Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of automatic fruit and vegetable sorting and packaging machine, and in particular to an automatic fruit and vegetable sorting and packaging machine. Background Technology
[0002] Fruit and vegetable sorting and packaging technology is a crucial step in ensuring the quality and commercial value of fruits and vegetables. The sorting process is based on physical and internal quality characteristics. Physical sorting is achieved by grading based on size, weight, and shape. Internal quality inspection uses near-infrared spectroscopy to measure sugar content and check for internal defects. Combined with an automated system, multiple sensors are integrated to achieve fully automated grading. Packaging technology integrates materials and preservation functions. Traditional materials such as cardboard boxes and plastic crates are used for bulk transportation. New breathable membranes, biodegradable materials, and foam plastics are adapted to different preservation needs. Modified atmosphere packaging regulates gas and inhibits respiration. Active packaging adds antibacterial agents and ethylene absorbers. Vacuum packaging is used for dry products. Packaging forms include small retail packages, gift boxes, and bulk transportation packaging. Cold chain packaging is combined with ice packs to keep products fresh. This technology is developing towards intelligence, greening, and functional integration, effectively improving circulation efficiency and reducing losses.
[0003] After harvesting fruits and vegetables, they need to be sorted and packaged to separate products of different qualities and then package them according to their quality. Currently, fruit and vegetable sorting is mostly done manually. However, after working for a long time, manual sorting can lead to fatigue among workers, resulting in products of different sizes being sorted, which reduces sorting quality and production efficiency.
