Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seed sorting equipment technology, specifically to a seed gravity sorting device. Background Technology

[0002] A seed is the structure that grows from the ovule of a seed plant after fertilization. It generally consists of the seed coat, embryo, and endosperm. The embryo is the most important part of the seed and grows into a new individual after germination. The endosperm contains nutrients. Seeds are the reproductive bodies unique to gymnosperms and angiosperms, formed from ovules through pollination and fertilization. Patent CN202222914560.0 discloses a seed gravity sorting and seed grading device. In this device, seeds to be sorted are placed in a hopper, and a reciprocating mechanism moves the hopper left and right, evenly scattering the seeds into a sorting tank. The seeds fall into the water in the sorting tank; the heavier finished seeds fall to the bottom of the tank, while the lighter waste seeds float on the surface. The finished and waste seeds flow with the water flow through a first and second square opening into the finished seed pool and waste seed pool, respectively. However, during the use of this gravity sorting equipment, seeds tend to clump together when falling from the hopper into the sorting tank, and some finished seeds float on the surface of the waste seeds, easily flowing into the waste recycling pool, resulting in waste. Therefore, we propose a seed gravity sorting device. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the problems in the existing technology, this utility model provides a seed gravity sorting device.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is a seed gravity sorting device, including a sorting equipment body. The top surface of the sorting equipment body is equipped with a U-shaped frame for support, and there are two sets of U-shaped frames. A straight rod for auxiliary support is integrally constructed between the two sets of U-shaped frames, and there are two sets of straight rods. A groove for limiting the position is opened on the opposite side of the two sets of straight rods. A lead screw for adjustment is rotatably installed between the two sets of U-shaped frames, and there are two sets of lead screws. An F-shaped plate that fits into the groove is screwed onto the outer periphery of the lead screw, and an L-shaped plate that fits into the F-shaped plate is bolted onto the top surface of the F-shaped plate. A hopper for holding seeds is integrally constructed between the two sets of L-shaped plates. A sprocket for transmission is assembled on the outer end surface of the lead screw, and a chain for transmission is assembled between the two sets of sprockets.

[0005] The bottom discharge end of the hopper is bolted with a ring seat for support, and the bottom surface of the ring seat is integrally constructed with a T-shaped seat for support. There are multiple sets of T-shaped seats. The end of the T-shaped seat away from the ring seat is bonded with a sponge ring for cushioning. The bottom surface of the T-shaped seat is bolted with a T-shaped rod that abuts against the sponge ring. The ends of the multiple sets of T-shaped rods away from the T-shaped seat are integrally constructed with a conical disc corresponding to the discharge end of the hopper. The inner side of the conical disc is equipped with an ultrasonic vibrating rod for assisting material distribution.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, during the use of the seed gravity sorting equipment, seeds can be easily placed into the hopper, and the screw between the two sets of U-shaped frames rotates and is screwed together with the F-shaped plate between the two sets of U-shaped frames, causing the F-shaped plate to slide. At the same time, the groove on the outer periphery of the straight rod between the two sets of U-shaped frames can fit and slide with the F-shaped plate, which can improve the stability of the F-shaped plate during sliding displacement. This allows the F-shaped plate to stably drive the L-shaped plate and cause the hopper to move back and forth, so that the seeds can be poured evenly into the main body of the sorting equipment. The internal structure of the sorting equipment facilitates the sorting of seeds.

[0007] When seeds are discharged from the hopper outlet, they pass through the ring seat and fall onto the surface of the conical disc. The conical disc further diverts the seeds, while the ultrasonic vibrating rod at the bottom of the conical disc operates, transmitting a certain vibration force to the conical disc. This allows the seeds to fall more evenly into the sorting pool inside the main body of the sorting equipment, reducing seed accumulation. At the same time, the top of the output shaft of the ultrasonic vibrating rod is located inside the hopper outlet, assisting in the discharge of the hopper and reducing the situation of seeds being squeezed and stuck together at the hopper outlet. The sponge ring between the T-shaped seat and the T-shaped rod provides a certain degree of buffering and protection, thereby reducing the vibration force transmitted from the T-shaped rod to the T-shaped seat.

[0008] Specifically, the ultrasonic vibrating rod is fitted with a rubber sleeve that engages with the conical disk, and the bottom surface of the conical disk has an annular groove.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the rubber sleeve can easily seal the gap between the ultrasonic vibrator and the conical disk, which can reduce the possibility of seeds entering it, while the annular groove at the bottom of the conical disk can reduce the possibility of water in the seeds flowing freely along the bottom of the conical disk.

[0010] Specifically, the discharge end of the hopper is equipped with a solenoid valve for controlling its opening and closing.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the solenoid valve can easily control the opening and closing of the hopper discharge end, and facilitate the control of whether the hopper discharges material.

