Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of cotton picker accessories, in particular to a picking spindle for a cotton picker. Background Art

[0002] When cotton crops are planted on a large scale, in order to save manpower and improve picking efficiency, cotton pickers are often used to separate cotton from cotton stalks through picking spindles. Some existing picking spindles are integrated structures, that is, the picking rod and the bevel gear are installed in one piece. When the cotton picker works for a long time, the picking teeth on the picking rod may break or be severely worn, and the bevel gear may also be severely worn. Any of these problems requires the replacement of the entire picking spindle, which results in a waste of cost and materials; of course, some picking spindles are split structures, that is, the bevel gear and the picking rod are connected together through bearings and connecting seats and other parts. This structure requires the addition of lubricating oil to rotate smoothly. All the picking spindles on the cotton picker need to be lubricated one by one, which is cumbersome to operate and has a high production cost. Utility Model Content

[0023] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments.

[0024] As shown in the figure, a picking spindle for a cotton picker comprises a bevel gear 1, a connecting rod 2 and a picking rod 3, wherein the bevel gear 1 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting rod 2, the picking rod 3 is plugged into the bottom of the connecting rod 2, and a fixing member 4 is screwed together on the outside of the picking rod 3 and the connecting rod 2, and a limiting member 5 is provided on the outside of the fixing member 4, and one end of the limiting member 5 is plugged into the picking rod 3, and the other end is plugged into the connecting rod 2. In this embodiment, the picking spindle structure is divided into two parts, namely, the picking rod 3 and the connecting rod 2 fixedly connected with the bevel gear 1, and the picking rod 3 and the connecting rod 2 are screwed together by the fixing member 4 so that the two are aligned and fixed together, and the limiting member 5 is used to circumferentially limit the picking rod 3, the connecting rod 2 and the fixing member 4 to avoid relative movement between the picking rod 3 and the fixing member 4, and between the connecting rod 2 and the fixing member 4, thereby avoiding separation between the picking rod 3 and the connecting rod 2, and also longitudinally limit the fixing member 4 to avoid the situation that the fixing member 4 is unstable in connection with the picking rod 3 or the connecting rod 2 due to a small screw connection range.

[0025] An integrally formed limiting ring 21 is provided on the circumference of the outer wall of the connecting rod 2, and the bottom of the limiting ring 21 contacts the upper surface of the fixing member 4. In this embodiment, the fixing member 4 is limited by the limiting ring 21.

[0026] The limiting member 5 includes a vertical section 51, an upper bending section 52 located on the upper side of the vertical section 51, and a lower bending section 53 located on the lower side of the vertical section 51, and the upper bending section 52 and the lower bending section 53 are arranged in the same direction; a first plug-in groove 31 is opened on the outer wall of the picking rod 3 at the lower side of the fixing member 4, and a second plug-in groove 22 is opened on the outer wall of the limiting ring 21 corresponding to the first plug-in groove 31, the upper bending section 52 of the limiting member 5 is inserted into the second plug-in groove 22, the lower bending section 53 is inserted into the first plug-in groove 31, and the vertical section 51 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the fixing member 4. In this embodiment, the limit member 5 is an integrally formed structure; while the limit member 5 performs circumferential positioning on the picking rod 3 and the connecting rod 2, it also performs longitudinal limiting on the fixing member 4, and further performs circumferential limiting on the fixing member 4, that is, ensuring that the fixing member 4 will not move longitudinally due to circumferential rotation, thereby ultimately avoiding thread slippage during operation, causing looseness between them, and even causing the picking rod 3 to separate from the connecting rod 2.

[0027] A countersunk hole 54 is provided in the middle of the vertical section 51 of the stopper 5, the fixing member 4 is an external hexagonal nut, and a threaded hole 42 is provided on the outer wall of the fixing member 4 at a position corresponding to the countersunk hole 54, a screw 6 is connected between the countersunk hole 54 and the threaded hole 42, and the stopper 5 is fixed to the outer side of the fixing member 4 by the screw 6. In this embodiment, the fixing member 4 is set as an external hexagonal nut structure, which can achieve threaded connection with the connecting rod 2 and the lifting rod 3, and can also ensure that the fixing member 4 will not rotate when the vertical section 51 of the stopper 5 is fitted and fixed to the outer side of the fixing member 4.

[0028] A third plugging slot 41 connected to the first plugging slot 31 is provided at the bottom of the fixing member 4 corresponding to the first plugging slot 31. The lower bent section 53 passes through the third plugging slot 41 and is plugged into the first plugging slot 31. While the fixing member 4 is circumferentially positioned by the limiting member 5, it is ensured that the threaded hole 42 of the fixing member 4 and the countersunk hole 54 of the limiting member 5 are aligned to facilitate the installation of the screw 6.

[0029] An integrally formed square positioning block 32 is provided at the top of the picking rod 3, and a positioning groove 23 matching the positioning block 32 is provided at the bottom end of the connecting rod 2 corresponding to the positioning block 32. The positioning block 32 is inserted into the positioning groove 23 to ensure that the picking rod 3 and the connecting rod 2 are vertically aligned, which is convenient for connecting the fixing part 4.

[0030] In this embodiment, the upper part of the picking rod 3 is a cylindrical structure, and the lower part is a conical structure, and a plurality of grooves are provided on the conical structure, and a plurality of picking teeth facing the other side of the groove are provided on one side of each groove. This design can ensure that the fixing part 4 is passed upward from the bottom of the picking rod 3 and is screwed to the upper part of the picking rod 3.

[0031] The working process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0032] Insert the positioning block 32 into the positioning groove 23 to ensure that the picking rod 3 and the connecting rod 2 are vertically aligned, and then insert the fixing piece 4 from the bottom of the picking rod 3 upward until the fixing piece 4 is screwed together with the external thread at the upper part of the picking rod 3 and abuts against the bottom of the limiting ring 21, then pass the lower bending section 53 of the limiting piece 5 through the third insertion groove 41 and insert it into the first insertion groove 31, and insert the upper bending section 52 into the second insertion groove 22, and finally fix the limiting piece 5 to the outside of the fixing piece 4 with the screw 6.

[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
