It should be noted that the features of the embodiments of the present invention may be combined with each other without conflict.

A color sorter (not shown) is provided that is configured to detect and grade the quality of discrete materials, wherein the materials may include foodstuffs, pigment chemicals, and the like. For example, the material may be: tea, fruit; for another example, the material may also be: regenerated plastic sheets, plastic particles, corns, various beans, various rice, ores, hot peppers, pepper, garlic rice, melon seeds, raisins, seeds, traditional Chinese medicines, dried shrimps, clove fish, glass, metals, homochromy rods and other malignant impurities and special materials.

Wherein, the color sorter can comprise a conveying mechanism, a rejecting device 11 and a conveying hopper 10. The conveying mechanism is configured to convey the materials towards the removing device 11, and in the case of conveying to the removing device 11, the removing device 11 can sort the materials so that the materials are divided into multiple types, the multiple types of materials can be conveyed to the conveying hopper 10 according to different paths, and the conveying hopper 10 can guide the materials to specified positions respectively through the different paths of the materials; wherein part of the material is transported to a waste storage area and part of the material is transported to a next-stage sorting system again for further sorting. Of course, the conveying hopper 10 can also be regarded as a material conveying transfer device for transferring the material sorted by the rejecting device 11 to a sorting system of the next stage for precise sorting of the material.

In prior art, after removing devices 11 sorts the material, the material gets into to carrying in the hopper 10, because the material can receive the interference of first layer rejection system air current tail gas usually when carrying hopper 10, lead to the material to deviate from original whereabouts orbit in the in-process that falls down, can appear jumping the material when the output material, inhomogeneous phenomenons such as, the sorting system that has improved next grade is to the discernment degree of difficulty of material and the accuracy that reduces the rejection system, and then it is not good to cause the sorting effect, so that need feed back to select separately again many times, feed back many times in addition leads to the material breakage rate high, the use experience of customer to equipment is felt has been reduced.

In order to improve above-mentioned technical problem, in other words, in order to improve the not good problem of sorting effect that leads to because phenomenon such as material skip and transport are inhomogeneous among the prior art, provide loose hopper and look selection machine in this application embodiment.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the conveying hopper 10 is configured to be mounted on a frame of a color sorter to provide a bearing effect to the conveying hopper 10 through the frame, so as to ensure that the conveying hopper 10 can stably convey materials. The conveying hopper 10 includes a hopper body 100 and an output chute 200. The bucket body 100 includes a main body 110, a diverter plate 120, and a damping structure 130. The main body 110 is mounted to the frame. The main body 110 is provided with a feed inlet 111 and a discharge outlet 112, and the material can enter the main body 110 from the feed inlet 111 and is guided out from the discharge outlet 112. The dividing plate 120 is connected to the main body 110 in an inclined manner, and is configured to separate materials having different falling trajectories entering from the feed opening 111. It should be noted that the rejecting device 11 is also arranged at the feed port 111, and when the conveying mechanism conveys the material to the feed port 111, the material falls to the feed port 111 along the parabolic path; through the sorting action of the removing device 11, part of the materials fall to the outer side of the splitter plate 120, and the splitter plate 120 guides the materials out; the other part of the material falls into the feed opening 111, and enters the interior of the main body 110 from the feed opening 111. The buffering structure 130 is connected to the diversion plate 120 and located inside the main body 110, and the buffering structure 130 is configured to receive the material entering the inside of the main body 110; the material entering the main body 110 is received by the buffering structure 130, so that the buffering effect can be provided for the material.
