Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of turnstiles, specifically to an intelligent turnstile for agricultural product markets with weighing function. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous development of agricultural product markets and the advancement of modernization, the efficiency of agricultural product transactions and circulation has become a crucial aspect of market management. In traditional agricultural product markets, turnstiles, as a common access control device, are widely used to manage goods channels in order to regulate the entry and exit of goods and improve logistics efficiency. Through automated control, turnstiles can effectively restrict the passage of unauthorized goods while recording their entry and exit information. However, in practical applications, turnstiles still have functional limitations in the management of goods in agricultural product markets, making it difficult to meet the demands of modern markets for efficient and precise management.
[0003] Currently, most turnstiles on the market are designed for simple on / off control of cargo passages, typically limited to determining whether goods are allowed to pass through via sensors or identification. While these turnstiles play a role in basic cargo flow management, their design does not fully consider the specific needs of agricultural product trading scenarios. For example, existing turnstiles cannot weigh passing agricultural products, making it difficult for market managers to obtain real-time weight data as goods pass through. This lack of functionality not only increases the need for manual weighing, reducing logistics efficiency, but may also lead to inaccurate data recording. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a turnstile device that integrates weighing functionality to optimize cargo management processes in agricultural product markets and improve overall operational efficiency.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, this utility model provides an intelligent gate for agricultural product markets with weighing function. The intelligent gate includes: a housing 1, a transmission component 2, a weighing device 3, a basket 4, a blocking rod assembly 5, and a drive component 6. The housing 1 serves as the main structure of the entire gate, used to support and protect the internal components; the transmission component 2 is disposed inside the housing 1, used to move the basket 4; the weighing device 3 is disposed on the transmission component 2, used to measure the weight of agricultural products placed in the basket 4; the basket 4 is disposed on the weighing device 3, used to hold the agricultural products to be weighed; the drive component 6 is connected to the transmission component 2, used to provide power to drive the transmission component 2 to move; the blocking rod assembly 5 is movably disposed inside the housing 1, used to control the passage or obstruction of the basket 4.
[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, there are multiple baskets 4, which are arranged sequentially along the transmission path of the transmission component 2 to achieve continuous loading and weighing of agricultural products. The transmission component 2 drives the baskets 4 to rotate in a predetermined direction within the housing 1, while the blocking rod component 5 controls whether the baskets 4 can pass through a specific area of the housing 1 by changing its movement state, thereby achieving orderly cargo management.
[0031] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The housing 1 has a notch 13 for the basket 4 to extend out. The notch 13 is located on one side of the housing 1, allowing the basket 4 loaded with agricultural products or empty basket 4 to enter and exit. Meanwhile, another notch (not shown in the figure) is located on the back of the housing 1 opposite to the notch 13. This other notch is used to output the weighed basket 4 to the outside of the housing 1. The weighing device 3 may include a pressure sensor or an electronic scale, which is fixedly connected to the transmission assembly 2 and can output weight data in real time. The blocking bar assembly 5 may include at least one lifting or rotating blocking bar, which can mechanically or electrically block or allow the basket 4 to pass.
[0032] The intelligent gate is used as follows: First, the agricultural products to be weighed are placed in a basket 4 located at the notch 13. Then, the weighing device 3 weighs the agricultural products in the basket 4 and records the weight data. After weighing, the drive assembly 6 is activated, driving the transmission assembly 2 to move the basket 4 containing the agricultural products along the transmission path inside the casing 1 towards the back. Simultaneously, the blocking rod assembly 5 receives a control signal and executes an action, switching from a blocking state to a allowing state, permitting the basket 4 to pass. The basket 4, loaded with agricultural products and weighed, continues to move to another notch on the back of the casing 1 and extends out from this notch for manual removal of the agricultural products. At the same time, another empty basket 4 located on the transmission path is transmitted to the notch 13 and extends out, ready for the next loading and weighing operation. This cycle repeats, with multiple baskets 4 sequentially loading, weighing, and outputting agricultural products under the drive of the transmission assembly 2.
