TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the mechanical technical field, specifically to a waxberry picking device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The waxberry picking work is usually carried out manually, and this operation mode has a strong dependence on the experience of the operator. During the picking process, the operator needs to identify whether the waxberry meets the preset requirements (mainly based on appearance judgment, such as whether it is eaten by birds and insects, whether there are defects such as damage on the surface of the fruit, etc.), which reduces the operation efficiency to some extent.

[0003] In addition, when picking waxberries, the leaves near the fruit are often picked together, and the excess leaves need to be separated and processed manually. The shelf life of waxberry is short, and the number of waxberry picked by industry is large. Too many processing procedures will cause the waxberry to be piled up for a long time, increasing the risk of premature decay. SUMMARY

[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a waxberry picking device that can accurately and quickly sort waxberries to solve the above problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present application can be realized by the following technical scheme: A waxberry picking device, comprising a rack, characterized in that it further comprises a feeding hopper, a feeding screw, a conveying channel, a detection lifting assembly and a storage box, the conveying channel is fixedly connected to the rack, the feeding hopper is fixedly connected to the upper part of the conveying channel, the lower end of the feeding screw is fixed axially on the rack and the feeding screw can rotate circumferentially, the upper end of the feeding screw is located in the feeding hopper, the middle part of the feeding screw is arranged at one end of the conveying channel, the lower end of the feeding hopper has a through hole, and the through hole and the side of the feeding screw form a feeding gap for the waxberry to pass through, the detection lifting assembly is inclined and connected to the rack, the lower end of the detection lifting assembly is the input end, and the upper end of the detection lifting assembly is the output end, the other end of the conveying channel is connected to the input end of the detection lifting assembly, the rack is further fixedly connected with a support, the storage box is detachably connected to the support, and the output end of the detection lifting assembly is located directly above the storage box.

[0006] In the above waxberry picking device, the feeding hopper is in the shape of a funnel, and the inner wall of the feeding hopper has a plurality of radial reinforcing ribs I along its circumference.

[0007] In the above waxberry picking device, the upper end of the feeding screw is sleeved with a positioning sleeve, the positioning sleeve is fixedly connected with the reinforcing rib II between the reinforcing rib I and the reinforcing rib II, and the reinforcing rib I and the reinforcing rib II are arranged one by one.

[0008] In the above-mentioned arbutus collecting device, the conveying channel is flat and inclined, and has a concave conveying groove along the length direction thereof, the lower end of the hopper is fixed at the corresponding side of the conveying groove, and the lowest part of the conveying channel is located directly above the input end of the lifting detection assembly.

[0009] In the above-mentioned arbutus collecting device, the rack is fixedly connected with a motor and a transmission gear set, the motor is connected with the input end of the transmission gear set, and the output end of the transmission gear set is connected with the discharging screw.

[0010] In the above-mentioned arbutus collecting device, the detection lifting assembly includes a transmission rod one, a transmission rod two and a conveying belt, the transmission rod one and the transmission rod two are movably connected to the rack and the transmission rod two is located above the transmission rod one, the conveying belt is sleeved on the transmission rod one and the transmission rod two, the conveying belt is fixedly connected with a plurality of baffles along the width direction thereof, and the plurality of baffles are evenly arranged along the length direction of the conveying belt.

[0011] In the above-mentioned arbutus collecting device, a plurality of storage boxes are detachably connected to the support along the height direction thereof.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The following is a specific embodiment of the present invention and further describes the technical solutions of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0026] As Figures 1-5 shown, the present invention includes a frame 1, a hopper 2, a feeding screw 3, a conveying channel 4, a detection lifting assembly, and a storage box 6. The conveying channel 4 is fixedly connected to the frame 1. The hopper 2 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the conveying channel 4. The lower end of the feeding screw 3 is axially fixed to the frame 1 and can rotate circumferentially. The upper end of the feeding screw 3 is located in the hopper 2. The middle part of the feeding screw 3 is arranged through one end of the conveying channel 4. The lower end of the hopper 2 has a through hole. The through hole and the side part of the feeding screw 3 form a feeding gap 7 for the passage of the waxberry. The detection lifting assembly is obliquely arranged and connected to the frame 1. The lower end of the detection lifting assembly is the input end, and the upper end is the output end. The other end of the conveying channel 4 is connected to the input end of the detection lifting assembly. The frame 1 is also fixedly connected to the support 5. The storage box 6 is detachably connected to the support 5. The output end of the detection lifting assembly is located directly above the storage box 6.

[0027] The present Yangmei collecting device is not fully automatic, and the collection still needs manual operation. However, after using the device, the Yangmei does not need to be pre-set for manual collection.

[0028] Specifically, the operator can work in a rough way, and even if individual Yangmei has defects and the leaves near the Yangmei fruit are adhered to it, it does not matter.

[0029] The operator can work in a rough way, and even if individual Yangmei has defects and the leaves near the Yangmei fruit are adhered to it, it does not matter.

[0030] Then the Yangmei enters the detection lifting assembly, and the operator can directly observe whether the Yangmei has obvious defects during the process of passing through the detection lifting assembly. If there are defects, they can be manually removed from the detection lifting assembly.

