Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to an auxiliary device, in particular to an auxiliary device for navel orange picking. Background Art
[0002] When navel oranges are ripe, they need to be picked and taken down from the tree. The quality of the harvesting technique is directly related to the storability of navel orange fruits. Fruit picking without damage is the key to reducing diseases during the fruit storage period.
[0003] To ensure the fruit quality, during picking, workers need to pay extra attention. When cutting the fruits off the tree and putting them into the basket, it is necessary to ensure gentle cutting and gentle placing to avoid the fruits being deformed or damaged due to force, resulting in damage during navel orange picking. During navel orange picking, usually workers place the basket / barrel for storing fruits beside the fruit tree, use scissors to cut off the fruit stalks of the ripe and good fruits on the navel orange tree, and place the cut navel oranges in the basket / barrel for centralized placement. To avoid damage, when placing the cut navel oranges, workers need to move to a position close to the basket / barrel and gently place the navel oranges into it. Usually, the fruits on a fruit tree are distributed unevenly, and the cutting points are constantly changing. When the container for placing navel oranges is far from the picking point on the tree, workers need to frequently move the container or constantly move back and forth between the cutting point and the placing point. And when picking navel oranges at a higher position, workers use a step ladder to assist in picking. After picking, when putting the fruits, workers need to frequently climb the step ladder or other workers need to pass the fruits. The repeated movements during picking and placing navel oranges and passing navel oranges through other workers will undoubtedly lead to a reduction in picking efficiency and a waste of labor costs.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0018] The following describes the embodiments of the utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0019] Embodiment 1: An auxiliary device for picking navel oranges, as Figures 1-4 shown, includes a connecting plate 1, a rotating frame 2, a support base 3, an adjusting rod 1 31, a clamping plate 4, a guiding rod 41, an adjusting rod 2 5, a through pipe 6, a material conveying pipe 61 and a bending support rod 62. Rotating frames 2 are rotatably arranged on both the left and right sides of the connecting plate 1. Support bases 3 are rotatably arranged at the lower parts of the rotating frames 2. The two support bases 3 and the components installed on the support bases are symmetrically arranged. Adjusting rods 1 31 are provided at the front hinge joints of the support bases 3 and the connected rotating frames 2. The adjusting rod 31 is used to adjust the force at the hinge point of the rotating frame 2 and the support base 3. By rotating the adjusting rod 1 31, the tightness of the extrusion of the support base 3 on the rotating frame 2 is changed, the rotational force between the rotating frame 2 and the support base 3 is restricted and changed, so that the rotating frame 2 is in a rotatable or fixed state;
[0020] Among them, as Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown in the figure, the support base 3 is arranged in a U shape, with a cavity inside. Inside the cavity, there is a clamping plate 4 slidably arranged through a guide rod 41. By clamping the cavity of the support base 3 on any two parallel sides of the upper part of the navel orange container 100, and the clamping plate 4 needs to be located outside the container. On the outer side of the support base 3, there are adjusting rods two 5 threadedly arranged. One end of the adjusting rod two 5 penetrates into the inner side of the support base 3 and is rotatably connected to the clamping plate 4. By driving the clamping plate 4 to move left and right inside the support base 3 through the adjusting rod two 5, the edge of the container 100 is clamped by the clamping plate. Through the support base 3 and the clamping plate 4, the auxiliary device is integrally installed on the placed navel orange container 100; Inside the connecting plate 1, there is a through pipe 6 through which navel oranges pass. When the auxiliary device is integrally installed on the placed navel orange container 100, the through pipe 61 will be vertically located above the opening of the container 100. A feeding pipe 61 is connected to the upper port of the through pipe 6. The overall length and inner cavity size of the feeding pipe 61 are customized according to requirements. Radially arranged on the outer wall of the feeding pipe 61 are bending support rods 62 that can be adjusted arbitrarily and whose shape can be maintained after bending. The length of the bending support rod 61 is the same as the length of the feeding pipe 61. By twisting the shape of the bending support rod 62, the overall shape of the feeding pipe 61 is adjusted. When navel oranges are placed into the upper pipe orifice of the feeding pipe 61, the navel oranges will roll along the pipeline into the container 100;
[0021] Initially, the two adjusting rods one 31 are in a loose state of being unscrewed. According to the opening width of the container 100, the support base is clamped on the edges of the two sides of the upper part of the container 100 for placing navel oranges. Subsequently, the adjusting rods one 31 are tightened. By rotating the adjusting rod two, the clamping plate will clamp the container 100, so that the auxiliary device is integrally installed on the container 100. During picking, by twisting the shape of the bending support rod 62, the upper pipe orifice of the feeding pipe 61 is brought close to the navel orange cutting point. Fruits are conveyed through the feeding pipe 61, and the navel oranges roll into the navel orange container 100 through the feeding pipe 61. When the cutting point changes continuously, only by changing the shape and orientation of the feeding pipe 61, continuous cutting work can be carried out for a period of time, without the need for workers to move back and forth between the picking point and the navel orange placement point, effectively improving the picking efficiency.
