[0045] Figure 1 and 2 The figure shows a specific embodiment of the cabbage harvesting device of the present invention, which comprises a double-screw pulling mechanism 1, a weeding mechanism 2, a frame 3, a floating clamping and conveying mechanism 4, a double-disc root cutting mechanism 5 and a root clamping and limiting mechanism 6;

[0046] The double-screw extracting mechanism 1 is installed at the front lower part of the frame 3, the reed-pulling mechanism 2 is installed at the front part of the frame 3 and is located above the double-screw extracting mechanism 1; the floating clamping and conveying mechanism 4 is installed on the frame 3 and is located behind the reed-pulling mechanism 2, the root clamping and limiting mechanism 6 is installed on the frame 3 and is located below the floating clamping and conveying mechanism 4, and the double-disc root cutting mechanism 5 is installed on the frame 3 and is located behind and below the root clamping and limiting mechanism 6. The double-screw extracting mechanism 1 is used to extract cabbage, the reed-pulling mechanism 2 is used to assist the cabbage to enter the floating clamping and conveying mechanism 4, the floating clamping and conveying mechanism 4 is used to transport the extracted cabbage backwards, the root clamping and limiting mechanism 6 is used to extract the cabbage that is not completely off the ground and tightly clamp its root, the root clamping and limiting mechanism 6 is used to drag the cabbage rosette, and the double-disc root cutting mechanism 5 is used to cut off the cabbage root clamped by the floating clamping and conveying mechanism 4 and the root clamping and limiting mechanism 6.

[0047] The double-screw pulling mechanism 1 is used to straighten and pull the cabbage, and make it enter the floating clamping and conveying mechanism 4 in a suitable posture as much as possible; the weeding mechanism 2 is used to give the pulled cabbage a backward force, so that it can smoothly enter the floating clamping and conveying mechanism 4; the floating clamping and conveying mechanism 4 is used to convey the pulled cabbage backward, which is conducive to the completion of the subsequent limiting and root cutting operations; the double-disc root cutting mechanism 5 is used for the root clamping mechanism to pull the cabbage that is not completely off the ground and clamp its roots tightly; the root clamping and limiting mechanism 6 drags the cabbage rosette through the meshing double-sided tooth synchronous belt 6-3, so that the cabbage rosettes of different varieties and sizes are tightly attached to the two guide rods 6-5, thereby greatly reducing the deviation of the optimal cutting position of the cabbage and reducing the cabbage cutting damage. By changing the installation position of the pulling roller 1-1, the tension and opening size of the floating clamping and conveying mechanism 4, and the relative distance of the double guide rods 6-5, it can adapt to the mechanical harvesting operation of cabbages of different varieties and sizes, so as to have better variety adaptability.

[0048] like Figure 3 As shown, the double-screw extraction mechanism 1 includes an extraction roller 1-1, a bearing seat 1-2, an L-shaped mounting plate 1-3, a mounting plate 1-4, a parallel shaft reduction motor 1-5, and a plum blossom coupling 1-6;

[0049] The extraction rollers 1-1 are arranged in pairs, and the parallel shaft reduction motor 1-5 is connected to the shaft at the rear end of the extraction roller 1-1 through a plum blossom coupling 1-6. The shaft at the rear end of the extraction roller 1-1 is installed in a bearing seat 1-2. Two double-row roller bearings are arranged in the bearing seat 1-2, so that the extraction roller can rotate smoothly; the bearing seat 1-2 is installed on an L-shaped mounting plate 1-3, and an oblong groove is arranged on the L-shaped mounting plate 1-3. The bearing seat 1-2 is connected to the oblong groove by bolts. By adjusting the position where the bearing seat 1-2 is connected to the oblong groove, the connection between the bearing seat 1-2 and the oblong groove can be changed. The relative installation position of the L-shaped mounting plate 1-3 is used to adjust the position between the two pulling rollers 1-1 to adapt to cabbages of different sizes; the L-shaped mounting plate 1-3 and the mounting plate 1-4 have two oblong grooves on their sides, which are connected by bolts. The oblong grooves can change the relative installation position of the L-shaped mounting plate 1-3 and the mounting plate 1-4 up and down to adjust the height of the pulling roller 1-1 from the ground; when in use, it is necessary to first adjust the distance between the two pulling rollers 1-1 according to the size of the harvested cabbages, so that cabbages of different sizes can be smoothly pulled by the pulling roller 1-1.

[0050] The double-helix extraction mechanism appears in pairs, and the surface of the extraction roller needs to be polished smooth to reduce friction. The head of the extraction roller is solid and pointed, so that when the machine walks close to the ground, it will not be squeezed by the undulating ridge surface, which will affect the harvesting effect.

[0051] The surface of the pulling roller 1-1 is smooth, thereby reducing friction; the head of the pulling roller 1-1 is a solid cone, so that when the machine moves close to the ground, it will not be squeezed by the undulating ridge surface, which will affect the harvesting effect. When the pulling roller is installed, the bottom surface is flush with the ground, and the openings of the two pulling rollers 1-1 are 20°. Figure 4 shown.

