Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of agricultural machinery, in particular to a leek harvesting and bundling integrated machine. Background Technique
[0002] Leek, a perennial herb of the Allium genus in the Liliaceae family, has a delicious taste, a unique aroma, is rich in various nutrients, has high edible value, and is a convenient ingredient for frying and various side dishes. The seeds of leek can also be used as medicine, with the effects of warming and tonifying the liver and kidney, and strengthening yang and consolidating essence.
[0003] Since leeks grow for many years, they need to be harvested multiple times a year. The complete harvesting process includes leek cutting, laying, and bundling. When harvesting leeks, it is necessary to ensure that the roots and leaves of the leeks are not damaged. Large harvesters are often unable to perform the harvesting work. Therefore, for many years, leek harvesting in China has been mainly carried out manually, with low harvesting efficiency, and the income of vegetable farmers cannot increase. Moreover, vegetable farmers bend down to work for a long time, resulting in greater physical damage. Although there are existing push-type leek harvesters for auxiliary operations, most of them have a single function and lack a bundling function, and subsequent manual bundling operations are still required, which restricts the development of the leek industry. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] Aiming at the deficiencies of the existing technology, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a leek harvesting and bundling integrated machine, which includes a frame, a cutting mechanism, a conveying mechanism, a bunching mechanism, and a packaging mechanism.

The opening and closing motor 405 drives the cams 404 to rotate, and the cams 404 drive the rockers 403 to rotate, thereby driving the opening and closing of the opening and closing plate 402.
[0034] As Figures 6 to 8 shown in the figure, the packaging mechanism 5 includes a support bracket 501, a rack 502, a motor gear set 503, a servo 504, a clip 505, a baffle 506, a rack 507, a motor gear set 508, and a blade 509. Two racks 502 are distributed front and back and fixedly connected to the right end of the frame 1. Two motor gear sets 503 are respectively engaged on the two racks 502. The two motor gear sets 503 move left and right on the two racks 502. A support bracket 501 is fixedly connected between the two motor gear sets 503. The servo 504 is fixedly connected to the support bracket 501. A clip 505 for clamping the plastic film 6 is provided on the support bracket 501.
