[0002] The full name of the branch chipper is a branch shredder, which is an agricultural tool that can be used to cut and crush branches and crop straw with a diameter of less than 20 cm. For example, in fruit tree plantations, branches need to be pruned regularly every year. The use of branch chippers can effectively avoid the accumulation of a large number of discarded branches and occupy storage space. The produced branch debris can also be cultivated on the spot or converted into cultivation substrates, etc., which plays a role in fertilizing the soil.

[0003] In response to such needs, the shredder often needs to be designed as a mobile device so that users can walk directly in the orchard area. In the prior art, the mobile shredder is only equipped with a set of power devices, which provide driving force for the movement and crushing of the shredder through power switching during use. Although such a design can reduce the bulkiness of the product structure and ensure the throughput, it cannot provide a synchronous operation mode of crushing while walking. Not only is the efficiency relatively low, but the frequent switching of power at different stations will also increase the workload of the operators. Utility Model Content

[0024] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with embodiments and drawings.

[0025] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, a dual-power crawler type branch shredder, the structure of which consists of a frame platform 1, a crawler mechanism 2, a crushing power module 3, a crushing mechanism 4, a travel power module 5, a transmission assembly 6, and a gearbox 7. Among them, the frame platform 1 is arranged in the horizontal direction and has an assembly support platform. There are two sets of crawler mechanisms 2, which are symmetrically installed on the lower side of the frame platform 1. The crushing power module 3, the crushing mechanism 4 and the travel power module 5 are arranged in sequence along the length direction on the upper side of the frame platform 1. The gearbox 7 is installed on the lower side of the frame platform 1 at a position corresponding to the travel power module 5. The travel power module 5, the gearbox 7, and the crawler mechanism 2 are sequentially connected in transmission. The travel power module 5 can be an electric motor or an engine. In this embodiment, the engine is preferably used. After the travel power module 5 is started, the crawler mechanism 2 can be driven to move under the transmission action of the gearbox 7 to realize the walking and moving function of the branch shredder.

[0026] The crushing mechanism 4 has a crushing bin 4a located in the middle of the frame platform 1, and a feed bin 4b and a discharge bin 4c are respectively provided at the front and rear ends of the crushing bin 4a, wherein the feed bin 4b extends obliquely upward from the rear end of the crushing bin 4a to the rear, and this structure allows a certain assembly space between the lower side of the feed bin 4b and the frame platform 1, and the crushing power module 3 is just assembled in this area. The discharge bin 4c extends vertically upward from the front end of the crushing bin 4a. A cutting tool 4d is rotatably installed in the crushing bin 4a, and the cutting tool 4d is connected to the crushing power module 3 through the transmission assembly 6. Based on this, after putting crops such as branches and straws from the crushing bin 4a, the crushing power module 3 drives the cutting tool 4d to rotate through the transmission assembly 6, so that the branches can be crushed. The crushing power module 3 can be an electric motor or an engine.

[0027] Based on the above structural layout of the branch shredder, without adding extra space, the branch shredder is integrated with two power sources at the same time, and the branch shredder can realize the crushing operation while walking in the orchard area.

[0028] Please refer to the attached Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the crushing power module 3 is an oil-burning engine, the cutting tool 4d is rotatably installed in the crushing bin 4a through the support shaft a, one end of the support shaft a passes outwardly through the side wall of the crushing bin 4a, and the transmission assembly 6 is a pulley assembly, which includes two synchronous wheels and a rotating belt sleeved on the two synchronous wheels, one of which is fixedly sleeved on the engine output shaft, and the other is fixedly sleeved on the part of the support shaft a passing through the side wall of the crushing bin 4a. Figure 4 It can be seen that the cutting tool 4d includes a plurality of blade discs 4d1 arrayed and fixed on the supporting shaft a, and the blade discs 4d1 are provided with crushing teeth b distributed circumferentially. In the present embodiment, the crushing teeth b on each blade disc 4d1 are arranged in a staggered manner. With such a design, after the branches are put into the feed bin 4b, the blade disc 4d1 with the crushing teeth b arranged in a staggered manner can cut and crush branches at any position and angle at the first time, thereby significantly improving the efficiency of the crushing operation.

[0029] For example Figure 1 As shown, a wheel frame 1a is fixedly arranged at the lower side of the vehicle frame platform 1, and the track mechanism 2 includes a driving wheel 2a, a driven wheel 2b, and a track body 2c which is sleeved on the driving and driven wheels. The driving wheel 2a is rotatably mounted at the front end of the wheel frame 1a, and the driven wheel 2b is rotatably mounted at the rear end of the wheel frame 1a. Four supporting wheels 2d distributed in an array are rotatably mounted at the lower side of the wheel frame 1a, and the lower side of each supporting wheel 2d is rollingly supported in the track body 2c. The gearbox 7 is installed at the front end of the lower side of the vehicle frame platform 1. Figure 5 As shown, the driving wheels 2a of the crawler mechanisms 2 on both sides are connected to a main shaft c, which runs through the gearbox 7 and is connected to the internal mechanism of the gearbox 7. The gearbox 7 is connected to the travel power module 5 through the pulley system d. Based on this, the travel power module 5 can drive the driving wheel 2a to rotate through the pulley system d, the gearbox 7, and the main shaft c in sequence, thereby realizing the travel function.
