Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of prickly pear harvesting technology, and in particular to a prickly pear harvesting machine system that prevents damage. Background Technology

[0002] Prickly pear is a wild fruit mainly distributed in Guizhou and other places. Its surface is covered with small thorns, which increases the difficulty of picking. Current prickly pear picking machine systems do not provide good protection when picking prickly pears, making it difficult to pick them gently. They cause significant damage to branches and leaves, and directly scraping the prickly pears results in a high damage rate. At the same time, it is not easy to prompt users to catch the prickly pears. Direct picking can easily cause the prickly pears to fall. When picking prickly pears manually by hand, it is also difficult to limit the tilting of the machine. If the picking angle is too vertical, the prickly pears can easily fall and hit the user, increasing the safety hazard. Summary of the Invention

The use of a pressure adjusting component makes it easy to adjust the initial gap of the arc-shaped picking tool, making it easier to adapt to prickly pears and adjust it according to needs.

[0017] In addition, the use of a handheld restraint can help limit the user's use of the handheld restraint, requiring it to be tilted or horizontal, keeping the prickly pear at the picking point in front of the user, so that it can easily fall into the net bag after picking. This avoids the user's improper operation of holding the picking device vertically, causing some prickly pears to fall downwards and hit the user's body, causing safety hazards such as injury. This structure has direct detection and can remind the user, effectively increasing safety. Attached Figure Description

[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, 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 some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the described 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.

[0034] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1 to 10 :

[0035] This invention proposes a damage-resistant prickly pear harvesting machine system, including a harvesting installation component 1, a driving device 2 mounted on the harvesting installation component 1, an arc-shaped harvesting component 3 mounted on the driving device 2, the arc-shaped harvesting component 3 being used for harvesting prickly pears, a pressure regulating component 4 mounted on the harvesting installation component 1, and a hand-held restraint component 5 mounted on the harvesting installation component 1. The harvesting installation component 1 includes a harvesting hand-held rod 101 and a control switch 102, with a handle at the end of the harvesting hand-held rod 101; the control switch 102 is fixedly mounted on the handle at the end of the harvesting hand-held rod 101.

[0036] In this embodiment, the picking installation component 1 further includes: an indicator light 103, a docking slot 104, and a net squeezing switch 105. The indicator light 103 is fixedly installed on the picking handle 101; the docking slot 104 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the picking handle 101; the docking slot 104 has an arc-shaped groove; the net squeezing switch 105 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the docking slot 104, and the net squeezing switch 105 is located in the arc-shaped groove of the docking slot 104; the docking slot 104 is used to insert the net frame; the indicator light 103 is electrically connected to the net squeezing switch 105; the driving device 2 includes: a drive motor 201 and a transmission shaft 202. The drive motor 201 is fixedly installed on the picking handle 101; the transmission shaft 202 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the drive motor 201, and the transmission shaft 202 has a hexagonal column structure; the top of the transmission shaft 202 has a threaded hole. The use of the picking installation component 1 facilitates user access. When harvesting prickly pears, the existing net is used to catch them below the arc-shaped harvesting piece 3, preventing the prickly pears from falling to the ground. The net squeeze switch 105 facilitates confirmation of the net's position, especially important when harvesting from prickly pear trees where branches and leaves can easily obstruct the net, making it difficult to detect if the net is no longer aligned with the arc-shaped harvesting piece 3. Furthermore, the structure utilizes the docking slot 104 and the net squeeze switch 105 on one side of the harvesting mounting piece 1 to indicate the correct orientation. This prevents the prickly pears from being pushed upwards by the wavy harvesting ring 303 when the harvesting mounting piece 1 is reversed, as the rotation direction of the drive shaft 202 could cause them to fall into the net. When harvesting prickly pears, the net squeeze switch 105 should be facing downwards. The net frame can then be inserted into the docking slot 104, and squeezing the net frame against the net squeeze switch 105 will activate the indicator light 103.

