Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fruit and vegetable sorting technology, and in particular to a fruit and vegetable packing mechanism and a fruit and vegetable sorting device. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, fruits and vegetables are a type of food that people often consume. Fruits and vegetables include cherries, apples, pears, and tomatoes, among others. After ripening, fruits and vegetables need to be harvested and then transported to factories for sorting and processing to facilitate subsequent packaging and sales.
[0003] In related technologies, after the fruits and vegetables are sorted, they need to be packed into fruit boxes. In some cases, the fruits and vegetables need to be placed in water. During the packing process, the fruit boxes need to be submerged in water first, and then the fruits and vegetables are carried into the fruit boxes by the water flow. After the fruit boxes are full, they need to be lifted out of the water and transported to the next mechanism.
[0004] However, the fruit crates encounter significant resistance when sinking into the water and when being lifted out of the water, requiring a gripping mechanism, such as a robotic arm, to pick up the fruit crates and place them on the conveyor. To maintain the stability of the fruit crates, the gripping mechanism needs to move them at a slow speed, resulting in a low conveying rate of the fruit crates after packing. Utility Model Content
[0005] The present invention aims to provide a fruit and vegetable packing mechanism and a fruit and vegetable sorting device to solve the technical problem of low conveying rate of fruit boxes after packing in the prior art.
[0006] The technical problem solved by this utility model embodiment is addressed by the following technical solution:
[0007] A fruit and vegetable packing mechanism is provided, comprising:
[0008] frame;
[0009] A support frame, which is vertically and movably mounted on the machine frame, includes a support portion for supporting the fruit box;
[0010] A first drive assembly is mounted on the frame and is used to drive the support frame to move vertically relative to the frame.
[0011] A pressure box assembly, which is vertically and movably mounted on the support frame and is located above the support portion;
[0012] A second drive assembly is mounted on the support frame and is used to drive the pressure box assembly to move vertically relative to the support frame.
[0013] With the above structure, the user can first load the empty fruit box into the support frame so that the fruit box is located between the support frame and the pressing assembly. Then, the second drive assembly drives the pressing assembly to move downward relative to the support frame, and the pressing assembly abuts against the upper end of the empty fruit box so that the support and the pressing assembly clamp the empty fruit box. Next, the first drive assembly drives the support frame to move downward relative to the frame so that the fruit box can be submerged in water. Then, the water flow is directed towards the fruit box to drive the fruits and vegetables into the fruit box.
[0014] After the fruit box is filled with fruits and vegetables, the first drive assembly drives the support frame to move upward relative to the machine frame, causing the fruit box to leave the water surface. Subsequently, the second drive assembly drives the pressing assembly to move upward relative to the support frame, causing the support and pressing assembly to release the fruit box. Finally, the user can push the fruit box filled with fruits and vegetables out of the support frame. The fruit and vegetable packing mechanism can quickly submerge or detach the fruit box from the water surface, and once the fruit box is full, it can be quickly detached from the fruit and vegetable packing mechanism, thereby improving the packing speed.
[0015] In some embodiments, the support includes a first support member and a second support member, the first support member being located on one side of the support frame and the second support member being located on the opposite side of the support frame, with a gap between the first support member and the second support member.
[0016] With the above structure, the first support member is located on one side of the support frame, and the second support member is located on the opposite side of the support frame, so that the first support member can support one side of the fruit box, and the second support member can support the opposite side of the fruit box, so that the support part can support the fruit box more stably.
[0017] In some embodiments, the first support member includes a plurality of first rotating rollers arranged in parallel, and the second support member includes a plurality of second rotating rollers arranged in parallel, wherein the rotation axis of the first rotating rollers is parallel to the rotation axis of the second rotating rollers.
[0018] With the above structure, when the fruit box is pushed into or out of the support frame, both the first rotating roller and the second rotating roller can rotate, so that rolling friction is generated between the first rotating roller and the fruit box, and rolling friction is also generated between the second rotating roller and the fruit box; the fruit box is easier to be pushed into or out of the mounting frame, further improving the conveying efficiency of the fruit box before and after packing.
[0019] In some embodiments, the fruit and vegetable packing mechanism further includes:
[0020] A box-pushing assembly includes a fixed bracket, a rotating bracket, a first driving component, and rollers. The fixed bracket is mounted on the frame, and the rotating bracket is rotatably connected to the fixed bracket. The first driving component is mounted on the fixed bracket and is used to drive the rotating bracket to rotate relative to the fixed bracket. The rollers are mounted on the end of the rotating bracket facing away from the fixed bracket. During the rotation of the rotating bracket relative to the fixed bracket, the rollers can be driven to move towards or away from the support portion.
