Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of agriculture, in particular to a side bud chopping machine for side buds. Background Art

[0002] Lateral buds, or axillary buds, are branches below the terminal bud of a plant. There are many techniques for removing lateral buds to ensure the growth of the terminal bud or to allow the lateral buds to grow as new plants.

[0003] For example, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN21782605U provides a device for cutting leaves and side buds from seedlings used for agarwood planting. The device mainly cuts side buds by using a cutting plate that can be rotated and adjusted to match the angle of the side buds, in combination with a cutting mechanism.

[0004] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN205961960U provides a tree trunk tiller, including a tiller body, a front end of which is provided with a blade for cutting, a sliding assembly for abutting against a tree trunk and maintaining a gap between the blade and the trunk, and an operating portion for holding the tiller body, which can improve the efficiency of tillering.

[0005] Chinese patent publication No. CN114885698A provides a robot for removing buds of honeysuckle. When the side buds of the main trunk of honeysuckle need to be trimmed, the mounting base is pushed close to the main trunk of the honeysuckle. When the plug plate contacts the honeysuckle, the two fixed plates can drive the two L-shaped scrapers to be close to the main trunk of the honeysuckle at the same time. Then the motor is started, so that the turntable drives the two L-shaped scrapers to move up and down periodically and synchronously through the transmission device, thereby automatically trimming the side buds on the main trunk of the honeysuckle, thereby avoiding the operator from bending over and improving the trimming efficiency.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] Based on the above technical features, the main effects of the side bud seedling cutter of the present invention can be clearly presented in the following embodiments.

[0040] See also Figures 1 to 3 , discloses a side bud seedling cutting machine according to an embodiment of the present invention, comprising: a machine body 1, and a first trimming device 2, a second trimming device 3, a linkage 4, a switch unit 5 and a turntable 6 all combined with the machine body 1.

[0041] Hereinafter, a Z direction (first direction), a Y direction (second direction), and an X direction which are perpendicular to each other are defined.

[0042] The first trimming device 2 includes: a first pressing plate 21, a first pressing plate actuating unit 22, a first tool unit 23, a slide rail 24, a slide seat 25, a slide seat actuating unit 26, a first supporting plate 27 and a second supporting plate 28. The first pressing plate actuating unit 22 is shown in FIG. Figure 8 .

[0043] The first pressing plate 21 is adjacent to the first supporting plate 27 in the Z direction. The first pressing plate actuating unit 22 is connected to the first pressing plate 21 and drives the first pressing plate 21 to be relatively close to or away from the first supporting plate 27 .

[0044] The slide rail 24 extends along the Y direction, the first support plate 27 is adjacent to the slide rail 24 in the Y direction, the second support plate 28 is connected to the slide 25 and is adjacent to the first support plate 27, the slide 25 is connected to the slide actuating unit 26, the slide actuating unit 26 drives the slide 25 to slide on the slide rail 24 and relatively approach or move away from the first support plate 27, and the first tool unit 23 is combined with the slide 25.

[0045] In more detail, the slide 25 has a through hole 251, and the first cutter unit 23 includes a plurality of first blades 231 and a plurality of first motors 232 that are respectively connected to each other. When viewed from the Y direction, the first blades 231 are disposed adjacent to and around the through hole 251, thereby forming a first cutting area around the through hole 251 when the slide 25 moves.

[0046] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, four planar disc-shaped first blades 231 are provided, and the axis lines of every two non-adjacent first blades 231 are respectively along the Z direction and the X direction. When viewed from the Y direction, the first blades 231 form a rectangle surrounding the through hole 251.

[0047] In actual implementation, the disk surface of the first blade 231 may also have an arc to form a rectangle with arc edges, and so on.

[0048] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The second trimming device 3 is adjacent to the first trimming device 2 , and the second trimming device 3 includes: a second pressing plate 31 , a second pressing plate actuating unit, a second tool unit 32 , a guiding groove 33 and a reference plate 34 .

[0049] The second pressing plate 31 is adjacent to the guiding groove 33 in the Z direction. The second pressing plate actuating unit is connected to the second pressing plate 31 . The second pressing plate actuating unit drives the second pressing plate 31 to be relatively close to or away from the guiding groove 33 . There is a guiding space inside the guiding groove 33 .

[0050] Preferably, the guiding space is gradually reduced along the Z direction and the Y direction, but it is not limited to that the guiding space has a continuous change in width in the entire Z direction and the Y direction.

