Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of agricultural automated machinery, and in particular to a rubber collecting device and a rubber collecting vehicle. Background Art

[0002] Natural rubber is widely used in daily necessities and industrial products because of its unique, excellent and irreplaceable natural properties, and plays an important role in the development of modern society. At present, the way to obtain natural rubber at home and abroad mainly relies on manual tapping and rubber collection. This operation method has high labor intensity and low work efficiency. Even if a large number of rubber farmers work hard, the rubber output obtained still cannot meet the huge demand for natural rubber. Therefore, it is urgent to change the traditional manual tapping and rubber collection methods. At present, rubber plantations in various places have begun to adopt intelligent and automated rubber tapping technology, but after the rubber tapping is completed, they still have to face the work of collecting rubber. At present, automated rubber collection has not been realized in the rubber industry. The latex collectors supporting intelligent rubber tapping technology still use traditional rubber cups. Rubber workers mainly use handheld rubber cups to pour latex into the rubber bucket in their hands. Collecting rubber is a relatively mechanical job that requires almost no technology, but it requires a lot of physical strength and is a typical physical labor. However, in the current rubber production process, automated rubber collection has not been realized, and there are problems such as large human resource consumption and high labor costs in the rubber collection process. Therefore, how to realize mechanized rubber collection is a problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the embodiments of the present application is to provide a rubber collecting device and a rubber collecting vehicle, which can solve the problem that the existing rubber collecting cannot be mechanized.

[0004] An embodiment of the present application provides a rubber collection device, including: a fixed bracket, a rubber collection bowl and a flip mechanism, the fixed bracket is suitable for being fixed on a rubber tree or near a rubber tree; the rubber collection bowl is used to collect rubber; the flip mechanism is installed on the fixed bracket, and includes a flip arm, a first lever and a transmission assembly, the first lever is suitable for being pushed and rotated by a rubber collection vehicle, the first lever is connected to the flip arm through the transmission assembly, the rubber collection bowl is connected to the flip arm, the first lever can drive the flip arm to rotate through the transmission assembly, so that the flip arm can drive the rubber collection bowl to flip to dump the rubber into the rubber collection vehicle.

[0005] In the above implementation process, based on the rubber collecting device of this solution, when collecting rubber, the rubber collecting vehicle drives past each rubber collecting device in turn, so as to collect the rubber in multiple rubber collecting devices. Among them, the rubber collecting vehicle can be manually driven or an unmanned vehicle equipped with an adaptive cruise system, on which a rubber storage bucket capable of loading rubber is installed, and the collected rubber is loaded in the rubber storage bucket. If an unmanned vehicle is used, automatic rubber collection can be achieved to the greatest extent. Even if the vehicle is manually driven to collect rubber, the driver does not need to get off the vehicle frequently to pour the rubber. He only needs to drive the vehicle through each rubber collecting device in turn. Therefore, mechanized rubber collection is achieved, which greatly reduces manpower input. At the same time, since there is no need to pour the rubber manually, the efficiency of rubber collection is effectively accelerated.

[0006] In addition, the glue collecting device provided in this solution is only composed of simple structures such as a simple fixed bracket, a glue collecting bowl and a flipping mechanism, and the flipping of the flipping mechanism does not require a separate driving device, and can be directly driven by the running glue collecting vehicle. Therefore, the glue collecting device of this solution obviously also has the advantages of simple structure, few failure points, durability, low cost, and suitability for wide promotion. The functional requirements for the glue collecting vehicle are not complicated. It only needs to be equipped with a glue storage bucket that can store rubber and a structure that can adapt to the rotation of the first lever that drives the flipping mechanism, such as a part of the vehicle body or a rod added to one side of the vehicle body. There is no need to set up complex high-cost and easily damaged structures such as manipulators, so the cost of the entire glue collecting equipment is not high.

[0007] In some embodiments, a rotation center axis of the first lever and a rotation center axis of the flip arm are disposed perpendicular to each other.

[0008] In the above implementation process, the rotation center axis of the first lever is set to be perpendicular to the rotation center axis of the flip arm, so that the rubber collecting bowl can be located on the left or right side of the rubber collecting vehicle and flipped to dump the rubber onto the rubber collecting vehicle, avoiding interference between the driving direction of the rubber collecting vehicle and the rubber collecting device, so that the rubber collecting vehicle can drive in a straight line to complete the rubber collecting process without complicated turning, reversing and other operations.

[0009] In some embodiments, the transmission assembly includes an active bevel gear and a driven bevel gear respectively rotatably mounted on the fixed bracket, the active bevel gear is meshed with the driven bevel gear, the first shift rod is fixedly connected to the active bevel gear, and the flip arm is fixedly connected to the driven bevel gear.

[0010] In the above implementation process, the active bevel gear and the driven bevel gear, which are both bevel gears, are used for meshing transmission, which can just achieve the perpendicularity between the input axis and the output axis, that is, meet the above requirement of setting the rotation center axis of the first lever to be perpendicular to the rotation center axis of the flip arm. In addition, the bevel gear transmission has the characteristics of stable transmission ratio and high transmission efficiency. Since the active bevel gear and the driven bevel gear are directly meshed, the energy loss during the transmission process is small, which can ensure that the flip arm obtains sufficient rotational power; the bevel gear transmission structure is compact and occupies little space. In the application scenario of the glue collecting device with limited space, it helps to reduce the overall volume of the device and facilitates installation and fixation.

[0011] In some embodiments, the fixed bracket includes a bracket body, a first adapter block, a second adapter block and a third adapter block, the first adapter block includes a first fixed plate, a second fixed plate and a third fixed plate connected in sequence in a "Z" shape, the first fixed plate is fixedly connected to the bracket body, the second adapter block is fixedly connected to the side of the third fixed plate away from the second fixed plate, so that a first rotation installation space is formed between the second adapter block and the second fixed plate; the third adapter block is fixedly connected to the side of the second adapter block close to the first adapter block, so that the side of the third adapter block close to the first adapter block forms a second rotation installation space connected to the first rotation installation space; the active bevel gear is rotatably installed in the first rotation installation space, and the rotating shaft of the active bevel gear is rotatably connected to the first adapter block and / or the second adapter block; the driven bevel gear is rotatably installed in the second rotation installation space, and the rotating shaft of the driven bevel gear is rotatably connected to the first adapter block and / or the third adapter block.

