AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies are prone to damaging the fruit when picking thin-skinned, juicy small berries such as blueberries, honeysuckle berries, blackcurrants, raspberries, and currants, and the picking work is extensive and difficult to collect efficiently.
A smart, adaptive branch harvesting and collection device with berries was designed, including a harvesting and conveying mechanism, a collection and storage mechanism, and a cleaning and moisturizing mechanism. The branch is cut by a circular saw blade, the branch is conveyed by a toggle device, and the branch is cleaned by spraying water from a nozzle and shaken by a support to avoid forcibly pulling and damaging the berries.
It achieves damage-free harvesting, improves the integrity of berries and harvesting efficiency, ensures that berries are not easily damaged during collection, and has a good cleaning effect and significant impurity separation effect.
