Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mushroom production and processing technology, specifically to a mushroom assembly line operation device. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of mushroom production and processing technology, the degree of automation and efficiency of assembly line equipment directly affects the overall benefits of mushroom production. At present, traditional assembly line equipment mostly adopts the single-frame palletizing mode. The palletizer can only palletize a single mushroom frame at a time. In this mode, the mushroom frames need to be transported to the palletizer station one by one, resulting in a slow palletizing pace. Especially in large-scale production, frequent single-frame operations prolong the overall operation time and make it difficult to meet the needs of high-efficiency production.

[0003] The existing equipment lacks a precise positioning and diversion system. During the conveying process, the mushroom baskets are prone to deviation and tipping. The limiting devices (such as clamps and infrared sensing components) cannot ensure that the mushroom baskets move stably along the predetermined path, which leads to positional deviation during stacking and affects the stacking accuracy and stability.

[0004] Because single-frame palletizing is inefficient and requires a lot of manpower for positioning and sorting mushroom frames during production, it not only increases labor costs but also raises time costs due to frequent downtime for adjustments, which is inconsistent with the needs of modern automated production. Therefore, it is necessary to design a mushroom assembly line device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a device for continuous mushroom production to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a mushroom production line device, including a base, a conveying mechanism on the top of the base, a blocking mechanism on the inner side of the conveying mechanism, and a palletizer fixedly connected to the left side of the top of the base;

[0007] The conveying mechanism includes a first leg, which is fixedly connected to the top left side of the base. A diversion conveying platform is fixedly connected to the top of the first leg. A second leg is fixedly connected to the bottom of the diversion conveying platform. A control panel is fixedly connected to the right side of the diversion conveying platform. A support frame is fixedly connected to the front side of the diversion conveying platform. A first hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the front side of the support frame. A first clamping plate is fixedly connected to the rear side of the first hydraulic cylinder. An infrared receiver is fixedly connected inside the first clamping plate. A fixing frame is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame. A second hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the front side of the fixing frame. A limit frame is fixedly connected to the top rear side of the fixing frame. A second clamping plate is fixedly connected to the rear side of the second hydraulic cylinder. An infrared transmitter is fixedly connected inside the second clamping plate. The top of the second clamping plate is slidably connected to the limit frame. A third hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the rear side of the diversion conveying platform. A push plate is fixedly connected to the front side of the third hydraulic cylinder.

[0008] Preferably, the first clamping plate, the second clamping plate, and the push plate are located on the top of the diversion conveying platform. The rear side of the diversion conveying platform is the main channel, and the front side is the auxiliary channel. This facilitates the restriction of the conveyed mushroom frames by the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate without affecting their movement.

[0009] Preferably, the support frame, the first hydraulic cylinder, the fixed frame, the second hydraulic cylinder, the limiting frame, the first clamping plate, the second clamping plate, the infrared transmitter, and the infrared receiver are provided in two sets, symmetrically distributed on the front and rear sides of the diversion conveyor, and located at the top of the main channel and the auxiliary channel, respectively. The two sets of the first hydraulic cylinder, the second hydraulic cylinder, the infrared transmitter, and the infrared receiver are electrically connected to the control panel, so that by setting two sets, the mushroom frames conveyed on different channels can be limited separately.

[0010] Preferably, a diversion roller is rotatably connected to the inner side of the diversion conveyor, and the diversion roller is located between the main channel and the auxiliary channel, so that the mushroom frame pushed by the pusher plate can enter the auxiliary channel from the main channel through the diversion roller.

[0011] Preferably, the second leg is fixedly connected to the top right side of the base, and the left side of the diversion conveyor is located inside the palletizer, which facilitates the conveying of mushroom frames through the diversion conveyor.

[0012] Preferably, the blocking mechanism includes a mounting base, which is fixedly connected to the left side of the second leg. A servo motor is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting base, and a threaded rod is fixedly connected to the top of the servo motor. The top of the threaded rod is rotatably connected to the bottom of the diversion conveyor. A movable frame is threadedly connected to the periphery of the threaded rod. Fixed frames are slidably connected to the front and rear sides of the movable frame. The fixed frames are fixedly connected to the top of the base. A protective plate is fixedly connected to the top of the base, and a baffle is fixedly connected to the top of the movable frame.

