Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tea harvesting technology, and in particular to a tea harvesting and collection device and method. Background Technology

[0002] In traditional tea picking, tea pickers typically use a uniform container (such as a basket or cloth bag) to hold all the picked fresh leaves. However, this method has significant drawbacks: different varieties and grades of tea (such as one bud and one leaf, one bud and two leaves, etc.) are mixed together. Subsequent processing at the processing plant or primary processing facility requires tedious sorting, which not only consumes a lot of manpower and time and easily causes confusion, but may also damage the tea leaves due to compression and friction, affecting the quality and economic benefits of the final tea. Currently, existing improvements mainly focus on improving picking machinery or processing equipment, while there is a significant deficiency in addressing the picking process itself, particularly in how to achieve rapid and accurate classification of tea leaves at the source without affecting picking efficiency. Therefore, designing a device capable of classifying and collecting tea leaves has become a problem that needs to be solved by those in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings mentioned above by providing a tea-picking and collecting device and method that enables tea to be collected according to its quality during picking, resulting in convenient and efficient collection.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a tea picking and collecting device, comprising: The container is equipped with a rotating shaft that can rotatably rotate at its internal axis. At least two partitions are arranged in a ring on the rotating shaft. The partitions can divide the interior of the container into at least two storage spaces, each of which can hold a cloth bag for storing tea leaves of different qualities. Multiple bag opening and closing components are respectively disposed on both sides of each of the partition plates. Each bag opening and closing component includes a mounting plate disposed on the partition plate. An adjusting strip is hinged to the mounting plate. A torsion spring is disposed at the hinge of the adjusting strip and the mounting plate to drive the adjusting strip to rotate toward the side of the corresponding partition plate. A hanger for hanging the bag opening is disposed on the adjusting strip. A magnetic strip that can magnetically attract each other is disposed on the adjusting strip between each two adjacent partition plates. The two adjacent partitions can be rotated to the side where they are close to each other until the corresponding magnetic strips attract each other, and the magnetic attraction force of the magnetic strips is greater than the torsion force of the torsion spring.

[0005] Furthermore, the placement container includes a cylindrical body, on which an installation ring is fitted. Both the installation ring and the lower side of the cylindrical body are hinged with switch hooks, and a fixing strap can be installed at the two switch hooks.

[0006] Furthermore, the mounting ring is rotatably fitted onto the cylinder; A temporary limiting block is slidably disposed inside the mounting ring. Multiple limiting grooves are provided on the outer wall of the cylinder in a ring-shaped arrangement. A spring is provided on the mounting ring. The spring can press the temporary limiting block toward the side closer to the cylinder, so that the temporary limiting block is inserted into the corresponding limiting groove.

[0007] Furthermore, the partition plate is rotatably mounted on the rotating shaft, and the partition plate can rotate by a corresponding angle after being pushed. It also includes multiple reset components, which are arranged in a ring on the rotating shaft, and each reset component is distributed on both sides of the corresponding partition plate. The reset components can drive the partition plate to reset after the partition plate has finished rotating.

[0008] Furthermore, the reset assembly includes a mounting platform disposed on the rotating shaft, and a reset frame is hinged to the mounting platform; A torsion spring is provided at the hinge joint between the reset frame and the mounting platform, and the corresponding reset frames on both sides of the partition plate can rotate to approach and contact the partition plate under the action of the torsion spring.

[0009] Furthermore, a handle is provided at the entrance of the container.

[0010] Furthermore, a storage cover is screwed to the bottom of the container, and the inside of the storage cover can be screwed to the bottom of the container after accommodating tea picking tools.

[0011] Furthermore, a sensor assembly is installed inside the container.

[0012] A tea-picking and collecting method includes the following steps: S1. Based on the quality of the tea leaves, select the corresponding number of cloth bags and place them into the storage spaces in sequence, separated by partitions. S2. Wrap the opening of each cloth bag around the opening and closing assembly between the two corresponding partitions. When picking tea, rotate the two adjacent adjusting strips until they contact the corresponding partitions. At this time, the opening of the corresponding cloth bag will open. After picking tea, the staff will put it into the corresponding cloth bag. S3. In the corresponding situation, the two adjacent adjustment strips can be rotated until the magnetic strip between them attracts each other. At this time, the opening area of ​​the bag is reduced to prevent the tea leaves from falling out. S4. After the corresponding cloth bag is filled with tea leaves, lift the cloth bag upwards and remove it from the container. Then, the next empty cloth bag can be placed in the same way as in step S1.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this invention are reflected in: In this invention, workers first place a corresponding number of cloth bags in each storage space, then wrap the opening of each bag around two corresponding hangers. Driven by a torsion spring, the corresponding adjusting strip rotates to contact the side wall of the partition plate, thus opening the bag. Workers can then drop tea leaves of the corresponding quality into the corresponding bag during tea picking. Under certain conditions (such as while walking), the opening and closing components of the two corresponding bags can be rotated towards each other until the two corresponding magnetic strips attract each other, thus making it easier to close the bag opening and improving the safety of temporary tea storage. After the bag is full of tea leaves, it can be lifted upwards to remove it from the storage container. Finally, another bag can be replaced for continuous tea picking. This device can classify and collect tea leaves according to their corresponding quality during tea picking, and has convenient and efficient collection efficiency for practical use.

