Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of agricultural machinery, and in particular relates to a potato seedling cutting, harvesting and collecting integrated machine. Background Art

[0002] Potatoes are one of the important economic crops in my country. Since potatoes grow under the soil and have tubers, they are usually harvested manually. However, the manual harvesting method is inefficient and it is difficult to improve the harvesting efficiency.

[0003] With the development of science and technology, a variety of potato harvesting devices have appeared on the market in recent years. Compared with manual harvesting, the use of potato harvesting devices to harvest potatoes has reduced the labor intensity of potato farmers to a certain extent and improved the efficiency of potato harvesting. However, the current potato harvesting devices still have some shortcomings:

[0004] 1. During the potato harvesting process, the potato harvesting device still piles the potatoes on the ground after shoveling up the soil and potatoes, and still needs to be picked up manually. The mechanical degree is low and manual picking is easy to miss;

[0005] 2. During the potato harvesting process, when the potato harvesting device scoops up the soil and potatoes and conveys the potatoes, a lot of soil will still adhere to the surface of the potatoes. One reason is that when the potatoes are conveyed, the potatoes remain stationary relative to the part of the conveyor belt they are in contact with, making it difficult to clean the soil adhering to the surface of the potatoes, and thus making the soil content in the collected potatoes high, which is not conducive to the desludging of the potatoes. Another reason is that the soil separation is not thorough, and the separation efficiency is low under heavy soil, which increases the workload and cost;

[0006] 3. During the potato harvesting process, the seedlings are removed before the potato mechanical harvesting. The seedling removal and harvesting are done separately, which requires two operations, increasing the operation time and cost and reducing the overall harvesting efficiency.

[0007] 4. During the potato harvesting process, for different potato varieties or different planting methods, the digging depth is too shallow, and the deeply buried potatoes cannot be completely dug out, which may cause potatoes to be missed or damaged, resulting in yield losses; if the digging depth is too deep, it is easy to cause excessive digging and collision of potatoes, resulting in damage and scratches on the potato body, affecting the quality.

[0036] As described above, the potato vine cutting, harvesting and collecting machine of the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0037] 1. Through the cooperation of the walking collection device, the seedling cutting device, the digging device and the conveying and separation device, the continuous and automated process of potato harvesting is realized, which can improve the harvesting efficiency and quality of potato harvesting, thereby solving the problem of low mechanical degree of manual picking;

[0038] 2. The potato body-soil attachment boundary and the damaged part boundary are photographed and identified in real time through the mobile identification module, and the results are fed back to the control module. After analysis, the control module controls the movement of the mobile identification module, and controls the movement of the grabbing power module in the vertical direction through the extension and retraction of the first telescopic component. The grabbing power module controls multiple fan-shaped claws to open or close at the same time to grab potatoes. When the potatoes are grabbed and the soil is not separated, the telescopic end of the first telescopic rod contracts, and the hemispherical claw moves into the arc groove. At this time, the ultrasonic transducer works to drive the die head to work on the surface of the potato body in the hemispherical claw The soil on the surface of the potato is crushed, and the soil separated from the surface of the potato flows out through the soil leakage hole. Not only can the soil be crushed in a short time, but the crushing effect can also be accurately controlled by adjusting the ultrasonic parameters, thereby solving the problems of incomplete separation of soil and low separation efficiency under heavy soil; the first worm is driven to rotate by the grasping power part, which drives the first turbine meshing with the first worm to rotate, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the hemispherical clamp. During the grasping process, the shape of the hemispherical clamp can better fit the shape of the potato, increase the contact area and evenly apply force, thereby improving the stability and reliability of grasping;

[0039] 3. The rotating rod is driven to rotate by the rotating rod power assembly and the plurality of rotating rods are arranged at a first spacing and are driven by a chain and a rotating sprocket, which can provide a smooth and continuous conveying power, and is convenient for the preliminary separation of potatoes and soil. The soil can leak from the spacing between the rotating rods, and the potatoes will not be bumped or stuck during the conveying process. At the same time, it also solves the problem that when the potatoes are conveyed, the potatoes remain stationary relative to the part of the conveyor belt they contact, making it difficult to clean the soil adhering to the surface of the potatoes; the rotation of the rotating rod drives the two rollers to rotate, and the rotation of the rollers stretches the first elastic member upward or resets it downward, and the fixed arm moves upward or downward. At this time, the roller rolls in the roller groove, and the beating rod beats the potatoes with soil, which can effectively remove the soil attached to the surface of the potatoes, so that the soil leaks from the gaps between the rotating rods, thereby improving the separation effect; at the same time, by hingedly connecting one end of the fixed arm and moving the other end up and down, it can be achieved that the beating force at the lower end is large and the beating force at the upper end is small, which can effectively prevent the potatoes from rolling back to the ground;