[0012] Specifically, the outer wall surface of the U-shaped frame is equipped with a worm gear reducer that is connected to the lead screw, and a servo motor is installed at the power input end of the worm gear reducer.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the servo motor can easily drive the lead screw between the two sets of U-shaped frames to rotate under the operation of the worm gear reducer, thus providing power to it.

[0014] Specifically, the top surface of the F-shaped plate is integrally constructed with a protruding rod that is inserted and connected to the L-shaped plate.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the protruding rod at the top of the F-shaped plate can be easily inserted into the L-shaped plate, which can improve the stability when the L-shaped plate and the F-shaped plate are connected.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. The technical solution of this application, through the design of the U-shaped frame, lead screw, sprocket, chain, F-shaped plate, L-shaped plate and hopper, allows for convenient placement of seeds into the hopper during the use of the seed gravity sorting equipment. The lead screw between the two sets of U-shaped frames rotates and screws together with the F-shaped plate between the two sets of U-shaped frames, causing the F-shaped plate to slide. Simultaneously, the grooves on the outer periphery of the straight rods between the two sets of U-shaped frames can engage and slide with the F-shaped plate, improving the stability of the F-shaped plate during sliding displacement. This allows the F-shaped plate to stably drive the L-shaped plate, causing the hopper to move back and forth, ensuring that seeds are evenly poured into the main body of the sorting equipment. Furthermore, the internal structure of the sorting equipment facilitates seed sorting.

[0018] 2. The technical solution of this application, through the design of a ring seat, a T-shaped seat, a sponge ring, a T-shaped rod, a conical disk, and an ultrasonic vibrating rod, allows seeds to pass through the ring seat and fall onto the surface of the conical disk when discharged from the hopper outlet. The conical disk further diverts the seeds, while the ultrasonic vibrating rod at the bottom of the conical disk operates and transmits a certain vibration force to the conical disk. This allows the seeds to fall more evenly into the sorting pool inside the main body of the sorting equipment, reducing seed accumulation. The top of the output shaft of the ultrasonic vibrating rod is located inside the hopper outlet, assisting in the discharge of the hopper and reducing seed compression and jamming at the outlet. The sponge ring between the T-shaped seat and the T-shaped rod provides cushioning and protection, thus reducing the vibration force transmitted from the T-shaped rod to the T-shaped seat.

[0024] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a seed gravity sorting device, including a sorting equipment body 1. The top surface of the sorting equipment body 1 is fitted with a U-shaped frame 2 for support, and there are two sets of U-shaped frames 2. A straight rod 18 for auxiliary support is integrally constructed between the two sets of U-shaped frames 2, and there are two sets of straight rods 18. Each set of straight rods 18 has a groove 19 for limiting on its opposite side. A lead screw 3 for adjustment is rotatably installed between the two sets of U-shaped frames 2, and there are two sets of lead screws 3. An F-shaped plate 6 that fits into the groove 19 is screwed onto the outer periphery of the lead screw 3. An L-shaped plate 7 that fits into the F-shaped plate 6 is bolted to the top surface of the F-shaped plate 6. An integral structure for holding the two sets of L-shaped plates 7 is constructed between them. The seed hopper 8 has a sprocket 4 for transmission mounted on the outer end surface of the lead screw 3, and a chain 5 for transmission is mounted between the two sets of sprockets 4. The bottom discharge end of the hopper 8 is bolted to a ring seat 9 for support, and the bottom surface of the ring seat 9 is integrally constructed with a T-shaped seat for support. There are multiple sets of T-shaped seats 10. The end of the T-shaped seat 10 away from the ring seat 9 is bonded with a sponge ring 11 for cushioning, and the bottom surface of the T-shaped seat 10 is bolted to a T-shaped rod 12 that abuts against the sponge ring 11. The ends of the multiple sets of T-shaped rods 12 away from the T-shaped seat 10 are integrally constructed with a conical disc 13 corresponding to the discharge end of the hopper 8, and an ultrasonic vibrating rod 14 for assisting in material distribution is mounted on the inner side of the conical disc 13.

[0026] During use, when using the seed gravity sorting equipment, seeds can be easily placed into the hopper 8, and the screw 3 between the two sets of U-shaped frames 2 rotates and is screwed together with the F-shaped plate 6 between the two sets of U-shaped frames 2, causing the F-shaped plate 6 to slide. At the same time, the groove 19 on the outer periphery of the straight rod 18 between the two sets of U-shaped frames 2 can fit and slide with the F-shaped plate 6, which helps to improve the stability of the F-shaped plate 6 during sliding displacement. This allows the F-shaped plate 6 to stably drive the L-shaped plate 7 and cause the hopper 8 to move back and forth, so that the seeds can be poured evenly into the sorting equipment body 1. The internal structure of the sorting equipment body 1 facilitates the sorting of seeds.

