Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fruit collecting equipment, and in particular to a wolfberry collecting device and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Ripe wolfberry fruits have the characteristics of thin, tender skin and juicy flesh. If the structure design of the device for collecting wolfberry fruits is unreasonable or the material selection is inappropriate, the wolfberry fruits will suffer certain mechanical damage during the collection process. At present, the existing fruit collection devices can be roughly divided into portable collection devices and integrated collection devices. Among them, the portable collection devices are divided into inverted umbrella type, backpack type and handheld type according to different operation methods. The integrated collection devices are divided into gantry straddle harvester integrated and shaking harvester integrated.

[0003] However, as the current wolfberry picking is developing towards full automation and mechanization, portable collection devices that require manual load-bearing and operation are no longer suitable for mechanized wolfberry harvesting. Therefore, the wolfberry fruit collection device is developing towards the integrated machine direction. The integrated collection device in the prior art has the following problems:

[0004] 1) The fruit collection mechanism of the gantry straddle harvester is often made of rigid material. The wolfberry fruit has thin skin and tender flesh. Using the fruit collection mechanism of this material to collect the fruit will increase the damage rate of the fruit;

[0005] 2) The fruit collecting mechanism of the shaking harvester is mostly in the shape of an inverted umbrella, and its working space is large. This type of equipment is often used to harvest the fruits of trees. However, wolfberry is a shrub, and its planting pattern is dwarfed and dense. The branches of wolfberry are bow-shaped or drooping to the ground. The inverted umbrella-shaped fruit collecting mechanism cannot gather the branches that are bent and drooping to the ground. Therefore, the effect of using this equipment to collect wolfberry fruits is not good, and it is easy to miss branches and fruits. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a wolfberry collecting device, which can solve the technical problem in the prior art that the fruit collecting mechanism made of rigid material will increase the damage rate of the fruit. It can also solve the technical problem that the prior art cannot collect all wolfberry branches, resulting in missing branches, missing fruits or splashing losses when picking fruits. At the same time, the present invention also provides a method for using the wolfberry collecting device, which is applied to a wolfberry collecting device.

[0014] Furthermore, the opening diameter of the slot is larger than the distance from the far end of the slot to the center of the through hole.

[0015] Furthermore, the through hole opened on the surface of the bottom plate is circular, the notches are evenly arranged around the periphery of the through hole and connected to the through hole, and a number of threaded holes II connected to the bearing locating member bolts are symmetrically opened on the left and right sides of the notch.

[0016] Furthermore, the number of the bearing locating members is the same as the number of the slots, and several bearing locating members are evenly arranged in a surrounding form on the periphery of the through hole.

[0022] The present invention also provides a method for using a wolfberry collection device, which is applied to the above-mentioned wolfberry collection device, and the specific steps include:

[0023] Step S1: Assemble components and adjust device position

[0024] First, the wolfberry collecting device is mounted on the top of the fruit conveying device adapted thereto, and then the position of the wolfberry collecting device is adjusted by adjusting the position of the fruit conveying device, so that the receiving mechanism in the wolfberry collecting device is close to the wolfberry tree to be picked, at which time, the receiving cloth in the receiving mechanism is rolled up and wrapped around the outer surface of the rolling shaft, and the bottom end of the arc-shaped guide rail connected to the tail end of the receiving cloth is located close to the rolling shaft;

[0025] Step S2: Stretch the receiving cloth and collect the fruits

[0026] When it is time to start picking and collecting wolfberry fruits, the handle is shaken forward so that the hand wheel drives the power shaft to rotate forward, thereby driving the winding shaft to rotate to gradually loosen the receiving cloth. At the same time, the arc-shaped guide rails that penetrate the slots and through holes and are in rolling cooperation with a number of bearing positioning members guide the receiving cloth. Under the action of its gravity, it moves in a direction away from the winding shaft, thereby driving the receiving cloth to gradually unfold into an arc-shaped surface, until the bottom end of the arc-shaped guide rail reaches the lowest point and the receiving cloth is fully unfolded. At this time, the tail edge of the receiving cloth between the two adjacent arc-shaped guide rails is in contact with the bottom of the wolfberry tree. The arc-shaped guide rails are in contact with the trunk part, so that the two adjacent arc-shaped guide rails cooperate to realize the fruit receiving function of a fruit tree. Under the action of the arc-shaped guide rails, the arc-shaped guide rails can extend to the bottom trunk to reduce the situation of missing branches and fruits. It is not easy to damage the branches when sliding upward along the path. At the same time, the arc-shaped surface not only has a good wrapping property for the branches of the wolfberry tree to prevent splashing loss when picking fruits, but also can lift the bowed branches without damaging the branches of the wolfberry tree, which is convenient for mechanical picking. Subsequently, the fruits are picked using suitable mechanical equipment, and the fruits fall into the fully expanded receiving cloth surface;

