Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automation equipment, in particular to a multi-row egg inlet egg sorting device. Background Technique

[0002] Eggs are an important nutritional source in people's lives and the most ideal protein source in natural foods. Due to their rich nutrition and delicious taste, eggs are loved by more and more consumers.

[0003] With the rapid development of technology, the packaging of eggs is generally completed through an assembly line. For example, the Chinese utility model patent with the publication number: CN211997649U discloses an egg sorting and transporting machine, which includes a frame, a loose egg transporting device, a lane dividing mechanism and a sorting transporting device sequentially arranged on the frame along the egg transporting direction. By setting the lane dividing mechanism, the eggs scattered due to batch egg loading can pass through the guiding channels orderly and be transported to the sorting transporting device; by setting the sorting transporting device, the postures of the eggs are adjusted to be consistent. The sorting transporting device drives two chain transmission mechanisms by a motor to drive multiple roller shafts to move forward along the egg transporting direction. An egg-shaped hole is formed between two rollers with opposite positions on two adjacent roller shafts to ensure the axial unity of the eggs on the sorting transporting device. By setting friction blocks and friction strips, the roller shafts vibrate. This vibration is a combined movement of the rotation and movement of the roller shafts. Through this vibration effect, the eggs can be axially unified and the large and small ends are in the same direction during the transportation process, which is convenient for other egg packaging operations.

[0004] Although this device is provided with a lane dividing mechanism, to a certain extent, it can avoid the problem of eggshells being damaged during the shunting process. However, since no buffer mechanism is provided in the guiding channel, when the eggs are transported in the guiding channel, due to inertia, they are still prone to collide with each other, which in turn easily increases the probability of egg damage.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to redesign a new multi-row egg inlet egg sorting device to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

[0006] The utility model provides a multi-row egg inlet egg sorting device to solve the technical problems raised in the above background technique.

[0007] The utility model provides a multi-row egg inlet egg sorting device, which includes a conveying device, a sorting transporting device and an egg dividing mechanism;

[0008] The sorting transporting device is connected to one side of the conveying device and is arranged at the conveying end of the conveying device;

[0009] The egg-sorting mechanism is installed on the conveying device and is arranged on the side of the conveying device close to the sorting and transporting device. The egg-sorting mechanism includes a bracket, and several partition plates, a first side plate and a second side plate are installed on the lower side of the bracket. The several partition plates are installed between the first side plate and the second side plate, and a plurality of guiding channels are formed among the several partition plates, the first side plate and the second side plate. A plurality of buffer mechanisms are installed in the guiding channels.

[0010] Optionally, one end of the partition plate, the first side plate and the second side plate is arranged on the upper side of the sorting and transporting device, so that the guiding channel can extend to the upper side of the sorting and transporting device, so that the eggs can fall on the sorting and transporting device through the guiding channel for conveying.

[0011] Optionally, a pair of connecting rods are connected to the partition plate, the first side plate and the second side plate. One end of the connecting rod passes through the bracket, and a nut is threadedly connected to the connecting rod. The partition plate, the first side plate and the second side plate are fixed on the bracket through the mutual cooperation of the connecting rod and the nut.

[0012] Optionally, a plurality of first accommodating cavities are respectively formed on one side wall of the partition plate and the second side plate, and a plurality of buffer mechanisms are respectively installed in the first accommodating cavities.

[0013] Optionally, the buffer mechanism includes a fixed shaft, the fixed shaft is fixedly connected in the first accommodating cavity, and a rotating buffer plate is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft. The rotating buffer plate is used to block the eggs in the guiding channel, and thus can play a buffering role, so that the eggs in the guiding channel are not likely to collide, thereby reducing the probability of egg damage.

[0014] Optionally, spring placing columns are connected to the side wall of the first accommodating cavity and the rotating buffer plate, which are used to fix the pulling rope and limit the spring at the same time;

[0015] A pulling rope is connected between a pair of spring placing columns. The pulling rope is used to limit the unfolding angle of the rotating buffer plate, so that the rotating buffer plate is not likely to completely block the conveying of the eggs in the guiding channel;

[0016] A spring is arranged outside the pulling rope. The spring is used to make the rotating buffer plate unfold at a certain angle in the natural state. When the egg contacts the rotating buffer plate, the spring will be compressed, so that the rotating buffer plate rotates around the fixed shaft, which is used to reduce the conveying inertia of the eggs, so that the eggs in the guiding channel are not likely to collide with each other.

