Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food packaging equipment technology, specifically a berry sorting device. Background Technology

[0002] Blueberry size and color vary by variety. Most varieties, such as rabbiteye, highbush, and lowbush blueberries, produce deep blue or violet fruit when ripe, while a few varieties are red. Fruits can be spherical, oval, oblate, or pear-shaped, with an average weight of 0.5-2.5 grams and a diameter of 0.8-1.5 centimeters. Rabbiteye blueberries can weigh up to 25 grams per fruit. Blueberries typically ripen 70-90 days after flowering. The flesh is soft and juicy. The seeds are small and can be eaten with the fruit without affecting the taste.

[0003] Since existing blueberries vary in size from 0.8 to 1.5 centimeters in diameter, and the larger the blueberry diameter, the higher its unit price, it is generally necessary to sort the blueberries by size during the packaging process. Therefore, in view of these circumstances, there is an urgent need to develop a berry sorting device to meet the needs of practical use. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a berry sorting device to solve the problem of low efficiency in manual sorting of blueberries and to effectively improve the efficiency of berry sorting and transportation.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A berry sorting device includes a frame, a first conveyor belt, and a second conveyor belt. The transport axes of the first and second conveyor belts are perpendicular to each other. The middle of the first conveyor belt has several filter mesh holes. The ends of the first conveyor belts are connected to form a ring structure. The interior of the first conveyor belt is a seepage cavity. The second conveyor belt is located inside the seepage cavity. The end of the second conveyor belt extends to the outside of the frame.

[0007] As a further embodiment of the above description, each of the four corners of the frame is provided with a rotatable roller shaft, and the first conveyor belt moves between the roller shafts. One of the roller shafts is provided with a first drive motor at its end.

[0008] As a further embodiment of the above description, the second conveyor belt also includes a transport frame and a second drive motor, with the second conveyor belt rotatably mounted on the surface of the transport frame via the second drive motor.

[0009] As a further embodiment of the above description, the frame also includes a support frame, which is disposed within the infiltration cavity of the first conveyor belt, and the transport frame is suspended within the infiltration cavity via the support frame.

[0010] As a further embodiment of the above description, a tensioning mechanism is also provided at the bottom of the frame. The tensioning mechanism includes a tensioning roller, a swing arm, and a fixed bracket. The two ends of the tensioning roller are rotatably disposed at one end of the swing arm. The end of the swing arm away from the tensioning roller is swayably connected to the bottom of the frame through the fixed bracket. The surface of the tensioning roller abuts against the bottom end surface of the first conveyor belt.

[0011] As a further embodiment of the above description, the tensioning mechanism also includes a push rod and a lead screw. The two ends of the push rod are movably connected to the middle of the swing arm, and the top end of the lead screw is rotatably connected to the middle of the push rod.

[0013] The present application discloses a berry sorting device. On the one hand, a first conveyor belt and a second conveyor belt with a filter mesh structure are formed with their transport axes perpendicular to each other.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments and accompanying drawings. The content mentioned in the embodiments is not intended to limit the present invention. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4 The specific implementation of the berry sorting equipment includes a frame 1, a first conveyor belt 2 and a second conveyor belt 5. The transport axes of the first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 5 are perpendicular to each other. The middle part of the first conveyor belt 2 is provided with a number of filter mesh holes 21. The ends of the first conveyor belt 2 are connected to form a ring structure. The interior of the first conveyor belt 2 is a seepage cavity 4. The second conveyor belt 5 is located inside the seepage cavity 4. The end of the second conveyor belt 5 extends to the outside of the frame 1.

[0022] The first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 5, each with a filter mesh 21, form a structure with their transport axes perpendicular to each other. The filter mesh 21 transports berries of different diameters in different directions on the two conveyor belts, effectively sorting them. Simultaneously, during the sorting process, the berries can be transported to different directions for packaging into boxes, effectively integrating the transport and sorting processes and further improving the efficiency of berry sorting and transport.

[0023] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, each of the four corners of the frame 1 is provided with a rotatable roller shaft 11. The first conveyor belt 2 moves by winding around the roller shaft 11. One end of one roller shaft 11 is provided with a first drive motor 3. The second conveyor belt 5 also includes a transport frame 51 and a second drive motor 52. The second conveyor belt 5 is rotatably mounted on the surface of the transport frame 51 via the second drive motor 52. The frame 1 also includes a support frame 12. The support frame 12 is disposed in the infiltration cavity 4 of the first conveyor belt 2. The transport frame 51 is suspended in the infiltration cavity 4 via the support frame 12.

[0024] In further proposals, such as Figure 3-4As shown, a tensioning mechanism 6 is also provided at the bottom of the frame 1. The tensioning mechanism 6 includes a tensioning roller 61, a swing arm 62, a fixed bracket 63, a push rod 64, and a lead screw 65. The two ends of the tensioning roller 61 are rotatably disposed at one end of the swing arm 62. The end of the swing arm 62 away from the tensioning roller 61 is swayably connected to the bottom of the frame 1 through the fixed bracket 63. The surface of the tensioning roller 61 abuts against the bottom end surface of the first conveyor belt 2. The two ends of the push rod 64 are movably connected to the middle of the swing arm 62, and the top end of the lead screw 65 is rotatably connected to the middle of the push rod 64. The lead screw 65 is threadedly connected to the frame 1 through a reducer 66.

[0025] The working process of a berry sorting device is as follows: The harvested berries are transported to one end of the first conveyor belt 2 via an external transport line. The first drive motor 3 drives the first conveyor belt 2 to move. The first conveyor belt 2 can transport the berries above the second conveyor belt 5. At this time, since the middle of the first conveyor belt 2 has several filter mesh holes 21, the berries with a diameter smaller than the filter mesh holes 21 can fall through the filter mesh holes 21 onto the surface of the second conveyor belt 5. Then, the second drive motor 52 drives the second conveyor belt 5 to transport and separate the smaller diameter berries in a direction perpendicular to the first conveyor belt 2. This process is the sorting of berries by diameter.

[0026] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall fall within the scope of the present utility model.
