DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The following is combined with Figure 1-3 This application is described in further detail.

[0021] The present application embodiment discloses a device for picking Euryale ferox. Figure 1-3A device for picking water chestnuts comprises a gripping rod 1, one end of which is fixedly connected to a mounting tube 2 via a connecting block 3, a shearing mechanism is installed at one end of the mounting tube 2 away from the connecting block 3, the shearing mechanism comprises a first cutter 8 and a second cutter 9, the first cutter 8 and the second cutter 9 are symmetrically arranged, and the first cutter 8 and the second cutter 9 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the end of the mounting tube 2 away from the connecting block 3 via a rotating shaft 10;

[0022] A driving assembly for driving the shearing mechanism is installed on the inner wall of the gripping rod 1 and the mounting tube 2, and the driving assembly includes a piston 4 slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting tube 2, and a movable rod 5 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the piston 4 on the side away from the connecting block 3, and the end of the movable rod 5 away from the piston 4 passes through the mounting tube 2 and is fixedly connected to a connecting head 6, and the outer wall of the connecting head 6 is rotatably connected to two hinged rods 7, and the ends of the two hinged rods 7 away from the connecting head 6 are respectively hinged to the outer walls of the first cutter 8 and the second cutter 9.

[0023] The driving assembly also includes an electric push rod 13 fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the handle 1 , the output end of the electric push rod 13 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 12 , and one end of the connecting rod 12 away from the electric push rod 13 passes through the connecting block 3 and is fixedly connected to the piston 4 .

[0024] A spring 11 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the piston 4 opposite to the connecting block 3. The spring 11 is sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod 12. When the piston 4 slides outward, it will pull the spring 11, so that the spring 11 forms an accumulated pulling force. When the output end of the electric push rod 13 contracts, the piston 4 is driven to reset through the connecting rod 12. The pulling force of the spring 11 can assist the piston 4 in resetting, so that the traction force on the piston 4 on one surface is uniform.

[0025] A bracket 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the installation tube 2 close to the rotating shaft 10 , and a net bag 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the bracket 14 away from the installation tube 2 .

[0026] The net bag 15 is located directly below the first cutter 8 and the second cutter 9. A counterweight 16 is installed at the bottom of the net bag 15. The counterweight 16 and the bottom of the net bag 15 are sunk into the water, so that the net bag 15 forms a bag net with capacity, avoiding the bottom of the net bag 15 floating on the water surface, so that the cut water chestnut fruits cannot be received.

[0027] The implementation principle of a water chestnut picking device in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: during the picking process, first, the first cutter 8 and the second cutter 9 are aligned with the water chestnut fruit, and then the electric push rod 13 is started, the output end of the electric push rod 13 is extended to push the connecting rod 12 to move, and the connecting rod 12 pushes the piston 4 to move in the movable rod 5, and the movable rod 5 pushes the connecting head 6 outward to move, and the connecting head 6 causes the two hinged rods 7 to rotate, and the ends of the two hinged rods 7 away from the connecting head 6 symmetrically push the first cutter 8 and the second cutter 9 to make the first cutter 8 rotate clockwise around the rotating shaft 10, and the second cutter 9 rotates counterclockwise around the rotating shaft 10, thereby shearing the water chestnut fruit. The sheared water chestnut fruit sinks under the influence of gravity and falls into the net bag 15 for collection, thereby avoiding the water chestnut fruit from falling into the water, eliminating the salvage process, and reducing the picking cost. After the picking is completed, the water chestnut fruit can be taken out of the net bag 15 and sent to the containing basket.
