Corn pollen collecting device

Abstract

The invention discloses a corn pollen collecting device. The corn pollen collecting device comprises a pollen collector, wherein the pollen collector is funnel-shaped; a connecting part is arranged atthe lower end of the pollen collector; the connecting part is connected with a container through threads; a handheld rod connecting part is arranged on an outer wall of the upper end of the pollen collector; a handheld rod is in threaded connection with the interior of the handheld rod connecting part; a V-shaped opening is formed in a side wall of the pollen collector; a rectangular hole is formed in the lower end of the V-shaped opening; a power device is arranged in the rectangular hole; a micro vibration motor and a battery are arranged in the power device; a power switch is arranged on the outer surface of the power device; and the power switch is electrically connected with the battery and the motor. During operation, the length of the handheld rod can be adjusted to be matched withthe V-shaped opening, excessive bending and breaking of tassels are effectively avoided, pollen collection is facilitated, and meanwhile, the labor intensity is reduced. All corn tassels are placed in the collector, so that pollen drifting is avoided. By using the vibration motor, the pollen collection time is effectively shortened, and the collection efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of agricultural production equipment, and in particular relates to a corn pollen collection device. Background technique [0002] In maize parental seed propagation and hybrid maize seed production, artificial assisted pollination is an important measure to increase the yield of maize seed production. Artificial assisted pollination is a method in which the pollen produced by the anthers on the corn tassel florets is collected and then transferred to the corn ear style to fertilize it. [0003] In the large-scale production of corn parent breeding and hybrid corn seeds, natural pollination is usually used. This pollination method meets better at the flowering stage, saves labor, labor, and low cost, and has better results without the influence of bad weather. During the maize flowering period, in case of bad weather such as continuous rain, drought, or improper sowing schedule of the male and female parents...

[0003] In the large-scale production of corn parent breeding and hybrid corn seeds, natural pollination is usually used. This pollination method meets better at the flowering stage, saves labor, labor, and low cost, and has better results without the influence of bad weather. During the maize flowering period, in case of bad weather such as continuous rain, drought, or improper sowing dates of the male and female parents of hybrid corn seed production, it is very easy to cause the flowering period to fail, which will affect the yield of corn seed production or even fail to harvest. In this case, artificial Auxiliary pollination to improve compensation and reduce losses

[0004] Corn pollen collection is an important part of corn assisted pollination. It is usually carried out when the corn tassels are in bloom. In production, pots are generally used to collect corn pollen. When collecting pollen, the operator needs to lift the pot with one hand and bend the corn tassels with the other. Lower it into the pot and shake it to make the pollen fall into the pot, then pour the pollen collected in the pot into the container and send it to the corn field that needs auxiliary pollination for artificial pollination; the corn flowering and pollination period often has a high temperature, and in high temperature and dry conditions The lower corn pollen will lose its vitality about 1 hour after the anthers burst and disperse, and the survival time is relatively short. It must be collected before 8 to 11 in the morning, and each time the pollen is collected and pollinated, it is required to be completed within 30 minutes; traditional collection The method of collecting corn pollen is labor-intensive, time-consuming, pollen is easy to drift, and tassels are easy to break, and the collection efficiency is not high.
