[0026] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0027] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.

[0028] A sorting and identification device for large and small balls and plastic chip round tags, such as Figure 1-6 As shown, it includes a main frame 14, a ball guide hopper 21 is provided at the top of the main frame 14, a mesh plate 22 is connected to one side of the ball guide hopper 21 by screws, and a push plate 23 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the mesh plate 22. The ball guide hopper 21, the mesh plate 22 and the push plate 23 together form a primary sorting machine.

[0029] The main frame 14 has an antenna 2 and an antenna cover 1 at its top. The main frame 14 has a bearing 15 fixedly connected to its bottom. The bearing 15 has a bearing fastener 16 fixedly connected to its surface. The main frame 14 has a motor frame 17 fixedly connected to its bottom. The motor frame 17 has a motor 18 fixedly connected to its bottom. This forms a two-stage sorting machine. Specifically, through primary physical sorting and secondary intelligent identification, it effectively achieves rapid and automated sorting of large balls, small balls, and plastic chip round plates. Through the combination of the ball guide hopper 21 and the mesh sheet metal 22, it achieves size screening of materials with different diameters, effectively preventing problems such as large balls clogging and small balls being missed.

[0030] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 4 The main frame 14 has a base plate 13. The top of the base plate 13 is fixedly connected to an inner limiting plate 11 and an outer limiting plate 12. The top of the inner limiting plate 11 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 10. The top of the rotating shaft 10 is fixedly connected to a turntable 9. The output shaft of the motor 18 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 10, so that the motor 18 can drive the rotating shaft 10 and the turntable 9 to rotate. The middle section of the main frame 14 has an upper pressure plate 8. The four corners of the main frame 14 are equipped with guide plates 3. The top of the guide plate 3 is fixedly connected to a fixing clamp 4. The top of the guide plate 3 is fixedly connected to a stirring tube 5 through the fixing clamp 4. The top of the turntable 9 is fixedly connected to a circular guide piece 6.

[0031] Specifically, in the secondary sorting mechanism, the motor 18 drives the rotating shaft 10 and the turntable 9 to rotate continuously. The small balls and plastic chip tokens fall from above onto the surface of the turntable 9. Guided by the stirring tube 5 and the circular guide 6, they smoothly enter the multiple circular holes on the turntable 9 and then fall onto the surface of the base plate 13. As the turntable 9 and the push rod 7 rotate in conjunction, the circular holes carrying the small balls and tokens move on the base plate 13. When the circular holes move to the corresponding positions of the circular through holes on the base plate 13, the small balls can fall directly through the holes and slide into the ball guide channel 19 through the corresponding holes of the main frame 14, thus achieving precise sorting of the small balls.

[0032] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The main frame 14 has a ball guide channel 19 and a plastic chip disc guide channel 20 at its bottom. The ball guide hopper 21 has a small ball opening 24 at its top and a large ball outlet 25 on one side. The inner wall of the ball guide hopper 21 is fixedly connected to a slant bar 26. Specifically, large balls, small balls and plastic chip discs are first evenly placed on the surface of the push plate 23 and the material is pushed to the ball guide hopper 21. When the material passes through the mesh sheet metal 22, some small balls will fall directly from the small ball holes on the mesh sheet metal 22 into the ball guide channel 19 below due to their small size, thus achieving preliminary sorting. As the material continues to move forward, the remaining large balls, small balls and plastic chip discs enter the ball guide hopper 21. The large balls are guided to the large ball outlet and discharged under the support of the slant bar of the ball guide hopper 21, thus completing the sorting of large balls. The small balls and plastic chip discs slide down from the gap in the middle of the slant bar and enter the subsequent secondary sorting mechanism.

[0033] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When in use, large balls, small balls and plastic chip round plates are first evenly placed on the surface of the push plate 23, and the material is pushed to the ball guide hopper 21. When the material passes through the mesh plate 22, some small balls will fall directly from the small ball hole on the mesh plate 22 into the ball guide channel 19 below due to their small size, thus achieving preliminary sorting. When the material continues to be pushed, the remaining large balls, small balls and plastic chip round plates enter the ball guide hopper 21. The large balls are guided to the large ball outlet and discharged under the support of the inclined rod of the ball guide hopper 21, thus completing the sorting of large balls. The small balls and plastic chip round plates slide down from the gap in the middle of the inclined rod and enter the subsequent secondary sorting mechanism.

[0034] In the secondary sorting mechanism, the motor 18 drives the rotating shaft 10 and the turntable 9 to rotate continuously. The small balls and plastic chip round plates fall from above onto the surface of the turntable 9. Under the guidance of the stirring tube 5 and the circular guide 6, they smoothly enter the multiple round holes on the turntable 9 and then fall onto the surface of the base plate 13. As the turntable 9 and the push rod 7 rotate in linkage, the round holes carrying the small balls and round plates move on the base plate 13. When the round holes move to the corresponding positions of the circular through holes on the base plate 13, the small balls can fall directly through the holes and slide into the ball guide channel 19 through the corresponding holes of the main frame 14, thus achieving precise sorting of the small balls.

[0035] Due to size limitations, the plastic chip round plate cannot pass through the hole in the base plate and will continue to remain in the round hole of the turntable 9. Under the push of the push rod 7, it enters the limiting channel formed by the inner limiting plate 11 and the outer limiting plate 12. The antenna 2 is set above the running path of the round plate and continuously transmits identification signals during the running of the round plate. When the chip round plate responds and sends a feedback signal, the antenna 2 completes the identification process and uploads the data to the system.

[0036] Subsequently, the chip round cards that did not fall off continued to run along the limiting channel. When they reached the card dispensing notch position set on the base plate 13, they were pushed out from the notch of the base plate 13 by the combined action of the push rod 7 and the guide boss on the main frame 14. They then entered the plastic chip round card guide channel 20 through the card dispensing notch of the main frame 14 and were sorted after identification.

[0037] This device can achieve continuous, efficient and automatic sorting of large balls, small balls and plastic chip round plates. At the same time, the size of the round holes and notches on the sheet metal structure is adjustable to adapt to different specifications of balls and round plates, enhancing the versatility and practicality of the equipment.

The specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make modifications, substitutions, and variations to the embodiments as needed without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, provided that such modifications, substitutions, and variations are within the scope of the claims of the present invention and are protected by patent law.
