Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tea plucking machines, in particular to a servo tea plucking machine. Background Art
[0002] my country is a major producer and consumer of tea. As a natural green drink, tea is increasingly favored by consumers. At present, tea is usually picked manually or mechanically. If it is a relatively large tea mountain, the manual method is inefficient. Not only does each person pick less tea in a relatively short period of time, but a large amount of human resources are also required, which increases the operating cost. This manual tea picking method is only suitable for picking a small amount of fine tea. In order to improve the efficiency of tea picking, tea picking machines are usually used to pick tea. Tea picking machines are crop harvesting machines that pick new and tender tea leaves from the top of tea trees. According to different picking methods, they are divided into selective tea picking machines and non-selective tea picking machines. Selective tea picking machines are of the breaking type and friction type. The former uses the bending and breaking principle to pick fresh and tender tea leaves while retaining thick and old branches; the latter uses a pair of elastic picking fingers to clamp the tea leaves, relying on the static friction between the picking fingers and the tea leaves to pick new leaves while retaining old leaves and young buds. At present, tea picking machines can only adjust the height of tea picking, but cannot adjust the inclination angle of the blade, and cannot make the tea picking blade fit the top of the tea tree.
