[0002] Grapes are one of people's favorite fruits. A large number of grapes are available on the market every summer. However, many people do not know that before the grapes grow, they will grow grape flowers. In order to improve the economic benefits of grape planting, many large-scale grape producers will perform vegetable and fruit cutting operations on the grape flowers when they grow out to improve the growth of subsequent grapes.

[0003] Grape flower spikes were initially corrected by manually removing them, and later they were pruned one by one using scissors. With the advancement of technology, special tools for pruning grape flower spikes have appeared on the market, but most of them have a structural principle similar to that of scissors.

When the device is working, the staff picks up the entire device by holding the handle 2, aligns the first clamping recess 6 and the second clamping recess 7 with the grape flower spike that needs to be trimmed, and under the operation of the first rotating motor 5, the two clamping recesses are close to each other to wrap the flower spike. At this time, the arm moves the entire device downward, and the cutting part 9 will cut out the excess flower spikes outside the spike axis, and retain 3.5-4 cm flower spikes at the bottom of the spike axis according to the type of grape. After cutting, the first rotating motor 5 opens the two clamping recesses. There is no need to trim the flower spikes one by one during the whole process, and there is no need to apply holding force to the device, and long-term use will not make the hands sore.

[0031] The first clamping recess 6 includes a first arc plate 61, one end of the first arc plate 61 is symmetrically connected to a movable slider 62, a threaded hole is formed on the movable slider 62, and the threaded hole matches the bidirectional rotating screw 4, the other end of the first arc plate 61 is connected to a raised plate 63, the inner side of the raised plate 63 is connected to the cutting part 9, the inner middle part of the first arc plate 61 is connected to the cutting part 9, the first arc plate 61 has a first groove 64 at the bottom, a slide groove is formed at the top of the first groove 64, a first locking hole 65 is formed on the slide groove, and the slide groove The laser emitting device 66 is slidably connected, and a cutting portion 9 is provided on the symmetrical sides of the two clamping recesses. The cutting portion 9 is detachably connected to the T-shaped plate 8, and the inner side of the raised plate 63 is connected to the cutting portion 9, forming a cross structure in the two clamping portions, so as to perform cutting operations on all sides of the grape flower. The shape of the first arc plate 61 is convenient for wrapping the grape flower, and the movable slider 62 can move under the rotation of the bidirectional rotating screw rod. The laser emitting device 66 at the bottom can slide up and down in the slide groove to facilitate height adjustment. The first locking hole 65 and the screws can be used to position the laser emitting device 66.

[0032] The laser emitting device 66 includes a first slide plate 661, on which second locking holes 662 are spaced apart, and the second locking holes 662 match the first locking holes 65. A laser emitting component 663 is provided at the bottom of the first slide plate 661. The first slide plate 661 can slide up and down in the slide groove. The second locking hole 662 is connected to the first locking hole 65 by screws after the position is adjusted, and the bottom laser emitting component 663 matches the laser receiving device 72.

[0033] The second clamping recess 7 includes a second arc plate 71, the bottom of the second arc plate 71 is connected to a laser receiving device 72, one end of the second arc plate 71 is the same structure as the first arc plate 61, the other end of the second arc plate 71 is provided with a concave groove 73, the concave groove 73 matches the convex plate 63, the bottom of the second arc plate 71 is slidably connected to the laser receiving device 72, the first arc plate 61 and the second arc plate 71 are provided with warning lights, the second clamping recess 7 is similar in structure to the first clamping recess 6, and is mirror-symmetrical, the laser receiving device 72 is similar in structure to the laser emitting component 663, when the laser receiving device 72 receives the laser emission When the light of component 663 is on, the prompt light is red. After the flower spike is wrapped, the laser receiving device 72 cannot receive the laser information due to the obstruction of the spike axis and the flower spike, and the prompt light turns green. When cutting around the spike axis, we need to move the entire device down. When the bottom spike axis cannot block the laser, the distance between the top of the bottom spike axis and the cutting device is fixed. At this time, the prompt light turns green, informing the staff that the distance of the bottom spike axis is already the preset distance, and stopping the cutting operation to ensure that the distance at the bottom of the spike axis is between 3.5-4cm. The specific distance can be controlled by adjusting the lifting and lowering of the laser emitting component 663 and the laser receiving device 72.

[0034] When the device is cutting, the height of the laser emitting component 663 and the laser receiving device 72 at the bottom and the distance from the cutting part 9 are adjusted to the preset value. Before the two clamping parts cut the flower spike, the indicator light is green. During cutting, due to the obstruction of the flower spike, the indicator light is red. When the indicator light turns green again, it means that the bottom of the grape flower spike has just left the laser emitting device 66, and the cutting is stopped at this time.

[0035] A reserved groove 611 is symmetrically provided at the intersection of the inner sides of the first arc plate 61 and the second arc plate 71.

When the cutting part 9 is working, the telescopic cylinder 91 drives the trapezoidal block 92 to approach the middle, and the cross-arranged trapezoidal block 92 limits the axis of the grape flower spike in the middle, and the cutting disk 94 at the bottom starts to rotate, and when the device moves downward, it will cut off the excess grape flowers.

[0037] The end of the trapezoidal block 92 is provided with a groove, which is convenient for cutting the branches around the grape spike axis.

[0038] The above-described embodiments only express a certain implementation mode of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the patent scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention shall be based on the attached claims.
