Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of bayberry fruit covering devices, and in particular to a spherical hard bayberry fruit cover and its fruit covering device. Background Art

[0002] As a popular fruit, bayberry is highly favored by consumers due to its unique taste and rich nutritional value. However, during the ripening process of bayberry, the fruits often face various external threats. Firstly, birds are one of the main natural enemies of bayberry. Ripe bayberry fruits are highly sweet and easily attract birds to peck at them, resulting in damaged or even completely destroyed fruits. Secondly, insects are also a major problem in bayberry cultivation. Pests such as fruit flies will lay eggs on the fruit surface, causing the fruits to rot or their quality to decline. In addition, adverse weather conditions, such as strong winds, heavy rains or hailstorms, will also cause physical damage to bayberry fruits, affecting their appearance and market value.

[0003] Currently, the protection measures for bayberry fruits mainly adopt a mesh structure, such as bird-proof nets or insect-proof nets. Although these mesh structures can prevent birds from pecking to a certain extent, their protection effect against insects is limited, especially their ability to block small insects is poor. In addition, the protection of the mesh structure against natural environments such as wind and rain is weak, and it cannot effectively prevent the fruits from being damaged by external impacts. At the same time, the existing protection measures often lack stability and are easily displaced or even fallen off due to wind force or fruit growth, resulting in a significant reduction in the protection effect. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a more efficient, stable and easy-to-operate protection device to solve the above problems and improve the quality and yield of bayberry fruits.

[0017] (III) Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a spherical hard waxberry fruit sleeve and its fruit sleeve device, having the following beneficial effects: 1. The present invention relates to a spherical hard waxberry fruit sleeve and its fruit sleeving device, which are mainly used to protect fruits that are vulnerable to insect and bird damage and are easily damaged and difficult to preserve. By sleeving the fruit on the outer surface, it can effectively prevent the damage of external factors to the fruit, significantly extend the fresh-keeping period of the fruit and improve its quality.

[0018] The outer surface of the fruit sleeve is evenly distributed with protrusions, and small holes are arranged inside the protrusions. The design of these small holes is ingenious: the diameter of one end facing the inside is larger, while the diameter of the end facing the outside is smaller, forming a funnel shape with a gradually decreasing width in the outward direction in the cross-section. This design can not only achieve a good ventilation effect to ensure smooth breathing of the fruit, but also effectively prevent insects from entering the inside of the fruit sleeve. At the same time, the funnel-shaped small holes have strong drainage performance, which can quickly drain rainwater or dew, avoid water accumulation inside the fruit sleeve, and thus reduce the risk of fruit rot due to a humid environment.

[0019] In order to further improve the practicality and convenience of the fruit sleeve, in another embodiment of the present invention, the first fruit sleeve and the second fruit sleeve are an integrated structure connected by a bendable connecting band. A groove is provided inwardly on the circular edge of the first fruit sleeve, while a convex block is provided outwardly on the circular edge of the second fruit sleeve. The groove and the convex block are mutually adapted to form a stable clamping structure. And because they are connected to each other, there is no need to separately find the first fruit sleeve and the second fruit sleeve during use, which simplifies the use steps. This design enables the first fruit sleeve and the second fruit sleeve to be quickly closed and combined into a complete spherical fruit sleeve without the need for other equipment or additional structures, and the operation is simple and efficient.

[0020] In addition, both the first fruit sleeve and the second fruit sleeve are made of plastic materials. The matching groove, convex block and protrusion designs can all be integrally processed by injection molding technology. Especially for the protrusions, when manufacturing, only a sharp tool is needed to penetrate the fruit shell from the inside to the outside, and protrusions and small holes with a diameter larger inside and smaller outside in the outward direction can be naturally formed on the outer surface of the plastic fruit shell. This manufacturing method not only greatly reduces the production cost, but also simplifies the production process and improves the production efficiency. The selection of plastic materials also makes the fruit sleeve have the advantages of being light, durable, anti-aging, etc., and is suitable for long-term use in outdoor environments.

[0021] In summary, through the innovative fruit sleeve structure and ingenious protrusion and small hole designs, the present invention realizes the efficient protection of fruits, while taking into account multiple functions such as ventilation, insect prevention, and drainage. Its split design and integrated processing method further reduce the cost and manufacturing difficulty, and have high practicality and market promotion value.