[0021] With the above structure, when a fruit box is filled with fruits and vegetables, the first driving component drives the rotating bracket to rotate relative to the fixed bracket, which drives the roller component to move toward the frame. The roller component pushes the empty fruit box into the support frame. During the process of the empty fruit box entering the support frame, the fruit box filled with fruits and vegetables in the support frame can be pushed out, thereby improving the efficiency of fruit boxes entering or leaving the fruit box.
[0022] In some embodiments, the pressure chamber assembly includes:
[0023] A top cover is vertically and movably mounted on the support frame. The top cover is located above the support portion and has a first inlet located on one side of the top cover.
[0024] A rotating cover is rotatably connected to the top cover, and the rotating cover can close or open the first feed port;
[0025] A second driving component is mounted on the top cover and is used to drive the rotating cover to rotate relative to the top cover.
[0026] With the above structure, after the top cover and the support clamp the fruit box, the top cover can cover the opening of the fruit box. After the support frame drives the fruit box to sink into the water, the rotating cover rotates relative to the top cover, and the first inlet opens. The water flow can carry the fruits and vegetables into the fruit box through the first inlet. After the fruit box is filled with an appropriate amount of fruits and vegetables, the rotating cover can rotate relative to the top cover to close the first inlet, so as to prevent the fruits and vegetables in the fruit box from overflowing excessively.
[0027] In some embodiments, the support frame includes four first guide posts, and the top cover has four first guide slots located at the four corners of the top cover. Each first guide post passes through a corresponding first guide slot.
[0028] With the above structure, each first guide post can guide the top cover through the groove wall of a corresponding first guide groove. The four first guide grooves are located at the four corners of the top cover, so that the four first guide posts can more stably support the top cover and prevent the top cover from shaking during vertical movement.
[0029] In some embodiments, the pressure box assembly further includes two second guide posts, which are located on both sides of the two second drive components respectively; the top of the support frame has two second guide grooves, and the two second guide posts are respectively inserted into one of the corresponding second guide grooves.
[0030] With the above structure, two second guide posts are located on both sides of the two second drive components, and each second guide post is inserted into a corresponding second guide groove; so that the groove wall of the second guide groove can guide the top cover through the corresponding second guide post, thereby reducing the degree of shaking of the second drive component during operation and further improving the stability of the top cover during movement.
[0031] In some embodiments, the fruit and vegetable packing mechanism further includes:
[0032] The fruit-blocking component includes a second inlet located on one side of the frame; a support frame that can move above or to the second inlet; the fruit-blocking component is rotatably connected to the frame and can close or open the second inlet.
[0033] A third drive assembly is mounted on the frame and is used to drive the fruit-blocking assembly to rotate relative to the frame.
[0034] With the above structure, the second inlet can be connected to the water tank for holding fruits and vegetables. When the fruit box needs to be filled with fruits and vegetables, the third drive component drives the fruit blocking component to move, opening the second inlet. The water pump in the water tank works, and the water flow can carry the fruits and vegetables into the fruit box through the second inlet. When the fruit box is full of fruits and vegetables, the third drive component drives the fruit blocking component to move, closing the second inlet. The fruit blocking component can prevent fruits and vegetables from entering the fruit box through the second inlet.
[0035] In some embodiments, the third driving component includes:
[0036] A pusher, which is rotatably connected to the frame;
[0037] A connector, one end of which is rotatably connected to the pusher, and the other end of which faces away from the pusher is connected to the fruit-blocking assembly.
[0038] With the above structure, when the pusher is pushed out, the total length of the pusher can be increased to drive the pusher to rotate relative to the frame, and at the same time the pusher rotates relative to the connecting member to drive the fruit blocking assembly to the position where the second inlet is open; when the pusher is retracted, the total length of the pusher decreases to drive the pusher to rotate relative to the frame, and at the same time the pusher rotates relative to the connecting member to drive the fruit blocking assembly to the position where the second inlet is closed.
[0039] Compared with existing technologies, users can first load empty fruit boxes into the support frame, positioning the fruit box between the support frame and the pressing assembly. Then, the second drive assembly drives the pressing assembly to move downward relative to the support frame, with the pressing assembly abutting against the upper end of the empty fruit box, so that the support and the pressing assembly clamp the empty fruit box. Next, the first drive assembly drives the support frame to move downward relative to the machine frame, allowing the fruit box to sink into the water. Then, water flows towards the fruit box, drawing fruits and vegetables into it.
