Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automatic harvesting technology, and in particular to an automatic harvesting device for potato cultivation. Background Technology

[0002] Tuber crops generally refer to crops that have tubers or roots, are rich in starch, and can be used for food or as industrial raw materials. They mainly include yams, sweet potatoes, and potatoes. Since the tubers or roots of tuber crops are generally buried deep in the soil, people need to dig them out of the soil when harvesting them. In order to improve the harvesting efficiency of tuber crops, people generally use automatic harvesting devices for tuber crops.

[0003] Existing examples, such as the automatic harvesting device for potato cultivation described in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN220173799U, include a base, harvesting claws, mounting parts, a housing, and mounting rods. Two mounting parts are provided, each connected to the upper surface of the base and symmetrically distributed on it. Each mounting part has a support rod connected to the upper surface of the base. Multiple rollers are rotatably mounted on the base, evenly distributed across it. A conveying mechanism connects the two mounting parts and is inclined. The housing is connected to the upper surface of the base and located below the conveying mechanism. The mounting rods rotatably connect the two mounting parts, the harvesting claws are connected to the mounting rods, and a rotating mechanism is provided on each mounting part, connected to the mounting rods.

[0004] In the aforementioned prior art, although the angle of the harvesting claws in the automatic harvesting device is adjustable, making the depth of digging more adaptable, and the conveying mechanism automatically transports and collects the crops, increasing harvesting efficiency, the harvested tuber crops in this patented technology fall directly from the height of the conveying mechanism into the box during use. At this time, the tuber crops falling into the box are prone to internal damage due to the impact force generated when they fall. This internal damage can accelerate the rotting of the tuber crops during storage, thus affecting the subsequent storage of the tuber crops. This reduces both the effectiveness and efficiency of the automatic harvesting device for tuber cultivation.

[0005] Therefore, there is a need to develop an automatic harvesting device for potato cultivation in order to solve the aforementioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem that in existing automatic harvesting devices for potato cultivation, the harvested potato crops fall directly from a height on the conveyor mechanism into the container. The impact force upon falling into the container causes internal damage to the potatoes, which accelerates spoilage during storage, affecting subsequent storage and reducing both the effectiveness and efficiency of the automatic harvesting device. Therefore, this invention proposes an automatic harvesting device for potato cultivation.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an automatic harvesting device for potato planting, comprising: a device body, wherein a feeding mechanism is provided on the device body;

[0008] The feeding mechanism includes a housing and a first guide plate. Four second guide plates are fixedly arranged at equal intervals inside the housing. Three third guide plates are fixed inside the housing. A fixing plate is fixed to the upper inclined surface of each second guide plate near one edge. A fourth guide plate is fixed inside the housing near the bottom. A rectangular hole is opened on the inner wall of the housing.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom of the housing is on the upper side of the device body, the first guide plate is fixed inside the device body, and the surface of the first guide plate is in contact with one side of one of the fixing plates.

[0010] Preferably, the surface of the fourth guide plate is fixed to the surface of one of the second guide plates, and the four second guide plates and the three third guide plates are arranged in an alternating pattern.

[0011] Preferably, the device body is provided with a collection mechanism, which includes a flat plate with two symmetrical placement holes on the top of the plate.

[0012] Preferably, a collection box is placed inside each of the placement holes, a fixing shell is fixed to the top of the plate, and four cylindrical grooves are opened on the top of the plate.

[0013] Preferably, each of the cylindrical grooves is movably fitted with a round rod, and the four round rods are divided into two groups, with a baffle fixed between the tops of the round rods in each group.

[0014] Preferably, one side of the plate is fixed to the side of the device body near the housing, the bottom of each baffle is in contact with the top of the plate, and one side of both baffles is in contact with the side of the housing near the fixed shell.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] 1. In this utility model, by setting a feeding mechanism, the potato crop harvested by the automatic potato harvesting device can be allowed to slowly slide down from a height into the collection box during use, thereby avoiding the occurrence of hidden damage to the potato crop due to impact during the harvesting process, which would affect the subsequent storage of the potato crop. This not only improves the use effect of the automatic potato harvesting device, but also improves the use efficiency of the automatic potato harvesting device. Through the action of the rectangular hole, the potato crop on the fourth guide plate can slide directly out of the inside of the shell, and through the action of the first guide plate, the potato crop on the device body can slide down into the inside of the shell.

