Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fruit processing technology, specifically a fruit sorting machine. Background Technology

[0002] When sorting fruits, automatic weighing and sorting machines are usually used to sort them automatically. When the sorting machine is working, the weighing system automatically weighs the fruits in the trays and pours fruits of the same weight range into the same collection tank, thereby achieving the purpose of automatic sorting.

[0003] When a fruit sorting machine is working, the trays tilt the fruit into the collection trough. As the fruit rolls into the trough, the speed at which it rolls off the surface of the trough increases, causing it to easily collide with the trough walls or other fruit in the trough, damaging the fruit and affecting the quality of the sorted fruit. Therefore, a fruit sorting machine needs to be designed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a fruit sorting machine.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A fruit sorting machine includes: a fruit tray installed on the top of the main body of the weighing and sorting machine; a sorting basket rotatably connected to the rear side of the main body of the weighing and sorting machine via a rotating shaft; the inner cavity of the sorting basket is divided into uniformly sized storage cavities by multiple partitions; a baffle is installed on the rear side of each storage cavity; and an interception component is provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of each storage cavity.

[0007] Preferably, the interception component includes a sliding panel that slides up and down through the storage cavity. The panel passes through the inner cavity of the sorting basket and extends to the outer side of the bottom of the sorting basket. An mounting plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the panel. The mounting plate slides up and down at the bottom of the sorting basket. A plurality of miniature cylinders are fixedly installed at the bottom of the sorting basket. The output ends of the miniature cylinders are respectively fixedly installed with the mounting plate. An anti-detachment column that cooperates with the mounting plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the sorting basket. The mounting plate slides up and down on the surface of the anti-detachment column.

[0008] Preferably, the surfaces of the guardrail, the inner cavity of the sorting basket, the partition, and the baffle are all bonded with flexible cushioning fabric.

[0009] Preferably, a base plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rear side of the weighing and sorting machine body, a sliding rod is slidably connected to the top of the base plate, and rotating rods are rotatably connected to both the left and right sides of the sliding rod, with the top of the rotating rod rotatably connected to the bottom of the sorting basket.

[0010] Preferably, guide rods are fixedly installed at both the left and right ends of the top of the base plate, and the sliding rod slides on the surface of the guide rods.

[0011] Preferably, a threaded rod is rotatably connected to the center of the top of the base plate, the sliding rod is threaded to the surface of the threaded rod, and a hexagonal groove is provided on the rear side of the threaded rod.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. This utility model, through the rotating connection of the sorting basket, allows for flexible adjustment of the tilt angle of the sorting basket according to the shape of the fruit itself, thereby controlling the speed at which the fruit rolls down and preventing the fruit from colliding due to excessive rolling speed, thus avoiding damage to the fruit.

[0014] 2. This utility model connects the micro cylinder and the tilting structure in the fruit tray by setting up an interception component. When the controller in the main body of the weighing and sorting machine starts the tilting structure at the bottom of the fruit tray, causing the fruit tray to rotate and tilt the fruit in its inner cavity, the micro cylinder will be started at the same time, so that the side plate rises to intercept the fruit in the storage cavity, causing the fruit to roll down with a small initial velocity, thereby reducing the force of fruit collision and improving the quality of fruit after sorting.

[0015] 3. By using flexible cushioning fabric, this utility model can increase the contact time between the fruit and the surface of the sorting basket when the guardrail intercepts the fruit or when the fruit rolls inside the sorting basket, thereby reducing the impact force on the fruit and protecting it.

Therefore, the following detailed embodiments and accompanying drawings are merely illustrative descriptions of the technical solution of this utility model and should not be considered as the entirety of this utility model or as limitations or restrictions on the technical solution of this utility model.

[0024] In the following description, embodiments of the fruit sorting machine of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Figure 1-4 This invention illustrates a fruit sorting machine according to an embodiment of the present invention, comprising:

