Figure 1-3 The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model are clearly and completely described herein. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of this utility model are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0022] like Figure 1-3 As shown: This embodiment provides a feeding hopper for agricultural product processing, including a feeding mechanism 200 mounted on a frame 100. The feeding mechanism 200 includes a feeding hopper body 210 mounted on the frame 100. The feeding hopper body 210 includes side baffles 222211 and a filter guide plate 212. The side baffles 222211 and the filter guide plate 212 form a box structure. The three side baffles 222211 and the filter guide plate 212 are welded together. The filter guide plate 212 has multiple filter holes 213 and is inclined downward. A guiding assembly 220 is provided at the lower part of the feeding hopper body 210. This utility model can guide the material through the filter guide plate. The filter holes 213 on 212 filter dust, stones, and other impurities adhering to the agricultural products entering the hopper during the feeding process, preventing them from entering the processing equipment, ensuring the quality of the processed agricultural products, and avoiding damage to the processing equipment by stone impurities. This greatly improves the processing efficiency and safety of the equipment. It solves the problem that traditional agricultural product processing hoppers usually cannot filter dust, stones, and other impurities adhering to agricultural products, which leads to dust, stones, and other impurities adhering to the agricultural products entering the processing equipment during the feeding process, which may cause the processing equipment to jam or be damaged, and affect the quality of the processed products, posing certain safety hazards.

[0023] According to one embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, the material guiding assembly 220 includes a guide plate 221 inclined downwardly disposed below the hopper. A baffle plate is disposed on the guide plate 221 that contacts the hopper body 210. An elastic support assembly 230 is disposed at the lower part of the guide plate 221. This utility model can achieve elastic support for the guide plate 221 through the elastic support assembly 230, which greatly improves the material feeding efficiency. In particular, after the material feeding is completed, it can effectively prevent the material from remaining on the guide plate 221 due to excessive friction, making the operation more convenient.

[0024] According to another embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, there are four elastic support components 230, which are located at the four corners of the lower part of the guide plate 221. Each elastic support component 230 includes a fixed seat 231 mounted on the frame 100. A guide rod 232 is mounted on the upper part of the fixed seat 231, and a spring 233 is mounted on the outer side of the guide rod 232. A limiting rod 234, which coincides with the axis of the guide rod 232, is mounted on the lower part of the guide plate 221. The other end of the spring 233 is sleeved on the outer side of the limiting rod 234 and fixed to the lower part of the guide plate 221.

[0027] How to use this utility model:

[0028] First, it needs to be clarified that the feeding hopper involved in this utility model is mainly used for feeding agricultural products during processing. This utility model takes the peeling of agricultural products, such as potatoes, as an example to illustrate its usage in detail. When potatoes need to be peeled, the potatoes, after preliminary screening, are fed into the feeding hopper. As the potatoes roll down along the filter guide plate 212 inside the feeding hopper, the dust adhering to the potatoes will pass through the filter holes 213 on the filter guide plate 212. This achieves the filtering of dust, stones, and other impurities adhering to the agricultural products entering the feeding hopper during the feeding process, preventing them from entering the processing equipment. This utility model can achieve this through the filter guide plate 212... The filter holes 213 on the upper part of the device filter out dust, stones, and other impurities adhering to the agricultural products entering the hopper during the feeding process. This prevents these impurities from entering the processing equipment, ensuring the quality of the processed agricultural products and preventing damage to the equipment from stone impurities. This greatly improves the processing efficiency and safety of the equipment. It solves the problem that traditional agricultural product processing hoppers usually cannot filter out dust, stones, and other impurities adhering to the agricultural products. This can lead to dust, stones, and other impurities entering the processing equipment during the feeding process, potentially causing jamming or damage to the processing equipment, affecting the quality of the processed products, and posing certain safety hazards.

[0029] Furthermore, it should be noted that, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly.
