Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical automation technology, and more specifically to a high-speed flipping conveyor mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Badminton is widely used in sports and leisure activities. Because airflow has a significant impact on the trajectory of a badminton shuttlecock during use, the feathers used on each shuttlecock must have identical characteristics during the manufacturing process. This necessitates a feather sorting device to classify and sort the feathers.

[0003] A badminton feather sorting machine is a specialized device for sorting and screening feathers. The feathers are introduced into the sorting machine through a feeding channel. The sorting machine uses a high-speed camera or other visual inspection device to detect the feathers and analyzes and interprets them through image processing algorithms. Through image processing algorithms, the sorting machine extracts the features of the feathers and classifies and sorts them according to pre-set standards and classification rules. Different categories of feathers are then output to the corresponding collection devices through guide plates.

[0004] Chinese Patent CN114682503B discloses a feather sorting machine for badminton shuttlecock production. This machine includes a support base fixedly connected to the top outer wall of a support leg. The top outer wall of the support base is sequentially equipped with a feather guiding mechanism, a feather conveying mechanism, and a feather sorting mechanism. In the feather conveying mechanism, conveyor belts AA and AB are used to convey the feathers, with the top horizontal plane of conveyor belt AA being higher than that of conveyor belt AB. Conveyor belts AA and AB have identical structures. A rotating impeller is rotatably connected to the inner wall of one side of a mounting plate via a rotating shaft. One end of the rotating impeller is fixedly connected to a main gear rotatably connected to the inner wall of one side of the mounting plate. Two auxiliary gears rotatably connected to the inner wall of one side of the mounting plate are arranged on the outer wall of the main gear. Transmission gears are arranged on the outer wall of the auxiliary gears, with one end of each transmission gear fixed to the connection end of conveyor belts AA and AB, respectively.

[0005] However, the method of using a rotating impeller to directly flip the feathers in the badminton production feather splitting machine will affect the posture of the feathers during the flipping process, and thus affect the accuracy of the detection of the feather shape and specifications, which needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of this, the purpose of this application is to provide a high-speed flipping conveyor mechanism to improve feather conveying efficiency and sorting accuracy. The specific solution is as follows:

[0007] A high-speed flipping conveyor mechanism includes a front conveyor belt, a back conveyor belt located below the front conveyor belt, and a flipping sleeve; wherein:

[0008] The front conveyor belt and the back conveyor belt run in opposite directions;

[0009] The flipping sleeve is fixed to the end of the front conveyor belt in the direction of travel, and has openings at the upper and lower ends for feathers to enter and exit.

[0010] The front conveyor belt is provided with multiple equally spaced front spacer ribs, and a front spacer groove for placing feathers is formed between two adjacent front spacer ribs. The front spacer ribs are used to match the flipping sleeve and prevent the feathers from falling out of the front spacer groove.

[0011] Preferably, the back conveyor belt is provided with multiple equally spaced back spacer ribs, and a back spacer groove matching the feather is formed between two adjacent back spacer ribs; the back spacer groove is used to match the front spacer groove vertically.

[0012] Preferably, both the front conveyor belt and the back conveyor belt are driven by corresponding motors, and each of the front or back conveyor belts is equipped with a proximity switch. The proximity switch is used to monitor the position of the corresponding front or back spacer ribs and drive the corresponding motor to control the back spacer slot to match the front spacer slot.

[0013] Preferably, the front conveyor belt or the back conveyor belt is driven by a motor, and a meshing gear set for linkage drive is provided between the front conveyor belt and the back conveyor belt.

[0014] Preferably, the upper side of the flipping sleeve is provided with an upwardly inclined feeding guide, and the lower side is provided with a downwardly inclined discharging feed.

[0015] Preferably, the flip-up sleeve is provided with a horizontal groove, which is used to insert pins or bolts and connect and fix them to the front conveyor belt.

[0016] As can be seen from the above solution, this application provides a high-speed flipping conveyor mechanism, which has the following beneficial effects: the front conveyor belt is used to continuously operate and drive the feathers forward, and the front spacing groove between two adjacent front spacing ribs effectively limits the feathers, preventing the feathers from falling out of the corresponding front spacing groove. When the feathers move to one end of the flipping sleeve, the flipping sleeve restricts the feathers from falling out of the corresponding front spacing groove. As the feathers move from the upper side to the lower side of the front conveyor belt, the flipping sleeve supports the feathers, thereby cooperating with the front spacing ribs on the front conveyor belt to push the feathers forward. At this time, the feathers will be gradually pushed onto the back conveyor belt located below the front conveyor belt as the front spacing ribs move, and the back conveyor belt will drive the feathers to move further forward, thereby significantly improving the feather conveying efficiency and sorting accuracy.

