Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of lifting and transplanting mechanisms, specifically referring to a lifting and transplanting mechanism for bottle-grown fungi. Background Technology
[0002] In modern mushroom bottle cultivation, with the expansion of production scale and the improvement of automation, the demand for precise steering and efficient transplanting of mushroom bottle frames during transportation is increasing. Traditional manual handling and simple mechanical guidance methods are no longer able to meet the requirements of large-scale, continuous production. They are not only inefficient, but also prone to damage to bottle frames and instability of the mushroom growth environment.
[0003] Roller conveyors are commonly used conveying equipment that enables stable long-distance transport of mushroom containers. However, when it is necessary to turn the containers at specific locations (such as intersections of cross or T-shaped structures), the roller conveyor's structure alone is insufficient to accomplish this task. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem that this utility model aims to solve is that while roller conveyors, as a commonly used conveying equipment, can achieve stable long-distance transport of mushroom bottle frames, it is difficult to perform the turning operation of the bottle frames by relying solely on the structure of the roller conveyor itself.
[0005] To achieve the above functions, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a bottle-grown fungi lifting and transplanting mechanism, including a transplanting base plate, a telescopic component, and a transplanting frame. The telescopic component is located between the transplanting base plate and the transplanting frame. A fixing rod is fixedly connected to the transplanting base plate. In use, the fixing rod is fixed to the bottom of an external roller machine. A transmission component is provided at the top of the transplanting frame. In use, the transmission component can be inserted between the rollers of the roller machine under the drive of the telescopic component.
[0006] Preferably, the transplanting frame is U-shaped, and two sprockets are rotatably provided on the top of each of the two side walls of the transplanting frame, with a chain between the two sprockets on the same side. A drive motor is provided on the inner side wall of the transplanting frame, and the output end of the drive motor rotates through the transplanting frame and is connected to the sprocket.
[0007] Preferably, several sprockets are rotatably provided on both sides of the transplanting frame. The sprockets are close to the bottom of the chain, and the bottom of the chain is set in a W-shape to increase the stability of the transmission. At the same time, there is enough space for the top of the transplanting frame and the chain to be inserted into the roller of the roller machine for extension and retraction. The inner side wall of the transplanting frame is rotatably connected by a connecting shaft through a bearing seat. The connecting shaft connects the sprockets on both sides of the transplanting frame.
[0008] Preferably, a number of telescopic rods are provided between the transplanting base plate and the transplanting frame.
[0009] Preferably, the telescopic component includes a cylinder, the fixed end of which is fixedly connected to the transplanting base plate, and the movable end of which is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the transplanting frame.
[0010] Preferably, it also includes a photoelectric sensor, which is fixed on an external roller mill during use.
[0011] The beneficial effects of the above-mentioned structure of this utility model are as follows: the transplanting mechanism can realize the turning and transplanting of fungal bottle frames at key positions of the roller machine without manual intervention, which greatly shortens the dwell time of the bottle frames on the conveyor line, improves the overall production efficiency, and the automated turning and transplanting function replaces manual handling and operation, reduces the number of workers on the production line, and reduces the labor intensity of workers.

[0016] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0017] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. The utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0018] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model proposes a bottle-grown fungal lifting and transplanting mechanism, including a transplanting base plate 1, a telescopic component 2, and a transplanting frame 3. The telescopic component 2 is located between the transplanting base plate 1 and the transplanting frame 3. Several telescopic rods 9 are provided between the transplanting base plate 1 and the transplanting frame 3 to enhance stability during lifting. A fixing rod 4 is fixed to the transplanting base plate 1. In use, the fixing rod 4 is fixed to the bottom of an external roller mill. A transmission component 5 is provided at the top of the transplanting frame 3. In use, the transmission component 5 can be inserted between the rollers of the roller mill under the drive of the telescopic component 2. The roller mill 15 can be configured with a cross-shaped or T-shaped structure. The transplanting frame 3 is placed at the middle intersection of the roller conveyor 15. The roller conveyor 15 conveys the mushroom bottle frame 14. When the mushroom bottle frame 14 does not need to turn but moves straight, the telescopic component 2 does not need to extend, that is, the transplanting frame 3 does not lift, and the mushroom bottle frame 14 can move straight along the roller conveyor 15. When the mushroom bottle frame 14 needs to turn left or right at the center of the roller conveyor 15, the telescopic component 2 extends, which can drive the transplanting frame 3 to lift. The transmission component 5 at the top of the transplanting frame 3 extends from between the rollers of the roller conveyor 15, and the mushroom bottle frame 14 is transmitted to the transmission component 5. The transmission component 5 can transmit the mushroom bottle frame 14 to the left or right.
[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, the transplanting frame 3 has a U-shaped structure. Two sprockets 6 are rotatably mounted on the top of each of the two side walls of the transplanting frame 3, and a chain 11 is fitted between the two sprockets 6 on the same side. A drive motor 7 is provided on the inner side wall of the transplanting frame 3. The output end of the drive motor 7 rotates through the transplanting frame 3 and is connected to the sprockets 6. When the drive motor 7 is started, the sprockets 6 are driven to rotate, and the chain 11 on the sprockets 6 is driven to transmit power. When the fungus bottle frame 14 is conveyed to the chain 11, the chain 11 can lift the fungus bottle frame 14 to turn left or right.
[0020] like Figure 1As shown, several sprockets 8 are rotatably mounted on both sides of the transplanting frame 3. The sprockets 8 are close to the bottom of the chain 11, and the bottom of the chain 11 is set in a W-shape to increase the stability of the transmission. At the same time, it allows sufficient space for the top of the transplanting frame 3 and the chain 11 to be inserted into the roller of the roller machine for extension and retraction. The inner side wall of the transplanting frame 3 is rotatably connected to a connecting shaft 12 through a bearing seat. The connecting shaft 12 connects the sprockets 8 on both sides of the transplanting frame 3, and the two chains 11 can be driven synchronously through the connecting shaft 12.
[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the telescopic component 2 includes a cylinder 10, the fixed end of which is fixedly connected to the transplanting base plate 1, and the movable end of which is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the transplanting frame 3.
[0022] like Figure 2-3 As shown, it also includes a photoelectric sensor 13. In use, the photoelectric sensor 13 is fixed on the external roller machine 15. When the mushroom bottle frame 14 leaves the photoelectric sensor 13, the photoelectric sensor 13 loses the signal and will transmit it to the external PLC controller. The PLC controller controls the cylinder 10 to lift and rotate the mushroom bottle frame 14 through two sets of chains 11. After the transplanting frame 3 completes the rotation and transplanting of the bottle frame, the PLC can determine that the transplanting action has been completed based on the time delay. Once this completion signal is received, the PLC will output a control signal to retract the cylinder 10.
[0023] In practical use, the roller conveyor 15 transports the mushroom bottle frame 14, passes the photoelectric sensor 13, and continues to move forward until the photoelectric sensor 13 loses its signal. When the online speed is accurate (time delay is calculated well) and the machine reaches the lifting and transplanting area, the cylinder 10 pushes the transplanting frame 3 to rise and make mechanical movements. Then, the drive motor 7 drives the first sprocket 6 to rotate. The first sprocket 6 drives the second sprocket 8 to rotate through the chain 11. The second sprocket 8 drives another set of second sprockets 8 through the connecting shaft 12 to keep the two sets of chains 11 moving at the same speed. Transplanting can be carried out on the T-shaped or cross-shaped roller conveyor 15 by turning left or right. If transplanting is not needed, the cylinder 10 receives the PLC command and does not perform the work, and the mushroom bottle frame 1 continues to move forward.
[0024] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
