Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of potato processing, in particular to a potato harvesting, screening and grading device. Background Art
[0002] Potatoes are a high-quality crop and the fourth most important food crop in the world. During the potato harvest season, in order to facilitate subsequent sales, the harvested potatoes need to be screened and potatoes of different sizes need to be graded and screened out. In the past, this was done manually, but with the development of society, corresponding equipment has been developed to replace manual screening. Among them, the roller sorting machine is a more frequently used sorting equipment today. It changes the spacing between the rollers so that potatoes of different sizes fall from the gap between the rollers while being transported, achieving graded screening.
[0003] A search revealed an existing patent (Announcement No. CN213644809U) that discloses a seed potato grading and screening device. The device comprises a base plate and multiple screening mechanisms mounted on the base plate. The height of the multiple screening mechanisms gradually decreases from one end of the base plate to the other. Each screening mechanism has an identical structure, comprising two parallel, spaced-apart sliding bars. Multiple sleeves are slidably mounted on each sliding bar. Multiple screening bars are spaced parallel and spaced between the two sliding bars. The ends of the screening bars are positioned at the tops of corresponding sleeves. A drive mechanism for moving the screening bars is mounted on a bracket below the sliding bars. This device allows the diameter of the seed potatoes to be adjusted as needed, offering excellent adaptability, a smooth screening process, high efficiency, and effective screening and grading results. It possesses significant economic and social value.
[0004] However, in the above scheme, it is inconvenient to guide and level the material. During the loading process, it is easy to load too much material, resulting in accumulation of potato materials. Smaller potatoes may accumulate on larger potatoes, which will make it impossible to screen out the smaller potatoes in time, affecting the quality of grading and screening.
[0005] In view of this, the utility model proposes a potato harvesting, screening and grading device. Utility Model Content

[0026] The following will be combined with the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Example 1
[0027] The preferred embodiment of the potato harvesting, screening and grading device provided by the present invention is as follows: Figures 1 to 5 As shown: a potato harvesting, screening and grading device, including a roller-type sorting machine body 5; a controller 6 fixedly connected to the upper end of the front side of the roller-type sorting machine body 5, and a roller body 7 is provided on the inner wall of the roller-type sorting machine body 5; a discharge rack 8 fixedly connected to the lower end of the inside of the roller-type sorting machine body 5 at equal intervals, and a discharge conveyor belt 9 is provided inside the discharge rack 8, and a discharge hopper 4 extending to the outside of the roller-type sorting machine body 5 is fixedly connected to one end of the discharge rack 8; a guide component 1 assembled on one side of the top of the roller-type sorting machine body 5, and the guide component 1 is used to avoid excessive accumulation of potatoes for screening operations; a fixed plate 3 fixedly connected to the upper end of one side of the roller-type sorting machine body 5; a movable feeding seat 2 arranged above the fixed plate 3; a shock-absorbing component 10 assembled on the fixed plate 3 at equal intervals, and the shock-absorbing component 10 is used to buffer and reduce shock to the movable feeding seat 2 to reduce hard collision between potatoes and the movable feeding seat 2.
[0028] The guide assembly 1 includes: a fixed groove 103 opened at the upper end of one side of the inner wall of the roller-type sorting machine body 5; a threaded rod 102 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed groove 103, and a rotating handle 105 extending to the outside of the fixed groove 103 is fixedly connected to the top of the threaded rod 102; a threaded block 104 threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rod 102; and a guide plate 101 fixedly connected to one end of the threaded block 104.
[0029] It should be noted that the existing potato harvesting, screening and grading device still has certain shortcomings in actual use. During the loading process, it is easy to overload, resulting in accumulation of potato materials. Smaller potatoes may accumulate on larger potatoes, which will make it impossible to screen out the smaller potatoes in time, affecting the grading and screening quality.
[0030] In this embodiment, the threaded rod 102 is rotated by rotating the handle 105, so that the threaded block 104 slides and drives the guide plate 101 to slide up and down, thereby changing the distance between the bottom end of the guide plate 101 and the surface of the roller body 7 to an appropriate distance. Thereafter, when the potatoes are graded and screened, a smaller number of potatoes can be transported and sorted through the gap between the guide plate 101 and the roller body 7, thereby avoiding the accumulation of potatoes due to excessive feeding, which in turn causes the embarrassment of some smaller potatoes not being screened and separated from the roller-type sorting machine body 5 in time.
[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the lower end of the guide plate 101 is in the shape of an isosceles triangle, and the width of the guide plate 101 is smaller than the width of the interior of the roller-type sorting machine body 5 .
