[0002] 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. Color sorters are used in the fields of bulk material or packaged industrial product and food quality inspection and grading. The optoelectronic color sorter is a non-destructive sorting device used for the quality inspection and grading of bulk materials, and has a wide range of applications in industries such as grain, food, pigment, and chemical industry.

A cleaning mechanism is arranged inside the color sorter. The cleaning mechanism includes a slide rail, a pulley, a filter plate, a spring, a filter screen, a fixing bolt, and a cylinder. During the process of the color sorter sorting rice, the cylinder is used to drive the filter plate to move, the moving position of the filter plate can be limited, and under the telescopic and resetting action of the spring, the spring is used to drive the filter plate to reciprocate and shake. The filter screen is used to filter and clean the dust, so as to avoid generating a large amount of dust during the process of sorting rice, and the dust will mix into the rice, which will affect the quality of rice sorting, and then cause the quality of rice to decline, resulting in a low price of rice, and the rice needs to be re-sorted.
[0004] During the long-term operation of traditional color sorters, a large amount of dust, impurities, and particles often adhere to the surface of the feeding plate. These attachments not only affect the sorting accuracy and efficiency of the color sorter, but may also enter the sorting process together with the feeding materials, resulting in a decline in product quality. However, when performing dust cleaning work, there are mostly problems of incomplete dust cleaning effect and low automation degree. For this reason, the utility model provides a dust cleaning mechanism for a color sorter. Content of the Utility Model

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a dust cleaning mechanism for a color sorter, including the main body of the frame 1, and a dust cleaning mechanism for material transportation is arranged above the main body of the frame 1. The dust cleaning mechanism includes:
[0025] Cleaning component, including a feed rack 2 provided at the upper end of the frame body 1. A connecting shaft 201 is provided at the edge of the lower end surface of the feed rack 2. A blanking plate 202 is connected to the outer wall of the connecting shaft 201. A fixed rod 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame body 1. A slide rail bracket 301 is fixedly connected to the end of the fixed rod 3. A slide bar 302 is slidably connected inside the slide rail bracket 301. A brush bracket 303 is provided at the front end of the slide bar 302. A block is provided on the outer wall of the slide bar 302 to slide with the inner wall groove of the slide rail bracket 301. The brush bracket 303 at the front end of the slide bar 302 is located on the surface of the blanking plate 202, which is used to clean the blanking plate 202 after long-term work, and can effectively remove the dust, impurities and possibly accumulated particles attached to it.
[0026] Vibrating component, including a motor 4 fixedly connected to the edge of the inner wall of the frame body 1. The output end of the motor 4 is connected to a drive shaft 401. The end of the drive shaft 401 is connected to a cam 402, and the cam 402 is located on the lower end surface of the blanking plate 202. When performing the dust cleaning work, the provided cam 402 rotates under the action of the motor 4 through the drive shaft 401, and the cam 402 contacts the inner wall of the blanking plate 202. When the cam 402 rotates, it can make the blanking plate 202 perform a slight shaking work along the connecting shaft 201 on the lower end surface of the feed rack 2, effectively loosening and shaking off the dust, impurities and fine particles attached to the surface of the blanking plate 202.
[0027] In a preferred embodiment, a connecting rod 5 is connected to the rear end of the slide bar 302. First rotating shafts 501 are provided on both sides of the connecting rod 5. A transmission rod 502 is connected to the outer wall of the first rotating shaft 501. A rotating rod 503 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the drive shaft 401. A second rotating shaft 504 is provided at the end of the rotating rod 503. The provided rotating rod 503 is rotatably connected to the transmission rod 502 through the second rotating shaft 504, and the slide bar 302 and the connecting rod 5 are rotatably connected to the transmission rod 502 through the first rotating shaft 501. When the drive shaft 401 drives the rotating rod 503 to rotate, the slide bar 302 is reciprocally slid inside the slide rail bracket 301, thereby driving the brush bracket 303 to clean the dust on the surface of the blanking plate 202, which can effectively remove the dust, impurities and possibly accumulated particles attached to it, avoiding the dust on the surface from being sorted together with the blanking material during the next use and affecting the use effect, and greatly improving the work efficiency through the automated dust cleaning work.
[0028] In a preferred embodiment, a support plate 7 is fixedly connected to the rear side wall of the feeding frame 2. A shock-absorbing spring 701 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the support plate 7. A damping support rod 702 is arranged inside the shock-absorbing spring 701. A limiting block 8 is fixedly connected to the opening of the lower end surface of the feeding frame 2. A rubber plate 801 is fixedly connected to the surface of the limiting block 8. When the drive shaft 401 realizes the reciprocating dust cleaning work of the brush support 303, it simultaneously drives the rotation of the cam 402 to realize the work of jittering the blanking plate 202, which helps to loosen and shake off deeper impurities during cleaning, improving the cleaning effect. When the blanking plate 202 jitters upward, it is limited by the rubber plate 801 on the surface of the limiting block 8 to prevent the jitter amplitude from being too large. Then when the jittering blanking plate 202 falls, it undergoes shock absorption and buffering on the support plate 7 through the shock-absorbing spring 701 and the damping support rod 702, reducing the direct impact between the blanking plate 202 and the support plate 7 and extending the service life of the equipment.
[0029] In a preferred embodiment, threaded bolts 6 for disassembling the brush support 303 are arranged on both sides of the sliding rod 302. A color sorter main body 9 is arranged inside the frame main body 1, and the color sorter main body 9 is located below the blanking plate 202 for screening the falling materials. The arranged brush support 303 can be disassembled and replaced through the threaded bolts 6. By replacing the brush support 303 with different models or materials, the cleaning effect and applicable range of the color sorter can be adjusted.
[0030] Meanwhile, the content not detailedly described in this specification belongs to the well-known prior art in the art.
[0031] During operation, the materials are fed into the color sorter main body 9 through the feeding frame 2 and the blanking plate 202 for screening the falling materials. Then when the drive shaft 401 drives the rotating rod 503 to rotate, the sliding rod 302 is reciprocally slid inside the slide rail support 301, thereby driving the brush support 303 to perform dust cleaning work along the surface of the blanking plate 202, which can effectively remove the dust, impurities and possibly accumulated particles attached to it.
[0032] When the drive shaft 401 realizes the reciprocating dust cleaning work of the brush support 303, it simultaneously drives the rotation of the cam 402 to realize the work of jittering the blanking plate 202, which helps to loosen and shake off deeper impurities during cleaning, improving the cleaning effect. When the blanking plate 202 jitters upward, it is limited by the rubber plate 801 on the surface of the limiting block 8 to prevent the jitter amplitude from being too large. Then when the jittering blanking plate 202 falls, it undergoes shock absorption and buffering on the support plate 7 through the shock-absorbing spring 701 and the damping support rod 702, reducing the direct impact between the blanking plate 202 and the support plate 7 and extending the service life of the equipment.
