[0002] When picking apples, in order to prevent the apples from being damaged due to collisions during the picking process, the apples are usually picked manually or using a fruit picking tool. When the apples are picked manually, the picking height is limited, and it is not convenient to pick apples at high places. When using a picking tool to clamp the apples at high places and pull them off the branches, although it is convenient to pick the apples at high places, the branches may be damaged in the process of pulling and picking the apples. Therefore, an apple picker is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0021] Example 2
[0022] like Figure 1-3 As shown, in order to solve the problem that the apple may be scratched during the falling process, the left end of the support rod 1 is fixedly connected to a fixing ring 2, the inner side of the fixing ring 2 is fixedly connected to a cloth tube 3, the inner side of the cloth tube 3 is fixedly connected to a sponge cover 4, and through holes are provided at the lower left side of the outer side of the sponge cover 4 and the lower left side of the outer side of the cloth tube 3. When the apple falls along the sponge cover 4, the apple can be prevented from being scratched during the falling process.
[0023] Example 3
[0024] like Figure 1-3 As shown, in order to solve the problem that the apples cannot be prevented from falling quickly and the picked apples fall gradually, a positioning frame 5 fixedly connected to the support rod 1 is provided on the outer side of the cloth tube 3, and the right end of the cloth tube 3 is fixedly connected to the positioning frame 5, and the left end of the inner side of the positioning frame 5 is slidably connected with a squeezing rod 6, and the right end of the squeezing rod 6 is fixedly connected with a fixing rope 7 that penetrates the positioning frame 5 and the support rod 1, and the fixing rope 7 is slidably connected to the positioning frame 5, and the other end of the fixing rope 7 is fixedly connected to the pull rope 10. The fixing rope 7 is pulled by the pull rope 10, and the squeezing rod 6 is further pulled to squeeze the cloth tube 3 and the sponge cover 4 to deform, so that the apples can stop falling after falling on the squeezed cloth tube 3 and the sponge cover 4, so that when the pull block 9 is pulled multiple times, the picked apples can be made to fall gradually, and the apples can be prevented from falling quickly.
[0025] Example 4
[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, in order to solve the problem that the cloth tube 3 and the sponge cover 4 cannot be automatically reset after being squeezed, a first spring 8 is provided on the outside of the fixing rope 7, and the first spring 8 is fixedly connected to the squeezing rod 6 and the positioning frame 5, and the squeezing rod 6 is fixedly connected to the cloth tube 3 through a connecting rope. After the cloth tube 3 and the sponge cover 4 are squeezed, the elastic force of the first spring 8 on the squeezing rod 6 can make the squeezing rod 6 pull the cloth tube 3 and the sponge cover 4 to automatically reset through the connecting rope.
[0027] Example 5
[0028] like Figure 1-2 As shown, in order to solve the problem that apples may be injured during the picking process, a gasket 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the picking rod 13, and the gasket 14 is made of rubber. The picking rod 13 is pushed to pick the apples through the rubber gasket 14, thereby preventing the apples from being injured during the picking process.
[0029] In this embodiment, when the device is used to pick apples, the support rod 1 is held by hand so that the fixed rod 15 and the picking rod 13 are stuck on the outside of the apple stem, and then the pull block 9 is pulled, and the slider 11 is further pulled by the pull rope 10 to compress the second spring 12. At this time, the fixed rod 15 will support the apple branch, and the picking rod 13 will push the apple down through the rubber gasket 14 to perform the picking operation. After the apple is picked, it will fall along the cloth tube 3. In the process of the apple falling, because the pull rope 10 is pulled by the pull block 9, the pull rope 10 will also pull the extrusion rod 6 through the fixed rope 7 to compress the second spring 12. A spring 8 is used to squeeze the cloth tube 3 and the sponge cover 4 through the squeezing rod 6. When the apple falls to a position where the cloth tube 3 and the sponge cover 4 are squeezed, the apple will stop falling. When the pulling of the pulling block 9 is released, the squeezing rod 6 will pull the cloth tube 3 and the sponge cover 4 to reset through the connecting rope under the recovery of the elastic force of the first spring 8, and then the apple will continue to fall. At this time, you only need to repeatedly pull the pulling block 9 to make the apple gradually fall into the bottom of the sponge cover 4. Finally, you only need to manually take the apple out of the through hole at the lower left of the cloth tube 3 and the sponge cover 4 to continue using the device.