[0022] The spherical hard waxberry fruit sleeve and its fruit sleeving device are designed with a fruit sleeving device that matches the fruit sleeve, enabling the easy operation of sleeving the fruits hanging on the tree. The core component of the fruit sleeving device is the locator, on the inner surface of which concave holes are designed to match the spines. These concave holes are not only used to connect the first fruit sleeve and the second fruit sleeve but also can achieve the precise positioning function. Specifically, the cooperation between the spines and the concave holes ensures that the first fruit sleeve and the second fruit sleeve are accurately aligned when closed. This design makes the branch holes on the outer surface of the fruit sleeve exactly correspond to the positioning holes on the locator, thus simplifying the installation process.

[0023] In actual operation, the user only needs to move the locator near the target fruit, and through the cooperation of the concave holes and the spines, fix the first fruit sleeve and the second fruit sleeve inside the locator. Subsequently, close both sides of the locator, making the first fruit sleeve and the second fruit sleeve naturally merge and squeeze, finally forming a complete spherical fruit sleeve that tightly wraps around the outside of the fruit. The whole process does not require complex adjustments or additional tools, and the operation is simple and efficient.

[0024] 3. The spherical hard waxberry fruit sleeve and its fruit sleeving device are provided with a handheld frame with a hollow structure inside and a grip installed inside it, which has the freedom of movement along the axis direction. At the upper end of the grip, there are two symmetrically distributed fixed shafts made of deformable materials. At the top of both fixed shafts, there is a locator connected. The two locators are symmetrically distributed semi - circles. There are sliding grooves on the inner surface of the handheld frame, and corresponding sliders are arranged on the outer surface of the grip to limit the freedom of movement of the grip inside the handheld frame; at the lower end of the grip, there is a pull - ring to facilitate the user to push and pull the grip. When in use, the user only needs to aim at the waxberry fruits on the tree, and then pull the handheld frame or the grip to merge the two fixed shafts, thus realizing the approach of the locators and sleeving the fruit sleeve outside the waxberry fruits.

[0027] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1-6, A spherical hard waxberry fruit sleeve and its fruit sleeving device are used for the outer surface of fruits that are vulnerable to insect and bird damage and are perishable and difficult to preserve. In this embodiment, it is used for the protection of waxberry fruits. The waxberry fruit sleeve includes a first fruit sleeve 1 and a second fruit sleeve 2. Both the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2 are semi-circular structures with hollow interiors for storing waxberry fruits. A groove 11 is formed by inwardly opening on the arc edge of the first fruit sleeve 1, and a convex block 21 is provided on the arc edge of the second fruit sleeve 2 outwardly. The groove 11 and the convex block 21 are adapted to form a clamping structure. After the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2 are connected through the clamping structure, they jointly form a complete circle. This design enables the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2 to quickly close and form a complete spherical fruit sleeve without the need to rely on other equipment or additional structures, with simple and efficient operation. Spikes 3 are provided on the outer surfaces of both the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2. The protruding direction of the spikes 3 is towards the outside, which can better prevent rainwater from entering the interior of the fruit shell. The spikes 3 are hollow inside to form small holes 301. The diameter of the end of the small hole 301 facing the inside is larger than that of the end facing the outside. The small hole 301 forms a funnel shape with a gradually decreasing width in the cross-section towards the outside, which is beneficial to the discharge of moisture inside the shell. The number of spikes 3 is more than 10, and they are arranged in an array along the arc outer surfaces of the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2. Semi-circular hollow areas with the same specifications are provided at the connection parts of the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2. When the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2 are combined and sleeved outside the waxberry fruit, the semi-circular hollow areas on their respective bodies combine to form a complete branch hole 4, and the waxberry branch passes through the inside of the branch hole 4 to ensure that the fruit sleeve can be sleeved outside the fruit without damaging the branch. In this embodiment, both the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2 are made of plastic material, and the matching groove 11 and convex block 21 design can be integrally processed through an injection molding process. This manufacturing method not only greatly reduces the production cost, but also simplifies the production process and improves the production efficiency. The selection of plastic material also makes the fruit sleeve have the advantages of being lightweight, durable, anti-aging, etc., and is suitable for long-term use in outdoor environments.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 6 , The diameter of the end of the small hole 31 on the fruit sleeve facing the inside is larger than that of the end facing the outside. The small hole 31 forms a funnel shape with a gradually decreasing width in the cross-section towards the outside. This design can not only achieve a good ventilation and air permeability effect to ensure smooth breathing of the fruit, but also effectively prevent insects from entering the interior of the fruit sleeve. At the same time, the funnel-shaped small hole 31 has strong drainage performance and can quickly drain rainwater or dew, avoiding water accumulation inside the fruit sleeve, thereby reducing the risk of fruit rot due to a humid environment.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 5, an elastic sealing ring 41 is arranged along the inner diameter of the branch hole 4, allowing for a certain difference in the thickness of fruit tree branches and ensuring a fit with the fruit tree branches; the elastic sealing ring 41 is composed of two semi-circular sealing rings, and the elastic sealing ring 41 is respectively connected to the inside of the semi-circular hollow areas opened on the outer surfaces of the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2. In the embodiment, the elastic sealing ring 41 can be made of waterproof materials such as rubber and silica gel, which can avoid rainwater from entering the fruit sleeve along the branch without damaging the branch.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 6 , in the present invention, since the fruit shell is made of plastic material, the thorn 3 part and the outer surface of the fruit shell are also an integral structure. During processing, only need to penetrate outward from the inside of the fruit shell with a sharp tool, and then the thorn 3 and the small hole 31 with an inner diameter larger than the outer diameter and protruding outward can be conveniently and naturally formed.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 7 , in another embodiment of the present invention, the first fruit shell 1 and the second fruit shell 2 are an integral structure formed by injection molding, and they are connected by a connecting belt 8. Since the plastic material has toughness, the connecting belt 8 can be bent, without affecting the opening and closing of the first fruit shell 1 and the second fruit shell 2, enabling the user to operate without separately looking for the first fruit shell 1 and the second fruit shell 2 and then combining them, greatly reducing the operation and installation time.

