Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of rice washing machine optimization modules, specifically a smart optimization module for the water-to-rice ratio of a rice washing machine. Background Technology

[0002] A rice washing machine is a kitchen appliance specifically designed for automatically washing rice or other grains, such as millet and glutinous rice. It aims to replace manual rice washing, simplify the preparation process before cooking rice or porridge, and reduce nutrient loss and water waste.

[0003] As illustrated in announcement number CN208551523U, a two-stage rice washing machine delivers rice and water to a rice-water separator via a rice feed pipe. The rice and water are separated in the separator, and the separated rice enters the second-stage washing machine for further cleaning. This invention allows for rice-water separation after the rice has been washed by the paddles, followed by a second-stage washing of the rice. This reduces labor intensity, labor costs, and saves time, while ensuring the cleanliness of the rice without losing its nutritional components.

[0004] The rice washing machine described above directly pours water into the container containing the rice to wash it. This method cannot intelligently adjust the water volume according to the amount of rice, which easily leads to water waste. Other existing rice washing machines use infrared sensors to detect the height of the rice in the container and then inject the corresponding amount of water to save water. However, when the rice enters the container, it tends to accumulate in one place, with the rice at the bottom of the rice bag being higher than in other places. Therefore, the infrared sensor will produce errors during detection, thus affecting the amount of water injected. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an intelligent optimization module for the water-to-rice ratio of a rice washing machine, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that existing rice washing machines are difficult to intelligently optimize the water-to-rice ratio.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a smart optimization module for the water-to-rice ratio of a rice washing machine, comprising a base plate and a disc, wherein a placement frame is provided on the top of the base plate; a detection mechanism is provided on the top of the placement frame; a controller is installed on one side of the placement frame; a motor a is installed on one side of the top of the base plate; a reciprocating motion mechanism is provided at the output end of the motor a; a rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the bottom of the placement frame via a rotating shaft; a through groove matching the rotating shaft is opened in the middle of the base plate; and multiple sets of protrusions are fixedly connected to both sides of the inner wall of the through groove, and the protrusions are arc-shaped; a motor b is fixedly installed on one side of the placement frame, and a material turning mechanism is provided at the output end of the motor b.

[0007] Furthermore, the detection mechanism includes an infrared sensor mounted on one side of the top of the base plate, and a vision camera mounted on the other side of the top of the base plate, and the output terminals of both the infrared sensor and the vision camera are electrically connected to the controller.

[0008] Furthermore, the reciprocating motion mechanism includes a disc fixedly connected to the output end of motor a, a connecting rod a rotatably connected to one side of the top of the disc via a rotating shaft, a connecting rod b rotatably connected to one end of the connecting rod a via a rotating shaft, a slider fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod b, and the outer side of the slider slidably connected to the placement frame, and a vertical plate fixedly attached to the top of the base plate, with the interior of the vertical plate slidably connected to the connecting rod b.

[0009] Furthermore, two sets of support blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the placement frame, and the bottom of the support blocks are connected to the base plate by ball bearings.

[0010] Furthermore, the material turning mechanism includes a connecting shaft fixedly connected to the output end of motor b, a material turning plate fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting shaft by a bracket, and the two ends of the connecting shaft being rotatably connected to the placement frame by bearings.

[0011] Furthermore, the flipping plate has an arc shape, and multiple sets of hollow grooves are opened inside the flipping plate, and the multiple sets of hollow grooves are distributed at equal intervals.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The intelligent optimization module for the water-rice ratio of this rice washing machine can detect the amount of rice and impurity content of the rice poured into the rice washing machine through the detection mechanism, and calculate the amount of water to be injected, thereby completing the intelligent optimization of the water-rice ratio. At the same time, it can drive the reciprocating motion mechanism to drive the placement frame to swing, thereby mixing the rice in the placement frame evenly and preventing the uneven top of the rice from causing deviations in the detection data. The turning mechanism can make the detection of the impurity content of the rice in the placement frame more accurate.

[0013] 1. The detection mechanism can detect the height and impurity content of the rice in the placement box, thereby estimating the amount of rice and providing basic data for determining the amount of water. By starting motor b, the reciprocating motion mechanism can be driven to move, causing the placement box to move back and forth in one direction. At the same time, under the action of the rotating shaft at the bottom of the placement box, the placement box will swing back and forth in another direction. At this time, the rice at the top of the placement box will be evenly distributed, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the infrared sensor.

