Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of rubber tapping, and particularly to an integrated rubber tapping device that integrates the collection of old rubber threads, rubber tapping, and over - flowing rubber collection. Background Art
[0002] As an important strategic material, the production of natural rubber highly depends on manual rubber tapping. Traditional rubber tapping requires the rubber tapper to have proficient skills, with extremely high labor intensity, and the labor cost accounts for more than 70% of the total production cost. With the increasing aging of rubber tappers and the shortage of young labor, phenomena such as "abandoning rubber tapping and converting to other crops" have even occurred in major rubber - producing areas such as Hainan and Guangdong, seriously threatening the sustainable development of the industry. In addition, the efficiency of manual rubber tapping is low, especially when operating at night, the efficiency is further reduced. These problems force the industry to seek mechanized alternative solutions.
[0003] Early rubber tapping equipment (such as electric rubber tapping knives) can only assist manual operations and cannot solve the fundamental problem of labor shortage. Although mobile rubber tapping robots have the ability of autonomous navigation, they have poor adaptability to complex terrains (such as mountainous areas), and are costly, making it difficult to popularize. While fixed rubber tapping machines, through the design of being directly installed on rubber tree trunks, have the advantages of lightweight structure, stable operation, and low cost, and are considered an important technical path to achieve automated rubber tapping.
[0004] During the process of machine rubber tapping, due to reasons of the machine or the rubber tree itself, the situation of over - flowing rubber will inevitably occur. In order to reduce the waste caused by the overflow of rubber liquid during rubber tapping and the formation of old rubber threads by the solidification of the overflow on the rubber tapping surface, if the old rubber threads are not cleaned before rubber tapping, situations such as inaccurate rubber tapping depth and uneven rubber tapping knife marks will occur, seriously affecting the rubber tapping effect. Therefore, it is very necessary for this application to provide a rubber tapping device that integrates the collection of old rubber threads, rubber tapping, and over - flowing rubber collection.

Detailed implementation manners
[0017] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. In the following detailed description, only some exemplary embodiments of the present invention are described by way of illustration. It is understood that those of ordinary skill in the art can recognize that various modifications can be made to the described embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the drawings and the description are illustrative in nature and not intended to limit the protection scope of the claims.
[0018] As Figures 1 to 3As shown in the figure, an integrated rubber tapping device that combines the collection of old rubber threads, rubber tapping, and overflow rubber collection includes a mounting frame 100. At the top and bottom of the mounting frame 100, there are opening and closing clamping mechanisms 200. In the middle of the mounting frame 100, there is a track walking mechanism 300. At the output end of the track walking mechanism 300, there is a mounting seat 400. On the mounting seat 400, there are arranged a rubber thread cleaning and collecting mechanism 500, a rubber tapping mechanism 600, and an overflow rubber collecting mechanism 700 from top to bottom in sequence. The opening and closing clamping mechanism 200 is used to surround and fix this device on the rubber tree. The track walking mechanism 300 is used to carry the rubber thread cleaning and collecting mechanism 500 and the rubber tapping mechanism 600 to walk along the spiral path of the rubber tapping track. The rubber thread cleaning and collecting mechanism 500 is used to clean and collect the old rubber threads solidified on the rubber tapping surface to ensure that the rubber tapping surface to be tapped is clean and tidy, and to avoid situations such as improper rubber tapping depth and uneven rubber tapping knife marks caused by inaccurate covering of the rubber tapping surface due to the obstruction of old rubber threads. The rubber tapping mechanism 600 is used to tap the rubber tapping surface after the old rubber threads are cleaned. At this time, the rubber tapping depth is accurate and the rubber tapping knife marks are flat. The overflow rubber collecting mechanism 700 is used to collect the overflow rubber generated after rubber tapping, which can prevent the excess rubber liquid from overflowing, resulting in troubles in the next cleaning of old rubber threads and inaccurate rubber tapping, etc.
