Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of automatic material filling, in particular to a vegetable and fruit basket filling roller line. Background Art

[0002] In the fruit and vegetable processing industry, the traditional practice of sorting and packaging fruits and vegetables is to rely on a large number of manual labor to pack them into baskets. However, this method of operation is labor-intensive and inefficient, especially in large-scale production. Therefore, how to realize the automatic packing of fruits and vegetables, reduce labor costs, and improve production efficiency has always been a technical problem that needs to be solved in the industry.

[0003] At present, there are some automated basket filling equipment on the market, such as the Chinese invention patent with publication number CN112678256A, which discloses a fully automatic fruit basket filling machine. In this scheme, the manual operation is reduced through the automated basket filling process, thereby improving the basket filling efficiency; the buffer mechanism is designed to slow down the speed of fruit entering the basket, avoiding damage to the fruit surface caused by collision. This solution basically solves the problem of basket filling efficiency. However, these devices are often complex in structure, occupy a large area, have poor adaptability, and are difficult to meet different basket filling requirements. At the same time, these devices are often not well compatible when handling fruits and vegetables or baskets of different sizes and shapes, resulting in a limited scope of use.

[0004] Therefore, it is very important to develop a roller line for loading fruit and vegetables into baskets, which can not only improve the production efficiency of loading baskets and reduce labor costs, but also ensure accurate loading of fruits and vegetables and optimize the space utilization of baskets. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above problems, the utility model provides a vegetable and fruit basket loading roller line, which aims to realize a vegetable and fruit basket loading roller line with high automation and high space utilization through a simple and efficient mechanical structure.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a vegetable and fruit basket loading roller line, which includes a basket sorting line and a basket loading line connected to the end of the basket sorting line, a transport robot is arranged on one side of the basket sorting line, and baskets are loaded from the basket sorting line and flow to the basket loading line under the action of the transport robot, a material bin is arranged above the basket loading line, and a plurality of square rollers driven synchronously with the basket loading line are arranged at the basket loading line opposite to the material bin, and a baffle assembly is also arranged at the end of the square roller, when the basket flows to the square roller, the baffle assembly rises and blocks the basket, and the material bin fills the basket with vegetables and fruits, and when the filled vegetables and fruits reach a set amount, the baffle assembly is lowered, and the basket flows to the end of the basket loading line.

[0007] Based on the above, the fruit and vegetable basket loading process can be automated through the basket sorting line, basket loading line and handling robot, which reduces the intensity of manual labor and reduces production costs; the silo is set on the basket loading line to meet the requirements of reasonable layout and ensure accurate fruit loading; the basket will be blocked by the baffle assembly after reaching the bottom of the silo, and the silo begins to be filled with fruits and vegetables. As the square drum rotates, the basket will continuously produce tiny vibrations. This vibration eliminates the gaps in the fruit and vegetable filling process, optimizing the space utilization of the basket; the photoelectric sensor can monitor the position of the basket and the height of the fruit and vegetable filling, further improving the controllability and accuracy of the production line.

[0008] Furthermore, the starting end of the basket loading line is connected to one side of the end of the basket organizing line, and a push plate assembly is also provided at the junction of the basket organizing line and the basket loading line. The push plate assembly includes a push plate fixing part fixed on the basket organizing line, a push plate whose movement direction is consistent with the running direction of the basket loading line, and a push plate cylinder driving the push plate. Push plate guide rods passing through the push plate fixing part are also provided on both sides of the push plate.

[0009] Based on the above, the utility model arranges the basket loading line at a 90-degree angle at the end of the basket sorting line and ensures that the end of the basket loading line is within the working range of the handling robot, thereby satisfying the reasonable layout of space and effectively realizing efficient and smooth material transfer; the push plate assembly arranged at the junction of the basket sorting line and the basket loading line cooperates with the precise control of the handling robot, so that the basket can be accurately placed on the basket loading line and smoothly flow into the subsequent processing links. The push plate assembly realizes precise and stable basket transfer operation through the coordinated work of the push plate fixing, the push plate, the push plate cylinder and the push plate guide rod; the push plate cylinder acts as a power source to drive the push plate to smoothly push the basket from the basket sorting line to the basket loading line, effectively ensuring the positioning accuracy of the basket during the transfer process; the push plate guide rod provides support on both sides, which increases the stability of the push plate during movement and avoids the push plate from tilting or shaking during movement, thereby ensuring the continuity and efficiency of the entire production line.

[0010] Furthermore, the baffle assembly includes a baffle cylinder fixed at the bottom of the basket loading line and a baffle fixed to the end of the baffle cylinder, and the baffle cylinder drives the baffle to move up and down.

[0011] Based on the above, the baffle assembly, through the ingenious combination of the baffle cylinder and the baffle, can effectively block the basket when the basket moves along the square drum to the bottom of the silo; this design ensures that the basket is accurately positioned during the loading process, avoiding problems such as material overflow or basket overturning due to excessive movement.

[0012] Furthermore, the basket organizing line and the basket loading line are both provided with guide plate assemblies, and the guide plate assemblies include a guide plate fixing part, a guide plate, and a threaded guide rod connected to the guide plate and passing through the guide plate fixing part, and the number of the threaded guide rods provided is at least two, and the position of the guide plate is adjusted by the threaded guide rod.