[0051] The second tool unit 32 is arranged at the bottom of the guide space in the Z direction, and the second tool unit 32 includes two second blades 321. The second blades 321 are arranged at a second distance in the Y direction, for example, 40 cm to 45 cm, so that the two second blades 321 respectively form two second cutting areas separated by the second distance.

[0052] The second cutter unit 32 may include a second motor 322 and a connecting rod set 323. The second motor 322 is connected to one of the second blades 321 and connected to the other second blade 321 via the connecting rod set 323. The second motor 322 drives the two second blades 321 to move in conjunction with each other through the connecting rod set 323. Alternatively, there are two second motors 322 connected to the two second blades 321, respectively, and the two second motors 322 drive the two second blades 321 to move synchronously (not shown).

[0053] The reference plate 34 is disposed at a narrower end of the guide slot 33 in the Y direction. The collecting slot 35 is disposed below the guide slot 33 in the Z direction. The collecting slot 35 communicates with the narrower end of the guide space.

[0054] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the linkage 4 connects the first pressing plate 21 and the second pressing plate 31, the second pressing plate actuating unit is the first pressing plate actuating unit 22, and the first pressing plate actuating unit 22 is connected to the linkage 4. Figure 8 The switch unit 5 is signal-connected to the first pressing plate actuating unit 22 .

[0055] In actual implementation, the electronic components that need to be controlled, such as the first motor 232 , the slide actuating unit 26 , and the second motor 322 , can be operated synchronously or asynchronously with the first pressing plate 21 and the second pressing plate 31 through the switch unit 5 .

[0056] See also Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The turntable 6 includes a rotating surface 61, a fixed surface 62 and a positioning member 63. The rotating surface 61 can rotate relative to the fixed surface 62. In the Z direction, the rotating surface 61 is combined with the lower part of the machine body 1.

[0057] When the side bud chopping machine is used to treat a side bud A, the whole side bud chopping machine can be transported to the vicinity of the farmland by a truck. If the side bud chopping machine is equipped with a battery, the battery can supply the power required by the electronic components of the side bud chopping machine. If the side bud chopping machine does not have a battery, a generator can be transported together for power supply, or the power supply can be supplied by a truck, etc.

[0058] Since there are often farmlands on both sides of the road, in actual implementation, the side bud seedling cutter can be placed at the rear of a truck, the positioning piece 63 is first pulled out, and the rotating surface 61 is rotated relative to the fixed surface 62, so that the machine body 1 rotates to a required angle along with the rotating surface 61, and then faces the farmland to be processed, and then the positioning piece 63 is reinserted to position the rotating surface 61 relative to the fixed surface 62.

[0059] More specifically, assuming that the Y direction is facing away from the front of the truck and the farmland to be processed is located on the right side of the truck, the rotating surface 61 can be rotated counterclockwise so that the rotated Y direction faces the farmland or the front of the truck. In this way, the farmer does not need to go around the left side of the truck, but can directly put the side bud A just cut from the mother plant into the side bud seedling machine from the right side of the truck, or even from the farmland on the right, or take out the side bud A processed by the side bud seedling machine, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0060] When the farmland on the right side of the truck is processed and the farmland on the left side of the truck is processed, the side buds A can be processed by rotating the angle of the machine body 1 by the turntable 6, without moving the side bud cutting machine or the truck.

[0061] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 First, the lateral bud A is placed on the guide groove 33 , and the leaves of the lateral bud A support the lateral bud A above the guide groove 33 . Preferably, one end A1 of the lateral bud A is against the reference plate 34 .

[0062] The ground end A1 refers to the end of the lateral bud A that is connected to the mother plant when it is on the mother plant, and is also the end that will grow roots when it is subsequently planted. For the convenience of explanation, one end of the lateral bud A is fixedly referred to as the ground end A1 below, regardless of whether a part of the ground end A1 is cut off.

[0063] See also Figure 1 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 By operating the switch unit 5, the first pressing plate actuating unit 22 is actuated, and the first pressing plate actuating unit 22 drives the linkage member 4 to move, thereby causing the first pressing plate 21 and the second pressing plate 31 to move synchronously.

[0064] First, the second trimming device 3 is described. The second pressing plate 31 presses the side bud A downward along the Z direction into the guide space. The side bud A is guided by the guide groove 33 to concentrate the scattered branches and leaves into the center of the guide groove 33.

[0065] See also Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The first pressing plate 21 continues to press downward, and when the side bud A contacts the second blade 321 , the second blade 321 further performs a second trimming action on the side bud A.

