[0023] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , a tomato pollinator, including a discharge bucket 1 and a storage cylinder 5 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the discharge bucket 1. A piston rod 4 extending to the outside thereof is slidably arranged inside the discharge bucket 1, and a pipe head 2 is threadedly connected to the right end of the discharge bucket 1. A discharge pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the right side of the pipe head 2. Support legs 52 fixed to the discharge bucket 1 are welded to the outside of the storage cylinder 5, and a connecting pipe 6 extending into the inside of the discharge bucket 1 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the storage cylinder 5. The auger 12 extends into the connecting pipe 6.

[0025] Among them, a feed pipe 51 is fixedly connected to the side wall at the top of the storage cylinder 5, and an observation window 53 is installed on the front surface of the storage cylinder 5.

[0026] For the convenience of the staff to use, in this embodiment, a mixing and feeding mechanism is provided on the storage cylinder 5; the mixing and feeding mechanism includes a rotating connecting shaft 8 rotatably installed on the storage cylinder 5, a stirring rod 11 fixedly installed at the bottom end of the rotating connecting shaft 8, a auger 12 fixedly installed at the bottom end of the stirring rod 11, a motor 7 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the storage cylinder 5, a driving gear 9 fixedly installed on the output shaft of the motor 7, and a driven gear 10 fixedly installed at the top end of the rotating connecting shaft 8 and meshing with the driving gear 9. An external meshing connection structure is provided for pushing the piston rod 4.

[0027] Specifically, the connection structure includes a rack 13 and a connecting rod 14 fixedly connected, and the other end of the connecting rod 14 is fixedly installed with a connecting plate 15 fixedly connected to the left end of the piston rod 4. The rack 13 meshes with the driven gear 10. By the meshing of the driving gear 9 and the driven gear 10 to drive the stirring rod 11 and the auger 12 to rotate, not only the materials inside the storage cylinder 5 are stirred to avoid caking, but also the materials in the storage cylinder 5 can be introduced into the discharge bucket 1. At the same time, when the driven gear 10 rotates, it meshes with the rack 13 and drives the piston rod 4 to displace through the connecting rod 14, so that the pollen inside the discharge bucket 1 can be evenly output.

[0028] To ensure the stable movement of the rack 13, in this embodiment, a limiting structure for guiding the rack 13 is installed on the upper surface of the storage cylinder 5. The limiting structure includes a connecting column 16 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the storage cylinder 5 and a guide wheel 17 rotatably installed at the top end of the connecting column 16. A sliding groove 18 adapted to the guide wheel 17 is formed on the lower surface of the rack 13, and the guide wheel 17 is in rolling connection with the inner wall of the sliding groove 18. The length of the sliding groove 18 is adapted to the moving distance of the rack 13. Through the guide wheel 17 and the sliding groove 18, the rack 13 can be limited, which not only ensures the stable displacement of the rack 13, but also avoids the rack 13 from disengaging from the meshing with the driven gear 10.

[0029] To further improve the convenience, in this embodiment, a functional structure is provided outside the discharge bucket 1. The functional structure is composed of a strap 19 and a handle 21. The number of the straps 19 is two, and the two straps 19 are symmetrically installed outside the discharge bucket 1, and a magic tape 20 connected by adhesion is installed on the outside of the same side of the two straps 19.

[0030] It should be noted that the discharge barrel 1 is connected by two magic tapes 20 to connect two straps 19, fixing the discharge barrel 1 on the arm. By holding the handle 21, it makes it more labor-saving and convenient for the user. A control switch 22 for controlling the motor 7 is provided on the handle 21. The strap 19 is elastic and can be wound better. The discharge barrel 1 is fixed on the arm by connecting two magic tapes 20, and by holding the handle 21, it makes it more labor-saving and convenient for the user.

[0031] The working principle of the above embodiment is as follows:

[0032] During use, the discharge barrel 1 is fixed on the arm by connecting two magic tapes 20, and by holding the handle 21, it makes it more labor-saving and convenient for the user. The user starts the motor 7 through the control switch 22. The driving gear 9 meshes with the driven gear 10 to drive the stirring rod 11 and the auger 12 to rotate, not only stirring the materials inside the storage barrel 5 to prevent agglomeration, but also guiding the materials in the storage barrel 5 into the discharge barrel 1. At the same time, when the driven gear 10 rotates, it meshes with the rack 13 and drives the piston rod 4 to displace through the connecting rod 14, so as to evenly output the pollen inside the discharge barrel 1. Finally, the pollen is discharged from the discharge pipe 3.

[0033] The electrical components mentioned in the text are all electrically connected to the controller and the power supply. The control mode of the present invention is controlled by the controller. The control circuit of the controller can be realized by simple programming of those skilled in the art. The provision of the power supply also belongs to the common knowledge in the art. And the present invention is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, so the control mode and circuit connection of the present invention will not be explained in detail.
