[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of agricultural machinery, in particular to a root crop harvesting device. Background technique
[0002] Rhizome crops refer to potatoes, sweet potatoes, yams, etc. It is quite difficult to harvest due to the deep burial, especially yams, because the rhizomes of yams grow upright in the soil and are about one meter long. Such as figure 1 , figure 2 As shown, the rhizome 200 of yam grows upright on the soil 100 , and the plant 201 of yam grows and extends on the surface of the soil 100 . When planting yams, they are generally planted in ridges, such as figure 1 , which can facilitate planting, harvesting and increase yield per mu.
[0003] Because the root crops of yam are long and penetrate deep into the soil, the traditional harvesting method is generally manual harvesting, which requires digging deep ditches in the soil and cannot break the rhizome of yam 200, resulting in huge labor costs. (this is ...
