Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a simple handling device for tomatoes in the field. Background Art

[0002] Tomatoes (commonly known as tomatoes), with bright fruit colors, sour and sweet tastes, and high nutritional value, are rich in a large amount of lycopene, vitamin C, vitamin B complex, carotenoids, phenolic compounds, and minerals required by the human body. They have health care effects such as lowering blood pressure and cholesterol. Regular consumption of tomato products can effectively slow down many chronic diseases and prevent the occurrence of cancer in the pancreas, intestines, mouth, etc. Among them, the phenolic acid compounds in tomatoes have antioxidant effects, which can clean up free radicals in the body, thus having a certain preventive effect on some cardiovascular diseases. Tomatoes can be eaten fresh, stir-fried, and processed into finished products such as tomato paste, tomato juice, and tomato cubes. They can also be extracted as health products and are known as "medicines on the table".

[0003] Tomatoes are one of the most consumed vegetable crops globally, and China is one of the largest tomato-producing countries in the world. With the development of agricultural technology and the increasing global demand for tomatoes, the planting area of tomatoes has gradually expanded. With the enhancement of people's health awareness and the change of dietary structure, the quality requirements for tomatoes are getting higher and higher, gradually moving towards diversification and high-endization.

[0004] Tomato planting is a labor-intensive task. When tomato fruits are ripe, they are soft and fragile and require gentle handling. Therefore, a large number of workers need to be hired to pick the tomatoes one by one by hand and put them into baskets during the harvest season. Then, they are carried basket by basket from the field, carried by people on shoulders or carried by hand, and moved outside the field for transportation. For large-scale planting bases, a large amount of manual labor is required for handling, resulting in a high labor intensity. Moreover, due to the large planting area, the time spent on manual handling is long, which greatly affects the picking efficiency. In addition, tomato fruits are relatively heavy, and the vibration during the handling process will cause the tomato fruits to be bruised or squeezed, affecting the commerciality of tomatoes, resulting in a reduction in market competitiveness and farmers' income, and affecting the planting efficiency, which urgently needs to be improved.

[0027] To make the above features and advantages of the present utility model more obvious and understandable, the following specific embodiments are given in conjunction with the attached drawings for detailed description as follows.

[0028] As Figures 1 to 5As shown, a simple tomato field transport device includes transport tracks 1 arranged horizontally and vertically on a field road, and tomato crops are planted on both sides of the field road. The transport tracks are composed of two parallel tracks 2 and track plates 3 supported at the bottom of the tracks at intervals along the extension direction of the tracks, and the track plates are embedded in the field road. Staggered and interconnected parking tracks 4 are arranged at the intersection of each transport track, and an auxiliary track-changing mechanism 5 is arranged between the parking tracks. The auxiliary track-changing mechanism includes a fixed platform 6, and a lifting platform 8 is driven to rise and fall on the fixed platform by a lifting cylinder 7. The lifting cylinder is fixed at the lower end of the fixed platform and its telescopic end passes through the fixed platform upward and is connected to the lifting platform. A rotating platform 9 is rotatably connected to the lifting platform, and the rotating platform is driven to rotate via a driving component 10.

[0029] In the embodiment of the utility model, the parking rails are composed of two parallel parking rails 11, both ends of which are connected to the rails, and the cross-section of the parking rails is U-shaped to limit the casters 13 of the trolley 12.

[0030] In the embodiment of the utility model, the horizontal and vertical intersections of the parking rails are connected and oblique chamfers 14 are set at the connected parts. The two ends of the parking rails are provided with outward guide plates 15 in an eight-shaped shape to guide the casters of the trolley. The eight-shaped guide plates can stably guide the casters into the parking rails to avoid derailment.

[0031] In an embodiment of the utility model, the driving assembly includes a cylinder 16, which is horizontally fixed on a lifting platform. The telescopic end of the cylinder is fixedly connected to a rack 17 extending in the same horizontal direction. The rack is slidably connected to the lifting platform. A gear 18 is meshed at the tooth end of the rack. The gear is coaxially fixed on a rotating shaft 19 between the rotating platform and the lifting platform for linked rotation. The lower end of the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the lifting platform, and the upper end is fixedly connected to the rotating platform.

[0032] In the embodiment of the utility model, a plurality of vertical lifting guide columns 20 are fixedly provided at the lower end of the lifting platform, and a plurality of guide holes 21 for the lifting guide columns to pass through are correspondingly opened on the fixed platform.

[0033] In the embodiment of the utility model, the opening, closing and resetting of the driving component are all common settings and will not be described in detail here.

[0034] In the embodiment of the utility model, the hand-pushing trolley comprises a loading platform 22, a plurality of casters are arranged at the bottom of the loading platform, and the casters are all provided with annular grooves 23 along their circumferences for slidingly matching with the track.

[0036] The working principle of the embodiment of the utility model is as follows: first, the picked tomatoes are put into a basket and placed on the trolley, and the tomatoes are loaded along the transport track. When the basket is full, it is pushed out along the track with ease. When it needs to be transferred to other tracks for loading or unloading, it is pushed to the parking track and then stopped. At this time, the trolley is located directly above the driving component, and then the driving component is started. The lifting cylinder lifts the lifting platform and the rotating platform, thereby driving the trolley to lift off the parking track. Then, the direction to be pushed can be selected by starting the cylinder or manually rotating the trolley 90° or 270°. By starting the cylinder, the rack is driven to slide, and the sliding of the rack drives the gear to rotate, thereby rotating the rotating table. Both of the above rotations and directions can be used to change tracks. After rotation, the lifting cylinder is reset, and the casters return to the parking track to complete the track change and steering, which effectively reduces the large amount of physical strength consumed by manual handling, reduces field labor, reduces the labor cost required for production, and improves efficiency.