[0012] In the above implementation process, the first adapter block adopts a "Z"-shaped connection design, that is, the first fixed plate, the second fixed plate and the third fixed plate are connected in sequence at right angles or approximately right angles. This design not only makes the structure more compact, but also cleverly utilizes space, providing the necessary conditions for the installation of the transmission assembly. The second adapter block is fixedly connected to the side of the third fixed plate away from the second fixed plate. The first rotating installation space formed between it and the second fixed plate can just accommodate the active bevel gear to provide a stable and reliable installation environment for the active bevel gear. Specifically, one end or both ends of the rotating shaft of the active bevel gear can be installed on the second fixed plate and / or the second adapter block. The third adapter block is fixedly connected to the side of the second adapter block close to the first adapter block to form a second rotating installation space. This space is connected to the first rotating installation space, providing a position for the installation of the driven bevel gear. Since the driven bevel gear needs to mesh with the active bevel gear, this layout can ensure the correct meshing relationship between the two. Therefore, the design of the fixed bracket of this embodiment fully considers the installation requirements and space utilization of the transmission component. Through the clever layout of the adapter blocks and the "Z"-shaped structure design, the compact installation and efficient transmission of the transmission component in the vertical direction are achieved. This design not only improves the stability and reliability of the glue collection device, but also reduces the manufacturing cost and maintenance difficulty.

[0013] In some embodiments, the plastic collecting bowl includes a plastic bowl bracket and a plastic bowl body, the plastic bowl body is mounted on the plastic bowl bracket, the plastic bowl bracket is rotatably connected to the flip arm, and the center of gravity of the plastic collecting bowl is located below the rotation center axis of the plastic bowl bracket, so that during the flipping process of the flip arm, the bowl mouth of the plastic bowl body is always facing upwards;

[0014] The fixing bracket is also equipped with a bowl flipping rod, which is used to push the rubber collecting bowl tightly at the glue pouring position, so that the continuously rotating flip arm can drive the rubber collecting bowl to flip and pour the rubber into the rubber collecting vehicle.

[0015] In the above implementation process, the rubber collecting bowl is composed of a rubber bowl bracket and a rubber bowl body. The rubber bowl body is installed on the rubber bowl bracket and is responsible for actually carrying the rubber. This split design allows the rubber bowl body to be easily replaced or cleaned, and the rubber bowl bracket provides a stable support structure. It is particularly noteworthy that the rubber bowl bracket is rotatably connected to the flip arm, and the center of gravity of the rubber collecting bowl is designed to be located below the rotation center axis of the rubber bowl bracket. This design plays a key role in the flipping process of the flip arm. It ensures that no matter how the flip arm rotates, the mouth of the rubber collecting bowl is always facing upward. This feature prevents the problem of rubber overflowing during the flipping process.

[0016] In order to achieve normal overturning of the bowl and pouring of glue in the correct position, a bowl overturning top rod is also installed on the fixed bracket. The top rod presses the glue collecting bowl tightly at the glue pouring position. When the overturning arm rotates to the glue pouring position, the bowl overturning top rod will contact and press a certain part of the glue collecting bowl (usually the bottom or side of the glue bowl bracket). At this time, if the overturning arm continues to rotate, the bowl overturning top rod will serve as a fulcrum, so that the rotational force of the overturning arm can drive the glue collecting bowl to overturn together. Under the action of the bowl overturning top rod, the glue collecting bowl is overturned to a certain angle, so that the bowl mouth of the glue collecting bowl is tilted, and the gum is poured into the glue collecting vehicle due to gravity. Therefore, the glue collecting device of this embodiment realizes efficient collection and pouring of gum through the cleverly designed gum collecting bowl, overturning arm, overturning top rod and other components, and avoids the problem of gum accidentally pouring out of the glue collecting vehicle during the overturning process.

[0017] In some embodiments, the rubber bowl bracket includes a rubber bowl support rod and a rubber bowl seat, one end of the rubber bowl support rod is rotatably connected to the flip arm, and the other end is fixedly connected to the rubber bowl support rod, and the rubber bowl body is fixed in the rubber bowl seat.

[0018] In the above implementation process, a rubber bowl support rod is set to connect between the rubber bowl seat and the flip arm, which can keep a large distance between the rubber bowl seat and the flip arm, so that the rubber bowl seat has sufficient room for movement, avoiding interference and collision during the flipping process.

[0019] In some implementations, a flip paddle is fixed to the middle of the rubber bowl support rod, and the flip paddle is used to cooperate with the flip bowl top rod. The flip bowl top rod presses the flip paddle tightly, so that the continuously rotating flip arm can drive the rubber collecting bowl to flip.

[0020] In the above implementation process, the design of the flip paddle enables the flip bowl top rod to transmit the flipping force to the rubber collecting bowl more directly and effectively, which helps to reduce friction and resistance during the flipping process and improve the stability and reliability of the flipping. By fixing the flip paddle in the middle of the rubber bowl support rod, the flip bowl top rod can be prevented from directly contacting the vulnerable parts of the rubber bowl body or the rubber bowl seat, which helps to reduce damage caused by mechanical impact and extend the service life of the rubber collecting bowl. The position selection of the flip paddle (middle) also takes into account the optimization of the spatial layout, which enables the flip bowl top rod to effectively cooperate with the flip paddle to complete the flipping action without interfering with other components.

[0021] In some embodiments, the flipping mechanism also includes a first torsion spring, which includes a first torsion arm and a second torsion arm at an angle to each other; the flip bowl top rod is rotatably installed on the fixed bracket, the first torsion arm is fixedly connected to the flip bowl top rod, and the second torsion arm is fixedly connected to the flip arm, so that the rotating flip arm can push the flip bowl top rod to rotate through the first torsion spring; the fixed bracket is also provided with a first limit block for limiting the rotation angle of the flip bowl top rod, and under the limiting action of the first limit block, the flip bowl top rod can remain fixed in the glue pouring position to tighten the glue collecting bowl.

