 32 moves toward the driven member 33 , the second baffle 324 squeezes the first elastic member 17 . When the boss 311 completely disengages from the slot 321 , the moving member 32 returns to its initial position under the elastic force of the first elastic member 17 , and this process is repeated.
[0034] In one embodiment of the present utility model, the mounting platform 13 is provided with a receiving groove 14, a second elastic member 34 is provided in the receiving groove 14, a limit platform 332 is provided on the follower 33, and the second elastic member 34 is sleeved on the follower 33, with its two ends respectively against the limit platform 332 and the top of the receiving groove 14.
[0035] In this embodiment, the second elastic member 34 can be a spring, but is not limited to this; the mounting platform 13 is hollow, and the inner diameter of the accommodating groove 14 is larger than the inner diameter of the mounting platform 13. When the first inclined surface 323 squeezes the second inclined surface 331, under the limit of the mounting platform 13, the follower 33 moves upward, and when the moving member 32 disengages from the follower 33 and returns to the initial position, the second elastic member 34 pushes the follower 33 back to move down to the initial position. As before, the follower 33 repeatedly pokes toward the feed port 11, which can effectively prevent material from accumulating at the feed port 11.
[0036] In one embodiment of the present utility model, a guide plate 50 is provided in the shell, and the guide plate 50 is located below the feed port 11. The color sorting component 40 is located below the guide plate 50, wherein the color sorting component 40 includes a light lamp 41, an air pump 43 and a color sorting lens 42. The light lamp 41 is correspondingly arranged to the color sorting lens 42, and the air pump 43 is located below the color sorting lens 42. The fallen material is illuminated by the light lamp 41, and the color sorting lens 42 selects it, and then the material is screened by the air pump 43.
[0037] In this embodiment, the guide plate 50 includes a first guide plate 51 and a second guide plate 52. The first guide plate 51 and the second guide plate 52 are both arranged at an angle. The material falling from the feed port 11 is slowed down after being buffered by the first guide plate 51 and the second guide plate 52. A vertical plate 53 is provided on one side of the end of the second guide plate 52.

A PLC controller is provided in this color sorting device to control the color sorting lens 42 to screen the material and control the air pump 43 to spray the material. The color sorting lens 42, the light 41 and the air pump 43 are all existing technologies and will not be described one by one here.
[0038] In one embodiment of the present invention, a partition plate 54 is provided at the bottom of the shell 10, and the partition plate 54 divides the shell 10 into two areas. A first channel 61 and a second channel 62 are provided at the lower end of the shell 10. The first channel 61 and the second channel 62 are far away from each other. After color sorting, qualified materials fall directly into the second channel 62, and the materials selected by spraying fall into the first channel 61.
[0039] Working principle: The crushed material is put into the hopper 20, and the material enters the shell from the feed port 11. The drive motor is started to drive the driving member 31 to rotate, so that it drives the moving member 32 to move. When the moving member 32 moves to the preset position, the first inclined surface 323 squeezes the second inclined surface 331. Under the limit of the mounting platform 13, the follower 33 moves upward. When the moving member 32 breaks away from the follower 33 and returns to the initial position, the second elastic member 34 pushes the follower 33 back to move down to the initial position. As before, the follower 33 repeatedly pokes toward the feed port 11, which can effectively prevent material from accumulating at the feed port 11.
[0040] After the material falls through the buffering of the guide plate 50 , the color sorting component 40 can perform color sorting and screening on the material more accurately. After screening, unqualified materials fall from the first channel 61 , and qualified materials fall directly from the second channel 62 .
[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural transformations made by using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the inventive concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