[0022] Example 2: On the basis of Example 1, as Figures 1-2As shown in the figure, it also includes a rotating block 7, a support rod 71, a plug 72, a nut 73 and an adjusting rod three 74. Rotating blocks 7 are rotatably arranged at the front parts on the outer sides of the support seats 3. Nuts 73 are arranged at the rotating parts of the rotating blocks 7 and the support seats 3. Threads should be provided at the contact parts of the corresponding rotating blocks 7 and the nuts 73. The state of the rotating blocks 7 is adjusted by tightening or loosening the nuts 73 inward. Support rods 71 are slidably arranged on the inner sides of the ends of the rotating blocks 7 away from the nuts 73. The support rods 71 can slide within the rotating blocks 7. Adjusting rods three 74 are threadedly arranged on the sides of the rotating blocks 7 away from the rotating frames 2. One end of the adjusting rod three 74 penetrates into the rotating block 7 and contacts the outer side of the support rod 71. When it is necessary to fix the position of the support rod 71 within the rotating block 7, the adjusting rod three 74 is tightened, and the support rod 71 is adjusted and fixed by the adjusting rod three 74. One end of the support rod 71 is fixedly connected with a plug 72, and a top block convenient for knocking is arranged at the other end of the support rod 71. The ends of the plugs 72 are all provided with tips convenient for inserting into the ground.
[0023] Due to the inconsistency of the navel orange placement containers 100, when the support seats 3 and the clamping plates 4 are not suitable for the containers 100 and cannot effectively clamp and fix them, the support rods 71 are rotated and adjusted to a state perpendicular to the ground, and the nuts 73 are tightened to maintain the position of the support rods 71. Subsequently, according to the height of the container 100, the position of the rotating block 7 on the support rod 71 is adjusted by sliding up and down. After the adjustment is completed, the adjusting rod three 74 is rotated and tightened to fix the support rod 71 and the rotating block 7. Subsequently, the top of the support rod 71 is knocked, and the tip of the plug 72 is inserted into the ground. The auxiliary device is suspended and installed by the two support rods 71, and the container 100 is placed below the auxiliary device, and then it can be used for picking. By setting the supporting installation components on the device, during use, it can be fixedly installed without being restricted by the shape of the feeding container 100 and can be used flexibly according to requirements, with strong applicability.
[0024] In a specific embodiment: As Figure 1 and Figure 4 shown in the figure, it also includes a feed hopper 9 and a handle 91. A feed hopper 9 for guiding feeding is arranged at the upper pipe orifice of the material conveying pipe 61. The feed hopper 9 is provided with handles 91 symmetrically arranged on the left and right for conveniently adjusting the shape and position of the material conveying pipe 61. During picking, by arranging the funnel-shaped feed hopper 9 on the material conveying pipe 61, the feeding of the navel oranges put into the material conveying pipe 61 is guided, and it is not necessary for workers to accurately feed. The navel oranges are stuffed into the material conveying pipe 61. Moreover, through the feed hopper 9 at the pipe orifice, the wear of the pipe orifice of the material conveying pipe 61 during long-term use can be effectively avoided, and the service life of the material conveying pipe 61 can be improved. At the same time, by setting the handles 91, the material conveying pipe 61 is pulled for adjustment, avoiding the deformation and damage of the material conveying pipe 61 caused by workers grasping the material conveying pipe 61 during adjustment.
[0025] In a specific embodiment: As Figure 1 、 Figure 2and Figure 4 As shown in Figure 4 , it further includes a buffer bag 10. The lower part of the through pipe 6 is connected with a buffer bag 10 which is conically arranged with a large upper opening and a small lower opening. The buffer bag 10 is internally communicated with the through pipe 6 and the material conveying pipe 61. The buffer bag 10 is made of flexible wear-resistant fabric, has a certain degree of tightness, and the surface is relatively smooth. When the navel oranges roll from the material conveying pipe 61 into the container, they will pass through the conical buffer bag 10. The buffer bag 10 can effectively absorb and disperse the potential energy of the navel oranges when they fall, avoiding the damage caused by the impact of the navel oranges due to rapid falling, and further protecting the picked navel oranges.
[0026] In a specific embodiment: As Figures 1-2 shown in Figures 1-2 , it further includes a sheath 8 and a spring 81. A sheath 8 that surrounds the tip of the spike 72 and prevents the tip of the spike 72 from being exposed is slidably provided on each of the spikes 72. One end of the sheath 8 is elastically connected to the spike 72 through a spring 81. When the spike 72 is inserted into the ground, the ground will first contact one end of the sheath 8. During the process of the spike 72 being inserted downward into the ground, the spring 81 connected to the sheath 8 is squeezed by the force. The area of the side of the sheath 8 in contact with the ground is relatively large, which can effectively improve the supporting ability of the spike 72. When the spike 72 is pulled out, the spring 81 resets and pushes the sheath 8 back to its original position, protecting the tip of the spike 72 through the sheath 8 and avoiding damage to people and objects caused by the sharp part.
[0027] In a specific embodiment: As Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 , it further includes a cushion block 11. Cushion blocks 11 are provided on the inner upper parts of the support seats 3. The cushion blocks 11 are made of a rubbery material. When clamping the container 100, the cushion blocks 11 contact the force-bearing part at the edge of the top of the container 100, effectively reducing the friction between the hard support seat 3 and the container 100 and reducing the wear at the contact points of the two.
[0028] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art in this technical field, without departing from the principle of the present invention, several improvements and refinements can still be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
