Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dust removal technology for color sorters, and in particular to a dust removal device for color sorters. Background Technology

[0002] A color sorter is a device that automatically separates discolored particles from granular materials based on differences in their optical properties using photoelectric detection technology. Color sorters are used in the quality inspection and grading of bulk materials, packaged industrial products, and food.

[0003] In the material sorting process, the conveyor belt steadily transports the material to be sorted to the lens recognition area. After being photographed and recognized by the optical lens, the computer-controlled spray valve blows out a high-speed airflow to remove impurities. In this process, the conveyor belt not only plays the role of material transportation, but also serves as the background when the optical lens recognizes the material. Dust and impurities contained in the material to be sorted will adhere to the surface of the conveyor belt during long-term operation of the machine, affecting the optical lens's recognition of the material.

[0004] The existing technology involves installing a cleaning brush under the conveyor belt to remove dust and impurities from the surface of the conveyor belt. However, since the cleaning brush is in constant contact with the conveyor belt during the operation of the color sorter, long-term operation will cause scratches on the surface of the conveyor belt and wear on the cleaning brush, and will also cause dust to fly around, affecting the working environment. Therefore, this application proposes a cleaning device for a color sorter. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0022] like Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment proposes a dust removal device for a color sorter, comprising:

[0023] The movable base 1 has four locking casters 2 installed at its bottom. The four locking casters 2 are arranged in a rectangular shape. The locking casters 2 facilitate the movement of the movable base 1. Locking the locking casters 2 can lock the movable base 1 and ensure that it can be stably supported. The locking casters 2 also facilitate the subsequent movement of the entire device to the maintenance position.

[0024] The color sorter conveyor belt cleaning mechanism includes a lifting plate 11 that can be raised and lowered. An electric push rod 8 and two guide rails 3 are installed on the upper end of the movable seat 1. Guide blocks 10 are slidably connected on the guide rails 3. The lifting plate 11 is fixed on the two guide blocks 10. The output end of the electric push rod 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting plate 11. The electric push rod 8 drives the lifting plate 11 to rise and fall. With the cooperation of the guide rails 3 and the guide blocks 10, the lifting plate 11 rises and falls stably.

[0025] A mounting box 12 is installed on the lifting plate 11. A rotatable cleaning roller brush 7 is installed inside the mounting box 12. A control box 17 is installed on the mounting box 12. A meshing worm gear 20 and worm 19 are provided inside the control box 17. A motor 9 is installed on the control box 17. The output end of the motor 9 is fixedly connected to the worm 19. The worm gear 20 is connected to the cleaning roller brush 7. The cleaning roller brush 7 has a short shaft that extends into the control box 17. The worm gear 20 is installed on the short shaft.

[0026] Three rubber sheets 4 are fixed on the mounting box 12. The three rubber sheets 4 are distributed in a cone shape, which can increase the dust-blocking area. When the lifting plate 11 moves the mounting box 12 upward, an opening is formed between the upper end of the mounting box 12 and the rubber sheets 4. When the device is placed under the conveyor belt, the direction of the opening is opposite to the direction of movement of the conveyor belt, until the cleaning roller brush 7 abuts against the bottom of the conveyor belt. At this time, the rubber sheets 4 are close to the conveyor belt but do not abut against it. The motor 9 drives the worm gear 19 to rotate, thereby driving the worm wheel 20 and the cleaning roller brush 7 to rotate. The direction of rotation of the cleaning roller brush 7 is opposite to the direction of movement of the conveyor belt, which can more effectively clean the conveyor belt. The height of the lifting plate 11 is controlled by the electric push rod 8, which can control the pressure between the cleaning roller brush 7 and the conveyor belt, thereby controlling the cleaning intensity.

[0027] Dust generated during cleaning will fall inside the mounting box 12. An opening can be made on the bottom side of the mounting box 12 and a baffle can be installed to open the baffle for cleaning the inside of the mounting box 12.

[0028] When not in use, the output end of the electric push rod 8 is moved down to move the lifting plate 11 and the cleaning roller brush 7 down, which can reduce the wear between the two and protect the conveyor belt and the cleaning roller brush 7.

[0029] A dust collection box 5 is installed on the mounting box 12. The dust collection box 5 is connected to the mounting box 12 through the through groove 14. A fan 13 is installed at the bottom of the dust collection box 5. A removable dust filter 18 is installed inside the dust collection box 5, located between the through groove 14 and the fan 13. The dust collection box 5 is provided with a door 6. One end of the door 6 is hinged to the dust collection box 5, and the other end is connected to the dust collection box 5 with a latch or the like.

[0030] Furthermore, two support blocks 15 are fixed inside the dust collection box 5, and an installation frame 16 is slidably connected to the support blocks 15. The installation frame 16 abuts against the box door 6, and the dust filter 18 is fixed inside the installation frame 16. When cleaning the conveyor belt, the fan 13 is started. The fan 13 causes external air to enter the dust collection box 5 through the installation box 12 and the through channel 14, thereby driving the cleaned dust into the dust collection box 5 through the through channel 14. When the air passes through the dust filter 18, the dust can be filtered by the dust filter 18, and finally the filtered air is discharged.

[0031] When the dust filter 18 needs to be cleaned, open the box door 6 and pull out the mounting frame 16 to remove the dust filter 18 for cleaning.

[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
