Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of blueberry harvesting technology, and in particular to an integrated device for harvesting and grading fresh blueberries. Background Technology
[0002] Blueberries are blue berries belonging to the Ericaceae family and the Vaccinium genus. Originating in North America, they are perennial shrubs with small berries. They are named for their blue fruit. Blueberries are rich in nutrients and have functions such as preventing brain nerve aging, protecting eyesight, strengthening the heart, fighting cancer, softening blood vessels, and enhancing the body's immunity. They are highly nutritious.
[0003] When blueberries are harvested, workers usually carry picking baskets and pick them manually. The harvested blueberries are then transported to a designated location where sorting equipment is used to grade and sort the blueberries by size. Only then can the graded and sorted blueberries be packaged according to requirements. This process is multifaceted, time-consuming, labor-intensive, and has a significant impact on the bloom of the blueberries. Utility Model Content
