Specifically, the top of the supporting plate 421 is provided with a first limiting frame and a second limiting frame which are arranged at intervals, the first limiting frame and the second limiting frame are respectively provided with a first side wall and a second side wall which are oppositely arranged along the conveying direction of the conveying belt 314, and a third side wall which is connected with the first side wall and the second side wall, and the first side wall, the second side wall and the third side wall are arranged to define the chute 422 together. The material of scraping wings 41 is rubber, and is the fillet setting along the front end of propelling movement direction to avoid damaging the lobster.

In this embodiment, the lobster feed dividing assembly 4 further includes a feed dividing plate 43 and a feed dividing driving structure 44, the feed dividing plate 43 is rotatably disposed on the frame 1 and is disposed opposite to the push plate 41, the feed dividing plate 43 and the push plate 41 are respectively disposed on two sides of the conveyor belt 314, the feed dividing plate 43 extends along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 314, and when the second conveying baffle 313 is disposed on two sides of the conveyor belt 314, a position avoiding notch is disposed at a position of the second conveying baffle 313 corresponding to the push plate 41; the distributing driving structure 44 is disposed on the frame 1 and is in driving connection with the distributing plate 43, and the distributing driving structure 44 is configured to drive the distributing plate 43 to rotate, so that the distributing plate 43 can be inclined along the length direction, and lobsters on the distributing plate 43 can fall from two ends of the distributing plate 43 respectively to fall into different receiving boxes 5.

The material distributing driving structure 44 includes two magnetic blocks 441 and two electromagnetic relays 442, and the two magnetic blocks 441 are respectively disposed at two ends of the material distributing plate 43 along the length direction; the two electromagnetic relays 442 are disposed on the frame 1 and are disposed in one-to-one correspondence with the two magnetic attraction blocks 441, the two electromagnetic relays 442 can be electrically connected to the controller to control one of the electromagnetic relays 442 to be energized according to the detection data of the color detection component 45, so that the material distribution plate 43 is rotated and tilted, and the connection structure between the controller and the electromagnetic relays 442 and the principle that the controller controls the electromagnetic relays 442 to operate belong to the prior art, which are not explained herein.

Specifically, the lobster sorting device 100 further comprises a plurality of storage boxes 5, and the plurality of storage boxes 5 are respectively arranged corresponding to the two ends of the material distributing plate 43. For example, taking red and cyan lobsters as an example, when the lobsters pushed down from the pusher plate 41 onto the material separating plate 43 are detected as red by the color detecting member 45, a first end of the material separating plate 43 in the longitudinal direction is rotated downward, and a second end of the material separating plate 43 in the longitudinal direction is rotated upward, so that the red lobsters are dropped into the red lobster receiving box 5 from the first end, and if the color detecting member 45 detects cyan, the rotating direction of the material separating plate 43 is reversed, and the cyan lobsters are dropped into the cyan lobster receiving box 5 from the second end.

Further, in order to enable the material distributing plate 43 to be quickly reset after rotating, the material distributing driving structure 44 further includes two elastic resetting pieces 443, the two elastic resetting pieces 443 are respectively connected to the corresponding magnetic attraction block 441 and the corresponding electromagnetic relay 442, and after the material distributing plate 43 rotates and distributes the material, the material can be quickly reset to distribute the next lobster.

Obviously, the arrangement of the lobster separating assembly 4 is not limited to the above-mentioned one, and one separating plate 43 may be disposed on both sides of each conveyor belt 314 to separate the lobster from both sides of each conveyor belt 314 when the pushing plate 41 can push the lobster back and forth, and the specific arrangement may be adaptively adjusted according to the arrangement of the separating plates 43, and will not be described in detail herein.

Of course, in another embodiment, the color detection component 45 may be disposed above the conveyor belt 314, for example, when the lobster passing through the color detection component 45 is red, the pushing material driving structure 42 is driven by the controller to operate to drive the pushing plate 41 to push the red lobster from the conveyor belt 314 to the red lobster receiving box 5, and in case of cyan lobster, the lobster is continuously conveyed along the conveyor belt 314 to be conveyed to the conveying end of the conveyor belt 314 to fall into the cyan lobster receiving box 5.

In an embodiment, in order to ensure that the lobsters can accurately fall into the corresponding accommodating boxes 5, the material distributing plate 43 includes a bottom plate 431 in an arc shape, and a first side plate 432 and a second side plate 433 which are disposed on two sides of the bottom plate 431 in the width direction, the first side plate 432 is disposed near the conveyor belt 314, and the height of the first side plate 432 is not higher than the height of the conveying surface of the conveyor belt 314, so that the material pushing plate 41 can push the lobsters onto the material distributing plate 43. The material separating plate 43 is generally white to facilitate the collection and processing of lobster colors by the color detecting part 45.

The specific working principle of the lobster sorting device 100 is as follows: pouring lobsters into the open end of the feeding hopper 21, dropping the lobsters from the discharge opening of the feeding hopper 21 onto the initial roller set so that the lobsters are conveyed continuously in a flat state, dropping small lobsters from the first roller set 321 onto the corresponding centrifugal turntable 311 when the lobsters are conveyed to pass through the first roller set 321, dropping middle lobsters from the second roller set 322 onto the corresponding centrifugal turntable 311 when the lobsters are conveyed to pass through the second roller set 322, dropping the remaining large lobsters onto the centrifugal turntable 311 corresponding to the third roller set 323 when the lobsters are conveyed to pass through the third roller set 323, forming a single row of lobsters from the centrifugal turners 311 to be conveyed onto the conveyor belts 314, pushing the lobsters onto the material separating plates 43 corresponding to the conveyor belts 314 through the material pushing plates 41 corresponding to the conveyor belts 314, through the detection data of the color detecting part 45, the controller controls the corresponding electromagnetic relay 442 to operate to incline the material distributing plate 43 to slide the lobsters into the receiving box 5 to complete the primary classification. According to the invention, the lobsters can be classified into large, medium and small lobsters firstly, then the large, medium and small lobsters are respectively scanned with two different colors for secondary classification, and 6-grade classification is carried out, so that the sorting precision is high, and the sorting effect is good.
