Detailed Implementation

[0015] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0016] Please refer to the following: Figures 1-4,in, Figure 1 A top view schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of the flower sorting equipment provided by this utility model; Figure 2 This is a side view of the collection rack in this utility model; Figure 3 This is a top sectional view of the middle cylinder of this utility model; Figure 4 for Figure 1 The diagram shows an enlarged view of part A.

[0017] The flower sorting equipment includes: a base 1; a threaded rod 7 rotatably mounted on the top of the base 1; a slider 9 threadedly fitted onto the threaded rod 7; a collection rack 11 detachably mounted on the top of the slider 9 for sorting and receiving flowers; a second motor 18 fixed on the base 1 for driving the threaded rod 7 to rotate, the output shaft of the second motor 18 being connected to the threaded rod 7 via a coupling; and a sorting structure mounted on the base 1 to assist in sorting flowers. By configuring the threaded rod 7, slider 9, collection rack 11, and second motor 18, the equipment achieves automated screening and sorting of flowers. The second motor 18 drives the threaded rod 7 to rotate, causing the threaded slider 9 to move smoothly along a preset path, allowing the collection rack 11 to be positioned below the sorting structure, thus achieving automatic reception and sorting of flowers. This avoids the inconvenience of manual screening and removal, improving sorting efficiency and accuracy. Simultaneously, the collection rack 11 is detachably mounted on the top of the slider 9, facilitating quick replacement of collection containers of different sizes according to flower type or sorting requirements, enhancing the flexibility and applicability of the equipment.

[0018] The sorting structure includes a mounting frame 2 fixed to the top of the base 1, a guide frame 3 fixed to the top of the mounting frame 2, a limiting rod 4 fixed inside the guide frame 3 to support the flowers, a top plate 5 fixed to the top of the mounting frame 2, and a camera 6 fixed to the top plate 5 and the mounting frame 2 respectively for capturing flower information. By setting up the mounting frame 2, guide frame 3, limiting rod 4, top plate 5 and camera 6, the structure can acquire flower information and support flower sorting. The mounting frame 2 and guide frame 3 form a stable support frame, the limiting rod 4 effectively stabilizes the position of the flowers, ensuring that they maintain a stable posture during the sorting process, facilitating all-round shooting by the camera 6, and the top plate 5 provides a mounting base for the upper camera 6. Together with the camera 6 on the mounting frame 2, it achieves multi-angle, high-precision imaging of the flowers, enabling accurate capture of information from all parts of the flowers. This allows the sorting equipment to automatically determine the flower grade based on comprehensive and clear image data, improving the accuracy and efficiency of sorting and reducing the need for manual intervention.

[0019] The collection rack 11 is equipped with a separator rod for separating flowers. The separator rod has a side plate for stabilizing the flowers. The angle between the mounting frame 2 and the base 1 is not less than 30°. A connecting frame 10 is installed at the bottom of the collection rack 11. A clamping plate is installed on the connecting frame 10 and locked outside the slider 9. The clamping plate has a limiting structure for stabilizing the clamping plate. By setting the separator rod and the side plate, the effect of classifying and storing flowers stably is achieved. The separator rod divides the inside of the collection rack 11 into multiple independent areas, which facilitates sorting flowers by grade. The side plate prevents flowers from tipping over or mixing during movement, ensuring orderly sorting. The mounting frame 2 and the base 1 have an angle of not less than 30°, which allows the flowers to slide naturally to the collection rack 11 by gravity after sorting, reducing the need for mechanical pushing and improving the smoothness of sorting. The design of the connecting frame 10 and the clamping plate allows the collection rack 11 to be quickly locked onto the slider 9. The limiting structure further enhances the stability of the connection and prevents the collection rack 11 from shaking or falling off during sorting.

[0020] The limiting structure includes a cylinder 13 fixed to the clamping plate, a spring 14 fixed inside the cylinder 13, and a locking block 15 mounted on the spring 14. The slider 9 is provided with a limiting port for accommodating the locking block 15. By setting the cylinder 13, spring 14, locking block 15, and limiting port on the slider 9, the connection between the clamping plate and the slider 9 is stabilized. When the clamping plate is locked outside the slider 9, the elastic force of the spring 14 pushes the locking block 15 into the limiting port, forming a reliable mechanical lock. This effectively prevents the collection rack 11 from disengaging from the slider 9 due to vibration or movement during the sorting process, improving the stability and safety of the equipment operation. The elastic characteristics of the spring 14 allow the locking block 15 to automatically retract when subjected to external force, facilitating quick disassembly or adjustment of the position of the collection rack 11, enhancing the convenience of operation, and making the installation and disassembly of the collection rack 11 more efficient and reliable, reducing manual debugging time.