[0020] To make the technical solution and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. Example

[0021] like Figure 1As shown, a high-speed flipping conveyor mechanism includes a front conveyor belt 1, a back conveyor belt 2 located at the lower end of the front conveyor belt 1, and a flipping sleeve 3. Both the front conveyor belt 1 and the back conveyor belt 2 convey feathers from the upper side. In this embodiment, to achieve a matching degree of operation between the front conveyor belt 1 and the back conveyor belt 2, their operating directions are opposite. Based on the structural configuration of the end of the front conveyor belt 1, a flipping sleeve 3 with a matching shape and specifications is appropriately fixed to the end of the front conveyor belt 1 in the operating direction, and openings matching the front conveyor belt 1 are formed at the upper and lower ends of the flipping sleeve 3 for feathers to enter and exit.

[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a plurality of equally spaced front spacer ribs 11 are provided on the front conveyor belt 1. A front spacer groove 12 for placing feathers is formed between two adjacent front spacer ribs 11, and the front spacer ribs 11 are used to match with the flipping sleeve 3 and prevent the feathers from falling out of the front spacer groove 12. At the same time, a plurality of equally spaced back spacer ribs 21 are provided on the back conveyor belt 2, and a back spacer groove 22 matching the feathers is formed between two adjacent back spacer ribs 21. In order to improve the stability of the feathers when flipping during the conveying process, the back spacer groove 22 in Embodiment 1 of this application is matched vertically with the front spacer groove 12, so that after the feathers are conveyed to the part matching the flipping sleeve 3 by the front conveyor belt 1, they are lifted by the flipping sleeve 3 and pushed by the front spacer ribs 11, so that the feathers move through the opening located at the lower end of the flipping sleeve 3 into the matching back spacer groove 22 and continue to be conveyed by the back conveyor belt 2.

[0023] It should be mentioned that in Embodiment 1 of this application, both the front conveyor belt 1 and the back conveyor belt 2 are driven by corresponding motors 23, and the front conveyor belt 1 or the back conveyor belt 2 is equipped with a proximity switch 13. The proximity switch 13 is used to monitor the position of the corresponding front spacer 11 or back spacer 21, and drive the corresponding motor 23 to control the back spacer slot 22 to match the front spacer slot 12.

[0024] like Figure 2 As shown, an upwardly inclined feed guide 31 is provided on the upper side of the flipping sleeve 3, and a downwardly inclined discharge feed 32 is provided on the lower side of the flipping sleeve 3. The feed guide 31 effectively guides the feathers into the inner side of the flipping sleeve 3 along with the front conveyor belt 1, preventing the feathers from shifting position and affecting the feather conveying. The discharge feed 32 is used to effectively guide the feathers into the back detection unit, thereby preventing the front spacer 11 from continuing to push the feathers and affecting the automated feather conveying and feeding effect.

[0025] Meanwhile, in order to effectively adjust the distance between the flipping sleeve 3 and the front conveyor belt 1, a horizontal groove 33 is provided on the flipping sleeve 3. The horizontal groove 33 is used to insert pins or bolts and connect and fix it to the front conveyor belt 1. Therefore, by adjusting the position of the pins or bolts in the horizontal groove 33, the distance between the flipping sleeve 3 and the front conveyor belt 1 can be effectively adjusted and controlled, thus adapting to the sorting needs of feathers of different specifications and models. Example

[0026] The difference between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 is that in Embodiment 2, the front conveyor belt 1 or the back conveyor belt 2 is driven by a motor 23, and a meshing gear set for linkage drive is provided between the front conveyor belt 1 and the back conveyor belt 2. The meshing gear set consists of two meshing gears, which are respectively connected to the output end of the motor 23 and the transmission end of the front conveyor belt 1 or the back conveyor belt 2, which will not be described in detail here.

[0027] In summary, this application provides a high-speed flipping conveyor mechanism. This mechanism uses a front conveyor belt 1 for continuous operation to move feathers, and front spacing grooves 12 between two adjacent front spacing ribs 11 effectively limit the feathers, preventing them from detaching from the corresponding front spacing grooves 12. When the feathers move to one end of the flipping sleeve 3, the flipping sleeve 3 restricts the feathers from detaching from the corresponding front spacing grooves 12. As the feathers move from the upper side to the lower side of the front conveyor belt 1, the flipping sleeve 3 supports the feathers, thus cooperating with the front spacing ribs 11 on the front conveyor belt 1 to push the feathers forward. At this time, the feathers will be gradually pushed onto the back conveyor belt 2 located below the front conveyor belt 1 as the front spacing ribs 11 move. With the operation of the back conveyor belt 2, the feathers will be moved further, thereby significantly improving the feather conveying efficiency and sorting accuracy.
