It can also be adapted to the transportation of nuts of different sizes and types and has a wide range of applications.

[0030] Next, the nut conveyor in this exemplary embodiment will be further described.

[0031] In the embodiment of the present application, the hopper 200 is located above the vibrating plate 300 and is used to feed the material to the vibrating plate 300 below. A feed port 210 is provided on the top of the hopper 200, and a discharge port 220 is provided on one side of the hopper 200. A height adjustment plate 230 is provided on the side wall of the hopper 200 above the discharge port 220. The height adjustment plate 230 is slidably connected to the side wall of the hopper 200 above the discharge port 220. Specifically, two waist holes are provided on the side wall of the hopper 200. The height adjustment plate 230 is tightly attached to the side wall of the hopper 200 and is locked by a locking member that is passed through the waist hole. The locking member can be a locking bolt. When the height of the height adjustment plate 230 needs to be adjusted, the locking member can be loosened and moved up and down along the waist hole to adjust it. By setting a height adjustment plate 230, the size of the discharge port 220 can be adjusted, and then the discharge quantity of nuts can be adjusted. It can be adjusted according to the number of nuts in the vibration plate 300 below to avoid excessive accumulation of nuts in the nut vibration plate 300 and clogging the discharge chute 310.

[0032] As an example, the hopper 200 is provided with a discharge bin 240 extending outward from one side of the discharge port 220. A push-pull plate 250 is slidably provided at the bottom of the discharge bin 240. An inclined bottom plate 260 is provided at the bottom of the hopper 200, with the inclined bottom of the bottom plate 260 close to the upper surface of the push-pull plate 250. By providing a horizontal discharge bin 240 on the side of the discharge port 220 of the hopper 200, the discharge speed can be slowed down and the impact of the nuts on the vibrating plate 300 during discharge can be reduced. By providing a push-pull plate 250 in the discharge bin 240, when nuts accumulate and get stuck at the discharge port 220, the push-pull plate 250 can be pushed to assist in unloading. By providing the bottom of the hopper 200 with an inclined bottom plate 260, unloading can be facilitated.

[0033] In the embodiment of the present application, the vibration plate 300 is provided with a discharge chute 310, and the discharge chute 310 is connected to the slide 410 of the distributor 400. Through the vibration of the vibration plate 300, the nuts pass through the discharge chute 310 and enter the slide 410 of the distributor 400. The distributor 400 includes a slide 410 and a distribution cylinder group 440. A cover plate 420 is provided on the top of the slide 410. The cover plate 420 is connected to the slide 410 in an adjustable manner so that the distance between the cover plate 420 and the slide 410 is adjustable. The cover plate 420 presses the nuts on the slide 410 to prevent the nuts from overlapping or jumping out. The adjustable cover plate 420 makes the conveyor adaptable to the conveying of nuts of different sizes and types. The slide 410 is provided with a sensor 430 at one end close to the discharge chute 310. The sensor 430 is used to detect the nuts fed into the slide 410. When the sensor 430 detects that the number of nuts in the slide 410 has reached the standard, the vibrating plate 300 stops to prevent the nuts from continuously sliding into the slide 410 and affecting the conveying of the nuts. The slide 410 is provided with a material pipe clamp 460 at one end away from the discharge chute 310. The material pipe clamp 460 is used to clamp the conveying material pipe, that is, the nuts fed into the bottom of the slide 410 are then sent to the designated position for assembly through the conveying material pipe. The distribution cylinder group 440 is provided on the slide 410 between the sensor 430 and the material pipe clamp 460. The distribution cylinder group 440 is used to distribute the nuts; the distribution cylinder group 440 releases one nut at a time into the bottom of the slide 410 to prevent excessive nuts from affecting subsequent conveying.

[0034] As an example, the slide 410 is U-shaped, and the cover plate 420 includes two movable plates 421, which are connected to the inner wall of the slide 410, and the distance between the two movable plates 421 is smaller than the distance between the two side walls of the slide 410, so that the cover plate 420 can press the nut. The bottom of the inner wall of the slide 410 can be slightly narrowed inward, such as Figure 5 As shown, the nuts can be limited so that the conveying of multiple nuts is located on the same axis without deviation as much as possible.

[0035] As an example, the side wall of the slide 410 defines a first waist hole 411, and the movable plate 421 defines a first connecting hole 422 corresponding to the first waist hole 411. The first waist hole 411 and the first connecting hole 422 are connected by a first locking member. The first locking member can be a locking bolt. With this structural design, the movable plate 421 can move up and down along the first waist hole 411 in the side wall of the slide 410. After adjusting to the appropriate position, tighten the locking bolt to secure it.

[0036] As an example, the distribution cylinder assembly 440 is connected to the side wall of the slide 410 via a first connecting plate 442. The first connecting plate 442 is in an inverted L-shape, and a second waist hole 443 is defined in the vertical plate of the first connecting plate 442. The side wall of the slide 410 is defined with a second connecting hole 423 corresponding to the second waist hole 443. The second waist hole 443 and the second connecting hole 423 are connected by a second locking member; the second locking member can be a locking bolt, which operates on the same adjustment principle as the movable plate 421. The first connecting plate 442 and the waist hole structure allow the distribution cylinder assembly 440 to be adjusted in height on the slide 410, thereby adapting to the distribution of nuts of different sizes.

[0037] The distribution cylinder assembly 440 includes two distribution cylinders 441, which are arranged side by side on the transverse plate of the first connecting plate 442 and directly above the slideway 410. The two distribution cylinders 441 cooperate with each other to ensure that the nuts on the slideway 410 are arranged in a sequential order and slide downward, improving the regularity of nut delivery and thus improving delivery efficiency.

[0038] As an example, the sensor 430 is connected to the side wall of the slide 410 through a second connecting plate 431, the second connecting plate 431 is L-shaped, and the vertical plate of the second connecting plate 431 is provided with a third waist hole 432, and the side wall of the slide 410 is provided with a third connecting hole 424 corresponding to the third waist hole 432. The third waist hole 432 and the third connecting hole 424 are connected through a third locking member, and the third locking member can be a locking bolt, which has the same adjustment principle as the movable plate 421 and the same principle as the adjustment of the distribution cylinder group 440. The sensor 430 is connected to the slide 410 through a second connecting plate 431 with adjustable height. The height of the sensor 430 can be adjusted to avoid the sensor 430 obstructing the nuts when conveying larger nuts.

[0039] As an example, the dispenser 400 further includes a bracket 450, one end of which is connected to the bottom of the slide 410, and the other end of which is connected to the rack 100. The bracket 450 includes a first bracket 451 and a second bracket 452, one end of the first bracket 451 is connected to the bottom of the slide 410, one end of the second bracket 452 is connected to the rack 100, and the other end of the first bracket 451 is rotatably connected to the other end of the second bracket 452 and locked by a fourth locking member, wherein the fourth locking member can be a structure such as a fixing clip or a bolt. By providing the first bracket 451 and the second bracket 452 that are rotatably connected, the inclination angle of the first bracket 451 and the second bracket 452 can be adjusted according to actual needs, thereby adjusting the inclination angle of the slide 410 to achieve the best effect of nut transportation.

[0040] As an example, an electric control box 500 is provided under the frame 100 , and the electric control box 500 is connected to the sensor 430 , the vibration plate 300 and each cylinder, and is used to control the operation of electronic components such as the vibration plate 300 and each cylinder.

Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments and all changes and modifications that fall within the scope of the present invention.

[0042] Finally, it should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as first and second, etc., are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or terminal device that includes a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or terminal device.
