Coal and gangue identification device and coal and gangue sorting system
A coal and gangue identification device is disclosed. The device includes a rotary supporting frame, a water injection unit, a weighing unit, a liquid level detection device and a processing module. The rotary supporting frame is provided with a loading unit used to load a mineral aggregate. The rotary supporting frame is used to drive the loading unit to rotate on a horizontal plane. In the rotating process of the rotary supporting frame, the loading unit cyclically passes through a water injection region, a material adding region, a volume measurement region and an unloading region which are sequentially disposed on a rotation trajectory of the rotary supporting frame. The water injection unit is used to inject water to the loading unit of the water injection region.
TRASH SORTING AND RECYCLING METHOD, TRASH SORTING DEVICE, AND TRASH SORTING AND RECYCLING SYSTEM
A trash sorting and recycling method, a trash sorting device and a trash sorting and recycling system are provided. The trash sorting and recycling method includes: acquiring a detection image of trash to be sorted; processing the detection image with a deep learning neural network to judge whether or not the trash to be sorted belongs to recyclable trash; if yes, sending a first control signal, to control to deliver the trash to be sorted into a recycling region; if no, sending a second control signal, to control to deliver the trash to be sorted into a non-recycling region.
