Detailed ways

Please refer to Figures 1 to 7, which illustrate the specific structure of the peeled orange sorting device 100 of the present invention, which includes a controller 1, an oblique conveying device 2, a fishing device 3, a pool screening device 4, and a size screening device. The device 5 and multiple recovery chambers 6, the oblique conveying device 2, the pool screening device 4 and the size screening device 5 are arranged in a linear assembly line in sequence. Such a linear arrangement can enable the oranges to have a movement trajectory in one direction. The trend of force in a general direction can cooperate with the work of subsequent devices. The oblique conveying device 2 can transport oranges to the middle of the pool sifting device 4. Since the oranges are located in the middle of the liquid when they are input, it can form a flow from the middle. The state of drifting to both sides prevents oranges from gathering at the edge of the pool 42, which facilitates the subsequent fishing work of the fishing device 3 and reduces interference between devices. It is understandable that the pool 42 in Figure 1 There is no liquid displayed in the pool. When in use, the pool 42 is filled with liquid. The pool screening device 4 includes a pool bracket 41, a pool 42, a drain plate lifting device (not shown) and a fishing device 3.

The drain plate lifting device is installed in the pool 42 and has a liftable drain plate 43. The drain plate 43 has a liquid supply on the top. The drain holes 431 are opened in the drain plate 43 at equal intervals. The drain plate lifting device is a lifting drive device. The drain plate 43 is lifted and lowered by the lifting drive device. The drain holes 431 can pass through the drain holes 431. The leakage reduces the resistance of the liquid to the drain plate 43, that is, when the drain plate 43 rises, the liquid passes through the drain hole 431 and flows down, and when the drain plate 43 descends, the liquid overflows from the drain hole 431, It will not block the effect of the liquid on the oranges and the bearing of the oranges by the drain plate 43. The drain plate 43 rises and falls relative to the pool support 41 and has a raised position and a lowered position. When the drain plate 43 is in the lowered position, the drain plate 43 is immersed in the In the liquid, due to the buoyancy characteristics of the peeled oranges, the peeled oranges are immersed in the liquid and the peeled oranges float on the liquid. It is understandable that since the outer skin of the peeled oranges has ventilation holes, it will resemble an air bag. Also store a certain amount of air, so that oranges with skin will float on the liquid, while oranges without skin will sink in the liquid. The focus of the present invention is to use the characteristics of oranges to set up a pool 42 to use the liquid to remove Separating peeled oranges and peeled oranges, the liquid can also wash the surface of unpeeled oranges to remove floating dust and root dirt from the oranges themselves. The fishing device 3 is installed on the pool 42 and catches the peeled oranges in a floating state to eliminate the peeled oranges. The drain plate 43 has an inclined surface, and the inclined surface has a slope ladder structure. When the drain plate 43 is in a raised position, the drain plate 43 is in a raised position. 43 One side edge 43a close to the edge of the pool 42 is higher than the edge 42a of the pool 42, so that the peeled oranges enter the size screening device 5 under the load and diagonal guide of the drain plate 43. Since the edge of the drain plate 43 rises 43a is higher than the edge 42a of the pool 42, so that a connection can be formed between the drain plate 43 and the edge of the pool 42, and the oranges will slide into the size screening device 5 under the action of gravity. The size screening device 5 is used to separate Peeled oranges of different sizes are separated and fed into the recovery chamber 6 of the corresponding size to achieve the collection function.

The output end of the conveyor belt transmission device 25 has a structure for transmission and is wound around the quadrilateral. The transmission member 251 on the movable frame 26 changes the transmission direction of the transmission member 251 through the deformation of the quadrilateral movable frame 26, so that the conveying direction of the left conveying mechanism 21 and the conveying direction of the right conveying mechanism 22 are both close to the dividing rod 23. Since The transmission member 251 is wound around the quadrilateral movable frame 26. When the quadrilateral movable frame 26 is rectangular, the transmission member 251 is transported forward.

Between the cross bars 262, the above-mentioned movable connection can be connected through an aligning ball bearing to realize the movable connection. The front conveying cross bar 261, the fixed vertical bar 265, the rear conveying cross bar 262 and the sliding vertical bar 263 jointly form a deformable With a quadrilateral structure, the transmission member 251 is wound between the front conveying crossbar 261 and the rear conveying crossbar 262 . It can be understood that when the sliding vertical rod 263 moves forward relative to the fixed vertical rod 265 driven by the sliding driving device 264 (the front and rear direction is shown by arrow A in Figure 4, the deformed state after movement is shown in Figure 5 (shown), the sliding vertical rod 263 drives the parallelogram structure to deform and causes the transmission member 251 wrapped around it to be arranged diagonally. The transmission member 251 can drive the orange to move to the right and toward the dividing rod in the middle. The state is as follows Figure 5,shown. When the sliding vertical rod 263 moves backward relative to the fixed vertical rod 265 driven by the sliding driving device 264, the sliding vertical rod 263 drives the parallelogram structure to deform and causes the transmission member 251 around which it is wound to be arranged diagonally, thereby transmitting Piece 251 can drive the orange closer to the left.

The frame 24 is also provided with a tensioning component 252. The tensioning component 252 is used to adjust the tension of the transmission member 251. Preferably, the tensioning component 252 is a tensioning wheel structure. The front rotating shaft 254 is built into the front conveying cross bar 261 to realize the connection between the front rotating shaft 254 and the front conveying cross bar 261. The rear rotating shaft 255 is built into the rear conveying cross bar 262 to realize the connection between the rear rotating shaft 255 and the rear conveying bar. The connection between crossbars 262.

Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5 , two sets of conveyor belt transmission devices 25 and quadrilateral movable frames 26 are provided, and the two conveyor belt transmission devices 25 and quadrilateral movable frames 26 are spaced apart along the left and right directions of the frame 24 . The two conveyor belt transmission devices 25 and the two quadrilateral movable frames 26 are separated by a dividing rod 23 located in the middle.

In this case, In the embodiment, the oranges on the left and the oranges on the right both move closer to the dividing rod 23 located in the middle. Better. The cross section of the dividing rod 23 is an inverted "T" shape, but is not limited to this.

When the orange needs to move closer to the right side, the sliding vertical rod 263 moves forward relative to the fixed vertical rod 265 driven by the sliding driving device 264. The sliding vertical rod 263 drives the parallelogram structure to deform and causes the transmission member around which it is wrapped. 251 is arranged diagonally, and the transmission member 251 can drive the oranges to move closer to the right side. When the oranges need to be closer to the left side, the sliding vertical rod 263 is driven by the sliding driving device 264 and moves backward relative to the fixed vertical rod 265. The sliding vertical rod 263 drives the parallelogram structure to deform and makes the conveyor belt wrapped around it to be arranged diagonally. The transmission member 251 can drive the oranges to move closer to the left, thus forming an adjustment position for subsequent precise position adjustment. In the embodiment, the oranges on both sides are moved closer to the middle.
