A hand-held coffee fruit picker

Abstract

The invention relates to a hand-held coffee fruit picking machine, belonging to the field of agricultural harvesting machinery, comprising a collection box, a handle, a motor, a crank vibration mechanism, and a clamping device. A handle is arranged at the bottom of the collection box, and the motor is fixedly installed on the bottom of the collection box On the side wall, the crank vibration mechanism is connected with the power output end of the motor, and the clamping device is installed on the crank vibration mechanism. The invention drives the crank vibration mechanism to work through the motor, and the crank vibration mechanism drives the clamping device to vibrate. The clamping device for clamping the branch separates the coffee fruit from the branch through the vibration principle. This vibration picking method will not break the branch and the coffee fruit node will not It will be destroyed; because the structure of the invention is simple, the body is small and light, it is easy to carry, and can be flexibly operated in the coffee garden; it is especially suitable for walking and working in the hilly and mountainous areas of Yunnan, and it is easy to carry out hand-held operation in a limited space to realize the picking of coffee cherries .

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of agricultural harvesting machinery, in particular to a hand-held coffee fruit picker. Background technique [0002] The trunk of the coffee tree is strong and has many branches. The fruits are mainly distributed on the branches, and there are many nodes on the branches. Each node will grow as many as dozens of coffee cherries, as few as a few coffee cherries. The coffee cherry is a juicy berry, and the fruit does not ripen at the same time, and the growth of the fruit varies greatly at different altitudes. Coffee cherry belongs to climacteric fruit, and the fruit is not easy to store after ripening. During the picking season, the coffee harvest is basically picked by hand. It is necessary to manually pick up a single branch and select the ripe fruit for picking. Although mechanical equipment has been used to harvest coffee in foreign countries, due to the flat terrain of foreign coffee planting areas, such mechani...

Problems solved by technology

Although foreign countries have used mechanical equipment to harvest coffee, due to the flat terrain of foreign coffee planting areas, such mechanical equipment is basically large-scale mechanical harvesting equipment

[0003] my country's Yunnan Province is a plantation base for arabica coffee, but it is hilly and mountainous, with complex terrain, which makes it difficult to pick arabica coffee when it is ripe, and the large coffee harvesters harvested abroad are not suitable for the hilly and mountainous terrain of Yunnan Province, and cannot be used for labor.

At the same time, there is a shortage of labor force. Because the branches of coffee trees are slender and dense, each branch has 6-10 nodes, and each node is basically distributed with more than 20 coffee cherries. The work intensity of farmers picking is very high. Branches and fruit nodes cannot be destroyed during manual picking