[0019] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in FIGS. Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the opening and closing clamping mechanism 200 includes two opening and closing clamping arms 201 that cooperate with each other left and right. On the inner side of the opening and closing clamping arm 201, there is an arc-shaped clamping part 202. The surface of the arc-shaped clamping part 202 is provided with anti-slip teeth. The inner end of the opening and closing clamping arm 201 is horizontally slidably connected to the mounting frame 100. On the mounting frame 100, there is a clamping arm rotating shaft 203 and a clamping arm motor 204 that drives the clamping arm rotating shaft 203 to rotate. On the clamping arm rotating shaft 203, there is a fixed active swing rod 205. Between the two ends of the active swing rod 205 and the two opening and closing clamping arms 201, there are articulated driven swing rods 206. When the clamping arm motor 204 operates, it will drive the active swing rod 205 to rotate through the clamping arm rotating shaft 203, and then pull the opening and closing clamping arm 201 to slide horizontally inward or outward along the mounting frame 100 through the driven swing rod 206. When the two opening and closing clamping arms 201 slide inward simultaneously, the rubber tree can be surrounded and held in this surrounded state to ensure the stable support of this device during the working state. The opening and closing clamping arm 201 maintains the clamping state through the clamping arm motor 204. In order to ensure the stable clamping of the opening and closing clamping arm 201, a strap can be provided on the outer side of the opening and closing clamping arm 201 for auxiliary fixation.
[0020] See Figure 1 and Figure 2, the track walking mechanism 300 includes two flexible tooth tracks 301 arranged corresponding to each other vertically. Both of the two flexible tooth tracks 301 have tooth track openings. The two flexible tooth tracks 301 are fixed on the mounting frame 100. Circumferential sliders 302 are respectively slidably mounted on the two flexible tooth tracks 301. A circumferential gear meshing with the flexible tooth track 301 and a circumferential motor 303 for driving the circumferential gear to rotate are mounted on the circumferential slider 302. A guiding column 304 is fixed between the upper and lower circumferential sliders 302. The mounting seat 400 is slidably mounted on the guiding column 304. A vertical screw rod 305 is also rotatably mounted between the upper and lower circumferential sliders 302. The mounting seat 400 is also threadedly connected to the vertical screw rod 305. One end of the vertical screw rod 305 is connected to the power end of a vertical motor 306 through a coupling. When the circumferential motor 303 operates, it can drive the circumferential gear to rotate and move along the inner surface of the flexible tooth track 301, thereby driving the mounting seat 400 and structures such as the rubber thread cleaning mechanism 500, rubber tapping mechanism 600, and overflow rubber collecting mechanism 700 thereon to move circumferentially; when the vertical motor 306 operates, it can drive the vertical screw rod 305 to rotate, thereby driving the mounting seat 400 and structures such as the rubber thread cleaning mechanism 500, rubber tapping mechanism 600, and overflow rubber collecting mechanism 700 thereon to move vertically. When the circumferential motor 303 and the vertical motor 306 cooperate and operate simultaneously, they can drive the mounting seat 400 and structures such as the rubber thread cleaning mechanism 500, rubber tapping mechanism 600, and overflow rubber collecting mechanism 700 thereon to move along the spiral path of the rubber tapping track. The track walking mechanism 300 belongs to a commonly used structure in the art and will not be elaborated herein.
[0021] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the rubber thread cleaning mechanism 500 includes a thread picking, clamping and cutting device and a negative pressure collecting device. The thread picking, clamping and cutting device is used to clean the old rubber thread so that it is completely separated from the rubber tapping surface. The negative pressure collecting device is used to collect the separated old rubber thread to prevent it from falling onto the lower tool and affecting the rubber tapping operation.