[0027] Step S3: Fold the receiving cloth and transfer the fruit

[0028] After the fruits are picked and collected on the surface of the receiving cloth, the receiving cloth needs to be folded up to transfer the fruits on it to a suitable fruit conveying device. The handle is shaken in the opposite direction to make the hand wheel drive the power shaft to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby driving the winding shaft to rotate to gradually tighten and fold the receiving cloth. At the same time, the arc guide rail that runs through the slots and through holes and is rollingly matched with a number of bearing positioning parts is dragged by the receiving cloth connected to its bottom end and gradually moves toward the direction close to the winding shaft. The receiving cloth is folded layer by layer and tightened on the surface of the winding shaft. As the receiving cloth is folded up, the fruits falling on the surface of the receiving cloth will roll down to the suitable fruit conveying device under the receiving mechanism as the inclination of the receiving cloth gradually increases, and be transported to the next process.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0030] 1. The present invention has the characteristics of high efficiency in receiving fruits, low cost and practicality. A canvas coated with hydrophobic and saccharophobic gel on the surface is selected as the material of the receiving cloth. The receiving cloth made of soft material will not damage the fruit skin when receiving the fruit, thereby reducing the damage rate of the fruit and preventing the juice of the damaged fruit from adhering to the surface of the receiving cloth to affect the service life of the receiving cloth.

[0031] 2. The invention cooperates with the receiving cloth to form an arc-shaped surface when the receiving cloth is unfolded. The contour design of the arc-shaped surface can extend to the bottom of the tree trunk under the action of the arc-shaped guide rail, reducing the situation of missing branches and fruits, and is not easy to damage the branches when sliding upward along the path. At the same time, the arc-shaped surface not only has good wrapping properties for the branches of the wolfberry tree, preventing splashing losses when picking fruits, but also can lift the bowed branches without damaging the branches of the wolfberry tree, which is convenient for mechanical picking;

[0032] 3. The arrangement of several bearing positioning members in the present invention can not only provide support for the arc-shaped guide rail to penetrate the slot and through hole, but also limit the movement range of the arc-shaped guide rail in the horizontal direction, so as to prevent the arc-shaped guide rail from shaking left and right in the slot and through hole through which it penetrates when it moves, causing the receiving cloth connected to the arc-shaped guide rail to be incompletely unfolded, thereby increasing the difficulty of fruit collection and causing fruit leakage;

[0033] Other beneficial effects of the present invention will be further described in the following specific embodiments. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a wolfberry collection device,

[0045] It includes a supporting mechanism and a bearing limiting mechanism, a receiving mechanism and a reel mechanism arranged thereon.

[0046] The supporting mechanism has the function of providing support for the bearing limiting mechanism, the receiving mechanism and the winding wheel mechanism, and comprises a horizontal beam 1 and legs 2 arranged at the left and right ends thereof. A slot hole 101 is provided on the surface of the horizontal beam 1, a bearing limiting mechanism and a receiving mechanism penetrating the bearing limiting mechanism and rollingly cooperating with the bearing limiting mechanism are arranged at the slot hole 101, a leg shaft hole 3 is provided on the side of the leg 2, and the winding wheel mechanism penetrates the leg shaft hole 3 and is connected to the supporting mechanism;

[0047] The bearing limiting mechanism has the function of limiting the horizontal movement amplitude of the receiving mechanism, and includes limiting components 4 symmetrically arranged on the upper and lower end surfaces of the horizontal beam 1, the limiting components 4 include a bottom plate 401 and a plurality of bearing positioning members arranged on its end surface, a through hole 402 penetrating the slot 101 and a notch 403 for placing the bearing positioning member are opened on the surface of the bottom plate 401, and a plurality of notches 403 are evenly arranged around the through hole 402 in a surrounding form, the bearing positioning member includes a positioning shaft 405 bearing 404 and a positioning shaft 405 penetrating the positioning shaft 405 bearing 404 and a bearing seat 406 arranged on the left and right ends of the positioning shaft 405, and the receiving mechanism can penetrate the through hole 402 on the surface of the bottom plate 401 and roll with the bearing positioning member;

