[0030] Embodiment 1:

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , the above technical solution of the present utility model will be described in detail through the following embodiments:

[0032] An intelligent sorting device for shiitake mushrooms, comprising:

[0033] A feeding assembly 1, the feeding assembly 1 includes a feeding conveyor belt 12, the feeding conveyor belt 12 is connected to a feeding motor 13, the feeding motor 13 is used to drive the feeding conveyor belt 12 to rotate, the feeding conveyor belt 12 is inclined, and a horizontal conveyor belt 15 is arranged below the top of the feeding conveyor belt 12, and the horizontal conveyor belt 15 is used to receive the shiitake mushrooms on the feeding conveyor belt 12;

[0034] When the feeding motor 13 works, it can drive the feeding conveyor belt 12 to rotate clockwise.

[0035] The feeding conveyor belt 12 is fixed below by bolts with a feeding bracket 17, and the feeding bracket 17 is used to support the feeding conveyor belt 12. The horizontal conveyor belt 15 is fixedly installed at the top of the feeding bracket 17 by bolts. The horizontal conveyor belt 15 is connected to a horizontal feeding motor 16, and when the horizontal feeding motor 16 works, it can drive the horizontal conveyor belt 15 to move clockwise.

[0036] A hopper 11 is arranged on the left side of the bottom of the feeding conveyor belt 12, and the bottom of the feeding conveyor belt 12 is inserted into the hopper 11.

[0037] The hopper 11 is used to hold shiitake mushrooms.

[0038] A number of feeding baffles 14 are evenly welded on the surface of the feeding conveyor belt 12, and the feeding baffles 14 are perpendicular to the surface of the feeding conveyor belt 12.

[0039] When the feeding conveyor belt 12 rotates clockwise, it can drive the feeding baffles 14 to rotate clockwise, so as to take out the shiitake mushrooms in the hopper 11. Since the feeding conveyor belt 12 is inclined, the shiitake mushrooms higher than the upper edge of the feeding baffle 14 will slide back into the hopper 11, realizing quantitative feeding.

[0040] When the shiitake mushrooms move to the top of the feeding conveyor belt 12, they will fall from the top of the feeding conveyor belt 12 onto the horizontal conveyor belt 15 and move to the right along with the horizontal conveyor belt 15.

[0041] A sorting device 2, the sorting device 2 is located below the head of the feeding conveyor belt 12, the sorting device 2 includes three groups of sorting brackets 22, a number of sorting rollers 23 are arranged between each group of sorting brackets 22, sorting grooves 24 are evenly arranged on the surface of the sorting rollers 23, the sorting grooves 24 of two adjacent sorting rollers 23 correspond one by one, and the shiitake mushrooms smaller than the inner diameter of the sorting grooves 24 can fall from the sorting grooves 24. The sorting rollers 23 are connected to a driving device, and the driving device is used to drive the sorting rollers 23 to move horizontally; the inner diameter of the sorting grooves 24 gradually increases from top to bottom.

[0042] The upper and lower sorting brackets 22 are fixedly connected through a support bracket 21. The adjacent two groups of sorting brackets 22 are arranged staggeredly. The lower sorting roller 23 is used to receive the shiitake mushrooms above that are larger than the inner diameter of the sorting tank 24.

[0043] The moving directions of the sorting rollers 23 in the adjacent two groups of sorting brackets 22 are opposite.

[0044] A chain plate 25 is provided at the end of the sorting roller 23. The adjacent two sorting rollers 23 are rotationally connected through the chain plate 25. The sorting rollers 23 in the same group of sorting brackets 22 are connected into a whole through the chain plate 25.

[0045] The sorting roller 23 and the chain plate 25 are rotationally connected through a pin shaft.

[0046] The driving device includes four sorting tooth plates 26. The sorting tooth plates 26 are clamped with the sorting rollers 23. A sorting shaft 27 is penetrated and clamped in the middle of every two sorting tooth plates 26. One of the sorting shafts 27 penetrates through the sorting bracket 22 and is connected with a sorting motor 28.

[0047] When the sorting motor 28 works, it can drive the sorting tooth plate 26 to rotate, thereby driving the sorting roller 23 to rotate around the sorting shaft 27. Since the sorting rollers 23 in the same group of sorting brackets 22 are connected into a whole through the chain plate 25, the remaining sorting rollers 23 will rotate around the axes of the two sorting tooth plates 26.

[0048] The uppermost sorting roller 23 rotates clockwise, the middle sorting roller 23 rotates counterclockwise, and the lowermost sorting roller 23 rotates clockwise.

