Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of edible fungus transportation technology, and more specifically, to an intelligent material frame handling robot for edible fungus cultivation cabins. Background Technology
[0002] In the current trend of large-scale and intensive development of the edible mushroom cultivation industry, mushroom cultivation cabins are widely used as important facilities for efficient mushroom cultivation. In the production process within these cabins, the material frame handling is crucial, typically using existing material frame handling machines (conveyor structures) to transfer the mushroom material frames between different stages. However, a problem needs to be addressed during actual handling. Due to the growth characteristics of edible mushrooms, their roots accumulate soil, stems, and other impurities. During material frame handling, these impurities may fall through the gaps in the material frames onto the conveyor belt. As handling continues, the impurities accumulate on the conveyor belt. When subsequent material frames are placed on the conveyor belt, the fallen impurities can contaminate newly placed edible mushrooms, seriously affecting their quality and hygiene. Moreover, cleaning the contaminated conveyor belt is difficult, increasing not only the workload and cost of manual cleaning but also the risk of continuous contamination due to untimely or incomplete cleaning, leading to economic losses for mushroom cultivation enterprises. Therefore, an intelligent material frame handling robot for mushroom cultivation cabins is needed to effectively solve the conveyor belt contamination problem. Utility Model Content

The following description is merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope, application, or use of this disclosure. It should be understood that in all these drawings, the same or similar reference numerals indicate the same or similar parts and features. The various drawings only schematically illustrate the concept and principle of the embodiments of this disclosure and do not necessarily show the specific dimensions and proportions of the various embodiments of this disclosure. The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model.
[0024] Example 1: This example provides an intelligent material frame transport robot for a mushroom cultivation container, including a material frame transporter 1. Multiple material frames 2 are placed on the upper surface of the material frame transporter 1, and a conveyor belt cleaning mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to the right side of the bottom surface. Rotary rollers are rotatably mounted at both ends of the conveyor belt frame 101 of the material frame transporter 1, winding a conveyor belt 107. A housing 104 is fixed in the middle of the bottom. A drive motor 103 is installed on the right side of the housing 104. A driven roller 102 and a tension roller 106 are rotatably mounted on the upper left side of the inner cavity, and a drive roller 105 is rotatably mounted below. The front end of the drive roller 105 is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 103 via a chain and sprocket. The conveyor belt 107 passes through the housing 104 and sequentially winds the driven roller 102, drive roller 105, and tension roller 106. The drive motor 103 drives the drive roller 105 to rotate, causing the conveyor belt 107 to move and transport the edible mushrooms in the material frames 2. A support plate 305 is fixed on the right side of the upper surface of the base plate 301 of the conveyor belt cleaning mechanism 3. The top of the support plate 305 is fixedly connected to the bottom right side of the conveyor belt frame 101. A notch is opened at the top for the conveyor belt 107 to pass through. Side plates 303 are fixed at the front and back of the upper surface of the base plate 301. A baffle 302 is fixed between the side plates 303. A sponge strip 304 is snapped onto the top of the baffle 302. The top of the sponge strip 304 contacts the bottom of the conveyor belt 107. The baffle 302 divides the space above the base plate 301 into left and right parts. The bottom of the base plate 301 is fixedly connected to the circulating water tank 306 and the water pump 309. A water filter 308 is installed through the right side of the bottom surface. The water inlet of the water filter 308 is fixed to the bottom right side of the base plate 301 through an opening. The clean water outlet is connected to the inside of the circulating water tank 306 through a water pipe. The liquid extraction end of the water pump 309 is connected to the inside of the circulating water tank 306 through a pipe. The delivery end is connected to the water delivery pipe 310. A row of branch pipes inclined at 45° is connected to the top surface of the water delivery pipe 310. The branch pipes pass through the through hole opened on the top right side of the base plate 301. A sealing ring is installed in the through hole. The end of the branch pipe is connected to the nozzle 307. During operation, the water pump 309 draws water from the circulating water tank 306 and delivers it to the nozzle 307 via the water supply pipe 310 and branch pipe. The nozzle 307 sprays water onto the bottom of the conveyor belt 107. The water carries dirt, stems, roots, and other impurities from the conveyor belt 107 to the right side of the bottom plate 301. After being filtered by the water filter 308, the clean water is discharged back into the circulating water tank 306 for reuse. The sponge strip 304 wipes away residual water and dirt from the bottom of the conveyor belt 107.