[0048] The receiving mechanism has the function of receiving and collecting fruits, and comprises an arc-shaped guide rail 5 penetrating the slot hole 101 and the through hole 402, and a receiving cloth 7 connected to the surface of the arc-shaped guide rail. The arc-shaped guide rail can be in rolling contact with the bearing positioning member. One end of the receiving cloth 7 is connected to the arc-shaped guide rail, and the other end thereof is connected to the reel mechanism.

[0049] The reel mechanism has the function of opening and folding the receiving cloth 7, and includes a reel passing through the leg shaft hole 3 and a handwheel 10 arranged on the end side of the reel. The reel includes a reeling shaft 8 for folding the receiving cloth 7 and a power shaft 9 for driving the reeling shaft 8. The handwheel 10 includes a wheel body 1001 connected to the power shaft 9 and a handle 1002 arranged on its end face.

[0050] In the embodiment of the present invention, the horizontal beam 1 is a square tube, and a slot 101 is provided on its surface, which passes through from the upper surface of the horizontal beam 1 to the lower surface of the horizontal beam 1. The slot 101 is in a square shape. The upper and lower surfaces of the horizontal beam 1 are also provided with threaded holes Ⅰ102 connected with the bearing limit mechanism bolts around the slot 101. Specifically, the bottom plate 401 in the bearing limit mechanism is fastened to the slot 101 provided on the surface of the horizontal beam 1 by the cooperation of the bolts and the threaded holes Ⅰ102. The support leg 2 includes a side bracket and a support plate provided at the bottom end thereof, and the support plate can be used to achieve the purpose of assembling with the adapted fruit conveying device, and the assembled fruit conveying device is located below the reel mechanism.

[0051] In the embodiment of the present invention, the opening diameter of the slot hole 101 is larger than the distance from the far end of the slot 403 to the center of the through hole 402, so that when the limit assembly 4 is installed on the surface of the horizontal beam 1, the bottom end of the bearing locator located at the slot 403 will not contact the surface of the horizontal beam 1, avoiding the situation that the movement effect of the positioning shaft 405 and the bearing 404 in the bearing locator is affected;

[0052] In the embodiment of the present invention, the through hole 402 opened on the surface of the bottom plate 401 is circular, the notches 403 are evenly arranged around the periphery of the through hole 402 and are connected to the through hole 402, and a plurality of threaded holes II 407 connected to the bearing locator bolts are symmetrically opened on the left and right sides of the notch 403, and the matching arrangement of the notch 403 and the threaded holes II 407 facilitates the bearing locator to adjust its position arbitrarily in the opening direction of the notch 403, so that the bearing locator placed in the notch 403 can just contact the surface of the arc guide rail, thereby achieving the purpose of rolling fit between the bearing locator and the arc guide rail;

[0053] In the embodiment of the present invention, the number of the bearing locators is the same as the number of the slots 403, and several bearing locators are evenly arranged on the periphery of the through hole 402 in a surrounding form. The space area surrounded by one end of the several bearing locators close to the through hole 402 can allow the arc-shaped guide rail to pass through and roll with the several bearing locators. When the arc-shaped guide rail penetrates the slot 101 and the through hole 402 and moves downward under the action of gravity, it can drive the positioning shafts 405 and the bearings 404 in the several bearing locators in contact with the surface of the arc-shaped guide rail to roll in the same direction. The setting of the bearing locators can not only provide support for the arc-shaped guide rail 5 to penetrate the slot 101 and the through hole 402, but also limit the movement amplitude of the arc-shaped guide rail in the horizontal direction, so as to avoid the arc-shaped guide rail from shaking left and right in the slot 101 and the through hole 402 penetrated by it when it moves, causing the receiving cloth 7 connected to the arc-shaped guide rail to be incompletely unfolded in the end, thereby increasing the difficulty of fruit collection and causing fruit leakage.

