Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of material feeding chutes, and more particularly to a material feeding chute for a color sorter. Background Technology

[0002] A color sorter is a device that uses photoelectric technology to automatically separate discolored particles from granular materials. It is widely used in industries such as food, chemical, and mining. During the color sorting process, the material needs to enter the color sorting zone from the feeding device. After color sorting, qualified materials and discolored materials are discharged through different discharge channels. As a key component connecting the color sorting zone and the discharge port, the design of the discharge chute directly affects the overall performance and material processing efficiency of the color sorter. Traditional color sorter discharge chutes have some problems, such as poor material sliding, easy blockage, and significant damage to the material. These problems limit the application range and performance improvement of color sorters. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the problems of traditional color sorter feeding chutes, such as poor material flow, easy clogging, and significant material damage, which limit the application range and performance improvement of color sorters, this application provides a color sorter feeding chute.

[0004] The color sorter feeding chute provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A color sorter feeding chute includes a rectangular feeding tube, the bottom surface of which is provided with an inclined guide tube, the outlet end of which is connected to a first baffle and a second baffle, and a downwardly inclined discharge plate is provided between the first baffle and the second baffle. The rectangular feeding tube is provided with a rotating rod inside, and a roller is sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating rod. The outer wall of the roller has two symmetrically distributed grooves.

[0006] Preferably, one end of the rotating rod passes through a rectangular feed tube and extends outward to connect to the output end of a motor.

[0007] Preferably, the inner walls of the rectangular feed tube and the oblique guide tube are both made of a smooth and wear-resistant material.

[0008] Preferably, the top surface of the discharge plate is covered with an elastic pad.

[0009] Preferably, the top surface of the rectangular feeding tube is provided with a rectangular mounting frame, and each of the four corners of the top surface of the rectangular mounting frame is provided with a circular hole. The rectangular mounting frame is connected to the feeding end of the color sorter through screws inside the circular holes.

[0010] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:

[0011] 1. The motor output drives the rotating rod to rotate, which in turn drives the roller to rotate. The roller then drives the two grooves to rotate. The rotation of the two grooves can adjust the speed and flow rate of the material entering the inclined guide tube, ensuring that the material passes through the inclined guide tube evenly and stably and slides out of the discharge tube.

[0012] 2. The inner walls of the rectangular feed tube and the inclined guide tube are made of smooth and wear-resistant material to reduce friction and damage to the material during the downward slide. An elastic pad is laid on the top surface of the discharge plate. The discharge plate and the elastic pad are set at the outlet end of the inclined guide tube to slow down the falling speed of the material and prevent the material from being damaged or blocked due to impact.

[0019] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.

[0020] This application discloses a material feeding chute for a color sorter, referring to... Figures 1-4The device includes a rectangular feeding pipe 1, with an inclined guide pipe 4 fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the rectangular feeding pipe 1. A first baffle 5 and a second baffle 501 are fixedly connected to the outlet end of the inclined guide pipe 4. A downwardly inclined discharge plate 6 is fixedly mounted between the first baffle 5 and the second baffle 501. A rotating rod is rotatably mounted inside the rectangular feeding pipe 1. A roller 7 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the rotating rod. Two symmetrically distributed grooves 8 are opened on the outer wall of the roller 7. One end of the rotating rod passes through the rectangular feeding pipe 1 and extends outward to be connected to the output end of a motor 3. The output end of the motor 3 drives the rotating rod to rotate, which in turn drives the roller 7 to rotate. The rotation of the roller 7 drives the two grooves 8 to rotate. The rotation of the two grooves 8 can adjust the speed and flow rate of the material entering the inclined guide pipe 4, ensuring that the material slides out of the discharge plate 6 evenly and stably through the inclined guide pipe 4.

[0021] Reference Figures 4-5 The inner walls of the rectangular feed tube 1 and the inclined guide tube 4 are made of smooth and wear-resistant materials to reduce friction and damage to the material during the downward slide. The top surface of the discharge plate 6 is covered with an elastic pad. The discharge plate 6 and the elastic pad are set at the outlet end of the inclined guide tube 4 to slow down the falling speed of the material and prevent the material from being damaged or blocked due to impact.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 A rectangular mounting frame 2 is fixedly provided on the top surface of the rectangular feeding tube 1. The four corners of the top surface of the rectangular mounting frame 2 are provided with round holes 10. The rectangular mounting frame 2 is installed with the feeding end of the color sorter through the screws inside the round holes 10.

[0023] The implementation principle of the material feeding chute of the color sorter in this embodiment is as follows: In use, the rectangular mounting frame 2 is installed with the feeding end of the color sorter through the screws inside the round hole 10. The output end of the motor 3 drives the rotating rod to rotate, which in turn drives the roller 7 to rotate. The rotation of the roller 7 drives the two grooves 8 to rotate. The rotation of the two grooves 8 can adjust the speed and flow rate of the material entering the inclined guide tube 4, ensuring that the material slides out of the discharge plate 6 evenly and stably through the inclined guide tube 4. During the material feeding process, the inner walls of the rectangular feeding tube 1 and the inclined guide tube 4 are made of smooth and wear-resistant material to reduce friction and damage to the material during the downward slide. An elastic pad is laid on the top surface of the discharge plate 6. The discharge plate 6 and the elastic pad are set at the outlet end of the inclined guide tube 4 to slow down the falling speed of the material and prevent the material from being damaged or blocked due to impact.
