Camellia fruit picking device with surrounding pneumatic structure
The camellia fruit harvesting device with an enclosed pneumatic structure utilizes a drone to carry a hollow cylindrical plate and a shower-shaped hollow tube. Combined with a servo motor and an electric push rod to adjust the airflow, it solves the problems of inconvenient movement and fruit damage in complex terrain of existing devices, and achieves efficient and all-round camellia fruit harvesting.

AI Technical Summary
Existing camellia fruit harvesting devices are mostly ground-based structures, which are difficult to adapt to mountainous and hilly terrains. They cannot efficiently harvest the fruit from tall camellia trees and are prone to damaging the fruit. The harvesting angle is fixed, making it impossible to harvest from all directions. The airflow control is inflexible, leading to problems such as missed harvesting and broken branches.
Design a camellia fruit harvesting device with an enclosed pneumatic structure. The device uses a drone to carry a hollow cylindrical plate and a shower-shaped hollow tube. The direction and intensity of the airflow are adjusted by a servo motor and an electric push rod. Combined with a cutting blade, the device cuts the fruit stalk, enabling flexible angle adjustment and graded harvesting.
It enables flexible movement in complex terrain, avoids fruit damage, ensures all-round harvesting, improves harvesting efficiency and success rate, reduces labor intensity and safety hazards, and meets the needs of large-scale harvesting.