[0016] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] Please see Figure 1-6 The present invention discloses a tea picking and collecting device, including a container 1, which has a rotating shaft 2 rotatably arranged at its internal axis. At least two partition plates 3 arranged in a ring are provided on the rotating shaft 2. The partition plates 3 can divide the interior of the container 1 into at least two storage spaces. Each storage space can hold a cloth bag for storing tea leaves, which is used to store tea leaves of different qualities.

[0018] In one embodiment, the device further includes multiple bag opening and closing components 4, which are respectively disposed on both sides of each partition plate 3. Each bag opening and closing component 4 includes a mounting plate 401 mounted on the partition plate 3. An adjusting strip 402 is hinged on the mounting plate 401. A torsion spring (not shown in the figure) is provided at the hinge point between the adjusting strip 402 and the mounting plate 401 to drive the adjusting strip 402 to rotate toward the side closer to the corresponding partition plate 3. A hanger 403 for hanging the bag opening is provided on the adjusting strip 402. A magnetic strip 404 that can magnetically attract each other is installed on the adjusting strip 402 between each two adjacent partition plates 3.

[0019] Two adjacent partition plates 3 can rotate to the side that is closer to each other until the corresponding magnetic strips 404 attract each other. The magnetic attraction force of the magnetic strips 404 is greater than the torsion force of the torsion spring.

[0020] In practice, before tea picking, staff place the corresponding number of cloth bags in each storage space, then wrap the opening of each bag around the corresponding two hanging devices 403. Driven by the torsion spring, the corresponding adjusting strip 402 rotates to contact the side wall of the partition plate 3, thus opening the bag. When picking tea, staff can drop the corresponding quality of tea into the corresponding bag. Under certain circumstances (such as when walking), the corresponding two bag opening and closing components 4 can be rotated to the side where they are close to each other until the corresponding two magnetic strips 404 are magnetically attracted to each other, thus making it easier to close the bag opening and improving the safety of temporary tea storage. After the bag is full of tea, it can be lifted up to be taken out of the storage container 1. Finally, another bag can be replaced for continuous tea picking. This device can classify and collect tea according to its corresponding quality during tea picking, and has convenient and efficient collection efficiency for practical use.

[0021] In addition, the cloth bag mentioned above can be a cloth bag with a drawstring. When the bag is full, it can be taken out and the opening can be closed for convenient temporary storage.

[0022] In one embodiment, the container 1 includes a cylindrical body 101. The cylindrical body 101 may be made of food-grade plastic and have a hollow container structure. The rotating shaft 2 and the partition plate 3 are also made of lightweight materials to facilitate carrying and use. An installation ring 102 is fitted on the cylindrical body 101. Switch hooks 103 are hinged to the installation ring 102 and the lower side of the cylindrical body 101. Fixing straps can be installed at the two switch hooks 103.

[0023] In practice, the fixing strap can be a shoulder strap or a waist belt. It can be carried by hooking its two sides to the two switch hooks 103. The fixing strap can be a wide strip structure made of breathable, soft and strong material. At the same time, the inner side of the fixing strap is equipped with a cushioning pad to improve wearing comfort. In practice, the fixing strap is equipped with adjustable buckles or Velcro so that its length can be adjusted to suit different tea pickers. The fixing strap mentioned above is common knowledge in the field, so its specific structural composition and working principle will not be described in detail in this article.

[0024] In one embodiment, the mounting ring 102 is rotatably sleeved on the cylinder 101, and a temporary limiting block 104 is provided inside the mounting ring 102 that can slide laterally. A plurality of limiting grooves 105 distributed in a ring are provided on the outer wall of the cylinder 101. A spring (not shown in the figure) is provided on the mounting ring 102. The spring can press the temporary limiting block 104 toward the side closer to the cylinder 101, so that the temporary limiting block 104 is inserted into the corresponding limiting groove 105.

[0025] In practice, a label can be affixed to the corresponding position of the cylinder 101, which indicates the quality information of the tea leaves to correspond to the cloth bags in different storage spaces. When picking tea, the staff can rotate the cylinder 101 to the corresponding angle according to the picking frequency of the tea leaves of the corresponding quality. At this time, the position of the corresponding cloth bag will be rotated to be closer to the staff's insertion position. After the rotation is completed, the temporary limiting block 104 is inserted into the corresponding limiting groove 105 under the compression of the spring, so that the cylinder 101 is temporarily limited, thus making it easier for the staff to put the tea leaves into the corresponding cloth bag.

