Pickled vegetable sorting device with anti-blocking function

Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of vegetable processing technology, and in particular to a pickled vegetable sorting device with anti-clogging function. The device includes a main body and utilizes an anti-clogging feeding component. A motor-driven conveyor belt, combined with an electric telescopic rod, pushes a push plate to transport vegetable clumps from the storage box in batches and evenly onto a guide plate. The conveyor belt then feeds the clumps into the vegetable hopper, preventing blockages caused by a large influx of vegetables at once. This ensures the continuity and stability of the sorting process. A rotating cylinder with sorting holes of different sizes separates the vegetable clumps into two sizes. The sorted clumps fall into a receiving box with partitions, achieving clear separation. This allows for the addition of appropriate proportions of seasoning based on the different sizes of the clumps, effectively avoiding uneven pickling and differences in taste caused by mixing different sizes.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vegetable processing technology, and in particular to a pickled vegetable sorting device with anti-clogging function. Background Technology

[0002] In the production and processing of pickled vegetables, sorting is a crucial step. Pickled vegetables usually need to undergo pre-treatment steps such as salting, washing, and squeezing out water. Then they are rolled into vegetable balls for subsequent seasoning and fermentation. These vegetable balls are of different sizes. In order to ensure the consistent taste and quality of the final product, vegetable balls of different sizes need to be sorted and processed. For example, vegetable balls of different sizes may require different proportions of seasonings or different pickling times.

[0003] Traditional sorting methods rely heavily on manual operation, which is inefficient, labor-intensive, and makes it difficult to ensure the uniformity of sorting standards, resulting in high production costs and difficulty in controlling the consistency between product batches. In order to improve sorting efficiency, some automated sorting devices have been introduced. However, some existing automated sorting equipment often faces the problem of feed blockage when processing pickled vegetable balls. This is because the vegetable balls may have a certain degree of moisture and toughness after pretreatment. If the feeding speed is too fast or too much is fed at once, they can easily accumulate and stick together in the feed inlet or sorting channel, forming a blockage. This seriously affects the continuity and efficiency of sorting work and may even lead to equipment shutdown for maintenance.

[0004] To address the above problems, it is necessary to design a pickled vegetable sorting device with anti-clogging function to overcome these issues. Utility Model Content

[0016] Beneficial effects

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. In this utility model, a pickled vegetable sorting device with anti-clogging function is designed. By using the feeding anti-clogging component, the conveyor belt is driven by a motor and combined with the electric telescopic rod to push the push plate, so that the vegetable clumps in the storage box are transported in batches and evenly to the guide plate, and then sent into the vegetable hopper by the conveyor belt. This "batch and quantity" feeding method avoids the blockage that may be caused by a large amount of vegetable clumps entering at one time, ensures the continuity and stability of the sorting process, and greatly improves the sorting efficiency.

[0019] 2. In this utility model, a pickled vegetable sorting device with anti-clogging function is designed. By using a rotating cylinder with sorting holes of different sizes, the vegetable balls can be reliably divided into two sizes. The sorted vegetable balls fall into a receiving box with partitions, achieving clear separation. This allows for the addition of appropriate proportions of seasonings or the setting of different pickling times according to the different sizes of the vegetable balls. This effectively avoids the problem of uneven pickling and taste differences caused by mixing different sizes, and improves the quality and consistency of the final product.

Rotary wheels 408 are respectively installed around the inside of the slots 407 via a rotating shaft. A guide plate 405 is embedded in the outer wall of the rotary wheel 408. A rotating cylinder 401 with sorting holes is provided in the middle of the guide plate 405. A toothed groove 404 is provided on the outer wall of one end of the rotating cylinder 401 with sorting holes. A receiving box 406 with a partition is placed on the lower side of the rotating cylinder 401 with sorting holes. An electric telescopic rod 312 is fixedly connected to the storage box 306.

[0030] The entire sorting process, from pushing and conveying the vegetable balls to the final sorting and unloading, is automatically completed by motor 307, electric telescopic rod 312 and drive motor 402, which reduces manual intervention, significantly reduces the labor intensity of workers, and also helps to achieve standardization of the production process.

[0031] Among them, the components of the feeding anti-blocking assembly 3, such as the guide hopper 301, protective shell 303, conveyor belt 304, separator plate 305, storage box 306, motor 307, first gear 308, transmission toothed belt 309, second gear 310, guide plate 311, electric telescopic rod 312 and push plate 313, are reasonably arranged and work together. The cooperation between the electric telescopic rod 312 and push plate 313 realizes precise control of pushing the vegetable balls. The guide hopper 301 and protective shell 303 adopt a detachable installation design, which facilitates subsequent cleaning and maintenance. The drive motor 402 drives the rotating cylinder 401 with sorting holes to rotate. With the auxiliary rotation of the guide plate 405 and the rotating wheel 408, as well as the inclined design of the main body 1 of the pickled vegetable sorting device, the vegetable balls are fed through sorting holes of different sizes by gravity. The structure is simple and reliable, and the operation is relatively convenient.

[0032] The working process of this utility model is as follows: Using the pickled vegetable sorting device with anti-clogging function designed in this solution, during operation, pickled vegetables that have been salted, washed, and squeezed dry are rolled into vegetable balls and placed into the storage box 306. Power is supplied to the start motor 307 and drive motor 402, and the electric telescopic rod 312 is extended via an external controller, pushing the push plate 313 to move. The push plate 313 then pushes the vegetable balls to the guide plate 311, which guides them onto the separator plate 305 that is being conveyed. The conveyor belt 304 then transports the vegetable balls in batches to the guide hopper 301, preventing large batches from clogging the sorting inlet and affecting sorting efficiency. The vegetables then enter the vegetable inlet hopper 2 through the guide hopper 301, and finally into the rotating cylinder 401 with sorting holes through the inlet hopper 2. The drive motor 402 drives the drive gear 403 to rotate. The drive gear 403 meshes with the toothed track 404, which in turn drives the rotating cylinder 401 with sorting holes to rotate on the outer wall of the rotating wheel 408 via the guide plate 405 for auxiliary rotation. Since the end of the main body 1 of the pickled vegetable sorting device that is closer to the vegetable hopper 2 is higher than the end that is farther away from the vegetable hopper 2, the main body 1 of the pickled vegetable sorting device presents a certain tilt angle. As the rotating cylinder 401 with sorting holes rotates, the vegetable balls are fed through the fine holes and the coarse holes respectively. The receiving box 406 with partitions receives the materials separately, realizing the sorting operation and dividing the vegetable balls into two sizes. This makes it easier for people to add pickling seasonings and set the pickling time according to the size of the vegetable balls, and prevent the pickling time of mixed vegetable balls from being different, which would affect the taste.

[0033] 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.
