However, one or more embodiments may be practiced by those skilled in the art without these specific details.

[0022] Example 1: like Figures 1-4 As shown, the simplified blueberry grading device includes a frame 1. A drive component is located at the left end of the interior of the frame 1. A linkage component is located on the top left side of the frame 1. A set of sliding components is located to the right of the linkage component at the top of the frame 1. The set of sliding components is symmetrically arranged front and back. A screening box 2 is mounted on the set of sliding components. The screening box 2 is hinged to the linkage component. A material hopper 3 is located at the lower end of the screening box 2. A cleaning component is located directly below the set of sliding components inside the frame 1.

[0023] In the above technical solution, by setting a driving component, the driving component can be activated by the linkage component. With the assistance of the sliding component, the screening box 2 can be moved back and forth. Blueberries of different sizes can fall through the screening holes 19 at the bottom of different grading chambers 18, pass through the discharge channel 21, and finally fall into different washing tanks 24 on the cleaning frame 23 in the water tank 22, preventing the blueberries from falling and breaking in the collection device. Then, the first cylinder 26 inhales and exhales, driving the lifting and lowering and the second cylinder 28 to move up and down, ultimately driving the washing frame to move up and down, cleaning the blueberries in the washing tank 24. This utility model combines the grading and screening of blueberries with washing, making the grading of blueberries more convenient and efficient, while preventing blueberries from falling directly into the collection device and breaking.

[0024] In this invention, a support frame 4 is provided at the rear end of the frame 1, and a feed hopper 5 is provided on the support frame 4. A flexible hose 6 is provided at the lower end of the feed hopper 5. By providing the flexible hose 6, the feed hopper 5 is connected to the feed hole 20 located at the leftmost grading chamber 18 inside the screening box 2, so that the fixed feed hopper 5 is not affected by the left and right movement of the screening box 2.

[0025] In this invention, the drive assembly includes a motor 7, and a first toothed pulley 8 is provided on the output shaft of the motor 7. The linkage assembly includes a drive crankshaft 9, and bearing seats 10 are sleeved at both ends of the drive crankshaft 9. The bearing seats 10 are fixedly mounted on the frame 1. A second toothed pulley 11 is provided at the end of the drive crankshaft 9 near the first toothed pulley 8. The first toothed pulley 8 and the second toothed pulley 11 are connected by a toothed belt 12. A linkage rod 13 is rotatably mounted on the drive crankshaft 9.

[0026] In the above technical solution, by setting up a drive component and a linkage component, and by setting up a control box (the control box is installed on the left side of the front end of the frame 1) to start the motor 7, the rotation of the motor 7 can drive the drive crankshaft 9 to rotate, and then use the linkage rod 13 to drive the screening box 2 to move left and right with the assistance of the sliding component to perform grading and screening.

[0027] In this invention, the sliding assembly includes a slide rail 14, which is fixedly connected to the frame 1, and a slider 15 is slidably mounted on the slide rail 14. By setting the slide rail 14 and the slider 15, the screening box 2 is mounted on the slider 15, allowing the screening box 2 to slide between the frame 1, thus providing a prerequisite for grading and screening.

[0028] In this utility model, the screening box 2 is installed on the top of the slider 15, and a hinge seat 16 is installed on the left end face of the screening box 2. The hinge seat 16 is hinged to the end away from the linkage rod 13 and the drive crankshaft 9. The internal space of the screening box 2 is divided into multiple grading chambers 18 by the partition plate 17. Screening holes 19 are opened on the bottom wall of each of the multiple grading chambers 18. A feed hole 20 is opened on the rear wall of the screening box 2. The feed hole 20 is fixedly connected and communicates with the hose 6.

[0029] In the above technical solution, there is a gap between the partition plate 17 and the bottom wall of the screening box 2 that allows blueberries to pass through. The diameter of the screening holes 19 on the bottom wall of each grading chamber 18 is different. The diameter of the feeding hole 20 in the grading chamber 18 near the feeding hole 20 is the largest, and the screening holes 19 in different grading chambers 18 from left to right become smaller.

[0030] In this invention, the dividing hopper 3 is installed on the end face of the slider 15 near the end of the slider 15. The top of the dividing hopper 3 abuts against the bottom of the screening box 2. The internal space of the dividing hopper 3 is provided with multiple discharge channels 21, and the grading chamber 18 corresponds to each discharge channel 21. The feeding channel is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, with the smaller dimension being smaller than the opening of the cleaning groove 24 on the cleaning frame inside the water tank 22.

[0031] Example 2: In this invention, the cleaning assembly includes a water tank 22, which is installed at the lower end of the distribution hopper 3. A cleaning frame 23 is placed inside the water tank 22, and the internal space of the cleaning frame 23 is provided with multiple cleaning grooves 24, each corresponding to a multiple discharge channel 21. End plates 25 are provided on both sides of the cleaning grooves 24 near their top ends. A set of first cylinders 26 is provided at the lower ends of both sides of the water tank 22. The output ends of the set of first cylinders 26 are connected to a lifting plate 27. A set of second cylinders 28 is provided at the top of the lifting plate 27, and the output shafts of the set of second cylinders 28 are connected to the lower end face of the end plate 25. Multiple discharge ports 29 are provided on the front end face of the cleaning frame, each extending into the cleaning groove 24. The lower wall of the cleaning groove 24 is inclined, and one end of the discharge port 29 on the lower wall of the cleaning groove 24 is lower than the end furthest from the discharge port 29.

[0032] In the above technical solution, by setting up a water tank 22 and a washing frame inside the water tank 22, when the water level in the water tank 22 is higher than the bottom of the washing frame, the blueberries falling from the discharge channel 21 will fall directly into the water, which can effectively prevent the risk of the blueberries being broken. By setting up a first cylinder 26 and a second cylinder 28, the first cylinder 26 can drive the washing frame to rise and fall inside the water tank 22 to wash the blueberries in the washing tank 24. When the first cylinder 26 and the second cylinder 28 are simultaneously intake, and the output shaft extends, the discharge port 29 is higher than the side wall of the water tank 22. Under the guidance of the inclined lower wall of the washing tank 24, the washed blueberries will flow out from the discharge port 29 for easy collection.
