A handle 109 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the support tube 101. A pressure plate 110 is hinged to the upper side of the handle 109.
[0030] Two side plates 105 are each provided with a mounting groove 106 at opposite ends. Two blades 107 are each fixedly provided with a connecting block 108 at opposite ends. The two connecting blocks 108 are respectively fixedly installed in the two mounting grooves 106 by bolts. The lower end of the fixing rope 104 passes through the lower part of one side of the support tube 101. The pressure plate 110 is fixedly connected to the fixing rope 104 at the upper part of the side near the handle 109. Torsion springs are provided at the hinge joints of the two side plates 105, the fixing block 102, the pressure plate 110, and the handle 109.
[0031] Specifically, by setting up the support tube 101, the two side plates 105 can be raised to facilitate the harvesting of citrus fruits from higher parts of the citrus tree. Mounting grooves 106 are provided on the opposite ends of each side plate 105 for mounting the blades 107. The blades 107 can be stably installed inside the mounting grooves 106 using bolts. A pressure plate 110 is hinged to one side of the handle 109. A fixing rope 104 connected to the upper part of the pressure plate 110 and two connecting ropes 103 on the opposite sides of the two side plates 105 are connected to... The connection is made so that pressing the pressure plate 110 causes the upper side of the pressure plate 110 to tilt up, thereby pulling the fixing rope 104 and causing the two side plates 105 to open. The citrus support rod can be cut by setting the blade 107 on the opposite side of the side plates 105. Torsion springs are set at the hinges of the two side plates 105 and the fixing block 102, as well as at the hinges of the pressure plate 110 and the handle 109. After pressing the pressure plate 110 to open the side plates 105, releasing the pressure plate 110 and the two side plates 105 will reset.
[0032] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 The protective structure 2 includes a collection frame 201 and two fixed shells 205. A fixed hose 202 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the collection frame 201. A baffle 203 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the fixed hose 202. A first spring 206 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the opposite side of the two fixed shells 205. A connecting plate 208 is fixedly installed at the opposite end of the two first springs 206. An insert block 210 is fixedly installed at the opposite end of the two connecting plates 208.
[0033] Two insert blocks 210 pass through two fixed shells 205 respectively. A first groove 207 is opened at the upper end of each of the two fixed shells 205. Push blocks 209 are fixedly installed at the upper end of each of the two connecting plates 208. The two push blocks 209 are slidably installed with the two first grooves 207 respectively. Support blocks 204 are fixedly installed at the lower end of each of the two fixed shells 205. The lower ends of the two support blocks 204 are fixedly installed at the front and rear sides of the upper end of the baffle 203 respectively.
[0034] Specifically, by setting a fixed hose 202 to connect the collection frame 201 and the baffle 203, the harvested citrus fruits can enter the collection box 301 through the fixed hose 202. The citrus fruits descend from the fixed hose 202 by their own weight, and the fixed hose 202 can provide cushioning. By setting two fixed shells 205 on the upper side of the baffle 203, and setting a spring 206 and an insert 210 inside the fixed shell 205, the insert 210 can be inserted into the slot 305 to fix the baffle 203 between the two sliders 304. By sliding the two push blocks 209 to the opposite side, the two inserts 210 can be moved out of the two slots 305, and the baffle 203 can be removed from the collection box 301.
[0035] Reference Figures 3-5 The collection structure 3 includes a collection box 301. The inner walls of the front and rear sides of the collection box 301 are provided with second slide grooves 302. The bottom surfaces of the two second slide grooves 302 are fixedly provided with second springs 303. The upper ends of the two second springs 303 are fixedly provided with sliders 304. The upper side of the opposite side of the two sliders 304 is provided with slots 305. Two shoulder straps 306 are fixedly provided on one side of the collection box 301. The two sliders 304 are slidably disposed with the two second slide grooves 302 respectively.
[0036] Specifically, by setting up a collection box 301, the citrus fruits can be directly fed into the collection box 301 through the fixed hose 202. A second spring 303 is set at the bottom of the slider 304, so that the second spring 303 can keep the baffle 203 with a downward force to hold the citrus fruits inside the collection box 301 and prevent the citrus fruits from shaking inside the collection box 301. By setting up a shoulder strap 306, workers can easily carry the collection box 301 on their backs.
[0037] Working principle: When using this device, the worker carries the collection box 301 on their back using the shoulder strap 306. By pressing the pressure plate 110 through the picking structure 1, the upper end of the pressure plate 110 moves to one side, pulling the fixing rope 104. When the fixing rope 104 moves down, it pulls the two connecting ropes 103, causing the two side plates 105 to open and clamp the two side plates 105 onto the citrus stem. After releasing the pressure plate 110, the two blades 107 clamp onto both sides of the branch. By pulling downwards, the blades 107 cut and pull the branch. The picked citrus falls into the collection box 201. The citrus enters through the fixing hose 202. The fixing hose 202 cushions the citrus and causes it to descend into the collection structure 3. As the number of citrus increases, the baffle 203 moves upwards, slightly clamping the citrus to prevent it from shaking and getting damaged inside the collection box 301.
[0038] Secondly, the baffle 203 can be removed from the collection box 301 by sliding the two push blocks 209 to the opposite side, causing the two insert blocks 210 to move out of the two slots 305.
[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
