DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0023] To make the above features and advantages of the present utility model more understandable, specific embodiments are given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings for detailed description. However, the present utility model is not limited thereto.

[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 5

[0025] An ultraviolet sterilization device for eggs includes a cabinet 10 and an egg conveying mechanism that horizontally passes through the cabinet. A plurality of ultraviolet sterilization lamps 20 are evenly distributed above the egg conveying mechanism inside the cabinet. A broken egg collection device is arranged below the egg conveying mechanism inside the cabinet to collect the eggs that are broken and fall downward during the sterilization and conveying process.

[0026] In this embodiment, the cabinet is composed of a cover box 11 located in the upper part and a U-shaped channel box body 12 located in the lower part. One end of the cover box is hinged to the hinge seat 122 at the upper end of the U-shaped channel box body through a hinge shaft 118 so that the cover box can be turned upward. The ultraviolet sterilization lamps are arranged on the cover box, and a heat dissipation mechanism is arranged above the ultraviolet sterilization lamps on the cover box to discharge the heat generated inside the cabinet.

[0027] In this embodiment, the egg conveying mechanism includes two parallel conveying chains driven by a driving mechanism to rotate. Support rollers or support rods are installed between the corresponding chain links of the two conveying chains. The distance between two adjacent support rollers or support rods is less than the diameter of the egg so that the egg is supported on the upper side between the two support rollers or support rods. This egg conveying mechanism is prior art. Support plates 121 for supporting the chains are horizontally arranged on both side walls of the U-shaped channel box body of the cabinet to ensure the stable conveyance of the eggs in the section inside the cabinet.

[0028] In this embodiment, in order to better install the ultraviolet sterilization lamps, a plurality of ultraviolet sterilization lamps are longitudinally installed and arranged on the bottom surface of the cover box along the horizontal direction and evenly distributed above the egg conveying mechanism inside the cabinet. An installation seat 21 for installing two ultraviolet sterilization lamps is arranged on one side wall of the U-shaped channel box body. A hanging buckle 30 for clamping the other end of the ultraviolet sterilization lamp is arranged at the top of the other side of the cabinet to prevent the other end of the ultraviolet sterilization lamp from hanging in the air.

[0029] In this embodiment, in order to better install the hanging buckle, the upper end of the hanging buckle is provided with a clamping end that is clamped with a clamping hole 111 arranged on the bottom plate of the cover box. The lower part of the hanging buckle has an insertion plate 31 inserted between two ultraviolet sterilization lamps. Elastic anti-detachment clamping plates 32 are arranged on the front and rear sides of the insertion plate and located below the ultraviolet sterilization lamps to clamp the two ultraviolet sterilization lamps and prevent the other end of the ultraviolet sterilization lamp from hanging in the air.

[0030] In this embodiment, two curtain cloths 112 are vertically hung at the front end and the rear end of the hood box and are located above the egg conveying mechanism. The curtain cloth is a flexible curtain cloth that prevents ultraviolet rays and is heat-resistant, which not only facilitates the eggs to enter the cabinet, but also helps to avoid the leakage of ultraviolet rays.

[0031] In this embodiment, in order to make the hood box flip better, air springs 113 are hinged to the outer walls on both sides of the hood box. The air springs are inclined and the lower ends are hinged to the upper part of the cabinet. Gripping handles 114 are arranged outside both sides of the other end of the hood box, so that when the hood box is lifted upward through the gripping handles, the air springs assist the hood box to flip upward, reducing the force required for lifting.

[0032] In this embodiment, the heat dissipation mechanism includes an air outlet 115 arranged on the bottom plate of the hood box, an exhaust fan 116 is installed above the air outlet, and a plurality of heat dissipation openings 117 are evenly distributed on both sides of the hood box, so as to discharge heat.

[0033] In this embodiment, in order to better receive the broken eggs, the broken egg collection device includes a broken egg receiving tray (not shown in the figure) arranged at the lower part of the U-shaped channel box body of the cabinet. Broken egg receiving guide plates 41 are inclinedly arranged on the upper sides of the front end and the rear end of the broken egg receiving tray, so that the dropped eggs can be guided into the broken egg receiving tray through the broken egg receiving guide plates for collection.

[0034] In this embodiment, guide rails 42 for supporting the broken egg receiving tray are arranged on both side walls of the U-shaped channel box body of the cabinet, so that the broken egg receiving tray can be taken out and replaced after collecting the broken eggs.

[0035] If the present utility model discloses or involves components or structural parts that are fixedly connected to each other, then, unless otherwise stated, the fixed connection can be understood as: a detachable fixed connection (for example, connected by bolts or screws), or can also be understood as: a non-detachable fixed connection (for example, riveting, welding). Of course, the mutual fixed connection can also be replaced by an integral structure (for example, manufactured by integral casting process) (except when it is obviously impossible to adopt the integral forming process).

[0036] In addition, the terms used to represent the positional relationship or shape in any of the technical solutions disclosed in the present utility model, unless otherwise stated, include states or shapes that are approximate, similar or close to it.

[0037] Any component provided by the present utility model can either be assembled from a plurality of separate components or be a single component manufactured by an integral forming process.

[0038] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made according to the scope of the patent application of the present utility model shall fall within the scope covered by the present utility model.
