Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of weeding equipment, in particular to a cutter and a weeder. Background Art

[0002] In the process of weeding with a weeder, the hydraulic module drives the cutter to rotate to achieve weeding. When weeding between crops (such as grapes), the cutter rotates a certain amplitude to form a weeding operation in a certain fan-shaped area, that is, the weeder drives the reciprocating cutter to weed. When the weeder moves forward, when it encounters a crop plant, the cutter rotates in the opposite direction and retracts. After passing the plant, the cutter rotates to weed.

[0003] During the weeding process, especially when encountering situations such as winding changes in the weeding area between plants, changes in soil hardness, changes in the flatness of the ground in the weeding area, etc., since the weeder's driving route is a route of a certain width reserved between rows of crops, the forward route is difficult to change, resulting in the tool with a certain rotating amplitude being difficult to complete the weeding work effectively and quickly, resulting in low efficiency and poor weeding effect.