[0022] In the above implementation process, the flip bowl top rod can be rotated to a position avoiding the driving path of the glue collection vehicle before collecting the glue, so as to avoid the problem of the flip bowl top rod being hit by the glue collection vehicle. At the same time, during the glue collection process, the flip arm can be rotated to drive the flip bowl top rod to rotate to the top bowl position.

[0023] In some embodiments, the flip bowl push rod includes a push rod member and a push rod support, the push rod support includes a first tube portion and a second tube portion vertically connected to each other, the first tube portion is rotatably connected to the fixed bracket, and the push rod member is inserted and fixed to the second tube portion.

[0024] In the above implementation process, the push rod support is composed of a first tube portion and a second tube portion which are vertically connected to each other, so that the push rod member can be arranged parallel to the flip arm while the rotation centers of the two can coincide, thereby realizing the function of the flip arm smoothly driving the push rod member to rotate. At the same time, the first torsion spring can be sleeved on the first tube portion, and the first tube portion is used to provide rotation support for the first torsion spring.

[0025] In some embodiments, the fixed bracket includes a positioning block and a bracket body, the positioning block is suitable for being fixed to one side of a rubber tree; the bracket body includes a first rod, a second rod and a third rod that are perpendicular to each other, the first rod is horizontally arranged, and one end of the first rod is fixedly connected to the positioning block; one end of the second rod is fixedly connected to the end of the first rod away from the positioning block, and the other end extends vertically upward; one end of the third rod is fixedly connected to the upper end of the second rod, and the other end extends in a direction away from the side where the positioning block is located, and the transmission assembly is installed at one end of the third rod away from the second rod.

[0026] In the above implementation process, the bracket body is composed of a first rod, a second rod and a third rod that are perpendicular to each other. This design is both stable and compact. The support of the first rod allows the transmission assembly to maintain a sufficient distance from the rubber tree, so as to provide sufficient activity space in the horizontal direction between the transmission assembly and the rubber collection bowl; the support of the second rod and the third rod allows the transmission assembly to be dislocated with the first rod in the vertical and horizontal directions, so that the flip arm has enough flip space.

[0027] On the other hand, an embodiment of the present application provides a rubber collection vehicle, which is used to collect rubber in cooperation with the above-mentioned rubber collection device; the rubber collection vehicle includes a frame, a rubber storage bucket and a lever assembly, the rubber storage bucket is installed on the frame to collect rubber; the lever assembly is installed on the frame and extends from one side to push the first lever of the rubber collection device to rotate.

[0028] In the above implementation process, the lever assembly provided on the rubber collecting vehicle is installed on the vehicle frame and extends from one side. This design enables the lever assembly to easily contact the first lever of the rubber collecting device, thereby driving it to rotate.

[0029] In some embodiments, the detent rod assembly includes a detent rod fixing seat, a detent rod support, a second detent rod and a second torsion spring, the detent rod fixing seat being fixed to the vehicle frame, the detent rod support being rotatably mounted on the detent rod fixing seat, the second torsion spring including a third torsion arm and a fourth torsion arm forming an angle with each other, the third torsion arm being fixedly connected to the second detent rod, and the fourth torsion arm being fixed to the detent rod fixing seat, a second limit block for limiting the rotation angle of the second detent rod being provided on the detent rod support seat, the second torsion spring being able to push the detent rod support seat so as to keep it abutting against the second limit block, thereby keeping the second detent rod in a position capable of cooperating to push the first detent rod; and when the force acting on the second detent rod is greater than the elastic force of the second torsion spring, the second detent rod can drive the detent rod support seat to rotate around the detent rod fixing seat.

[0030] In the above implementation process, during driving, when the second lever contacts the first lever, the spring torque provided by the second torsion spring is greater than the rotational resistance of the first lever, so the second lever can remain stable and easily push the first lever to rotate. When encountering obstacles such as trees and stones, the backward force applied by the obstacles on the second lever exceeds the torque provided by the second torsion spring. At this time, the second lever can drive the lever support to overcome the torque of the second torsion spring and rotate around the lever fixing seat, thereby avoiding the risk of the second lever being broken. Therefore, the lever assembly of this solution is set to be movable, which can automatically bypass obstacles while providing the function of normally pushing the first lever to rotate, and realize the function of self-protection.

[0044] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0045] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, so once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent drawings. At the same time, in the description of this application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0046] Reference Figure 1-10 The embodiment of the present application provides a rubber collecting device, comprising: a fixed bracket 1, a rubber collecting bowl 2 and a flip mechanism 3, the fixed bracket 1 is suitable for being fixed on a rubber tree 4 or near the rubber tree 4; the rubber collecting bowl 2 is used to collect rubber; the flip mechanism 3 is installed on the fixed bracket 1, and comprises a flip arm 31, a first lever 32 and a transmission assembly 34, the first lever 32 is suitable for being pushed and rotated by a rubber collecting vehicle 5, the first lever 32 is connected to the flip arm 31 through the transmission assembly 34, the rubber collecting bowl 2 is connected to the flip arm 31, the first lever 32 can drive the flip arm 31 to rotate through the transmission assembly 34, so that the flip arm 31 can drive the rubber collecting bowl 2 to flip to dump the rubber into the rubber collecting vehicle 5.

[0047] Specifically, the fixed bracket 1 is used to provide support for the rubber collecting bowl 2 and the turning mechanism 3. According to the actual installation environment, the fixed bracket 1 can be set to be directly fixed to the trunk of the rubber tree 4 or fixed to a position near the rubber tree 4, so that the rubber collecting bowl 2 can be close to the rubber tree 4 to collect the cut rubber. It is also easy for those skilled in the art to set a suitable fixed bracket 1 structure according to the specific installation position, and this solution will not be repeated.

[0048] The key point of the glue collecting device of the present scheme is to facilitate the automatic dumping of the glue in the glue collecting bowl 2 onto the glue collecting vehicle 5. Therefore, the core of the scheme is to set a flipping mechanism 3 which can drive the glue collecting bowl 2 to flip by the driving of the glue collecting vehicle 5. Specifically, a flipping arm 31, a first lever 32 and a transmission assembly 34 and other structures are set. When the glue collecting vehicle 5 passes by the glue collecting device, the glue collecting vehicle 5 can push the first lever 32 to rotate. Under the transmission action of the transmission assembly 34, the rotating first lever 32 will drive the flipping arm 31 to rotate, thereby causing the glue collecting bowl 2 containing glue installed on the flipping arm 31 to flip, thereby realizing automatic dumping of the glue into the glue collecting vehicle 5.

