Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fruit and vegetable sorting components, in particular to an anti-stuck fruit tray component. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the development of agricultural technology and the improvement of people's living standards, there are more and more varieties of fruits and vegetables both domestically and internationally, and people have higher requirements for the quality of fruits and vegetables. In order to improve the processing quality and factory grade of fruits and vegetables, fruits and vegetables need to be strictly graded by quality and size. Manual fruit and vegetable sorting has the problems of high labor intensity, low productivity and unstable sorting accuracy. Fruit and vegetable sorting is difficult to achieve fast, accurate and non-destructive sorting, which requires the use of fruit and vegetable sorting machines. According to different fruit and vegetable testing indicators, fruit and vegetable sorting machines can be divided into size sorting machines, weight sorting machines, appearance quality sorting machines and internal quality sorting machines.

[0003] Fruit and vegetable sorting machines require a fruit and vegetable sorting tray to perform functions such as single-row arrangement, weighing, photographing, and sorting. Existing fruit and vegetable sorting trays include a rotating shaft with two cup wheels mounted on it, separated by a gap. Visual inspection is required during the sorting process, and to ensure multi-angle photography, the cup wheels rotate to drive the fruit and vegetables. During this rotation, for example, the fruit stem can easily get stuck in the gap between the two cup wheels, preventing the fruit and vegetables from rotating properly and affecting inspection accuracy.

[0006] The cup wheel assembly comprises a rotating shaft, both ends of which are rotatably mounted on the base, two cup wheels are sleeved on the rotating shaft, and an intermediate wheel is provided between the two cup wheels.

[0007] Furthermore, the intermediate wheel includes an inner ring and an outer ring. The inner wall of the outer ring is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed reinforcing ribs along the radial direction. The reinforcing ribs are arranged through the inner ring. An outer arc plate connecting the two reinforcing ribs is provided between the outer ring and the inner ring. The inner wall of the inner ring is provided with an inner arc plate connecting the two reinforcing ribs.

[0008] The outer ring is provided with a convex ring, and the outer surface of the convex ring is provided with an arc-shaped concave surface.

[0009] Furthermore, the rotating shaft includes a shaft body, two first convex rings and two second convex rings are provided outside the shaft body, the two second convex rings are located in the middle of the shaft body, and the first convex ring is located outside the second convex rings; the intermediate wheel sleeve is provided on the two second convex rings, a groove is formed between the first convex ring and the second convex ring, and the cup wheel is clamped on the groove.

[0010] Furthermore, the outer ring of the cup wheel includes a smooth section and an inclined section that are integrally arranged. The smooth section is closer to the intermediate wheel in the axial direction relative to the inclined section, and the diameter of the smooth section is larger than the diameter of the inclined section. The diameter of the inclined section decreases axially from the smooth section toward the intermediate wheel.

[0011] Furthermore, the transverse bracket is a U-shaped metal bracket, and the metal bracket passes through the upper part of the mounting foot.

[0012] Furthermore, the two cup wheels are mounted on both ends of the intermediate wheel.

[0013] Furthermore, a through hole is provided on the outer arc-shaped plate.

For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections, electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through an intermediate medium, and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 7The anti-stuck fruit tray assembly shown includes a mounting foot 1 installed on the conveyor chain of the fruit and vegetable sorting machine, a transverse bracket 2 is installed on the upper part of the mounting foot 1, and a base 3 for placing fruits and vegetables is clamped on the transverse bracket 2, and the base 3 is supported on the transverse bracket 2; a cup wheel assembly 4 is rotatably mounted on the front side of the base 3, and a baffle 10 for supporting fruits and vegetables is provided on the rear side of the base 3; the cup wheel assembly 4 includes a rotating shaft 6, both ends of the rotating shaft 6 are rotatably mounted on the base 3, two cup wheels 5 are sleeved on the rotating shaft 6, and an intermediate wheel 7 is provided between the two cup wheels 5.

[0030] The intermediate wheel 7 includes an inner ring 72 and an outer ring 71. The inner wall of the outer ring 71 is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed reinforcing ribs 73 along the radial direction. The reinforcing ribs 73 are arranged through the inner ring 72. An outer arc-shaped plate 74 connecting the two reinforcing ribs 73 is provided between the outer ring 71 and the inner ring 72. An inner arc-shaped plate 75 connecting the two reinforcing ribs 73 is provided on the inner wall of the inner ring 72. The outer ring 71 is provided with a convex ring 77, and the outer surface of the convex ring 77 is provided with an arc-shaped concave surface.

[0031] The rotating shaft 6 includes a shaft body, and two first convex rings 8 and two second convex rings 9 are provided outside the shaft body. The two second convex rings 9 are located in the middle of the shaft body, and the first convex ring 8 is located outside the second convex ring 9; the intermediate wheel 7 is sleeved on the two second convex rings 9, and a groove is formed between the first convex ring 8 and the second convex ring 9, and the cup wheel 5 is clamped on the groove.

[0032] The outer ring of the cup wheel 5 includes an integrally arranged smooth section 51 and an inclined section 52. The smooth section 51 is closer to the intermediate wheel 7 in the axial direction relative to the inclined section 52, and the diameter of the smooth section 51 is larger than the diameter of the inclined section 52.

[0037] like Figure 8As shown, during the rotation of the cup wheel assembly 4 (including the cup wheels 5 and the intermediate wheel 7), the fruits and vegetables are also rotated. The intermediate wheel 7 is provided between the two cup wheels 5, filling the gap between the two cup wheels 5 and increasing the friction force. As a result, if the fruit and vegetable stems are aligned in the middle during the rotation, the angle of the fruit and vegetable will be deflected, causing the stems to shift in direction and just avoid the baffle 10 of the fruit tray. In this way, the fruits and vegetables can rotate normally on the fruit tray and undergo normal visual inspection, ensuring the accuracy of the inspection.

[0038] In summary, the utility model has a reasonable design and is easy to operate. It prevents the phenomenon that fruits and vegetables are stuck and do not rotate during the detection process, thereby affecting the detection results, ensures normal rotation of fruits and vegetables during the detection process, and improves the accuracy of detection.

[0039] The above description only describes the specific implementation methods of the utility model. Various examples do not limit the essential content of the utility model. Ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field can make modifications or deformations to the specific implementation methods described above after reading the description without departing from the essence and scope of the utility model.
