[0002] During watermelon cultivation, as watermelons ripen, large quantities need to be transported from the planting area to storage locations, sales markets, or processing facilities. Traditional transportation methods can be inefficient and prone to damaging the watermelons. Therefore, developing a mobile transportation device specifically designed for watermelon cultivation is of paramount importance.

[0003] Traditional means of transportation, such as handcarts and tractors, are inconvenient to move in the narrow spaces and complex terrain of watermelon growing areas, making it difficult to turn and move flexibly.

[0004] The inability to quickly adjust and move watermelons according to different regions and terrains affects transportation efficiency.

[0005] Some ordinary transport vehicles do not have special protective designs for watermelons, which can easily cause watermelons to collide and roll during transportation, resulting in damage to the watermelons and affecting their quality and sales value.

[0006] Traditional transportation vehicles often have fixed loading space and height, which cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the quantity and size of watermelons. This may result in a limited transport volume per trip, requiring multiple round trips, which increases transportation costs and time. Utility Model Content

Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of the present application.

[0026] Embodiment

[0027] As Figures 1-3 shown, the mobile transport device for watermelon planting provided by one embodiment of the present application comprises a chassis 1;

[0028] The chassis 1 is the basic structure of the entire transport device, which supports and carries other components, provides a stable frame foundation for the entire device, and ensures that the components can be stably connected and work cooperatively.

[0029] The bottom frame 2 is fixedly connected with the chassis 1 and is provided with plug-in holes on four sides for plugging in the height-increasing fence 13, so that the height of the fence of the transport device can be flexibly adjusted according to actual transport requirements, the safety during loading of watermelons is increased, and the watermelons are prevented from rolling off from the side during transport.

[0030] The turntable 3 is rotatably connected with the chassis 1 through a shaft, and is fixedly connected with the connecting seat 4 below, so that the connecting seat 4 and the components thereon can be flexibly rotated relative to the chassis 1, the turning function of the transport device is realized, and the driving direction can be adjusted in the complex terrain of the watermelon planting field.

[0031] The connecting seat 4 serves to connect the turntable 3, the steering plate 5 and the support 8, and organically combines the components for steering and supporting together, so as to ensure the transmission of force and the integrity of the structure.

[0032] The steering plate 5 is fixedly connected with the connecting seat 4 and is rotatably connected with the sheep horn direction rod 6, an operator drives the steering plate 5 to rotate by controlling the sheep horn direction rod 6, and then controls the turning direction of the transport device.

[0033] The sheep horn direction rod 6 is held and operated by an operator and is rotatably connected with the steering plate 5, the steering force is transmitted to the steering plate 5 through manual operation of the operator, and the driving direction of the transport device is accurately controlled.

[0034] The stop block 7 is fixedly connected with both sides of the chassis 1 and is used for limiting the rotation angle of the steering plate 5, preventing oversteering, and ensuring the stability and safety of the transport device during turning.

[0035] Support 8: The two ends of the bottom are provided with pneumatic tires 9, and the side wall is fixedly connected with guardrails 10. The main function is to support the weight of the transportation device, and the pneumatic tires 9 realize the moving function of the transportation device. At the same time, the guardrails 10 play a certain protective role for the transported watermelons, preventing the watermelons from falling from the side.

[0036] Pneumatic tires 9: installed at both ends of the support 8, designed with pneumatic tires, with good buffering performance and passability, which can adapt to various terrains of watermelon planting areas, reduce the damage to watermelons caused by bumps during transportation, and facilitate the movement of the transportation device under different ground conditions.

[0037] Guardrails 10: fixedly connected in U shape on the side wall of the support 8 at the front and rear of the chassis 1, protecting the periphery of the chassis 1, further preventing the watermelons from rolling in the front and rear directions during transportation, and enhancing the safety of the watermelons during transportation.

[0038] Rotary seat 11: fixedly connected to the side wall of the support 8, used in cooperation with the connecting rod 12, and realizing synchronous steering of the four pneumatic tires 9 through the connecting rod 12, ensuring that the four wheels can rotate in coordination when the transportation device turns, improving the stability and accuracy of the turning.

