Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of agricultural machinery harvesting technology, and in particular relates to a fully automatic cabbage harvesting vehicle. Background Technology
[0002] Chinese cabbage is one of the main vegetables in most parts of my country, ranking first in terms of cultivation area and consumption among all types of vegetables. Chinese cabbage is eaten for its tender heads, rosette leaves, or flower stalks, and can be stir-fried, used in soups, or pickled, making it an indispensable vegetable on the tables of Chinese residents. In the winter of northern my country, Chinese cabbage is a frequent guest on the table, hence the saying "winter cabbage is as delicious as bamboo shoots." Harvesting Chinese cabbage is generally done manually, which is inefficient and labor-intensive. Furthermore, after harvesting the cabbage, the land needs to be tilled again to prepare for planting the next crop. If the tilling work were done during the cabbage harvest, work efficiency could be greatly improved and labor intensity reduced.
[0003] There are some cabbage harvesting vehicles in the existing technology, but most of these cabbage harvesting vehicles can only harvest cabbage from the ground. They cannot clean the outer rotten leaves or remove the roots of the cabbage, and cannot achieve automated cleaning and packaging. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0029] To make the objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below.
[0030] like Figures 1-2As shown, the fully automatic cabbage harvesting vehicle includes a vehicle body 1, a clamping and conveying module 2, a rotating conveying module 3, a root-cutting module 4, and a waste leaf removal module 5. The vehicle body 1 includes a frame 101, front wheels 102, rear wheels 103, a waste leaf collection box 104, and a bagging bracket 105. The front wheels 102 and rear wheels 103 are located below the frame 101. The power structure of the vehicle body 1 can use existing power mechanisms, which will not be described again. The waste leaf collection box 104 is installed below the waste leaf removal module 5 and is used to centrally collect cabbage roots and waste leaves, increasing the added value of the cabbage and improving the income of growers. The bagging bracket 105 is located at the rear end of the frame 101 and is used to pack the processed cabbage.
[0031] The clamping and conveying module 2 is located at the front end of the vehicle body 1. After the clamping and conveying module pulls out the cabbage, it is sent into the rotating conveying module 3 installed on the top of the vehicle body 1. The rotating conveying module 3 rotates the cabbage so that the root of the cabbage faces the root cutting module 4 and sends it into the root cutting module 4. The root cutting module 4 is located at the rear end of the vehicle body 1. After cutting off the root of the cabbage, it is sent into the waste leaf removal module 5. The waste leaf removal module 5 is installed on the vehicle body and located on one side of the root cutting module 4. The waste leaf removal module 5 removes the waste leaves on the outside of the cabbage.
[0032] The clamping and conveying module 2, the rotating conveying module 3, and the root-cutting module 4 of this invention are all provided in two sets, so that two rows of cabbages can be harvested at the same time. The rotating conveying module 3 has a multi-station design structure, which can continuously receive the cabbages transmitted by the clamping and conveying module 2 and send the cabbages into the root-cutting module 4. The waste leaf removal module 5 is set between the two sets of root-cutting modules 4. After the root-cutting module 4 cuts off the root of the cabbage, it pushes it into the waste leaf removal module 5 to remove the waste leaves on the outside of the cabbage. Finally, the processed cabbage is sent into a packing bag.
[0033] The above provides a brief introduction to the structure and working process of the fully automatic cabbage harvester, but does not provide a detailed explanation of the structure of each module. The following section, with reference to the accompanying drawings, provides a detailed introduction to the specific structure and working process of each module.
[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, the clamping and conveying module 2 includes a clamping and conveying module base 205 disposed at the front end of the frame 101. The clamping and conveying module base 205 is connected to a crossbar 204 via a crossbar hinge 203. Two V-shaped connectors 202 are disposed at both ends of the crossbar 204. Each V-shaped connector 202 is connected to two arc-shaped grippers 201 on both sides. A first cylinder 207 is disposed between the clamping and conveying module base 205 and the crossbar 204. The cylinder body of the first cylinder 207 is disposed on the clamping and conveying module base 205. The piston rod of the first cylinder 207 is connected to the crossbar 204 via a first cylinder connector 206.
