Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vegetable sorting technology, specifically a vegetable sorting and packaging device. Background Technology
[0002] Vegetable sorting refers to the process of classifying, selecting, and organizing different types of vegetables according to certain standards and requirements.
[0003] When sorting spherical vegetables such as tomatoes, they need to be classified according to their size and graded. In most cases, farmers classify them by visual estimation, which can lead to eye strain and decreased sorting efficiency after a long period of sorting. Therefore, a vegetable sorting and packaging device is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a vegetable sorting and packaging device, which has the advantage of improving the efficiency of sorting spherical vegetables by size, and solves the problem that farmers' eyesight is easily blurred after long-term sorting, resulting in a gradual decline in sorting efficiency.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a vegetable sorting and packaging device, including a base, a drive motor fixedly installed at the rear end of the upper surface of the base, a transmission rod driven at the front end of the drive motor, and a third sorting cylinder;
[0006] The third sorting cylinder is mounted on the drive rod;
[0007] The second sorting cylinder is movably fitted onto the outer side of the third sorting cylinder;
[0008] The first sorting cylinder is movably fitted onto the outer side of the second sorting cylinder;
[0009] The first sorting cylinder, the second sorting cylinder, and the third sorting cylinder are respectively provided with a first discharge hole, a second discharge hole, and a third discharge hole on their outer walls;
[0010] Among them, the diameters of the first discharge hole, the second discharge hole, and the third discharge hole decrease in that order;
[0011] Among them, a limit sleeve is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder.
[0012] When using the vegetable sorting and packaging device of this technical solution, the drive motor on the base is started. The drive motor drives the first, second, and third sorting cylinders to rotate synchronously through the third limit frame on the transmission rod. The vegetables to be sorted are placed into the feeding hopper. The top of the feeding hopper is equipped with a feeding port to facilitate the injection of vegetables. The vegetables are fed into the third sorting cylinder through the feeding hopper. The outer wall of the third sorting cylinder is equipped with a third discharge hole. These holes have the smallest diameter, allowing only the smallest vegetables to pass through. After the smallest vegetables are discharged, the third sorting cylinder is pulled out along the second limit frame from one side of the baffle, so that the remaining vegetables enter the second sorting cylinder. The outer wall of the cylinder is provided with a second discharge hole. The diameter of these holes is larger than that of the third discharge hole, allowing larger vegetables to pass through. After the vegetables are discharged from the second sorting cylinder, the second sorting cylinder is pulled out by the first limit frame, while the largest vegetables are left in the first sorting cylinder. The outer wall of the first sorting cylinder is provided with a first discharge hole. The diameter of these holes is the largest, allowing all vegetables to pass through, while the larger vegetables are left in the first sorting cylinder. The limit sleeve is fixed to the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder to ensure the stable assembly of the multi-stage sorting cylinders. After sorting is completed, the drive motor is turned off, the sorting process is stopped, the multi-stage sorting cylinders and the filling hopper are cleaned, and preparation is made for the next sorting.
[0013] Preferably, a support frame is fixedly installed in the middle of the upper surface of the base, and the transmission rod passes through the support frame and is rotatably connected to the support frame.
[0014] By fixing a support frame to the middle of the upper surface of the base and having the drive rod pass through and rotatably connect to the support frame, the stability of the entire device can be increased. This design helps reduce vibration during transmission, improving sorting accuracy and efficiency.
[0015] Preferably, a baffle is fixedly installed at the end of the transmission rod away from the drive motor, the outer diameter of the baffle matches the inner diameter of the third sorting cylinder, and a third limiting frame is fixedly installed on the transmission rod on the side opposite to the baffle of the support frame.
[0016] A baffle is fixedly installed at the end of the transmission rod away from the drive motor. The outer diameter of the baffle matches the inner diameter of the third sorting cylinder. This design can prevent vegetables from falling between the transmission rod and the third sorting cylinder during the sorting process. At the same time, the setting of the third limit frame can further fix and stabilize the third sorting cylinder and reduce its movement during operation.
[0017] Preferably, the front end of the third limiting frame passes through the limiting sleeve fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder, and a material filling bin is rotatably installed on the transmission rod on the side of the third limiting frame opposite to the third sorting cylinder.
[0018] The front end of the third limiting frame passes through the limiting sleeve fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder. This design can ensure that the relative position between the third limiting frame and the first sorting cylinder is fixed.
[0019] Preferably, the top of the injection hopper is provided with an injection port, and a counterweight is fixedly installed at the bottom of the injection hopper.
[0020] The top of the filling chamber has a filling port for easy filling of vegetables, improving operational convenience. A counterweight is fixedly installed at the bottom of the filling chamber to increase its stability, prevent tilting or movement during filling, and ensure the accuracy and uniformity of filling.