[0025] Example 2: This example describes an intelligent material handling robot for a mushroom cultivation container. The material handling machine 1 has the same structure as in Example 1. The conveyor belt frame 101 has rotating rollers supporting the conveyor belt 107. Rollers inside the housing 104 work with a drive motor 103 to rotate the conveyor belt 107 and transport the mushrooms in the material frame 2. In the conveyor belt cleaning mechanism 3, the support plate 305 on the bottom plate 301 is securely connected to the bottom right side of the conveyor belt frame 101, with a notch ensuring the conveyor belt 107 can pass smoothly. The side plate 303 and the baffle 302 form a stable structure, and the sponge strip 304 is tightly fitted to the bottom of the conveyor belt 107. The circulating water tank 306 at the bottom of the base plate 301 stores cleaning water. After the water pump 309 is started, water is drawn out from the circulating water tank 306 and reaches the nozzle 307 through the water supply pipe 310 and branch pipe. The nozzle 307 sprays water evenly onto the bottom of the conveyor belt 107. The water flow washes away impurities on the conveyor belt 107 to the right side, and after being filtered by the water filter 308, the clean water returns to the circulating water tank 306. The sponge strip 304 continuously wipes the conveyor belt 107 during operation to remove residual water and dirt and avoid contamination of subsequent edible fungi.
[0026] Example 3: This example describes an intelligent material handling robot for a mushroom cultivation container. The conveyor belt frame 101 of the material handling machine 1 supports the conveyor belt 107 via rotating rollers. Inside the housing 104, a drive motor 103 drives a drive roller 105 via a chain and sprocket, causing the conveyor belt 107 to move and transport the mushrooms within the material frame 2. A conveyor belt cleaning mechanism 3 is installed on the bottom right side of the material handling machine 1. A support plate 305 on the bottom plate 301 is firmly connected to the conveyor belt frame 101, with a notch adapted to fit the conveyor belt 107. The side plates 303 and baffles 302 are reliably fixed, and the sponge strip 304 maintains good contact with the bottom of the conveyor belt 107. When the conveyor belt 107 moves to the cleaning area, the water pump 309 draws water from the circulating water tank 306 and delivers it to the nozzle 307 through the water pipe 310 and branch pipe. The nozzle 307 sprays water to clean the bottom of the conveyor belt 107. The water flow carries impurities to the right side of the bottom plate 301. After being filtered by the water filter 308, the clean water returns to the circulating water tank 306. The sponge strip 304 further wipes the bottom of the conveyor belt 107 to ensure that the conveyor belt 107 is clean and to prevent the soil and stems of the edible fungi from contaminating the subsequent edible fungi during the material frame transportation.
[0027] Based on the above-described preferred technical solution, the workflow of the technical solution is explained as follows: The drive motor 103 of the material frame conveyor 1 starts. Since the front end of the drive roller 105 and the output shaft of the drive motor 103 are connected by a chain and sprocket, the drive motor 103 will drive the drive roller 105 to rotate. The rotating rollers at both ends of the conveyor belt frame 101 support the conveyor belt 107. The conveyor belt 107 passes into the machine housing 104 and is wound with the driven roller 102, the drive roller 105 and the tension roller 106 in sequence. When the drive roller 105 rotates, it will drive the conveyor belt 107 to rotate, thereby moving the multiple material frames 2 placed on the upper surface of the material frame conveyor 1, realizing the transportation of edible fungi. During the operation of conveyor belt 107, the conveyor belt cleaning mechanism 3 starts working. The pump 309's suction end is connected to the circulating water tank 306 through a pipe. After the pump 309 starts, it draws water out of the circulating water tank 306 and transports it through the water supply pipe 310 connected to the conveyor end. The top surface of the water supply pipe 310 is connected to a row of branch pipes inclined at 45°, and the branch pipes pass through a through hole opened on the right side of the top surface of the bottom plate 301 (a sealing ring is installed inside the through hole to prevent water leakage). The end of the branch pipe is connected to the nozzle 307. Water reaches the nozzle 307 through the water supply pipe 310 and the branch pipes. The nozzle 307 sprays water onto the bottom of the conveyor belt 107 to clean the conveyor belt 107. The water carries away any soil, stems, and other impurities that may be present on the conveyor belt 107 from the roots of edible fungi and flows into the right space above the bottom plate 301. A water filter 308 is installed through the bottom surface of the bottom plate 301 on the right side. The inlet of the water filter 308... The water end is fixed to the right side of the bottom surface of the base plate 301 through an opening. After the water containing impurities is filtered by the water filter 308, the clean water outlet is discharged into the circulating water tank 306 through a water pipe to achieve water recycling. At the same time, the side plates 303 on the front and rear of the upper surface of the base plate 301 are fixedly connected to each other by baffles 302. The baffles 302 divide the space above the base plate 301 into left and right parts. The top of the baffles 302 is attached to a sponge strip 304. The top surface of the sponge strip 304 contacts the bottom surface of the conveyor belt 107. When the conveyor belt 107 runs past the sponge strip 304, the sponge strip 304 will wipe the residual water and dirt on the bottom of the conveyor belt 107 after washing, further ensuring the cleanliness of the conveyor belt 107 and preventing the soil and stems of the edible fungi from falling onto the conveyor belt 107 during the handling of the material frame 2, which would cause contamination of the subsequent edible fungi.
[0028] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
