Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ginger harvesting equipment, in particular to a lossless ginger harvesting machine. Background Art
[0002] Ginger is a perennial herb of the genus Zingiber of the Zingiberaceae family. Ginger is an economic crop with great development and utilization value. In addition to physiologically active substances such as gingerol and gingerol, it also contains protein, polysaccharides, vitamins and various trace elements. It combines nutrition, seasoning and health care. It has been regarded as a health product with both medicinal and edible properties by medical scientists since ancient times. It has various health functions such as dispelling cold, removing dampness, warming the stomach, and accelerating blood circulation. Ginger is mostly reproduced asexually through ginger pieces with buds. Mature ginger plants are divided into above-ground stem plants and underground stem tubers. When harvesting ginger, it is necessary to manually hold the above-ground stem plants, pull out the tubers with force, then remove the soil on the surface of the tubers, and cut and separate the tubers from the plants to complete the harvest of ginger. This harvesting method is often more laborious, so People have invented a ginger harvester. Existing ginger harvesters are mostly driven by agricultural tractors and driven by a hydraulic system to harvest ginger. The hydraulic system drives the hydraulic motor to operate, and the hydraulic motor drives the synchronous pulley group to operate. As the ginger harvester moves, the two synchronous pulley groups clamp the ginger plants along the way. The inclined synchronous pulley group uses the front and rear height difference to pull the ginger out of the ground to achieve the ginger harvesting work. The traditional ginger harvester uses the height difference to pull out ginger. A large amount of soil will adhere to the surface of the ginger block, which requires manual secondary cleaning. The softness of the soil in different regions is different. For areas with hard soil, this hard pulling method not only has poor effect, but also seriously breaks the ginger plant and damages the surface of the ginger block, which is very inconvenient. For this reason, we propose a non-destructive ginger harvester. Summary of the invention
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the existing defects and provide a lossless ginger machine. The machine is provided with a soil loosening mechanism.

The connecting shaft 5, the cutting knife 6 and the screw rod 7 form a seedling cutting area, which can quickly separate the ginger pieces from the plants. Before pulling out the ginger, the soil in the area where the ginger is located can be loosened by swinging the loosening frame up and down, so that the ginger can be pulled out more easily and completely, and the surface of the ginger can be preliminarily cleaned. A conveying mechanism is also provided, which can directly deliver the ginger to the seedling cutting process after pulling out the ginger. During this period, the soil on the surface of the ginger piece can be removed to the maximum extent by shaking the rubber roller.
[0019] The working principle of a lossless ginger extractor provided by the present invention is as follows: when harvesting ginger, the agricultural tractor drives the ginger extractor to move so that the ginger extractor is located above the ginger plant. The tractor controls the height of the ginger extractor so that the loosening shovel 33 is embedded in the soil. The tractor moves, driving the ginger extractor to move. As the ginger extractor moves, the loosening shovel 33 separates the soil above with the ginger plant from the soil at depth. The hydraulic system of the tractor operates, and the hydraulic oil enters the hydraulic motor 39 through the oil pipe, driving the output shaft of the hydraulic motor 39 to rotate. The output shaft of the hydraulic motor 39 drives the rotating shaft 34 to rotate through the commutator, and the eccentric wheel 35 also rotates accordingly. The upper connecting rod 36 also moves with the rotation of the eccentric wheel 35. When the eccentric part of the eccentric wheel 35 rotates to the upper side, the upper connecting rod 36 moves to the upper side. The upper connecting rod 36 pulls the connecting column 37 to move upward, and the lower connecting rod 31 also deflects upward, driving the loosening frame 32 to deflect upward synchronously, turning up the soil with the ginger plant. When the eccentric part of the eccentric wheel 35 rotates to the bottom, the upper connecting rod 36 pushes the connecting column 37 to move downward, and the lower connecting rod 31 also deflects downward, driving the loosening frame 32 to deflect downward synchronously, and so on. The soil is loosened by the up and down swinging of the loosening frame 32, and the ginger block is initially separated from the soil, reducing the soil attached to the surface of the ginger block, and making it easier to pull out the ginger block. At this time, the hydraulic oil drives the hydraulic motor 2 44 to operate, and the output shaft of the hydraulic motor 2 44 drives the synchronous pulley 42 below to rotate, because the synchronous pulleys 42 located inside the same frame 41 are all driven by the synchronous belt 4 3 transmission connection, so the synchronous belt 43 also rotates accordingly. With the operation of the synchronous pulley group, the rear ends of the two synchronous pulley groups bring the ginger plants along the way together. With the rotation of the synchronous pulley group and the movement of the machine body, the gap between the two synchronous pulley groups gradually narrows, clamping the ginger plants that are brought together. Because the frame 41 is an inclined frame with a high front and a low back, with the rotation of the synchronous pulley group, the synchronous pulley group slowly moves up with the ginger plants until the ginger plants are pulled out of the ground. With the continued rotation of the synchronous pulley group, the ginger plants are transported to the cutter 6. The cutter 6 rotates with the rotation of the synchronous pulley 42 above. The two cutters 6 cooperate to cut and separate the ginger vines from the ginger pieces. During this period, when the synchronous pulley group moves the ginger plants toward the cutter 6 The ginger piece under the ginger plant contacts the rubber roller 452, and the hydraulic oil drives the hydraulic motor three 456 to operate. The output shaft of the hydraulic motor three 456 drives the rotating shaft two 454 to rotate, and the cam 455 also rotates accordingly. When the raised part of the cam 455 contacts the upper end of the sliding column 451, the cam 455 squeezes the sliding column 451, causing the sliding column 451 to move downward, and the rubber roller 452 also moves downward. The spring 453 is compressed under force. When the raised part of the cam 455 leaves the upper end of the sliding column 451, the upper end of the sliding column 451 is not subjected to force, and the spring 453 is expanded without force, driving the sliding column 451 and the rubber roller 452 back to their original positions. This reciprocating process causes the rubber roller 452 to shake up and down. Since the raised directions of the two longitudinally adjacent cams 455 are opposite,Therefore, the shaking directions of two adjacent rubber rollers 452 are also opposite, and multiple rubber rollers 452 shake simultaneously to form a vibration area. When the ginger piece enters the vibration area along with the synchronous pulley group, the continuously shaking rubber rollers 452 shake off the dirt on the surface of the ginger piece, which can remove the dirt on the surface of the ginger piece to the maximum extent. When the cutting height needs to be changed, just turn the knob to drive the screw rod 7 to rotate. When the screw rod 7 rotates forward, the cutter 6 moves up, and when the rod 7 rotates reversely, the cutter 6 moves down, which can quickly adjust the cutting height of the ginger seedling.
[0020] It is worth noting that the hydraulic motor 1 39 disclosed in the above embodiments is a GM5 hydraulic motor, the hydraulic motor 2 44 is an OMV-800 hydraulic motor, the hydraulic motor 3 456 is a BM1-80 hydraulic motor, and the external hydraulic pump station controls the operation of the hydraulic motor 1 39, the hydraulic motor 2 44 and the hydraulic motor 3 456 using methods commonly used in the prior art.
