Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of Ledum palustris picking, and in particular to a Ledum palustris single-branch picking device. Background Art
[0002] Ledum is a plant of the genus Ledum in the family Ericaceae. It likes a cool and humid climate and is cold-resistant. It is suitable for growing in humus-rich, moist and fertile slightly acidic soil. Ledum is an evergreen upright shrub, about 40-50 cm tall, with many branches and slender branches. It has single leaves that are alternate and leathery. The leaves are mostly linear lanceolate or narrow and oblong, with slightly curled edges and rusty hairs on the back. It has a strong aroma.
[0003] The volatile oil of Ledum palustris has the effects of expectoration, cough relief and asthma relief, and is mainly used to treat chronic tracheitis and other diseases. Folks use Ledum palustris leaves to make ointments for the treatment of irregular menstruation, infertility and gastric ulcers. At the same time, the whole plant can be used to extract aromatic oils, and the oil yield of flowers and fruits is relatively high. It can be used to make high-grade spices and is widely used in daily chemical products, pharmaceutical soaps, foot water, shampoo and other products.
[0004] When picking Ledum, it is usually picked when it is growing vigorously and the branches and leaves have a high oil content, mostly in summer. At this time, the plants have accumulated rich aromatic substances. If they are picked too early, the plants will not develop completely and have few effective ingredients; if they are picked too late, the weather will turn cool, the quality of the branches and leaves may decline, and the fragrance will also be affected. The main picking part is the fresh and tender branches and leaves of Ledum.
[0005] At present, manual picking or mechanical picking is usually adopted when picking Ledum palustris.
[0006] (1) Manual picking:
[0007] Existing manual picking tools rely on ordinary scissors and pruning shears, etc., and need to be picked manually branch by branch and leaf by leaf. For large areas of Ledum palustris planting or picking areas, the labor intensity is high, the picking speed is slow, and it consumes a lot of time and manpower. At the same time, manual picking cannot ensure that the picking force and angle are the same every time, which may lead to uneven quality of the picked Ledum palustris branches and leaves. Some branches and leaves may be over-squeezed and torn, affecting their quality and subsequent processing and utilization.
[0008] (2) Mechanical picking:
[0009] Some existing harvesters are mostly designed for fruit trees or tall crops. As a short shrub, the growth environment and plant morphology of Ledum are very different from those of fruit trees. These harvesters cannot accurately harvest the branches and leaves of Ledum, which can easily lead to missed harvests or cause significant damage to the plants. Moreover, Ledum usually grows in complex terrains such as woodlands or mountains. Existing mechanical harvesters are large in size and complex in structure. They are not flexible in movement and operation, and it is difficult to reach remote locations or areas with complex terrain, so they cannot be fully and effectively harvested.
[0010] At the same time, electric picking tools require electricity supply. In the environment where wild Ledum grows, there is a problem of inconvenient power supply, such as being far away from power sockets or charging facilities, which limits their scope of use and continuous working time. Summary of the invention
[0011] In view of the shortcomings of the related technologies mentioned above, the present application provides a Ledum single-branch picking device to solve the above technical problems.
[0012] The present application provides a single-branch Ledum picking device, comprising an inserting plate, a rotating plate, an upper slider and a lower slider, wherein a rotating plate is installed above the inserting plate, and the rotating plate and the inserting plate are arranged in a parallel structure, an upper slider and a lower slider are respectively installed between the inserting plate and the rotating plate, the upper slider and the lower slider are symmetrically arranged, and the upper slider and the lower slider slide between the inserting plate and the rotating plate;
[0013] Two fan-shaped fixed slides are symmetrically arranged above the inserting plate, and the fixed slides are integrally connected to the inserting plate, the upper slide block and the lower slide block are arranged between the two fixed slides, a single-branch plug hole is opened at the center of the inserting plate, and the single-branch plug hole is arranged between the two fixed slides;
[0014] The turntable is provided with an upper slide groove and a lower slide groove of an arc structure, and the two ends of the groove body of the upper slide groove and the two ends of the groove body of the lower slide groove are arranged in a cross shape. The turntable rotates on the insert plate, and the rotation angle of the turntable is 90 degrees. Slide rods are respectively inserted into the upper slide groove and the lower slide groove on the turntable, and the top of the slide rod is screwed into a limiting nut. The slide rods are respectively fixedly connected to the upper slider and the lower slider. When the turntable rotates, the upper slide groove and the lower slide groove on the turntable are driven to rotate synchronously. When the upper slide groove and the lower slide groove rotate, the slide rods of the upper slide groove and the lower slide groove are pushed to move, thereby pushing the upper slider and the lower slider to slide synchronously between the insert plate and the turntable.
