Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fruit and vegetable sorting technology, and in particular to a fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism and a fruit and vegetable sorting device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, fruits and vegetables are a type of food that people often consume. Fruits and vegetables include cherries, apples, pears, and tomatoes, among others. After ripening, fruits and vegetables need to be harvested and then transported to factories for sorting and processing to facilitate subsequent packaging and sales.

[0003] In related technologies, fruit and vegetable sorting devices may include fruit and vegetable conveying mechanisms. Generally, fruit and vegetable conveying mechanisms can be motor-driven conveyor belts or sprocket structures, and are generally used to move fruits and vegetables.

[0004] However, the fruits and vegetables may not be evenly distributed throughout the fruit and vegetable conveying system, resulting in excessive accumulation of fruits and vegetables in some areas and causing blockages at the output end of the system. Utility Model Content

[0005] The present invention aims to provide a fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism and a fruit and vegetable sorting device to solve the technical problem in the prior art that the fruits and vegetables in different parts of the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism may be uneven, resulting in a large accumulation of fruits and vegetables in some areas of the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism, which causes the output end of the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism to be blocked.

[0006] The technical problem solved by this utility model embodiment is addressed by the following technical solution:

[0007] A fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism is provided, comprising:

[0008] The frame is provided with a water storage tank;

[0009] A conveying assembly is mounted on the frame, and a water storage tank is located at the output end of the conveying assembly; the conveying assembly includes a first inclined section, the input end of which is lower than the output end of the first inclined section;

[0010] A limiting protrusion is provided on the conveying component. The limiting protrusion includes multiple rows, which are arranged sequentially in the conveying direction of the conveying component. The arrangement direction of all the limiting protrusions in each row is at a preset angle to the conveying direction of the conveying component. There is a gap between two adjacent limiting protrusions in each row. During the movement of the conveying component, the limiting protrusion can abut against the fruits and vegetables and drive them to move.

[0011] With the above structure, the user places the harvested fruits and vegetables at the input end of the first inclined section. During the movement of the conveying component, the limiting protrusions located at the first inclined section can abut against the fruits and vegetables and drive their movement, so that the fruits and vegetables can be conveyed to the water storage tank. When a limiting protrusion abuts against a large number of fruits and vegetables, some of the fruits and vegetables stacked on the same limiting protrusion will slide off through the gap between the two limiting protrusions, so as to avoid the accumulation of too many fruits and vegetables in the same area of ​​the conveying component, which would cause the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism to be blocked.

[0012] In addition, the water storage tank is located at the output end of the conveying component so that the fruits and vegetables at the output end of the conveying component can fall into the water storage tank. The liquid in the water storage tank can cushion the fruits and vegetables to prevent them from being injured when they fall from the output end of the conveying component.

[0013] In some embodiments, the conveying assembly further includes a second inclined section. The first inclined section and the second inclined section are arranged sequentially in the direction of movement of the fruits and vegetables. The input end of the second inclined section is connected to the output end of the first inclined section. The input end of the second inclined section is higher than the output end of the second inclined section. The output end of the second inclined section is located in the water storage tank.

[0014] With the above structure, fruits and vegetables pass through the first inclined section and the second inclined section in sequence on the conveying component into the water storage tank; the input end of the second inclined section is higher than the output end of the second inclined section, and the output end of the second inclined section is located in the water storage tank, so that the fruits and vegetables can be carried into the water storage tank containing liquid by the second inclined section, so as to avoid the fruit and vegetable surface hitting the liquid surface when the fruit and vegetables fall directly into the water storage tank, resulting in damage to the fruit and vegetable surface.

[0015] In some embodiments, the output of the second tilting segment is higher than the input of the first tilting segment.

[0016] With the above structure, the output end of the second inclined section is higher than the input end of the first inclined section, so that the length of the second inclined section is shorter, reducing the total conveying length of the conveying assembly and improving the conveying efficiency of the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism.