[0033] In this embodiment, the transmission component 2 includes a profile frame 21, an annular guide rail 22, a transmission belt assembly 23, and a slider 24. The profile frame 21 is disposed inside the housing 1 and serves as a support structure for the transmission component 2, used to fix and position other components. The annular guide rail 22 is fixedly connected to the profile frame 21, forming a closed annular sliding path. The transmission belt assembly 23 is laid along the inner side of the annular guide rail 22 to provide power transmission. The slider 24 is slidably mounted on the annular guide rail 22 and fixedly connected to the transmission belt assembly 23. The transmission of the transmission belt assembly 23 can drive the slider 24 to slide along the path of the annular guide rail 22.
[0034] Furthermore, the transmission belt assembly 23 includes a transmission belt body 231, a driving pulley 232, and three driven pulleys 233. The driving pulley 232 and the three driven pulleys 233 are rotatably connected to the profile frame 21 via bearings or shafts. The transmission belt body 231 forms a closed loop around the driving pulley 232 and the three driven pulleys 233. The driving pulley 232 is connected to the drive assembly 6 via a transmission shaft or coupling. The drive assembly 6 is preferably a servo motor or a stepper motor to provide precise rotation control. The transmission belt body 231 can be in the form of a rubber belt, chain, or synchronous belt to ensure stability and durability during transmission.
[0035] The slider 24 includes a base 241 and rollers 242 rotatably mounted on the bottom surface of the base 241. There are four rollers 242, respectively located at the four corners of the bottom surface of the base 241. The side of each roller 242 rolls in contact with the side wall of the annular guide rail 22 to reduce sliding friction and provide guidance. Simultaneously, the bottom surface of the base 241 slides in contact with the top surface of the annular guide rail 22 to bear the upper load. The upper surface of the base 241 supports the weighing device 3, and the upper surface of the weighing device 3 is fixedly connected to the basket 4, thus forming a complete transmission chain from the slider 24 to the basket 4.
[0036] The operation of the transmission component 2 is as follows: The drive component 6 starts and drives the active pulley 232 to rotate. The active pulley 232 drives the transmission belt body 231 to move along the annular path. The three driven pulleys 233 follow the rotation under the drive of the transmission belt body 231 to maintain the tension of the transmission belt body 231. The movement of the transmission belt body 231 drives the slider 24 through a fixed connection, causing the base 241 to slide on the annular guide rail 22. During this process, the roller 242 rolls and rotates with the side wall of the annular guide rail 22, thereby guiding the movement direction of the base 241 and ensuring its stable operation along the predetermined path. The sliding of the base 241 drives the weighing device 3 to move synchronously. The weighing device 3 further drives the basket 4 to run along the path of the annular guide rail 22, thereby realizing the transmission of the agricultural products loaded in the basket 4.
[0037] In this embodiment, the roller 242 effectively reduces the frictional resistance of the slider 24 when it moves on the annular guide rail 22, improving the smoothness and efficiency of transmission. The base 241 and the transmission belt body 231 can be firmly connected by bolts, clips, or welding to ensure the reliability of power transmission. The weighing device 3 may include a high-precision weighing sensor, which is installed between the base 241 and the basket 4, and can detect the weight of the agricultural products in the basket 4 in real time during transmission and transmit the data to an external display or control system. The path design of the annular guide rail 22 corresponds to the position of the notch 13 on the housing 1 and another notch on the back, so that the basket 4 can pass through the loading area, weighing area and output area in sequence during transmission.
[0038] In this embodiment, the drive assembly 6 includes a motor 61 and a drive shaft 62. The motor 61 is fixedly installed inside the housing 1, and its output end is connected to the drive shaft 62 via a coupling or key. The other end of the drive shaft 62 is fixedly connected to the drive pulley 232. When the motor 61 is started, its output end drives the drive shaft 62 to rotate, which in turn drives the drive pulley 232 to rotate, thereby providing power input to the transmission belt assembly 23. Preferably, the motor 61 can be a servo motor or a DC motor, and is equipped with a reducer to provide stable speed and sufficient torque.
[0039] Furthermore, the drive assembly 6 also includes a first gear 63, a second gear 64, a drive shaft 65, a first sprocket 66, a second sprocket 67, and a drive chain 68, for transmitting power to the stop bar assembly 5. The first gear 63 is fixedly connected to the drive shaft 62 via a key or welding; the drive shaft 65 is rotatably mounted on the profile frame 21 via bearings; the second gear 64 is fixedly connected to the drive shaft 65, and the first gear 63 and the second gear 64 mesh with each other to form a gear transmission mechanism; the first sprocket 66 is fixedly connected to the drive shaft 65 via a key. The stop bar assembly 5 includes a rotating shaft 51 and a stop bar 52 perpendicular to the rotating shaft 51. The rotating shaft 51 is rotatably mounted inside the housing 1 via bearings; the second sprocket 67 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 51 via a key; and the drive chain 68 surrounds the first sprocket 66 and the second sprocket 67 and meshes with them to form a chain transmission mechanism.
