Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wheat processing equipment, in particular to a color sorter for wheat processing. Background Technique
[0002] Wheat is one of the three major grains and is almost entirely used for food. During the wheat processing process, a color sorter is needed for sorting. A color sorter is a device that automatically sorts out different-color particles in granular materials based on the differences in the optical properties of the materials, using photoelectric detection technology. The photoelectric color sorter is a non-destructive sorting device used for the quality detection and grading of bulk materials, and has a wide range of applications in industries such as grain, food, pigment, and chemical industries. It can sort out malignant impurities such as plastics, glass, metals, and same-color rods in grains.
[0003] A color sorter for wheat processing with a publication number of CN210333429U includes a color sorting mechanism, on which a support mechanism and a screening mechanism are provided. The support mechanism includes a housing, a shutter, a feed hopper, an impurity sliding plate, and a wheat sliding plate. The shutter is provided at the front of the housing, the feed hopper is welded to the top of the housing, the impurity sliding plate is welded to the front and rear inner walls of the housing, and a scattering plate is provided on one side of the impurity sliding plate. By designing a vibration frame, a vibration motor, a shock-absorbing spring, a support plate, and a filter screen, the impurities in wheat can be filtered, so that the mixing of impurities and wheat during color sorting can be avoided. However, when these color sorters for wheat processing are working, since the material falling flow channel between the scattering plate and the box body is relatively small, if the falling wheat clumps or has other problems, it is very easy to have a blockage phenomenon. During the operation of the machine, when a blockage phenomenon occurs, it is difficult to be detected, and wheat is still continuously entering, and finally the wheat will overflow, and the machine needs to be stopped for cleaning, affecting the production efficiency.

For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0022] As Figures 1-3As shown in the figure, a color sorter for wheat processing according to the present utility model includes: a box body 1, and a feeding pipe 2 is arranged above the box body 1; a filter screen 3, the filter screen 3 is arranged inside the box body 1, and a scattering plate 4 is arranged below the filter screen 3; a sliding plate 5, the sliding plate 5 is arranged below the filter screen 3, and one end of the sliding plate 5 passes through the impurity discharge port 6; a color sorting mechanism 7, the color sorting mechanism 7 is arranged on the box body 1; a flow sensor 8, the flow sensor 8 is arranged on the scattering plate 4, and a maintenance opening 9 is arranged on one side of the flow sensor 8; a maintenance plate 10, the maintenance plate 10 is rotatably connected to the outside of the maintenance opening 9; the flow sensor 8 is electrically connected to the control box 21, and an alarm 22 is connected to one side of the control box 21.
[0023] In this embodiment, the wheat to be color sorted can be added through the feeding pipe 2. After the wheat is filtered by the filter screen 3 to remove small particle impurities, it enters between the scattering plate 4 and the inner wall of the box body 1 and is color sorted by the color sorting mechanism 7. When a material blockage occurs, the wheat between the scattering plate 4 and the inner wall of the box body 1 cannot fall. At this time, the flow sensor 8 does not detect wheat within a unit time, and the flow sensor 8 will feedback to the controller 21. The controller 21 activates the sound and light alarm 22, so as to timely feedback to the workers the problem of material blockage in the feeding channel. The staff can open the maintenance plate 10 and it is convenient to carry out maintenance through the maintenance opening 9, thereby solving the problem of material blockage. Finally, the maintenance plate 10 is reset to avoid the difficulty of timely discovery when a material blockage occurs, improving the production efficiency.
[0024] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, specifically, an arc plate 11 is arranged below the sliding plate 5. A wheat recovery tank 12 is arranged on one side of the arc plate 11 close to the color sorting mechanism 7, and an impurity recovery tank 13 is arranged on the other side of the arc plate 11; the wheat can be separated from malignant impurities such as plastics, glass, metals, and same-color rods through the arc plate 11, and it is convenient to centrally collect them through the wheat recovery tank 12 and the impurity recovery tank 13.
[0025] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, specifically, a base 14 is arranged below the box body 1. Universal wheels 15 are arranged below the base 14, and an electric lifting rod 16 is arranged inside the base 14. A fixed seat 17 is arranged below the electric lifting rod 16; it is convenient to move the device through the universal wheels 15, and the position of the device can be adjusted. By controlling the electric lifting rod 16 to work, the fixed seat 17 can be driven to lift. When the device needs to be moved, by controlling the electric lifting rod 16 to work to drive the fixed seat 17 to rise, the fixed seat 17 is separated from the ground, facilitating the movement of the device. By controlling the electric lifting rod 16 to work to drive the fixed seat 17 to descend, the fixed seat 17 is in close contact with the ground, facilitating the fixing of the device.
[0026] As Figure 1 andFigure 2 As shown in the figure, specifically, a dust suction pump 18 is provided above the box body 1. One side of the dust suction pump 18 is connected to a dust suction pipe 19 through a conduit, and the other side of the dust suction pump 18 is connected to a dust collection box 20 through a conduit. By controlling the operation of the dust suction pump 18, the dust inside the box body 1 can be adsorbed, reducing the dust carried by the wheat in the wheat recovery tank 12, optimizing the working environment, and concentrating the dust in the dust collection box 20 through the conduit for convenient collection in the later stage.
[0027] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the figure, specifically, the color sorting mechanism 7 includes an air compressor 71. The air compressor 71 is connected above the base 14. The upper part of the air compressor 71 is connected to an air pipe 72. A valve body 73 and a nozzle 74 are provided on the air pipe 72. A camera 75 is provided above the nozzle 74. The camera 75 is connected to the control box 21. The camera 75 is located below the flow sensor 8. By collecting images through the camera 75 and sending them to the control box 21, if the color of the wheat meets the requirements, the wheat naturally falls into the wheat recovery tank 12. If the color of the wheat does not meet the requirements, the control box 21 controls the control valve 73 to open, and blows the wheat through the gap between the scattering plate 4 and the arc plate 11 to one side and falls into the impurity recovery tank 13, so as to slide out to complete the color sorting.
[0028] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the figure, specifically, a receiving frame 23 is provided below the sliding plate 5, and a control panel 24 is provided on the surface of the box body 1. The receiving frame 23 can collect smaller sundries, and the control panel 24 can control the device to work.
[0029] Working principle: Workers can add wheat to be color sorted through the feeding pipe 2. After the wheat passes through the filter screen 3 to filter out small particle impurities, it enters between the scattering plate 4 and the inner wall of the box body 1 and is color sorted by the color sorting mechanism 7. When a material blockage occurs, the wheat between the scattering plate 4 and the inner wall of the box body 1 cannot fall. At this time, the flow sensor 8 does not detect wheat within a unit time, and the flow sensor 8 will feedback to the controller 21. The controller 21 activates the sound and light alarm 22, so as to timely feedback to the workers that there is a material blockage problem in the feeding channel. The workers can open the maintenance plate 10 and facilitate maintenance through the maintenance port 9, thus solving the material blockage problem. Finally, the maintenance plate 10 is reset to avoid being difficult to be discovered in time when a material blockage occurs, improving the production efficiency.