[0021] The limiting rods 4 are arranged in groups, and each of the two limiting rods 4 has a limiting roller 19 rotatably mounted on one side close to each other to stabilize the flowers and capture information about each flower individually. A first motor 8 is fixed to the top of the limiting rod 4, and the output shaft of the first motor 8 is connected to the flange of the limiting roller 19. By setting up the group of limiting rods 4, limiting rollers 19 and first motor 8, the effect of stabilizing the flowers and achieving accurate shooting one by one is achieved. The group of limiting rods 4 cooperate to form a flower conveying channel. The limiting rollers 19 on both sides rotate under the drive of the first motor 8. The flexible contact between the roller body and the flower effectively fixes the position of the flower to prevent it from shaking or shifting, and reduces damage to the flower through rolling friction. The design of the first motor 8 connected to the flange of the limiting roller 19 ensures the stability of power transmission, so that the flower can pass through the shooting area at a uniform speed and in a stable state. This makes it easy for the camera 6 to obtain clear and complete image information one by one, improves the accuracy of flower positioning and imaging quality during the sorting process, and provides reliable data support for subsequent grading judgment.

[0022] A guide rod 16 is fixed to the locking block 15, which moves through the spring 14 and extends to the outside of the cylinder 13. The guide rod 16 is used to limit the extension and retraction path of the spring 14. A pinch piece 17 is fixed to the guide rod 16 to provide an operating grip point. The pinch piece 17 is provided with anti-slip texture. By setting the guide rod 16, pinch piece 17 and anti-slip texture, the extension and retraction of the locking block 15 is controlled and the ease of operation is improved. The guide rod 16 moves through the spring 14 and extends to the outside of the cylinder 13, effectively limiting the extension and retraction path of the spring 14 and preventing it from jamming due to force deviation. This ensures that the locking block 15 can smoothly and easily insert into or disengage from the limiting port on the slider 9, improving the reliability of the limiting structure. The pinch piece 17 provides the operator with a clear grip point, making it easy to manually press or pull the guide rod 16 to quickly unlock or lock the collection rack 11. The anti-slip texture further enhances the friction when gripping and prevents slippage during operation.

[0023] Both the second motor 18 and the first motor 8 are fitted with protective shells to protect the motors. The protective shells are equipped with heat dissipation meshes to assist in heat dissipation of the motors. The bottom of the connecting frame 10 is equipped with casters 12 to support the connecting frame 10. By setting up protective shells and heat dissipation meshes on the second motor 18 and the first motor 8, the motors are protected and their service life is extended. The protective shells can effectively block dust and mechanical collisions from damaging the motors, ensuring stable operation of the motors in complex working environments. The heat dissipation meshes increase the air circulation area, accelerate the dissipation of heat generated by the motors, and prevent performance degradation or damage due to overheating, thereby improving the reliability and durability of the motors. The casters 12 at the bottom of the connecting frame 10 allow the collecting frame 11 to flexibly adjust its position as the slider 9 moves, reducing frictional resistance with the base 1, which reduces equipment energy consumption and avoids wear caused by hard contact.

[0024] It is worth noting that the circuits, electronic components, and modules involved in this utility model are all existing technologies, which can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art, and need not be elaborated upon. The content protected by this utility model does not involve any improvement to the software and methods.

[0025] The working principle of the flower sorting equipment provided by this utility model is as follows: This solution also includes an electrical control cabinet, which is installed on the equipment. During use, each piece of electrical equipment can be started and operated separately through the electrical control cabinet. The power connection method of each piece of electrical equipment is an existing mature technology and is well known to those in the field, so it will not be described in detail here. In use, the flowers to be sorted are placed in the flower conveying channel formed by the group of limiting rods 4. The limiting rollers 19 on the limiting rods 4 that are close to each other on one side are connected to the first motor 8 (NEMA). 8) Driven to rotate, stabilize the position of the flowers so that the information of each flower can be photographed one by one, while reducing damage to the flowers. The mounting frame 2 and the guide frame 3 form a stable support frame. The top plate 5 provides the mounting base for the upper camera 6. Together with the camera 6 on the mounting frame 2, it performs multi-angle, high-precision imaging of the flowers in the conveying channel to obtain information of each part of the flowers so as to automatically determine the flower level. The second motor 18 (NEMA23) is started through the electrical control cabinet. Its output shaft drives the threaded rod 7 to rotate through the coupling. The slider 9, which is threaded outside the threaded rod 7, moves smoothly along the preset path, so that the collection rack 11 is positioned below the sorting structure. Since the angle between the mounting frame 2 and the base 1 is not less than 30°, the sorted flowers slide naturally into the collection rack 11 by gravity. The isolation rod divides the inside of the collection rack 11 into multiple independent areas, which facilitates the sorting of flowers by level. The side plate prevents the flowers from tipping over or mixing during the movement.

[0026] Compared with related technologies, the flower sorting equipment provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects: This utility model provides a flower sorting device, which is equipped with a threaded rod 7, a slider 9, a collection rack 11 and a second motor 18. The second motor 18 drives the threaded rod 7 to rotate, which drives the slider 9 to move smoothly along a preset path, so that the collection rack 11 can be positioned below the sorting structure, realizing the automatic reception and classification of flowers, avoiding the inconvenience of manual screening and removal, and improving sorting efficiency and accuracy.