[0049] One end of the sorting bracket 22 close to the sorting motor 28 is fixedly installed with a baffle plate 29 through bolts. The baffle plate 29 is arc-shaped. There is a gap between the inner side surface of the baffle plate 29 and the sorting roller 23. The lower edge of the baffle plate 29 is located in the middle of the lower sorting bracket 22.

[0050] The shiitake mushrooms with a diameter larger than the inner diameter of the sorting tank 24 will move along with the sorting roller 23 until they slide out from the end of the sorting bracket 22. The baffle plate 29 can limit the movement track of the shiitake mushrooms after they slide down, so that the shiitake mushrooms fall onto the middle part of the lower sorting bracket 22, avoiding the shiitake mushrooms flying out and causing waste.

[0051] The discharging assembly 3, the discharging assembly 3 includes several discharging hoppers 31. The discharging hoppers 31 are located directly below the sorting brackets 22. The discharging hoppers 31 are used to receive the shiitake mushrooms falling from the sorting tank 24 and discharge them. The discharging directions of the adjacent two discharging hoppers 31 are different.

[0052] The discharging hoppers 31 are fixedly installed directly below the sorting brackets 22 through bolts. The bottom surface of the discharging hopper 31 slopes downward. The shiitake mushrooms falling into the discharging hopper 31 from the sorting tank 24 can slide down along the slope of the bottom of the discharging hopper 31 to realize automatic discharging.

[0053] Below the right end of the lowermost support frame 21, a discharge conveyor belt 32 is provided, and the discharge conveyor belt 32 is connected to a discharge motor 33.

[0054] When the discharge motor 33 operates, it can drive the discharge conveyor belt 32 to move clockwise. The mushrooms remaining after multiple-layer screening will fall onto the discharge conveyor belt 32 and be transported away by the discharge conveyor belt 32.

[0055] In this embodiment, when an operator uses this device, the mushrooms are put into the hopper 11, and the feeding motor 13, the horizontal feeding motor 16, and the sorting motor 28 are started.

[0056] When the feeding motor 13 operates, it can drive the feeding conveyor belt 12 to rotate clockwise. When the feeding conveyor belt 12 rotates clockwise, it can drive the feeding baffle 14 to rotate clockwise, thereby taking out the mushrooms in the hopper 11. Since the feeding conveyor belt 12 is inclined, the mushrooms higher than the upper edge of the feeding baffle 14 will slide back into the hopper 11 to achieve quantitative feeding.

[0057] When the mushrooms move to the top of the feeding conveyor belt 12, they will fall from the top of the feeding conveyor belt 12 onto the horizontal conveyor belt 15.

[0058] When the horizontal feeding motor 16 operates, it can drive the horizontal conveyor belt 15 to move clockwise.

[0059] The mushrooms that fall onto the horizontal conveyor belt 15 move to the right along with the horizontal conveyor belt 15. Then they fall onto the sorting roller 23.

[0060] When the sorting motor 28 operates, it can drive the sorting tooth plate 26 to rotate, thereby driving the sorting roller 23 to rotate around the sorting shaft 27. Since the sorting rollers 23 in the same sorting support 22 are connected into a whole by the chain plate 25, the remaining sorting rollers 23 will rotate around the axes of the two sorting tooth plates 26.

[0061] When the sorting roller 23 moves, it can drive the mushrooms to move. At the same time, the mushrooms smaller than the inner diameter of the sorting groove 24 can fall from the sorting groove 24. The mushrooms that fall from the sorting groove 24 into the discharge hopper 31 can slide down along the slope at the bottom of the discharge hopper 31 to achieve automatic discharging.

[0062] The mushrooms with a diameter larger than the inner diameter of the sorting groove 24 will move along with the sorting roller 23 until they slide out from the end of the sorting support 22. The baffle 29 can limit the movement track of the mushrooms after sliding, so that the mushrooms fall onto the middle part of the lower sorting support 22. For secondary screening.

[0063] The inner diameter of the lower sorting groove 24 is larger than that of the upper sorting groove 24. Therefore, mushrooms slightly larger than the upper sorting groove 24 can be sorted out.

[0064] The shiitake mushrooms remaining after multiple - layer screening will fall onto the discharging conveyor belt 32 and be carried away by the discharging conveyor belt 32.

[0065] Realize the multi - level automatic sorting of shiitake mushrooms.

[0066] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present utility model is not limited by the above - mentioned embodiments. The above - mentioned embodiments and the descriptions in the specification are only the preferred examples of the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.
