[0045] In this embodiment, the worker holds the mature cherry tomatoes in hand, cuts the whole string of tomatoes from the stem, and hangs the whole string of tomatoes in the sliding base 302, the sliding base 302 is vertically moved along the interior of the mounting base 301 under the influence of the weight of the tomatoes, and the threaded rod 303 is rotated at the same time, the rotating threaded rod 303 drives the rotating base 304 to rotate synchronously through the transmission belt 305, so as to close to the outside of the sliding base 302 and fix the top of the whole string of tomatoes.

[0046] In the above scheme, in order to pick the single tomatoes on the whole string of tomatoes from the stem one by one, as shown in Figure 9 , the specific operation is as follows.

[0047] Referring to Figures 2 to 3 , Figures 5 to 8 In a preferred embodiment, the cutting mechanism 4 further comprises a pushing plate 403 fixed to the bottom of each first ring cutter 401, a pushing rod 404 is arranged on the two sides of the lifting moving table 2, the pushing rod 404 and all the pushing plates 403 on the same side are in surface contact, a set of electric push rods 405 is symmetrically installed on the two sides of the lifting moving table 2, and the output end of each set of electric push rods 405 is fixedly connected with the pushing rod 404 on the same side.

[0048] In the embodiment, when the rotating base 304 rotates and is attached to the sliding base 302, the first ring cutter 401 is synchronously attached to the second ring cutter 402, at this time, the electric push rod 405 is started, the output end is extended outwardly and drives the push rod 404 to move synchronously, the moving push rod 404 drives the first ring cutter 401 and the second ring cutter 402 to move vertically through the push plate 403, and the moving cuts off the single tomato on the stem; wherein the first spring 306 is vertically fixed between the top of each sliding base 302 and the mounting base 301, the second spring 406 is vertically fixed between each push plate 403 and the sliding base 302, and the first elastic member 409 is fixedly connected between each second ring cutter 402 and the interlayer of the rotating base 304; as the tomato on the stem falls off, the sliding base 302 loses the effect of gravity and is pushed by the first spring 306 to move upwardly, the rotating base 304 is synchronously reset to rotate as the sliding base 302 moves, the second ring cutter 402 and the first ring cutter 401 are disengaged, the first ring cutter 401 loses the effect of the limiting force and is pulled by the second spring 406 to move, and the second ring cutter 402 loses the effect of the limiting force and is pulled by the first elastic member 409 to move inwardly of the rotating base 304.

[0049] Further, it is additionally explained that the fast-connection groove 407 is formed in the side surface of each push plate 403, the fast-connection member 408 is fixed to the bottom outside of each second ring cutter 402, the fast-connection member 408 is engaged in the fast-connection groove 407 when the first ring cutter 401 and the second ring cutter 402 are closed, and the first ring cutter 401 and the second ring cutter 402 move synchronously as the output shaft of the electric push rod 405 is extended.

[0050] In the above scheme, considering that the bare stem that stays in the sliding base 302 after the tomato with stem is cut off needs to be disposed, the specific operation is as follows.

[0051] Referring to Figures 5 to 8 In a preferred embodiment, the blanking mechanism 5 comprises a plurality of rows of top pins 501 fixed horizontally in each sliding base 302, the side surface of each sliding base 302 is slidingly installed with a blanking plate 502, the top pin 501 penetrates through the blanking plate 502, the top side surface of each rotating base 304 is further fixed with a magnetic push rod 503, and the magnetic push rod 503 is magnetically attracted to the top of the blanking plate 502.

[0052] In the embodiment, when the worker places the top of the stem tomato into the inside of the sliding base 302, the thimble 501 is inserted into the stem of the tomato, thereby preliminarily fixing the stem tomato, and when the rotating base 304 is closed to the outside of the sliding base 302, the magnetic rod 503 at the top of the rotating base 304 is synchronously moved and adsorbed to the top of the blanking plate 502 while the rotating base 304 rotates; when the rotating base 304 is reset, the synchronously moved magnetic rod 503 pulls the blanking plate 502, so that the blanking plate 502 moves horizontally along the outside of the thimble 501 until the magnetic rod 503 continues to move and is separated from the blanking plate 502, and the stem of the tomato is pushed away from the thimble 501 while the blanking plate 502 moves horizontally, so that the stem is separated from the thimble 501; wherein the second elastic member 504 is fixedly connected between each blanking plate 502 and the sliding base 302, and the blanking plate 502 is pulled by the second elastic member 504 at the moment when the magnetic rod 503 is separated from the blanking plate 502, so that the blanking plate 502 moves back.

[0053] It should be noted that the top of the stem of the tomato needs to be lower than the sliding base 302 when the worker places the stem tomato into the sliding base 302, so as to prevent the stem of the tomato from affecting the contact between the magnetic rod 503 and the blanking plate 502.

[0054] When the magnetic rod 503 pulls the blanking plate 502 to the limit position, the thimble 501 is retracted into the blanking plate 502 and is no longer protruding, at this moment, the stem is separated from the thimble 501 and falls down, and at this moment, the second elastic member 504 is in the maximum deformation state, the magnetic rod 503 cannot continue to pull the blanking plate 502, and finally the two are separated, and each component is reset.

[0055] Working principle: in use, the operator stands on the top of the lifting moving table 2, remotely controls the lifting moving table 2 to move along the top of the slide rail 1, and changes the height of the operator at the same time, holds the mature cherry tomatoes in hands, cuts the whole string of tomatoes from the stems, hangs the whole string of tomatoes in the sliding base 302, at this time the top pin 501 is inserted into the inside of the stem of the tomato, thereby preliminarily fixing the stem tomato, the sliding base 302 is vertically moved along the inside of the mounting base 301 under the influence of the weight of the tomato, the threaded rod 303 is rotated at the same time, the rotating base 304 is synchronously rotated by the transmission belt 305, thereby being closed to the outside of the sliding base 302 to complete the fixation of the top of the whole string of tomatoes, at the same time when the rotating base 304 is rotated and closed to the sliding base 302, the first ring cutter 401 and the second ring cutter 402 are synchronously closed, at this time the electric push rod 405 is started, the output end is extended outward and the push long rod 404 is synchronously moved, the moving push long rod 404 synchronously drives the first ring cutter 401 and the second ring cutter 402 to vertically move through the push plate 403, at the same time the single tomato on the stem is cut off, the cut tomato falls into the inside of the receiving box 6 for collection; at this time, as the tomatoes on the stem decrease, the sliding base 302 loses the influence of gravity and is pushed by the first spring 306 to upwardly reset, at the same time when the sliding base 302 resets, the rotating base 304 resets at the same time, as the rotating base 304 rotates, the second ring cutter 402 and the first ring cutter 401 are disengaged, the first ring cutter 401 loses the influence of the limiting force and is reset by the second spring 406, at the same time the second ring cutter 402 loses the influence of the limiting force and is reset by the first elastic member 409 to the inside of the rotating base 304; and when the rotating base 304 is closed to the outside of the sliding base 302, the magnetic push rod 503 on the top of the rotating base 304 is synchronously moved and is attracted to the top of the discharging plate 502; when the rotating base 304 resets, the synchronously moved magnetic push rod 503 pulls the discharging plate 502, the discharging plate 502 is horizontally moved along the outside of the top pin 501, until the magnetic push rod 503 continues to move and is disengaged from the discharging plate 502, at the same time the discharging plate 502 pushes the stem on the outside of the top pin 501 to disengage the stem from the top pin 501, and the whole work flow is completed.
