Description
An automatic sorting device for noodle bending degree Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of noodle processing technology, specifically an automatic sorting device for noodle bending degree. Background Technology
[0002] By utilizing automation technology, substandard noodles with excessive bending can be efficiently and accurately removed from the production line, thereby significantly improving the overall appearance quality of the final product, reducing waste, increasing production efficiency, saving costs, and assisting in quality monitoring and optimization of the production process.
[0003] Existing automatic noodle bending degree sorting devices place the noodles directly on the conveyor belt, resulting in messy, overlapping, and crisscrossing of the noodles, which significantly reduces the detection accuracy. This paper proposes an automatic noodle bending degree sorting device that vibrates the noodles before conveying and testing to loosen and separate the tightly stacked noodles, reduce cross-entanglement, and improve the detection quality. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide an automatic noodle bending degree sorting device that solves the problem that some automatic noodle bending degree sorting devices place noodles directly on the conveyor belt, resulting in messy stacking, crossing, and overlapping of noodles, and a significant decrease in detection accuracy.
[0005] The technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: an automatic sorting device for noodle bending degree, wherein a drive motor is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base, a rotating rod is fixedly installed at the output end of the drive motor, a fixed disc is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the rotating rod, a support plate is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixed disc, a threaded hole is opened on the surface of the support plate, a spiral rotating rod is rotatably connected to the surface of the threaded hole, an adjustment plate is provided on the surface of the support plate, the adjustment plate is rotatably connected to the spiral rotating rod, a connecting rod is welded to the upper surface of the adjustment plate, a connecting shell is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting rod, and a vibrating plate is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the connecting shell.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, during the use of this device, the drive motor converts mechanical energy into electrical energy, driving the rotating rod to rotate in a circle, which in turn drives the connecting rod to rotate. The connecting shell is connected to the vibrating plate, causing the vibrating plate to swing around the connecting shell as the center. At the same time, under the action of the spring, the vibrating plate vibrates. The noodles inside the vibrating plate will loosen and separate with the vibration of the vibrating plate, so that each noodle appears independently, avoiding adhesion that would reduce the accuracy of subsequent bending degree detection. At the same time, the limited space inside the vibrating plate can meet the requirement of small output each time, avoiding overlap and affecting the detection effect.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the surface of the vibrating plate is provided with a connecting shaft, and a movable plate is fixedly mounted on the surface of the connecting shaft.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, after the noodles are vibrated and made relatively loose in the vibrating plate, the angle of the adjusting plate can be adjusted by rotating the spiral rotating rod, the vibrating plate can be tilted, and the movable plate can be opened. The movable plate can form an incline with the conveyor belt support on the conveying device, and the noodles can be conveyed to the conveying mechanism for bending degree detection.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, a fixing plate is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base, a spring is adhered to the upper surface of the fixing plate, and the upper surface of the spring is fixedly connected to the vibrating plate.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the spring can guide the vibration energy to be transmitted in a specific direction, forcing the noodles to spread evenly rather than bounce randomly. The symmetrically distributed spring group constrains the vibration trajectory and prevents the lateral displacement of the vibration plate from causing a decrease in the dispersion force of the noodles.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, a triangular support frame is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the base, and a conveyor frame is fixedly installed on the surface of the triangular support frame.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the triangular support frame can support the overall vibration mechanism.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, a conveyor control panel is fixedly mounted on the surface of the conveyor frame.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, operators can start and adjust the speed of the conveyor frame through the control panel of the conveying mechanism.
[0015] In a preferred embodiment, a vision inspection system is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the conveyor frame, and a vision inspection control panel is fixedly mounted on the surface of the vision inspection system.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, operators can use the visual inspection control panel to pre-set an acceptable bending threshold according to the production process and quality requirements. Then, using the camera, precision sensors, and contact measurement probes of the visual inspection system, the bending degree of each strand of noodle can be detected quickly and accurately.
[0017] In a preferred embodiment, an air tube is fixedly mounted on the surface of the visual inspection system, and a high-pressure air gun is provided at the end of the air tube.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when the visual inspection control panel detects that the bending degree of the noodles does not meet the standard, the high-pressure air gun will be triggered immediately through the program set on the visual inspection control panel to accurately remove the unqualified noodles from the mainstream of the production line and drop them into the waste hopper or the defective product recycling line.
