Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural product processing and testing technology, and in particular to an egg testing and grading device. Background Technology

[0002] Egg testing utilizes professional methods to evaluate multiple indicators of eggs, covering aspects such as size, weight, appearance integrity, and internal quality. A grading device is used because eggs of different qualities have different market positioning and uses, and manual grading is inefficient and inaccurate. The grading device can automatically, efficiently, and accurately classify eggs into different quality grades based on the test results. This helps improve production efficiency, meets diverse market demands, and optimizes the overall quality control system for egg products.

[0003] The egg testing and grading device mainly consists of a conveying mechanism, a gravity detection mechanism, a grading mechanism, a control component, a collection mechanism, a frame, and a casing. The conveying mechanism uses a conveyor belt, drive motor, and transmission rollers to smoothly transport the eggs. The gravity detection mechanism accurately measures the weight using load cells and a support platform. The grading mechanism uses multiple grading tracks or baffles to guide the eggs to their corresponding channels according to the instructions from the control component. The control component acts as the "brain," receiving weight signals, comparing them with grading standards, and controlling the grading actions. The collection mechanism uses different containers or conveyor belts to collect eggs of different grades. The frame and casing support and fix all components, working together to achieve egg grading based on gravity detection results.

[0004] In existing technologies, some egg testing and grading devices suffer from reduced testing efficiency due to the slow rebound of the gravity stage when the gravity table is lowered by the weight of the eggs when using the gravity adjustment component. This results in a decrease in the number of eggs that can be tested per unit time, and also interferes with the accuracy of gravity testing, leading to grading errors and affecting the quality control and sales of egg products. Therefore, an egg testing and grading device is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

This allows the blocking plates to move to different degrees, thus enabling the transfer of eggs under different gravitational forces in the egg detection and grading device. In addition, it can accurately simulate the actual force scenario of the egg, greatly improving the detection accuracy and effectively identifying various quality problems.
