Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of walnut harvesting technology, specifically relating to a fresh walnut harvesting and collection device. Background Technology
[0002] Walnuts have high nutritional value, and their roots, stems, leaves, and fruits all have their uses, making them a veritable treasure trove. Therefore, they are widely used in health foods, medicines, industrial raw materials, and furniture manufacturing, and are one of the most widely distributed economic tree species in China.
[0003] There are two traditional methods for harvesting walnuts. One method is to use a bamboo pole to knock the walnuts growing on the branches to the ground. However, this method is inefficient and sometimes requires climbing trees, which is dangerous. The other method is to use a walnut harvester. Most existing walnut harvesters use a vibrating motor to drive a vibrating component, which vibrates the walnuts growing on the branches, causing them to fall. However, the walnuts are easily scattered and difficult to collect. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a fresh walnut picking and collecting device in view of the shortcomings of the prior art. The picking and collecting device has a simple structure, is easy to use, has good effect, can be reused, is easy to install and recycle, and can be promoted and applied.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a fresh walnut harvesting and collecting device, characterized in that it includes a harvesting cylinder, which is a square cylinder, and mounting bearings are fixedly installed at the four corners of the top of the harvesting cylinder. Two mounting bearings on the same side are rotatably connected to a rotating shaft. The outer ring of the mounting bearing is fixedly connected to the harvesting cylinder, and the inner ring of the mounting bearing is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. A rotating plate is fixedly installed on the rotating shaft. A cutting blade is fixedly installed on the inner side of the top of the rotating plate. The edge of the cutting blade is sinusoidal. The two cutting blades cooperate to cut the walnut branches. Electric push rods are fixedly installed on the opposite outer walls of the harvesting cylinder. A hinge seat is fixedly installed at the end of the output shaft of the electric push rod. Connecting rods are rotatably connected to both sides of the hinge seat. The top of the connecting rod is hinged to the top of the rotating plate.
[0006] The output shaft of the electric push rod extends and retracts, causing the hinge to move up and down. The up-and-down movement of the hinge causes the connecting rod to rotate, which in turn causes the two cutting blades to move closer or further apart. When the fresh walnuts are between the rotating plates, the two cutting blades move closer together, cutting the walnut branches connected to the fresh walnuts. This allows the fresh walnuts on the same branch to be cut and harvested simultaneously, and the fresh walnuts fall into the harvesting cylinder.
[0007] The bottom of the harvesting cylinder is fixedly connected to a collecting hopper, through which fresh walnuts from the harvesting cylinder are collected and stored. A support rod is fixedly installed at the bottom of the collecting hopper, and a battery compartment is also fixedly installed at the bottom of the collecting hopper. The battery compartment is equipped with a rechargeable battery, which is electrically connected to the electric push rod, supplying power to the electric push rod.
[0008] Preferably, a collecting cloth is provided between the rotating plate and the side adjacent to the harvesting cylinder. The collecting cloth is made of flexible fabric. The two rotating plates are connected by two collecting cloths to prevent fresh walnuts from falling between the collecting cloths. At the same time, the collecting cloth does not affect the rotation of the rotating plate.
[0009] Preferably, a gathering cloth tube is fixedly connected to the outlet end of the collecting hopper, and a conveying pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the gathering cloth tube. The conveying pipe is fixedly installed on the support rod, and a connecting ring is fixedly installed on the outside of the bottom end of the conveying pipe. The connecting ring is used to install a woven bag for collecting fresh walnuts. The fresh walnuts collected in the collecting hopper enter the conveying pipe through the gathering cloth tube and are finally collected in the woven bag.
[0010] Preferably, the outlet end of the collecting hopper is provided with multiple threaded holes, and the top end of the gathering cloth tube is provided with multiple fixing holes. Fixing bolts are provided in the fixing holes, and the fixing bolts are threadedly connected to the threaded holes, which facilitates disconnecting and connecting the collecting hopper and the gathering cloth tube, and makes it convenient to clean the harvesting tube and the collecting hopper and remove walnut branches and leaves.
[0011] Preferably, a controller is fixedly installed on the support rod, and the controller is electrically connected to the electric push rod, so that the two electric push rods can be controlled to extend and retract synchronously.
[0012] Preferably, the support rod is a telescopic rod, and the conveying pipe is a folding pipe. The upper part of the folding pipe is fixedly connected to the upper part of the telescopic rod, and the lower part of the folding pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the telescopic rod. The folding pipe can extend or fold with the extension and retraction of the telescopic rod, which is convenient for picking fresh walnuts of different heights. A handle is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the support rod, and the handle is provided with anti-slip texture for easy hand operation.
[0013] This utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0014] This invention features a rotating plate mounted on the top of the harvesting cylinder, with a branch-cutting blade installed on the inner side of the rotating plate. Two electric push rods are located on the outer side of the harvesting cylinder. The extension and retraction of the electric push rods drive the connecting rod to rotate, thereby causing the two branch-cutting blades to move closer together and cut the walnut branches, allowing the fresh walnuts to fall into the harvesting cylinder and be collected in the collection hopper. Finally, the walnuts are transported to a woven bag through a conveying pipe, making the operation convenient and the harvesting efficiency high.
[0015] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Attached Figure Description
