The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious variations will occur to those skilled in the art. The basic principles of the present invention defined in the following description can be applied to other embodiments, modifications, improvements, equivalents, and other technical solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

[0030] See Figures 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a sorting device, including a diversion cylinder 100 arranged in a vertical direction, with an inlet and an outlet arranged sequentially at the top and bottom of the diversion cylinder 100, and a good product collection component 200 and a defective product collection component 300 respectively arranged on both sides in the horizontal direction below the diversion cylinder 100, with an inlet at the top of both the good product collection component 200 and the defective product collection component 300;

[0031] The line connecting the good product collection component 200 and the defective product collection component 300 is the diversion direction A. The side of the diversion direction A facing the good product collection component 200 is the good product side A1, and the side of the diversion direction A facing the defective product collection component 300 is the defective product side A2.

[0032] In the vertical direction, a diversion plate 400 is provided between the outlet of the diversion cylinder 100 and the inlet of the good product collection component 200, and between the outlet of the diversion cylinder 100 and the inlet of the defective product collection component 300. The upper end surface of the diversion plate 400 is divided into a good product guide surface 401 and a defective product guide surface 402 on both sides in the diversion direction A. Both the good product guide surface 401 and the defective product guide surface 402 are inclined. The height of the good product guide surface 401 and the height of the defective product guide surface 402 gradually decrease and increase near the connection between the two surfaces.

[0033] The diversion plate 400 is movably connected between the good product collection component 200 and the defective product collection component 300 in a manner along the diversion direction A. The diversion plate 400 has at least two working states, namely the good product diversion state and the defective product diversion state.

[0034] See Figure 1When the diversion plate 400 is in the good product diversion state, the good product guide surface 401 is set opposite to the outlet of the diversion cylinder 100, and the good product side A1 of the good product guide surface 401 corresponds to the inlet of the good product collector 200.

[0035] See Figure 2 When the diversion plate 400 is in the defective product diversion state, the defective product guide surface 402 is set opposite to the outlet of the diversion cylinder 100, and the defective product side A2 of the defective product guide surface 402 corresponds to the inlet of the defective product collection component 300.

[0036] This sorting device improves product sorting efficiency by setting a guide plate 400 between the outlet of the diversion cylinder 100 and the inlet of the collection structure. By switching the position of the diversion plate 400 in the diversion direction A, products falling through the diversion cylinder 100 can be guided into the good product collection piece 200 via the good product guide surface 401 or into the defective product collection piece 300 via the defective product guide surface 402. The good product collection piece 200 and the defective product collection piece 300 provide support for the diversion plate 400, enabling the diversion plate 400 to move smoothly.

[0037] This sorting device can automatically classify qualified / unqualified products and make them fall into the required sorting position automatically.

[0038] The connection between the good product guide surface 401 and the defective product guide surface 402 extends upward to form a vertical plate 500. The vertical plate 500 is located inside the diversion cylinder 100. When the diversion plate 400 is in the good product diversion state, the diversion plate 400 is in contact with the defective product side A2 of the inner wall of the diversion cylinder 100. When the diversion plate 400 is in the defective product diversion state, the diversion plate 400 is in contact with the good product side A1 of the inner wall of the diversion cylinder 100. By adding the vertical plate 500, the vertical plate 500 can guide the product in the diversion cylinder 100 in advance, ensuring that the diversion plate 400 below it can provide a stable guiding effect for the product. Furthermore, the top of the vertical plate 500 is set close to the inlet of the diversion cylinder 100.

[0039] The good product side A1 and the defective product side A2 of the diversion plate 400 both extend outward in the horizontal direction to form a support plate 600. The top of the good product collector 200 and the top of the defective product collector 300 are both provided with a groove 601 that matches the support plate 600. The diversion plate 400 is configured to slide in the groove 601 through the support plate 600. The upper end face of the support plate 600, the upper end face of the good product collector 200 and the upper end face of the defective product collector 300 are flush. During the switching of the working state of the diversion plate 400, the groove 601 acts like a track, so that the diversion plate 400 can move smoothly in the direction therein.

[0040] A driving component 700 is provided between the defective product collection component 300 and the diversion plate 400 or between the good product collection component 200 and the diversion plate 400. The driving component 700 drives the diversion plate 400 so that the diversion plate 400 can move in the diversion direction A, thereby realizing the switching of the working state of the diversion plate 400. In this embodiment, the driving component 700 is a telescopic cylinder. The telescopic cylinder is arranged along the diversion direction A. The telescopic cylinder is provided with a movable end and a fixed end. The fixed end of the telescopic cylinder is connected to the defective product collection component 300. The movable end of the telescopic cylinder is provided with a limiting plate 701. The limiting plate 701 is arranged in the vertical direction. The outer side of the good product collection component 200 is provided with a limiting seat 702. The outer side of the limiting seat 702 is provided with a limiting groove arranged along the diversion direction A. The limiting plate 701 and the limiting groove are slidably connected.

