Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sorting technology, and in particular relates to a weighing fruit sugar content grading machine. Background Technology
[0002] A sugar content grading machine is a device specifically designed for measuring and automatically grading the sugar content (sugar content) of fruits or other agricultural products. It detects the internal sugar content of fruits using optical or physical methods and classifies them into different grades according to preset standards. It is widely used in fruit quality inspection and grading. After grading the sugar content of the fruits in the storage tank, they need to be placed onto the receiving platform using a clamping method. However, because the fruit skin is relatively thin, it is easy to damage the fruit during clamping. This paper proposes a grading machine that can effectively avoid damage to the fruit skin. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a weighing-type fruit sugar content grading machine, which solves the problem of fruit being easily damaged as mentioned in the background technology.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a weighing fruit sugar content grading machine, including flared tubes, a plurality of flared tubes symmetrically arranged above the machine frame, and each of the plurality of flared tubes having an opening on its upper surface, the plurality of flared tubes being rotatably mounted on their corresponding bases, the plurality of bases being vertically fixedly connected to a chain, a stop bar being vertically arranged above the inner ring of the chain, and the lower end of the stop bar being fixedly connected to the base, and the flared tubes being inclined toward the stop bar and pressing against the upper end of the stop bar.
[0005] Beneficial effects
[0006] This utility model provides a weighing-type fruit sugar content grading machine, which has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0007] 1. When the chain rotates at a constant speed, the fruit can fall evenly into the flared tube. Because the upper surface area of the flared tube is larger than the lower surface area, the fruit is effectively prevented from popping out after falling into the tube. Since the flared tube is initially tilted towards the abutment at a large angle, it effectively prevents the fruit from disrupting the tilt and causing the tube to tilt in the opposite direction, thus preventing the fruit from being prematurely discharged. As the weight of the fruit in the flared tube increases, the stability of the tube is further increased, allowing it to press firmly against the abutment. During this process, the chain rotates at a constant speed, allowing the flared tube loaded with fruit to gradually approach the frame. At this point, the user can rotate the flared tube towards the frame, causing it to gradually separate from the abutment. The end of the flared tube closest to the frame is tilted and above the frame, allowing the fruit inside to roll onto the frame. During this process, the user should stop the chain from rotating.

Detailed Implementation
[0013] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0014] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0015] Please see Figures 1-3This invention provides a weighing-type fruit sugar content grading machine, comprising a flared tube 201, a plurality of flared tubes 201 symmetrically arranged above a frame 101, and each of the flared tubes 201 having an opening on its upper surface. Each flared tube 201 is rotatably mounted on a corresponding base 202, and each base 202 is vertically fixedly connected to a chain 203. A stop bar 307 is vertically arranged above the inner ring of the chain 203, and the lower end of the stop bar 307 is fixedly connected to the base 202. The flared tubes 201 are inclined toward the stop bar 307 and abut against its upper end. The base 202 is located on the chain 203. To prevent chain 203 from jamming, the fruit should be placed on the same link. The initial tilt angle of the flared tube 201 is 15-20° to prevent the tilt from being disrupted after fruit falls into it. During operation, workers should monitor the amount of fruit in the flared tube 201 to prevent it from holding too much fruit and causing it to tilt backward. This equipment is suitable for fruits of similar size; avoid using fruits of significantly different sizes. After the fruit is removed from the flared tube 201, the user should manually push the flared tube 201 back to its initial position. During this process, check whether there is any fruit residue in the flared tube 201. If there is any fruit residue, remove it promptly.
[0016] In the above embodiment, when the chain 203 rotates at a constant speed, the fruit can fall evenly into the flared tube 201. Since the upper surface area of the flared tube 201 is larger than the lower surface area, the fruit is effectively prevented from popping out after falling into it. Furthermore, because the flared tube 201 is initially inclined towards the stop rod 307 at a large angle, it effectively prevents the fruit from disrupting its inclination after falling in, thus avoiding the flared tube 201 tilting in the opposite direction and causing the fruit to exit prematurely. Simultaneously, as the weight of the fruit inside the flared tube 201 increases, it can... This further increases the stability of the flared tube 201, allowing it to press firmly against the abutment rod 307. During this process, the chain 203 rotates at a constant speed, thus allowing the flared tube 201 loaded with fruit to gradually approach the frame 301. At this point, the user can rotate the flared tube 201 toward the frame 301, meaning that the flared tube 201 gradually separates from the abutment rod 307. At this point, the end of the flared tube 201 closest to the frame 301 is tilted and positioned above the frame 301, causing the fruit inside to roll onto the frame 301. During this process, the user should stop the chain 203 from rotating.
[0017] Specifically, sprockets 204 are meshed on both sides of the chain 203, and the two sprockets 204 cooperate to tighten the chain 203. Both sprockets 204 are rotatably mounted on the frame 101.