[0040] 4. Through the cooperation of the fixed cutting knife and the dynamic cutting mechanism, as the walking collection device moves forward, the cut potato vines are squeezed into the U-shaped shell from the opening of the U-shaped shell, so that the potato vines are cut first and then dug, thereby improving the overall efficiency and quality of potato harvesting. The potato vines are cut and transported out of the U-shaped shell into the soil through the cutting and conveying mechanism, which can provide conditions for continuous cutting of vines, and the cut potato vines can also be quickly decomposed in the soil, which can increase the organic matter content of the soil, improve the soil structure, improve the soil fertility, and improve the soil ecology;

[0041] 5. The first gear is driven to rotate by the angle power member to drive the arc rack to rotate, so that the angle shaft rotates to drive multiple digging shovels to rotate, so as to adjust the digging shovel's entry angle into the soil, so as to cut into the soil more smoothly, reduce digging resistance, and thus improve the speed and efficiency of digging. As the walking collection device moves forward, the soil crushing drive mechanism drives the spiral blades on the soil crushing rod to crush large pieces of soil, and efficiently drains the soil through the soil leakage groove on the conveying plate, thereby reducing the accumulation of soil on the conveying plate; according to different varieties or planting methods, the first support is slid up and down in the vertical slide groove of the L-shaped support seat through the extension of the second telescopic component, so that the first support arm drives the front end of the conveying plate to move up and down, thereby realizing the adjustment of different digging depths, so as to avoid damaging or leaking potatoes during digging, and improve the yield;

[0042] 6. The lifting frame is driven to rotate by rotating the driving assembly, and the potato receiving trough on the lifting frame lifts the potatoes from the bottom upward. In the process of lifting the potatoes upward, the potatoes in the potato receiving trough fall onto the potato receiving plate under the action of their own gravity, and then are transported to the potato collecting box through the potato receiving plate with a low front and high rear inclined setting, thereby solving the problem of manual picking up and easy omission.

In the process of lifting the potatoes upward, under the action of their own gravity, the potatoes in the potato receiving trough 3212 fall onto the potato receiving plate 322, and then are transported to the potato collecting box 323 through the potato receiving plate 322 which is tilted and arranged low in front and high in the back, thereby solving the problem of manual picking up and easy omission; when the hemispherical clamp 245 grabs damaged potatoes, the damaged potatoes are placed in the damaged potato trough 324 at this time.

[0081] Working principle: When in use, according to different varieties or planting methods, the first support 182 is slid up and down in the vertical slide groove 18341 of the L-shaped support seat 1834 through the extension and contraction of the second telescopic component 181, so that the first support arm 1831 drives the front end of the conveying plate 12 to move up and down, thereby realizing the adjustment of different excavation depths to avoid damaging or leaking potatoes during excavation. The first gear 171 is driven to rotate by the angle power member 173 to drive the arc rack 172 to rotate. The arc rack 172 can limit the adjustment angle. The angle shaft 16 rotates to drive multiple excavating shovels 11 to rotate, so as to adjust the entry angle of the excavating shovel 11 into the soil, thereby cutting into the soil more smoothly and reducing excavation resistance. The second worm 422 is driven to rotate and drive the rotating column 424 to rotate. The sliding column 4211 moves in the spiral groove 4241 to compress the second elastic member 426, so that the movable cutting knife 421 and the fixed cutting knife 411 cooperate with each other to cut the potato vines, so that the potato vines are cut first and then dug. The spring resets the sliding column 4211 backward in the linear slide groove to prepare for the next cutting. At the same time, the second worm 422 is respectively engaged with the second turbine 423 and the third turbine 434 to drive the shredding shaft 431 and the conveying rod 433 to rotate respectively. The shredding shaft 431 rotates to drive the shredding knife group 432 to cut and crush the potato vines. When the conveying rod 433 rotates, the spiral sheet conveys the shredded potato vines out of the U-shaped housing 41 into the soil.

