[0029] like Figure 1 —3, the specific scheme of the embodiment is as follows: an egg sorting device, including a fixed frame 1, the fixed frame 1 is made of stainless steel, the stainless steel fixed frame 1 has the characteristics of high strength and corrosion resistance, the fixed frame 1 is rectangular, the inner side wall of the fixed frame 1 is provided with a plurality of limit seats 101, the limit seats 101 are made of rubber, the limit seats 101 can reduce the friction and collision between the fixed frame 1 and the egg tray 9, and protect the eggs from damage. At the same time, the limit seats 101 can also ensure that the egg tray 9 is in the correct position in the fixed frame 1 to prevent displacement. A control panel 103 is provided on the fixed frame 1, and the control panel 103 integrates various control buttons and a display screen for controlling the start and stop of the motor 31, adjusting the brightness of the lamp beads 5, the timing start and stop of the mounting seat 4, and displaying the screening results, etc. In addition, the control panel 103 also has a fault alarm function. Once the device is abnormal, an alarm will be immediately issued and an error message will be displayed;

[0030] A grid plate 2 is installed on the inner side of the fixed frame 1. The grid plate 2 is made of a lightweight and strong material. The spacing between the bars on the grid plate 2 is designed according to the gap on the egg tray 9. The grid plate 2 not only serves as a supporting structure, but also ensures that light can penetrate and effectively illuminate the egg tray 9 and eggs below.

[0031] A driving member 3 is installed on the fixed frame 1, and the driving member 3 includes a motor 31 installed on the side wall of the fixed frame 1. A reciprocating screw 32 is fixedly installed on the output end of the motor 31, and the end of the reciprocating screw 32 away from the motor 31 is connected to the fixed frame 1 through a bearing. The reciprocating screw 32 is located in the middle position of the fixed frame 1, and a wire seat 33 is connected to the reciprocating screw 32. A mounting seat 4 is provided on the driving member 3, and the mounting seat 4 is fixedly connected to the wire seat 33. A slide 402 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the mounting seat 4. A slide groove for the slide 402 to slide is opened on the fixed frame 1, and the number of the slide 402 and the slide groove is two, and they are symmetrically distributed;

[0032] The reciprocating movement of the mounting base 4 is achieved by the threaded engagement of the reciprocating screw 32 and the threaded seat 33. This design enables the lamp beads 5 to perform a horizontal scan along the top of the grid plate 2, comprehensively inspecting the internal quality of each egg. The side wall of the mounting base 4 is fixedly connected to a slide 402, which slides in a slide groove provided on the fixed frame 1, further improving the stability and accuracy of the movement of the mounting base 4.

[0033] The above-mentioned driving component 3 can be replaced. Its motor 31 can be replaced by a stepper motor. A rack is installed on the fixed frame 1 and meshed with the output gear of the stepper motor. The rotational motion of the stepper motor is converted into linear motion of the mounting base 4 through the rack and pinion mechanism.

[0034] The mounting base 4 is provided with a lamp bead 5 at one end thereof close to the grid plate 2. The lamp bead 5 is a high-brightness, low-energy LED lamp bead that can emit uniform and soft light, penetrate the eggshell and illuminate the inside of the egg, thereby judging the freshness and quality of the egg. The mounting base 4 is provided with a cover plate 401 at one end thereof close to the fixed frame 1. A through hole is provided on the surface of the cover plate 401 for the lamp bead 5 to pass through. The arrangement of the cover plate 401 allows the lamp bead 5 inside the mounting base 4 to be replaced and maintained.

[0035] A connecting rod 6 is mounted on one end of the fixed frame 1 away from the driving member 3. A connecting groove 102 is formed on the fixed frame 1. The connecting rod 6 is connected to the connecting groove 102 via a threaded column. The arrangement of the threaded column and the connecting groove 102 allows the connecting rod 6 to be disassembled and assembled as needed. A light shield 7 is provided on the connecting rod 6. The light shield 7 is mounted on the connecting rod 6 to block light interference from outside the device, ensuring that the light emitted by the lamp beads 5 can accurately illuminate the eggs.

[0036] The fixed frame 1 is provided with a support column 8 at one end away from the connecting rod 6. The number of the support columns 8 is two pairs and they are symmetrically distributed. The support columns 8 are used to support the entire device and maintain its stability. The support column 8 is provided with a pulley 801 at one end away from the fixed frame 1. The setting of the pulley 801 facilitates the movement and positioning of the device between different positions. An egg tray 9 is provided on the grid plate 2. The egg tray 9 is a paper tray. As a carrier of eggs, the paper tray can stably carry and fix the eggs to be screened. During the sorting process, the eggs are placed in the grooves of the paper tray, which effectively prevents direct contact between the eggs. At the same time, traditionally, after sorting out good eggs, each egg needs to be manually removed from the tray and then packed. This process is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also increases the risk of damage to the eggs. With the setting of paper trays, good eggs can be packed directly with the tray, eliminating the step of taking out the eggs, greatly reducing the complexity and labor intensity of manual operations. During the packing process, if the eggs need to be taken out of the tray and then packed, it is easy for the eggs to be damaged due to improper operation. Packing the eggs directly with the paper tray can minimize the breakage rate of the eggs.

[0037] The egg tray 9 is provided with a plurality of light-transmitting holes 901 , and a plurality of light-transmitting holes 901 are provided at the bottom of the egg tray 9 . These light-transmitting holes 9 correspond to the grids on the grid plate 2 , ensuring that the light emitted by the lamp beads 5 can smoothly penetrate and illuminate the inside of the egg.

[0038] The working steps of the above embodiment are:

[0039] Place the egg tray 9 loaded with eggs on the grid plate 2 in sequence, and make the edge of the egg tray 9 fit with the limiting seat 101;

[0040] Start the motor 31 through the control panel 103, and the motor 31 will drive the reciprocating screw 32 to rotate, thereby driving the screw seat 33 and the mounting seat 4 to reciprocate along the fixed frame 1;

[0041] The lamp beads 5 on the mounting base 4 start working, emitting uniform and soft light, which penetrates the light-transmitting holes 901 on the egg tray 9 and the grid of the grid plate 2, and illuminates the inside of the egg;

[0042] After the light is shone inside the eggs, the quality of the eggs is manually observed and judged, and the eggs with bad internal quality changes are picked out;

[0043] After the sorting is completed, the egg trays 9 are taken out in sequence for packaging.

[0044] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
