Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging equipment technology, and in particular to an agricultural product packaging and conveying mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Before being sold, agricultural products generally need to go through steps such as picking, washing, sorting, and packaging. In the existing technology, the picked and washed agricultural products are placed on a conveyor belt for transportation. Workers select high-quality agricultural products from the conveyor belt for packaging. However, during the sorting process, agricultural products that do not meet the specifications (rotten or too small) will remain on the conveyor belt, causing trouble for downstream workers and increasing their labor intensity. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the problems in the existing technology, this utility model provides an agricultural product packaging and conveying mechanism, comprising:

[0004] First conveyor;

[0005] A support plate is connected to the side wall of the frame of the first conveyor, and the support plate is provided with a plurality of discharge holes;

[0006] Several feeding tubes are located below the support plate, and one end is connected to the feeding hole;

[0007] The storage box is located directly below the other end of the feed pipe;

[0008] The first conveyor is used to transport agricultural products that need to be packaged, the support plate is used to place packaging boxes, the discharge hole is used to put in agricultural products that do not meet the specifications, and they fall into the storage box through the discharge pipe.

[0009] Furthermore, the feed tube is arc-shaped.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes: a second conveyor for conveying the packaging boxes containing agricultural products.

[0011] Furthermore, the conveying direction of the second conveyor is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the first conveyor.

[0012] Furthermore, a motor is connected to the frame side wall of the second conveyor, the output end of the motor faces upward and is connected to a baffle;

[0013] The motor rotates the baffle to directly above the second conveyor to block the packaging box containing agricultural products, allowing workers to seal it. The motor then rotates the baffle to the side of the second conveyor, allowing it to continue being transported by the second conveyor.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the technical solution provided by this utility model are as follows: In this utility model, a support plate is connected to the side wall of the frame of the first conveyor for placing packaging boxes. Several feeding holes are opened on the support plate, and feeding pipes are connected to the feeding holes. Workers put agricultural products that meet the specifications into the packaging boxes and put agricultural products that do not meet the specifications into the feeding holes. The products enter the collection box through the feeding pipes for collection, so that agricultural products that do not meet the specifications can be collected in time and will not remain on the conveyor belt. This reduces interference for downstream workers when selecting packaged agricultural products and reduces the labor intensity of downstream workers.

[0015] In addition, a second conveyor is installed. Motors are connected to the side walls of the frame of the second conveyor. Baffles are connected to the output ends of the motors. When the staff places the packaging box on the second conveyor, the motor rotates the baffle to the top of the second conveyor, blocking the packaging box being conveyed. The staff then seals the packaging box containing agricultural products. After sealing, the motor rotates 90° in the opposite direction, rotating the baffle to the side of the second conveyor, so that the sealed packaging box can continue to be conveyed.

It is used only for the convenience of describing this application and for simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation of this application. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0023] It should also be noted that, in this embodiment, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components.

[0024] See Figures 1-3 An agricultural product packaging and conveying mechanism includes a first conveyor 1 and a second conveyor 7, both of which are existing belt conveyors. The main structure includes a frame, the foundation supporting the entire conveyor structure; a drive unit, including a motor and a reducer, to provide power and drive the belt; rollers, divided into drive rollers and idler rollers, the former connected to the drive unit and responsible for driving the belt, and the latter used to change the direction of the belt; idler rollers, supporting the belt, reducing friction during operation, and maintaining smooth belt operation; and the belt itself, the part that directly contacts and transports the material.

[0025] The first conveyor 1 is used to transport harvested agricultural products (fruits, vegetables, etc.). Support plates 2 are connected to the opposite sides of the frame of the first conveyor 1 along the length direction. The support plates 2 are used to place packaging boxes 6. Workers stand next to the support plates 2 and put the agricultural products that meet the specifications into the packaging boxes 6. Several discharge holes 3 are opened on the support plates 2. The discharge holes 3 are connected to the discharge pipes 4. The other end of the discharge pipes 4 is facing down. A collection box 5 is placed directly below the other end of the discharge pipes 4. When workers select agricultural products, they put the agricultural products that do not meet the specifications into the discharge holes 3. The products enter the collection box 5 through the discharge pipes 4 for collection. This allows the agricultural products that do not meet the specifications to be collected in time and not left on the conveyor belt. This reduces interference for downstream workers when selecting and packaging agricultural products and reduces the labor intensity of downstream workers.

[0026] Furthermore, the feeding pipe 4 is arc-shaped. The arc shape of the feeding pipe 4 can reduce the falling speed and the falling impact force during feeding, and prevent the agricultural products from being damaged again when they fall into the storage box 5.

[0027] Furthermore, the conveying direction of the second conveyor 7 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the first conveyor 1. There can be multiple second conveyors 7, which are installed behind each workstation. After packaging is completed, the staff places the packaging box 6 on the second conveyor 7 for conveying.

[0028] Furthermore, each second conveyor 7 has a motor 8 connected to its frame side wall. The output end of the motor 8 faces upward and is connected to a baffle 9. The length of the baffle 9 is the same as the width of the second conveyor 7. When the worker places the packaging box 6 on the second conveyor 7, the motor 8 is started. The motor 8 rotates the baffle 9 to directly above the second conveyor 7, blocking the packaging box 6 being conveyed and preventing it from moving further. The worker next to the second conveyor 7 seals the packaging box 6 containing agricultural products with tape. After sealing, the motor 8 is started. The motor 8 rotates 90° in the opposite direction, rotating the baffle 9 to the side of the second conveyor 7, so that the sealed packaging box 6 can continue to be conveyed.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