[0035] Four first conveyor belt assemblies are spaced apart on the clamping and conveying module base 205, with two first conveyor belt assemblies forming a group for conveying cabbages gripped by the arc-shaped grippers 201. Each conveyor belt assembly includes a vertical pulley support 211 fixedly mounted on the clamping and conveying module 2. Vertical pulley shafts 209 are provided at both ends of the vertical pulley support 211, and vertical pulleys 212 are fitted onto the vertical pulley shafts 209. Vertical conveyor belts 208 are fitted onto the two vertical pulleys 212. One of the vertical pulley shafts 209 is connected to the output shaft of a first motor 210 and is driven to rotate by the first motor 210.
[0036] Two second transmission belt assemblies are spaced apart on the clamping and conveying module base 205. The second transmission belt assemblies are used to relay the cabbage conveyed by the first transmission belt assembly. The second transmission belt assembly includes a horizontal pulley support 214 on the clamping and conveying module base 205. The two ends of the horizontal pulley shaft 216 pass through the horizontal pulley support 214. The horizontal pulley 217 is sleeved on both ends of the horizontal pulley shaft 216. The horizontal conveyor belt 215 is sleeved on the horizontal pulley 217. The end of the horizontal pulley shaft 216 is provided with a first gear 218. The clamping and conveying module base 205 is provided with a second motor bracket 213. The second motor bracket 213 is provided with a second motor 220. The output shaft of the second motor 220 is connected to the second motor gear 219. The second motor gear 219 meshes with the first gear 218 and drives it to rotate.
[0037] Two arc-shaped grippers 201 clamp the cabbage, and then the piston rod of the first cylinder 207 extends forward to lift the crossbar 204 upward. After the arc-shaped grippers 201 pull the cabbage out of the field, the cabbage will enter between the two first transmission components. The first motor 210 rotates, thereby driving the vertical pulley shaft 209 and the vertical pulley 212 to rotate. The rotation of the vertical pulley 212 drives the vertical transmission belt to rotate. The two vertical transmission belts send the clamped cabbage into the second transmission component. The cabbage is placed flat on the horizontal conveyor belt 215 of the second transmission component. The second motor 220 drives the horizontal conveyor belt 215 to move and send the cabbage into the rotary conveyor module 3.
[0038] like Figure 4As shown, the rotary conveying module 3 includes a circular base 301, on which a third motor 302 is mounted. The output shaft of the third motor 302 is connected to a third motor gear 303. The third motor gear 303 meshes with a second gear 304. A base 305 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the second gear 304. Two cross-shaped horizontal plates 311 are mounted on the base 305. Four side plates 306 are mounted on the sides of the horizontal plates 311. The four side plates 306 and the two horizontal plates 311 form four equally divided areas. Each area is equipped with a set of pushing devices. A small cam 309 is mounted in the central area surrounded by the four pushing devices. The large end of the small cam 309 is on the inside and the small end is on the outside. The position of the small cam 309 is always fixed. The central axis of the base circle of the small cam 309, the central axis of the second gear 304, and the central axis of the circular base 301 are collinear. The four pushing devices rotate around the small cam 309 under the action of the third motor 302, and the small end of the small cam 309 drives the pushing devices to work.
[0039] The pushing device includes a stepped shaft seat 312 fixedly mounted on the horizontal plate 311. The stepped shaft seat 312 has a central hole and a slidable stepped shaft 308 inside the central hole. Push plates 313 are provided at both ends of the stepped shaft 308. A spring 307 is provided between the push plate 313 near the small cam 309 and the stepped shaft seat 312.
[0040] The cabbage first enters a station between the two side plates 306. The third motor 302 then operates. The output shaft of the third motor 302, through the third motor gear 303 and its meshing second gear 304, drives the entire base 305 to rotate, thereby rotating the horizontal plate 311 and the side plates 306. The cabbage rotates with the horizontal plate 311. When the cabbage rotates to the small end of the small cam 309, its root faces the root-cutting module 4. Simultaneously, the small end of the small cam 309 presses against the stepped shaft 308 of the pushing device. The pusher 313 on the side of the stepped shaft 308 near the cabbage pushes the cabbage into the root-cutting module 4. After the stepped shaft 308 pushes the cabbage out, it resets under the action of the spring 307. Each rotary conveyor module 3 has four stations, continuously receiving cabbages from the clamping conveyor module 2 and automating their rotary conveying.