[0049] In order to ensure that the rubber collecting vehicle 5 has a sufficiently large rubber storage capacity, its height is generally set relatively high. Therefore, when pouring the rubber, it is necessary to rely on the flip arm 31 to lift the rubber collecting bowl 2 to the rubber pouring port on the top of the rubber collecting vehicle 5. Preferably, the rubber collecting bowl 2 is connected to the end of the flip arm 31 away from the transmission assembly 34. Since the flip arm 31 itself has a certain length, the rubber collecting bowl 2 will be driven to rise or fall during the flipping process of the flip arm 31. Connecting the rubber collecting bowl 2 to the end of the flip arm 31 away from the transmission assembly 34 can just provide the rubber collecting bowl 2 with the maximum up and down travel, so that at the rubber connection position corresponding to the rubber tree 4, the position of the rubber collecting bowl 2 can be as low as possible to adapt to the rubber collection of the low-cut rubber tree 4. At the same time, after flipping, the rubber collecting bowl 2 can be lifted high enough to ensure that the rubber can be poured accurately on the rubber collecting vehicle 5 smoothly.

[0050] The rubber collecting device of this scheme is fixed to the rubber tree 4 or near the rubber tree 4, so it can be understood that each rubber tree 4 needs to be installed with a corresponding rubber collecting device, and the collected rubber will be temporarily stored in the rubber collecting bowl 2. During the rubber collecting operation, the rubber collecting vehicle 5 drives in sequence near each rubber collecting device, and the rubber in multiple rubber collecting devices can be collected. Among them, the rubber collecting vehicle 5 can be manually driven, or it can be an unmanned vehicle equipped with an adaptive cruise system, on which a rubber storage bucket 52 capable of loading rubber is installed, and the collected rubber is installed in the rubber storage bucket 52. If an unmanned vehicle is used, automatic rubber collection can be achieved to the greatest extent. Even if the vehicle is manually driven to collect rubber, the driver does not need to frequently get off the vehicle to pour rubber. It only needs to drive the vehicle to pass through each rubber collecting device in sequence, so mechanized rubber collection is achieved, which greatly reduces manpower input. At the same time, since there is no need to pour rubber manually, the rubber collection efficiency is also effectively accelerated.

[0051] In addition, the glue collecting device provided in the present solution is only composed of simple structures such as a simple fixed bracket 1, a glue collecting bowl 2 and a flipping mechanism 3, and the flipping of the flipping mechanism 3 does not require a separate driving device, and can be directly driven by the running glue collecting vehicle 5. Therefore, the glue collecting device of the present solution obviously also has the advantages of simple structure, few failure points, durability, low cost, and suitability for wide promotion. The functional requirements for the glue collecting vehicle 5 are not complicated. It only needs to be equipped with a glue storage bucket 52 that can store rubber, and a structure that can adapt to the rotation of the first lever 32 of the flipping mechanism 3, such as a part of the vehicle body or a rod added to one side of the vehicle body, etc. There is no need to set up a complex high-cost, easily damaged structure such as a manipulator, so the cost of the entire glue collecting equipment is not high.

[0052] In some embodiments, a rotation center axis of the first lever 32 and a rotation center axis of the flip arm 31 are disposed perpendicular to each other.

[0053] Specifically, the rotation center axis of the first lever 32 is set to be perpendicular to the rotation center axis of the flip arm 31, so that the rubber collecting bowl 2 can be located on the left or right side of the rubber collecting vehicle 5 and flipped to dump the rubber onto the rubber collecting vehicle 5, avoiding interference between the driving direction of the rubber collecting vehicle 5 and the rubber collecting device, so that the rubber collecting vehicle 5 can drive in a straight line to complete the rubber collecting process without complicated turning, reversing and other operations.

[0054] Reference Figure 1 , it is assumed that the rubber collecting vehicle 5 moves in a straight line in the x-axis direction, the rubber tree 4 and the rubber collecting device are located on one side of the driving path of the rubber collecting vehicle 5, and the y-axis is perpendicular to the x-axis. During the driving process of the rubber collecting vehicle 5, when it contacts the first lever 32, it will gradually push the first lever 32 to rotate about the y-axis. Under the transmission of the transmission assembly 34, the flip arm 31 and the rubber collecting bowl 2 will rotate around the x-axis direction, so that the rubber can be dumped into the rubber collecting vehicle 5 from the left or right side of the rubber collecting vehicle 5.

[0055] In some embodiments, reference Figure 4-6 The transmission assembly 34 includes a driving bevel gear 341 and a driven bevel gear 342 which are respectively rotatably mounted on the fixed bracket 1, the driving bevel gear 341 is meshed with the driven bevel gear 342, the first shifting rod 32 is fixedly connected to the driving bevel gear 341, and the flip arm 31 is fixedly connected to the driven bevel gear 342.

[0056] The use of the active bevel gear 341 and the driven bevel gear 342, both of which are bevel gears, for meshing transmission can just achieve the perpendicularity between the input axis and the output axis, that is, meet the above-mentioned requirement of setting the rotation center axis of the first lever 32 to be perpendicular to the rotation center axis of the flip arm 31. In addition, the bevel gear transmission has the characteristics of stable transmission ratio and high transmission efficiency. Since the active bevel gear 341 and the driven bevel gear 342 are directly meshed, the energy loss during the transmission process is small, which can ensure that the flip arm 31 obtains sufficient rotational power; the bevel gear transmission structure is compact and occupies little space. In the application scenario of the glue collecting device with limited space, it helps to reduce the overall volume of the device and facilitates installation and fixation.