[0040] After the fruit box is filled with fruits and vegetables, the first drive assembly drives the support frame to move upward relative to the machine frame, causing the fruit box to leave the water surface. Subsequently, the second drive assembly drives the pressing assembly to move upward relative to the support frame, causing the support and pressing assembly to release the fruit box. Finally, the user can push the fruit box filled with fruits and vegetables out of the support frame. The fruit and vegetable packing mechanism can quickly submerge or detach the fruit box from the water surface, and once the fruit box is full, it can be quickly detached from the fruit and vegetable packing mechanism, thereby improving the packing speed.

Then, the second drive assembly 50 drives the pressing assembly 40 to move downward relative to the support frame 20, and the pressing assembly 40 abuts against the upper end of the empty fruit box so that the support part 22 and the pressing assembly 40 clamp the empty fruit box. Next, the first drive assembly 30 drives the support frame 20 to move downward relative to the frame 10 so that the fruit box can be submerged in water. Then, the water flow is directed towards the fruit box to drive the fruits and vegetables into the fruit box.
[0055] After the fruit box is filled with fruits and vegetables, the first drive assembly 30 drives the support frame 20 to move upward relative to the frame 10, so that the fruit box is lifted out of the water. Subsequently, the second drive assembly 50 drives the pressing assembly 40 to move upward relative to the support frame 20, so that the support part 22 and the pressing assembly 40 release the fruit box. Finally, the user can push the fruit box filled with fruits and vegetables out of the support frame 20. The fruit and vegetable packing mechanism 100 can quickly sink or lift the fruit box into or out of the water, and after the fruit box is full, it can be quickly detached from the fruit and vegetable packing mechanism 100, thereby improving the packing speed.
[0056] Specifically, the fruit box can be a hollow cuboid structure made of plastic. In this embodiment, the frame 10 can be a frame structure formed by splicing together strips of steel. The frame 10 as a whole can have a structure similar to a cuboid; the support frame 20 can also be formed by splicing together strips of steel. The support frame 20 can be located inside the frame 10, and rollers can be provided at the four corners of the support frame 20. The rollers of the support frame 20 can be rotatably connected to the inner side of the frame 10 to play a guiding role; the support part 22 can include a rotating rod rotatably connected to the support frame 20. The first drive assembly 30 can include a motor installed on the top of the frame 10. The first drive assembly 30 can pull the support frame 20 through a chain to drive the support frame 20 to move vertically relative to the frame 10.
[0057] The pressure box assembly 40 can be in the form of a rectangular plate structure.

[0059] In some embodiments, the support portion 22 includes a first support member 222 and a second support member 224. The first support member 222 is located on one side of the support frame 20, and the second support member 224 is located on the other opposite side of the support frame 20. There is a gap between the first support member 222 and the second support member 224.
[0060] With the above structure, the first support member 222 is located on one side of the support frame 20, and the second support member 224 is located on the other opposite side of the support frame 20, so that the first support member 222 can support one side of the fruit box, and the second support member 224 can support the other opposite side of the fruit box, so that the support part 22 can support the fruit box more stably.
[0061] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first support member 222 and the second support member 224 have the same structure, and the first support member 222 has a rectangular structure and includes a plurality of rotating rod structures arranged in parallel.

The second drive component 46 is mounted on the top cover 42 and is used to drive the rotating cover 44 to rotate relative to the top cover 42.
[0072] With the above structure, after the top cover 42 and the support part 22 clamp the fruit box, the top cover 42 can cover the opening of the fruit box. After the support frame 20 drives the fruit box to sink into the water, the rotating cover 44 rotates relative to the top cover 42, and the first inlet 4202 opens. The water flow can carry the fruits and vegetables into the fruit box through the first inlet 4202. After the fruit box is filled with an appropriate amount of fruits and vegetables, the rotating cover 44 can rotate relative to the top cover 42 to close the first inlet 4202, so as to prevent the fruits and vegetables in the fruit box from overflowing excessively.

[0075] In some embodiments, the support frame 20 includes four first guide posts 24, and the top cover 42 has four first guide grooves 4204. The four first guide grooves 4204 are located at the four corners of the top cover 42, and each first guide post 24 passes through a corresponding first guide groove 4204.
[0076] With the above structure, each first guide post 24 can guide the top cover 42 through the groove wall of a corresponding first guide groove 4204. The four first guide grooves 4204 are located at the four corners of the top cover 42, so that the four first guide posts 24 can more stably support the top cover 42 and prevent the top cover 42 from shaking during vertical movement.
[0077] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first guide post 24 can be a circular straight rod, and the first guide groove 4204 can be a circular through groove.
