[0021] This utility model provides an automated sorting production line for edible fungi processing, such as... Figure 1-4 As shown, the automatic sorting production line for edible fungi processing includes: a base plate 1, on which a rotatable sorting cylinder 2 is provided for sorting edible fungi, the sorting cylinder 2 having several through holes 3; a hopper 4, on which the hopper 4 is provided for holding the edible fungi to be sorted; a guide trough 5, fixedly installed on the outlet of the hopper 4 for guiding the edible fungi into the sorting cylinder 2, the outlet end of the guide trough 5 extending into the sorting cylinder 2; four support columns 6, four support columns 6 symmetrically fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 1, the top of the support column 6 being fixed with a mounting frame 7, and a guide wheel 8 rotatably installed on the mounting frame 7 for limiting and guiding the sorting cylinder 2; and a drive mechanism, on which the base plate 1 and the sorting cylinder 2 are provided for driving the sorting cylinder 2 to rotate.

[0022] In this embodiment, the base plate 1 serves as the supporting foundation for the entire production line. The base plate 1 is firmly installed on the ground, providing a stable mounting platform for other components. The rotatable sorting cylinder 2, mounted on the base plate 1, is the core component for sorting shiitake mushrooms. The sorting cylinder 2 is designed with multiple sets of through holes 3, whose diameter gradually increases from front to back, allowing shiitake mushrooms of different sizes to fall through the corresponding through holes during rotation, thus achieving automatic sorting. Through mechanized rotation and graded through hole design, rapid and accurate sorting of shiitake mushrooms is achieved, greatly improving sorting efficiency. The hopper 4 is located on the base plate 1 and is used to hold the shiitake mushrooms to be sorted. The hopper design should facilitate the storage of shiitake mushrooms and uniform discharge to ensure the continuity of the sorting process. The guide trough 5 is fixedly installed on the discharge port of the hopper 4, with its discharge end extending into the sorting cylinder 2. The function of the guide trough is to smoothly guide the shiitake mushrooms from the hopper into the sorting cylinder 2, ensuring the smooth progress of the sorting process. Four support columns 6 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 1, providing stable support for the mounting frame 7. Guide wheels 8 are rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 7. These guide wheels limit and guide the sorting cylinder 2, ensuring it maintains a stable trajectory during rotation. The robust support structure and precise guiding mechanism guarantee the stable operation of the sorting cylinder 2, improving the accuracy and reliability of sorting. The drive mechanism, located on the base plate 1 and the sorting cylinder 2, provides stable rotational power to the sorting cylinder 2. The efficient drive mechanism ensures the continuous and stable rotation of the sorting cylinder 2, providing strong power support for the sorting of shiitake mushrooms. In summary, the automatic sorting production line for edible fungi processing provided by this utility model solves the problem of low sorting efficiency in edible fungi (especially shiitake mushrooms) processing through ingenious mechanical design and efficient drive mechanism. This production line achieves rapid and efficient sorting of shiitake mushrooms through automated mechanical structure, reducing labor costs and improving production efficiency.

[0023] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the driving mechanism includes: a transmission frame 9 fixedly mounted on the sorting cylinder 2, with a connecting rod 10 fixedly mounted on the transmission frame 9; a mounting plate 11 fixedly mounted on the top of the base plate 1, with a transmission shaft 12 rotatably mounted on the mounting plate 11, the transmission shaft 12 being fixedly connected to the connecting rod 10 via a coupling; a reducer 13 disposed on the mounting plate 11, the input shaft of the reducer 13 being fixedly connected to the transmission shaft 12 via a coupling; and a first motor 14 fixedly mounted on the base plate 1, with pulleys 15 fixedly mounted on both the output shaft of the first motor 14 and the input shaft of the reducer 13, and the same timing belt 16 being sleeved on both pulleys 15.

[0024] In this embodiment, the transmission frame 9 is fixedly mounted on the sorting cylinder 2 and connected to the transmission shaft 12 via the connecting rod 10, ensuring the stability of the sorting cylinder 2 during the driving process. The transmission shaft 12 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 10 via a coupling and supported by the mounting plate 11 mounted on the top of the base plate 1, ensuring the stability and precise rotation of the transmission shaft 12. The reducer 13 is mounted on the mounting plate 11, and its input shaft is connected to the transmission shaft 12 via a coupling, effectively reducing the high speed output of the first motor 14 and converting it into the torque required by the sorting cylinder 2, thus improving the driving efficiency. The first motor 14 is fixed on the base plate 1 and connected to the reducer 13 via pulleys 15 and a timing belt 16, achieving smooth power transmission. The two pulleys 15 are connected by the same timing belt 16, ensuring the synchronization and precision of the transmission. This design not only improves the efficiency of the drive mechanism but also ensures the stability and reliability of the sorting cylinder 2 during operation, reduces energy loss, and improves the overall operating efficiency and working accuracy of the equipment.