[0082] As the walking collection device 3 moves forward, the soil crushing driving mechanism 15 drives the spiral blades on the soil crushing rod 14 to crush large pieces of soil, and efficiently leaks soil through the soil leaking groove 121 on the conveying plate 12, thereby reducing the accumulation of soil on the conveying plate 12; the rotating rod power assembly 234 drives the rotating rod 231 to rotate, and the multiple rotating rods 231 are arranged at a first spacing, and are driven by the chain 233 and the rotating sprocket 232, which can provide a smooth and continuous conveying power, which is convenient for the initial separation of potatoes and soil, and the soil can leak from the spacing between the rotating rods 231; the rotation of the rotating rod 231 drives the two rollers 254 to rotate at the same time, and the rotation of the roller 254 stretches the first elastic member 255 upward or resets it downward, and the fixed arm 251 moves upward or downward, at this time, the roller 253 rolls in the roller 253 groove, and the slapping rod 252 slaps the potatoes with soil, which can effectively remove the soil attached to the surface of the potatoes, so that the soil is The soil leaks from the gap between the rotating rods 231, thereby improving the separation effect; at the same time, by hingedly connecting one end of the fixed arm 251 and moving the other end up and down, it is possible to achieve a large beating force at the lower end and a small beating force at the upper end, which can effectively prevent the potatoes from rolling back to the ground; when the potatoes are transported to the connection between the first support arm 21 and the second support arm 22, the recognition component 2418 takes a picture of the potatoes in real time and identifies the potato body-soil attachment boundary and the damaged part boundary, and feeds the results back to the control module, and drives the rotation of the first screw rod 2412 and the second screw rod 2413 respectively through the first drive component 2419 and the second drive component 24110, which can independently and accurately adjust the moving distance and speed in the mutually perpendicular directions of front and back and left and right to meet the different grasping requirements of the hemispherical clamp 245, and the cooperation of the first screw rod 2412 and the slide rail 2414 ensures the stability and accuracy of the moving process, and reduces errors and jitters;

[0083] By extending and retracting the first telescopic component 248, the grabbing power module 247 is controlled to move in the vertical direction. The grabbing power module 247 controls the multiple fan-shaped clamps 2452 to open or close at the same time to grab potatoes. When the potatoes are grabbed and the soil is not separated, the telescopic end of the first telescopic rod is contracted, and the hemispherical clamp 245 moves into the arc groove 2441. At this time, the ultrasonic transducer 243 drives the die head 244 to work to crush the soil on the surface of the potato body in the hemispherical clamp 245. The soil separated from the potato surface flows out through the soil leakage hole 2451, which can not only crush the soil in a short time, but also can be crushed by the ultrasonic parameters. Adjustment can be performed to precisely control the crushing effect, thereby solving the problems of incomplete separation of potato and soil and low separation efficiency under heavy soil. When the hemispherical clamp 245 grabs damaged potatoes, the damaged potatoes are placed in the damaged potato trough 324. The lifting frame 321 is driven to rotate by rotating the driving assembly 325, and the potato receiving trough 3212 on the lifting frame 321 lifts the potatoes from the bottom upward. In the process of the potatoes being lifted upward, the potatoes in the potato receiving trough 3212 fall onto the potato receiving plate 322 under the action of their own gravity, and are then transported to the potato collecting box 323 through the potato receiving plate 322 which is tilted low in the front and high in the back, and the excavation work is continued until the task is completed.

