Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of color sorters, and in particular to a color sorter frame assembly. Background Technology
[0002] Color sorters are efficient and precise material sorting devices. The color sorter frame assembly serves as the supporting skeleton of the entire equipment, bearing key components such as the sorting box, electrical system, and feeding device. Currently, most color sorter frames adopt a traditional rectangular frame structure. This structure, when dealing with long-term, high-intensity sorting operations, lacks effective reinforcement design, resulting in insufficient overall frame rigidity.
[0003] In large-scale material color sorting scenarios, the materials are heavy and the conveying impact is strong. Under continuous stress, the frame's columns, beams and other parts are prone to bending and deformation, which in turn causes the connected sorting boxes, feeding devices and other components to shift, seriously affecting the sorting accuracy and reducing the stability and reliability of the equipment operation. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a color sorter frame assembly that solves the problem that the uprights, beams and other parts of the existing color sorter frame are prone to bending and deformation under continuous stress.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A color sorter frame assembly includes a base plate, with waste material inlets and finished product material inlets equidistantly opened at the bottom of the base plate, V-shaped frames fixedly connected to both sides of the base plate, and gate-shaped plates fixedly connected to the top of the V-shaped frames, with a front sorting box fixedly connected between one end of the gate-shaped plates, a rear sorting box fixedly connected between the other ends of the gate-shaped plates, an electrical box fixedly connected between the side walls of the gate-shaped plates, and a feeding rack fixedly connected to the top of the gate-shaped plates.
[0006] Preferably, the V-shaped frame is internally fixed with diagonal braces. The fixed connection of the diagonal braces makes the V-shaped frame form a stable triangular structure, which effectively improves the rigidity and bending resistance of the V-shaped frame itself.
[0007] Preferably, inclined channels are provided at equal intervals between the gate-shaped plates. The bottom of the inclined channels is located between the front sorting box and the rear sorting box. The inclined channels guide the material flow. After the material slides down from the inclined channels, it can directly and accurately enter the sorting area.
[0008] Preferably, the bottom surface of the inclined channel has through holes arranged in a rectangular array. The through holes facilitate the imaging equipment in the subsequent sorting box to sample the material sliding down the inclined channel through the holes.
[0009] Preferably, a U-shaped piece is fixedly connected to the back side of the inclined channel, and a bent piece is fixedly connected to the top of the electrical box at equal intervals. The top of the bent piece is symmetrically provided with grooves, and bolts are symmetrically threaded inside the U-shaped piece. The bolts are embedded in the corresponding grooves, and a pressing piece is fixedly connected to the outside of the bolts. Through the connection structure of the U-shaped piece, the bent piece and the bolt, the inclined channel and the electrical box can be quickly and conveniently installed and disassembled.
[0010] Preferably, one end of the bolt is fixedly connected to a wing plate, which provides an easy point for the operator to apply force. When installing or removing the bolt, the operator can rotate the bolt by holding the wing plate.
[0011] Preferably, a crossbeam is fixedly connected between the top ends of the V-shaped frame. The crossbeam is fixedly connected to the bottom of the front sorting box, and the crossbeam provides additional support for the front sorting box, enhancing the stability of the front sorting box.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] 1. This utility model uses a base plate as the base, with V-shaped frames symmetrically arranged on both sides and fixedly connected to the base plate to form a stable triangular support structure. This effectively disperses the vibration and stress generated during equipment operation, ensuring that the frame as a whole is not easily deformed or shaken under long-term high-intensity operation, improving the stability and reliability of equipment operation, and reducing the failure rate caused by structural loosening.
[0014] 2. This utility model further enhances the structural strength of the V-shaped frame by using diagonal braces fixedly connected inside the V-shaped frame, enabling it to better withstand the weight and pressure from the portal plate and the connecting parts above, effectively avoiding bending or breakage caused by excessive local stress, and extending the service life of the frame.

