Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of belt conveyors, and more particularly to an automatic sorting device for belt conveyors. Background Technology

[0002] Belt conveyors, as a type of conveying equipment widely used in various industries, play an important role in the assembly, inspection, debugging, packaging and transportation of objects. In practical applications, it is often necessary to sort the materials on the conveyor belt according to the usage requirements.

[0003] However, when belt conveyors are used to transport various types of materials, the differences in their characteristics (such as shape, size, density, and intended use) often necessitate sorting. Manual sorting is difficult to guarantee in terms of accuracy, and prolonged repetitive labor can easily lead to worker fatigue, resulting in sorting errors. Once sorting errors occur, they not only affect product quality but may also cause problems in subsequent production processes, increasing production costs.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors believe that belt conveyors have the drawback of being inconvenient for sorting materials when conveying different materials. Therefore, an automatic sorting device for belt conveyors is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the problem of inconvenience in sorting materials when conveying different materials using belt conveyors, this application provides an automatic sorting device for belt conveyors.

[0006] The automatic sorting device for a belt conveyor provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An automatic sorting device for a belt conveyor includes a belt conveyor with a conveyor belt on its upper surface. A drive motor is installed at one end of the belt conveyor. A detection device is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the belt conveyor near the drive motor. A sorting hopper is located in the middle of one side of the belt conveyor. A fixed groove is formed in the middle of the other side of the belt conveyor. A material distribution baffle is rotatably installed on one end of the inner wall of the fixed groove. A connecting plate is installed above the fixed groove through a hinge shaft of the material distribution baffle. A fixed sliding groove is formed through the upper surface of the connecting plate. A fixed frame is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the belt conveyor near the connecting plate. A sliding mechanism is also provided inside the fixed frame for controlling the angle adjustment of the material distribution baffle.

[0008] Preferably, the sliding mechanism includes a lead screw, which is rotatably mounted on the top of the fixed frame. A servo motor is provided on one side of the lead screw on the outer surface of the fixed frame. A guide rod is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed frame near the lead screw. A movable part is sleeved on the outer surface of the lead screw and the guide rod. A fixed rod is welded to the middle of the bottom end of the movable part.

[0009] Preferably, a placement slot is provided on one side of the belt conveyor near the sorting hopper, and an electric telescopic rod is provided on the outer surface of the belt conveyor near the placement slot. A connecting block is installed at the output end of one side of the electric telescopic rod, and a limit baffle is installed on one side of the connecting block extending into the placement slot.

[0010] Preferably, the outer diameter of the fixing rod is smaller than the distance between the two sides of the inner wall of the fixing groove, one end of the fixing rod extends into the interior of the fixing groove, and the fixing groove and the fixing rod are interlocked.

[0012] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:

[0013] 1. By setting up detection equipment, the materials on the conveyor belt can be detected. With the cooperation of sliding mechanism and material dividing baffle, the angle of the material dividing baffle can be automatically adjusted according to the different characteristics of the materials, so that different materials are sorted to different paths, which greatly improves sorting efficiency and accuracy and reduces errors and labor intensity of manual sorting.

[0014] 2. The components such as the lead screw, servo motor, guide rod, and moving parts in the sliding mechanism work together to precisely control the angle change of the material distribution baffle, which can adapt to the sorting needs of different types of materials, making the device highly flexible and versatile.

[0015] 3.

[0020] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0021] This application discloses an automatic sorting device for a belt conveyor. (Refer to...) Figure 1-3 An automatic sorting device for a belt conveyor includes a belt conveyor 1, a conveyor belt 2 on the upper surface of the belt conveyor 1, a drive motor 3 on one end of the belt conveyor 1, a detection device 19 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the belt conveyor 1 near the drive motor 3, a sorting hopper 4 in the middle of one side of the belt conveyor 1, a fixed groove 5 in the middle of the other side of the belt conveyor 1, a material distribution baffle 6 rotatably installed on one end of the inner wall of the fixed groove 5, a connecting plate 7 installed above the fixed groove 5 through the hinge shaft of the material distribution baffle 6, a fixed slide groove 8 through the upper surface of the connecting plate 7, and a fixed frame 9 fixedly installed on the outer surface of the belt conveyor 1 near the connecting plate 7. The fixed frame 9 also has a sliding mechanism inside for controlling the angle adjustment of the material distribution baffle 6.