[0057] In some embodiments, reference Figure 7 and Figure 8The fixed bracket 1 includes a bracket body 11, a first adapter block 13, a second adapter block 14 and a third adapter block 15. The first adapter block 13 includes a first fixing plate 131, a second fixing plate 132 and a third fixing plate 133 which are sequentially connected in a "Z" shape. The first fixing plate 131 is fixedly connected to the bracket body 11. The second adapter block 14 is fixedly connected to a side of the third fixing plate 133 away from the second fixing plate 132, so that a first rotating installation space is formed between the second adapter block 14 and the second fixing plate 132; the third adapter block 15 is fixedly connected to the The second adapter block 14 is close to one side of the first adapter block 13, so that the third adapter block 15 is close to one side of the first adapter block 13 to form a second rotating installation space connected to the first rotating installation space; the active bevel gear 341 is rotatably installed in the first rotating installation space, and the rotating shaft of the active bevel gear 341 is rotatably connected to the first adapter block 13 and / or the second adapter block 14; the driven bevel gear 342 is rotatably installed in the second rotating installation space, and the rotating shaft of the driven bevel gear 342 is rotatably connected to the first adapter block 13 and / or the third adapter block 15.

[0058] The bracket body 11 serves as the basis of the entire fixed bracket 1 and provides stable support. The first adapter block 13 is fixedly connected to the bracket body 11 through its first fixing plate 131 . This connection method ensures the stability of the first adapter block 13 on the bracket body 11 .

[0059] The first adapter block 13 adopts a "Z"-shaped connection design, that is, the first fixed plate 131, the second fixed plate 132 and the third fixed plate 133 are connected in sequence at right angles or approximately right angles. This design not only makes the structure more compact, but also cleverly utilizes the space, providing the necessary conditions for the installation of the transmission assembly 34. The second adapter block 14 is fixedly connected to the side of the third fixed plate 133 away from the second fixed plate 132. The first rotating installation space formed between it and the second fixed plate 132 can just accommodate the active bevel gear 341, so as to provide a stable and reliable installation environment for the active bevel gear 341. Specifically, one end or both ends of the rotating shaft of the active bevel gear 341 can be installed on the second fixed plate 132 and / or the second adapter block 14. The third adapter block 15 is fixedly connected to a side of the second adapter block 14 close to the first adapter block 13 to form a second rotating installation space. This space is connected to the first rotating installation space and provides a position for the installation of the driven bevel gear 342. Since the driven bevel gear 342 needs to mesh with the active bevel gear 341, this layout can ensure the correct meshing relationship between the two.

[0060] The driving bevel gear 341 is rotatably mounted in the first rotating mounting space, and its rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the first adapter block 13 and / or the second adapter block 14 through appropriate bearings or sleeves. This connection mode enables the driving bevel gear 341 to rotate around its rotating shaft when driven by the first lever 32. The driven bevel gear 342 is rotatably mounted in the second rotating mounting space, and its rotating shaft is also rotatably connected to the first adapter block 13 and / or the third adapter block 15 through appropriate bearings or sleeves. The driven bevel gear 342 is meshed with the driving bevel gear 341. When the driving bevel gear 341 rotates, it can drive the driven bevel gear 342 to rotate, thereby driving the flip arm 31 to perform a flip operation.

[0061] In summary, the design of the fixed bracket 1 of the present embodiment fully considers the installation requirements and space utilization of the transmission component 34. Through the clever layout of the adapter blocks and the "Z"-shaped structure design, the compact installation and efficient transmission of the transmission component 34 in the vertical direction are achieved. This design not only improves the stability and reliability of the glue collection device, but also reduces the manufacturing cost and maintenance difficulty.

[0062] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 The rubber collecting bowl 2 comprises a rubber bowl bracket 22 and a rubber bowl body 21. The rubber bowl body 21 is mounted on the rubber bowl bracket 22. The rubber bowl bracket 22 is rotatably connected to the flip arm 31. The center of gravity of the rubber collecting bowl 2 is located below the rotation center axis of the rubber bowl bracket 22, so that during the flipping process of the flip arm 31, the bowl mouth of the rubber bowl body 21 is always facing upwards.

[0063] The fixing bracket 1 is also equipped with a bowl flipping rod 33, which is used to push the rubber collecting bowl 2 tightly at the glue pouring position, so that the continuously rotating flip arm 31 can drive the rubber collecting bowl 2 to flip and pour the rubber into the rubber collecting vehicle 5.

[0064] The rubber collecting bowl 2 is composed of a rubber bowl support 22 and a rubber bowl body 21. The rubber bowl body 21 is mounted on the rubber bowl support 22 and is responsible for actually carrying the rubber. This split design allows the rubber bowl body 21 to be easily replaced or cleaned, while the rubber bowl support 22 provides a stable support structure. It is particularly noteworthy that the rubber bowl support 22 is rotatably connected to the flip arm 31, and the center of gravity of the rubber collecting bowl 2 is designed to be located below the rotation center axis of the rubber bowl support 22. This design plays a key role in the flipping process of the flip arm 31. It ensures that no matter how the flip arm 31 rotates, the mouth of the rubber collecting bowl 2 is always facing upwards. This feature prevents the problem of rubber overflowing during the flipping process.

[0065] In order to achieve normal turning over and pouring glue in the correct position, a turning bowl top rod 33 is also installed on the fixed bracket 1. The top rod presses the glue collecting bowl 2 tightly at the glue pouring position. When the turning arm 31 rotates to the glue pouring position, the turning bowl top rod 33 will contact and press a certain part of the glue collecting bowl 2 (usually the bottom or side of the glue bowl bracket 22). At this time, if the turning arm 31 continues to rotate, the turning bowl top rod 33 will serve as a fulcrum, so that the rotational force of the turning arm 31 can drive the glue collecting bowl 2 to turn over together. Under the action of the turning bowl top rod 33, the glue collecting bowl 2 is turned over to a certain angle, so that the bowl mouth of the glue collecting bowl 2 is tilted, and the rubber is dumped into the glue collecting vehicle 5 due to gravity.