[0054] Specifically, there are two limit assemblies 4, which are symmetrically arranged at the slots 101 on the upper and lower end surfaces of the horizontal beam 1. The symmetrically arranged limit assemblies 4 have the function of stabilizing the movement trajectory of the arc-shaped guide rail. Preferably, the number of bearing locators in the limit assemblies 4 is three, and the number of positioning shafts 405 bearings 404 in the corresponding bearing locators is three. One end of each positioning shaft 405 bearing 404 close to the edge of the through hole 402 surrounds a space area that allows the arc-shaped guide rail to pass through. The surface of the arc-shaped guide rail contacts the end face of each positioning shaft 405 bearing 404 to form a rolling fit. If the space area is too large, the support capacity of the arc-shaped guide rail will be lost. If the space area is too small, the arc-shaped guide rail 5 will be stuck. Therefore, the bearing locator can be arbitrarily adjusted in the direction in which the slot 403 is opened, so that the positioning shaft 405 bearing 404 and the arc-shaped guide rail can achieve the purpose of optimal rolling fit.

[0055] In the embodiment of the present invention, the bearing seat 406 is symmetrically bolted to the left and right sides of the slot 403, the left and right ends of the positioning shaft 405 are respectively movably connected to the top of the symmetrically arranged bearing seat 406, the positioning shaft 405 bearing 404 is fixedly connected to the positioning shaft 405 passing through the center position thereof, and when the bearing positioning member is installed on the surface of the bottom plate 401, the bottom of the positioning shaft 405 bearing 404 is placed inside the slot 403;

[0056] In the embodiment of the present invention, the arc guide rail 5 adopts a hollow tube, the number of which is the same as the number of slots 101. The tube diameter of the arc guide rail is smaller than the aperture of the through hole 402 on the surface of the bottom plate 401. The top of the arc guide rail 5 is provided with a limiting piece 6 with a circular structure shape. The limiting piece 6 has the function of limiting the lowest position to which the arc guide rail 5 can move in the slots 101 and the through holes 402. The diameter of the limiting piece 6 must be greater than the aperture of the through hole 402 to achieve the purpose of limiting. When the arc guide rail moves in the slots 101 and the through holes 402 in the direction away from the winding shaft 8 until the limiting piece 6 contacts the limiting component 4 located on the upper end surface of the horizontal beam 1, the bottom end of the arc guide rail 5 reaches the lowest position, and at this time, the receiving cloth 7 connected to the arc guide rail is fully unfolded;

[0057] In the embodiment of the present invention, the head end of the receiving cloth 7 is connected to the reel mechanism, and the tail end of the receiving cloth 7 is connected to the bottom end of the arc guide rail 5. When the receiving cloth 7 is unfolded, it forms an arc surface. The contour design of the arc surface can extend to the bottom trunk under the action of the arc guide rail 5, thereby reducing the leakage of branches and fruits, and it is not easy to damage the branches when sliding upward along the path. At the same time, the arc surface not only has a good wrapping property for the branches of the wolfberry tree, preventing splashing losses when picking fruits, but also can lift the bowed branches without damaging the branches of the wolfberry tree, so as to facilitate mechanical picking. The receiving cloth 7 is made of canvas with hydrophobic and saccharophobic gel on the surface. The receiving cloth 7 made of soft material will not damage the fruit skin when receiving the fruit, thus reducing the damage rate of the fruit and preventing the juice of the damaged fruit from adhering to the surface of the receiving cloth 7, thereby affecting the service life of the receiving cloth 7. The surface of the receiving cloth 7 is evenly provided with a plurality of transverse partitions made of the same material as the receiving cloth 7. The transverse partitions can ensure that the fruit falling on the surface of the receiving cloth 7 during the fruit picking process will not slide down and be concentrated at the bottom of the receiving cloth 7 due to the tilted state of the receiving cloth 7, so that the fruit will not be squeezed and damaged by each other.

