The linkage block 263 is rotatably mounted on the chain 250 by a common method such as a rotating shaft. One end of the reinforcing plate 262 close to the chain 250 is connected to the linkage block 263, and can be specifically mounted on the linkage block 263 by a connecting shaft. In this embodiment, the plurality of driving tongues 260 are distributed at equal distances.

[0055] Each driving tongue 260 further includes an elastic member, which is mounted on the rotating shaft. The driving tongue 260 can rotate between a first position and a second position when driven by the elastic member. When the driving tongue 260 is at the first position, the reinforcing sheet 262 is clamped between the limiting plate 242 and the chain 250. When the driving tongue 260 is at the second position, the reinforcing sheet 262 is separated from the limiting plate 242 and partially extends out of the limiting groove 270. The chain 250 brings the driving tongue 260 to the first position and the second position during the rotation process.

[0056] In this embodiment, the two second conveying components 230 are conveying structures such as conveyor belts, which will not be described in detail here.

The specific structure may include a driver, a cutter disc and a plurality of blades. The cutter disc is installed on the output shaft of the driver, and the plurality of blades are respectively installed on the cutter disc for cutting sugar cane during rotation.

[0058] In an embodiment of the present invention, the inverted support structure 400 is installed on the traveling vehicle 300 and is located at the front end of the conveying structure 200.

[0060] It is easy to understand that in order to control the normal sorting and unloading of sugarcane, the sugarcane harvesting system may also include electronic components such as sensors and detectors. For example, the unloading structure 500 also includes a weight sensor. When the weight sensor senses that the sugarcane on the conveyor belt 540 is greater than a preset value, the cutting structure 100 is controlled to stop cutting and the travel vehicle 300 is controlled to move to a preset location, and the conveyor belt 540 of the cutting structure 500 is controlled to rotate to unload the separated and sorted sugarcane to a designated location, thereby completing the sugarcane harvesting and unloading.
