Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of egg storage, in particular to an egg storage and preservation cabinet. Background Art
[0002] Eggs are fresh food that is fragile and easy to break. They are prone to spoilage if stored for too long, so they need to be stored with care. Chinese patent publication No. CN213293242U discloses an egg storage box. When users take eggs from the egg storage box, they do not need to open the lid of the box. They only need to take the eggs out from the slanted opening. After the eggs are taken out, the eggs arranged in an orderly manner on the upper side will automatically roll along the inclined arc-shaped groove until the first egg below contacts the side wall of the slanted opening. At the same time, the eggs in the egg storage box automatically roll in the order they are placed. The first egg in the box is taken out first, which can avoid confusion between new and old eggs and ensure the freshness of the eggs.
[0003] First, when placing the eggs in the above-mentioned egg storage box, the eggs need to be placed horizontally in the box to facilitate rolling out, but this method is not conducive to the preservation and storage of eggs.

The baffle 4001 is slidably connected to the fixing slot 4005. When the conveyor belt 3003 stops moving, the fixing hole 40 is aligned with the storage box 3004. At this time, the baffle 4001 is opened to take out the items.
[0044] Specifically, the working principle of this egg storage cabinet is as follows:
[0045] When in use, first open the cabinet door 20 and place the eggs vertically with the big end facing upward and the pointed end facing downward in the storage box 3004. After placing the eggs, close the cabinet door 20 and open the cabinet door 20 to store new eggs. When the infrared sensor 3107 detects the eggs, the motor 3102 will not start. At this time, one of the storage boxes 3004 is aligned with the fixing hole 40. When it is necessary to take out the eggs, just rotate the operating rod 4002 to move it out of the card slot 4004 and push the baffle 4001 into the fixing slot 4005. Then, the eggs can be taken out from the fixing hole 40, which can prevent the cabinet door 20 from opening and causing a large number of eggs to come into contact with the outside world. At the same time, the baffle 4001 can be closed when the eggs are not in use to prevent the eggs from coming into contact with food or items with pungent odors, which is beneficial to improving the freshness preservation effect of the eggs. When the eggs in the storage box 3004 facing the fixing hole 40 are taken out, Afterwards, at this time, the infrared sensor 3107 cannot detect the eggs. At this time, the infrared sensor 3107 sends a signal to the controller 3108, and the controller 3108 starts the motor 3102. The motor 3102 drives the movable rod 3103 to rotate, and drives the gear ring 31 to rotate. Under the action of the gear ring 31, the two gears 3101 rotate, and drive the two rotating rods 3001 to rotate. At this time, the rotating wheel 3002 rotates under the action of the rotating rod 3001, and finally drives the conveyor belt 3003 to rotate until the next storage box 3004 rotates to near the fixed hole 40. At this time, the infrared sensor 3107 detects the eggs again and sends a signal to the controller 3108. At this time, the conveyor belt 3003 will stop moving, which is convenient for taking the eggs. The eggs can be put in first and taken out first, avoiding confusion between new and old eggs, ensuring the freshness of the eggs, and improving the preservation effect of the eggs.
[0046] It should be noted that the specific models and specifications of the motor 3102, infrared sensor 3107, and controller 3108 need to be selected and determined based on the actual specifications of the device. The specific selection calculation method adopts the existing technology in this field, so it will not be described in detail.
[0047] The power supply and principles of the motor 3102, infrared sensor 3107, and controller 3108 are clear to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.