[0017] In some embodiments, the conveying assembly includes a drive component and a conveyor belt, the conveyor belt including a first inclined section and a second inclined section, the drive component being mounted on the frame and located at the upper part of the frame; the conveyor belt being mounted on the frame, the drive component being used to drive the conveyor belt to move; the limiting protrusion protruding from the conveyor belt.

[0018] With the above structure, the conveyor belt moves more easily relative to the frame, the surface of the conveyor belt is smoother, and the surface of the conveyor belt is less likely to obstruct the fruits and vegetables from sliding down through the gap between two adjacent limiting protrusions, further reducing the possibility of blockage of the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism due to excessive local fruits and vegetables in the conveying component.

[0019] In some embodiments, the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism further includes:

[0020] A water spray assembly, which is mounted on the frame;

[0021] The water storage tank is located below the output end of the second inclined section, and the water spraying assembly is located between the output end of the second inclined section and the bottom wall of the water storage tank; in the vertical direction, the angle between the water spraying direction of the water spraying assembly and the conveying direction of the second inclined section is an acute angle.

[0022] With the above structure, the water spraying assembly can inject liquid into the water storage tank; in the vertical direction, the angle between the water spraying direction of the water spraying assembly and the conveying direction of the second inclined section is an acute angle, so that when the water spraying assembly injects liquid into the water storage tank, the liquid sprayed by the water spraying assembly can push the fruits and vegetables at the output end of the second inclined section, so as to prevent the fruits and vegetables entering the water storage tank from falling into the water spraying assembly and causing the water spraying assembly to be blocked.

[0023] In some embodiments, the bottom wall of the water storage tank includes an inclined wall structure and a flow guide wall structure. In the direction of movement of the fruits and vegetables, the inclined wall structure and the flow guide wall structure are arranged in sequence, and the inclined wall structure is inclined upward; the end of the inclined wall structure away from the conveying assembly is higher than the flow guide wall structure.

[0024] The frame includes multiple parallel guide bars, all of which are connected to the flow guide wall structure. A guide groove is formed between two adjacent guide bars, and the guide groove is connected to the water storage tank. In a direction parallel to the horizontal plane, the extension direction of the guide groove is parallel to the movement direction of the fruits and vegetables.

[0025] With the above structure, the inclined wall structure tilts upward in the direction of fruit and vegetable movement; after the fruit and vegetables fall into the water storage tank, they will slowly fall towards the inclined wall structure. Under the propulsion of the liquid sprayed by the water spray component, the fruit and vegetables can move upward along the inclined wall structure to avoid the fruit and vegetables moving too fast.

[0026] In addition, all guide strips are connected to the flow guide wall structure, and guide grooves are formed between two adjacent guide strips. The guide grooves guide the fruits and vegetables in the water storage tank, so that the fruits and vegetables in the water storage tank can be evenly distributed in each guide groove. As a result, when the fruits and vegetables flow out of the guide grooves, they can be evenly distributed, reducing the possibility of blockage in the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism.

[0027] In some embodiments, the frame further includes a guide ramp connected to the side of the flow guide wall structure opposite to the conveying assembly, and the guide ramp is inclined downward in the direction of movement of the fruits and vegetables.

[0028] With the above structure, when fruits and vegetables move to the guide ramp, the guide ramp is used to guide the fruits and vegetables so that they can smoothly enter the next structure of the fruit and vegetable sorting device to avoid damage.

[0029] In some embodiments, the limiting protrusion has a plate-like structure, and the length direction of the limiting protrusion is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying assembly.

[0030] With the above structure, the limiting protrusion has a plate-like structure, including two parallel side surfaces. Both parallel side surfaces are perpendicular to the direction of movement of the fruits and vegetables, or the side surfaces of the limiting protrusion can also form an acute angle with the direction of movement of the fruits and vegetables. The distance between the two parallel side surfaces is the thickness of the limiting protrusion. The thickness of the limiting protrusion is smaller than the dimensions in the length and width directions. The thickness of the limiting protrusion can be set to be small, so that more limiting protrusions can be set on the conveying component, thereby enabling the conveying component to carry a larger amount of fruits and vegetables.