[0027] When seeds are discharged from the discharge end of hopper 8, they pass through the ring seat 9 and fall onto the surface of conical disc 13. Conical disc 13 can further divert the seeds, and at the same time, the ultrasonic vibrating rod 14 at the bottom of conical disc 13 operates and transmits a certain vibration force to conical disc 13, so that the seeds can fall more evenly into the sorting pool inside the main body 1 of the sorting equipment along the guide of conical disc 13, which helps to reduce the accumulation of seeds. At the same time, the top of the output shaft of ultrasonic vibrating rod 14 is located inside the discharge end of hopper 8, thereby assisting the discharge end of hopper 8 in discharging materials, which helps to reduce the situation of seeds being squeezed and stuck together at the discharge end of hopper 8. In addition, the sponge ring 11 between T-shaped seat 10 and T-shaped rod 12 can improve a certain buffering and protective performance, thereby reducing the vibration force transmitted from T-shaped rod 12 to T-shaped seat 10 to a certain extent.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, the ultrasonic vibrating rod 14 is fitted with a rubber sleeve 15 that engages with the conical disk 13, and an annular groove 16 is provided on the bottom surface of the conical disk 13.

[0029] When in use, the rubber sleeve 15 can seal the gap between the ultrasonic vibrating rod 14 and the conical disk 13, which can reduce the possibility of seeds entering it. The annular groove 16 at the bottom of the conical disk 13 can reduce the possibility of water in the seeds flowing freely along the bottom of the conical disk 13.

[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, the discharge end of the hopper 8 is equipped with a solenoid valve 17 for controlling its opening and closing.

[0031] When in use, the solenoid valve 17 facilitates the opening and closing of the discharge end of the hopper 8, and makes it easy to control whether the hopper 8 discharges material.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the outer wall surface of the U-shaped frame 2 is equipped with a worm gear reducer 21 that is connected to the lead screw 3 for transmission, and the power input end of the worm gear reducer 21 is equipped with a servo motor 22.

[0033] In use, the servo motor 22 operates conveniently, driving the lead screw 3 between the two sets of U-shaped frames 2 to rotate under the operation of the worm gear reducer 21, thus providing power to it.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the top surface of the F-type plate 6 has an integrally formed protrusion 20 that is inserted and connected to the L-type plate 7.

[0035] When in use, the protruding rod 20 on the top of the F-type plate 6 can be easily inserted into the L-type plate 7, which can improve the stability when the L-type plate 7 and the F-type plate 6 are connected.

[0036] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: In use, the corresponding structural components are first installed in suitable positions. During the use of the seed gravity sorting equipment, seeds can be easily placed into the hopper 8. The servo motor 22 on the outside of the U-shaped frame 2 operates, and under the operation of the worm gear reducer 21, it drives the lead screw 3 between the two sets of U-shaped frames 2 to rotate. The two sets of lead screws 3 inside the U-shaped frame 2 can rotate synchronously under the mutual transmission of the sprocket 4 and chain 5. Subsequently, the F-shaped plates 6 between the two sets of U-shaped frames 2 are screwed together, causing the F-shaped plates 6 to slide. Simultaneously, the grooves 19 on the outer periphery of the straight rods 18 between the two sets of U-shaped frames 2 can engage and slide with the F-shaped plates 6, improving the stability of the F-shaped plates during sliding displacement. This allows the F-shaped plates 6 to stably drive the L-shaped plates 7, causing the hopper 8 to move back and forth, ensuring that the seeds are evenly poured into the main body 1 of the sorting equipment. The internal structure of the sorting equipment main body 1 operates smoothly. The seeds are then sorted, and when they are discharged from the discharge end of the hopper 8, they pass through the ring seat 9 and fall onto the surface of the conical disk 13. The conical disk 13 can further divert the seeds, and at the same time, the ultrasonic vibrating rod 14 at the bottom of the conical disk 13 operates and transmits a certain vibration force to the conical disk 13, so that the seeds can fall more evenly into the sorting pool inside the main body 1 of the sorting equipment along the guide of the conical disk 13, which helps to reduce the accumulation of seeds. At the same time, the top of the output shaft of the ultrasonic vibrating rod 14 is located inside the discharge end of the hopper 8, thereby assisting the discharge end of the hopper 8 to discharge the material, which helps to reduce the situation of seeds squeezing and jamming each other at the discharge end of the hopper 8. The sponge ring 11 between the T-shaped seat 10 and the T-shaped rod 12 can improve the buffering and protection performance, thereby reducing the vibration force transmitted from the T-shaped rod 12 to the T-shaped seat 10 to a certain extent, so that the sorting equipment can sort seeds more stably.

[0037] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The descriptions of the above embodiments and specifications are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
