[0032] Embodiment 1
[0033] As Figures 1-3 shown, the present utility model provides a cotton harvesting bell counting device, including a first bell counting plate 1, a second bell counting plate 2, and a connection component 5 for rotatably connecting the first bell counting plate 1 and the second bell counting plate 2;
[0034] By linearly arranging and equally spacing twenty through slots 3 in five rows and four columns on the top surfaces of the first bell counting plate 1 and the second bell counting plate 2, and arranging a bell counting slot 4 made of rubber material below the through slots 3, with a round inlet, an arc-shaped side wall, and a circular flat bottom surface. In the initial state, the front end of the bell counting slot 4 on the second bell counting plate 2 is in a flipped state and abuts against the lower part of the bell counting slot 4 on the first bell counting plate 1.
[0035] Specifically, the diameter of the circular flat bottom surface of the bell counting slot 4 is 3.5 CM, the top of the bell counting slot 4 is a round mouth with a diameter ranging from 6 to 7 CM, and the straight-line distance between the bottom plane and the top round mouth of the bell counting slot 4 is 5.5 CM. The above data is adapted to the size and shape of the cotton boll, allowing the cotton boll to completely enter the bell counting slot 4 and playing a protective role for it.
[0036] Furthermore, the first bell counting plate 1 and the second bell counting plate 2 are made of carbon fiber composite materials, so that the first bell counting plate 1 and the second bell counting plate 2 have the advantages of strong designability, light weight, good high and low temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, anti-aging, long service life, light weight, and high strength. Moreover, the corners thereof are all rounded to prevent the staff from being scratched by the corners when holding.
[0037] Embodiment 2
[0038] On the basis of Embodiment 1, specifically, as Figures 1-4As shown in the figure, the connecting component 5 is divided into a first connecting sleeve 501 and a second connecting sleeve 502 that are fixedly connected to the front and rear ends on the right side of the first bell plate 1. One end of the rotating rod 503 is rotatably connected to the first connecting sleeve 501, and the side surface of the rotating rod 503 is fixedly connected to the second bell plate 2. A positioning cavity 504 is provided in the second connecting sleeve 502. A positioning sleeve 505 is fixedly connected to the other end of the rotating rod 503, and the positioning sleeve 505 is rotatably connected to the positioning cavity 504. Two positioning through holes 506 are equidistantly arranged in a circumferential array on the front surface of the positioning cavity 504. A positioning slider 6 is slidably connected in the positioning sleeve 505. A positioning convex block 601 adapted to the positioning through hole 506 is arranged on the top surface of the positioning slider 6. A spring 602 is arranged between the positioning slider 6 and the positioning sleeve 505.
[0039] In the initial state, the spring 602 pushes up the positioning slider 6, driving the positioning convex block 601 to rise and engage in the positioning through hole 506. The first bell plate 1 can be held by pressing down the positioning convex block 601, and the second bell plate 2 is rotated counterclockwise, driving the positioning convex block 601 to contract along the rounded corner into the positioning cavity 504, causing the spring 602 to deform and store elastic potential energy. After the second bell plate 2 is fully unfolded, the positioning convex block 601 will move to another positioning through hole 506. At this time, the spring 602 will convert the previously stored elastic potential energy into kinetic energy, driving the positioning convex block 601 to rise again and engage in another positioning through hole 506, thereby completing the unfolding and fixing of the first bell plate 1 and the second bell plate 2.
[0040] Working principle:
[0041] When in use, according to the type of cotton for which bells need to be counted, it is selected whether to unfold the second bell plate 2.
[0042] For example, when counting the bells of forty-bell Sea Island cotton, the first bell plate 1 can be held by pressing down the positioning convex block 601, and the second bell plate 2 is rotated counterclockwise, driving the positioning convex block 601 to contract along the rounded corner into the positioning cavity 504, causing the spring 602 to deform and store elastic potential energy. After the second bell plate 2 is fully unfolded, the positioning convex block 601 will move to another positioning through hole 506. At this time, the spring 602 will convert the previously stored elastic potential energy into kinetic energy, driving the positioning convex block 601 to rise again and engage in another positioning through hole 506, thereby completing the unfolding and fixing of the first bell plate 1 and the second bell plate 2.
[0043] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