[0018] Specifically, a motor 205 is provided at the center of any of the sprockets 204, and the output shaft of the motor 205 is fixedly connected to the center of the sprocket 204. The motor 205 is fixedly connected to the frame 101. Both the motor 205 and the motor B304 are integrated with a power supply for supplying power to them and a switch for controlling their start and stop.
[0019] The user can turn on the motor 205, which will cause the two sprockets 204 to work together to drive the sprockets 204 that are meshed with it to rotate at a constant speed.
[0020] Specifically, the frame 101 is provided with a drive assembly for rotating the flared tube 201. The drive assembly includes a connecting rod 206, which is located above the abutment rod 307. One end of the connecting rod 206 is fixedly connected to the flared tube 201, and the other end of the connecting rod 206 is inclined downward. An inclined push plate 207 is provided at the downward inclined end of the connecting rod 206.
[0021] Specifically, each of the push plates 207 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of its corresponding electric push rod 208, and each of the electric push rods 208 is horizontally fixedly connected to its corresponding mounting base 209, and each of the mounting bases 209 is horizontally fixedly connected to the frame 101; the electric push rod 208 should integrate a power supply for supplying power to it, and a switch for controlling its start and stop.
[0022] In the above embodiment, the electric push rod 208 can be activated to push the push plate 207 inclined on its output shaft, causing the push plate 207 to move toward the flared tube 201. During this process, the push plate 207 gradually contacts the connecting rod 206, thereby pushing the connecting rod 206 to gradually separate the flared tube 201 from the abutment rod 307. At this time, the flared tube 201 begins to rotate in the opposite direction to the abutment rod 307, thereby quickly expelling the fruit inside.
[0023] Specifically, the side of the frame 101 is provided with a receiving component for receiving fruit inside the flared tube 201. The receiving component includes a frame 301, which is located on the side of the frame 101. Multiple partitions 302 are fixedly connected to the frame 301 along its length. The partitions 302 are the same width as the frame 301. The electric push rod 208 is aligned with the midline of two adjacent partitions 302.
[0024] In the above embodiment, the electric push rod 208 is aligned with the midline of two adjacent partitions 302. Therefore, when the electric push rod 208 pushes the flared tube 201 directly opposite it, the fruit in the flared tube 201 can be directed to fall into the partition 302 opposite it, which makes it easier to place the fruit.
[0025] Specifically, sealing plates 303 are rotatably connected to the partitions 302 at both ends of the frame 301, and a motor B304 is provided at the rotatable connection between the sealing plate 303 and the partition 302. The output shaft of the motor B304 is fixedly connected to the sealing plate 303, and the motor B304 is fixedly connected to the partition 302.
[0026] In the above embodiment, before the electric push rod 208 begins to push the flared tube 201 directly opposite it, the user should start the motor B304 to rotate it to a tilted state with an tilt angle of 30-45°. Then, the motor B304 can be turned off. Since the motor B304 has a self-locking effect, it can limit the sealing plate 303, thus filling the gap between the flared tube 201 and the frame 301. This prevents the fruit from falling out along the gap between the flared tube 201 and the frame 301 when the fruit is being discharged from the flared tube 201.
[0027] Specifically, a belt conveyor 305 is provided on the side of the frame 101. One end of the belt conveyor 305 is located above the midline of the flared pipe 201, and a scraper conveyor 306 is provided at the other end of the belt conveyor 305. The upper end of the scraper conveyor 306 is located above the end of the belt conveyor 305. The fruit is conveyed upward through the scraper conveyor 306 into the belt conveyor 305 and is conveyed parallel on the belt conveyor 305. After being transported to the point where it leaves the belt conveyor 305, it falls into the flared pipe 201. The belt conveyor 305 can be a TD75 type belt conveyor, and the scraper conveyor 306 can be an MC type scraper conveyor.
[0028] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.
[0029] The term "fixed connection" as used in this application refers to a connection in which parts or components are fixed without any relative movement. This includes both detachable and non-detachable connections.
[0030] (1) Detachable connection: The components are fixed together using screws, splines, wedges, etc. This type of connection can be disassembled during maintenance without damaging the parts. However, the specifications of the connecting parts used must be correct (such as the length of the bolts, keys, wedges) and properly tightened.
[0031] (2) Non-removable connections: These mainly refer to welding, riveting, and tenon joints. Since disassembly requires forging, sawing, or oxyacetylene cutting for repair or replacement, the parts generally cannot be reused. At the same time, attention should be paid to process quality, technical inspection, and remedial measures (such as correction and polishing) during connection.
[0032] The sliding connection referred to in this application means that the component can slide along a linear trajectory, and the hinge referred to in this application means that the component can rotate along an axial constraint.
[0033] In some cases, the sliding connection and hinge referred to in this application may also be damped, enabling the component to maintain in the desired position.
[0034] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