[0026] A fruit tray 2 is installed on top of the main body 1 of the weighing and sorting machine. A sorting basket 3 is rotatably connected to the rear side of the main body 1 via a rotating shaft 8. Specifically, a base plate 7 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rear side of the main body 1. A sliding rod 9 is slidably connected to the top of the base plate 7. Rotating rods 10 are rotatably connected to both sides of the sliding rod 9. The top of the rotating rods 10 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the sorting basket 3. Specifically, guide rods 11 are fixedly installed at both ends of the top of the base plate 7. The sliding rod 9 slides on the surface of the guide rods 11. Specifically, a threaded rod 12 is rotatably connected to the center of the top of the base plate 7. The sliding rod 9 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 12. On the surface of 2, a hexagonal slot is provided on the rear side of the threaded rod 12. The inner cavity of the sorting basket 3 is divided into uniformly sized storage cavities by multiple partitions 4. A baffle 5 is installed on the rear side of each storage cavity. An interception component 6 is provided at the bottom of the storage cavity. Specifically, the interception component 6 includes a baffle 61 that slides up and down in the storage cavity. The baffle 61 passes through the inner cavity of the sorting basket 3 and extends to the outer side of the bottom of the sorting basket 3. An mounting plate 62 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the baffle 61. The mounting plate 62 slides up and down at the bottom of the sorting basket 3. Multiple miniature cylinders 63 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the sorting basket 3. The output ends of the miniature cylinders 63 are fixedly installed to the mounting plate 62 respectively. The bottom of the sorting basket 3 is fixedly equipped with an anti-detachment column 64 that works in conjunction with the mounting plate 62. The mounting plate 62 slides up and down on the surface of the anti-detachment column 64. Through the setting of the interception component 6, the micro cylinder 63 is connected to the tilting structure in the fruit tray 2. When the controller in the main body 1 of the weighing and sorting machine activates the tilting structure at the bottom of the fruit tray 2, causing the fruit tray 2 to rotate and tilt the fruit in its inner cavity, the micro cylinder 63 is activated at the same time, thereby causing the baffle 61 to rise and intercept the fruit in the collection cavity, causing the fruit to roll downwards with a small initial velocity, thereby reducing the force of fruit collision and improving the quality of the sorted fruit. Specifically... Flexible cushioning fabric is adhered to the surfaces of the guardrail 61, the inner cavity of the sorting basket 3, the partition 4, and the guardrail 5. The flexible cushioning fabric used on the inner cavity of the sorting basket 3 should have minimal impact on the fruit rolling off, while the flexible cushioning fabric on the surfaces of the guardrail 61, the partition 4, and the guardrail 5 should protect the fruit, such as a sponge pad. By using the flexible cushioning fabric, when the guardrail 61 intercepts the fruit and when the fruit rolls inside the sorting basket 3, the contact time between the fruit and the guardrail 61 and the surface of the sorting basket 3 can be increased, thereby reducing the impact force on the fruit and protecting it.

[0027] Working Principle: When using this invention, the user places fruits one by one into the inner cavity of the fruit tray 2. This can be done manually or by using an automatic feeding device. The weighing system in the main body 1 of the weighing and sorting machine weighs the fruits in the fruit tray 2 and transports it to the front of the corresponding storage cavity, where it is tilted. When the fruit tray 2 tilts, the micro cylinder 63 is automatically and synchronously activated, causing the mounting plate 62 to slide upwards at the bottom of the sorting basket 3. This, in turn, causes the baffle 61 to rise and intercept the fruits in the storage cavity, reducing their rolling speed. Subsequently, the micro cylinder 63 causes the baffle 61 to descend, allowing the fruits to roll downwards within the storage cavity with a small initial velocity. When the user observes a large amount of fruit in the storage cavity, they can open the baffle 5. The fruit inside the cavity is poured out. A lock is installed on the baffle 5 (not shown in the attached diagram). When the roundness of the fruit to be sorted changes, the tilt angle of the sorting basket 3 can be adjusted according to the fruit's shape to control the speed at which the fruit rolls within the cavity. The user uses a specific hex wrench to turn the threaded rod 12. In the absence of specific tools, the sliding rod 9 locks onto the surface of the threaded rod 12, causing it to slide on the surface of the guide rod 11. This, in turn, causes the rotating rod 10 to rotate, making the sorting basket 3 rotate behind the main body 1 of the weighing and sorting machine. This allows adjustment of the tilt angle of the sorting basket 3. It should be noted that when adjusting the tilt angle of 3, the sorting machine is adjusted to ensure the tilt angle matches the fruit type, preventing delayed fruit roll-off and potential blockages.

[0028] In summary, this fruit sorting machine, through the rotating connection of the sorting basket 3, can flexibly adjust the tilt angle of the sorting basket 3 according to the shape of the fruit itself, thereby controlling the speed at which the fruit rolls down and avoiding collisions caused by excessively fast rolling speed, which could damage the fruit.

[0029] The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the content described above. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the above embodiments without departing from the technical concept of this utility model, and all such modifications and variations should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
