[0021] In this embodiment, the twisting device includes a second fixed block 3 and a movable block 32. A third driving gear 38 is installed inside the second fixed block 3. A second driven wheel 35 and a third driven wheel 36 are arranged on one side of the third driving gear 38. A fourth driven wheel 37 is arranged below the third driven wheel 36.

[0022] Specifically, a guide plate 34 is installed on one side of the movable block 32, a groove is provided near the guide plate 34 of the second fixed block 3, a guide column 33 is installed on the inner wall of the groove, a guide groove 341 is provided on the guide plate 34, the guide groove 341 is slidably matched with the guide column 33, a rack 342 is installed on the outer wall of the guide plate 34, and a second driving gear 31 is installed inside the second fixed block 3. The guide plate 34 is driven to rotate by the second driving gear 31, thereby driving the movement of the entire movable block 32, realizing the rotation of the twisting clamp 5, and twisting the treetop.

[0023] Furthermore, the axis of the second drive gear 31 is driven to rotate by a motor, the axis of the third drive gear 38 is driven to rotate by a motor, the second drive gear 31 is meshed with the rack 342, the third drive gear 38 is meshed with the second driven wheel 35, the axis of the second driven wheel 35 is connected to one end of the upper semicircle of the twist tip clamp 5, the third drive gear 38 is meshed with the third driven wheel 36, the third driven wheel 36 is meshed with the fourth driven wheel 37, and the axis of the fourth driven wheel 37 is connected to one end of the lower semicircle of the twist tip clamp 5.

[0024] Furthermore, the axis of the first driving gear 21 is driven to rotate by the motor, and the first driving gear 21 is meshed with the first driven gear 22 . The first driving gear 21 drives the first driven gear 22 to rotate, thereby realizing the clamping action of the tip bar fixing clamp 4 .

[0025] Furthermore, latex pads are installed on the inner side of the semicircular structure of the tip fixing clamp 4 and the tip twisting clamp 5. The latex pads are axially arranged and arranged at equal intervals along the inner side of the semicircular structure to avoid pinching the treetops.

[0026] Furthermore, the tip fixing clamp 4 and the tip twisting clamp 5 include two semicircular structures, the end of the upper semicircular structure is provided with a slide groove, and the thickness of the lower semicircular structure is adapted to the inner width of the slide groove, so as to facilitate the relative rotation and closing of the semicircular structures of the tip fixing clamp 4 and the tip twisting clamp 5 to achieve the clamping of treetops with different diameters.

[0027] When the apple tip twisting device of the utility model is used, first, the operator moves the device to the apple tree branch to be twisted by means of the handle 1. Then, the branch is fixed by means of the tip fixing clamp 4. The tip fixing clamp 4 is composed of two semicircular structures, which can be driven to open and close by the meshing of the first driving gear 21 and the first driven gear 22. When the first driving gear 21 rotates under the drive of the motor, it drives the first driven gear 22 to rotate, thereby closing the two semicircular structures of the tip fixing clamp 4 and firmly clamping the branch.

[0028] After the branches are fixed, the tip twister starts to work. The main component of the tip twister is the tip twister 5, which is also composed of two semicircular structures. The opening and closing and rotation of the tip twister 5 are controlled by a series of gears and motors. When the third driving gear 38 rotates under the drive of the motor, it drives the second driven wheel 35, the third driven wheel 36 and the fourth driven wheel 37 to rotate. The axis centers of these driven wheels are respectively connected to the upper and lower semicircles of the tip twister 5, thereby realizing the opening and closing action of the tip twister 5.

[0029] At the same time, the movable block 32, driven by the second driving gear 31, realizes precise twisting motion through the sliding cooperation between the guide groove 341 on the guide plate 34 and the guide column 33. The second driving gear 31 is meshed with the rack 342. When the second driving gear 31 rotates, it drives the guide plate 34 and the movable block 32 to move along the guide column 33, thereby causing the twisting clip 5 to twist the branch at a certain angle.

[0030] During the entire twisting process, the latex pads inside the tip bar fixing clamp 4 and the tip twisting clamp 5 play a protective role to prevent the branch from being damaged during the twisting process. At the same time, the semicircular structure design of the tip bar fixing clamp 4 and the tip twisting clamp 5 and the adaptability of the slide groove enable the device to clamp branches of different diameters.
