Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of egg processing technology, specifically to an egg packaging and screening device. Background Technology

[0002] Eggs, as a common food in daily life, have rich nutritional value and can be cooked in various ways. Egg processing refers to the process of using poultry eggs (such as chicken eggs, duck eggs, quail eggs, etc.) as raw materials and changing their form or properties through physical, chemical or biological means to make egg products that can be eaten directly or used as industrial raw materials.

[0003] Currently, on egg production lines, eggs are inspected and screened before being placed in egg trays for protection. However, existing technologies use LED lights installed on conveyor equipment to inspect the eggs. If unqualified products are detected, they need to be manually removed and discarded, which increases the workload. Therefore, an egg packaging and screening device is proposed, in which a cylinder drives an n-shaped pusher block to move and push the unqualified eggs conveyed on the conveyor belt onto the discharge ladder for discharge. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problems in the existing technology, this utility model provides an egg packaging and screening device. The operation of the cylinder drives the n-shaped pusher block to move, pushing the unqualified eggs conveyed on the conveyor belt onto the discharge ladder and out.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is an egg packaging and screening device, including a conveying channel. A detection and screening component is provided on one side of the conveying channel. The detection and screening component includes a cylinder. An n-shaped pusher block is fixed to the output shaft on one side of the cylinder through a flange. A high-definition camera is fixed through the top of the n-shaped pusher block through a mounting bracket.

[0006] A servo motor is mounted on one end of the conveying channel via a mounting bracket. A first transmission roller is rotatably connected to one end of the conveying channel via a bearing. A second transmission roller is rotatably connected to the other end of the conveying channel via a bearing. A conveyor belt is sleeved on the outside of the second transmission roller. An LED light box is fixed inside the conveying channel between the first and second transmission rollers via bolts.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the servo motor drives the conveyor belt to rotate and transport the eggs. The LED light box performs optical inspection on the eggs during the transport process. The cylinder pushes the n-shaped pusher block to move and push out the eggs that fail the optical inspection on the conveyor belt.

[0008] Specifically, a support frame is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the cylinder, and the support frame is fixed to one side of the conveying channel by bolts.

[0009] Specifically, the top two ends of the conveying channel are provided with reserved slots, and the bottom two ends of the n-shaped pusher block are located inside the reserved slots.

[0010] Specifically, the output shaft on one side of the servo motor is fixedly connected to one end of the first transmission roller via a connecting sleeve.

[0011] Specifically, the conveyor belt surface has large through holes at equal intervals, and the surface of the conveyor belt outside the large through holes has small through holes at equal intervals.

[0012] Specifically, a discharge ladder is bolted to the side of the conveying channel away from the cylinder.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] (1) The egg packaging and screening device of this utility model allows personnel to observe the image captured by the high-definition camera on the computer. If the eggs are found to be substandard, the computer intelligent control device controls the servo motor to stop and controls the cylinder to work. The cylinder pushes the n-shaped pusher block to move and pushes the substandard eggs on the conveyor belt to the discharge ladder for the purpose of removing the substandard eggs.

[0015] (2) The egg packaging and screening device of this utility model is driven by a servo motor to rotate the first transmission roller. The rotation of the first transmission roller drives the transmission belt outside the second transmission roller to rotate, thus conveying the eggs. The LED light box illuminates the eggs on the transmission belt and evaluates the quality of the eggs by the penetration and reflection characteristics of the light. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0021] 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.

[0022] The cylinder's operation drives the N-shaped pusher block to move, pushing the substandard eggs conveyed on the conveyor belt onto the discharge ladder and out. Figure 1-3 As shown, the egg packaging and screening device of this utility model includes a conveying channel 1. A detection and screening component 2 is provided on one side of the conveying channel 1. The detection and screening component 2 includes a cylinder 201. An n-shaped pusher block 202 is fixed to the output shaft on one side of the cylinder 201 through a flange. A high-definition camera 203 is fixed through the top of the n-shaped pusher block 202 through a mounting bracket.

[0023] One end of the conveying channel 1 is equipped with a servo motor 7 via a mounting bracket. One end of the conveying channel 1 is rotatably connected to a first transmission roller 4 via a bearing. The other end of the conveying channel 1 is rotatably connected to a second transmission roller 5 via a bearing. A conveyor belt 6 is sleeved on the outside of the second transmission roller 5. An LED light box 3 is fixed to the inside of the conveying channel 1 between the first transmission roller 4 and the second transmission roller 5 via bolts.

[0024] In use, the servo motor 7 drives the conveyor belt 6 to rotate and transport the eggs. The LED light box 3 performs optical inspection on the eggs during the transport process. The cylinder 201 pushes the n-shaped pusher block 202 to move and push out the eggs that fail the optical inspection on the conveyor belt 6.

[0025] For example, such as Figure 3 As shown, the present invention also includes a support frame 204 fixedly sleeved on the outside of the cylinder 201, and the support frame 204 is fixed to one side of the conveying channel 1 by bolts.

[0026] In use, the support frame 204 is used to support the cylinder 201.

[0027] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, the present invention also includes a reserved groove 11 at both ends of the top of the conveying channel 1, and the bottom ends of the n-shaped pusher block 202 are located inside the reserved groove 11.

[0028] When in use, the reserved slot 11 facilitates the insertion and movement of the n-shaped pusher block 202.

[0029] For example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, this utility model also includes a servo motor 7 whose output shaft is fixedly connected to one end of the first transmission roller 4 via a connecting sleeve.

[0030] In use, the servo motor 7 operates to drive the first transmission roller 4 to rotate.

[0031] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, the present invention also includes large through holes 9 equidistantly through the surface of the conveyor belt 6, and small through holes 10 equidistantly through the surface of the conveyor belt 6 outside the large through holes 9.

[0032] When in use, the large through hole 9 makes it easy to insert the bottom of the egg, so that the rotation of the conveyor belt 6 can drive one end of the egg. The small through hole 10 allows light to pass through.

[0033] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the present invention also includes a discharge ladder 8 fixed by bolts on the side of the conveying channel 1 away from the cylinder 201.

[0034] When in use, the discharge ladder 8 is set up to guide the eggs.

[0035] When using this utility model, personnel install the device on the egg production line and connect the device to intelligent control equipment such as a computer using a power cord;

[0036] Eggs fall from the conveyor equipment onto the conveyor belt 6. The large through hole 9 is used to position the eggs. The servo motor 7 is controlled by intelligent control equipment such as a computer. The servo motor 7 drives the first transmission roller 4 to rotate. The rotation of the first transmission roller 4 drives the conveyor belt 6 outside the second transmission roller 5 to rotate, thus conveying the eggs.

[0037] The LED light box 3 is turned on to emit bright light. The light passes through the large through hole 9 and multiple small through holes 10 to illuminate the eggs on the conveyor belt 6. The quality of the eggs is evaluated by the light's penetration and reflection characteristics. The high-definition camera 203 can capture the egg inspection process and transmit the image to a computer for display. If the eggs are found to be substandard, the computer intelligent control device will stop the servo motor 7 and control the cylinder 201 to work. The cylinder 201 pushes the n-shaped pusher block 202 to move, pushing the substandard eggs on the conveyor belt 6 onto the discharge ladder 8 for removal.