[0022] See Figure 4 and Figure 5, the thread picking and cutting device includes a glue picking shovel 501. A cut-off jaw 502 that can open and close is correspondingly arranged above the glue picking shovel 501. The glue picking shovel 501 is a fixed knife, and the cut-off jaw 502 is a non-fixed knife. When the glue picking shovel 501 first cuts into the old glue line, the cut-off jaw 502 needs to open for avoidance at this time. After the glue picking shovel 501 completely cuts through the old glue line, the cut-off jaw then closes to divide the inner end of the old glue line. There is a glue line guiding channel 503 between the cut-off jaw 502 and the glue picking shovel 501 after the cut-off jaw 502 closes. The glue line guiding channel 503 is used to guide the separated old glue line. As the thread picking and cutting device moves along the rubber cutting trajectory, the old glue line gradually separates and passes through the glue line guiding channel 503 and drops vertically, so that the negative pressure collecting device located below the rear side of the glue line guiding channel 503 can just be aligned with the vertically dropping old glue line, and the separated glue line is sucked and collected by using negative pressure.
[0023] See Figure 5 , the thread picking and cutting device includes a thread picking seat 504 fixed on the mounting seat 400. A thread picking telescopic member 505 is installed on the thread picking seat 504. A thread picking rotating member 506 is installed at the telescopic end of the thread picking telescopic member 505. A thread picking bracket 507 is fixed at the rotating end of the thread picking rotating member 506. The glue picking shovel 501 is fixed at the outer end of the thread picking bracket 507. The cut-off jaw 502 is rotatably connected to the thread picking bracket 507. A jaw driving member 508 for driving the cut-off jaw 502 to swing open and close is further provided on the thread picking bracket 507. The thread picking telescopic member 505 can be telescopic to drive the glue picking shovel 501 and the cut-off jaw 502 to approach or move away from the rubber tree. The thread picking telescopic member 505 can adopt a telescopic cylinder, and of course, it can also adopt a screw rod or other methods to achieve telescoping. The thread picking rotating member 506 can rotate to drive the glue picking shovel 501 and the cut-off jaw 502 to rotate to adapt to the rubber cutting surface of the rubber cutting trajectory. The thread picking rotating member 506 can be a rotating cylinder. The middle part of the cut-off jaw 502 is rotatably connected to the thread picking bracket 507 through a swing rod, and the rear end of the cut-off jaw 502 is rotatably connected to the jaw driving member 508. The jaw driving member 508 is a jaw telescopic cylinder, and during its telescopic process, it can drive the cut-off jaw 502 to swing to achieve opening and closing.
[0024] See Figure 6, the glue scraping spatula 501 is an L-shaped spatula. The outer end of the L-shaped spatula is provided with a cutting-in horizontal edge 501a and a wire-breaking vertical edge 501b. The height of the wire-breaking vertical edge 501b is relatively low, which only needs to satisfy cutting the old glue line and does not affect the old glue line passing through the glue line guiding channel 503. The other end face of the L-shaped spatula is also provided with a glue scraping side edge 501c. The cutting-in horizontal edge 501a is used to extend to the bottom of the old glue line, so that the old glue line can be separated from and lifted from the glue cutting surface. The wire-breaking vertical edge 501b is used to cut the end of the old glue line, so that the tail end of the old glue line is cut off. When the glue scraping side edge 501c walks along the glue cutting surface, it can separate the old glue line on the surface of the glue cutting surface from the glue cutting surface; the outer end of the cutting clamp 502 has an arc-shaped wire-breaking edge 502a, and the arc-shaped wire-breaking edge 502a corresponds to the position of the cutting-in horizontal edge 501a. When the cutting clamp 502 is closed, the arc-shaped wire-breaking edge 502a abuts against the surface of the cutting-in horizontal edge 501a, and can cut the inner end of the old glue line, so that the old glue line is completely separated from the glue cutting surface. As the cutting clamp 502 walks, the old glue line can be completely separated. The arc-shaped wire-breaking edge 502a is an arc-shaped edge with a relatively thin thickness, similar to an arc-shaped knife, and can perform walking cutting on the inner end of the cut old glue line.
