Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an egg tray guide structure. Background Technology

[0002] To improve the stability of egg storage, egg trays are generally used. Egg trays have multiple slots on their surface for placing eggs, making placement very convenient. After use, egg trays can be washed and reused. During cleaning, egg trays are typically placed directly on a conveyor belt, which transports them sequentially into the cleaning equipment. However, because the cleaning equipment usually uses high-pressure water, the impact of the high pressure can cause the egg trays to wobble and become unstable, leading to displacement, falling, or overlapping, thus affecting the cleaning process. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention improves upon the above-mentioned problems by providing an egg tray guiding structure that is simple in structure and easy to use, thereby preventing the egg tray from being displaced by high-pressure water jets and affecting work efficiency.

[0004] This utility model is constructed as follows: it includes a frame and an upper guide rail assembly and a lower guide rail assembly disposed on the frame. The upper guide rail assembly includes two spaced-apart upper guide rails, and the lower guide rail assembly includes two spaced-apart lower guide rails. A limiting space is formed between the corresponding upper and lower guide rails to limit the egg tray. A chain conveying mechanism is disposed between the two lower guide rails. Multiple push plates are spaced apart on the surface of the chain conveying mechanism to push the egg tray to move.

[0005] Furthermore, an upper reinforcing plate is provided between the two upper guide rails, and a lower reinforcing plate is provided between the two lower guide rails.

[0006] Furthermore, the frame is equipped with a cleaning device, which includes a cleaning chamber. The chain conveyor mechanism, the upper guide rail, and the lower guide rail are located in the cleaning chamber. High-pressure water pipes are installed above the upper guide rail and below the lower guide rail. Multiple high-pressure nozzles facing the egg tray are installed on the high-pressure water pipes, and the multiple high-pressure nozzles face different directions.

[0007] Furthermore, the cleaning chamber is provided with a feed inlet and a discharge outlet on both sides, and the input end of the chain conveyor mechanism passes through the feed inlet and extends outward.

[0008] Furthermore, an egg tray collection device is provided at the discharge port of the cleaning chamber.

[0009] Furthermore, the egg tray collection device includes a collection rack and two retractable trays disposed on the upper inner side of the collection rack, the two trays being used to support the egg tray.

[0010] Furthermore, limit plates are provided on both sides above the collection rack, and sliding grooves are provided on the limit plates. The tray is located in the sliding groove and can move along the sliding groove. A cylinder mounting seat is provided on the outside of the limit plate, and a cylinder is provided on the cylinder mounting seat to drive the tray to move.

[0011] Furthermore, a liftable bracket is provided at the bottom inside the collection rack.

[0012] Furthermore, the bracket is driven to move up and down by a bracket cylinder.

[0013] Furthermore, a stop bar is provided on the side of the collection rack away from the chain conveyor mechanism.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: The device has a simple structure, reasonable design, and is easy to use. The egg tray to be cleaned is conveyed to the cleaning chamber by a chain conveyor mechanism. A pusher plate on the chain conveyor mechanism pushes the egg tray into the cleaning chamber. The front and rear parts of the egg tray slide within the limiting space between two upper and lower guide rails. The high-pressure nozzles of the cleaning equipment perform high-pressure cleaning on the surface of the egg tray. During the cleaning process, the powerful water jets from the high-pressure nozzles impact the upper and lower surfaces of the egg tray. Because the egg tray is confined within the limiting space of the upper and lower guide rails, it will not rise to the surface. The downward swing mechanism prevents displacement caused by water flow, which could affect cleaning operations. Cleaned egg trays enter the collection rack, where they are supported by two trays. A cylinder then drives the trays to retract, causing them to fall onto a lower rack inside the collection rack. The trays then reset to receive new egg trays, and this cycle repeats. Once a certain number of egg trays have fallen onto the rack, the cylinder drives the trays to retract, and the rack cylinder drives the rack and the stacked egg trays on it to move upwards, removing the egg trays from the collection rack for easy removal.

[0020] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0021] Example: Figure 1-5 As shown, in this embodiment, an egg tray guiding structure is provided, including a frame 1 and an upper guide rail group 2 and a lower guide rail group 3 disposed on the frame. The upper guide rail group includes two upper guide rails 21 spaced apart front to back, and the lower guide rail group includes two lower guide rails 31 spaced apart front to back. A limiting space 4 is formed between the corresponding upper and lower guide rails to limit the egg tray. The limiting spaces on the front and back sides are used to limit the upper and lower directions of the two sides of the egg tray. The two sides of the egg tray can move along the length direction of the limiting space. A chain conveying mechanism 5 is disposed between the two lower guide rails. Multiple push plates 51 are spaced apart on the surface of the chain conveying mechanism to push the egg tray to move. The upper guide rail is limited and slidably engaged with the upper sliding groove on the upper surface of the egg tray, and the lower guide rail is limited and slidably engaged with the lower sliding groove on the lower surface of the egg tray.

[0022] During operation, egg trays to be cleaned are conveyed to the cleaning chamber by a chain conveyor mechanism. A pusher plate on the chain conveyor mechanism pushes the egg trays into the cleaning chamber. The front and rear parts of the egg trays slide within the limiting space between two upper and lower guide rails. The high-pressure nozzles of the cleaning equipment perform high-pressure cleaning on the surface of the egg trays. During the cleaning process, the powerful water jets from the high-pressure nozzles impact the upper and lower surfaces of the egg trays. Because the egg trays are confined within the limiting space of the upper and lower guide rails, they do not swing up and down, and the impact of the water jets would cause displacement, affecting the cleaning operation. After cleaning, the egg trays enter the collection rack, where they are supported by two trays. Then, a cylinder drives the trays to retract, causing them to fall downwards onto a lower rack inside the collection rack. The trays then reset to receive new egg trays, and this cycle repeats. When a certain number of egg trays have fallen onto the rack, the cylinder drives the trays to retract, and the rack cylinder drives the rack and the stacked egg trays on it to move upwards, removing the egg trays from the collection rack for easy removal.