[0014] 2. By starting motor b, the connecting shaft and the turning plate are rotated, so that the rice at the bottom of the placement box is evenly turned to the top. The visual camera can then perform a more comprehensive inspection of the rice in the placement box, thereby accurately determining the amount of water injected into the rice washing machine.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-4 The present invention provides the following technical solution: a smart optimization module for the water-to-rice ratio of a rice washing machine, comprising a base plate 1 and a disc 7, wherein a placement frame 2 is provided on the top of the base plate 1; a detection mechanism is provided on the top of the placement frame 2; a controller 5 is installed on one side of the placement frame 2; a motor a6 is installed on one side of the top of the base plate 1; a reciprocating motion mechanism is provided at the output end of the motor a6; a rotating shaft 10 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the placement frame 2 via a rotating shaft; a through groove matching the rotating shaft 10 is provided in the middle of the base plate 1; and multiple sets of protrusions 11 are fixedly connected to both sides of the inner wall of the through groove, and the protrusions 11 are arc-shaped.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-4 The detection mechanism includes an infrared sensor 3 installed on one side of the top of the base plate 1, and a vision camera 4 installed on the other side of the top of the base plate 1. The output terminals of both the infrared sensor 3 and the vision camera 4 are electrically connected to the controller 5.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-5 The reciprocating motion mechanism includes a disc 7 fixedly connected to the output end of a motor a6. A connecting rod a8 is rotatably connected to one side of the top of the disc 7 via a rotating shaft. A connecting rod b9 is rotatably connected to one end of the connecting rod a8 via a rotating shaft. A slider is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod b9, and the outer side of the slider is slidably connected to the placement frame 2. A vertical plate is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1, and the inside of the vertical plate is slidably connected to the connecting rod b9. Two sets of support blocks 12 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the placement frame 2. The bottom of the support blocks 12 is rotatably connected to the base plate 1 via ball bearings.

[0026] Please see Figures 1-5 The intelligent water-rice ratio optimization module of this rice washing machine reduces water consumption during operation. First, rice is fed into the placement frame 2. Then, an infrared sensor 3 at the top detects the height of the rice in the placement frame 2. The detection data is input to the controller 5 to estimate the amount of rice, providing basic data for determining the amount of water. Simultaneously, a vision camera 4 photographs the rice in the placement frame 2 to identify the content of impurities, further refining the water volume required for washing. To prevent rice from piling up in one place when poured into the placement frame 2, which could cause significant errors in the height calculation by the infrared sensor 3, a motor b13 is activated to rotate a disc 7. The disc 7 then rotates a connecting rod a8 on one side of the top, which in turn pulls a connecting rod on one end. When rod b9 moves, it pulls the placement frame 2 to move as well, causing the placement frame 2 to move back and forth. The support blocks 12 on both sides of the bottom of the placement frame 2 provide support, and the ball bearings at the bottom reduce friction. The rotating shaft 10 at the center of the bottom of the placement frame 2 moves in the through groove in the middle of the base plate 1 and alternately contacts the protrusions 11 on both sides of the through groove, causing the rotating shaft 10 to swing back and forth. This causes the placement frame 2 to swing back and forth in another direction while following the reciprocating movement of the connecting rod b9. Under the swaying in both directions, the top of the rice in the placement frame 2 becomes flat, which can improve the detection accuracy of the infrared sensor 3 and achieve the purpose of optimizing the water-rice ratio. In this way, the water-rice ratio in the rice washing machine can be optimized through the above operation.

[0027] Example 2:

[0028] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6Based on Embodiment 1, a turning mechanism is also disclosed to turn the rice in the rice washing machine so that the rice at the bottom can also be captured by the vision camera 4. Its specific structure is as follows: a motor b13 is fixedly installed on one side of the placement frame 2, and the output end of the motor b13 is provided with a turning mechanism; the turning mechanism includes a connecting shaft 14 fixedly connected to the output end of the motor b13, and a turning plate 15 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting shaft 14 through a bracket. The two ends of the connecting shaft 14 are rotatably connected to the placement frame 2 through bearings; the turning plate 15 has an arc shape, and multiple sets of hollow grooves are opened inside the turning plate 15, and the multiple sets of hollow grooves are evenly distributed.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 The intelligent water-rice ratio optimization module of this rice washing machine, while detecting impurities in the rice through the vision camera 4, also detects the rice at the bottom of the placement frame 2. It activates the motor b13 to rotate the connecting shaft 14, which in turn rotates the flipping plate 15, thus flipping the rice from the bottom of the placement frame 2 to the top. Because the flipping plate 15 has multiple sets of perforated grooves, the resistance to rotation within the rice is reduced. Furthermore, since the perforated grooves are equidistantly spaced in the flipping plate 15, the rice at the bottom of the placement frame 2 is evenly flipped to the top. This allows for a more comprehensive detection of the rice in the placement frame 2 through the vision camera 4. This operation facilitates a more comprehensive detection of the impurity content in the rice in the placement frame 2, thereby accurately determining the water injection amount of the rice washing machine.
