[0033] The two ends of the connecting block 5 are respectively welded to the lower end surface of the supporting platform 1 and the upper end surface of the conveying shell 3, so that they can be relatively fixed;
[0034] The conveying mechanism is provided in the conveying housing 3 and is used to convey the rice;
[0035] The discharge port 6 is symmetrically formed on the lower wall of the conveying shell 3;
[0036] Under the action of the conveying mechanism, the rice in the conveying shell 3 can be conveyed and then discharged from the discharge port 6;
[0037] The material receiving trolley 7 is located below the material outlet 6;
[0038] The collecting vehicle 7 can collect the rice flowing out of the discharge port 6;
[0039] A handle is welded on one end surface of the material receiving trolley 7 to facilitate the staff to push the material receiving trolley 7.
[0040] Specifically, the conveying mechanism includes:
[0041] The rotating shaft 8 is rotatably mounted in the conveying shell 3;
[0042] The spiral conveying blade 9 is provided on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 8;
[0043] The spiral conveying blade 9 is welded to the outer surface of the rotating shaft 8, so that the rotating shaft 8 can drive the spiral conveying blade 9 to rotate simultaneously;
[0044] The driving member 10 is provided on the outer wall surface of the conveying shell 3, and the output end is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 8;
[0045] The driving member 10 is a three-phase motor, which is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the conveying shell 3. The rotation of the output end can drive the rotating shaft 8 to rotate at the same time.
[0046] Specifically, a controller 11 and an alarm 12 are respectively installed on the upper end surface of the support platform 1, the alarm 12 is electrically connected to the controller 11, the driving member 10 is electrically connected to the controller 11, an infrared transmitter 13 is fixedly installed on the upper end of one end surface inside the receiving car 7, and an infrared receiver 14 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the receiving car 7 away from the infrared transmitter 13, and the infrared transmitter 13 and the infrared receiver 14 are both electrically connected to the controller 11;
[0047] When the height of the rice accumulation in the receiving cart 7 blocks the infrared rays emitted by the infrared transmitter 13 and the infrared receiver 14 cannot receive the infrared rays, the infrared transmitter 13 and the infrared receiver 14 transmit an electrical signal to the controller 11. At this time, the controller 11 controls the driving member 10 to rotate in the opposite direction to discharge the rice in the conveying shell 3 from the other discharge port 6. At the same time, the controller 11 transmits an electrical signal to the alarm 12 to start the alarm 12 and generate a sound alarm to remind the staff, so that the staff can push the full receiving cart 7 away for unloading.
[0048] Specifically, the lower end surface of the conveying shell 3 is provided with a limit plate 15 for limiting the position of the receiving vehicle 7;
[0049] The limiting plate 15 is welded to the lower end surface of the conveying shell 3 , which can limit the receiving trolley 7 and facilitate the staff to push the receiving trolley 7 to the bottom of the discharge port 6 .

At the same time, the guide block 17 is a conical guide block and is welded to the outer surface of the fixed rod 16. It can guide the rice flowing out of the discharge port 6 to prevent the rice from piling up too high in the middle.
[0052] Working principle: First, the staff adds rice to the color sorter 2. At this time, the staff operates the controller 11 to start the driving part 10. After the color sorter 2 processes the rice, it falls from the discharge pipe 4 into the conveying shell 3. At this time, the driving part 10 drives the rotating shaft 8 and the spiral conveying blade 9 to rotate to convey the rice, so that the rice falls from a discharge port 6 to the receiving car 7 below. When the rice falls, the guide block 17 can guide the rice flowing out of the discharge port 6 to prevent the rice from piling up too high in the middle. When the height of the rice pile is too high for the infrared When the infrared rays emitted by the transmitter 13 are blocked and the infrared receiver 14 cannot receive the infrared rays, the infrared transmitter 13 and the infrared receiver 14 transmit an electrical signal to the controller 11. At this time, the controller 11 controls the driving member 10 to rotate in the opposite direction, and discharges the rice in the conveying shell 3 from another discharge port 6. At the same time, the controller 11 transmits an electrical signal to the alarm 12, so that the alarm 12 is activated and generates a sound alarm to remind the staff, making it convenient for the staff to push the receiving cart 7 away and unload the materials, bringing convenience to people.
