DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] like Figure 1 to Figure 4 As shown, a tea picking machine comprises a support frame 1, two of the support frames 1 are arranged opposite to each other, a driving rod 5 is arranged between the two support frames 1, a tea picking box 2 is connected to the driving rod 5, and the tea picking box 2 is slidably connected to the driving rod 5; a tea picking opening 21 is opened on the tea picking box 2, a blade 23 assembly is arranged at the tea picking opening 21, the blade 23 assembly comprises a plurality of blades 23 connected to the tea picking opening 21 and a tool plate 3 arranged below the tea picking opening 21, a plurality of blades 23 are also arranged on the tool plate 3, the tool plate 3 is slidably arranged on the tea picking box 2, and the tool plate 3 is driven to move back and forth by the driving assembly.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, two support frames 1 are used to span the tea trees, so that the picking of tea trees at a large distance can be achieved. The tea picking box 2 slides on the driving rod 5, and the blade 23 assembly on the tea picking mouth 21 realizes tea picking. When the tea picking box 2 moves, the tea leaves enter the tea box from the tea picking mouth 21 for collection. Large-area and long-distance tea picking can be achieved without manual labor, with a high degree of automation, easy use, and reduced labor intensity of workers.

[0024] As a preferred embodiment, each of the support frames 1 is slidably provided with a mounting column 11, and the mounting column 11 is locked on the support member through a locking mechanism, and the two ends of the driving rod 5 are respectively arranged on the two mounting columns 11; a connecting block 24 is provided on one side of the tea picking box 2, and an internal threaded hole is provided in the connecting block 24, one of the driving rods 5 is provided with a thread and is rotatably connected to the two mounting columns 11, and the connecting block 24 is threadedly connected to the driving rod 5 through the internal threaded hole, and the driving rod 5 is driven by a motor, and a pulley 25 is installed on the other side of the tea picking box 2, and the pulley 25 matches the other driving rod 5, and the two ends of the driving rod 5 are respectively fixedly arranged on the two mounting columns 11.

[0025] The threaded driving rod 5 is driven by a motor to rotate, and the tea picking box 2 is limited by the connecting block 24 and another driving rod 5 to move along the driving rod 5; the design of the pulley 25 reduces friction and facilitates the movement of the tea picking box 2.

[0026] As a preferred solution, the locking mechanism includes a plurality of first connection holes 14 provided on the support frame 1 and sliding blocks 12 fixedly provided at both ends of the mounting column 11, the sliding blocks 12 being slidably connected to the support frame 1, the sliding blocks 12 being provided with second connection holes 13, and the second connection holes 13 being connected to the first connection holes 14 through latches. The mounting column 11 is slidably locked on the support frame 1 by means of latch connection of the first connection holes 14 and the second connection holes 13, so as to achieve height adjustment, which is convenient for coping with the use of tea leaves at different growth heights.

[0027] As a preferred solution, the driving assembly includes a mounting frame 4 arranged on both sides of the tea picking box 2, and a half gear 41 and a spring 42 are respectively arranged in the two mounting frames 4. The half gear 41 is rotatably connected in the mounting frame 4, and both ends of the tool plate 3 are slidably arranged in the corresponding mounting frame 4. One end of the tool plate 3 is fixedly connected to the spring 42, and the other end of the tool plate 3 is provided with a plurality of movable teeth 31. The movable teeth 31 are meshed with the half gear 41, and the half gear 41 is driven by a motor.

[0028] During specific operation, the spring 42 can be a compression spring or a tension spring. When the spring 42 is a compression spring, the half gear 41 is driven to rotate by the motor, and the half gear 41 engages with the moving tooth 31 to drive the tool plate 3 to move in the direction of the compression spring, so that the compression spring is compressed, completing the cooperation between the blades 23 to achieve the effect of cutting tea leaves; when the half gear 41 moves to a toothless state, the compression spring returns to its original shape, resets the tool plate 3, and realizes the reciprocating motion of the tool plate 3.

[0029] When the spring 42 is a tension spring, the cutter plate 3 moves in a direction away from the tension spring, so that the tension spring stretches, and similarly, the reciprocating motion of the cutter plate 3 is achieved.

[0030] As a preferred solution, a tea outlet 22 is provided on the top of the tea picking box 2, a hook 26 is provided on the top of the tea picking box 2, and a pair of clamping buckles 27 are provided on one side wall of the tea picking box 2 near the tea outlet 22. The length of the driving rod 5 determines the displacement of the tea picking box 2. When the displacement of the tea picking box 2 is too large, the internal volume of the tea picking box 2 is insufficient to store a large amount of tea leaves. At this time, a storage bag is added through the hook 26 and the clamping buckle 27, so as to facilitate the collection of a large amount of tea leaves at one time.

[0031] As a preferred solution, a universal wheel 15 is provided at the bottom of the support frame 1. The arrangement of the universal wheel 15 facilitates movement.

[0032] The utility model is described in detail above. The description of the specific embodiments is only used to help understand the method and core idea of ​​the utility model. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, without departing from the principle of the utility model, the utility model can also be improved and modified, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the scope of protection of the claims of the utility model.
