Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of Wogan fruit selection structures, and particularly relates to a classification device for Wogan processing. Background Art

[0002] The Wogan (Wogan) is a hybrid citrus fruit, a spring orange. Its shape is primarily spherical or nearly spherical, with a smooth, glossy surface. After harvesting, the Wogans are sorted by size, allowing those of uniform size to be packaged and sold.

[0003] In the prior art, mandarin oranges are primarily sorted using a mandarin orange sorting device. For example, patent publication number CN220387185U discloses a mandarin orange sorting device that is less prone to clogging. The device includes mandarin orange sorting equipment, which includes a housing with anti-clogging mechanisms installed on the sides and interior of the housing. The anti-clogging mechanism includes a cylinder, a first sorting frame, a second sorting frame, and a third sorting frame. A toothed plate is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder. In this mandarin orange sorting device, a worker activates the cylinder, which drives the toothed plate to move. The toothed plate's movement drives the gear to rotate. The gear's rotation drives the rotating shaft, which drives the rotating plate. The rotating plate's rotation drives the spring, which in turn drives the slider. When the slider is not in contact with the drop chute, it compresses the spring to deform. When the slider contacts the drop chute, the spring recovers its deformation, pushing the slider forward. The slider's movement pushes away mandarins stuck in the drop chute, thereby preventing clogging and improving mandarin orange sorting efficiency.

[0004] Although the above device discloses a structure for sorting mandarin oranges that is not prone to clogging, it does not disclose the loading structure of mandarin oranges. Moreover, the anti-clogging mechanism is relatively complex and has a high manufacturing cost. In view of this, it is necessary to design a sorting device that is convenient for loading mandarin oranges and prevents clogging. Utility Model Content