[0031] Finally, the Yangmei entering the storage box 6 is the finished product Yangmei without obvious appearance defects and with a small amount of leaves. The small amount of leaves contained in the Yangmei not only can preserve the freshness, but also have a better appearance.

[0032] Of course, after the picking operation is completed, a certain amount of Yangmei accumulates in the discharge hopper 2, and the operator then starts the Yangmei collecting device. The operator can perform fruit discrimination during the operation of the Yangmei collecting device.

[0033] The discharge hopper 2 is funnel-shaped, and the inner wall of the discharge hopper 2 has a plurality of radially distributed reinforcing ribs 21 along its circumference.

[0034] The lower end of the discharge hopper 2 is fixed to the corresponding side of the conveying groove.

[0035] Since the discharge hopper 2 has a relatively large size, the reinforcing ribs 21 and 22 can effectively improve the strength of the entire discharge hopper 2.

[0036] The conveying channel 4 is flat and inclined, and has a concave conveying groove along its length direction. The lower end of the discharge hopper 2 is fixed to the corresponding side of the conveying groove.

[0037] Since the conveying channel 4 is arranged obliquely, the red bayberries in the lower hopper 2 can enter the detection lifting assembly stably along the oblique conveying channel 4 after entering the conveying channel 4.

[0038] The rack 1 is fixedly connected with a motor 8 and a transmission gear set 9. The motor 8 is connected with the input end of the transmission gear set 9, and the output end of the transmission gear set 9 is connected with the lower discharging screw 3.

[0039] The power output by the motor 8 is adjusted to be suitable rotation through the transmission gear set, so that the lower discharging screw 3 can continuously rotate at a set speed.

[0040] The detection lifting assembly comprises a transmission rod one 10, a transmission rod two 11 and a conveying belt 12. The transmission rod one 10 and the transmission rod two 11 are movably connected to the rack 1, and the transmission rod two 11 is located above the transmission rod one 10. The conveying belt 12 is sleeved on the transmission rod one 10 and the transmission rod two 11. The conveying belt 12 is fixedly connected with a plurality of baffles 121 along the width direction of the conveying belt 12. The plurality of baffles 121 are arranged along the length direction of the conveying belt 12.

[0041] One of the transmission rod one 10 and the transmission rod two 11 is connected with a driving member. When the transmission rod one 10 continuously rotates, the conveying belt 12 can stably and continuously move.

[0042] Since the conveying belt 12 is provided with the baffles 121, the red bayberries can abut against the baffles 121, and the red bayberries can be stably conveyed from the lower part to the upper part, so as to finally ensure that the red bayberries stably enter the storage box 6.

[0043] A plurality of storage boxes 6 are detachably connected to the support 5 along the height direction of the support 5.

[0044] Only the storage box 6 at the uppermost end is used for collecting the red bayberries after being identified.

[0045] When the storage box 6 at the uppermost end is full, the storage box 6 can be detached, and another empty storage box 6 can be replaced.

[0046] The storage box 6 is a hollow cavity with an open upper end. The structure between the storage box 6 and the support 5 is similar to that of a drawer, so that the technical solutions of the embodiment will not be described in detail.

[0047] The fan 13 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the support 5 and is adjacent to the detection lifting assembly.

[0048] The red bayberries entering the detection lifting assembly can be mixed with fallen leaves. Under the action of the fan 13, the red bayberries can be appropriately cooled, and the fallen leaves can be blown away, so as to avoid the fallen leaves from entering the storage box 6.

[0049] The discharging screw rod 3 has a spiral recessed discharging groove outside, the discharging screw rod is made of PVC material and is covered with a flexible rubber layer outside the discharging screw rod 3.

[0050] The discharging screw rod 3 made of PVC material is light in weight and has sufficient strength, and the flexible rubber layer outside has two functions: One is to increase the friction with the waxberry to ensure that the waxberry can enter the conveying channel stably; The second is to avoid rigidly extruding the waxberry to avoid damage to the waxberry.

[0051] The machine 1 has a roller 14 at the bottom and a handle 15 at the end.

[0052] The entire waxberry collecting device can travel stably on the ground under the action of the roller 14, and the entire device can be easily pushed under the action of the handle 15.

[0053] Although the waxberry collecting device also needs manual picking, the picking is a rough operation, and the appearance of the waxberry does not need to be identified during the picking process, and it does not matter if there are too many leaves on the waxberry.

[0054] Because the rough picking can remove too many leaves during the process of the discharging hopper entering the conveying channel. At the same time, when the inspected waxberry passes through the detection lifting assembly, unqualified waxberry can be easily and intuitively removed quickly.

[0055] In addition, since the finished waxberry always enters the fixed position of the device, after replacing different storage boxes at the above-mentioned fixed position, the finished waxberry can be quickly collected. The storage box can be directly plastic-wrapped and packaged, or the finished waxberry in the storage box can be moved to the corresponding packaging position and packaged by other packaging boxes.

[0056] It can be seen that the inspected waxberry effectively reduces the labor intensity of the picking personnel, and the operation efficiency is relatively high.

[0057] The technical solutions of the above application provide a significantly different solution from the prior art, and the parts not involved in the technical solutions of the application are the same as or can be realized by the prior art, and will not be described again.

[0058] The technical solutions in the above embodiments have clearly and completely described the content of the application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the application, not all. Based on the embodiments in the application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the application.
