Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vegetable sorting technology, and in particular to a quick-frozen vegetable sorting device. Background Technology
[0002] Edamame, a common quick-frozen vegetable, requires sorting primarily to remove impurities and damaged parts, and to ensure that edamame of different sizes are frozen evenly. Due to the varying shapes and sizes of edamame, traditional manual sorting is not only inefficient but also susceptible to human error. To improve production efficiency and product quality, the use of mechanized sorting devices is crucial. These devices typically use mechanical structures such as screens, vibrations, and rollers to automatically classify and remove impurities based on the size, appearance, and quality of the edamame. Mechanized sorting not only reduces labor costs but also improves the sorting accuracy of edamame, ensuring the high quality of quick-frozen edamame.
[0003] An investigation revealed that a Chinese utility model patent discloses a quick-frozen edamame sorting device (publication number: CN212493871U). Although the aforementioned patent has rubber balls inside the sieve plate, which effectively prevent the mesh of the upper and lower sieves from clogging during the operation of the sieve plate by impacting the lower and upper sieves with the rubber balls, the contact between the rubber balls and the edamame may cause the edamame to be impacted and squeezed when sorting the edamame. Although the rubber balls are relatively soft, they may still cause pressure damage or cracking to the surface of the edamame. After long-term operation, the rubber balls may wear down, lose elasticity or crack, resulting in a weakened cleaning effect. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0025] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example
[0026] Refer to attached figure Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 5 This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which provides a quick-frozen vegetable sorting device, including a processing structure 1, a sorting structure 2, an anti-blocking structure 3, and a collection box 4. The sorting structure 2, the anti-blocking structure 3, and the collection box 4 are installed inside the processing structure 1. The processing structure 1 includes a sorting box 11, a box door 12, a support leg 13, and a feeding port 14. The support leg 13 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the sorting box 11, the box door 12 is installed on one side of the sorting box 11, and the feeding port 14 is fixedly installed at the top of the sorting box 11. A guide plate 15 is fixedly installed inside the feeding port 14.
[0027] The sorting structure 2 includes a sorting frame 21, a screening plate 22, a connecting shaft 23, a chute 24, and a fixing frame 26. The sorting frame 21 is located inside the sorting box 11. The screening plate 22 is installed at the bottom of the sorting frame 21. The connecting shaft 23 is fixedly installed at both ends of the sorting frame 21. The chute 24 is respectively opened on both sides of the sorting box 11. The connecting shaft 23 extends through the chute 24 to the outside of the sorting box 11, and the connecting shaft 23 and the chute 24 are slidably connected. A circular column 25 is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting shaft 23 extending outside the sorting box 11. The fixing frame 26 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the sorting box 11. A first motor 27 is fixedly installed on the fixing frame 26. A cam 28 is fixedly installed on the motor shaft of the first motor 27. The cam 28 contacts the circular column 25. A limiting block 29 is installed at the bottom of the sorting frame 21 to limit the screening plate 22. The collection box 4 is installed on the bottom wall inside the sorting box 11.
[0028] During use, edamame is poured into the sorting box 11 through the feed inlet 14 and falls onto the screening plate 22. The edamame is dispersed into the sorting box 11 by the guide plate 15 to prevent it from accumulating in the middle of the screening plate 22. The first motor 27 is started, and the motor shaft of the first motor 27 drives the cam 28 to rotate. The cam 28 contacts the circular column 25, causing the circular column 25 to drive the connecting shaft 23 to slide up and down in the slide groove 24. The connecting shaft 23 drives the screening plate 22 to reciprocate through the sorting frame 21, thereby sorting the edamame. The sorted edamame falls into the collection box 4 for collection. Example
[0029] Refer to attached figure Figure 6 and attached Figure 7 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which differs from the first embodiment in that:
[0030] The anti-clogging structure 3 includes a lead screw 301, a second motor 302, a slide bar 303, and a mounting plate 304. The lead screw 301 is rotatably mounted inside the sorting box 11, the slide bar 303 is fixedly mounted inside the sorting box 11, the second motor 302 is fixedly mounted on the outside of the sorting box 11, and the motor shaft of the second motor 302 is fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw 301. One end of the mounting plate 304 is penetrated by the lead screw 301 and threadedly connected to it. The other end of the mounting plate 304 is penetrated by the slide bar 303 and slidably connected to it. The mounting plate 304 is equipped with... A first electric push rod 305 has a telescopic end fixedly mounted with an insert plate 307. An insert rod is fixedly mounted at the bottom end of the insert plate 307. The diameter of the insert rod is smaller than the aperture of the screening plate 22. A guide rod 306 is fixedly mounted at the top end of the insert plate 307. The guide rod 306 passes through the mounting plate 304 and extends to the top end of the mounting plate 304. The guide rod 306 and the mounting plate 304 are slidably connected. Fixing plates 308 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the mounting plate 304. A second electric push rod 309 is fixedly mounted on the fixing plate 308. A scraper 310 is fixedly mounted at the telescopic end of the second electric push rod 309.
[0031] During operation, when edamame beans fall into the sorting frame 21, the second motor 302 is activated. The motor shaft of the second motor 302 drives the lead screw 301 to rotate. The lead screw 301 controls the mounting plate 304 to slide on the slide bar 303. The mounting plate 304 drives the fixing plate 308 to move, activating the second electric push rod 309. The telescopic end of the second electric push rod 309 drives the scraper 310 to descend, further dispersing the edamame beans accumulated in the sorting frame 21 and improving sorting efficiency. After the edamame sorting is complete, the sorting frame 21 stops vibrating. Take out the edamame collected in the collection box 4, and then rotate the limiting block 29 so that the limiting block 29 releases the limiting block 29 on the screening plate 22. The screened edamame in the sorting frame 21 falls into the collection box 4 for collection. Then the screening plate 22 is limited again. When the edamame is blocked in the aperture of the screening plate 22, the first electric push rod 305 is activated. The extension end of the first electric push rod 305 drives the insert plate 307 to move. The insert plate 307 drives the insert rod to descend. The insert rod extends into the aperture of the screening plate 22 to squeeze out the edamame and keep the screening plate 22 unobstructed.