[0052] The front and back, left and right installation positions of the pulling roller 1-1 can be adjusted with two degrees of freedom. The floating clamping and conveying mechanism 4 can change the tension and the opening size through a spring. The root clamping limit mechanism 6 can be adjusted in spacing and in the up and down directions from the position of the cutting knife. Through the adjustment of these mechanisms, the cabbage harvester can adapt to the harvesting operations of cabbages of multiple varieties and different sizes, thereby having better variety adaptability.

The reel plate 2-1 uses a high-strength and high-elasticity beef tendon plate, so that it is not easy to bend each time the cabbage is plowed, and a greater driving force can be given. Preferably, the bearing seat 2-7 is a small micro bearing seat.

[0055] The reel 2 - 3 is installed at the opening of the floating clamping conveying mechanism 4 , and when the cabbage is pulled up and is about to enter the floating clamping conveying mechanism 4 , a backward thrust is given to prevent the cabbage from being stuck at the entrance of the floating clamping conveying mechanism 4 .

[0056] One end of the floating mounting plate 2-6 is provided with a plurality of pairs of through holes along the edge, and the other end of the second mounting frame 2-5 can be selectively mounted on the through holes of the floating mounting plate 2-6 through a pin, and the hole position of the second mounting frame 2-5 on the floating mounting plate 2-6 is adjusted so that the lowest point of the reeling board 2-1 can be close to the lower end surface of the conveyor belt 4-1.

Ideally, the angle between the harvesting part connecting frame 3-1 and the ground is 20°. The control part connecting frame 3-4 is used to install subsequent control modules, such as drivers, switching power supplies, circuit breakers, step-down modules, etc.

[0058] like Figure 7 , 8As shown, the floating clamping conveying mechanism 4 includes two symmetrically arranged floating clamping conveying units, each of which includes a conveying belt 4-1, a tensioning arm assembly 4-2, an L-shaped reduction motor 4-3, an active roller mounting seat 4-4, a threaded rod 4-5, a spring fixing sheet 4-6, a driven roller 4-7 and an active roller 4-8;

[0060] Preferably, the conveyor belt 4-1 is made of 3 mm thick PVC diamond pattern. The uneven diamond pattern on the surface allows the cabbage to be clamped more firmly during the clamping process, avoiding slipping.

[0061] like Fig. 9 As shown, the double-disc root cutting mechanism 5 includes a motor mounting plate 5-1, a cutter disc 5-2, a flange 5-3, a bearing seat mounting plate 5-4, a transmission device assembly 5-5, a first transmission shaft, an elastic plum blossom coupling 5-6 and an arc-cone right-angle reduction motor 5-7.

By adjusting the position of the flange 5-3 in the long circular groove, the overlap of the two cutter discs 5-2 can be changed, which is conducive to ensuring that the overlap is larger than the diameter of the cabbage root, so that there is no cross section when it is cut. Preferably, the overlap of the cutter is changed to 20-30mm. Preferably, the first transmission shaft is a hexagonal transmission shaft.

[0064] like Fig.10 As shown, the root clamping limiting mechanism 6 includes two symmetrically arranged root clamping limiting units, a root clamping driving wheel mounting plate assembly 6-1, a root clamping driving wheel 6-2, a double-sided toothed synchronous belt 6-3, a frame mounting plate assembly 6-4, a guide rod 6-5, a root clamping frame assembly 6-6, a root clamping floating clamping assembly 6-7 and a root clamping driven wheel 6-8;

[0065] The root clamp driving wheel 6-2 is installed on the root clamp driving wheel mounting plate assembly 6-1, the root clamp floating clamping assembly 6-7, the guide rod 6-5 and the root clamp driven wheel 6-8 are respectively installed on the root clamp frame assembly 6-6 by bolts, and the double-sided toothed synchronous belt 6-3 is installed on the root clamp driving wheel 6-2 and the root clamp driven wheel 6-8; the root clamp driving wheel 6-2 is a toothed design, the root clamp driving wheel 6-2 is meshed with the inner side of the double-sided toothed synchronous belt 6-3, the root clamp floating clamping assembly 6-7 is located below the guide rod 6-5, and is located inside the loop of the double-sided toothed synchronous belt 6-3, and contacts with the inner side of the double-sided toothed synchronous belt 6-3, and the root clamp floating clamping assembly 6-7 of the two root clamp limiting units makes the two double-sided toothed synchronous belts 6-3 relative to the outer sides. The two guide rods 6-5 are meshed side by side to form a conveying channel. The guide rod 6-5 is tilted upward from front to back and forms an angle of 5 to 10° with the double-sided toothed synchronous belt 6-3. When the cabbage moves backward, it will be pulled downward by the double-sided toothed synchronous belt 6-3 and tightly adhere to the guide rod 6-5; the root clamping frame assembly 6-6 is installed on the frame mounting plate assembly 6-4 by bolts, and the frame mounting plate assembly 6-4 is installed on the harvesting part connecting frame 3-1 of the frame 3 by bolts; the L-shaped plate connecting the guide rod 6-5 and the root clamping frame assembly 6-6 is provided with an oblong groove, and by adjusting the connection position of the root clamping frame assembly 6-6 and the oblong groove on the L-shaped plate, the distance between the two guide rods 6-5 can be adjusted to change the size of the channel to adapt to different varieties of cabbage.