[0017] Optionally, a second accommodating cavity is formed on the surface of the rotating buffer plate away from the spring, and several rotating rollers are rotatably connected in the second accommodating cavity. When the eggs contact the rotating rollers, the several rotating rollers will rotate, so that the eggs can be normally conveyed and are not likely to be blocked and piled up.

[0018] Optionally, buffer strips are laid on one side of the partition board and the first side board. The buffer strips face the rotating rollers. The buffer strips can reduce the impact force between the eggs and the partition board and the first side board, making it difficult for the eggs to be damaged.

[0019] Optionally, guide cones are connected to the partition board, the first side board, and the end of the first side board away from the sorting and transporting device. The guide cones can play a guiding role.

[0020] Optionally, the rotating rollers, the buffer strips, and the guide cones are all made of rubber or elastic materials.

[0021] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0022] Through the setting of corresponding mechanisms, this multi-row egg inlet sorting device can buffer the eggs transported in the guiding channel, thereby reducing the probability of the eggs colliding with each other in the guiding channel, and thus ensuring the safe transportation of the eggs.

It can be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model, rather than limiting the present utility model. In addition, it should be noted that for the sake of description, only parts related to the present utility model are shown in the drawings, not all structures. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0029] As used herein, the mention of "embodiment" means that the specific features, structures, or characteristics described in connection with the embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the present utility model. The appearance of this phrase at various positions in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. Those skilled in the art will explicitly and implicitly understand that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , a multi-row egg feeding and sorting device of the present utility model includes a conveying device 1, a sorting and conveying device 2, and an egg separating mechanism 3.

[0031] Among them, the conveying device 1 can be a belt conveyor, a chain plate conveyor, or other egg conveying devices, and the conveying device 1 is used to place scattered eggs.

[0032] In addition, the sorting and conveying device 2 is connected to one side of the conveying device 1 and is arranged at the conveying end of the conveying device 1. The sorting and conveying device 2 is used to neatly convey eggs for subsequent processing of the eggs.

[0033] Preferably, the sorting and conveying device 2 is a prior art, and the connections between the components of the sorting and conveying device 2 are also all prior arts. Therefore, the connections and working principles thereof will not be elaborated herein too much.

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , the egg separating mechanism 3 is installed on the conveying device 1 and is arranged on the side of the conveying device 1 close to the sorting and conveying device 2. The egg separating mechanism 3 is used to align the scattered eggs on the conveying device 1 and neatly drop them onto the sorting and conveying device 2.

[0035] Among them, the egg separating mechanism 3 includes a bracket 301. A plurality of partition plates 302, a first side plate 303, and a second side plate 304 are installed on the lower side of the bracket 301. The plurality of partition plates 302 are installed between the first side plate 303 and the second side plate 304. A plurality of guiding channels are formed between the plurality of partition plates 302, the first side plate 303, and the second side plate 304. The eggs can be aligned by using the plurality of guiding channels.

[0036] Preferably, the number of the partition plates 302 in this application is two, that is, three guiding channels can be formed in this application, specifically as Figure 1 shown.

[0037] In addition, one end of the partition plate 302, the first side plate 303, and the second side plate 304 is arranged on the upper side of the sorting and conveying device 2, so that the guiding channels can extend to the upper side of the sorting and conveying device 2, so that the eggs can fall onto the sorting and conveying device 2 through the guiding channels for neat conveying.

[0038] Specifically, a pair of connecting rods 305 are connected to the partition plate 302, the first side plate 303, and the second side plate 304. One end of the connecting rod 305 passes through the bracket 301, and a nut is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 305. The partition plate 302, the first side plate 303, and the second side plate 304 are fixed to the bracket 301 through the mutual cooperation of the connecting rod 305 and the nut.

[0039] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , a plurality of first accommodation cavities 306 are formed in one side wall of the partition plate 302 and the second side plate 304, and a plurality of buffer mechanisms are respectively installed in the first accommodation cavities 306.

[0040] Among them, a plurality of buffer mechanisms are installed in the guiding channel. The eggs in the guiding channel will come into contact with the buffer mechanisms, thereby reducing the conveying inertia of the eggs, making the eggs in the guiding channel not easily collide with each other, reducing the probability of egg damage, and ensuring the safe conveyance of eggs.