[0031] In some embodiments, the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism further includes a magnetic adsorption component mounted on the frame and located above the second inclined section.

[0032] With the above structure, when the conveying component moves the fruits and vegetables to the second inclined section, the magnetic adsorption component adsorbs iron-containing impurities mixed in the fruits and vegetables, thereby removing some of the impurities.

[0033] Another embodiment of this utility model provides a fruit and vegetable sorting device, including the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism in any of the above embodiments.

[0034] Compared to existing technologies, users place harvested fruits and vegetables at the input end of the first inclined section. During the movement of the conveying component, the limiting protrusions located at the first inclined section can abut against the fruits and vegetables and drive their movement, allowing them to be conveyed to the water storage tank. When a limiting protrusion abuts against a large number of fruits and vegetables, some of the fruits and vegetables stacked on the same limiting protrusion will slide off through the gap between the two limiting protrusions, thus preventing excessive accumulation of fruits and vegetables in the same area of ​​the conveying component and avoiding blockage of the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism.

[0035] In addition, the water storage tank is located at the output end of the conveying component so that the fruits and vegetables at the output end of the conveying component can fall into the water storage tank. The liquid in the water storage tank can cushion the fruits and vegetables to prevent them from being injured when they fall from the output end of the conveying component.

Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0044] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this specification have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

[0045] The following detailed description, in conjunction with all the accompanying drawings, describes a fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism 100 and a fruit and vegetable sorting device provided in this application through specific embodiments.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 One embodiment of this utility model discloses a fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism 100, including a frame 10, a conveying component 20 and a limiting protrusion 30; the frame 10 has a water storage tank 102; the conveying component 20 is installed on the frame 10, and the water storage tank 102 is located at the output end of the conveying component 20; the conveying component 20 includes a first inclined section 242, and the input end of the first inclined section 242 is lower than the output end of the first inclined section 242.

[0047] The limiting protrusion 30 is provided on the conveying component 20. The limiting protrusion 30 includes multiple rows. Two adjacent rows of limiting protrusions 30 are arranged sequentially in the conveying direction of the conveying component 20. The arrangement direction of all the limiting protrusions 30 in each row is at a preset angle to the conveying direction of the conveying component 20. There is a gap between two adjacent limiting protrusions 30 in each row. During the movement of the conveying component 20, the limiting protrusion 30 can abut against the fruits and vegetables and drive the fruits and vegetables to move.

[0048] With the above structure, the user places the harvested fruits and vegetables at the input end of the first inclined section 242. During the movement of the conveying component 20, the limiting protrusion 30 located at the first inclined section 242 can abut against the fruits and vegetables and drive them to move, so that the fruits and vegetables can be conveyed to the water storage tank 102. When a limiting protrusion 30 abuts against a large number of fruits and vegetables, some of the fruits and vegetables stacked on the same limiting protrusion 30 will slide off through the gap between the two limiting protrusions 30, so as to avoid the accumulation of too many fruits and vegetables in the same area of ​​the conveying component 20, which would cause the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism 100 to be blocked.

[0049] In addition, the water storage tank 102 is located at the output end of the conveying component 20 so that the fruits and vegetables at the output end of the conveying component 20 can fall into the water storage tank 102. The liquid in the water storage tank 102 can buffer the fruits and vegetables to prevent them from being injured when they fall from the output end of the conveying component 20.

[0050] Specifically, in this embodiment, the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism 100 can be used to convey fruits and vegetables such as cherries. The frame 10 may include a mounting bracket with strip sheet metal support. The conveying component 20 may include a belt structure driven by a motor. The limiting protrusion 30 may be a rectangular plate structure perpendicular to the belt structure. The limiting protrusion 30 is fixed on the belt structure. The arrangement direction of all the limiting protrusions 30 in each row is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying component 20.