[0022] By starting the belt conveyor 1, the drive motor 3 drives the conveyor belt 2 to rotate, and the material is placed on the conveyor belt 2 for conveying. When the material is conveyed to the detection device 19, the detection device 19 detects the characteristics of the material and transmits the detection signal to the control system. The control system determines the type of material based on the received detection signal, and then issues a command to start the servo motor 11, which in turn adjusts the material distribution baffle 6 to a suitable angle. When the material reaches the material distribution baffle 6, different materials are guided to different paths according to the angle of the material distribution baffle 6 and fall into the corresponding sorting hopper 4.

[0023] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The sliding mechanism includes a lead screw 10, which is rotatably mounted on the top of the fixed frame 9. A servo motor 11 is installed on one side of the lead screw 10 on the outer surface of the fixed frame 9. A guide rod 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed frame 9 near the lead screw 10. A movable part 13 is sleeved on the outer surface of the lead screw 10 and the guide rod 12. A fixed rod 14 is welded to the middle of the bottom end of the movable part 13. The outer diameter of the fixed rod 14 is smaller than the distance between the two sides of the inner wall of the fixed slide groove 8. One end of the fixed rod 14 extends into the interior of the fixed slide groove 8. The fixed slide groove 8 and the fixed rod 14 are interlocked. A threaded hole is opened through one side of the movable part 13. One side of the outer surface of the lead screw 10 is located inside the threaded hole. A through hole is opened through one side of the movable part 13 near the threaded hole. One side of the outer surface of the guide rod 12 is located in the through hole.

[0024] The servo motor 11 is activated. The servo motor 11 drives the lead screw 10 to rotate. Since the threaded hole on the movable part 13 is engaged with the external thread of the lead screw 10, the movable part 13 moves on the lead screw 10. At the same time, the guide rod 12 ensures the stability of the movement of the movable part 13. The movement of the movable part 13 drives the connecting plate 7 and the material distribution baffle 6 to rotate around the hinge axis through the fixed rod 14.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 A placement trough 15 is provided on one side of the belt conveyor 1 near the sorting hopper 4. An electric telescopic rod 16 is provided on the outer surface of the belt conveyor 1 near the placement trough 15. A connecting block 17 is installed at the output end of one side of the electric telescopic rod 16. A limit baffle 18 is installed on one side of the connecting block 17 extending into the placement trough 15.

[0026] The electric telescopic rod 16 can be extended or shortened as needed, and the limiting baffle 18 can be moved by the connecting block 17 to limit the sorting path of materials and control the opening and closing of the sorting bucket 4 after use.

[0027] The implementation principle of the automatic sorting device for a belt conveyor in this application embodiment is as follows: After the belt conveyor is started, the drive motor 3 drives the conveyor belt 2 to rotate, and the material is placed on the conveyor belt 2 for conveying. When the material is conveyed to the detection device 19, the detection device 19 detects the characteristics of the material and transmits the detection signal to the control system.

[0028] The control system determines the type of material based on the received detection signal and then issues a command to start the servo motor 11. The servo motor 11 drives the lead screw 10 to rotate. Since the threaded hole on the movable part 13 is engaged with the external thread of the lead screw 10, the movable part 13 moves on the lead screw 10. At the same time, the guide rod 12 ensures the stability of the movement of the movable part 13. The movement of the movable part 13 drives the connecting plate 7 and the material distribution baffle 6 to rotate around the hinge axis through the fixed rod 14, adjusting the material distribution baffle 6 to a suitable angle.

[0029] When the material reaches the dividing baffle 6, different materials are guided to different paths according to the angle of the dividing baffle 6 and fall into the corresponding sorting hopper 4. During this process, the electric telescopic rod 16 can be extended or shortened as needed, and the limiting baffle 18 is moved through the connecting block 17 to limit the sorting path of the material and control the opening and closing of the sorting hopper 4 after use, thereby realizing the automatic sorting of different materials on the conveyor belt 2.
