Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bread production technology, specifically to an automatic bread sorting device. Background Technology

[0002] Automated bread sorting devices are commonly used in bread production lines, distribution centers, or supermarkets. They aim to improve production efficiency, reduce manual operation, and increase sorting accuracy and speed through automation.

[0003] The existing technology has the following defects or problems: The existing technology, disclosed in publication number CN209968959U, discloses an automatic bread sorting device, including a central controller and a first conveyor. The central controller is electrically connected to the first conveyor, and a base is provided below the first conveyor. A second conveyor is provided on one side of the first conveyor. The device is characterized in that a connector is provided between the first and second conveyors, and the connector is installed on one end of the first conveyor. The connector includes a housing, a guide plate is installed inside the housing, a rotating shaft is installed on one end of the guide plate, a positioning post is welded below the guide plate, a spring is nested on the positioning post, the other end of the spring is nested on a positioning bolt, and the positioning bolt is installed on the bottom of the housing.

[0004] During use, the above-mentioned equipment features a slightly inclined upper surface on the guide plate, with the inclination direction pointing downwards towards the end furthest from the rotating shaft. This inclination guides the dough to move slowly towards the lower end, thus buffering the speed of dough transfer. As the dough slowly approaches the edge of the guide plate, its gravity gradually presses the guide plate down until it contacts the second conveyor, guiding the dough onto the second conveyor and preventing it from flattening. Simultaneously, the limiting plate, in conjunction with the threaded rod, allows the limiting plate to move up and down when the threaded rod is rotated, adjusting the initial inclination of the guide plate and thus changing the speed at which the dough slides down, thereby adjusting the efficiency of dough transfer.

[0005] In practical use, the above-mentioned method cannot detect defects in bread or quickly remove defective bread, which affects the effectiveness of use. Therefore, it is necessary to propose an automatic bread sorting device.

[0006] It should be noted that the above content falls within the inventor's technical knowledge and does not necessarily constitute prior art. Utility Model Content

Each support leg is fixedly connected to an anti-slip block at its bottom end, and the recycling bin is located between two anti-slip blocks.

It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0025] 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.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic bread sorting device, including a conveyor belt 1, an L-shaped box 2 arranged on the side of the conveyor belt 1, a ball bearing turntable 3 installed on the top of the L-shaped box 2, a first synchronous wheel 4 rotatably connected to the top of the ball bearing turntable 3, a spline shaft 5 rotatably connected inside the ball bearing turntable 3 and the first synchronous wheel 4, and the spline shaft 5 is slidably connected to the first synchronous wheel 4, a cylinder 6 is installed inside the L-shaped box 2, a connecting plate 7 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the cylinder 6, and the connecting plate 7 is rotatably connected to the top of the spline shaft 5, a motor 8 is installed on the top of the L-shaped box 2, a second synchronous wheel 9 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 8, and the second synchronous wheel 9 is connected to the first synchronous wheel 4 by a synchronous belt;

[0028] The bottom of the spline shaft 5 is provided with a connector 10, and an arc plate 11 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connector 10. The arc plate 11 has an installation groove 12 inside, and an internal hex bolt 13 is installed inside the installation groove 12. The spline shaft 5 has a threaded hole 14 inside that is used to mate with the internal hex bolt 13.

[0029] In this embodiment, bread is continuously conveyed at the bottom of the L-shaped box 2 via conveyor belt 1. At this time, multiple defect detection probes 15 detect defects in the bread being conveyed. When a defect is detected, cylinder 6 drives connecting plate 7 to descend. When connecting plate 7 moves, it drives spline shaft 5 to move. When spline shaft 5 moves, it drives connecting head 10 to move. When connecting head 10 moves, it drives arc plate 11 to descend above conveyor belt 1. Then, motor 8 drives second synchronous wheel 9 to rotate. When second synchronous wheel 9 rotates, it drives first synchronous wheel 4 to rotate via synchronous belt. When first synchronous wheel 4 rotates, it drives spline shaft 5 to rotate. When spline shaft 5 rotates, it drives arc plate 11 to remove the defective bread into the recycling box 16, realizing automatic identification and sorting of bread. The structure is simple, the failure rate is low, the practicality is strong, and it is easy to put into use quickly.

[0030] The arc plate 11 drives the connector 10 to be placed at the bottom of the spline shaft 5, and the internal hex bolt 13 passes through the mounting groove 12 and is threaded to the threaded hole 14 inside the spline shaft 5, thereby completing the installation of the arc plate 11. The structure is simple and easy to replace the arc plate 11 according to the bread size.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] like Figures 1-4 As shown, defect detection probes 15 are symmetrically installed on the bottom of the L-shaped box 2, and each defect detection probe 15 is located on the center line of the conveyor belt 1. A recycling bin 16 is provided at the bottom of the L-shaped box 2. Support legs 17 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of the L-shaped box 2. Anti-slip blocks 18 are fixedly connected to the bottom end of each support leg 17, and the recycling bin 16 is located between two anti-slip blocks 18. A protective cover 19 for use with the motor 8 is installed at the bottom of the L-shaped box 2. The upper surface of the recycling bin 16 is lower than the upper surface of the conveyor belt 1.

[0033] In this embodiment, the defect detection probe 15 can detect defects in the bread, and defective bread can be removed to improve the yield rate; the use of the support leg 17 and the anti-slip block 18 can improve the overall stability of the device; the recycling bin 16 is lower than the conveyor belt 1 to facilitate the sorting of bread by the arc plate 11; the protective cover 19 can protect the motor 8 and improve safety.

[0034] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: In use, the arc plate 11 drives the connector 10 to be placed at the bottom of the spline shaft 5, and the internal hex bolt 13 passes through the mounting groove 12 and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 14 inside the spline shaft 5, thereby completing the installation of the arc plate 11. The structure is simple and it is easy to replace the arc plate 11 according to the bread specifications.

[0035] Bread is continuously conveyed at the bottom of L-shaped box 2 via conveyor belt 1. During this process, multiple defect detection probes 15 detect defects in the bread being conveyed. When a defect is detected, cylinder 6 drives connecting plate 7 to descend. As connecting plate 7 moves, spline shaft 5 moves, which in turn drives connector 10. Connector 10 then drives arc plate 11 to descend above conveyor belt 1. Subsequently, motor 8 drives second synchronous pulley 9 to rotate. As second synchronous pulley 9 rotates, it drives first synchronous pulley 4 to rotate via synchronous belt. As first synchronous pulley 4 rotates, it drives spline shaft 5 to rotate. As spline shaft 5 rotates, it drives arc plate 11 to remove the defective bread into recycling box 16. This achieves automatic bread identification and sorting, with a simple structure, low failure rate, high practicality, and easy to put into use quickly.

[0036] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