[0051] In other embodiments, the frame 10 may also be of other structures, such as a frame structure that is generally strip-shaped; the conveying component 20 may also be of other structures, such as a chain plate structure driven by a motor; the limiting protrusions 30 may also be of other structures, such as a semi-circular sheet structure; the arrangement direction of all the limiting protrusions 30 in each row of limiting protrusions 30 may also be at other angles with the conveying direction of the conveying component 20, such as 60°.

[0052] In some embodiments, the conveying assembly 20 further includes a second inclined section 244. In the direction of movement of the fruits and vegetables, the first inclined section 242 and the second inclined section 244 are arranged in sequence. The input end of the second inclined section 244 is connected to the output end of the first inclined section 242. The input end of the second inclined section 244 is higher than the output end of the second inclined section 244. The output end of the second inclined section 244 is located in the water storage tank 102.

[0053] With the above structure, fruits and vegetables pass through the first inclined section 242 and the second inclined section 244 in sequence on the conveying component 20 into the water storage tank 102; the input end of the second inclined section 244 is higher than the output end of the second inclined section 244, and the output end of the second inclined section 244 is located in the water storage tank 102, so that the fruits and vegetables can be carried into the water storage tank 102 containing liquid by the second inclined section 244, so as to avoid the fruit and vegetable surface hitting the liquid surface when the fruit and vegetable directly falls into the water storage tank 102, resulting in damage to the fruit and vegetable surface.

[0054] Specifically, in this embodiment, the inclination degree of the second inclined segment 244 is less than that of the first inclined segment 242. The water storage tank 102 can be a cuboid-like water tank, and the side walls of the water storage tank 102 can be formed by bending the sheet metal structure on the frame 10; a water inlet can be provided inside the water storage tank 102, and liquid outside the water storage tank 102 can be injected into the water storage tank 102 through the water inlet.

[0055] In other embodiments, the inclination of the second inclined segment 244 may be greater than that of the first inclined segment 242; the water storage tank 102 may also be other structures, such as a columnar structure with a semi-circular cross-section; the water storage tank 102 may also be injected with liquid in other ways, such as by extending an external water pipe into the water storage tank 102 and injecting liquid into the water storage tank 102 through the water pipe.

[0056] In some embodiments, the output of the second tilt segment 244 is higher than the input of the first tilt segment 242.

[0057] With the above structure, the output end of the second inclined section 244 is higher than the input end of the first inclined section 242, so that the length of the second inclined section 244 is shorter, reducing the total conveying length of the conveying assembly 20 and improving the conveying efficiency of the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism 100.

[0058] Specifically, the height of the side of the frame 10 located at the input end of the first inclined section 242 is lower than the height of the part of the frame 10 where the water storage tank 102 is provided, so that the output end of the second inclined section 244 is higher than the input end of the first inclined section 242.

[0059] In some embodiments, the conveying assembly 20 includes a driving component 22 and a conveyor belt 24. The conveyor belt 24 includes a first inclined section 242 and a second inclined section 244. The driving component 22 is mounted on the frame 10 and is located on the upper part of the frame 10. The conveyor belt 24 is mounted on the frame 10, and the driving component 22 is used to drive the conveyor belt 24 to move. A limiting protrusion 30 protrudes from the conveyor belt 24.

[0060] With the above structure, the conveyor belt 24 is easier to move relative to the frame 10, the surface of the conveyor belt 24 is relatively smooth, and the surface of the conveyor belt 24 is less likely to obstruct the fruits and vegetables from sliding down through the gap between two adjacent limiting protrusions 30, further reducing the possibility of the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism 100 being blocked due to excessive local fruits and vegetables in the conveying component 20.