[0066] For ease of understanding, the specific operation of the glue collecting device in the above embodiment is described here:

[0067] 1. During the rubber collection process, the rubber is collected into the rubber collection bowl 2;

[0068] Second, when the rubber collecting vehicle 5 drives to the vicinity of the rubber collecting device, the first lever 32 is pushed, and the turning arm 31 is driven to rotate through the transmission assembly 34. During the rotation process, the rubber collecting bowl 2 is always facing upwards due to its own gravity;

[0069] 3. After the flip arm 31 rotates to a certain angle (such as flipping to the top of the glue storage hopper 52 of the hand glue cart), the flip bowl push rod 33 contacts and tightens the glue collecting bowl 2;

[0070] Fourth, the turning arm 31 continues to rotate, and under the action of the bowl turning rod 33, the rubber collecting bowl 2 is turned over to tilt the bowl mouth, and the rubber is poured from the rubber collecting bowl 2 into the rubber collecting vehicle 5 due to gravity.

[0071] Fifth, the flip arm 31 and the glue collecting bowl 2 are reset to prepare for the next glue collecting operation.

[0072] In summary, the rubber collecting device of this embodiment achieves efficient collection and dumping of rubber through the cleverly designed rubber collecting bowl 2, flip arm 31 and flip bowl top rod 33, while avoiding the problem of rubber accidentally pouring out of the rubber collecting vehicle 5 during the flipping process.

[0073] In addition, after the glue is collected, the glue bowl body 21 can be kept in an inverted state with the support of the flip bowl top rod 33, so as to prevent rainwater, leaves and dust from falling into the glue bowl body 21 and causing pollution inside the glue bowl body 21. When collecting glue next time, the glue collecting bowl 2 can be flipped over and reset.

[0074] Specifically, when resetting the glue collecting bowl 2, the glue collecting vehicle 5 can be directly driven to travel in the reverse direction along the glue collecting path to push the first lever 32 in the reverse direction, and the reverse rotating first lever 32 can be used to reversely drive the flip arm 31 and the glue collecting bowl 2 to flip and reset.

[0075] In some embodiments, the rubber bowl bracket 22 includes a rubber bowl support rod 222 and a rubber bowl seat 221 , one end of the rubber bowl support rod 222 is rotatably connected to the flip arm 31 , and the other end is fixedly connected to the rubber bowl support rod 222 , and the rubber bowl body 21 is fixed in the rubber bowl seat 221 .

[0076] The rubber bowl support rod 222 is connected between the rubber bowl seat 221 and the flip arm 31, so that the rubber bowl seat 221 and the flip arm 31 can maintain a large distance, so that the rubber bowl seat 221 has sufficient space for movement, avoiding interference and collision during the flipping process.

[0077] In some implementations, a flip paddle 223 is also fixed to the middle of the rubber bowl support rod 222. The flip paddle 223 is used to cooperate with the flip bowl top rod 33. The flip bowl top rod 33 presses the flip paddle 223 tightly, so that the flip arm 31 that continues to rotate can drive the rubber collecting bowl 2 to flip.

[0078] The flipping paddle 223 is fixed to the middle of the rubber bowl support rod 222. Its main function is to serve as a contact point for the flipping bowl top rod 33. When the flipping arm 31 rotates to a specific position (i.e., the glue pouring position), the flipping bowl top rod 33 will contact the flipping paddle 223 and tighten it. By tightening the flipping paddle 223, the flipping bowl top rod 33 can transmit the force of the flipping arm 31 to the rubber collecting bowl 2. Since the flipping paddle 223 is fixedly connected to the rubber bowl support rod 222, this force will cause the entire rubber collecting bowl 2 (including the rubber bowl body 21 and the rubber bowl seat 221) to flip along with the flipping arm 31.

[0079] The design of the flip paddle 223 enables the flip bowl top rod 33 to transmit the flipping force to the rubber collecting bowl 2 more directly and effectively, which helps to reduce the friction and resistance during the flipping process and improve the stability and reliability of the flipping. By fixing the flip paddle 223 in the middle of the rubber bowl support rod 222, it is possible to prevent the flip bowl top rod 33 from directly contacting the vulnerable parts of the rubber bowl body 21 or the rubber bowl seat 221, which helps to reduce damage caused by mechanical impact and extend the service life of the rubber collecting bowl 2. The position selection (middle) of the flip paddle 223 also takes into account the optimization of the spatial layout, which enables the flip bowl top rod 33 to effectively cooperate with the flip paddle 223 to complete the flipping action without interfering with other components.

[0080] In some embodiments, the flipping mechanism 3 also includes a first torsion spring 35, which includes a first torsion arm and a second torsion arm at an angle to each other; the flip bowl top rod 33 is rotatably installed on the fixed bracket 1, the first torsion arm is fixedly connected to the flip bowl top rod 33, and the second torsion arm is fixedly connected to the flip arm 31, so that the rotating flip arm 31 can push the flip bowl top rod 33 to rotate through the first torsion spring 35; the fixed bracket 1 is also provided with a first limit block 16 for limiting the rotation angle of the flip bowl top rod 33, and under the limiting action of the first limit block 16, the flip bowl top rod 33 can remain fixed in the glue pouring position to tighten the glue collecting bowl 2.

[0081] Specifically, the inventors found that the rubber collecting bowl 2 needs to be rotated to the top of the rubber collecting vehicle 5 before it can be turned upside down to avoid spilling the rubber during the process. In order to allow the rubber collecting bowl 2 to be rotated to the top of the rubber collecting vehicle 5 and then turned upside down, the bowl turning rod 33 needs to extend to the driving path of the rubber collecting vehicle 5, which leads to the risk of the rubber collecting vehicle 5 hitting the bowl turning rod 33.

