Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of tea processing equipment, and in particular to a tray reversing mechanism with visual recognition and dynamic weighing. Background Technology

[0002] During the tea processing process, the tea conveyed on the docking conveyor enters the withering pallet elevator through the pallet reversing mechanism and is then lifted to the shelf-type tea withering conveyor.

[0003] Existing pallet reversing mechanisms on the market cannot weigh tea leaves, reducing the ease of use of the device. Furthermore, they require staff to identify the degree of greenness of the tea leaves, increasing the workload of the staff. Therefore, a pallet reversing mechanism with visual recognition and dynamic weighing is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

The bottom of the weighing sensor is fixed to the top of the crossbars at both ends of the reversing outer frame. One end of the weighing sensor is equipped with a connecting frame. The bottom ends of the docking conveyor line are fixed above the connecting frame. A base frame is provided inside the reversing outer frame. The lifting motor is installed inside the middle of the base frame. The telescopic end of the lifting motor is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting plate. The top ends of the lifting plate are fixedly connected to the bottom ends of the lifting and traversing conveyor line.

[0006] Preferably, the number of weighing sensors is multiple, with two weighing sensors provided above the crossbars at both ends of the reversing frame.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0021] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides an embodiment of a tray reversing mechanism with visual recognition and dynamic weighing, including a reversing outer frame 400, a camera 401, a weighing sensor 402, a lifting and traversing conveyor line 403, a lifting and traversing conveyor line motor 404, a lifting motor 405, a docking conveyor line 406, and a docking conveyor line motor 407. The weighing sensor 402 can weigh the tea leaves inside the transmission frame on the docking conveyor line 406. The bottom of the weighing sensor 402 is fixed to the top of the crossbars at both ends of the reversing outer frame 400. One end of the weighing sensor 402 is equipped with a connecting bracket 421. The bottom ends of the docking conveyor line 406 are fixed to the connecting bracket 421. Above the receiving frame 421, when the transmission frame on the RFID docking conveyor line is transferred to the docking conveyor line 406, the weight of the tea inside the transmission frame can be detected according to the change in the value of the weighing sensor 402. The reversing outer frame 400 is equipped with a base frame 409. The lifting motor 405 is installed inside the middle of the base frame 409. The telescopic end of the lifting motor 405 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting plate 410. The top of both ends of the lifting plate 410 is fixedly connected to the bottom of both ends of the lifting transverse conveyor line 403. The telescopic end of the lifting motor 405 can drive the lifting plate 410 to rise and fall. The rise and fall of the lifting plate 410 will drive the lifting transverse conveyor line 403 to rise and fall together.

[0023] The number of weighing sensors 402 is multiple. Two weighing sensors 402 are provided above the crossbars at both ends of the reversing frame 400. The weighing sensors 402 are evenly distributed, which reduces the weighing error.

[0024] The output end of the docking conveyor motor 407 is connected to the internal rotating rod of the docking conveyor 406 via a coupling, and the docking conveyor motor 407 can drive the docking conveyor 406 to run.

[0025] Preferably, the output end of the lifting and traversing conveyor motor 404 is connected to the internal rotating rod of the lifting and traversing conveyor 403 via a coupling, so that the lifting and traversing conveyor motor 404 can drive the lifting and traversing conveyor 403 to run.

[0026] A middle connecting rod 411 is installed at the top of the middle of the reversing frame 400. A camera 401 is installed at the middle end of the middle connecting rod 411. The camera 401 takes pictures of the tea leaves inside the transmission frame. The captured images are recognized by a vision system, reducing the workload of the staff.

[0027] The lifting plate 410 is equipped with lifting guide rails 408 at the bottom of each of its four corners. The bottom of the lifting guide rails 408 is fixedly connected to the top of the four corners of the base frame 409. The lifting guide rails 408 can prevent the lifting plate 410 from shifting position when it is raised or lowered.

[0028] The docking conveyor line 406 and the RFID docking conveyor line are located at the same height, which facilitates the transmission of the transmission frame.

[0029] During operation, the conveyor frame filled with tea leaves is transferred from the RFID docking conveyor line to the docking conveyor line 406. The value on the weighing sensor 402 changes, and the weight of the tea leaves inside the conveyor frame can be detected based on the change in the value of the weighing sensor 402. When the docking conveyor line 406 transfers the conveyor frame filled with tea leaves to the set position, the extension end of the lifting motor 405 can drive the lifting plate 410 to rise and fall. The rise and fall of the lifting plate 410 will drive the lifting and traversing conveyor line 403 to rise and fall together. The lifting and traversing conveyor line 403 will transfer the conveyor frame to the drying tray lifting machine. This device has a high degree of automation and reduces the workload of the workers.

The components shown as units may or may not be physical units; that is, they may be located in one place or distributed across multiple network units. Some or all of the modules can be selected to achieve the purpose of this embodiment according to actual needs.

[0031] 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.