[0021] Preferably, a second limiting frame is fixedly installed at the front end of the third sorting cylinder, and the rear end of the second limiting frame passes through a limiting sleeve fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder.
[0022] The front end of the third sorting cylinder is fixedly equipped with a second limiting frame, and the rear end of the second limiting frame passes through the limiting sleeve fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder. This design can ensure that the relative position between the second sorting cylinder and the first sorting cylinder is fixed, reduce movement during operation, and improve sorting accuracy.
[0023] Preferably, a first limiting frame is fixedly installed at the front end of the second sorting cylinder, and a limiting sleeve is fixedly installed through the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder at the rear end of the first limiting frame.
[0024] The front end of the second sorting cylinder is fixedly installed with a first limiting frame, and the rear end of the first limiting frame passes through a limiting sleeve fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder. This design can ensure that the relative position between the second sorting cylinder and the first sorting cylinder is fixed, reduce movement during operation, and improve the accuracy and stability of sorting.
[0025] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0026] This invention features a third sorting cylinder movably mounted on a transmission rod, with a second sorting cylinder movably mounted on its outer side, and a first sorting cylinder movably mounted on its outer side. This arrangement allows the multi-stage sorting cylinders to rotate synchronously while maintaining their relative positions. The outer walls of the first, second, and third sorting cylinders are respectively provided with a first discharge hole, a second discharge hole, and a third discharge hole. The diameters of these discharge holes decrease progressively, ensuring that vegetables are sorted by size. Vegetables enter the third sorting cylinder through the inlet. Because the discharge hole of the third sorting cylinder has the smallest diameter, only the smallest vegetables can pass through, while slightly larger vegetables remain inside. When the third sorting cylinder is removed, the vegetables fall into the second sorting cylinder. Here, the diameter of the second discharge hole is larger than that of the third discharge hole, allowing slightly larger vegetables to pass through, while even larger vegetables remain inside. When the second sorting cylinder is removed, the vegetables enter the first sorting cylinder. The largest discharge hole allows the largest vegetables to pass through, completing the sorting process. The automated sorting process reduces manual operation and avoids eye strain and fatigue caused by long-term sorting, thereby improving overall work efficiency. The decreasing discharge hole diameter design ensures that vegetables are accurately sorted by size, reducing the possibility of mixing and incorrect sorting. Through the multi-layer sorting cylinder design, vegetables can be quickly and accurately sorted by size, reducing the time and labor intensity of manual sorting. The automated sorting process not only improves sorting efficiency but also reduces the labor intensity of farmers, solving the problem of low efficiency that easily occurs after long-term sorting, and achieving the effect of improving the efficiency of sorting spherical vegetables by size.

[0032] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0033] Example
[0034] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, one embodiment of the present invention is a vegetable sorting and packaging device, including a base 1, a drive motor 10 fixedly installed at the rear end of the upper surface of the base 1, a transmission rod 9 driven at the front end of the drive motor 10, and a third sorting cylinder 16.
[0035] Specifically, by movably mounting the third sorting cylinder 16 onto the transmission rod 9, movably mounting the second sorting cylinder 17 on its outer side, and movably mounting the first sorting cylinder 6 on its outer side, this arrangement allows the multi-stage sorting cylinders to rotate synchronously while maintaining a fixed relative position. The outer walls of the first sorting cylinder 6, the second sorting cylinder 17, and the third sorting cylinder 16 are respectively provided with a first discharge hole 7, a second discharge hole 12, and a third discharge hole 13. The decreasing diameter of these discharge holes ensures that vegetables are sorted by size. Vegetables enter the third sorting cylinder 16 through the inlet. Since the discharge hole 13 of the third sorting cylinder 16 has the smallest diameter, only the smallest vegetables can pass through, while slightly larger vegetables are left in the third sorting cylinder 16. When the third sorting cylinder 16 is pulled out, the vegetables fall into the second sorting cylinder 17. Here, the diameter of the second discharge hole 12 is larger than that of the third discharge hole, allowing slightly larger vegetables to pass through, while even larger vegetables are left in the second sorting cylinder 17. When the second sorting cylinder 17 is pulled out, the vegetables enter the first sorting cylinder 6. The first discharge hole 7 has the largest diameter, allowing the largest vegetables to pass through and completing the sorting. The automated sorting process reduces manual operation and avoids eye strain and fatigue caused by long-term sorting, thereby improving overall work efficiency. The decreasing discharge hole diameter design ensures that vegetables are accurately sorted by size, reducing the possibility of mixing and incorrect sorting. Through the design of multi-layer sorting cylinders, vegetables can be sorted quickly and accurately by size, reducing the time and labor intensity of manual sorting. The automated sorting process not only improves sorting efficiency but also reduces the labor intensity of farmers, solving the problem of low efficiency that easily occurs after long-term sorting, and achieving the effect of improving the efficiency of sorting spherical vegetables by size.