[0013] Preferably, the threaded rod is rotatably connected inside the mounting base, and two baffles are provided. The two baffles are symmetrically distributed on the front and rear sides of the top of the mobile frame and are slidably connected inside the diversion conveyor, respectively, and are located on the left side of the two sets of first clamping plates and second clamping plates, so that the movement of the mushroom frame can be controlled according to the stacking speed through the baffles.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a device for continuous mushroom processing, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This mushroom production line device, through its conveying mechanism, precisely pushes empty mushroom crates from the main channel to the auxiliary channel when they need to be stacked after use during mushroom production and processing. This allows the palletizer to stack two crates at once, significantly improving stacking efficiency compared to the traditional single-frame stacking mode. It effectively reduces the time mushrooms spend on the production line, increasing overall production efficiency and lowering labor and time costs. Symmetrically distributed support frames, hydraulic cylinders, clamps, and infrared transmitters and receivers on both sides form a precise positioning system. The infrared sensor monitors the position of the mushroom crates in real time, and the hydraulic cylinders drive the clamps to precisely limit the movement of the crates without affecting their movement. This ensures the stability of the crates during conveying and distribution, preventing deviations and tipping, effectively protecting the integrity and safety of the mushroom products, improving subsequent stacking efficiency and accuracy, and enhancing the overall efficiency of the production line.

[0016] 2. This mushroom processing device uses a blocking mechanism and a servo motor to drive a threaded rod to rotate. This allows for flexible control of the lifting and moving of the moving frame and baffle. When it is necessary to block the mushroom frames, the baffle rises, preventing the mushroom frames from continuing to move along the main and auxiliary channels. This ensures that the mushroom frames to be stacked in the main and auxiliary channels are moving at the same horizontal level. When it is not necessary to block the mushroom frames, the baffle lowers, allowing the mushroom frames to pass through smoothly. The empty mushroom frames can then be stacked by the palletizer.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0028] This utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0029] Example 1

[0030] Please see Figure 1-7This utility model provides a technical solution: a mushroom production line device, including a base 1, a conveying mechanism 2 on the top of the base 1, a blocking mechanism 4 on the inner side of the conveying mechanism 2, and a palletizer 3 fixedly connected to the top left side of the base 1.

[0031] The conveying mechanism 2 includes a first leg 21, which is fixedly connected to the top left side of the base 1. A diversion conveyor 22 is fixedly connected to the top of the first leg 21. A second leg 297 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the diversion conveyor 22. A control panel 24 is fixedly connected to the right side of the diversion conveyor 22. A support frame 23 is fixedly connected to the front side of the diversion conveyor 22. A first hydraulic cylinder 25 is fixedly connected to the front side of the support frame 23. A first clamping plate 29 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the first hydraulic cylinder 25. An infrared sensor is fixedly connected inside the first clamping plate 29. The receiver 293 has a fixed frame 26 fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 23. A second hydraulic cylinder 27 is fixedly connected to the front side of the fixed frame 26. A limit frame 28 is fixedly connected to the top rear side of the fixed frame 26. A second clamping plate 291 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the second hydraulic cylinder 27. An infrared emitter 292 is fixedly connected inside the second clamping plate 291. The top of the second clamping plate 291 is slidably connected to the inside of the limit frame 28. A third hydraulic cylinder 294 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the diversion conveyor 22. A push plate 295 is fixedly connected to the front side of the third hydraulic cylinder 294.

[0032] The first clamping plate 29, the second clamping plate 291, and the push plate 295 are located on the top of the diversion conveying platform 22. The rear side of the diversion conveying platform 22 is the main channel, and the front side of the diversion conveying platform 22 is the auxiliary channel. This allows the first clamping plate 29 and the second clamping plate 291 to limit the movement of the conveyed mushroom frames without affecting their movement.

[0033] The support frame 23, the first hydraulic cylinder 25, the fixing frame 26, the second hydraulic cylinder 27, the limiting frame 28, the first clamping plate 29, the second clamping plate 291, the infrared transmitter 292, and the infrared receiver 293 are provided in two sets and are symmetrically distributed on the front and rear sides of the diversion conveyor 22. They are located at the top of the main channel and the auxiliary channel, respectively. The two sets of the first hydraulic cylinder 25, the second hydraulic cylinder 27, the infrared transmitter 292, and the infrared receiver 293 are electrically connected to the control panel 24, so that by setting two sets, the mushroom frames conveyed on different channels can be limited separately.