[0061] Specifically, in this embodiment, the conveying assembly 20 may further include three rollers, one roller being installed at the input end of the first inclined section 242, another roller being installed at the connection between the first inclined section 242 and the second inclined section 244, and the third roller being installed at the output end of the second inclined section 244. The conveyor belt 24 may be fitted onto the rollers. The driving component 22 may be an electric motor, which is installed on the outer wall of the frame 10. The driving component 22 may drive the rollers to rotate, thereby moving the conveyor belt 24 relative to the frame 10.

[0062] In other embodiments, the drive component 22 may also be mounted in other locations, such as the top of the rack 10.

[0063] In some embodiments, the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism 100 further includes a water spraying assembly 40, which is mounted on the frame 10.

[0064] The water storage tank 102 is located below the output end of the second inclined section 244, and the water spraying assembly 40 is located between the output end of the second inclined section 244 and the bottom wall of the water storage tank 102; in the vertical direction, the angle between the water spraying direction of the water spraying assembly 40 and the conveying direction of the second inclined section 244 is an acute angle.

[0065] With the above structure, the water spraying assembly 40 can inject liquid into the water storage tank 102; in the vertical direction, the angle between the water spraying direction of the water spraying assembly 40 and the conveying direction of the second inclined section 244 is an acute angle, so that when the water spraying assembly 40 injects liquid into the water storage tank 102, the liquid sprayed by the water spraying assembly 40 can push the fruits and vegetables at the output end of the second inclined section 244, so as to prevent the fruits and vegetables entering the water storage tank 102 from falling into the water spraying assembly 40 and causing the water spraying assembly 40 to be blocked.

[0066] Specifically, in this embodiment, the water spraying assembly 40 may include multiple water spray heads arranged in parallel. The arrangement direction of all water spray heads is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying assembly 20. All water spray heads are connected to the same water pipe, and the water spray heads may penetrate the wall of the water storage tank 102.

[0067] In other embodiments, the water spray assembly 40 may also include only one spray head; or the number of spray heads may be multiple, each of which may be supplied with liquid by an independent water pipe.

[0068] Please refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the bottom wall of the water storage tank 102 includes an inclined wall structure 12 and a flow guide wall structure 14. In the direction of movement of fruits and vegetables, the inclined wall structure 12 and the flow guide wall structure 14 are arranged in sequence, and the inclined wall structure 12 is inclined upward; the end of the inclined wall structure 12 away from the conveying assembly 20 is higher than the flow guide wall structure 14.

[0069] The frame 10 includes a plurality of parallel guide bars 16, all of which are connected to the flow guide wall structure 14. A guide groove 104 is formed between two adjacent guide bars 16, and the guide groove 104 is connected to the water storage tank 102. In a direction parallel to the horizontal plane, the extension direction of the guide groove 104 is parallel to the movement direction of the fruits and vegetables.

[0070] With the above structure, the inclined wall structure 12 is tilted upward in the direction of fruit and vegetable movement; after the fruit and vegetables fall into the water storage tank 102, they will slowly fall towards the inclined wall structure 12. Under the pushing action of the liquid sprayed by the water spray component 40, the fruit and vegetables can move upward along the inclined wall structure 12 to avoid the fruit and vegetables moving too fast.

[0071] In addition, all guide strips 16 are connected to the flow guide wall structure 14, and a guide groove 104 is formed between two adjacent guide strips 16. The guide groove 104 guides the fruits and vegetables in the water storage tank 102 so that the fruits and vegetables in the water storage tank 102 can be evenly distributed in each guide groove 104, so that the fruits and vegetables can be evenly distributed when flowing out of the guide groove 104, reducing the possibility of blockage of the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism 100.

[0072] Specifically, the flow guide wall structure 14 can be a sheet of metal, and the height of the flow guide wall structure 14 can be adapted to the height of a fruit or vegetable to avoid excessive fruit or vegetable being stacked in a single guide groove 104.

[0073] In some embodiments, the frame 10 further includes a guide ramp 18, which is connected to the side of the flow guide wall structure 14 away from the conveying assembly 20 and is inclined downward in the direction of movement of the fruits and vegetables.

