[0002] Coffee, made from roasted coffee beans, is one of the world's three major beverages, alongside cocoa and tea. It has a stimulating and invigorating effect due to its caffeine content. Coffee processing refers to the entire process from harvesting the coffee cherries to obtaining roastable coffee beans, including steps such as harvesting, hulling, fermentation, washing, drying, and sorting.

[0003] Coffee sorting refers to the process of screening and classifying coffee beans after harvest to ensure that only high-quality beans are used for processing. The purpose of sorting is to remove defective beans, immature beans, impurities, and other beans that do not meet quality standards. This process has a significant impact on the final taste and quality of the coffee. Current sorting systems mostly use filters; however, the pore size of these filters is fixed. To obtain coffee beans with more particle size classifications, multiple sets of filters with different pore sizes are needed. Changing between sorting systems or filters during this process is time-consuming, severely impacting sorting efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, this invention proposes a coffee bean sorting machine structure based on vibration screening to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0025] Reference Figure 1-4A coffee bean sorting machine structure based on vibration sieving includes a screen 1 and a frame 4. The screen 1 has side panels on both sides. A vibration motor 5 is fixedly installed on the lower side of the frame 4. The output shaft of the vibration motor 5 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the screen 1. The screen 1 has a square structure on its top surface, and is tilted towards one front corner of the square. A scissor frame 11 is provided on the front side of the screen 1. Several screening rods 12 are installed inside the scissor frame 11, and all screening rods 12 are connected to the upper and lower hinges of the scissor frame 11. The screening rods 12 are located on the upper surface of the screen 1. One side of the scissor frame 11 is fixed. On the screen 1, this coffee bean sorting mechanism is set with a screen 1 tilted to one corner. The vibration motor 5 controls the screen 1 connected to the upper side to vibrate and screen the coffee beans passing through the surface of the screen 1. Unqualified coffee beans and bean skins are removed through the filter of the screen 1. Several screening rods 12 set at the front side in conjunction with the scissor frame 11 can control the opening and closing of the scissor frame 11 to control the spacing of the screening rods 12. The spacing can be adjusted reasonably according to the particle size of the coffee beans to be screened. Coffee beans with qualified particle size are screened out to the front side of the screen 1, while coffee beans with larger particle size are temporarily left inside the screen 1.

[0026] An L-shaped frame 2 is fixedly connected to the other side of the scissor frame 11. A guide plate 3 located on the upper side of the screen 1 is fixed to the rear side of the L-shaped frame 2. The L-shaped frame 2 is located at one corner of the front side of the screen 1 and slides left and right on the screen 1. The guide plate 3 slides left and right on the surface of the screen 1. A stud 17 is fixedly connected to the front left side of the L-shaped frame 2. A slot corresponding to the stud 17 is opened on the front side of the screen 1, and a locking nut 18 is provided on the stud 17 that is close to the surface of the screen 1. A valve plate 20 is rotatably connected to the left side inside the L-shaped frame 2. The valve plate 20 is located between the L-shaped frame 2 and the guide plate 3. A torsion spring is provided at the junction of the valve plate 20, and a limiting protrusion corresponding to the valve plate 20 is provided inside the L-shaped frame 2. The other side of the sliding scissor frame 11 is connected to... The L-shaped frame 2 allows for adjustment of the spacing of the sieving rods 12. Once the sieving spacing is determined, the locking nut 18 on the stud 17 is rotated so that the locking nut 18 is tightly attached to the front surface of the screen 1, thereby locking the position of the L-shaped frame 2 on the screen 1. Since the screen 1 is tilted towards one corner of the L-shaped frame 2, the coffee beans with larger particle sizes after sieving enter the interior of the L-shaped frame 2 through the valve plate 20 and remain in the space composed of the guide plate 3, the L-shaped frame 2, and the screen 1 enclosure. The torsion spring and the limiting protrusion of the valve plate 20 ensure unidirectional flow of the valve plate 20 and, in the absence of external force, the valve plate 20 is closed to prevent the screen 1 from vibrating and shaking out the coffee beans that have entered.

[0027] A movable plate 13 is provided between the L-shaped frame 2 and the guide plate 3. The movable plate 13 slides back and forth on the screen 1. Several positioning slots 19 corresponding to the movable plate 13 are evenly arranged on the inner side of the L-shaped frame 2. A spring 15 is provided between the rear of the movable plate 13 and the inside of the screen 1. An opening corresponding to the movable plate 13 is opened at the front end of one side of the screen 1. A contact block 14 located outside the screen 1 is fixed to the outer rear part of the movable plate 13. A lever 16 corresponding to the contact block 14 is rotatably connected to the outer side of one side of the screen 1, and the lever 16 is connected to a small motor installed on the side. While the vibrating sieve 1 is performing its sieving operation, a small motor on one side of the enclosure is started. The small motor controls the connected lever 16 to rotate. Each rotation of the lever 16 completes the compression of the contact block 14. After the lever 16 has completely rotated past the contact block 14, the movable plate 13 connected to the contact block 14 returns to its initial position under the elastic force of the spring 15. Therefore, each rotation of the lever 16 completes the opening and closing of the movable plate 13 to one side of the opening, allowing the coffee beans accumulated in the space composed of the guide plate 3, the L-shaped frame 2, and the enclosure of the sieve 1 to be discharged once.

[0028] The frame 4 has sliding shafts 7 fixed on both sides. Sliding blocks 6 that slide back and forth on the frame 4 are sleeved on the outside of the sliding shafts 7. Springs 8 are sleeved on the front and back sides of the sliding shafts 7. A second sliding shaft 9 is fixed on the upper side of the sliding shafts 6. The second sliding shaft 9 passes through the bottom of the upper screen 1. Springs 10 located between the screen 1 and the sliding blocks 6 are sleeved on the sides of the second sliding shaft 9. The frame 4 structure, the sliding blocks 6 that slide on the sliding shafts 7, and the screen 1 that slides up and down on the second sliding shaft 9, together with the vibration motor 5 connected to the screen 1, can increase the vibration amplitude of the connected screen 1 and form a lifting structure for the screen 1, ensuring the normal and stable operation of the screening mechanism. Therefore, the vibrating screening structure composed of the screen 1 and the front screening rod 11 can not only complete the first impurity removal work of screening coffee beans, but also sort the coffee beans according to the size of the coffee bean particles. The screening particle size is adjustable, and coffee beans of different particle sizes can be obtained by screening multiple times.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