[0082] In order to overcome the above technical problems, the present invention sets the bowl-turning top rod 33 to a rotatable state, and can be synchronously rotated to a position capable of turning the bowl when the flip arm 31 is rotated and swung out. Fig.10 In the state of step one, when the rubber collecting vehicle 5 starts to push against the first lever 32, the flip bowl top rod 33 rotates to a state deviating from the driving path of the rubber collecting vehicle 5, that is, when the rubber collecting vehicle 5 drives to contact the first lever 32, the rubber collecting vehicle 5 will not hit the flip bowl top rod 33. Based on the connection structure of the first torsion spring 35, in the process of the rubber collecting vehicle 5 pushing the first lever 32, the first torsion spring 35 includes a first torsion arm and a second torsion arm that form an angle with each other, and has the ability to store energy elastically. When the flip arm 31 rotates, it will drive the second torsion arm fixedly connected thereto to rotate together, and when the flip bowl top rod 33 has not rotated to the position restricted by the first limit block 16, the first torsion spring 35 will drive the flip bowl top rod 33 to rotate through the first torsion arm; when the flip bowl top rod 33 rotates to the position abutting the first limit block 16, it cannot continue to rotate. At this time, the flip arm 31 will rotate independently relative to the flip bowl top rod 33, and similarly, the rubber collecting bowl 2 will rotate relative to the flip bowl top rod 33; refer to Fig.10 In the state of step 2, at the glue pouring position, the bowl flipping push rod 33 can just press the glue collecting bowl 2 tightly, so that the glue collecting bowl 2 automatically flips over and pours the rubber into the glue collecting vehicle 5, that is, entering the glue collecting vehicle 5. Fig.10In the state of step three, the second torsion arm of the first torsion spring 35 rotates relative to the first torsion arm during the process, thereby storing elastic potential energy inside the first torsion spring 35. Therefore, in order to avoid the problem that the first torsion spring 35 releases elastic potential energy to push the flip arm 31 back to reset, causing the mouth of the glue collecting bowl 2 to face upward and be contaminated by rain, leaves or dust, the setting of the torsion of the first torsion spring 35 needs to ensure that after pouring the glue, under the gravity of the glue collecting bowl 2 itself, the elastic force of the first torsion spring 35 is not enough to push the flip arm 31 to rotate back to reset. Therefore, this embodiment can rotate the flip bowl top rod 33 to a position that avoids the driving path of the glue collecting vehicle 5 before collecting glue, so as to avoid the problem that the flip bowl top rod 33 is hit by the glue collecting vehicle 5. At the same time, during the glue collecting process, the function of rotating the flip arm 31 to drive the flip bowl top rod 33 to rotate to the top bowl position can also be used.

[0083] In the above embodiments, refer to Fig.10 , the specific workflow is as follows:

[0084] 1. The rubber collecting vehicle 5 passes by the rubber collecting device. During the passing process, the rubber collecting vehicle 5 pushes against the first lever 32 and drives it to rotate. The first lever 32 drives the flip arm 31 and the rubber collecting bowl 2 to rotate through the transmission assembly 34. The flip arm 31 drives the flip bowl top rod 33 to rotate through the first torsion spring 35.

[0085] Second, when the bowl-turning top rod 33 rotates to the position contacting the first limit block 16, under the limiting action of the first limit block 16, the bowl-turning top rod 33 remains fixed to tighten the rubber collecting bowl 2, and at this time, the first lever 32 continues to push the flip arm 31 to rotate;

[0086] 3. Under the action of the bowl turning rod 33, the rubber collecting bowl 2 rotates relative to the turning arm 31, so that the bowl mouth of the rubber collecting bowl 2 gradually tilts, and the rubber is poured from the rubber collecting bowl 2 into the rubber collecting vehicle 5 due to gravity.

[0087] Fourth, the glue collecting vehicle 5 is completely through the glue collecting device, and under the action of the gravity of the glue collecting bowl 2 itself, it is kept in an inverted state to avoid being contaminated by rain, leaves or dust.

[0088] In another embodiment, based on the structure of the first torsion spring 35, another use function can be realized. In this case, only the first torsion spring 35 with greater elastic potential energy is needed, so that after the rubber collecting vehicle 5 completely passes through the rubber collecting device, the first torsion spring 35 can overcome the weight of the rubber collecting bowl 2 and push the flip arm 31 to reset. Specifically, the flip bowl top rod 33 is rotatably mounted on the fixed bracket 1. This installation method allows the flip bowl top rod 33 to rotate freely within a certain range to adapt to the flipping action of the flip arm 31 and the rubber collecting bowl 2. The first torsion spring 35 includes a first torsion arm and a second torsion arm at an angle to each other, and has the ability to store elastic energy. When the flip arm 31 rotates, it will drive the second torsion arm fixedly connected thereto to rotate together. When the flip bowl top rod 33 has not rotated to the position restricted by the first limit block 16, the first torsion spring 35 will drive the flip bowl top rod 33 to rotate through the first torsion arm; when the flip bowl top rod 33 rotates to the position abutting against the first limit block 16, it cannot continue to rotate. At this time, the flip arm 31 will rotate independently relative to the flip bowl top rod 33, and similarly, the glue collecting bowl 2 will rotate relative to the flip bowl top rod 33. In the glue pouring position, the flip bowl top rod 33 The rod 33 can just push against the rubber collecting bowl 2, so that the rubber collecting bowl 2 automatically flips over and dumps the rubber into the rubber collecting vehicle 5; during this process, the second torsion arm of the first torsion spring 35 rotates relative to the first torsion arm, thereby storing elastic potential energy inside the first torsion spring 35. When the rubber is poured out, the rubber collecting vehicle 5 continues to move, the first lever 32 loses the constraint of the rubber collecting vehicle 5, and the elastic potential energy stored in the first torsion spring 35 is released, thereby pushing the flip arm 31 to rotate in the opposite direction and reset. Moreover, during the reset process of the flip arm 31, the first torsion spring 35 drives the flip bowl push rod 33 to reset, and the transmission assembly 34 drives the first lever 32 to reset. This design enables the rubber collecting bowl 2 and the first lever 32 to automatically return to the position of receiving the rubber without the need for an external power source.

[0089] In the above embodiment, the specific workflow is as follows:

[0090] 1. The rubber collecting vehicle 5 passes by the rubber collecting device. During the passing process, the rubber collecting vehicle 5 pushes against the first lever 32 and drives it to rotate. The first lever 32 drives the flip arm 31 and the rubber collecting bowl 2 to rotate through the transmission assembly 34. The flip arm 31 drives the flip bowl top rod 33 to rotate through the first torsion spring 35. The first torsion spring 35 stores elastic potential energy.

