Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of processing machinery, in particular to a fruit and vegetable shunting machine and its shunting and conveying mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Before fruits and vegetables are transported to the market, they need to be cleaned, and then the cleaned fruits and vegetables are poured onto a conveyor line for shunting and boxing. After the fruits and vegetables are shunted and boxed, the boxes containing the fruits and vegetables need to be stacked by shunting personnel at a designated position, and then the stacked boxes are loaded onto a vehicle by transportation personnel for transportation. In order to ensure the shunting efficiency of fruits and vegetables, traditionally, several shunting personnel are arranged at the end of a conveyor line for manual shunting, boxing, and stacking, otherwise, there will not be enough time for loading. However, if manual shunting is used, the production cost of fruits and vegetables is relatively high, which results in a large expenditure for fruit and vegetable merchants. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] This application provides a fruit and vegetable shunting machine and its shunting and conveying mechanism, which can independently complete the shunting of fruits and vegetables and reduce labor costs.

[0004] The shunting and conveying mechanism provided by this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A shunting and conveying mechanism includes a first mounting frame and a bearing platform arranged on the first mounting frame for receiving fruits and vegetables. Conveyor chain assemblies are symmetrically installed on both sides of the bearing platform, and the two conveyor chain assemblies operate synchronously;

[0006] A number of connecting rods are arranged at intervals along the conveying direction between the chains of the two conveyor chain assemblies, and the two ends of each connecting rod are respectively fixed to the corresponding chain;

[0007] A plurality of conveying units are sequentially arranged on the connecting rod along its length direction; when passing through the bearing platform, the conveying units are laid flat on the upper surface of the bearing platform; the conveying units at the same position on different connecting rods are connected front and back to form a conveyor belt;

[0008] A plurality of pre-shunting notch openings are arranged on the bearing platform in a staggered manner in sequence, and the plurality of pre-shunting notch openings respectively correspond to one column of conveying units.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, driven by the two groups of conveyor chain assemblies, multiple connecting rods and multiple conveying units will continuously move in a cycle. This will cause the cleaned fruits and vegetables to fall onto the multiple conveying units when they fall onto the bearing platform. When the multiple conveying units move, they will drag the fruits and vegetables located above them. When the conveying unit moves above its corresponding pre-shunting notch opening, the fruits and vegetables will fall into the pre-shunting notch opening under the action of gravity to complete the shunting of fruits and vegetables.

[0010] Preferably, a rear diversion slot opening that spans multiple rows of conveying units is provided at a position near the end of the bearing platform.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, fruits and vegetables that do not fall into multiple front diversion slot openings will eventually fall into the rear diversion slot opening when the conveying unit moves, ensuring that fruits and vegetables will not be left behind during the diversion process.

[0012] Preferably, the opening size of the front diversion slot opening is greater than or equal to that of the conveying unit.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the fruits and vegetables on the conveying unit can be more accurately transferred into the front diversion slot opening.

[0014] Preferably, one end of the conveying unit is movably sleeved on the connecting rod.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, when the conveying unit moves above the corresponding front diversion slot opening, it can rotate into the front diversion slot opening under the pressure of the fruits and vegetables, so that the fruits and vegetables can fall into the front diversion slot opening more smoothly.

[0016] Preferably, a plurality of first conveyor belts are provided on the first mounting frame, and the plurality of first conveyor belts are respectively located below the plurality of front diversion slot openings and the rear diversion slot opening.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, setting a plurality of first conveyor belts facilitates conveying the fruits and vegetables that fall into the plurality of front diversion slot openings and the rear diversion slot opening to the outside of the diversion mechanism for boxing.

[0018] Preferably, a plurality of guiding inclined plates are provided at the bottom of the bearing platform, the plurality of guiding inclined plates are respectively located below the plurality of front diversion slot openings and the rear diversion slot opening, and the bottom ends of the plurality of guiding inclined plates respectively face the plurality of first conveyor belts.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, after the fruits and vegetables fall into the plurality of front diversion slot openings and the rear diversion slot opening, the fruits and vegetables will first roll onto the plurality of guiding inclined plates, and then fall onto the corresponding first conveyor belt under the guidance of the guiding inclined plates. Setting a plurality of guiding inclined plates can reduce the height of the fruits and vegetables falling, thereby reducing the damage when the fruits and vegetables fall, and at the same time can guide the falling direction of the fruits and vegetables to prevent the fruits and vegetables from rolling outside the first conveyor belt when falling.

[0020] The present application also provides a fruit and vegetable diversion machine, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0021] A fruit and vegetable diversion machine includes a diversion and conveying mechanism, and a feeding mechanism that is connected before and after the diversion and conveying mechanism.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, automatic feeding of fruits and vegetables can be completed.

[0023] Preferably, the loading mechanism includes a second mounting bracket and a second conveyor belt mounted on the second mounting bracket.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the washed fruits and vegetables can be directly poured onto the second conveyor belt and then transported to the loading platform.