[0032] In this embodiment, the guide plate 101 having an isosceles triangle at its lower end is used to reduce the contact area between the bottom end of the guide plate 101 and the potatoes, making it easier for the potatoes to pass under the guide plate 101 . Example 2
[0033] On the basis of Example 1, the preferred embodiment of the potato harvesting, screening and grading device provided by the present invention is as follows: Figures 1 to 5 As shown: the shock absorbing assembly 10 includes: shock absorbing grooves 1001 arranged at equal intervals at the top of the fixed plate 3; a damper 1003 fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the shock absorbing groove 1001; a sliding block 1004 fixedly connected to the top of the damper 1003; a shock absorbing spring 1002 wound around the surface of the damper 1003, and the two ends of the shock absorbing spring 1002 are respectively fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the shock absorbing groove 1001 and the bottom end of the sliding block 1004; a sliding column 1005 fixedly connected to the top of the sliding block 1004, and the top of the sliding column 1005 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the movable loading seat 2.
[0034] In this embodiment, the impact force of the falling potatoes will cause the movable loading seat 2 to descend. At this time, the shock-absorbing spring 1002 is used to absorb the falling impact force, and the damper 1003 is used to consume the elastic potential energy absorbed by the compression of the shock-absorbing spring 1002, thereby slowing down the descending amplitude of the movable loading seat 2 and realizing buffering and shock absorption between the movable loading seat 2 and the potatoes.
[0035] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a sliding structure is formed between the sliding block 1004 and the interior of the shock absorbing groove 1001 , and the cross-section of the shock absorbing groove 1001 and the sliding block 1004 is in a cross shape.
[0036] In this embodiment, the sliding of the cross-shaped sliding block 1004 and the interior of the shock-absorbing groove 1001 is utilized to improve the stability of the sliding column 1005 in driving the movable loading seat 2 to slide up and down.
[0037] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, rubber strips 11 are fixedly connected to both ends of the top of the fixing plate 3 , and the rubber strips 11 are symmetrically distributed about the vertical center axis of the fixing plate 3 .
[0038] In this embodiment, the symmetrically distributed rubber strips 11 are used so that when the movable loading seat 2 descends too much, the bottom end of the movable loading seat 2 will flexibly contact the top end of the fixed plate 3 to achieve secondary buffering.
[0039] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the top end of the movable loading base 2 has an inclination angle of twenty degrees to the horizontal direction, and one side of the top end of the movable loading base 2 is rounded.
[0040] In this embodiment, the inclined movable loading seat 2 is used to guide the potatoes so that they fall more smoothly onto the surfaces of the plurality of roller bodies 7 .
[0041] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the discharge hopper 4 is U-shaped and is tilted.
[0042] In this embodiment, the inclined and U-shaped discharge hopper 4 is used to guide the potatoes discharged by the discharge conveyor belt 9, so that the workers can collect the potatoes more conveniently.
[0043] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, both sides of the top of the discharge rack 8 are in an inverted eight-shaped shape, and the tops of the discharge rack 8 are close to each other.
[0044] In this embodiment, the discharge racks 8 that are close to each other are used to facilitate comprehensive collection of potatoes that have fallen between the plurality of roller bodies 7 .
[0045] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: first, the threaded rod 102 is rotated by rotating the handle 105, and the threaded rod 102 and the threaded block 104 are matched with each other so that the threaded block 104 slides and drives the guide plate 101 to slide up and down, thereby changing the distance between the bottom end of the guide plate 101 and the surface of the roller body 7, so that it can be adjusted according to the approximate size or quantity of the potatoes to be screened;
[0046] Afterwards, when the potatoes are transported to the roller type sorting machine body 5 through the feeding device, the potatoes are guided by the inclined movable feeding seat 2, so that they fall more smoothly onto the surfaces of the multiple roller bodies 7. At the same time, the impact force of the falling potatoes will cause the movable feeding seat 2 to descend, thereby causing the sliding column 1005 to slide down and drive the sliding block 1004 to slide down inside the shock-absorbing groove 1001. At this time, the shock-absorbing spring 1002 and the damper 1003 will be pressed down, and the shock-absorbing spring 1002 will absorb the falling impact force, and the damper 1003 will consume the elastic potential energy absorbed by the compression of the shock-absorbing spring 1002, thereby slowing down the descending amplitude of the movable feeding seat 2, realizing buffering and shock absorption between the movable feeding seat 2 and the potatoes, and avoiding damage to the potato surface caused by hard collision between the two;
[0047] After the potatoes fall onto the surface of the roller body 7, the roller body 7 transports the potatoes. At this time, the guide plate 101 is used to allow a small number of potatoes to pass through the gap between the guide plate 101 and the roller body 7 for transport and sorting, thereby avoiding the accumulation of potatoes due to excessive feeding, which would cause some smaller potatoes to fail to be screened and sorted from the roller type sorting machine body 5 in time.
[0048] As the spacing between the roller bodies 7 gradually increases, potatoes of different sizes will fall down to the corresponding discharge racks 8 when the roller bodies 7 are at a suitable spacing, and then the discharge conveyor belt 9 will work to transport the potatoes, and finally they will be discharged by the discharge hopper 4 to achieve potato grading and screening.
[0049] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
