Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of soybean conveying equipment technology, and in particular to a control system for soybean conveying equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Soybeans are annual herbaceous plants belonging to the genus *Glycine* in the legume family. They originated in China and are cultivated throughout the country, as well as widely around the world. Soybeans are one of China's important food crops, a crop whose seeds are rich in plant protein, with a protein content of 35%–40%. Soybeans are most commonly used to make various soy products, extract soybean oil, brew soy sauce, and extract protein. During processing, soybeans typically require conveyor equipment for transport.
[0003] A search revealed that utility model patent CN217125911U discloses a "control system for a soybean conveying device." This control system lifts soybeans upwards via a bucket elevator to a scraper conveyor, which then transports them to a soaking tank. Because the control box is located at the starting point of the soybean conveying process, when a soaking tank is full and needs to be moved to another, the operator directly controls the opening of the corresponding scraper outlet via a switch unit. Simultaneously, a corresponding status indicator unit displays that the scraper outlet of that soaking tank is open. Status indicators for other soaking tanks do not display anything. This saves time spent repeatedly going up and down stairs, reduces labor intensity, and the visual status indicator unit significantly reduces the risk of switching to the wrong tank.
[0004] The device has a complex discharge structure, high maintenance costs, and is very inconvenient to use.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a control system for soybean conveying equipment to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a control system for a soybean conveying device, comprising: a feeding cylinder;
[0008] The bottom of the feeding cylinder is fixedly connected to a discharge pipe, and multiple sets of discharge pipes are provided. A first motor is provided on the front of the discharge pipe, and a rotating rod is rotatably connected inside the discharge pipe. The output end of the first motor is fixedly connected to the rotating rod. Two sets of baffles are fixedly connected to the circumference of the rotating rod. A first infrared emitter is provided on the front of the discharge pipe, and a first infrared receiver is provided on the back of the discharge pipe. The first infrared emitter and the first infrared receiver are matched. A second motor is provided on the front of the feeding cylinder, and a screw rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor. The screw rod is rotatably connected inside the feeding cylinder and matches the inner wall of the feeding cylinder.
[0009] Preferably, a small hopper is fixedly connected to the upper end of the feeding cylinder, a second infrared transmitter is provided on the periphery of the small hopper, and a second infrared receiver is provided on the periphery of the small hopper, with the second infrared transmitter and the second infrared receiver being matched.

[0014] Compared with related technologies, the control system for a soybean conveying device provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] This utility model provides a control system for a soybean conveying device. A first motor drives a rotating rod to rotate a baffle. When the baffle is vertical, soybeans can pass through the inside of the feeding pipe. When the baffle is horizontal, soybeans cannot pass through. When the hopper at the bottom of the feeding pipe is full, soybeans overflow into the feeding pipe. When the soybeans block the infrared rays emitted by the first infrared emitter, the first motor drives the rotating rod to rotate the baffle to a horizontal position. At this time, a second motor drives a screw rod to rotate, which conveys the soybeans to the upper end of another set of feeding pipes. This device has a simple structure, low maintenance costs, and is very easy to use. A third motor drives a drive roller to rotate, which in turn drives a conveyor belt. When the conveyor belt moves the hopper, it lifts the soybeans from the main hopper and pours them into the feeding pipe. The soybeans enter the small hopper through the feeding pipe. When the small hopper is almost full, the soybeans block the infrared rays emitted by the second infrared emitter. At this time, the third motor stops working. This structure automatically controls the feeding and prevents material spillage. Attached Figure Description

The screw rod 9 is rotatably connected inside the feeding cylinder 1 and matches the inner wall of the feeding cylinder 1. The inside of the discharge pipe 2 is provided with a baffle plate, and the infrared light passes through the bottom of the plate. The setting of the plate can prevent soybeans from blocking the infrared light during the discharge.
[0025] A small hopper 10 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the feeding cylinder 1. A second infrared transmitter 11 is provided on the side of the small hopper 10, and a second infrared receiver 12 is provided on the side of the small hopper 10.

[0026] A feeding pipe 13 is provided at the upper end of the small hopper 10. The right end of the feeding pipe 13 is located at the upper center of the small hopper 10. A housing 14 is provided on the front of the feeding pipe 13.

[0027] An active roller 15 is rotatably connected inside the outer casing 14, and a driven roller 16 is rotatably connected inside the outer casing 14.

[0030] The working principle of the control system for a soybean conveying device provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0031] Step 1: In use, the first motor 3 drives the rotating rod 4 to rotate, which in turn rotates the baffle 5. When the baffle 5 is in an upright state, soybeans can pass through the inside of the feeding pipe 2. When the baffle 5 is in a horizontal state, soybeans cannot pass through the inside of the feeding pipe 2. When the material bucket at the bottom of the feeding pipe 2 is full, soybeans will overflow into the feeding pipe 2. When the soybeans block the infrared rays emitted by the first infrared emitter 6, the first motor 3 will drive the rotating rod 4 to rotate, which will rotate the baffle 5 to a horizontal state. At this time, the second motor 8 drives the screw rod 9 to rotate, which will allow the screw rod 9 to convey the soybeans to the upper end of another set of feeding pipes 2.
[0032] Step 2: The third motor 19 drives the active roller 15 to rotate, which in turn drives the conveyor belt 17. When the conveyor belt 17 drives the hopper 18 to move, the hopper 18 can lift the soybeans from the main hopper 20 and pour them into the feeding pipe 13. The soybeans enter the small hopper 10 through the feeding pipe 13. When the small hopper 10 is about to be full of soybeans, the soybeans will block the infrared rays emitted by the second infrared emitter 11. At this time, the third motor 19 stops working.
[0033] Compared with related technologies, the control system for a soybean conveying device provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0034] The first motor 3 drives the rotating rod 4 to rotate, which in turn rotates the baffle 5. When the baffle 5 is in an upright position, soybeans can pass through the inside of the feeding pipe 2. When the baffle 5 is in a horizontal position, soybeans cannot pass through the inside of the feeding pipe 2. When the hopper at the bottom of the feeding pipe 2 is full, soybeans will overflow into the feeding pipe 2. When the soybeans block the infrared rays emitted by the first infrared emitter 6, the first motor 3 will drive the rotating rod 4 to rotate, causing the baffle 5 to rotate to a horizontal position. At this time, the second motor 8 drives the screw rod 9 to rotate, which can then convey the soybeans to the upper end of another set of feeding pipes 2. This device... With a simple structure, low maintenance cost, and ease of use, the third motor 19 drives the active roller 15 to rotate, which in turn drives the conveyor belt 17. When the conveyor belt 17 moves the hopper 18, the hopper 18 can lift the soybeans from the main hopper 20 and pour them into the feeding pipe 13. The soybeans enter the small hopper 10 through the feeding pipe 13. When the small hopper 10 is about to be full of soybeans, the soybeans will block the infrared rays emitted by the second infrared emitter 11. At this time, the third motor 19 stops working. This structure can automatically control the feeding and prevent the material from spilling out.
