Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of cleaning equipment technology, and in particular to a multi-functional cleaning machine. Background Technology
[0002] Cleaning machines are widely used in various fields such as industrial production, food processing, and logistics warehousing for cleaning various materials. However, existing cleaning machines have certain limitations in practical use. Current cleaning machines often lack the function of sorting out non-compliant materials before cleaning, usually requiring manual labor or additional sorting equipment for pre-sorting. This not only increases labor costs and equipment investment but also reduces overall work efficiency.
[0003] In existing material sorting technologies, most rely on image recognition modules to transmit captured material images to a control unit. The control unit then compares the images and sends instructions to a pusher motor, whose output shaft pushes the materials to achieve separation. This sorting method has significant drawbacks. Because it directly applies force to the materials, it easily causes friction and collisions with the material surface, resulting in damage. This is especially true for materials with fragile or easily damaged surfaces, such as glass products and precision instrument parts. Such damage can affect the quality and performance of the materials, reduce their usability, and even lead to their scrapping.
[0004] Chinese patent application number 2023213638049 discloses a vegetable washing and sorting device. A sorting box is fixedly installed at the rear of the washing tank, and a washing assembly is installed at the top of the washing tank. The sorting assembly is installed inside the sorting box. The washing assembly includes a lifting belt connected to the outer end of the washing tank. A filter water tank is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the washing tank. A water inlet pipe is installed at the water inlet of the filter water tank. A pressure pump is connected to the water outlet of the filter water tank through a water pipe. A water outlet pipe is installed at the water outlet of the pressure pump. A water filling pipe is connected to the middle section of the water outlet pipe, and the water outlet of the water filling pipe is located inside the washing tank.
[0005] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors have discovered the following drawbacks: the aforementioned patents do not have the function of reducing material loss during sorting and screening. Utility Model Content
[0006] In order to reduce the damage to materials caused by the sorting process before cleaning, this application provides a multi-functional cleaning machine.
[0007] The multi-functional cleaning machine provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: it includes a control unit, a graphic recognition module, and a sorting mechanism for transferring materials to the cleaning mechanism. The sorting mechanism includes a drive roller and a driven roller, with a chain belt wound around the drive roller and the driven roller. The chain belt includes chain plates, and horizontal plates and vertical plates are provided on the chain plates. Both the horizontal plates and vertical plates include plate bodies, and there are multiple plate bodies arranged sequentially. When the horizontal plates and vertical plates are evenly spaced, the chain belt will be divided into sequentially arranged storage areas. Through holes are provided in the storage areas, and a material pouring plate is hinged in the through holes. A conveyor belt for transferring materials falling through the material pouring plate is provided in the middle of the chain belt. It also includes a pushing mechanism electrically connected to the control unit. When the output end of the pushing mechanism pushes one end of the material pouring plate downward, the material will fall onto the conveyor belt.
[0008] Optionally, a spring-loaded rope mechanism is provided on a horizontal plate at one end of each storage area. The rope of the spring-loaded rope mechanism is connected to the end of the pouring plate away from the chain plate. A magnet is provided on each horizontal plate, and an iron block that cooperates with the magnet is provided at one end of the pouring plate.
[0009] Optionally, the pouring plate includes multiple small plates arranged sequentially from end to end. Adjacent small plates are rotatably connected by a rotating shaft, on which a torsion spring is provided. When the pouring plate moves to the drive roller, the small plates will adhere to the drive roller by means of the rotating shaft and the torsion spring.
[0010] Optionally, the feeding mechanism includes a fixed frame, on which a push rod motor is mounted. The fixed frame has a through hole, through which the output shaft of the push rod motor passes and is equipped with a push block for pushing the feeding plate to move.
[0011] Optionally, the conveyor belt is provided with partitions, and there are multiple partitions that are evenly spaced. Baffles are provided at the ends of two adjacent partitions. When the partitions and baffles are evenly spaced, the conveyor belt will be divided into transfer bins that are arranged sequentially and used to place materials.
[0012] Optionally, the pouring plate is provided with supports along its length, the supports are arranged in two rows and evenly spaced, and the end of the support away from the pouring plate is rotatably connected to a roller.
[0013] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:
[0014] 1. A rotatable tipping plate is installed on the conveyor belt, and with the cooperation of the push rod motor and the control unit, the material slides out from the sorting mechanism, avoiding the friction and collision caused by directly pushing the material in the traditional sorting method, and effectively reducing the damage to the material surface. The tipping plate is composed of multiple small plates connected by a rotating shaft and torsion spring. When it moves to the drive roller, it can fit against the drive roller, ensuring the smooth operation of the conveyor belt.
[0015] 2. The partitions and baffles installed on the conveyor belt form a transfer bin, which can stably hold the material falling from the discharge plate and prevent the material from rolling or slipping during the conveying process;
[0016] 3. The rollers and supports on the pouring plate provide support and guidance when the material slides out, further reducing friction between the material and the pouring plate and protecting the material surface.
