Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of optical detection machines, in particular to a sorting device for optical detection machines. Background Art

[0002] An optical inspection machine is a device that uses optical technology for detection and analysis. It usually uses optical elements such as lenses, light sources, etc. to illuminate and observe samples, and obtains sample information by monitoring the sample's absorption, emission, and scattering of light. Optical inspection machines are widely used in life sciences, healthcare, food safety, materials science and other fields.

[0003] The optical inspection machine inspects the product through the inspection lens, and the products that do not meet the standards need to be cleaned. Therefore, in order to facilitate the sorting of the products, it is necessary to use a sorting device for an optical inspection machine to perform the sorting operation. For example, the prior art Chinese patent announcement number "CN219292071U" discloses an AOI automatic size sorting device, including a device body, a conveyor belt is arranged on the device body, a connecting column is installed on the device body, a lifting groove is opened on the connecting column, and a driving motor is installed on the connecting column. Through the provided conveyor belt, a number of products to be inspected are sequentially conveyed to the bottom of the optical inspection mechanism, and the lifting plate can be driven vertically by the driving motor according to the different products to be inspected, so as to adjust the height of the optical inspection mechanism and improve the adaptability of the device. When the optical inspection mechanism detects that the product size is inconsistent with the preset value, an electric signal will be sent to the electric push rod, and the movable push plate will be driven to extend and retract by the electric push rod, so that the products on the conveyor belt that do not meet the size requirements are pushed out of the conveyor belt, so that they fall into the discharge trough, and slide into the storage drawer through the discharge trough, which is convenient for subsequent recycling. The whole process does not require manual operation, which greatly improves the production efficiency, and the device structure is simple and compact.

[0004] Some sorting devices cooperate with the push plate under the action of the detection mechanism to sort out unqualified products. However, in actual operation, the unqualified products will enter the collection trough for recycling after being sorted. However, considering that the space in the collection trough is limited, as the products are piled up and squeezed against each other, the collection trough may be blocked, which in turn affects the normal progress of the sorting operation and has poor practicality.
