Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of color sorter technology, and in particular to a cleaning component for a color sorter and a color sorter. Background Technology

[0002] Color sorters, as highly efficient color separation equipment, primarily function to identify color differences in materials using optical sensors, thereby separating materials that do not meet standards. To ensure effective color sorting, the cleanliness of the color sorter is crucial. However, after long-term operation, traditional color sorters tend to accumulate dust, residues, and other impurities in their sorting glass boxes. These impurities can interfere with the normal operation of the sensors, thus affecting sorting accuracy. In existing technologies, the brushes need to be replaced periodically, but due to limited installation space, brush replacement is complex and can easily lead to poor adhesion between the brushes and the sorting glass box. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a cleaning component and a color sorter to solve the technical problems of limited installation position of traditional cleaning components and poor adhesion between the brush and the sorting glass box.

[0004] This utility model provides a cleaning component for a color sorter, comprising:

[0005] The base has a first mounting surface and a second mounting surface arranged opposite to each other, the first mounting surface being used to fix the brush skin;

[0006] A drive structure is provided on the second mounting surface. The drive structure includes a support frame and a first link, a second link, and a third link that are independently arranged. The second mounting surface and the opposite surface of the support frame are provided with three sets of hinge points for connecting the first link, the second link, and the third link, respectively.

[0007] The third link has a telescopic structure that can extend and retract under external force to move the base relative to the support frame and to suspend the base at any position.

[0008] Furthermore, the first link, the second link, and the third link are arranged at intervals along the length of the support frame.

[0009] Furthermore, the first link is constructed as a short link, and the second link is constructed as a long link.

[0010] Furthermore, the telescopic structure includes a telescopic body and a rod connected by threads. The telescopic body and the distal end of the rod are connected to the third link to separate the third link.

[0011] Furthermore, the second mounting surface extends outward to form an integral structure of the lifting lug, and the corresponding hinge point is formed on the lifting lug.

[0012] Furthermore, the hinge points of the support frame are collinear, and the hinge points of the lifting lugs are also collinear.

[0013] Furthermore, a flange is provided around the first mounting surface in the circumferential direction, and the flange is provided with a plurality of elastic clips for fixing the brush skin.

[0014] Furthermore, the elastic clamp has a semi-closed elastic clamping portion, and a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion extending from both ends of the elastic clamping portion, wherein one of the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion is inclined relative to the other.

[0023] The realization of the purpose, functional features and advantages of this utility model will be further explained in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Detailed Implementation

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model are further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this utility model and are not intended to limit it.

[0025] In the embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, the cleaning assembly of the color sorter includes: a base 1 and a drive structure 2; the base 1 has a first mounting surface and a second mounting surface arranged opposite to each other, the first mounting surface being used to fix the brush skin; the drive structure 2 is disposed on the second mounting surface, the drive structure 2 including a support frame 204 and a first connecting rod 201, a second connecting rod 202 and a third connecting rod 203 arranged independently of each other, the second mounting surface and the opposite surface of the support frame 204 having three sets of hinge points for connecting the first connecting rod 201, the second connecting rod 202 and the third connecting rod 203 respectively; wherein, the third connecting rod 203 has a telescopic structure 3, the telescopic structure 3 being able to extend and retract under the action of external force, so as to link the base 1 relative to the support frame 204 and to suspend the base 1 at any position.

[0026] Specifically, in this embodiment of the invention, to prevent a large amount of dust from adhering to the walls of the sorting glass box, its surface is set at a corresponding tilt angle, allowing the dust to fall from top to bottom; thus, the base 1 supported by the brush is also tilted accordingly. Generally, to improve the sorting speed of the color sorter, it can be configured with two independent color sorting zones, thus requiring two sorting glass boxes. This necessitates two cleaning components connected by a support rod (e.g., ...). Figure 1 (As shown). Because the base 1 is tilted, the original installation space between the two is reduced; this is to allow the brush to fit against the wall of the sorting glass box, and also to allow for periodic replacement of the brush within the aforementioned installation space. In this embodiment, the base 1 has a first mounting surface and a second mounting surface arranged opposite to each other. The first mounting surface is used to support and fix the brush, and the second mounting surface is used to install the drive structure 2.

[0027] Specifically, the drive structure 2 includes a vertically arranged support frame 204 and three independently arranged connecting rods: a first connecting rod 201, a second connecting rod 202, and a third connecting rod 203. The two ends of the three connecting rods are respectively hinged to the second mounting surface and the support frame 204, forming six hinge points. These six hinge points can be grouped in pairs to form three corresponding hinge point groups. That is, all three connecting rods can rotate relative to the second mounting surface and the support frame 204. In other words, the rotation of the three connecting rods can drive the base 1 to move relative to the support frame 204. On the other hand, to suspend the base 1 at any position, a telescopic structure 3 is provided at the third connecting rod 203 in this embodiment. This telescopic structure 3 is configured to be telescopic, so that it can extend and retract under the action of external force to change the overall length of the third connecting rod 203. Then, by adjusting the length of the third connecting rod 203, the rotation of the other connecting rods can be changed, and the base 1 can be stopped at the ideal position after the external force disappears. Once installed, the brush pads fixed to the first mounting surface can fit optimally against the wall of the sorting glass box. With the assistance of an external linkage mechanism (not shown), the brush pads can reciprocate to clean, preventing dust accumulation. Furthermore, when brush pad replacement is needed, the extension / retraction of the telescopic structure 3 causes the connecting rods to rotate, allowing the brush pads to detach from the sorting glass box. This enables quick brush pad replacement even in limited installation space, without requiring complete disassembly, making it convenient and fast.

