Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of astragalus harvesting, and particularly relates to an astragalus harvesting device. Background Art
[0002] Astragalus is a perennial herb with a wide planting area in my country. It is an important Chinese herbal medicine. However, since Astragalus is a deep-rooted herb with a deep underground part, it requires a lot of physical strength to dig it up, so it needs to be harvested mechanically or manually. Since manual harvesting of Astragalus is labor-intensive, time-consuming, and extremely inefficient, most of the harvesting is replaced by machinery.
[0003] However, the existing astragalus harvester is large in size and inconvenient to carry and transport, and is therefore not suitable for harvesting astragalus in the wild. Therefore, we propose an astragalus harvesting device to solve the above problem. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model aims to solve the problem that the existing astragalus harvester is large in size, inconvenient to carry and transport, and therefore unsuitable for harvesting astragalus in the wild.
[0005] In order to achieve the above technical objectives, the technical solutions adopted by this utility model are as follows:
[0006] An astragalus harvesting device includes an annular base plate and multiple insertion rods. The annular base plate is provided with multiple inclined slots. The multiple insertion rods are movably inserted into the multiple inclined slots. One end of the multiple insertion rods is provided with a tip, and the other end is fixedly installed with a limiting end. When the multiple insertion rods are fully inserted into the inclined slots and the limiting end contacts the upper end of the annular base plate, the tips of the multiple insertion rods gather toward the bottom center of the annular base plate. The annular base plate is provided with a pulling mechanism that can drive the annular base plate and the multiple insertion rods upward away from the ground.
[0007] It is further defined that the pulling mechanism includes two inverted fixed cylinders and two hydraulic cylinders. The two fixed cylinders are fixedly mounted with the upper ends of an annular base plate. The annular base plate is provided with two circular holes corresponding to the barrel openings of the two fixed cylinders. The two hydraulic cylinders are respectively arranged in the two fixed cylinders. The ends of the two hydraulic cylinders are fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the two fixed cylinders. Both hydraulic cylinders are fixedly connected to an infusion tube. The end of the infusion tube passes through the fixed cylinder. The end of the infusion tube passing through the fixed cylinder is provided with a hydraulic pump. A housing is fixedly mounted on the hydraulic pump. The housing is provided with a battery that can supply energy to the hydraulic pump and a control switch that controls the opening and closing of its circuit. With this structural design, the operation of the hydraulic pump can control the extension and contraction of the hydraulic cylinder, which can lift the annular base plate and the insertion rod upward, making it more labor-saving when used.
[0008] Further defined, the lower ends of the two hydraulic cylinders are fixedly mounted with adapter columns, on which a rotating contact plate is rotatably mounted, and the lower ends of the rotating contact plates are provided with a plurality of anti-slip grooves. This structural design allows the rotating contact plates to contact the ground, increasing the contact area and providing more stable support for the ends of the hydraulic cylinders.
[0009] The invention further defines a fixing bracket fixedly mounted in the center of the annular base plate, a fixing column fixedly mounted on the upper end of the fixing bracket, the hydraulic pump and housing fixedly mounted on the fixing column, and a fixing handle fixedly mounted on the upper end of the fixing column. This structural design allows the fixing handle and fixing column to control the movement direction of the annular base plate during operation of the hydraulic cylinder, thereby improving the efficiency of astragalus root extraction.
[0010] Furthermore, the bottom of the annular base plate is fixedly mounted with a plurality of gripping spikes. With this structural design, the gripping spikes can increase the gripping force of the annular base plate, thereby improving the stability of the annular base plate and reducing the probability of the annular base plate moving due to external forces.