[0039] Connecting rod 12: connecting two rotary seats 11, so that the four pneumatic tires 9 can be steered synchronously, ensuring the stability and flexibility of the transportation device during turning, avoiding problems such as rollover or unstable driving caused by unsynchronized wheel steering.

[0040] Height-increasing fence 13: composed of a stand and a plurality of gap-provided guard plates, the stand can be inserted into the insertion hole of the bottom frame 2 for fixation. The height-increasing fence 13 can increase the height of the transportation device when needed, effectively preventing the watermelons from rolling from above during transportation due to bumps or other reasons. At the same time, the gap-provided design ensures the protective effect, reduces the overall weight, and uses high-strength plastic material, which is light and strong, easy to install and disassemble, and can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual transportation situation;

[0041] The operator holds and rotates the horn steering lever 6, which drives the steering plate 5 to rotate. Since the steering plate 5 is fixed on the connecting seat 4, the support 8 below the connecting seat 4 rotates, and the rotating seat 11 on the side wall of the support 8 also rotates. Through the connection of the connecting rod 12, the synchronous steering of the four pneumatic tire wheels 9 is realized, so as to change the driving direction of the transport device. When transporting, the watermelons are placed on the bottom frame 2. According to the actual needs, the height increasing fence 13 can be inserted into the four side insertion holes of the bottom frame 2. The height increasing fence 13 is composed of a stand and a gap provided with a guard plate, which can effectively prevent the watermelons from rolling. The pneumatic tire wheel 9 supports the entire device and rolls on the ground under the support of the support 8, realizing the transportation function. The stop block 7 on both sides of the bottom frame 1 limits the rotation angle of the steering plate 5, ensuring the safety of steering. The guardrail 10 in U shape in front and back and the structure of the entire device cooperate to ensure the stability and safety of the watermelons during transportation.

[0042] As shown in Figure 2 In some embodiments, the bottom frame 1 is fixedly connected with the stop block 7 on both sides, which is used to limit the rotation angle of the steering plate 5. By limiting the rotation angle of the steering plate 5, the stop block 7 effectively avoids the risk of rollover caused by excessive steering of the transport device. In the complex terrain of the watermelon planting area, such as uneven ground and narrow passages, precise steering control is particularly important. The stop block 7 ensures that the steering operation is carried out within a safe range.

[0043] As shown in Figure 3 In some embodiments, the guardrail 10 is in U shape in front and back of the bottom frame 1, which protects the periphery of the bottom frame 1. This design provides necessary protection without affecting the convenience of loading and unloading watermelons on the bottom frame 1.

[0044] As shown in Figure 1 In some embodiments, the height increasing fence 13 is composed of a stand and a gap provided with a guard plate, and the stand is inserted into the insertion hole for fixation. This insertion type design makes the installation and disassembly process of the height increasing fence 13 extremely simple and fast.

[0045] As shown in Figure 2 In some embodiments, the four sides of the bottom frame 2 can be inserted with the height increasing fence 13. The four sides of the bottom frame 2 can be inserted with the height increasing fence 13, so that the transport device can increase the protection height in each direction according to the actual needs, forming a relatively closed loading space to provide all-round protection for watermelons, greatly reducing the risk of watermelons rolling from any direction during transportation, and ensuring the safety of watermelons during transportation.

[0046] As shown in Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments, the guard plate of the height-increasing fence 13 is made of high-strength plastic material, which is light and strong, and can effectively prevent the watermelons from rolling during transportation; the use of high-strength plastic material makes the guard plate of the height-increasing fence 13 lighter in weight, compared with other heavier materials such as metal, which reduces the dead weight of the entire transportation device. This is very important for the transportation device which is frequently moved in the watermelon planting field, reduces the force required to push or drive the transportation device, and reduces the labor intensity of the operator.

[0047] Finally, it should be noted that: the above only for the preferred embodiments of the present application, and not for limiting the present application, although the foregoing embodiments of the present application are described in detail, for those skilled in the art, it still can be modified, or part of the technical features of the equivalent replacement. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application, shall be included within the scope of the present application.