[0066] The root clamping limit mechanism 6 also includes an arc cone right angle reduction motor 6-9; two root clamping driving wheels 6-2 are respectively connected to the second transmission shaft, and the output shaft of the arc cone right angle reduction motor 6-9 is connected to one end of the second transmission shaft. The arc cone right angle reduction motor 6-9 drives the two root clamping driving wheels 6-2 to rotate through the second transmission shaft, which is electrically driven, more energy-saving, environmentally friendly and low-pollution. Preferably, the double-sided tooth synchronous belt 6-3 is of the T20 series, with a tooth width of 32mm and a pitch of 20mm, which can better clamp the root of the cabbage; in addition, the double-sided tooth synchronous belt 6-3 can avoid slipping compared to traditional belts. The root clamping limit mechanism 6 clamps the cabbage rosette through a pair of meshing double-sided tooth synchronous belts 6-3, so that cabbage rosettes of different varieties and sizes are tightly attached to the two guide rods 6-5, thereby greatly reducing the deviation of the optimal cutting position of the cabbage and greatly improving the qualified rate of root cutting.

[0067] The double-sided toothed synchronous belt 6-3 and the conveyor belt 4-1 are clamped synchronously to avoid the problem of only one-sided force on the conveyor belt 4-1 during the root cutting process, thereby avoiding the problem of posture changes during the root cutting process of the cabbage, thereby causing root cutting damage.

[0068] The root clamping belt uses a double-sided toothed synchronous belt 6-3, which has better transmission performance than traditional belts and can avoid slipping during operation. The cabbage harvesting device of this embodiment is a side-suspended design, and the entire machine needs to be suspended on the three-point suspension mechanism of the tractor when working. Before officially carrying out the cabbage harvesting operation, it is first necessary to adjust the tractor's three-point suspension device so that the lower bottom surface of the pulling roller 1-1 is close to the ground; adjust the hole position of the floating mounting plate 2-6 and the position of the first mounting frame 2-4 in the second mounting frame 2-5, so that the lowest point of the plowing plate 2-1 can reach the cabbage to be harvested; adjust the installation position of the spring fixing plate 4-6 on the threaded rod 4-5, so that the clamping force given to the conveyor belt 4-1 by the tensioning arm assembly 4-2 can clamp the cabbage; adjust the spacing of the guide rod 6-5 so that cabbages of different sizes are in the best root cutting position after limiting.

[0069] When the cabbage harvesting operation is officially carried out, the tractor drives the whole machine forward, and a pair of pulling rollers 1-1 rotate in the opposite direction close to the ground. The pair of pulling rollers 1-1 are located in the open space on both sides of the cabbage. As the machine moves forward, the pulling rollers 1-1 pull the cabbage upward, and finally fall into the root clamping limit mechanism 6. At this time, a pair of meshing double-sided toothed synchronous belts 6-3 clamp the root of the cabbage and transport it backward; when it reaches the guide rod 6-5, the double-sided toothed synchronous belt 6-3 clamps the cabbage and transports it backward along the curved surface of the guide rod 6-5. At this time, the bottom of the cabbage falls above the pair of guide rods 6-5, and the double-sided toothed synchronous belt 6-3 is installed on the guide rod 6-5. When the cabbage is moved backward, it will be pulled down by the double-sided tooth synchronous belt 6-3 and tightly attached to the guide rod 6-5. Some of the previous steps may cause the cabbage to be clamped in different positions by the conveyor belt. For example, the cabbage is in the middle of the conveyor belt, or lower or upper, or if the cabbage is crooked, it will be pulled down by the double-sided tooth synchronous belt 6-3 and the position will be much straighter. The floating amount of the best root cutting position of each cabbage will be reduced, and the root cutting effect will be better. When continuing to be transported backward, the cabbage clamped by the conveyor belt 4-1 and the double-sided tooth synchronous belt 6-3 completes root cutting at the double disc root cutting mechanism 5.

[0070] The present invention utilizes a double-screw extraction mechanism 1 to extract cabbage, and a weeding mechanism 2 assists the cabbage to enter a floating clamping and conveying mechanism 4. The floating clamping and conveying mechanism 4 conveys the extracted cabbage backwards. The root clamping and limiting mechanism 6 extracts the cabbage that is not completely off the ground and clamps its root tightly. The root clamping and limiting mechanism 6 drags the cabbage rosette through a meshing double-sided tooth synchronous belt 6-3, so that cabbage rosettes of different varieties and sizes are closely attached to two guide rods 6-5, thereby greatly reducing the deviation of the optimal cutting position of the cabbage and reducing the cabbage cutting damage. The present invention can adapt to the mechanical harvesting operation of cabbage of different varieties and sizes by changing the installation position of the extraction roller 1-1, the tension and opening size of the floating clamping and conveying mechanism 4, and the relative distance of the double guide rods 6-5, thereby having better variety adaptability.
