[0026] The present invention provides a fungus picking machine, comprising a frame 1 and a fungus picking device 2 installed on the frame 1.

[0027] The ear-picking device 2 is used to pick the fungus on the mushroom stick, and comprises an ear-picking tube 21 and a driving mechanism 22 for driving the ear-picking tube 21 to rotate; the upper and lower openings of the ear-picking tube 21 are respectively formed into a feed port and a discharge port, and a plurality of adjustment grooves 210 are provided on the tube wall of the ear-picking tube 21, and the adjustment grooves 210 are arranged along the axial direction of the ear-picking tube 21, and a plurality of fixing plates 23 are fixedly connected on both sides of the groove of the adjustment groove 210, and the fixing plates 23 are provided with strip holes 230 along the radial direction of the ear-picking tube 21, and a reinforcing plate 24 is provided at the connection between the fixing plate 23 and the ear-picking tube 21, and each adjustment groove 210 is provided with a plurality of fixing plates 23, and each fixing plate 23 is provided with a plurality of fixing plates 230 ... An adjusting plate 25 is arranged inside, one end of which is fixed with bolts to the strip hole 230 of the fixing plate 23, and the other end extends into the ear picking tube 21 to be connected with the scraper 26 and is fixed at the connection point by two pressing plates. The scraper 26 is arranged in an array with equal intervals around the inner circumference of the ear picking tube 21. The adjusting plate 25 can adjust the height in the adjusting groove 210 and adjust the distance of extending into the ear picking tube 21 in the area of ​​the strip hole 230 of the fixing plate 23. In this way, the ear picking area of ​​the scraper 26 can be adjusted to adapt to different mushroom stick sizes and the growth conditions of the wood ear, so as to achieve a better picking effect.

[0028] The scraper 26 is preferably made of a silicone sheet, and a notch 260 is provided on the end surface in contact with the mushroom stick, the notch 260 is close to the upper and lower ends of the scraper 26, and a guide portion 261 is provided at the upper end of the opening of the notch 260 away from the scraping direction, and the guide portion 261 is tilted downward; since the agaricus scraped off will adhere to the scraper 26 due to centrifugal force during the high-speed rotation of the ear-picking tube 21, affecting the normal discharge, and as the number of attached agaricus increases, the scraper 26 is easily deformed, which affects the rotation speed of the ear-picking tube 21 and the scraping effect, and the notch 260 on the scraper 26 can guide the attached agaric, and the downwardly tilted guide portion 261 has a guiding effect on the guided agaric, ensuring that the agaric moves toward the downward discharge port, thereby improving the discharge efficiency.

[0029] A mounting box 27 is provided outside the ear-picking tube 21 of the frame 1, and the mounting box 27 is fixed on the frame 1. The top and bottom of the mounting box 27 are provided with holes 270 for making way for the ear-picking tube 21. A clamping frame 28 is fixed on the top of the mounting box 27. The inner circle size between the clamping frames 28 is slightly smaller than or slightly larger than the inner circle size between the scrapers 26, which is convenient for fixing the mushroom sticks. The clamping frame 28 includes a connecting rod 281 and a guide rod 282 extending into the ear-picking tube 21. The connecting rod 281 is provided with a strip hole 230 and is bolted to the top of the mounting box 27 through the strip hole 230, which is convenient for adjusting the inner circle size of the clamping frame 28 according to the size of the mushroom stick. The end of the guide rod 282 and the connecting end with the connecting rod 281 are provided with a chamfered structure. The top and bottom of the mounting box 27 are pivotally connected to a guide wheel 29, and the guide wheel 29 is arranged around the contact ear-picking tube 21.

[0031] Combination Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of a feeding device of the present invention, Figure 6 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the fungus picking machine of the present invention.

[0032] In order to realize automatic feeding, the wood ear picking machine also includes a feeding device 3, which is arranged at the feeding end of the wood ear picking device 2. The feeding device 3 includes a base 31 installed on the frame 1, four rotating shafts 32 pivoted on the base 31, a feeding roller 33 installed on the rotating shaft 32 and a rotating motor 34 for driving the rotating shaft 32 to rotate.

The feeding roller 33 is located in the middle section of the rotating shaft 32 and a material-pickling protrusion 350 is provided on the surface. An arc-shaped recess 351 is provided in the middle of the feeding roller 33 to fit the shape of the mushroom stick. A feeding hopper 36 is provided on the base 31, and the feeding hopper 36 is arranged around the feeding roller 33. The ends of the feeding roller 33 and the material-pickling protrusion 350 are arc-shaped and made of silicone material to reduce damage to the wood ear.

[0033] In order to facilitate the separation of wood ear and mushroom sticks, the wood ear picking machine also includes a sorting device 4, which is arranged at the discharge end of the ear picking device 2. The sorting device 4 includes a hopper 41 located at the lower end of the discharge port of the ear picking tube 21, a screening belt 42 located at the end of the hopper 41, and a collecting box 43 located at the bottom end of the screening belt 42. The bottom surface of the hopper 41 is inclined to the discharge direction and the angle between the hopper 41 and the screening belt 42 is greater than 90 degrees. The screening belt 42 includes a conveyor belt 421, a pair of rollers 422 connected to the conveyor belt 421, and a motor 423 for driving the rollers 422 to rotate.

The gap between the mushroom stick baffles 401 is larger than the size of the wood ear and smaller than the outer diameter of the mushroom sticks. The mushroom stick baffles are preferably round rods with both ends pivotally connected to the conveyor belt 421.

[0034] The connection between the edge of the conveyor belt 421 and the leakage hole 400 is an inclined surface inclined toward the leakage hole 400. After the wood ear enters the conveyor belt 421, it can follow the inclined surface into the leakage hole 400, thereby improving the discharge efficiency.

[0035] When the fungus picking machine of the present invention is working, the unpicked mushroom sticks are transported to the feed hopper 36 through the conveyor belt, and enter between the rotating shaft 32 and the feed roller 33 of the square structure under the action of gravity. The rotating motor 34 drives the rotating shaft 32 and the feed roller 33 to rotate, and the feed roller 33 pushes the mushroom sticks toward the feed port through the material pushing protrusion 350. After the mushroom sticks enter the ear picking tube 21, they are fixed by the clamping frame 28 to limit the circumferential rotation. The driving mechanism 22 drives the ear picking tube 21 to rotate, and the scraper 26 in the ear picking tube 21 scrapes the fungus off the mushroom sticks, wherein the adjustment plate 25 can adjust the height in the adjustment groove 210. The distance of the mushroom picking tube 21 is adjusted in the area of ​​the strip hole 230 of the fixed plate 23, so that the mushroom picking area of ​​the scraper 26 is adjusted to adapt to different mushroom stick sizes and the growth conditions of the fungus, so as to achieve a better picking effect; the mushroom sticks and fungus after picking enter the hopper 41 of the sorting device 4, and the hopper 41 guides the mushroom sticks obliquely onto the conveyor belt 421, and the fungus falls from the leakage hole 400 on the conveyor belt 421, while the mushroom sticks are blocked by the mushroom stick blocking rod 401 on the leakage hole 400. Finally, the mushroom sticks are transported to the waste end with the conveyor belt 421, and the fungus is collected by the collecting box 43, and the picking of fungus is completed.

[0036] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