[0015] In the Ledum palustris single-branch picking device, the inserting plate is a circular structure as a whole, and the rotating disk above the inserting plate rotates 90 degrees clockwise and counterclockwise along the center of the inserting plate.
[0016] In the Ledum palustris single-branch picking device, a slider slot is provided on the plane of the side of the fixed slide on the inserting plate, and the slider slot penetrates the fixed slide.
[0017] In the Ledum single-branch picking device, the outer edge of the turntable is a concave-convex arc structure, a sleeve is provided at the center of the turntable, and the inner diameter of the sleeve is the same as the hole diameter of the single-branch insertion hole on the insertion disk.
[0018] The Ledum single branch picking device has an upper slider and a lower slider with the same structure, and both sides of the upper slider and the lower slider are integrally connected with plug blocks;
[0019] The insert block is inserted into the slider slot of the fixed slide, so that the insert block drives the upper slider and the lower slider to slide in the slider slot of the fixed slide.
[0020] The single-branch Ledum picking device described herein has an arc-shaped surface structure at one end of the upper slider and the lower slider, and a positioning notch of a semicircular arc groove structure at the other end of the upper slider and the lower slider. When the two positioning notches of the upper slider and the lower slider are aligned, a positioning hole for inserting a single branch of Ledum is formed between the two positioning notches.
[0021] The single-branch Ledum picking device described herein has a vertical plate vertically connected to the bottom planes of the upper and lower sliders, a push rod is slidably inserted into the middle of the vertical plate, one end of the push rod is connected to a baffle, and the other end of the push rod is connected to the middle position of a push frame, a compression spring is installed between the push frame and the vertical plate, and the compression spring is inserted into the push rod.
[0022] In the Ledum palustris single-branch picking device, the push frame is an overall U-shaped frame structure, and the horizontal plane of the push frame fits with the bottom planes of the upper sliding block and the lower sliding block.
[0023] In the Ledum palustris single-branch picking device, the elastic force of the compression spring pushes the push frame to the positioning notches of the upper slider and the lower slider, and the positioning notches are shielded by the horizontal surface on the push frame.
[0024] The beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are:
[0025] The invention can improve the picking efficiency. Compared with manual picking, the Ledum picking device can pick multiple leaves on a single Ledum branch at one time, harvesting a large number of leaves in a short time, especially when the Ledum planting area is large or large-scale picking is required, it can significantly shorten the picking time and improve work efficiency. Its picking speed is much faster than manual picking one by one.
[0026] The invention ensures the quality of picking Ledum palustris leaves. The Ledum palustris picking device can accurately remove the leaves on the Ledum palustris branches, reduce damage to the leaves, ensure the integrity of the leaves, and facilitate subsequent processing and utilization. At the same time, it can also avoid the tearing and breaking of leaves caused by improper force during manual picking, thereby improving the quality of the leaves.
[0027] The invention can improve the safety of picking. Some Ledum grows in areas with complex terrain, such as hillsides and under forests. In complex terrains such as forests or mountains where Ledum grows, mechanical picking tools that replace Ledum are not flexible enough in movement and operation, and it is difficult to reach some Ledum plants growing in remote locations or areas with complex terrain, and it is impossible to carry out comprehensive and effective picking. At the same time, no power supply is required, so as to prevent limiting its scope of use and continuous working time. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