[0058] In the embodiment described in the present invention, the left and right ends of the rolling shaft 8 are movably connected to the leg shaft holes 3 of the legs 2 located at the left and right ends of the horizontal beam 1 through bearings respectively, and the rolling shaft 8 can rotate relative to the central axis of the leg shaft hole 3, and one end of the rolling shaft 8 is fixedly connected to the hand wheel 10 through the power shaft 9, and the surface of the rolling shaft 8 is fixedly connected to the head end of the receiving cloth 7, and the receiving cloth 7 can be rolled up and wrapped around its outer surface when the rolling shaft 8 rotates. At this time, the bottom end of the arc guide rail 5 connected to the tail end of the receiving cloth 7 is in a position close to the rolling shaft 8; when the receiving cloth 7 needs to be unfolded, the handle 1002 is shaken forward so that the hand wheel 10 drives the power shaft 9 to rotate forward, thereby driving the rolling shaft 8 to rotate to gradually loosen the receiving cloth 7, and at the same time, the arc guide rail 5 that passes through the slot 101 and the through hole 402 and rolls with a number of bearing positioning parts guides the receiving cloth 7. , under the action of its gravity, it moves in the direction away from the folding shaft 8, thereby driving the receiving cloth 7 to gradually unfold into an arc-shaped curved surface. When the bottom end of the arc-shaped guide rail 5 reaches the lowest point, the receiving cloth 7 is fully unfolded, and the picked fruits can fall onto the fully unfolded receiving cloth 7; when it is necessary to fold the receiving cloth 7, the handle 1002 is shaken in the opposite direction so that the hand wheel 10 drives the power shaft 9 to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby driving the folding shaft 8 to rotate to gradually tighten and fold the receiving cloth 7, and the arc-shaped guide rail 5 that passes through the slot 101 and the through hole 402 and is rollingly matched with a number of bearing positioning members is dragged by the receiving cloth 7 connected to its bottom end and gradually moves in the direction close to the folding shaft 8, and the receiving cloth 7 is folded layer by layer and tightened on the surface of the folding shaft 8. As the receiving cloth 7 is folded, the fruits falling on the surface of the receiving cloth 7 will roll to the external fruit conveying device below the receiving mechanism as the inclination degree of the receiving cloth 7 gradually increases;

[0059] Specifically, the number of the slots 101 is three, and the number of the corresponding arc-shaped guide rails is also three. The tail edge of the receiving cloth 7 between two adjacent arc-shaped guide rails contacts the bottom trunk of the wolfberry tree, so that the two adjacent arc-shaped guide rails cooperate to achieve the function of receiving the fruit of one fruit tree. Therefore, the receiving mechanism with three arc-shaped guide rails 5 can receive the fruit of two fruit trees at the same time, which improves the picking efficiency and reduces the picking cost.

[0060] In the embodiment of the present invention, the center position of the wheel body 1001 is fixedly connected to the end of the power shaft 9, and the handle 1002 is fixedly connected to the edge end of the wheel body 1001. The receiving cloth 7 is stretched and retracted by manually rotating the hand wheel 10, so that the actual situation of fruit collection on the receiving cloth 7 can be manually judged, and the speed and frequency of transferring the fruits can be adjusted.

[0061] The present invention also provides a method for using a wolfberry collection device, which is applied to the above-mentioned wolfberry collection device, and the specific steps include:

[0062] Step S1: Assemble components and adjust device position

[0063] First, the wolfberry collecting device is assembled on the top of the fruit conveying device adapted thereto, and then the position of the wolfberry collecting device is adjusted by adjusting the position of the fruit conveying device, so that the receiving mechanism in the wolfberry collecting device is close to the wolfberry tree to be picked. At this time, the receiving cloth 7 in the receiving mechanism is rolled up and wrapped around the outer surface of the rolling shaft 8, and the bottom end of the arc guide rail 5 connected to the tail end of the receiving cloth 7 is located close to the rolling shaft 8;

[0064] Step S2: Stretch the receiving cloth 7 and collect the fruits

[0065] When it is necessary to start picking and collecting wolfberry fruits, the handle 1002 is shaken forward so that the hand wheel 10 drives the power shaft 9 to rotate forward, thereby driving the winding shaft 8 to rotate to gradually loosen the receiving cloth 7. At the same time, the arc guide rail 5 that runs through the slot 101 and the through hole 402 and is in rolling cooperation with a number of bearing positioning members guides the receiving cloth 7. Under the action of its gravity, it moves in the direction away from the winding shaft 8, thereby driving the receiving cloth 7 to gradually unfold into an arc surface, until the bottom end of the arc guide rail 5 reaches the lowest point and the receiving cloth 7 is fully unfolded. At this time, the tail of the receiving cloth 7 between the two adjacent arc guide rails is The end edge contacts the bottom trunk part of the wolfberry tree, so that the two adjacent arc-shaped guide rails cooperate to achieve the function of receiving the fruit of a fruit tree. Under the action of the arc-shaped guide rail 5, it can extend to the bottom trunk, reduce the situation of missing branches and fruits, and is not easy to damage the branches when sliding upward along the path. At the same time, the arc surface not only has a good wrapping property for the branches of the wolfberry tree, preventing splashing losses when picking fruits, but also can lift the bowed branches without damaging the branches of the wolfberry tree, which is convenient for mechanical picking; then, use suitable mechanical equipment to pick the fruits, and the fruits fall into the surface of the fully expanded receiving cloth 7;