[0066] The second trimming action means that the side bud A is trimmed along the second cutting area so that the parts of both ends of the side bud A passing through the second cutting area are removed by the second blade 321, and the side bud A retains the length of the second distance.

[0067] In actual implementation, if you want to adjust the location where the lateral bud A is cut, you can achieve it by adjusting the position of the reference plate 34. For example, if you want to keep more of the stem part and less of the leaf end, you can move the reference plate 34 closer to the positive Y direction.

[0068] By guiding the guide groove 33 to gather the branches and leaves of the lateral bud A, the size of the second blade 321 can be reduced, thereby reducing the burden of the second motor 322.

[0069] See also Figure 3 , Fig.11 and Fig.12 After the second trimming operation, the lateral bud A falls into the collecting tank 35, and can be moved to the first support plate 27 and the second support plate 28 manually or by a conveyor belt or other machine. Preferably, the lateral bud A is placed along the Y direction, and the ground end A1 faces the slide 25 and corresponds to the through hole 251.

[0070] When the subsequent procedures are not to be performed temporarily, the lateral buds A in the collecting tank 35 can be taken out and stored.

[0071] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Fig.13 and Fig.14 , the switch unit 5 is operated in the same manner, so that the first pressing plate 21 and the second pressing plate 31 are synchronously driven by the first pressing plate actuating unit 22, and in the part of the first trimming device 2, the first pressing plate 21 presses the side bud A onto the first supporting plate 27 along the Z direction, and the first supporting plate 27 and the second supporting plate 28 jointly support the side bud A.

[0072] The slide actuating unit 26 drives the slide 25 to slide a first distance, such as 10 cm to 20 cm, along the Y direction on the slide rail 24 toward the first support plate 27 , so that the second support plate 28 slides under the first support plate 27 and overlaps with the first support plate 27 .

[0073] At this time, the ground-facing end A1 of the side bud A passes through the through hole 251, and the first blade 231 forms the first cutting area extending the first distance along the Y direction, and the first cutting area is offset from the ground-facing end A1 of the side bud A and surrounds the ground-facing end A1, and the first motor 232 then drives the first blade 231 to perform a first trimming action on the side bud A.

[0074] The first trimming action means that the side bud A is trimmed from the ground end A1 along the first cutting area, so that the portion of the side bud A that passes through the first cutting area in the first distance is removed by the first blade 231 .

[0075] After completing the first trimming action, the slide actuating unit 26 drives the slide 25 to slide along the Y direction on the slide rail 24 away from the first support plate 27 by the first distance and then return to its original position.

[0076] At this time, the first support plate 27 and the second support plate 28 jointly support the lateral bud A again, and the lateral bud A that completes the first trimming action can be removed, and the ground end A1 of the lateral bud A is buried in the soil to a depth of the first distance for planting, which can increase the survival rate of the lateral bud A.

[0077] Through the first trimming device 2, for the lateral buds A that have been removed from the mother plant, the first blade 231 can appropriately remove the branches and leaves of the lateral buds A that are too extended to facilitate subsequent planting.

[0078] It should be particularly noted that in order to ensure that the sizes of the lateral buds A of each plant after treatment are consistent, a preferred embodiment of the present invention is to perform the second trimming action first and then the first trimming action, but the actual implementation is not limited thereto.

[0079] In addition, in the diagram of the present invention, only a single side bud A that has undergone the second trimming action and the first trimming action in sequence is depicted. In actual implementation, when the first side bud A has been processed through the second trimming action and placed on the collecting groove 35 or the first support plate 27 and the second support plate 28, the second side bud A can be placed on the guide groove 33.

[0080] At this time, by operating the switch unit 5, only the single first pressure plate actuating unit 22 is needed to synchronously drive the second pressure plate 31 to press down the second side bud A and the first pressure plate 21 to press the first side bud A through the linkage 4, so as to subsequently perform the first trimming action on the first side bud A and the second trimming action on the second side bud A respectively.

[0081] After the processing is completed, the first side bud A is taken out from the side bud cutting machine, and the second side bud A is placed on the first support plate 27 and the second support plate 28, and then the third side bud A can be placed on the guide groove 33, so that the first trimming action is performed on the second side bud A and the second trimming action is performed on the third side bud A.

[0082] In this way, the side bud cutting machine can simultaneously perform different treatments on two side buds A, which can improve the smoothness of the operation and enhance work efficiency.

[0083] Based on the description of the above embodiments, the operation, use and effects of the present invention can be fully understood. However, the above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. That is, simple equivalent changes and modifications made according to the scope of the patent application of the present invention and the content of the invention description are all within the scope of the present invention.