[0026] In one embodiment, the partition plate 3 is rotatably mounted on the rotating shaft 2. The partition plate 3 can rotate by a corresponding angle after being pushed. The device also includes a plurality of reset components 5, which are arranged in a ring on the rotating shaft 2, and each reset component 5 is distributed on both sides of the corresponding partition plate 3. The reset components 5 can drive the partition plate 3 to reset after it has finished rotating.

[0027] With this design, when putting tea leaves into the cloth bag in the corresponding storage space, the staff can also push the corresponding divider 3 to rotate by hand. At this time, the corresponding storage space will temporarily increase, and the opening of the cloth bag will also increase accordingly, making tea collection more convenient and accurate.

[0028] In addition, the bag should be selected so that its opening can be adapted to the rotation of the divider plate 3 to expand or contract accordingly.

[0029] In one embodiment, the reset assembly 5 includes a mounting platform 501 mounted on the rotating shaft 2, a reset frame 502 is hinged on the mounting platform 501, and a torsion spring is provided at the hinge point between the reset frame 502 and the mounting platform 501.

[0030] In practice, the corresponding reset frames 502 on both sides of the partition plate 3 can rotate to approach and contact the partition plate 3 under the action of the torsion spring. Therefore, when the partition plate 3 is pushed, it can move normally. When the staff releases the partition plate 3, the reset frames 502 on both sides of the partition plate 3 will push the partition plate 3 to rotate and reset under the action of the torsion spring.

[0031] Preferably, the torsion spring is detachably installed at the pivot of the reset frame 502, and the torsion spring can be selected with a corresponding torque according to the actual situation.

[0032] This design allows the partition plate 3 to rotate and reset to its corresponding position, resulting in different capacities for each storage space inside the cylinder 101. Therefore, it can be adaptively adjusted according to the quantity of tea leaves of different qualities during tea picking, thus facilitating practical use.

[0033] In one embodiment, a handle 6 is installed at the entrance of the container 1.

[0034] This design also allows staff to lift the container 1 using handle 6, enabling the container 1 to be used in different ways.

[0035] In one embodiment, a storage cover 7 is screwed onto the bottom of the container 1.

[0036] In practice, the storage cover 7 can hold tea picking tools (such as drinking water bottles, cloth bags, scissors, etc.). When staff take out or put the tools into the storage cover 7, they can screw them to the bottom of the container 1.

[0037] In one embodiment, a sensor assembly is disposed inside the container 1.

[0038] In specific implementation, the sensor assembly includes, but is not limited to, temperature and humidity sensors, timers, and a corresponding number of weighing sensors. The temperature and humidity sensors are used to detect the internal and surrounding environment of the container 1, facilitating staff to determine the temporary storage conditions of the tea. The weighing sensors and timers work together. The weighing sensors detect the weight change when the tea is packed in the cloth bag. When the cloth bag is full, the staff needs to replace it. At this time, the weighing sensors send the weight change data to a remote terminal so that the staff can determine the corresponding situation of the cloth bag replacement. In conjunction with the timer, the amount of tea picked can be determined by recording the number of cloth bag replacements, so that the staff can remotely understand the tea picking situation. The sensor components mentioned above are common knowledge in the field, so their specific structural composition and working principle will not be described in detail in this article.

[0039] It also includes a tea-picking and collecting method, which specifically includes the following steps: S1. Based on the quality of the tea leaves, select the corresponding number of cloth bags and place them into the storage spaces in sequence, separated by the divider 3. S2. Wrap the opening of each cloth bag around the opening and closing assembly 4 between the two corresponding partition plates 3. When picking tea, rotate the two adjacent adjusting strips 402 until they contact the corresponding partition plates 3. At this time, the opening of the corresponding cloth bag is opened. After picking tea, the staff throw it into the corresponding cloth bag. S3. In the corresponding situation, the two adjacent adjusting strips 402 can be rotated until the magnetic strip 404 between them attracts each other. At this time, the opening area of ​​the bag opening is reduced to prevent the tea leaves from falling out. S4. After the corresponding cloth bag is filled with tea leaves, lift the cloth bag upwards and remove it from the placement container 1. Then, the next empty cloth bag can be placed in the same way as in step S1.

[0040] It should be noted that if the embodiments of the present invention involve directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.), the directional indicators are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of the components in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicators will also change accordingly.

[0041] Furthermore, if the embodiments of this invention involve descriptions such as "first" or "second," these descriptions are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.