[0074] With the above structure, when the fruits and vegetables move to the guide slope 18, the guide slope 18 is used to guide the fruits and vegetables so that they can smoothly enter the next structure of the fruit and vegetable sorting device to avoid damage to the fruits and vegetables.

[0075] Specifically, in this embodiment, the guide ramp 18 is a rectangular sheet of metal arranged at an angle. In other embodiments, the guide ramp 18 may also be other structures, such as an arc-shaped sheet of metal.

[0076] Please refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the limiting protrusion 30 has a plate-like structure, and the length direction of the limiting protrusion 30 is perpendicular to the movement direction of the fruit and vegetable.

[0077] With the above structure, the limiting protrusion 30 has a plate-like structure, including two parallel side surfaces. Both parallel side surfaces are perpendicular to the moving direction of the fruits and vegetables, or the side surfaces of the limiting protrusion 30 can also form an acute angle with the moving direction of the fruits and vegetables. The distance between the two parallel side surfaces is the thickness of the limiting protrusion 30. The thickness of the limiting protrusion 30 is smaller than the dimensions in the length and width directions. The thickness of the limiting protrusion 30 can be set to be small, so that more limiting protrusions 30 can be set on the conveying component 20, thereby enabling the conveying component 20 to carry a larger amount of fruits and vegetables.

[0078] Specifically, in this embodiment, the limiting protrusion 30 is a rectangular sheet structure. In other embodiments, the limiting protrusion 30 may also have other structures, such as an arc-shaped sheet structure, so that a larger amount of fruits and vegetables can be abutted within the same limiting protrusion 30.

[0079] Please refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism 100 further includes a magnetic adsorption component 50, which is mounted on the frame 10 and located above the second inclined section 244.

[0080] With the above structure, when the conveying component 20 moves the fruits and vegetables to the second inclined section 244, the magnetic adsorption component 50 adsorbs iron-containing impurities mixed in the fruits and vegetables to remove some of the impurities.

[0081] Specifically, the magnetic adsorption component 50 may include a strip-shaped magnet. One end of the magnetic adsorption component 50 can be fixed to one side of the frame 10 by screws, and the other opposite end of the magnetic adsorption component 50 can be fixed to the other opposite side of the frame 10 by screws.

[0082] In some embodiments, in the conveying direction perpendicular to the conveying assembly 20, two adjacent rows of limiting protrusions 30 are staggered from each other, and any one limiting protrusion 30 is aligned with the gap between two adjacent limiting protrusions 30 in the adjacent row.

[0083] With the above structure, the adjacent rows of limiting protrusions 30 are staggered so that when there are too many fruits and vegetables on one limiting protrusion 30, the fruits and vegetables on the limiting protrusion 30 can fall through the gap between the two adjacent limiting protrusions 30. After falling, the fruits and vegetables can be supported by the limiting protrusion 30 below the gap between the two adjacent limiting protrusions 30, so as to avoid the fruits and vegetables falling too far and getting injured.

[0084] Specifically, in the same row of limiting protrusions 30, the width of the gap between two adjacent limiting protrusions 30 is smaller than the width of the limiting protrusion 30.

[0085] Another embodiment of this utility model provides a fruit and vegetable sorting device, including a fruit and vegetable conveying mechanism 100; the fruit and vegetable sorting device may further include a weighing module, a conveying module, and a sorting module; the weighing module is used to weigh the fruits and vegetables so that the fruit and vegetable sorting device can classify the fruits and vegetables according to their weight; the conveying module is used to transfer the fruits and vegetables between the various modules; the sorting module can output the fruits and vegetables to different output channels according to their weight or other information.

[0086] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it; under the concept of this utility model, the technical features of the above embodiments or different embodiments can also be combined, the steps can be implemented in any order, and there are many other variations of different aspects of this utility model as described above. For the sake of brevity, they are not provided in detail; although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
