Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of fruit pickers, and relates to a fruit picker based on self-adaptation flexible claws. The fruit picker is mainly composed of the flexible claws, a flexible claw installing base, connecting rods, a sliding block, a flexible claw base, an upper motor installing base, the motor, a lower motor installing base, a shaft sleeve base, a shaft sleeve, a handle base, a handle and a picking stretchable rod. When the handle is pressed or loosened, force is transmitted to the sliding block through a steel wire, and the sliding block slides up and down; a connecting base is connected to the sliding block through three connecting rods, the connecting rods convert linear motion of the sliding block into rotational motion of the connecting base, and then theclaws are tightened and loosened; when the flexible claws pick up fruits, fruits are extruded, acting force is generated by the outer surfaces of fruits for the inner surfaces of the flexible claws, due to existence of the fin ray effect, the flexible claws can be bent inwards, the inner walls of the flexible claws are attached to the outer surfaces of the fruits to the maximum extend, and the extrusion force is evenly dispersed to the whole outer surfaces of the fruits. The fruit picker is simple and portable and can ensure the pulp and peel quality.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fruit pickers and relates to a fruit picker based on self-adaptive flexible claws. Background technique

[0002] China is the world's largest fruit producer. With the continuous deepening of reform and opening up, China's fruit industry has developed rapidly, and large-scale fruit tree planting has become a reality. China has a vast territory and a wide range of climates, so it grows a variety of fruits. The growth characteristics of fruit trees determine that the fruit fields of some varieties are mostly concentrated in hills and hillsides where the terrain is not very gentle. For the above reasons, large-scale mechanization and automatic fruit picking cannot be effectively applied. However, manual picking often requires the use of ladders, picking devices and other equipment, resulting in low picking efficiency and the risk of people falling.

[0003] The main problems of existing pickers are as fol...

Embodiment Construction

[0025] The specific implementation manners of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and technical solutions.

[0026] like figure 1 As shown, a fruit picker based on adaptive flexible claws is mainly composed of flexible claws 1, flexible claw mounts 2, connecting rods 3, sliders, flexible claw bases 5, motor upper mounts 6, motors 7, and lower motors. Mounting seat 8, axle sleeve seat 9, axle sleeve 14, handle seat 15, handle 16 and picking expansion rod 17 are formed;

[0027] It specifically includes three flexible claws 1, each of which is provided with a connecting seat under each claw, and the connecting seat of one of the claws is connected to the upper surface of the flexible claw mounting seat 2; there are three pairs of six flexible claw mounting seats 2 for The protrusions of the connection seat are fixedly installed and evenly distributed at 120 degrees to each other. They are fixed to the connection se...