[0034] A diversion roller 296 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the diversion conveyor 22, and the diversion roller 296 is located between the main channel and the auxiliary channel, so that the mushroom frame pushed by the push plate 295 can enter the auxiliary channel from the main channel through the diversion roller 296. The second support leg 297 is fixedly connected to the top right side of the base 1. The left side of the diversion conveyor 22 is located inside the palletizer 3, so that the mushroom frame can be conveyed through the diversion conveyor 22.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] Please see Figure 1-7 Furthermore, based on Embodiment 1, the blocking mechanism 4 further includes a mounting base 41, which is fixedly connected to the left side of the second leg 297. A servo motor 43 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting base 41, and a threaded rod 44 is fixedly connected to the top of the servo motor 43. The top of the threaded rod 44 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the diversion conveyor 22. A movable frame 45 is threadedly connected to the outer periphery of the threaded rod 44. A fixed frame 47 is slidably connected to the front and rear sides of the movable frame 45. The fixed frame 47 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. A protective plate 42 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. A baffle 46 is fixedly connected to the top of the movable frame 45.

[0037] The threaded rod 44 is rotatably connected to the inside of the mounting base 41. There are two baffles 46, which are symmetrically distributed on the front and rear sides of the top of the movable frame 45 and are slidably connected to the inside of the diversion conveyor 22. They are located on the left side of the two sets of first clamping plates 29 and second clamping plates 291, respectively, so that the movement of the mushroom frame can be controlled according to the stacking speed through the baffles 46.

[0038] In actual operation, when this device is used, and during the mushroom production and processing, it is necessary to stack the empty mushroom crates after use. First, place the stacking tray to the left of the distribution conveyor 22, inside the stacking machine 3. Then, power the distribution conveyor 22 through an external power supply to enable it to operate.

[0039] The servo motor 43 drives the movable frame 45, which is connected to the threaded rod 44, to move. The movable frame 45 slides inside the fixed frame 47 on both sides, which in turn drives the baffle 46 to move. The baffle 46 slides inside the diversion conveyor 22 and is located in the main channel and the auxiliary channel respectively.

[0040] At this time, the empty mushroom basket is placed on top of the diversion conveyor 22 for conveying. During the conveying process, when the first mushroom basket moves to the inside of the first clamping plate 29 and the second clamping plate 291 of the main channel, it will block the infrared transmitter 292 and the infrared receiver 293, thereby feeding the data back to the control panel 24. The control panel 24 controls the first hydraulic cylinder 25 and the second hydraulic cylinder 27 to work synchronously, respectively driving the first clamping plate 29 and the second clamping plate 291 to move, and causing the top of the second clamping plate 291 to slide inside the limit frame 28, so that the first clamping plate 29 and the second clamping plate 291 move to the front and rear sides of the mushroom basket without affecting the movement of the mushroom basket, so that the mushroom basket in the main channel is on the right side of the baffle 46 for waiting.

[0041] As the second mushroom frame continues to move along the main channel of the diversion conveyor 22 to the front of the push plate 295, the third hydraulic cylinder 294 drives the push plate 295 to move, thus pushing the mushroom frame onto the diversion roller 296 and onto the auxiliary channel. Moving to the left on the auxiliary channel, when it is inside the first clamping plate 29 and the second clamping plate 291, it blocks the infrared receiver 293 and infrared transmitter 292 on the auxiliary channel. This data is also fed back to the control panel 24, causing the first clamping plate 29 and the second clamping plate 291 on the auxiliary channel to... Plate 291 is used to limit the mushroom frame without affecting its movement. When the second mushroom frame is also on the right side of the baffle 46 and is on the same horizontal plane as the first mushroom frame, the threaded rod 44 and the moving frame 45 can be moved again under the action of the servo motor 43, so that the baffle 46 is lowered to ensure the continued movement of the mushroom frame. When the servo motor 43 is working, the palletizer 3 works at the same time and is lowered to clamp and fix the mushroom frame conveyed to the inside of the palletizer 3 and stack it onto the palletizing tray. This is repeated to realize the palletizing work.

[0042] This enables the palletizer 3 to palletize two mushroom crates at once, which greatly improves palletizing efficiency compared to the traditional single-crate palletizing mode, effectively reduces the time the mushrooms stay on the production line, and improves the overall production efficiency of the mushroom production line.

[0043] The infrared transmitter 292 used in this case is model JX-0805IR-940, and the infrared receiver 293 is model VS1838. The transmitter and receiver can be used together. The control panel 24 is model Siemens MTP700, which can control the movement stroke of each hydraulic cylinder and control the start and stop of the servo motor 43, thereby improving the automation operation. This is existing technology. Furthermore, the palletizer 3 and the diversion conveyor 22 are also existing technologies. Those skilled in the art can clearly know and understand the specific operating steps and methods of these devices, and will not be described in detail in this case.

[0044] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus.