[0040] The working process of the drive assembly 6 and the stop rod assembly 5 is as follows: When the motor 61 starts and drives the drive shaft 62 to rotate, the drive shaft 62 drives the transmission belt assembly 23 to run through the drive pulley 232, and drives the first gear 63 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the first gear 63 drives the second gear 64 to rotate through meshing, and the second gear 64 in turn drives the transmission shaft 65 to rotate. The rotation of the transmission shaft 65 causes the first sprocket 66 to rotate accordingly. The first sprocket 66 transmits power to the second sprocket 67 through the transmission chain 68, driving the second sprocket 67 to rotate. The rotation of the second sprocket 67 drives the rotating shaft 51 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 51 in turn drives the stop rod 52 to rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 51, thereby realizing the drive control of the stop rod 52.
[0041] like Figure 3 and Figure 7As shown, the baffles 52 are arranged longitudinally within the housing 1, and three rows are set along the transmission path of the basket 4. The number and spacing of each row of baffles 52 are designed according to the size of the basket 4 and the transmission requirements. The rotation of the baffles 52 can change their relative position with the basket 4: when the baffle 52 rotates, it will cancel the obstruction of the current basket 4, allowing it to continue moving along the transmission assembly 2; at the same time, the next row of baffles 52 will block the next basket 4, preventing it from passing too early. The rotation of the three rows of baffles 52 can be controlled by the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 51 to achieve step-by-step action. For example, by setting multiple rotating shafts 51 to connect different second sprockets 67 respectively, and linking them with the transmission chain 68, the orderly blocking and release of multiple baskets 4 can be achieved.
[0042] In this embodiment, the baffle 52 can be made of metal or high-strength plastic to balance durability and lightweight. Furthermore, the drive assembly 6 can be electrically connected to a control system (not shown in the figure) to precisely control the start and stop of the motor 61 and the rotation sequence of the baffle 52 through a preset program, thereby coordinating with the operating states of the transmission assembly 2 and the weighing device 3.
[0043] In this embodiment, a display panel 11 and a camera 12 are provided on the front side of the housing 1 to further enhance the functionality and intelligence of the intelligent gate. The display panel 11 is fixedly installed on the front side of the housing 1. The display panel 11 is an LCD screen or a touch screen, used to display in real time the weight data of agricultural products measured by the weighing device 3, the transmission status of the basket 4, and equipment operating parameters. The camera 12 is installed on the front side of the housing 1 near the notch 13, with its lens facing the basket 4, used to photograph the basket 4 located at the notch 13 or moving along the transmission assembly 2 and the agricultural products loaded inside it.
[0044] The camera 12 operates as follows: After the basket 4 is placed on the weighing device 3 and weighing is completed, the camera 12 is activated and captures images of the basket 4, recording the appearance characteristics of the agricultural products inside, such as type, quantity, or stacking status. The camera 12 can be a high-resolution industrial camera and is equipped with a light source (not shown in the figure) to ensure clear images are obtained under different lighting conditions. The captured image data can be transmitted to an external control system or storage device via wired or wireless means for subsequent goods verification, data archiving, or traceability management.
[0045] Furthermore, the display panel 11 is electrically connected to the weighing device 3 and the camera 12, enabling the integrated display of weighing results and image information. For example, after the weighing device 3 completes the weight measurement of the agricultural products in the basket 4, the weight data is transmitted to the display panel 11 through internal circuitry and displayed in real time; simultaneously, the image captured by the camera 12 can be synchronously displayed on the display panel 11, allowing operators to intuitively confirm the status of the agricultural products. If the display panel 11 is a touchscreen, it can also have interactive functions, such as adjusting the display content, starting the device, or setting parameters through touch operation.
[0046] The specific embodiments described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications, combinations, sub-combinations, and substitutions can be made according to design requirements and other factors. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