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This embodiment provides a color sorter frame assembly, including a base plate 1. The bottom of the base plate 1 is provided with waste material inlets 2 and finished product material inlets 3 at equal intervals. V-shaped frames 4 are fixedly connected to both sides of the base plate 1. A gate-shaped plate 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the V-shaped frame 4. A front sorting box 6 is fixedly connected between one end of the gate-shaped plate 5. A rear sorting box 7 is fixedly connected between the other ends of the gate-shaped plate 5. An electrical box 8 is fixedly connected between the side walls of the gate-shaped plate 5. A feeding rack 9 is fixedly connected between the top of the gate-shaped plate 5.
[0022] The V-shaped frame 4, as the core load-bearing component of the frame assembly, is welded from high-strength steel. During the operation of the color sorter, the V-shaped frame 4 can withstand the enormous pressure and impact generated by the gantry plate 5, the sorting box, the electrical box 8, and the material conveying. The gantry plate 5 is fixed on both sides of the top of the V-shaped frame 4, providing accurate installation positioning for the front sorting box 6 and the rear sorting box 7. The gantry plate 5 not only serves to connect and support the sorting box, but also forms a stable frame structure together with the V-shaped frame 4, further enhancing the overall rigidity of the frame.
[0023] The V-shaped frame 4 is internally fixedly connected with diagonal braces 10. As a key support component of the frame, the V-shaped frame 4 is prone to deformation when bearing the weight of the upper structure such as the portal plate 5 and the sorting box, as well as the dynamic load generated by material conveying. The fixed connection of the diagonal braces 10 makes the V-shaped frame 4 form a stable triangular structure, which effectively improves the rigidity and bending resistance of the V-shaped frame 4 itself, ensuring that it will not bend or be damaged due to stress during long-term use, and providing a solid and reliable support foundation for the entire frame.
[0024] Inclined channels 11 are provided at equal intervals between the gate-shaped plates 5. The inclined channels 11 provide a clear and orderly conveying channel for materials, so that the materials can slide down evenly and smoothly in a predetermined direction and trajectory. The bottom of the inclined channels 11 is located between the front sorting box 6 and the rear sorting box 7. After the materials slide down the inclined channels 11, they can directly and accurately enter the sorting area.
[0025] The bottom surface of the inclined channel 11 is provided with through holes 12 arranged in a rectangular array. The imaging device in the rear sorting box 7 samples the material sliding down the inclined channel 11 through the holes.
[0026] A U-shaped piece 13 is fixedly connected to the back side of the inclined channel 11, and a bent piece 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the electrical box 8 at equal intervals. The top of the bent piece 14 is symmetrically provided with grooves 15. Bolts 16 are symmetrically threaded inside the U-shaped piece 13. The bolts 16 are respectively embedded in the corresponding grooves 15. An extrusion piece 17 is fixedly connected to the outside of the bolt 16.
[0027] Through the connection structure of U-shaped piece 13, bending piece 14 and bolt 16, the inclined channel 11 and electrical box 8 can be quickly and conveniently installed and disassembled. During installation, simply align U-shaped piece 13 and bending piece 14, screw bolt 16 into U-shaped piece 13 and embed it into the groove 15 of bending piece 14, and then fix it with extrusion piece 17. During disassembly, the two can be easily separated by reversing the operation. This design shortens the installation and commissioning time of the equipment, reduces the installation cost, and also facilitates subsequent maintenance and repair work.
[0028] One end of the bolt 16 is fixedly connected to a wing plate 18, which provides an easy point for the operator to apply force. When installing or removing the bolt 16, the operator can rotate the bolt 16 by holding the wing plate 18 without the need for additional tools or complicated operating methods.
[0029] A crossbeam 19 is fixedly connected between the top ends of the V-shaped frame 4. The crossbeam 19 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the front sorting box 6. The crossbeam 19 provides additional support for the front sorting box 6, enhancing its stability. Furthermore, the crossbeam 19 connects the V-shaped frames 4 on both sides into a tighter whole, increasing the lateral rigidity and stability of the frame.
[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