[0019] In a preferred embodiment, a positioning rod is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the movable plate, and a silicone sleeve is movably connected to the surface of the positioning rod.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the connection method of the positioning rod and the silicone sleeve makes it more convenient to close and open the vibration plate.
[0021] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this application are:
[0022] In this application, during the use of this device, the drive motor converts mechanical energy into electrical energy, driving the rotating rod to rotate in a circle, which in turn drives the connecting rod to rotate. The connecting shell is connected to the vibrating plate, causing the vibrating plate to swing around the connecting shell as the center. At the same time, under the action of the spring, the vibrating plate vibrates. The noodles inside the vibrating plate will loosen and separate with the vibration of the vibrating plate, so that each noodle appears independently, avoiding adhesion that would reduce the accuracy of subsequent bending degree detection. At the same time, the space inside the vibrating plate is limited, which can meet the requirement of small output each time, avoiding overlap and affecting the detection effect.

[0032] During use, the drive motor 2 converts mechanical energy into electrical energy, driving the rotating rod 20 to rotate in a circle, which in turn drives the connecting rod 22 to rotate. The connecting shell 23 is connected to the vibrating plate 5, causing the vibrating plate 5 to swing around the connecting shell 23 as the center. At the same time, the spring 4 vibrates the vibrating plate 5. The noodles inside the vibrating plate 5 will loosen and separate with the vibration of the vibrating plate 5, so that each noodle appears independently, avoiding adhesion that would reduce the accuracy of subsequent bending degree detection. At the same time, the limited space inside the vibrating plate 5 can meet the requirement of small output each time, avoiding mutual overlap and affecting the detection effect.
[0033] A connecting shaft 9 is provided on the surface of the vibrating plate 5, and a movable plate 10 is fixedly installed on the surface of the connecting shaft 9. After the noodles are vibrated and made relatively loose in the vibrating plate 5, the spiral rotating rod 18 is rotated to adjust the angle of the adjusting plate 21, tilting the vibrating plate 5 and opening the movable plate 10. The movable plate 10 can form an incline with the conveyor belt support on the conveying device, conveying the noodles to the conveying mechanism for bending degree detection.
[0034] A fixing plate 6 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base 1. A spring 4 is adhered to the upper surface of the fixing plate 6, and the upper surface of the spring 4 is fixedly connected to the vibrating plate 5. The spring can guide the vibration energy to be transmitted in a specific direction, forcing the noodles to spread evenly rather than bounce randomly.

The operator can use the vision inspection control panel 13 to pre-set an acceptable bending threshold according to the production process and quality requirements. Using the camera, precision sensors and contact measurement probes of the vision inspection system 14, the bending degree of each passing piece of fabric can be detected at high speed and accurately.
[0038] An air pipe 15 is fixedly installed on the surface of the vision inspection system 14, and a high-pressure air gun 16 is installed at the end of the air pipe 15. When the vision inspection control panel 13 detects that the bending degree of the noodle does not meet the standard, the high-pressure air gun 16 will be triggered immediately through the program set by the vision inspection control panel 13, so as to accurately remove the unqualified noodle from the mainstream of the production line and drop it into the waste hopper or the defective product recycling line.
[0039] A positioning rod 8 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the movable plate 10, and a silicone sleeve 7 is movably connected to the surface of the positioning rod 8. The connection between the positioning rod 8 and the silicone sleeve 7 makes it convenient to close and open the vibrating plate 5.
[0040] The implementation principle of an embodiment of the automatic sorting device for noodle bending degree in this application is as follows:
[0041] During use, the drive motor 2 converts mechanical energy into electrical energy, driving the rotating rod 20 to rotate in a circle, which in turn drives the connecting rod 22 to rotate. The connecting shell 23 is connected to the vibrating plate 5, causing the vibrating plate 5 to swing around the connecting shell 23 as the center. At the same time, the spring 4 vibrates the vibrating plate 5. The noodles inside the vibrating plate 5 will loosen and separate with the vibration of the vibrating plate 5, so that each noodle appears independently, avoiding adhesion that would reduce the accuracy of subsequent bending degree detection. At the same time, the limited space inside the vibrating plate 5 can meet the requirement of small output each time, avoiding mutual overlap and affecting the detection effect.