[0091] Second, when the bowl-turning top rod 33 rotates to the position contacting the first limit block 16, under the limiting action of the first limit block 16, the bowl-turning top rod 33 remains fixed to tighten the rubber collecting bowl 2, and at this time, the first lever 32 continues to push the flip arm 31 to rotate;

[0092] 3. Under the action of the bowl turning rod 33, the rubber collecting bowl 2 rotates relative to the turning arm 31, so that the bowl mouth of the rubber collecting bowl 2 gradually tilts, and the rubber is poured from the rubber collecting bowl 2 into the rubber collecting vehicle 5 due to gravity.

[0093] Fourth, the rubber collecting vehicle 5 completely passes through the rubber collecting device, the first lever 32 loses the constraint of the rubber collecting vehicle 5, the first torsion spring 35 releases the elastic potential energy, and the flip arm 31, the rubber collecting bowl 2, the first lever 32 and the flip bowl top rod 33 are reset to prepare for the next flipping action.

[0094] In some embodiments, reference Figure 4 The flip bowl push rod 33 includes a push rod member 331 and a push rod support 332. The push rod support 332 includes a first tube portion and a second tube portion vertically connected to each other. The first tube portion is rotatably connected to the fixed bracket 1, and the push rod member 331 is inserted and fixed to the second tube portion.

[0095] The push rod support 332 is composed of a first tube portion and a second tube portion that are vertically connected to each other, so that the push rod member 331 can be set parallel to the flip arm 31, and the rotation centers of the two can also coincide, so that the flip arm 31 can smoothly drive the push rod member 331 to rotate. At the same time, the first torsion spring 35 can be mounted on the first tube portion, and the first tube portion is used to provide rotation support for the first torsion spring 35.

[0096] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1-2 The fixed bracket 1 includes a positioning block 12 and a bracket body 11, and the positioning block 12 is suitable for being fixed on one side of the rubber tree 4; the bracket body 11 includes a first rod 111, a second rod 112 and a third rod 113, which are perpendicular to each other. The first rod 111 is horizontally arranged, and one end of the first rod 111 is fixedly connected to the end of the first rod 111 away from the positioning block 12; one end of the second rod 112 is fixedly connected to the end of the first rod 111 away from the positioning block 12, and the other end extends vertically upward; one end of the third rod 113 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the second rod 112, and the other end extends in a direction away from the side where the positioning block 12 is located, and the transmission assembly 34 is installed at one end of the third rod 113 away from the second rod 112.

[0097] The positioning block 12 is a key part of the fixing bracket 1, and is designed to be fixed to one side of the rubber tree 4, so that the entire turning mechanism 3 can be stably mounted on the rubber tree 4, which is convenient for collecting gum. The positioning block 12 can be tightly connected to the rubber tree 4 by bolts, clamps or other appropriate fixing devices to ensure its stability and safety.

[0098] The support body 11 is composed of a first rod 111, a second rod 112 and a third rod 113 which are perpendicular to each other. This design is stable and compact. The first rod 111 is used to support the transmission assembly 34 to keep a sufficient distance from the rubber tree 4, so as to provide sufficient activity space in the horizontal direction between the transmission assembly 34 and the rubber collecting bowl 2; the second rod 112 and the third rod 113 are used to support the transmission assembly 34 and the first rod 111 to be displaced in the vertical and horizontal directions, so that the flip arm 31 has enough flip space.

[0099] On the other hand, refer to Figure 1 The present embodiment provides a rubber collecting vehicle 5, which is used to collect rubber in cooperation with the above-mentioned rubber collecting device; the rubber collecting vehicle 5 includes a frame 51, a rubber storage bucket 52 and a lever assembly 53, wherein the rubber storage bucket 52 is mounted on the frame 51 for collecting rubber; the lever assembly 53 is mounted on the frame 51 and extends from one side to push the first lever 32 of the rubber collecting device to rotate.

[0100] The main function of the lever assembly 53 is to start the flipping action of the flip mechanism 3 by pushing the first lever 32 when the rubber collecting vehicle 5 moves to the rubber collecting position. The lever assembly 53 provided on the rubber collecting vehicle 5 is installed on the vehicle frame 51 and extends from one side. This design enables the lever assembly 53 to easily contact the first lever 32 of the rubber collecting device, thereby driving it to rotate.

[0101] The rubber collecting vehicle 5 of this embodiment can be self-propelled and can realize autonomous driving. It can also be a simple unpowered vehicle body, which can be connected to the rear of the towing vehicle 6 and dragged by it (i.e. Figure 1 The frame 51 is provided with wheels, and a suitable number of wheels can be provided according to actual needs.

[0102] The top of the glue storage hopper 52 is open, so that the glue storage bowl can be turned over to pour the glue into the hopper from above.

[0103] In some embodiments, reference Fig. 9The lever assembly 53 includes a lever fixing seat 531, a lever support seat 532, a second lever 533 and a second torsion spring 534. The lever fixing seat 531 is fixed to the vehicle frame 51. The lever support seat 532 is rotatably mounted on the lever fixing seat 531. The second torsion spring 534 includes a third torsion arm and a fourth torsion arm at an angle to each other. The third torsion arm is fixedly connected to the second lever 533. The fourth torsion arm is fixed to the lever fixing seat 531. The lever support seat 532 is provided with a The second limit block 535 is used to limit the rotation angle of the second lever 533. The second torsion spring 534 can push the lever support 532 to keep it against the second limit block 535, so that the second lever 533 is kept in a position that can cooperate to push the first lever 32; and when the force acting on the second lever 533 is greater than the elastic force of the second torsion spring 534, the second lever 533 can drive the lever support 532 to rotate around the lever fixing seat 531.

[0104] During driving, when the second lever 533 contacts the first lever 32, the spring torque provided by the second torsion spring 534 is greater than the rotation resistance of the first lever 32, so the second lever 533 can remain stable and easily push the first lever 32 to rotate. When encountering obstacles such as trees and stones, the backward force exerted by the obstacles on the second lever 533 exceeds the torque provided by the second torsion spring 534. At this time, the second lever 533 can drive the lever support 532 to overcome the torque of the second torsion spring 534 and rotate around the lever fixing seat 531, thereby avoiding the risk of the second lever 533 being broken.

[0105] In summary, the lever assembly 53 of the present solution is configured to be movable, and while providing the function of being able to normally push the first lever 32 to rotate, it can also automatically bypass obstacles to achieve a self-protection function.
