[0002] Rice color sorter is a kind of equipment commonly used in the grain processing industry to sort and screen impurities or defective products in rice. Rice color sorter adopts advanced optical sensing technology to achieve efficient and accurate sorting by high-speed scanning and analysis of rice's color, shape, texture and other characteristics. The color sorter has built-in high-precision optical sensors that can scan and detect rice at high speed. The sensors can detect rice's color, shape, size and other characteristics, and pass this information to the processing system. Once the sorting system confirms the presence of impurities or defective products, the jet device will respond quickly. It will generate airflow or air cushion to blow away the particles that do not meet the requirements from the conveyor belt, thereby achieving separation.

[0003] In the prior art, for example, Chinese patent number: CN216368955U discloses a color sorter for rice processing, including a color sorter body; a feed trough is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the color sorter body, a first servo motor is fixedly installed in the middle of the upper end on the left side of the sorter body, the motor shaft of the first servo motor passes through the left side of the feed trough and is fixedly connected to the first rotating rod, the right end of the first rotating rod horizontally passes through the baffle and is fixedly connected to the baffle, and the middle of the upper end on the right side of the feed trough passes through and is connected to an exhaust trough, and an exhaust fan is arranged in the middle of the exhaust trough. The utility model can detect the dust content of rice above the baffle through the combination of the exhaust trough, the exhaust fan and the dust concentration sensor, and can screen the rice according to the dust content through the combination of the first servo motor, the second servo motor, the guide plate, the first guide trough, the second guide trough, the qualified box and the unqualified box.

[0004] Although the above scheme has the above advantages, the disadvantage of the above scheme is that when using a color sorter to color sort rice, the rice needs to be evenly distributed on the conveyor belt or vibration plate of the color sorter for subsequent sorting processing. The device lacks a necessary discharge device. When in use, the rice is easy to accumulate, affecting the color sorting effect. At the same time, the device only sucks out the dust in the rice, and does not clean the dust on the color sensor. The color sensor is easily covered with dust after long-term use, and the color sensor needs to be manually cleaned, causing a certain waste of manpower and material resources. Utility Model Content

[0036] How it works

[0037] When in use, pour the rice into the mixing bin 1, start the first motor 10, motor model: YE3-100L1-4, power: 2.2KW, the output shaft of the first motor 10 passes through the mixing bin 1 and is fixedly installed on one side of the outer surface of the rotating rod 2, and a plurality of stirring blades 3 are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the rotating rod 2. The first motor 10 rotates to drive the rotating rod 2 to rotate, and the rotating rod 2 drives the stirring blades 3 to rotate, so as to stir the rice in the mixing bin 1, so that the rice can fall evenly on the outer surface of the conveying plate 7. When the rice is about to roll to the bottom of the conveying plate 7, the sensor body 13 performs high-speed scanning and detection on the rice, detects the color, shape, size and other characteristics of the rice, and transmits this information to the processing system. When unqualified rice is detected, the fan 17 is started to generate airflow, and the particles that do not meet the requirements are blown away from the conveying plate 7 and fall into the waste port 19. The qualified rice spirals to the inner side of the rotating rod 2, thereby achieving separation. The baffle 18 prevents the unqualified rice from being mixed with the qualified rice. After a certain period of use, the first motor 10 is started. The second motor 11, motor model: YE3-100L1-4, power: 2.2KW, the output shaft of the second motor 11 passes through the sensor bin 5 and is fixedly installed on one side of the outer surface of the threaded rod 14, the outer surface of the threaded rod 14 is movably sleeved with a slider 15, and the outer surface of the slider 15 is fixedly installed with a scraper 16. The second motor 11 rotates to drive the threaded rod 14 to rotate, and the rotation of the threaded rod 14 drives the slider 15 and the scraper 16 to move, and the scraper 16 wipes the dust impurities on the outer surface of the sensor body 13, so as to solve the problem in the prior art that when using a color sorter to color sort rice, the rice needs to be evenly distributed on the conveyor belt or vibration plate of the color sorter for subsequent sorting treatment. The device lacks a necessary discharge device, and the rice is easy to accumulate during use, which affects the color sorting effect. At the same time, the device only sucks out the dust in the rice, and does not clean the dust on the color sensor. The color sensor is easily covered with dust after long-term use, and the color sensor needs to be manually cleaned, which causes a certain waste of manpower and material resources.