[0037] In this embodiment, the arc-shaped picking component 3 includes: a sleeve 301, a round tube 302, and a wavy picking ring 303. The inner side of the sleeve 301 has a hexagonal hole; there are three sleeves 301; the three sleeves 301 are respectively sleeved onto the drive shaft 202; four round tubes 302 are fixedly installed on each of the three sleeves 301; rubber sleeves are respectively fitted onto the four round tubes 302; and the wavy picking ring 303 is fixedly installed on each of the four round tubes 302, and the wavy picking ring 303 has a wavy structure. Three wavy picking rings 303 are staggered; adjacent wavy picking rings 303 are used to cooperate with the round tube 302 to pick prickly pears; the arc-shaped picking component 3 also includes: springs 304, three springs 304 are sleeved on the drive shaft 202, and the three springs 304 are respectively located below the three sleeves 301; the two upper springs 304 are respectively located above the two lower sleeves 301; the pressure regulating component 4 includes: a lower pressure cylinder 401, the lower pressure cylinder 401 is slidably sleeved on the drive shaft 202; the lower pressure cylinder 40 1. A sleeve 301 is used to press down on the upper part; the pressure regulating component 4 also includes: a pressing bolt 402, which is rotatably mounted on the pressing cylinder 401, and a handwheel is provided on the pressing bolt 402; the pressing bolt 402 is threadedly connected to the transmission shaft 202, and an arc-shaped picking component 3 is used. The wave-shaped arc structure of the wave-shaped picking ring 303 can reduce damage when picking prickly pears, and also reduce damage to branches and leaves. At the same time, the rubber sleeve on the round tube 302 can also assist in elastic contact with the prickly pear. To reduce the damage rate, the pressure regulating component 4 can be used to easily adjust the initial gap of the arc-shaped picking component 3, making it easier to adapt to prickly pears. It can be adjusted according to needs, making it more flexible to use. When the wavy picking ring 303 rotates, the wavy curved openings of the two adjacent wavy picking rings 303 can facilitate the entry of prickly pears. As the wavy picking ring 303 rotates, the round tubes 302 on the two adjacent wavy picking rings 303 will stop the prickly pears near each other because the gap is small, thus assisting in picking the prickly pears.

[0038] In Example 2, based on Example 1, the handheld restraint 5 includes: a restraint mounting shell 501, a ball collar 502, and a swing rod 503. The restraint mounting shell 501 is threadedly connected to the picking handheld rod 101. The ball collar 502 is fixedly mounted on the restraint mounting shell 501. The ball collar 502 has a spherical hole. The end of the swing rod 503 has a ball head. The ball head at the end of the swing rod 503 is fitted into the ball collar 502. The restraint mounting shell 501 has two through holes. The handheld restraint 5 also includes: a charging ball 5031, which is fixedly mounted on the swing rod 503. The charging ball 5031 is an iron counterweight ball. The handheld restraint 5 also includes: a detection mounting ring 504 and charging plates 505. The detection mounting ring 504 is fixedly mounted inside the restraint mounting shell 501. Two rings of charging plates 505 are fixedly mounted inside the detection mounting ring 504. 505 are arc-shaped spring sheet structures; the electric ball 5031 is used to attach to the two rings of electric contact pieces 505; the two rings of electric contact pieces 505, the control switch 102, and the drive motor 201 are connected in series with a power supply. The handheld restraint piece 5 can help limit the user's use of the handheld restraint piece 5, requiring tilting or horizontal use, keeping the prickly pear at the picking point in front of the user, so that it can fall into the net bag after picking, and avoiding the user's violation of the vertical handheld picking device 1, which may cause some prickly pears to fall downwards and hit the user's body, causing safety hazards such as injury. The detection is direct and can remind the user, which can effectively increase safety. Once the handheld picking handle 101 is too vertical, the electric ball 5031 will no longer attach to the two rings of electric contact pieces 505 under the action of gravity. At this time, the electric contact pieces 505 will no longer be energized, and the drive motor 201 will also not be energized, thus limiting the user's timely adjustment.

[0039] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: First, when it is necessary to harvest prickly pears, the net bag squeezing switch 105 should be facing downwards. At this time, the net bag frame can be inserted into the docking slot 104, and the net bag frame is squeezed. The net bag squeezing switch 105 controls the indicator light 103 to light up, indicating that the prickly pear harvesting can proceed normally. After the prickly pear is picked by rotating downwards with the wavy picking ring 303 in conjunction with the round tube 302, it can fall directly into the net bag. When the picking hand handle 101 is tilted and the control switch 102 is pressed to start the drive motor 201, the mounting shell 501 is tilted. When the mounting shell 501 is tilted, the contact ball 5031 can fall naturally and fit with the two contact plates 505 under the action of gravity. The ball head on the swing rod 503 is fitted into the ball collar 502 and can rotate naturally to adapt. By attaching the electric ball 5031 to the two rings of electric contact plates 505, the power can be connected, ensuring that the drive motor 201 can be powered on normally to drive the harvesting work. When the drive motor 201 drives the transmission shaft 202 to rotate, it can drive the sleeve 301 to rotate, which in turn drives the round tube 302 and the wavy harvesting ring 303 to rotate together. When the wavy harvesting ring 303 rotates, the wavy curved openings of the two adjacent wavy harvesting rings 303 are aligned with the prickly pear, which can facilitate the prickly pear to enter. As the wavy harvesting ring 303 rotates, the round tubes 302 on the two adjacent wavy harvesting rings 303 will stop the prickly pear due to the small gap, which helps to pick the prickly pear. At the same time, when the three wavy harvesting rings 303 rotate, the three springs 304 can play an elastic buffer support role, and the flexible support reduces damage.

[0040] If the hand-held harvesting handle 101 is too vertical, the electric ball 5031 will no longer maintain contact with the two electric contact pieces 505 under the action of gravity. At this time, the electric contact pieces 505 will no longer be energized, and the drive motor 201 will also be unable to be energized, thus limiting the user's ability to make timely adjustments.