[0041] like Figure 5As shown, the root cutting module 4 includes a square base 403 fixedly mounted on the vehicle body 1. A second cylinder 402 is fixedly mounted on the square base 403, and a cutter 401 is provided at the output end of the second cylinder 402. A fourth motor 410 is fixedly mounted on the square base 403. The output shaft of the fourth motor 410 is connected to the center of the large end of the large cam 409. A connecting rod shaft 408 is connected to the center of the small end of the large cam 409. The other end of the connecting rod shaft 408 is connected to the connecting rod 407. The other end of the connecting rod 407 is connected to the lower end of the slider connector 406. The upper end of the slider connector 406 is connected to the slider 404. The slider 404 is mounted on the square base 403, and a push rod 405 is installed above the slider 404.
[0042] After the cabbage enters the root cutting module 4, the root of the cabbage is aligned with the cutter 401. The second cylinder 402 drives the cutter 401 to move upward to cut off the root of the cabbage. After the root is cut off, the fourth motor 410 works. The cam-connecting rod 407 mechanism, composed of a cam, connecting rod 407 and slider 404, drives the push rod 405 to work. The push rod 405 pushes the cabbage into the waste leaf removal module 5.
[0043] like Figure 6 As shown, the waste leaf removal module 5 includes a waste leaf removal module base 516 fixedly mounted on the vehicle body 1. A fifth motor 511 and an end bracket 502 are mounted on the waste leaf removal module base 516. The output shaft of the fifth motor 511 is connected to a fifth motor 511 gear 501. The fifth motor 511 gear 501 meshes with a large gear 513 fixedly mounted in the middle of the end bracket 502.
[0044] An arc-shaped bracket 506 is fixedly installed on one side opposite to the end bracket 502. Two impeller shafts and four vertical long screw rods 515 are arranged between the arc-shaped bracket 506 and the end bracket 502. The impeller shafts are located between the two vertical long screw rods 515. The impeller shafts and the vertical long screw rods 515 form an arc-shaped structure. The end of the vertical long screw rod 515 near the large gear 513 is connected to a worm gear 504. The impeller shaft 505 passes through the end bracket 502. Impeller gears 503 and small gears 512 are respectively arranged on the impeller shafts 505 at both ends of the end bracket. The small gear 512 meshes with the large gear 513 and rotates under the drive of the large gear 513. The impeller gear 503 meshes with the worm gear 504 and drives it to rotate. Impellers 514 are arranged at intervals on the impeller shaft.
[0045] On the opposite side of the arc-shaped bracket 506, a tail arc-shaped bracket 519 is provided. A vertical short lead rod 517 is provided between the tail arc-shaped bracket 519 and the arc-shaped bracket. One end of the vertical short lead rod 517 is connected to the vertical long lead rod 515 and the impeller shaft 505 respectively through a universal joint coupling 507. The other end of the vertical short lead rod 517 passes through the tail arc-shaped bracket 519.
[0046] A transverse lead screw support 521 and a sixth motor 510 are provided on the waste leaf removal module base 516. The two ends of the transverse lead screw 520 are installed in the transverse lead screw support 521. A transverse lead screw gear 509 is provided at one end of the transverse lead screw 520 and meshes with the sixth motor gear 508. The sixth motor gear 508 is connected to the output shaft of the sixth motor 510. A lead screw nut 518 is sleeved on the transverse lead screw 520. A tail arc-shaped bracket 519 is connected to the lead screw nut 518.
[0047] The cabbage enters the arc-shaped structure formed by the impeller shaft and the vertical long lead screw 515. Then, the fifth motor 511 works, driving the impeller shaft to rotate through the meshing of the large gear 513, small gear 512, impeller gear 503, and worm gear 504. The impeller wheel 514 on the impeller shaft rotates with the impeller shaft, peeling off the waste leaves from the surface of the cabbage. The cabbage after the waste leaves are peeled off will enter the vertical short lead screw. The sixth motor 510 works to drive the horizontal lead screw 520 to rotate. The horizontal lead screw 520 drives the lead screw nut 518 to swing left and right. The left and right movement of the lead screw nut 518 will drive the left and right movement of the rear arc-shaped bracket 519. The left and right movement of the rear arc-shaped bracket 519 will drive the rear of the waste leaf removal module 5 to swing left and right. The multi-bag assembly bracket 105 is fixed at the rear of the vehicle body 1 to achieve continuous bagging.
[0048] The fully automatic cabbage harvesting vehicle of this invention is integrated in one unit, which is highly efficient and coordinated. It integrates functions such as cabbage pulling, root cutting, waste leaf removal, bagging, and collection of cabbage roots and waste leaves into one vehicle. The modules and mechanisms are designed according to the process, so that each module and mechanism can work together efficiently.
