Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model is an intelligent egg handling system, belonging to the field of egg handling. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous growth in poultry egg circulation, egg merchants' demands for operational efficiency, cost control, and flexible scalability are increasing daily. Existing automated production lines for poultry eggs are mainly divided into several modules, specifically a transmission module for transporting eggs, a module for sealing eggs, and a module for weighing, coding, and monitoring eggs. This modular division of labor results in high investment and fixed functions for existing automated production lines, making it difficult to meet the changing production capacity needs of small and medium-sized egg merchants. On the other hand, purely manual operations suffer from low efficiency, high labor costs, and difficulties in multi-station coordination. Especially during peak operating periods, multiple people often need to operate multiple stages simultaneously, and the lack of seamless integration between modules further increases time and management costs. Therefore, there is a need for an egg processing system with a simple structure, universal modules, and user-configurable features to lower the investment threshold and improve overall operational efficiency.

The machine and drive shaft are fixed at the bottom of the stacking mechanism box, the lifting cylinder is fixed at the top of the lifting cylinder, the output top of the lifting cylinder is fixed with a secondary support plate, the top of the secondary support plate is fixed with multiple fixed brackets, the fixed brackets are connected to the lifting conveyor belt with the roller shaft, the top of the secondary support plate is also fixed with a dual-shaft motor, the output ends of the dual shafts of the motor are equipped with drive shafts, the drive shafts are connected through to the roller shafts on the fixed brackets, the lifting conveyor belt and the conveyor roller are arranged alternately, and the guide rod is fixed between the secondary fixed plate and the secondary support plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the pushing assembly includes a pushing plate, on which a rotating cylinder is fixedly mounted. One end of the threaded rod is a T-shaped end, and the rotating cylinder has a T-shaped rotating groove.

A unique traceability code is printed on the surface of each egg carton during the coding process. This traceability code is linked to weighing data, date, temperature and humidity, and farm information through a database. Finally, the egg cartons are transported to the unloading area by a secondary conveyor belt.

[0015] By manually driving the threaded rod, the inkjet printer on the extension plate is moved in conjunction with the push assembly, causing it to move towards the egg carton. Because the egg cartons used for packaging are of different sizes, the distance between the inkjet printer and the egg carton must be adjusted to effectively avoid the inkjet printer printing too far, which would make the printed content blurry, and to avoid the printing distance being too close, which would make the printed text too thick and blurry due to interference between the characters. Therefore, the printing distance of the inkjet printer must be strictly controlled during the spraying process to achieve a high-quality finished product. Attached Figure Description

Finally, the personnel carry out the subsequent unloading work.

[0023] See Figure 3-6The pushing assembly includes a pushing plate 16, on which a rotating cylinder 17 is fixed. One end of a threaded rod 14 is a T-shaped end. The rotating cylinder 17 has a T-shaped rotating groove 18, and the T-shaped end of the threaded rod 14 is located in the rotating groove 18 of the rotating cylinder 17. The other end of the threaded rod 14 is fixed with a manual turntable 19. A traction assembly is connected between the pushing plate 16 and the fixed plate 12. The traction assembly includes a sleeve 20 and a traction rod 10 inserted into the sleeve 20. The sleeve 20 has multiple traction grooves 9. The bottom end of the traction rod 10 has a traction block 8 located inside the traction groove 9. A secondary extension plate 7 is also fixed on the pushing plate 16. A laser rangefinder 6 is fixed on the secondary extension plate 7. The length of the secondary extension plate 7 is equal to the length of the extension plate 15. The manual turntable 19 is rotated. The drive screw 14, in conjunction with the push assembly, drives the inkjet printer and laser rangefinder 6 on the extension plate 15 to move, causing the inkjet printer to move toward the egg carton. Because the egg cartons used for packaging are of different sizes, the distance between the inkjet printer and the egg carton is adjusted to effectively control the printing distance of the inkjet printer. The laser rangefinder is an instrument that uses laser to accurately measure the distance to a target. When working, it emits a very thin laser beam toward the target, and the laser beam reflected by the target is received by a photoelectric element. The time from emission to reception of the laser beam is measured by a timer, thereby calculating the distance from the observer to the target. The laser emission end and the inkjet printing end of the inkjet printer are on the same vertical horizontal plane, and the printing distance is controlled between 5 cm and 7 cm. The laser rangefinder is an existing device.

[0024] During operation, system parameters are set via touch panel 306. Workers place unsealed egg cartons on conveyor 1, which automatically transports them to sealing machine 2 for automatic sealing. The cartons then enter dynamic weighing machine 3 for dynamic weighing and are coded by inkjet printer. During the coding process, a unique traceability code is printed on the surface of the egg cartons. This traceability code is linked to weighing data, date, temperature and humidity, farm information, etc., through a database. Finally, the egg cartons are transported to the unloading area by auxiliary conveyor 4. All information recorded by the weighing and coding module can be encrypted and uploaded to a remote data center via IoT gateway. It can also be integrated with enterprise ERP or supply chain management systems to automatically generate inbound and outbound documents, facilitating remote viewing, traceability, and management by downstream customers and managers. The monitoring module uses a pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) monitor (308) and a fisheye monitor (309) mounted on the telescopic fixed bracket (307) to monitor the operation process in real time and upload video data to the data center. Manually driving the threaded rod (14) in conjunction with the push assembly moves the inkjet printer on the extension plate (15) towards the egg carton. Because the egg cartons used in the same batch for packaging are of inconsistent sizes, the distance between the inkjet printer and the egg carton is adjusted to effectively prevent the inkjet printer from printing too far, resulting in blurry printing, and to prevent the printing from printing too close, resulting in overly dark and blurred text due to interference between characters. Therefore, the inkjet printer's printing distance must be strictly controlled during spraying to achieve high-quality finished products. Users can add or remove functional modules according to operational needs to achieve flexible combinations of conveying, sealing, dynamic weighing, and inkjet printing processes. The conveyor belt module, sealing machine 2, weighing and coding module, monitoring module, laser rangefinder, and power fixture are all standard equipment used in existing automated production and will not be described in detail here.

[0025] Although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
