Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of rail transportation, and in particular relates to a vegetation pioneer and a mechanical device. Background Art

[0002] In rail transit, dangerous trees are defined as those within a certain range along the railway line whose overgrown branches and foliage obscure locomotive signals, or which could fall or break onto the roadway in force 8 winds or severe convective weather, posing a threat to railway safety. While trees along railway lines are essential for stabilizing the roadbed, they must not interfere with locomotive signals or hinder railway safety in inclement weather. Therefore, optimal tree management is even more crucial. The same applies to trees along highways. Severe weather can cause trees to fall, compromising traffic and personal safety. Currently, trees along highways and railways are manually cut using hand saws or electric saws and then recovered.

[0003] The existing technology for pruning vegetation still has the disadvantage of being difficult to improve the cleaning efficiency and clean the vegetation more thoroughly. When in use, due to the guardrail, the general pruning device cannot trim the vegetation below the guardrail, resulting in incomplete pruning. Moreover, the existing technology for pruning vegetation still has the disadvantage of being difficult to clean the vegetation with less effort and expand the cleaning range. When in use, manual cleaning of vegetation is inefficient, takes a long time, and the range that can be observed is small, which reduces the cleaning progress and easily results in incomplete cleaning.

[0004] Therefore, based on this, the technical solution of the present utility model is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] Extension mechanism;

[0007] A deflection mechanism, one end of which is connected to the extension mechanism; the deflection mechanism comprises an X-axis deflection component, a Y-axis deflection component, a Z-axis deflection component, and a component connection assembly; the deflection mechanism is used to adjust in the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis directions; wherein:

[0008] Both ends of the X-axis deflection component are connected to the upper side of the component connection assembly;

[0009] Both ends of the Y-axis deflection component are connected to the lower side of the component connection assembly;

[0012] To facilitate understanding of the present invention, the working principle of the vegetation pioneer is described below:

[0013] The vegetation clearing machine can be connected to large-scale carrying equipment (such as a robotic arm) through an extension mechanism and used for operations. The deflection mechanism can simultaneously adjust the crushing mechanism's posture by rotating the X-axis deflection component, the Y-axis deflection component, and the Z-axis deflection component. This flexible and diverse degree of freedom allows for the trimming of vegetation along roads such as railways and highways.

[0018] The upper side of the bottom plate is connected to the upper ear plate, and the upper ear plate is connected to the X-axis deflection component;

[0019] The lower side of the bottom plate is connected to the lower ear plate, and the lower ear plate is connected to the Y-axis deflection component.

[0020] Preferably, the crushing mechanism comprises a cutter disc and a cutter; wherein:

[0021] The cutter is arranged on the cutter disc and is used for crushing vegetation.

[0022] Preferably, the pulverizing mechanism further includes a pulverizing drive device and a protective shell; wherein:

[0023] The crushing drive device is arranged inside the protective shell and is used to drive the cutter head to rotate so as to crush vegetation.

[0024] Preferably, the pulverizing mechanism further comprises a gathering plate; wherein:

[0025] The gathering plate is connected to the protective shell and is used for gathering the crushed vegetation to prevent wood chips from flying.

[0026] Based on the same technical concept, another solution of the present invention is to provide a mechanical device, which includes the vegetation pioneer and the mechanical arm.

[0027] Preferably, the vegetation pioneer is connected to the mechanical arm through the extension mechanism.

[0028] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0029] The vegetation clearing machine described in this utility model includes an extension mechanism, a deflection mechanism, and a crushing mechanism. During use, the deflection mechanism is provided with three degrees of freedom (in the X, Y, and Z axes), greatly increasing its ability to adapt to different working conditions on site. Cutters are provided on the upper and lower surfaces of the cutterhead and on the peripheral arms, greatly increasing crushing efficiency and reducing the risk of jamming.