[0028] In this embodiment, the rotation of the first connecting rod 201, the second connecting rod 202, and the third connecting rod 203, along with the coordination of the telescopic structure 3 of the third connecting rod 203, allows the connecting rods to rotate and detach the brush from the sorting glass box when the brush needs to be replaced. This enables quick brush replacement even in limited installation space, without requiring complete disassembly, making operation convenient and fast. Furthermore, the brush can adapt to the inclination of the sorting glass box wall, ensuring complete contact with the box and facilitating cleaning.

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, in one embodiment, the first connecting rod 201, the second connecting rod 202, and the third connecting rod 203 are sequentially spaced along the length of the support frame 204. Specifically, to constrain the rotation direction of the three connecting rods, in this embodiment, the first connecting rod 201, the second connecting rod 202, and the third connecting rod 203 are sequentially spaced along the length of the support frame 204, and their rotation paths do not affect or interfere with each other, avoiding entanglement. Preferably, the first connecting rod 201 is constructed as a short rod, and the second connecting rod 202 is constructed as a long rod. Of course, since each connecting rod has a hinge point at the connection with the second mounting surface and the support frame 204, in order to better suspend the base 1 in any direction, not only can the telescopic structure 3 be adjusted, but locking elements can also be provided at each hinge point to fix the originally rotatable connecting rod to the corresponding second mounting surface and the support frame 204. The locking elements mentioned above can be locking nuts or pins.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the telescopic structure 3 includes a threaded telescopic body 301 and a rod 302. The distal ends of the telescopic body 301 and the rod 302 are connected to the third link 203 to separate the third link 203. Specifically, to achieve the telescopicity of the telescopic structure 3, this embodiment defines the telescopic structure 3 as a threaded telescopic body 301 and a rod 302. By rotating the telescopic body 301, its length within the rod 302 is changed, thereby achieving telescopicity. Furthermore, to install the telescopic structure 3 at the third link 203, the middle portion of the third link 203 is disconnected, and the disconnected portion is connected using the telescopic body 301 and the rod 302. Alternatively, in this embodiment, the rod 302 is directly installed at one of the hinge points of the support frame 204 as part of the third link 203. A connecting seat is provided at one end of the telescopic body 301 away from the rod 302. The telescopic body 301 and the connecting seat are rotatably connected, and the connecting seat is installed at one of the hinge points of the second mounting surface. This allows the telescopic structure 3 to be installed as part of the third link 203, making reasonable use of the installation space, resulting in a more compact structure and less material usage.

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, in one embodiment, the second mounting surface extends outward to form an integral lifting lug 4, and the corresponding hinge point is formed at the lifting lug 4. Specifically, since the second mounting surface of the base 1 is a combination of a plane and a curved surface, in order to facilitate the installation of each connecting rod at the second mounting surface, this embodiment provides a lifting lug 4 on the second mounting surface, so as to use the lifting lug 4 as an intermediate connecting member to connect the second mounting surface and each connecting rod. At the same time, it also facilitates the installation of the locking member at the lifting lug 4, and the rotation angle of each connecting rod can be directly observed. Preferably, the hinge points located on the support frame 204 are collinearly arranged, and the hinge points located on the lifting lug 4 are collinearly arranged.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, a flange 5 is provided around the circumference of the first mounting surface, and the flange 5 is provided with a plurality of elastic clips 6 for fixing the brush skin. Specifically, in order to increase the contact area between the brush skin and the first mounting surface, this embodiment provides a flange 5 at the first mounting surface. This flange 5 can be arranged around the circumference of the first mounting surface to increase the overall area of ​​the first mounting surface, thereby increasing the contact area with the brush skin. The extra-large and extra-wide base 1 is more conducive to increasing the cleaning area of ​​the brush skin. In addition, in order to fix the brush skin at the first mounting surface, this embodiment provides elastic clips 6 at the flange 5, and uses the elastic clips 6 to fix the brush skin, realizing a detachable connection between the brush skin and the base 1, which is convenient for periodic replacement.

[0033] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the elastic clamp 6 has a semi-enclosed elastic clamping portion 601, and a first connecting portion 602 and a second connecting portion 603 extending from both ends of the elastic clamping portion 601. One of the first connecting portion 602 and the second connecting portion 603 is inclined relative to the other. Specifically, the elastic clamping portion 601 of the elastic clamp 6 is used to accommodate and clamp the brush skin; one of the first connecting portion 602 and the second connecting portion 603 is fixed to a first mounting surface, and the other is inclined relative to it, so as to facilitate moving the elastic clamping portion 601 to open it, and then clamping the brush skin after releasing it. Preferably, the elastic clamping portion 601 is provided with a plurality of viewing openings 604 for checking whether the brush skin is installed in place inside the elastic clamping portion 601, so as to avoid tangling.

[0034] This embodiment also provides a color sorter, including a sorting glass box and the cleaning component described above. The specific structure of the cleaning component is the same as described in the above embodiment. Since this color sorter adopts all the technical solutions of the above embodiment, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiment, which will not be described in detail here.

[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