[0037] By fixing a support frame 11 to the middle of the upper surface of the base 1, and allowing the transmission rod 9 to pass through and rotatably connect with the support frame 11, the stability of the entire device can be increased. This design helps reduce vibration during transmission and improves sorting accuracy and efficiency.
[0038] Furthermore, a baffle 3 is fixedly installed on the end of the transmission rod 9 away from the drive motor 10. The outer diameter of the baffle 3 matches the inner diameter of the third sorting cylinder 16. A third limiting frame 14 is fixedly installed on the transmission rod 9 on the side opposite to the baffle 3 of the support frame 11.
[0039] A baffle 3 is fixedly installed at the end of the transmission rod 9 away from the drive motor 10. The outer diameter of the baffle 3 matches the inner diameter of the third sorting cylinder 16. This design can prevent vegetables from falling between the transmission rod 9 and the third sorting cylinder 16 during the sorting process. At the same time, the setting of the third limiting frame 14 can further fix and stabilize the third sorting cylinder 16, reducing its movement during operation.
[0040] Furthermore, the front end of the third limiting frame 14 passes through the limiting sleeve 4 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder 6, and the material filling bin 8 is rotatably installed on the transmission rod 9 on the side opposite to the third sorting cylinder 16 of the third limiting frame 14.
[0041] The front end of the third limiting frame 14 passes through the limiting sleeve 4 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder 6. This design can ensure that the relative position between the third limiting frame 14 and the first sorting cylinder 6 is fixed.
[0042] Furthermore, a filling port is provided at the top of the filling chamber 8, and a counterweight block 15 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the filling chamber 8.
[0043] The top of the filling chamber 8 has a filling port for easy filling of vegetables, which improves the convenience of operation. A counterweight 15 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the filling chamber 8 to increase the stability of the filling chamber 8, prevent tilting or movement during the filling process, and ensure the accuracy and uniformity of the filling.
[0044] Furthermore, a second limiting frame 5 is fixedly installed at the front end of the third sorting cylinder 16, and the rear end of the second limiting frame 5 passes through the limiting sleeve 4 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder 6.
[0045] The front end of the third sorting cylinder 16 is fixedly installed with a second limiting frame 5. The rear end of the second limiting frame 5 passes through the limiting sleeve 4 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder 6. This design can ensure that the relative position between the second sorting cylinder 17 and the first sorting cylinder 6 is fixed, reduce movement during operation, and improve sorting accuracy.
[0046] Furthermore, a first limiting frame 2 is fixedly installed at the front end of the second sorting cylinder 17, and a limiting sleeve 4 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the first limiting frame 2 through the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder 6.
[0047] The front end of the second sorting cylinder 17 is fixedly installed with a first limiting frame 2. The rear end of the first limiting frame 2 passes through a limiting sleeve 4 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder 6. This design ensures that the relative position between the second sorting cylinder 17 and the first sorting cylinder 6 is fixed, reducing movement during operation and improving the accuracy and stability of sorting. When using this utility model, the drive motor 10 on the base 1 is started. The drive motor 10 drives the first sorting cylinder 6, the second sorting cylinder 17, and the third sorting cylinder 16 to rotate synchronously through the third limiting frame 14 on the transmission rod 9. The vegetables to be sorted are put into the feeding bin 8. The feeding bin 8 has a feeding port at the top to facilitate the injection of vegetables. The vegetables are sent into the third sorting cylinder 16 through the feeding bin 8. The outer wall of the third sorting cylinder 16 has a third discharge hole 13. These holes have the smallest diameter, allowing only the smallest vegetables to pass through. After the smallest vegetables are discharged, the third sorting cylinder 16 is pulled out along the second limiting frame 5 from the side of the baffle 3, so that the remaining vegetables enter the second sorting cylinder 17. The outer wall of the first sorting cylinder 6 has a second discharge hole 12. The diameter of these holes is larger than that of the third discharge hole 13, allowing larger vegetables to pass through. After the vegetables are discharged from the second sorting cylinder 17, the second sorting cylinder 17 is pulled out by the first limiting frame 2, while the largest vegetables are left in the first sorting cylinder 6.

The diameter of these holes is the largest, allowing all vegetables to pass through, while the larger vegetables are left in the first sorting cylinder 6. The limiting sleeve 4 is fixed on the outer wall of the first sorting cylinder 6 to ensure the stable assembly of the multi-stage sorting cylinders. After sorting is completed, the drive motor 10 is turned off to stop the sorting process. The multi-stage sorting cylinders and the filling bin 8 are cleaned to prepare for the next sorting.