[0025] See Figure 4 and Figure 7 , the negative pressure collection device includes a glue line collection seat 509 fixed on the mounting seat 400. A collection telescopic member 510 is installed on the glue line collection seat 509. The telescopic end of the collection telescopic member 510 is installed with a collection rotating member 511. The rotating end of the collection rotating member 511 is fixed with a glue line collection box 512. A glue line partition screen 513 is arranged inside the glue line collection box 512. A negative pressure fan 514 is arranged inside the glue line collection box 512 on the inner side of the glue line partition screen 513. A glue line collection opening is arranged on the glue line collection box 512 on the other side of the glue line partition screen 513. A detachable glue line collection elbow 515 is arranged at the glue line collection opening. The collection telescopic member 510 can be telescopic, driving the glue line collection box 512 and the glue line collection elbow 515 to approach or move away from the position of the old glue line. The collection telescopic member 510 can adopt a telescopic cylinder, and of course, it can also be realized by a screw rod or other means. The collection rotating member 511 can rotate, driving the glue line collection box 512 and the glue line collection elbow 515 to rotate for aligning with the old glue line. The collection rotating member 511 can be a rotating cylinder. When the negative pressure fan 514 operates, the rotation of the blades makes the inside of the glue line collection box 512 generate negative pressure, and can attract the old glue line into the glue line collection box 512 through the glue line collection elbow 515. When a certain number of old glue lines accumulate inside, the glue line collection elbow 515 can be removed to clean the old glue line to avoid blockage.
[0026] The rubber tapping mechanism 600 includes a rubber tapping telescopic member 601. A tool holder 602 is installed at the telescopic end of the rubber tapping telescopic member 601. A cutter module 603 is provided on the tool holder 602. The cutter module 603 is a prior art and will not be elaborated herein. The cutter module 603 can be telescoped by the rubber tapping telescopic member 601 to control the distance between the cutter and the rubber tree.
[0027] See Figure 8 , the overflow glue collecting mechanism 700 includes an overflow glue collecting groove 701. The shape of the overflow glue collecting groove 701 is consistent with the rubber tapping track. An overflow glue collecting box 702 is communicated and provided at the bottom end of the overflow glue collecting groove 701. The overflow glue collecting groove 701 is used to collect the excess overflow glue on the rubber tapping surface, and the overflow glue collecting box 702 accumulates it. The overflow glue collecting box 702 can be connected in a detachable manner to facilitate the dumping of the overflow glue collecting box 702.
[0028] See Figure 8 , the overflow glue collecting mechanism 700 includes an overflow glue telescopic member 703. An overflow glue support is installed at the telescopic end of the overflow glue telescopic member 703. The shape of the overflow glue support is consistent with the shape of the overflow glue collecting groove 701. The overflow glue collecting groove 701 and the overflow glue support are connected by a plurality of support elastic members 704. The overflow glue telescopic member 703 can be telescoped to drive the overflow glue collecting groove 701 to approach or move away from the surface of the rubber tree. The support elastic member 704 is a spring, and both ends of the spring are respectively fixed above the overflow glue collecting groove 701 and the overflow glue support.
[0029] The overflow glue collecting groove 701 is made of a flexible material. The overflow glue collecting groove 701 has a V-shaped cavity with an open top end. The outer end surface of the overflow glue collecting groove 701 is used to fit the surface of the rubber tree. A glue liquid guiding inclination angle 705 is provided at the top end of the outer end surface of the overflow glue collecting groove 701. After the excess overflow glue flows from the lower surface of the rubber tapping surface, it flows into the overflow glue collecting groove 701 through the glue liquid guiding inclination angle 705, and then is collected into the overflow glue collecting box 702 along the overflow glue collecting groove 701.
[0030] A depth camera and a controller are further provided on the mounting base 400 of this embodiment to assist the movement of each component.