[0041] In addition, the buffer mechanism includes a fixed shaft 307. The fixed shaft 307 is fixedly connected to the inside of the first accommodation cavity 306. A rotating buffer plate 308 is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft 307, and the rotating buffer plate 308 can rotate around the fixed shaft 307. The rotating buffer plate 308 is used to block the eggs in the guiding channel, reducing the conveying inertia of the eggs, making the eggs in the guiding channel not easily collide, and thus reducing the probability of egg damage.

[0042] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , spring placement columns 309 are connected to both the side wall of the first accommodation cavity 306 and the rotating buffer plate 308, which are used to fix the pull rope and also used to limit the spring 310.

[0043] Among them, a pull rope is connected between a pair of spring placement columns 309. The pull rope is used to limit the unfolding angle of the rotating buffer plate 308, making it difficult for the rotating buffer plate 308 to completely block the conveyance of eggs in the guiding channel. Preferably, the unfolding angle of the rotating buffer plate 308 is 30°.

[0044] In addition, a spring 310 is provided outside the pull rope. The spring 310 is used to make the rotating buffer plate 308 unfold at a certain angle in the natural state. When the eggs are conveyed in the guiding channel, the eggs will come into contact with the rotating buffer plate 308, causing the spring 310 to be compressed, and the rotating buffer plate 308 rotates around the fixed shaft 307, thereby reducing the conveying inertia of the eggs and making the eggs in the guiding channel not easily collide with each other.

[0045] Specifically, on the side of the rotary buffer plate 308 away from the spring 310, there is a second receiving cavity 311, and several rotary rollers 312 are rotatably connected in the second receiving cavity 311. When the eggs come into contact with the rotary rollers 312, the several rotary rollers 312 will rotate, so that the eggs can be normally conveyed in the guiding channel, and the eggs are not easily blocked and piled up.

[0046] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , buffer strips 313 are laid on one side of the partition plate 302 and the first side plate 303, and the buffer strips 313 are opposite to the rotary rollers 312. The buffer strips 313 can reduce the impact force when the eggs come into contact with the partition plate 302 and / or the first side plate 303, so that the eggs are not easily damaged.

[0047] Among them, the partition plate 302, the first side plate 303 and the end of the first side plate 303 away from the sorting and conveying device 2 are all connected with guiding cones 314, and the guiding cones 314 can play a guiding role.

[0048] Preferably, the rotary rollers 312, the buffer strips 313 and the guiding cones 314 are all made of rubber or elastic materials.

[0049] During specific use, several scattered eggs are placed on the conveying device 1, and under the conveying action of the conveying device 1, the scattered eggs gradually approach the egg separating mechanism 3 and the sorting and conveying device 2.

[0050] The scattered eggs respectively enter into a plurality of guiding channels under the action of the partition plate 302, the first side plate 303 and the second side plate 304. When the eggs in the guiding channel are conveyed, they will come into contact with the rotary buffer plate 308, and the rotary buffer plate 308 will further compress the spring 310, so that the rotary buffer plate 308 rotates around the fixed shaft 307. The rotary buffer plate 308 can be used to reduce the conveying inertia of the eggs, so that the eggs in the guiding channel are not easily collided with each other.

[0051] When the rotary buffer plate 308 is parallel to the side wall of the partition plate 302 or the second side plate 304, the eggs continue to be conveyed in the guiding channel. By arranging the several rotary rollers 312 on the side wall of the rotary buffer plate 308, the probability of the eggs being blocked and piled up can be effectively reduced, ensuring that the eggs can be normally conveyed.

[0052] When the eggs pass through the rotary buffer plate 308, the rotary buffer plate 308 is restored under the action of the spring 310. The pull rope is used to limit the unfolding angle of the rotary buffer plate 308. The next egg in the guiding channel comes into contact with the rotary buffer plate 308, and so on. In this way, the eggs in the same guiding channel are not easily collided with each other, which is convenient for the eggs to be safely conveyed to the sorting and conveying device 2 for subsequent processing of the eggs.

[0053] The above are only the embodiments of the present utility model, and do not thus limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present utility model, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, shall similarly be included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