[0025] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, an installation rod 17 is rotatably installed inside the hopper 4, and a feeding plate 18 is fixedly installed on the installation rod 17. A second motor 19 is fixed on one side of the hopper 4, and the output shaft of the second motor 19 is fixedly connected to the installation rod 17 through a coupling.

[0026] In this embodiment, the mounting rod 17 is rotatably mounted inside the hopper 4, serving as a key component for supporting and driving the feeding plate 18; the feeding plate 18 moves with the rotation of the mounting rod 17. The shape and angle of the feeding plate 18 need to be carefully designed to ensure that the mushrooms can slide smoothly and evenly into the guide trough 5; the second motor 19 is fixed to one side of the hopper 4, serving as the power source for driving the mounting rod 17 and the feeding plate 18. The output shaft of the second motor 19 is fixedly connected to the mounting rod 17 via a coupling to achieve direct power transmission; through the rotational movement of the feeding plate 18, the mushrooms can receive a uniform thrust within the hopper 4, thus sliding smoothly and orderly into the guide trough 5. This avoids the blockage and accumulation problems that may occur in traditional feeding methods, improving feeding efficiency; the optimized design of the hopper 4 reduces the need for manual intervention and lowers labor intensity.

[0027] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, an annular groove is provided on the outer wall of the selection cylinder 2, and the annular groove is adapted to the guide wheel 8.

[0028] In this embodiment, an annular groove is formed on the outer wall of the sorting cylinder 2.

The rim of the guide wheel 8 is adapted to the annular groove on the outer wall of the sorting cylinder 2, that is, the guide wheel 8 can be embedded in the annular groove and roll along it. Through the tight fit between the guide wheel 8 and the annular groove, stable guidance of the sorting cylinder 2 is achieved. During the rotation of the sorting cylinder 2, the guide wheel 8 can roll along the annular groove, effectively preventing the sorting cylinder 2 from shaking and deviating, and improving the stability and reliability of the sorting process.

[0029] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a receiving box 20 is provided directly below the sorting cylinder 2 for receiving and holding edible fungi falling from the through hole 3, and a handle is fixedly installed on the receiving box 20.

With the handle design, the operator can easily move and transport the receiving box, thereby conveniently transferring the collected edible fungi to subsequent processing stages, such as washing and packaging.

[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a support frame is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 1, and the top of the support frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the hopper 4.

[0032] In this embodiment, the support frame is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 1. Its main function is to provide additional support and stability, ensuring that the hopper 4 can be stably installed on the base plate 1. The design of the support frame needs to take into account its load-bearing capacity, stability and durability, so as to ensure that it does not deform or get damaged during long-term use.

[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, an assembly base is fixedly installed on the mounting plate 11 for supporting and assembling the reducer 13.

[0034] In this embodiment, the design of the mounting base allows the reducer 13 to be securely mounted on the mounting plate 11, reducing the risk of loosening or damage due to vibration or impact. This helps to ensure the stability and reliability of the reducer 13 during long-term operation.

[0035] In summary, the base plate 1 serves as a stable support foundation, ensuring the stability of the production line and providing a solid mounting platform for other components. The design of the sorting cylinder 2 and the through holes 3, with multiple sets of through holes whose diameter gradually increases from front to back, enables automatic sorting of shiitake mushrooms by size, improving sorting efficiency. The design of the hopper 4 facilitates the storage and uniform discharge of shiitake mushrooms, and the guide chute smoothly guides the shiitake mushrooms into the sorting cylinder, ensuring the continuity and efficiency of the sorting process. The support column 6 and the mounting frame 7 provide a stable support structure, ensuring the precise guidance of the guide wheel 8 to the sorting cylinder 2, improving the stability and reliability of the sorting process. The guide wheel 8 is embedded in the annular groove on the outer wall of the sorting cylinder, ensuring a stable trajectory for the sorting cylinder 2 during rotation, preventing shaking and deviation, and improving sorting accuracy. The drive mechanism design provides continuous, stable, and precise power support to the sorting cylinder 2, solving the problem of low sorting efficiency in the processing of edible fungi (especially shiitake mushrooms). This production line, through its automated mechanical structure, achieves rapid and efficient sorting of shiitake mushrooms, reducing labor costs and improving production efficiency.