[0031] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: Before working, the rubber tapping device is clamped and fixed at a suitable rubber tapping height position on the rubber tree through the opening and closing clamping arm 201; the steps of rubber tapping are as follows: first, clean the old glue line solidified on the rubber tapping surface after the previous rubber tapping operation, then perform rubber tapping, and finally collect the overflow glue after rubber tapping. Before the equipment operates, each mechanism is moved away from the rubber tree and a preset distance is reserved from the surface of the rubber tree for waiting; Before the operation of cleaning the rubber thread, the rubber thread cleaning and collecting mechanism 500 is driven by the track walking mechanism 300 to move to the lower right of the pre-cut rubber tapping track. Then, the rubber picking telescopic part 505 and the rubber picking rotating part 506 are used to control the rubber picking shovel 501 to approach the rubber tapping surface. At an appropriate angle, the cutting edge 501a of the tool is inserted into the bottom of the old rubber thread, so that the bottom of the old rubber thread is separated from the rubber tapping surface and is lifted. At the same time, during the process of the tool entering, the vertical cutting edge 501b cuts the end of the old rubber thread. When the cutting edge 501a reaches the depth of the rubber tapping surface, the cutting jaw driving part 508 is used to control the cutting jaw 502 to close downward, and the arc-shaped cutting edge 502a cuts the inner end of the old rubber thread, so that this section of the old rubber thread is completely separated from the rubber tapping surface. Then, the track walking mechanism 300 is used to control the rubber thread cleaning and collecting mechanism 500 to walk along the spiral path of the rubber tapping track. During this process, the scraping edge 501c of the rubber picking shovel 501 walks from the lower right to the upper left along the rubber tapping surface, separating the old rubber thread on the surface of the rubber tapping surface from the rubber tapping surface. At the same time, as the cutting jaw 502 walks, the arc-shaped cutting edge 502a can cut the inner end of the old rubber thread completely during walking, completing the gradual separation of the old rubber thread. The gradually separated old rubber thread passes through the rubber thread guiding channel 503 and drops vertically; at the same time, the angle position of the rubber thread collecting elbow 515 is adjusted by the collecting telescopic part 510 and the collecting rotating part 511, which is located below the side of the cutting jaw 502. The old rubber thread dropping from the rubber thread guiding channel 503 is collected into the rubber thread collecting box 512 by negative pressure. During the movement of the rubber thread cleaning and collecting mechanism 500, the negative pressure collecting device moves synchronously, and can collect the dropped old rubber thread in time. When moving to the upper left position, by rotating the rubber picking shovel 501 by an angle, the scraping edge 501c swings upward by an angle, cutting off the end of the old rubber thread, and all the old rubber thread is collected under the action of negative pressure. After the rubber thread cleaning and collecting work is completed, the rubber picking and cutting device and the negative pressure collecting device are moved away from the surface of the rubber tapping tree for avoidance; Start rubber tapping. The cutting tool module 603 is driven by the track walking mechanism 300 to move to the lower right end of the rubber tapping track. Then, the feed depth of the cutting tool module 603 is adjusted to make the cutting tool module 603 align with the rubber tapping surface. Then, it moves from the lower right position to the upper left along the rubber tapping track for rubber tapping operation. The cutting tool module 603 controls the rubber tapping depth according to the feedback of the sensor. After moving to the uppermost end of the rubber tapping track, it stops, retracts the tool, and then moves away from the surface of the rubber tapping tree for avoidance; Start collecting the latex. Drive the overflow latex collection mechanism 700 through the track walking mechanism 300 to adjust the position so that the overflow latex collection mechanism 700 is directly facing the latex tapping track. Then, make the inner end surface of the overflow latex collection groove 701 fully fit the surface of the rubber tree through the overflow latex telescopic member 703 and stop. At this time, the latex guiding inclination angle 705 is just below the latex tapping surface. The normal latex will flow through the spiral path of the latex tapping surface to the lower part for collection, while the excess overflow latex will fall into the overflow latex collection groove 701 from the lower surface of the latex tapping surface through the latex guiding inclination angle 705 and be accumulated by the overflow latex collection box 702. Since the latex only overflows at the beginning, after the latex collection is completed within a certain period of time, the overflow latex collection groove 701 moves away from the rubber tree for avoidance. After a period of time, when no more latex flows out of the latex tapping surface, a new latex line will solidify on the surface of the latex tapping surface. Repeat the above steps, first clean and collect the latex line, then tap the latex, and finally collect the overflow latex, and so on in a cycle.