[0013] Based on the above, the guide plate assembly not only provides lateral support for the basket to prevent it from tipping over during movement through the combination of the guide plate fixing, the guide plate and the adjusting bolt, but also can adapt to the needs of baskets of different sizes and parallel transportation of multiple baskets through width adjustment. This design improves the compatibility of the production line, allowing the same production line to handle fruits and vegetables of different specifications, enhancing the flexibility and diversity of the system. At the same time, the guide plate assembly also helps to maintain the stability of the material during the transportation process, ensuring the smooth progress of the entire basket loading operation, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing production costs.

[0014] Furthermore, a sliding track is provided at the moving end of the transport robot, and the sliding track is slidably matched with a basket grabbing mechanism composed of at least two clamping claws, and the basket grabbing mechanism grabs and transports the basket.

[0015] Based on the above, the utility model provides a sliding track at the end of the transport robot and configures a basket grabbing mechanism composed of at least two clamps under the sliding track, so that the transport robot can flexibly respond to different basket loading requirements.

[0016] Furthermore, the clamp includes clamp one and / or clamp two, the clamp one includes cylinder one slidably fitted on the sliding track, and inner clamp and outer clamp respectively arranged on both sides of the cylinder one, the cylinder one linkage controls the inner clamp and the outer clamp to clamp or release, the clamp two includes cylinder two slidably fitted on the sliding track, and middle clamp symmetrically arranged on both sides of the cylinder two, the cylinder two linkage controls the middle clamp to clamp or release.

[0017] Based on the above, the clamp 1 can realize the precise grasping and releasing of the edge of a single basket through the linkage control of the cylinder 1; such a design enables the handling robot to accurately grasp the basket and place it stably on the basket loading line, avoiding the shaking or falling of the basket during the handling process, thereby ensuring the stability of the production line. In addition, the structural design of the inner and outer jaws also enhances the adaptability of the clamp to baskets of different sizes, making the handling process more flexible and reliable. The linkage control of the cylinder 2 enables the middle jaw to move synchronously, ensuring the balance and stability when grasping two baskets. Such a design improves the versatility of the handling robot, enabling it to cope with different production needs. At the same time, through the precise control of the cylinder 2, the clamp 2 can realize fast and smooth grasping and releasing, greatly improving production efficiency and reducing production costs.

[0018] Furthermore, a photoelectric sensor 1 is provided on the baffle assembly, a photoelectric sensor 2 is provided on the push plate assembly, a photoelectric sensor 3 is provided at the end of the basket loading line, and a photoelectric sensor 4 is provided below the silo.

[0019] Based on the above, adding photoelectric sensors to the vegetable and fruit basket loading roller line can make it more automated and intelligent, effectively improving the convenience of the production process.

[0040] The specific working mode of the utility model is:

[0041] The width of the guide plate assembly 11 is set to match the baskets. In this embodiment, the handling robot 4 picks up two baskets 4a at a time and places them on the basket sorting line 1. Under the adjustment of the guide plate assembly 11 and the basket sorting line 1, the baskets 4a flow out neatly along the direction of the basket sorting line 1. After the photoelectric sensor 3 52 detects that the two baskets 4a are aligned with the basket loading line 2, it sends an electrical signal to the push plate assembly 12. The push plate cylinder 123 pushes the push plate 122 out, and the two baskets 4a are pushed side by side and smoothly onto the basket loading line 2. The two baskets 4a flow along the basket loading line 2 to the bottom of the silo 3 until they are blocked by the baffle assembly 3. After the photoelectric sensor 4 54 detects that the baskets 4a are blocked, it starts to guide the fruits and vegetables into the baskets. Under the action of the square roller 2a, the baskets 4a continuously generate small vibrations to fill the gaps between the fruits and vegetables. When the photoelectric sensor 1 51 detects that the basket 4a is full of fruits and vegetables, the control bin 3 is closed, and then the baffle cylinder 211 is retracted, the control baffle 213 is lowered, and the basket 4a flows to the end along the basket loading line 2. When the photoelectric sensor 3 53 detects that the basket 4a flows to the end of the basket loading line 2, a signal is sent to make the transport robot 4 remove the basket 4a, and pick up the empty basket 4a to repeat the basket loading operation.

[0042] Specifically:

[0043] like Fig. 9 The first embodiment is shown. In this case, the basket grabbing mechanism 6 is composed of two clamps 42. At this time, the basket grabbing mechanism 6 can clamp a basket 4a.

[0044] like Fig.10 The second embodiment is shown. In this case, the basket grabbing mechanism 6 is composed of four clamps 42. At this time, the basket grabbing mechanism 6 can clamp two baskets 4a.

[0045] like Fig.11 The third embodiment is shown. In this case, the basket grabbing mechanism 6 is composed of two clamps 1 42 and one clamp 2 43. At this time, the basket grabbing mechanism 6 can clamp two baskets 4a.

[0046] By analogy, a clamp 2 43 needs to be installed between each two adjacent baskets 4a. This method can make the basket grasping mechanism 6 more compact and suitable for efficient operation in a small space.

[0047] The above description is only the optimal solution embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention.
