Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of peeling machine technology, and in particular to a sorting mechanism for a corn peeling machine. Background Technology
[0002] Corn peeling machines are important pieces of equipment in the field of agricultural machinery. They are mainly used to remove the outer husks of corn ears to improve corn processing efficiency. The sorting outlet, as a key component of the peeling machine, directly affects the separation effect, cleanliness, and production efficiency of the peeled corn.
[0003] A search revealed Chinese patent CN219844126U, which discloses a corn peeling machine with a sorting mechanism. The machine includes a sorting box, and a pusher block is movably mounted on the mounting base. Through the design of the adjustable cylinder, mounting base, and first sorting roller, the machine coordinates with the pusher block. Adjusting the cylinder's extension rod pushes the mounting base, which in turn pushes the pusher block, first fixed seat, and second fixed seat against the third and fourth fixed plates, causing the first and second sorting rollers to open. This allows for adjustment of the first and second sorting rollers as needed, facilitating corn sorting during transport. This eliminates the need for manual sorting of corn of different sizes after peeling, thus improving corn processing efficiency and reducing labor costs.
[0004] Based on the above search results combined with existing technologies, the findings were as follows:
[0005] While the aforementioned patent can achieve the sorting of peeled corn, it can only sort according to the size of the corn. It cannot effectively screen for poorly developed or defective corn, which means that it still needs to be sorted later. Therefore, it has certain limitations. Utility Model Content
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model proposes a sorting mechanism for a corn peeling machine, which, combined with existing visual recognition technology, can achieve a fast and excellent sorting effect for peeled corn.
[0007] The technical solution to achieve the purpose of this utility model is: a sorting mechanism for a corn peeling machine, including a peeling machine body, a mounting base is provided on the side of the peeling machine body near the feeding port, a feeding plate is fixedly installed at one end of the mounting base, and a sorting component is also included.
[0008] Sorting assembly, which is disposed on the surface of the mounting base.
[0009] The sorting assembly includes a pair of support plates, a drive shaft and a driven shaft are rotatably mounted between the pair of support plates, a conveyor belt is sleeved between the drive shaft and the driven shaft, a servo motor is fixedly mounted on the surface of the mounting base, and a pair of V-shaped transmission belts are sleeved between the drive shaft and the output shaft of the servo motor.
[0010] In some embodiments, a U-shaped mounting bracket is fixedly installed on the surface of the mounting base near the feed plate, and a visual recognition device is fixedly installed on the bottom of the U-shaped mounting bracket.
[0011] In some embodiments, multiple sets of mounting blocks are symmetrically fixedly mounted on the surfaces of a pair of support plates, and a limiting slide bar is fixedly mounted between each set of mounting blocks.

[0012] In some embodiments, a plurality of electric telescopic rods are fixedly installed on one side of one of the support plates, and the telescopic rod of each electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to a corresponding sorting plate. A protective cover is fixedly installed on one side of the support plate near the electric telescopic rod.
[0013] In some embodiments, a plurality of sorting ports are fixedly provided on one side of another support plate, and a plurality of sorting boxes are fixedly installed on one side of the mounting base near the sorting ports, with the positions of the sorting boxes corresponding to the sorting ports. A defective product collection box is fixedly installed on the mounting base at the end of the conveyor belt.
[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the significant advantages of this invention are:
[0015] Firstly, this utility model utilizes existing visual recognition technology to quickly screen corn, facilitating identification based on corn size and other factors. This allows for the control of multiple electric telescopic rods carrying sorting plates, enabling efficient and effective sorting of peeled corn. This significantly reduces transmission and sorting time and improves corn sorting efficiency.

[0025] The present invention will now be described in detail, and the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0026] This utility model provides an improved sorting mechanism for a corn peeling machine. The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0027] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a sorting mechanism for a corn peeling machine includes a peeling machine body 1. A mounting base 2 is provided on the side of the peeling machine body 1 near the feeding port. A feeding plate 3 is fixedly installed on one end of the mounting base 2. The machine also includes a sorting component. The mounting base 2 provides a stable mounting foundation for the sorting component, ensuring that the sorting component can operate smoothly.
[0028] The sorting component is disposed on the surface of the mounting base 2.
[0029] The sorting assembly includes a pair of support plates 4, with a drive shaft 7 and a driven shaft 8 rotatably mounted between the two support plates 4. A conveyor belt 9 is fitted between the drive shaft 7 and the driven shaft 8. A servo motor 10 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the mounting base 2. A pair of V-shaped transmission belts 11 are fitted between the output shaft of the drive shaft 7 and the output shaft of the servo motor 10. The servo motor 10 and the V-shaped transmission belts 11 can stably drive the conveyor belt 9 to work, which facilitates the conveying of peeled corn and thus facilitates the automatic sorting effect.
[0030] Furthermore, a U-shaped mounting bracket 5 is fixedly installed on the surface of the mounting base 2 near the feed plate 3, and a visual recognition device 6 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the U-shaped mounting bracket 5. The existing visual recognition device 6 can effectively identify the peeled corn, which facilitates the excellent sorting effect of the corn and greatly improves the sorting efficiency.
[0031] Furthermore, multiple sets of mounting blocks 17 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the surfaces of a pair of support plates 4. Each set of mounting blocks 17 is fixedly installed with a limiting slide bar 18. A sorting plate 14 is slidably installed between each pair of adjacent limiting slide bars 18. The limiting slide bars 18 can play an auxiliary limiting role in the movement of the sorting plate 14, ensuring that the sorting plate 14 moves normally, thereby ensuring the smooth progress of the sorting work.
[0032] Furthermore, multiple electric telescopic rods 15 are fixedly installed on one side of one of the support plates 4. The telescopic rod of each electric telescopic rod 15 is fixedly connected to the corresponding sorting plate 14. A protective cover 16 is fixedly installed on one side of the support plate 4 near the electric telescopic rod 15. The electric telescopic rod 15 can move the sorting plate 14, thereby facilitating the rapid sorting of different corn based on the results of visual recognition.
[0033] Furthermore, multiple sorting ports 19 are fixedly opened on one side of another support plate 4, and multiple sorting boxes 12 are fixedly installed on one side of the mounting base 2 near the sorting ports 19. The positions of the sorting boxes 12 correspond to the sorting ports 19. A defective collection box 13 is fixedly installed at the end of the conveyor belt 9 on the mounting base 2. Different varieties of corn can be separated and collected through the sorting boxes 12.
[0034] The specific working method is as follows: The corn to be peeled is placed into the main body 1 of the peeling machine. After peeling, it enters the conveyor belt 9 through the feed plate 3. The peeled corn is identified by the vision recognition device 6, which makes a reasonable judgment on the quality of the corn. The vision recognition device 6 is an existing technology and can achieve a stable and accurate recognition effect. After the vision recognition device 6 has identified the corn, the electric telescopic rod 15 is controlled by the external control board. When the identified corn enters the moving range of the sorting plate 14, the electric telescopic rod 15 moves the sorting plate 14, which facilitates pushing the corn into the sorting box 12, achieving a fast sorting effect. Some defective products are directly conveyed to the defective product collection box 13 for unified processing later. Thus, this device can achieve a highly efficient sorting effect and greatly shorten the sorting time.
[0035] The technical means disclosed in this utility model are not limited to those described above, but also include technical solutions composed of equivalent substitutions of the above technical features. Matters not covered in this utility model are common knowledge to those skilled in the art.