[0033] The fruit sleeve is equipped with a fruit-sleeving device, which includes a handheld frame 6 and a locator 5. The locator 5 is located at the upper end of the handheld frame 6 and is fixedly connected to the handheld frame 6. The locator 5 can be opened and closed under the control of the handheld frame 6. A storage space 51 for storing the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2 is opened inside the locator 5, and a positioning hole 52 corresponding to the position of the branch hole 4 is opened at the upper vertex of the storage space 51.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 , a circumferential alignment guide groove 53 is arranged on the outer surface of the positioning hole 52. The alignment guide groove 53 is funnel-shaped, with an opening facing outward and a diameter gradually decreasing inward until it is the same as the diameter of the branch hole 4, enabling the user to operate without precisely aligning the branch, having a certain tolerance range, reducing the operation difficulty, and accelerating the work efficiency.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 11, the inner surface of the locator 5 is provided with concave holes 7 adapted to the specifications of the barbs 3. The first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2 are connected to the locator 5 through the cooperation of the barbs 3 on the outer surface and the concave holes 7. When the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2 are connected to the inside of the locator 5 through the cooperation of the barbs 3 and the concave holes 7, the positions of the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2 are unique. And at this time, the positioning hole 52 is aligned with the branch hole 4, ensuring that the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2 are accurately aligned in position when closed. This design enables the branch holes 4 on the outer surface of the fruit sleeve to exactly correspond to the positioning holes 52 on the locator 5, thus simplifying the installation process. At the same time, the precise alignment design of the positioning hole 52 and the branch hole 4 further reduces the installation error, ensuring that the fruit sleeve can perfectly fit the fruit and provide the best protection effect.

[0036] In actual operation, the user only needs to move the locator 5 near the target fruit and fix the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2 inside the locator 5 through the concave holes 7. Subsequently, close both sides of the locator 5, so that the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2 naturally merge and squeeze, and finally form a complete spherical fruit sleeve, tightly wrapping around the outside of the fruit. The whole process does not require complex adjustments or additional tools, and the operation is simple and efficient.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 1 , the handheld frame 6 includes a first handheld frame 63 and a second handheld frame 64. The upper ends of the first handheld frame 63 and the second handheld frame 64 are each connected to half of the locator 5. The first handheld frame 63 and the second handheld frame 64 are cross-symmetrically connected. A fixed shaft 62 is provided at the cross-junction. The structural principle is similar to the handle and blade of scissors. The first handheld frame 63 and the second handheld frame 64 can both rotate along the fixed shaft 62. When the first handheld frame 63 and the second handheld frame 64 rotate along the fixed shaft 62 until the locator 5 above them is closed, the locator 5 forms a complete circle. In actual operation, the combination of the first fruit sleeve 1 and the second fruit sleeve 2 inside can be realized by opening and closing the handheld frame 6.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 1 , grips 61 are provided at the lower ends of both the first handheld frame 63 and the second handheld frame 64. The grips 61 are integrally processed and connected to the first handheld frame 63 and the second handheld frame 64. In the specific design, spiral patterns can be added inside the grips 61 to increase the friction force.