[0025] Preferably, a cross beam is mounted on the second mounting bracket, and a plurality of hair dryers are mounted on the cross beam. The air outlets of the plurality of hair dryers all face the second conveyor belt.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, after the fruits and vegetables are washed, workers pour the fruits and vegetables onto the second conveyor belt. The plurality of hair dryers will dry the water stains on the surface of the fruits and vegetables during the conveying process, so that the fruits and vegetables are not easily rotten when loaded and transported.

[0027] The technical effects of the present utility model are mainly reflected in the following aspects:

[0028] 1. The present utility model independently completes the diversion of fruits and vegetables, reducing labor costs;

[0029] 2. The present utility model can accurately transfer the fruits and vegetables into the front diversion slot during the diversion process of the fruits and vegetables, improving the diversion efficiency of the fruits and vegetables;

[0030] 3. The present utility model can dry the just-washed fruits and vegetables, so that the fruits and vegetables are not easily rotten when loaded and transported. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0036] The following further details the present application with reference to the drawings, so that the technical solution of the present application is easier to understand and master.

[0037] Reference Figures 1 - 3 , a fruit and vegetable shunting machine of this embodiment includes a shunting mechanism. The shunting mechanism includes a first mounting frame 1, a bearing platform 2 fixed on the first mounting frame 1 for receiving fruits and vegetables. Conveyor chain assemblies 3 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the bearing platform 2, and the two conveyor chain assemblies 3 operate synchronously. A number of connecting rods 31 are arranged at intervals along the conveying direction between the chains of the two conveyor chain assemblies 3, and both ends of the connecting rod 31 are fixed to the corresponding chains respectively.

[0038] Reference Figures 1 - 3 , a number of conveying units 32 are sequentially arranged on the connecting rod 31 along its length direction. One end of the conveying unit 32 is movably sleeved on the connecting rod 31, and the conveying unit 32 is made of PVC material. When the conveying unit 32 passes through the bearing platform 2, it lies flat on the upper surface of the bearing platform 2.

[0039] Reference Figures 1 - 3 , a number of front shunting slots 21 are opened on the bearing platform 2, and the multiple front shunting slots 21 respectively correspond to one column of the conveying units 32 for the passing conveying units 32 to enter. A rear shunting slot 22 spanning multiple columns of the conveying units 32 is opened at a position near the end of the bearing platform 2, and the length of the rear shunting slot 22 is slightly smaller than the width of the bearing platform 2.

[0040] Reference Figures 1 - 3 , a number of first conveyor belts 4 are installed on the first mounting frame 1, and the multiple first conveyors are respectively located below the multiple front shunting slots 21 and the rear shunting slot 22. A number of guiding inclined plates 5 are also fixed to the bottom of the bearing platform 2, and the multiple guiding inclined plates 5 are respectively located below the multiple front shunting slots 21 and the rear shunting slot 22. At the same time, the multiple guiding inclined plates 5 are located above the multiple first conveyor belts 4, and the bottom ends of the multiple guiding inclined plates 5 respectively face the multiple first conveyor belts 4.

[0041] Reference Figure 4 , the fruit and vegetable shunting machine of this application further includes a feeding mechanism 10 connected to the front and rear of the shunting mechanism. The feeding mechanism 10 includes a second mounting frame 6 and a second conveyor belt 7 installed on the second mounting frame 6. A cross beam 8 is installed on the second mounting frame 6, and a number of hair dryers 9 are installed on the cross beam 8. The air outlets of the multiple hair dryers 9 all face the second conveyor belt 7.

[0042] Reference Figures 1 - 4 , the steps of shunting fruits and vegetables by the equipment of this application are as follows:

[0043] Workers pour the washed fruits and vegetables into the second conveyor belt 7, and then the second conveyor belt 7 conveys the fruits and vegetables. During the conveying process of the fruits and vegetables on the second conveyor belt 7, the air outlet of the hair dryer will blow the surface of the fruits and vegetables to blow away or dry the water on the surface of the fruits and vegetables.

[0044] After being conveyed by the second conveyor belt 7, the fruits and vegetables will fall onto the multi-piece conveying unit 32. Driven by the two sets of conveyor chain groups, multiple connecting rods 31 and multiple conveying units 32 will continuously move in a cycle. When the multiple conveying units 32 move, they will drag the fruits and vegetables. When the conveying unit 32 moves above its corresponding pre-shunt chute 21, the fruits and vegetables will fall into the pre-shunt chute 21 under the action of gravity.

[0045] After the fruits and vegetables fall into the pre-shunt chute 21, they will first roll onto the guiding inclined plate 5, and then fall onto the corresponding first conveyor belt 4 under the guidance of the guiding inclined plate 5, and finally be conveyed into the collection box to complete the automatic shunt collection of the fruits and vegetables.

[0046] Of course, the above are only typical examples of this application. In addition, this application can also have many other specific implementation manners. Any technical solutions formed by equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation fall within the scope protected by this application.