[0066] Step S3: Folding the receiving cloth 7 and transferring the fruit

[0067] After the fruits are picked and collected on the surface of the receiving cloth 7, the receiving cloth 7 needs to be folded up to transfer the fruits thereon to a suitable fruit conveying device. The handle 1002 is shaken in the opposite direction so that the hand wheel 10 drives the power shaft 9 to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby driving the winding shaft 8 to rotate to gradually tighten and fold the receiving cloth 7. At the same time, the arc guide rail 5 that passes through the slot 101 and the through hole 402 and is rollingly matched with a number of bearing positioning members is dragged by the receiving cloth 7 connected to its bottom end and gradually moves toward the direction close to the winding shaft 8.

6. A method for using a wolfberry collecting device, the method being applied to the wolfberry collecting device according to any one of claims 1 to 5, characterized in that: The specific steps include Step S1: Assemble components and adjust device position First, the wolfberry collecting device is mounted on the top of the fruit conveying device adapted thereto, and then the position of the wolfberry collecting device is adjusted by adjusting the position of the fruit conveying device, so that the receiving mechanism in the wolfberry collecting device is close to the wolfberry tree to be picked, at which time, the receiving cloth in the receiving mechanism is rolled up and wrapped around the outer surface of the rolling shaft, and the bottom end of the arc-shaped guide rail connected to the tail end of the receiving cloth is located close to the rolling shaft; Step S2: Stretch the receiving cloth and collect the fruits When it is time to start picking and collecting wolfberry fruits, the handle is shaken forward so that the hand wheel drives the power shaft to rotate forward, thereby driving the winding shaft to rotate to gradually loosen the receiving cloth. At the same time, the arc-shaped guide rails that penetrate the slots and through holes and are in rolling cooperation with a number of bearing positioning members guide the receiving cloth. Under the action of its gravity, it moves in a direction away from the winding shaft, thereby driving the receiving cloth to gradually unfold into an arc-shaped surface, until the bottom end of the arc-shaped guide rail reaches the lowest point and the receiving cloth is fully unfolded. At this time, the tail edge of the receiving cloth between the two adjacent arc-shaped guide rails is in contact with the bottom of the wolfberry tree. The arc-shaped guide rails are in contact with the trunk part, so that the two adjacent arc-shaped guide rails cooperate to realize the fruit receiving function of a fruit tree. Under the action of the arc-shaped guide rails, the arc-shaped guide rails can extend to the bottom trunk to reduce the situation of missing branches and fruits. It is not easy to damage the branches when sliding upward along the path. At the same time, the arc-shaped surface not only has a good wrapping property for the branches of the wolfberry tree to prevent splashing loss when picking fruits, but also can lift the bowed branches without damaging the branches of the wolfberry tree, which is convenient for mechanical picking. Subsequently, the fruits are picked using suitable mechanical equipment, and the fruits fall into the fully expanded receiving cloth surface; Step S3: Fold the receiving cloth and transfer the fruit After the fruits are picked and collected on the surface of the receiving cloth, the receiving cloth needs to be folded up to transfer the fruits on it to a suitable fruit conveying device. The handle is shaken in the opposite direction to make the hand wheel drive the power shaft to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby driving the winding shaft to rotate to gradually tighten and fold the receiving cloth. At the same time, the arc guide rail that runs through the slots and through holes and is rollingly matched with a number of bearing positioning parts is dragged by the receiving cloth connected to its bottom end and gradually moves toward the direction close to the winding shaft. The receiving cloth is folded layer by layer and tightened on the surface of the winding shaft. As the receiving cloth is folded up, the fruits falling on the surface of the receiving cloth will roll down to the suitable fruit conveying device under the receiving mechanism as the inclination of the receiving cloth gradually increases, and be transported to the next process.