[0017] 2. In this utility model, by setting a collection mechanism, the tuber crops that slide out from inside the rectangular hole can be collected. With the cooperation of the cylindrical groove and the round rod, the baffle can be prevented from moving automatically on the flat plate. With the cooperation of the flat plate, the placement hole, the baffle and the fixed shell, the tuber crops that slide out from inside the rectangular hole can be directly guided into the collection box.

[0025] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0026] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0027] like Figures 1-6 As shown, this utility model provides an automatic harvesting device for potato planting, including: a device body 1, and a feeding mechanism 2 is provided on the device body 1;

[0028] The feeding mechanism 2 includes a housing 201 and a first guide plate 202. Four second guide plates 203 are equidistantly fixed inside the housing 201. Three third guide plates 204 are fixed inside the housing 201. A fixing plate 205 is fixed to one side of the upper inclined surface of each second guide plate 203. A fourth guide plate 206 is fixed inside the housing 201 near the bottom. A rectangular hole 207 is formed in the inner wall of the housing 201. The bottom of the housing 201 is flush with the upper side of the device body 1. The first guide plate 202 is fixed inside the device body 1, and its surface contacts one side of one of the fixing plates 205. The surface of the fourth guide plate 206 is fixed to the surface of one of the second guide plates 203. The four second guide plates 203 and the three third guide plates 204 are fixed together. The components 04 are arranged in an alternating pattern. The main body 1 of the device is equipped with a collection mechanism 3, which includes a flat plate 301. The top of the flat plate 301 has two symmetrical placement holes 302. Each placement hole 302 contains a collection box 303. The top of the flat plate 301 is fixed with a fixing shell 304. The top of the flat plate 301 has four cylindrical grooves 305. Each cylindrical groove 305 is movably fitted with a round rod 306. The four round rods 306 are divided into two groups. A baffle 307 is fixed between the tops of each group of round rods 306. One side of the flat plate 301 is fixed to the side of the main body 1 near the shell 201. The bottom of each baffle 307 is in contact with the top of the flat plate 301. One side of each baffle 307 is in contact with the side of the shell 201 near the fixing shell 304.

[0029] The desired effect is as follows: when automatic harvesting of tuber crops is required, the device body 1 is first connected to the external drive device, and then the drive device is started directly. The started drive device will directly move the device body 1. When the device body 1 moves to the appropriate position, it is then started. The started device body 1, in conjunction with the started drive device, can then automatically harvest the tuber crops. When the harvested tuber crops move to a position on the device body 1 near the first guide plate 202, the harvested tuber crops at this position can be automatically harvested by the started device body 1. The tuber falls onto the first guide plate 202, then slides down onto the first (first from top to bottom) second guide plate 203 inside the housing 201, then onto the first (first from top to bottom) third guide plate 204, and then onto the second (second from top to bottom) second guide plate 203 under the action of the corresponding fixing plate 205. This sliding process continues until the tuber falls onto the fourth guide plate 206, and then, with the help of the rectangular hole 207, slides directly out of the housing 201. When the harvested tuber crop slides out of the casing 201, it slides directly into the corresponding collection box 303 due to its own sliding inertia, the cooperation of the flat plate 301, the placement hole 302, the two baffles 307, and the fixed shell 304. When both collection boxes 303 are full, the device body 1 and the drive device are shut off. At this time, the shut-off device body 1 will stop the harvesting of tuber crops, and the shut-off drive device will stop the movement of the device body 1. Then, both baffles 307 are lifted upwards. At this time, both moving baffles 307 will drive the corresponding set of round rods 306 to move. When all round rods 306 are in their corresponding positions... When the cylindrical groove 305 is moved out, the two baffles 307 can be moved away directly. Then, the two collection boxes 303 are moved out from the corresponding placement holes 302. Next, the two empty collection boxes 303 are placed on the two placement holes 302 respectively. Then, the two baffles 307 are reset to their original positions. At this time, the two baffles 307 that have been reset to their original positions will drive the corresponding set of cylindrical rods 306 to reset to their original positions. When the two baffles 307 have completed their reset and movement, the drive equipment and device body 1 can be started directly. The started drive equipment and device body 1 can then operate according to the above operation steps to automatically harvest potato crops.