[0011] The utility model adopting the above technical solution has the following advantages:
[0012] According to the utility model, multiple insertion rods are inserted into the soil where the astragalus is located along the inclined slots to enclose the roots of the astragalus. At this time, the pulling-up mechanism can drive the annular bottom plate and the multiple insertion rods to move upward together, so that the astragalus together with the soil around the astragalus can be driven upward and the astragalus can be pulled out of the soil. The whole device is small in size and easy to carry, which is convenient for digging and harvesting wild astragalus. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that similar or identical parts in the drawings or in the specification are numbered the same. Implementations not shown or described in the drawings are forms known to those skilled in the art.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an astragalus harvesting device of the present invention includes an annular base plate 1 and multiple insertion rods 2. The annular base plate 1 is provided with multiple inclined slots 11, and the multiple insertion rods 2 are movably inserted into the multiple inclined slots 11. One end of the multiple insertion rods 2 is provided with a tip, and the other end is fixedly installed with a limited end 21. When the multiple insertion rods 2 are fully inserted into the inclined slots 11, the limited end 21 conflicts with the upper end of the annular base plate 1, and the tips of the multiple insertion rods 2 gather toward the center below the annular base plate 1. When the multiple insertion rods 2 are obliquely inserted into the soil, the astragalus roots will be enclosed. When the annular base plate 1 moves upward, an upward force is generated on the insertion rods 2 through the limited end 21, and the insertion rods 2 and the soil enclosed in the insertion rods 2 are lifted upward. A pulling mechanism 3 is provided on the annular base plate 1, which can drive the annular base plate 1 and the multiple insertion rods 2 upward away from the ground, and a plurality of gripping nails 5 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the annular base plate 1.
[0029] The pulling mechanism 3 includes two inverted fixed cylinders 31 and two hydraulic cylinders 32. The two fixed cylinders 31 are fixedly mounted with the upper end of the annular base plate 1. The annular base plate 1 is provided with two circular holes corresponding to the tube openings of the two fixed cylinders 31. The two hydraulic cylinders 32 are respectively arranged in the two fixed cylinders 31. The lower ends of the two hydraulic cylinders 32 are fixedly mounted with adapter columns 321. A rotating contact disk 322 is rotatably mounted on the adapter column 321. The lower end of the rotating contact disk 322 is provided with a plurality of anti-slip grooves. The ends of the two hydraulic cylinders 32 are fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the two fixed cylinders 31. Both hydraulic cylinders 32 are fixedly connected with an infusion tube 33, and the end of the infusion tube 33 passes through the fixed cylinder 31. A hydraulic pump 34 is provided at one end of the infusion tube 33 passing through the fixed cylinder 31, and a shell 35 is fixedly installed on the hydraulic pump 34. A battery that can supply energy to the hydraulic pump 34 and a control switch that controls the opening and closing of its circuit are provided in the shell 35. A fixing frame 4 is fixedly installed at the center of the annular base plate 1, and a fixing column 41 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the fixing frame 4. The hydraulic pump 34 and the shell 35 are fixedly installed on the fixing column 41, and a fixed handle 42 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the fixing column 41.
[0030] The method of using the utility model is as follows:
[0031] Place the annular base plate 1 above the soil where the Astragalus is located, apply force to the upper end of the annular base plate 1 to make the gripping spikes 5 penetrate into the soil, which can increase the gripping force of the annular base plate 1, so that the tips of the insertion rods 2 are inserted into the inclined slots 11, and then use a hammer to hit the limiting ends 21 to make the insertion rods 2 sink into the soil until the limiting ends 21 of multiple insertion rods 2 contact the top of the annular base plate 1. At this time, multiple insertion rods 2 will enclose the Astragalus in the soil;
[0032] The hydraulic pump 34 is controlled by the control switch to make the movable end of the hydraulic cylinder 32 in an extended state. The rotating contact plate 322 at the end of the hydraulic cylinder 32 contacts the ground, providing a stable supporting force for the movable end of the hydraulic cylinder 32. As the hydraulic cylinder 32 extends, the annular base plate 1 and the insertion rod 2 will be forced to be pushed upward, and the astragalus and the soil outside the astragalus will be pulled out together. The lifting direction of the annular base plate 1 can be adjusted by the fixed handle 42 and the fixed column 41, so as to facilitate the flexible adjustment of the lifting direction of the astragalus harvesting device when pulling out the astragalus, thereby improving the harvesting efficiency of the astragalus.
[0033] The above describes in detail the Astragalus harvesting device provided by the present invention. The description of the specific embodiments is intended only to facilitate understanding of the method and core concept of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art may make various improvements and modifications to the present invention without departing from the principles of the present invention, and such improvements and modifications also fall within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