[0084] In summary, the present invention realizes the continuous and automated process of potato harvesting through the coordinated cooperation of the walking collection device 3, the seedling cutting device 4, the digging device 1 and the conveying and separation device 2, which can improve the harvesting efficiency and quality of potato harvesting, thereby solving the problem of low mechanical degree of manual picking up; the potato body-soil attachment boundary and the damaged part boundary are photographed and identified in real time through the mobile identification module 241, and the results are fed back to the control module. After analysis, the control module controls the movement of the mobile identification module 241, and controls the movement of the grasping power module 247 in the vertical direction through the extension and retraction of the first telescopic component 248. The grasping power module 247 controls multiple fan-shaped claws 2452 is opened or closed at the same time to grab potatoes. When the potatoes grabbed are potatoes that have not been separated from the soil, the telescopic end of the first telescopic rod contracts, and the hemispherical clamp 245 moves into the arc groove 2441. At this time, the ultrasonic transducer 243 works to drive the die head 244 to work to crush the soil on the surface of the potato body in the hemispherical clamp 245, and the soil separated from the surface of the potato flows out through the soil leakage hole 2451. Not only can the soil be crushed in a short time, but the crushing effect can also be accurately controlled by adjusting the ultrasonic parameters, thereby solving the problem of incomplete soil separation and low separation efficiency under heavy soil; the first worm 2472 is driven to rotate by the grabbing power piece 2473, driving the first worm 2472 to rotate with the first worm The first turbine 2453 of the meshing transmission 2472 rotates, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the hemispherical clamp 245. During the grasping process, the shape of the hemispherical clamp 245 can better fit the shape of the potato, increase the contact area and evenly apply force, thereby improving the stability and reliability of grasping; the rotating rod 231 is driven to rotate by the rotating rod power component 234, and multiple rotating rods 231 are arranged at a first spacing, and are driven by the chain 233 and the rotating sprocket 232, which can provide a smooth and continuous conveying power, facilitate the initial separation of potatoes and soil, and the soil can leak from the spacing between the rotating rods 231. The potatoes will not be bumped or stuck during the conveying process, and it also solves the problem that the potatoes are relatively close to the potatoes when they are conveyed. The part on the conveyor belt that is in contact with the potatoes remains stationary, making it difficult to clean the dirt on the surface of the potatoes. The two rollers 254 are driven to rotate by the rotation of the rotating rod 231. The rotation of the roller 254 stretches the first elastic member 255 upward or resets it downward, and the fixed arm 251 moves upward or downward. At this time, the roller 253 rolls in the groove of the roller 253, and the beating rod 252 beats the potatoes with dirt, which can effectively remove the dirt attached to the surface of the potatoes and make the dirt leak from the gap between the rotating rods 231, thereby improving the separation effect. At the same time, by hingedly connecting one end of the fixed arm 251 and moving the other end up and down, it can be achieved that the beating force at the lower end is large and the beating force at the upper end is small, which can effectively prevent the potatoes from rolling back to the ground.Through the cooperation of the fixed cutting blade 411 and the dynamic cutting mechanism 42, as the walking and collecting device 3 moves forward, the cut potato vines are squeezed into the U-shaped shell 41 from the opening of the U-shaped shell 41, so that the potatoes are cut first and then dug, thereby improving the overall efficiency and quality of potato harvesting, and the potato vines are cut and conveyed out of the U-shaped shell 41 into the soil by the cutting and conveying mechanism 43, which can not only provide the conditions for continuous cutting, but also the chopped potato vines can be quickly decomposed in the soil, which can increase the organic matter content of the soil, improve the soil structure, improve the soil fertility, and improve the soil ecology; the first gear 171 is driven to rotate by the angle power member 173 to drive the arc rack 172 to rotate, and the arc rack 172 can limit the adjustment angle, and the angle shaft 16 rotates to drive multiple digging shovels 11 to rotate, so as to adjust the digging shovel 11 into the soil, so as to cut into the soil more smoothly, reduce the digging resistance, and thus improve the digging speed and efficiency. The driving mechanism 15 drives the spiral blades on the soil-breaking rod 14 to break up the large pieces of soil, and efficiently leaks soil through the soil leakage groove 121 on the conveying plate 12, thereby reducing the accumulation of soil on the conveying plate 12; according to different varieties or planting methods, the first support 182 slides up and down in the vertical slide groove 18341 of the L-shaped support seat 1834 through the extension and contraction of the second telescopic component 181, so that the first support arm 1831 drives the front end of the conveying plate 12 to move up and down, thereby realizing the adjustment of different excavation depths to avoid The potato is not damaged or missed during the digging process, and the yield is increased; the lifting frame 321 is driven to rotate by the rotating drive component 325, and the potato receiving groove 3212 on the lifting frame 321 lifts the potatoes from the bottom upward. In the process of the potatoes being lifted upward, under the action of their own gravity, the potatoes in the potato receiving groove 3212 fall onto the potato receiving plate 322, and then are transported to the potato collecting box 323 through the potato receiving plate 322 that is tilted and arranged at the front lower and the back higher, thereby solving the problem of manual picking and easy missing. Therefore, the present invention effectively overcomes various shortcomings in the prior art and has a high industrial utilization value. ;