[0041] When the diverter plate 400 is in the good product diversion state, the limiting plate 701 abuts against the defective product side A2 of the limiting groove. When the diverter plate 400 is in the defective product diversion state, the limiting plate 701 abuts against the good product side A1 of the limiting groove, thereby limiting the extension / retraction of the cylinder. When the inspected product is qualified, the telescopic cylinder retracts, as shown in the figure. Figure 1 When the diverter plate 400 switches to the good product diversion state, the product enters the good product collection component along the good product guide surface 401 of the diverter plate 800, the diverter cylinder 100, and the diverter plate 400; when the inspected product is unqualified, the telescopic cylinder extends, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the diverter plate 400 switches to the defective product diversion state, and the product enters the defective product collection component 300 along the guide plate 800, the diverter cylinder 100 and the defective product guide surface 402 of the diverter plate 400.

[0042] In other embodiments, the drive unit 700 is operated by a motor to improve the versatility of the solution.

[0043] In this embodiment, the product processed by the sorting device is a propeller shaft, that is, the product is cylindrical;

[0044] The inlet of the diverter 100 is provided with a guide plate 800 on one side of the diversion direction A. The upper surface of the guide plate 800 is inclined, and the height of the upper surface of the guide plate 800 gradually decreases as it approaches the inlet of the diverter 100, so as to guide the product entering the inlet of the diverter 100.

[0045] See Figure 3Furthermore, to enhance the guiding effect of the guide plate 800 and the diverter plate 400 on the device, the upper ends of the guide plate 800 and the upper ends of the diverter plate 400 extend upward on both sides in the width direction to form baffles 900. An elastic limiting pad 901 is provided on the opposite side of the baffle 900. The elastic limiting pad 901 is configured to contact both ends in the product axis direction, so that the product can move along a fixed route.

[0046] See also Figure 3 Furthermore, the baffle 900 corresponding to the good product guide surface 401 and the baffle 900 corresponding to the defective product guide surface 402 have an inner side surface near the connection between the good product guide surface 401 and the defective product guide surface 402 as an inclined surface 902. The distance between the inclined surfaces 902 gradually increases near the connection between the good product guide surface 401 and the defective product guide surface 402, and a falling area 902a is formed between the inclined surfaces 902. The falling area 902a corresponds to the outlet of the diverter 100.

[0047] The sorting device also includes a controller and a flaw detector. The controller is connected to the drive unit 700, and the flaw detector is configured to detect flaws in products before they enter the diversion tube 100. The flaw detector is electrically connected to the controller and can transmit signals to the controller based on the flaw detection results. The controller controls the diversion plate 400 to move, and based on the detection results, the products can be moved along a planned route to the good product collection unit 200 or the defective product collection unit 300 respectively.

[0048] How to use:

[0049] Taking the sorting of propeller shafts as an example, the shafts to be inspected are cylindrical. The shafts are inspected on the assembly line using a flaw detector. After inspection, the flaw detector outputs a good or defective signal to the controller. The inspected shafts then enter the guide plate 800 along the assembly line. The controller is connected to a telescopic cylinder to control its extension and retraction, thereby controlling the movement of the diverter plate 400. When the inspected shaft is a defective product, the controller controls the telescopic cylinder to extend, at which point the diverter plate 400 switches to... In the defective product diversion state, the defective product shaft enters the defective product collection unit 300 along the guide plate 800, the diversion cylinder 100 and the diversion plate 400. The upper end face of the guide plate 800 and the upper end face of the diversion plate 400 are sloped to facilitate the shaft to roll along the slope. When the detected shaft is a good product, the controller controls the telescopic cylinder to retract. At this time, the diversion plate 400 switches to the good product diversion state, and the good product enters the good product collection unit 200 along the guide plate 800, the diversion cylinder 100 and the diversion plate 400.

[0050] The embodiments described above are only used to illustrate the technical ideas and features of this utility model. Their purpose is to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of this utility model and implement it accordingly. The scope of patent application of this utility model should not be limited by these embodiments. That is, any equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit disclosed in this utility model still fall within the patent scope of this utility model.