[0039] In actual use, a bracket can be set at the fixed shaft 62 of the present invention. A camera can be installed on the bracket. The working direction of the camera faces the locator 5. The camera is connected to a display screen, and the screen direction of the display screen faces one end of the grip 61. In this design, the camera is powered by an independent power supply to avoid complex wiring problems. At the same time, it is wirelessly connected to the display screen through Bluetooth or WiFi, further reducing the complexity of the device and improving the flexibility and convenience of use. In addition, the wireless connection function of the camera also supports real-time picture transmission. Users can clearly observe the details of the fruits through the display screen to ensure that the installation position of the fruit bag is accurate. This design is particularly suitable for fruits at high places or in dense areas, which can significantly improve the operation efficiency and accuracy; the bracket and the camera are connected through a telescopic rod, and the connection between the camera and the telescopic rod is detachable. Through the adjustment of the telescopic rod, the camera can easily adapt to fruits at different heights without the user frequently moving or adjusting the position of the hand-held frame 6. To further optimize the user experience, the telescopic rod can be driven and controlled by a motor. The telescopic rod driven by the motor is not only small in size and easy to carry, but also can achieve precise height adjustment, making the operation more convenient and efficient. The user only needs to operate a simple button to control the lifting of the camera without manual adjustment, greatly reducing the operation difficulty and physical consumption; a snap ring is provided at the lower end of the bracket to achieve snap connection with a part of the fixed shaft 62 of the hand-held frame 6, so that the overall structure of the bracket will not be affected by the opening and closing of the hand-held frame 6, and the installation and disassembly are convenient.

[0040] Please refer to Figures 9-10 , in another embodiment of the present invention, the fruit bagging device includes a hand-held frame 6a and a grip 61a. The hand-held frame 6a is a hollow cylindrical structure. The grip 61a is arranged inside the hand-held frame 6a and has a degree of freedom of movement along the axis direction inside it; the upper end of the grip 61a is connected with two symmetrically distributed fixed shafts 62a. The fixed shafts 62a are made of deformable materials. Symmetrically distributed semi-circular locators 5 are respectively arranged at the upper ends of the two fixed shafts 62a. The two locators 5 jointly form a complete circle in the closed state; when the grip 61a moves downward inside the hand-held frame 6a, the two fixed shafts 62a approach each other under the limiting action of the hand-held frame 6a and form a complete circle; a pull ring is arranged at the lower end of the grip 61a to facilitate the user to perform a pulling movement on the grip 61a. The diameter of the pull ring is larger than the hollow part in the middle of the hand-held frame 6a, which plays a limiting role on the grip 61a; a chute is opened on the inner surface of the hand-held frame 6a, and a slider structure adapted to the chute is arranged on the outer surface of the grip 61a. The two limit the movement of the grip 61a inside the hand-held frame 6a; this structure can realize the opening and closing actions of the locator 5 only by using the pulling movement of the grip 61a inside the hand-held frame 6a.

[0041] In the present invention, the locator 5 can also be designed as a mesh structure with holes, which cooperates with the holes and the spikes on the outer surface of the fruit bag to achieve positioning.

[0042] Working principle: In actual use, the staff first place and fix the first fruit bag 1 and the second fruit bag 2 inside the locator 5 under the action of the concave holes 7 and the spikes 3, so that the branch holes 4 of their respective parts are aligned with the positioning holes 52, ensuring that when closed, the branch holes 4 on both sides can be combined into a complete hole; then turn on the camera 9. At this time, the picture taken by the camera 9 will be displayed on the display screen 91, enabling the operator to easily observe the real-time situation of the top locator 5. After discovering the fruit that needs to be protected, adjust the position of the locator 5, open the locator 5 using the handheld frame 6, place the fruit bag in the middle of the locator 5, and align the position of the branch hanging the fruit with the positioning hole 52. At this time, close the lower end of the handheld frame 6, so that the locators 5 on both sides drive the first fruit bag 1 and the second fruit bag 2 to move closer inward, fixing the branch and the fruit in the branch hole 4 and the fruit bag respectively to protect the fruit; after the first fruit bags 1 and the second fruit bags 2 on both sides are firmly clamped, use the handheld frame 6 at the lower end to open the locator 5 again to separate the fruit bagging device from the fruit bag.

[0043] In summary, for the spherical hard waxberry fruit bag and its fruit bagging device, through the innovative fruit bag structure and ingenious small hole design, efficient protection of the fruit is achieved, while also taking into account multiple functions such as ventilation, insect prevention, and drainage. Its split design and integrated processing method further reduce the cost and manufacturing difficulty, with high practicality and market promotion value; moreover, the present invention is also equipped with a fruit bagging device, which can easily achieve the fruit bagging operation when observing the fruit at a high position on the branch, simplifying the operation process and reducing the operation risk.