[0030] Working principle: When automatic harvesting of tuber crops is required, first connect the device body 1 to the external drive device, then start the drive device directly. The started drive device will directly drive the device body 1 to move. When the device body 1 moves to the appropriate position, start the device body 1 directly. At this point, the started device body 1, with the cooperation of the started drive device, can automatically harvest the tuber crops. When the harvested tuber crops move to the position on the device body 1 near the first guide plate 202, the tuber crops that have moved to the position on the device body 1 near the first guide plate 202 can be harvested by the started device body 1. The tuber falls onto the first guide plate 202, then slides from the first guide plate 202 onto the first (first from top to bottom) second guide plate 203 inside the shell 201, then slides onto the first (first from top to bottom) third guide plate 204 inside the shell 201, and then slides onto the second (second from top to bottom) second guide plate 203 under the action of the corresponding fixing plate 205. This sliding process continues until the tuber falls onto the fourth guide plate 206, and then, with the help of the rectangular hole 207, slides directly out of the shell 201. When the harvested tuber crops slide out of the casing 201, they can slide directly into the corresponding collection box 303 due to their own sliding inertia, the cooperation of the flat plate 301, the placement hole 302, the two baffles 307, and the fixed shell 304. When both collection boxes 303 are full, the device body 1 and the drive device are directly shut off. At this time, the shut-off device body 1 will stop the harvesting of tuber crops, and the shut-off drive device will stop the movement of the device body 1. Then, both baffles 307 are lifted upwards. At this time, both moving baffles 307 will drive the corresponding set of round rods 306 to move. When all round rods 306 are in their corresponding positions... When the cylindrical groove 305 is moved out, the two baffles 307 can be moved away directly. Then, the two collection boxes 303 are moved out from the corresponding placement holes 302. Next, the two empty collection boxes 303 are placed on the two placement holes 302 respectively. Then, the two baffles 307 are reset to their original positions. At this time, the two baffles 307 that have been reset to their original positions will drive the corresponding set of cylindrical rods 306 to reset to their original positions. When the two baffles 307 have completed their reset and movement, the drive equipment and device body 1 can be started directly. The started drive equipment and device body 1 can then operate according to the above operation steps to automatically harvest potato crops.

[0031] The device body 1 typically includes the following main components:

[0032] Digging shovel: Depth into the ground to dig up the tubers along with the soil, allowing the soil to leak out through the gaps.

[0033] Conveyor belt: Responsible for transporting the dug-up potatoes to subsequent stages.

[0034] Electric motor: Provides power for the operation of the entire device.

[0035] Mobile vehicle: Enables the harvesting equipment to move around in the field.

[0036] Housing: Provides mounting locations for drive rollers, excavating shovels, and electric motors.

[0037] Battery and controller: Control the start and stop of the electric motor.

[0038] Its working principle is roughly as follows:

[0039] Driven by the drive equipment, the main body of the device 1 moves through the field via a mobile vehicle. Then, with the cooperation of the battery and controller, the electric motor is started. At this time, the digging shovel will insert into the soil and dig out the tuber crops and soil clods together. Afterwards, the tuber crops will move onto the conveyor belt under their own aggregation and tumbling action, while the soil clods will leak out from the gaps in the digging shovel. Then, the conveyor belt will transport the tuber crops to the feeding mechanism 2. Afterwards, with the cooperation of the feeding mechanism 2 and the collecting mechanism 3, the tuber crops will slide into the collecting box 303.

[0040] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