[0017] 4. The combination of the spring-loaded rope mechanism and the magnet and iron block enables the unloading plate to automatically reset and position itself after unloading, ensuring the continuity and stability of the sorting operation. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.
[0024] This application discloses a multi-functional cleaning machine. For example... Figure 1 and 2As shown, the system includes a control unit, a graphic recognition module, and a sorting mechanism for transferring materials to a cleaning mechanism. A feeding mechanism, which is existing technology, is located at one end of the sorting mechanism. The sorting mechanism includes a drive roller 1 and a driven roller 2, with a chain belt 3 wound around them. The chain belt 3 includes chain plates 4. Horizontal plates 5 and vertical plates 6 are fixed to the chain plates 4 with screws. Both horizontal plates 5 and vertical plates 6 include plate bodies, and multiple plate bodies are arranged sequentially. When the horizontal plates 5 and vertical plates 6 are evenly spaced, the chain belt 3 is divided into sequentially arranged storage areas. The feeding mechanism places materials into these storage areas, where materials of different specifications and those of the specified specifications coexist. The storage areas have a rectangular box-like structure. A through-hole 7 is located within the storage area and at the position of the chain belt 3, penetrating the thickness direction of the chain belt 3. A pouring plate is hinged within the through-hole 7 and connected to the edge of the chain plate 4. The material feeding plate includes small plates 12, each with a width equal to that of the chain plate 4. Multiple small plates 12 are arranged sequentially end-to-end. Adjacent small plates 12 are rotatably connected by a rotating shaft located on one side of each small plate 12. A torsion spring is mounted on the rotating shaft. The small plates 12 can rotate clockwise but not counterclockwise. When the material feeding plate moves to the drive roller 1, the small plates 12 adhere to the drive roller 1 via the rotating shaft and the torsion spring. A conveyor belt 8 is located in the middle of the chain belt 3 for transferring materials falling from the material feeding plate. It also includes a pushing mechanism electrically connected to the control unit. When the output end of the pushing mechanism pushes one end of the material feeding plate downwards, materials of non-set specifications will fall onto the conveyor belt 8. Multiple partitions 16 are screwed onto the conveyor belt 8 and are evenly spaced. Baffles 17 are screwed to the ends of two adjacent partitions 16. When the partitions 16 and baffles 17 are evenly spaced, the conveyor belt 8 is divided into sequentially arranged transfer bins for placing materials.
[0025] In one embodiment, according to the appendix Figure 4 As shown, a spring-loaded rope mechanism 9 is screwed onto a horizontal plate 5 located at one end of each storage area. This spring-loaded rope mechanism 9 is existing technology. The rope 10 of the spring-loaded rope mechanism 9 is connected to the end of the pouring plate away from the chain plate 4. Each horizontal plate 5 has a bottom groove, with two grooves symmetrically arranged about the center line of the horizontal plate 5. A magnet 11 is glued into the bottom groove. One end of the pouring plate has an end groove, with two end grooves symmetrically arranged about the center line of the pouring plate. An iron block 20, which cooperates with the magnet 11, is glued into the end groove.
[0026] In one embodiment, according to the appendix Figure 1 As shown, the feeding mechanism includes a fixed frame 14, on which a push rod motor 13 is fixed by mounting bolts. The push rod motor 13 is prior art and is electrically connected to the control unit. The fixed frame 14 has a through hole through which the output shaft of the push rod motor 13 passes. A push block 15 for pushing the pouring plate is provided. The push block 15 is U-shaped. After the push block 15 moves down, it pushes the small plate 12 near the chain plate 4 and drives the pouring plate to rotate.
[0027] In one embodiment, according to the appendix Figure 3 As shown, the pouring plate is fixed with a support 18 by screws along its length. The support 18 has two rows and is evenly spaced. The support 18 has a "U" shaped structure. The end of the support 18 away from the pouring plate is rotatably connected to a roller 19. The roller 19 is a prior art.
[0028] The implementation principle of the multi-functional cleaning machine in this embodiment is as follows: The multi-functional cleaning machine is started, the control unit is activated, the image recognition system is activated, and the active roller 1 begins to rotate, driving the chain belt 3 to circulate between the active roller 1 and the driven roller 2. The material to be cleaned is placed in the storage area of the chain belt, and the material moves with the chain belt 3. When the storage area moves to the position of the pushing mechanism, the control unit controls the push rod motor 13 to start. The output shaft of the push rod motor passes through the through hole of the fixed frame 14, and the push block pushes one end of the pouring plate downwards. The pouring plate rotates around its hinge point with the chain plate, and non-standard materials slide down the pouring plate into the transfer bin on the conveyor belt under its own gravity, completing the separation of non-standard materials. Simultaneously, the rollers 19 and supports 18 on the pouring plate provide support and guidance, reducing friction between the material and the pouring plate. After pouring is completed, the output shaft of the push rod motor 13 retracts, and the rope 10 of the spring-loaded rope mechanism 9 pulls the pouring plate, causing it to reset and be positioned under the attraction of the magnet 11 and the iron block 20.
[0029] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
