Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of gardening equipment, and in particular relates to a portable apple picking rod. Background Art

[0002] Picking is a highly seasonal, labor-intensive and expensive process, and is the most time-consuming and labor-intensive part of the fruit production chain. Currently, domestic apple picking is basically done manually, and the cost accounts for about 50%-70% of the cost.

[0003] There are three main types of mechanical picking in orchards: shaking, impact and cutting. The shaking type uses external force to shake the tree or branches to separate the fruit from the branches and make them fall; the impact type uses impact parts to directly hit the branches, or knocks on the trellis that fix the branches to make the fruit fall; the cutting type uses cutting to separate the fruit stalk from the tree.

[0004] The choice and use of these three harvesting methods depends mainly on several factors. First, the size of the orchard is one of the biggest factors affecting harvesting. The owner of a small orchard will usually hire workers to harvest by hand, while a large orchard is more likely to rely on one of the mechanical harvesting methods or at least a combination of the two to save time and money.

[0005] Most orchards in southern my country are located in hilly and mountainous areas, which are sloping lands. Therefore, there are few suitable picking machines, and the problem of danger is more prominent. Due to the complexity of the working environment, the development of picking robots has not yet met the requirements of agricultural production, especially the visual recognition and walking devices, which are still a long way from practicality and commercialization, so it is necessary to design a portable picking pole.
