Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of forestry harvesting equipment technology, specifically to a forestry harvester. Background Technology

[0002] Forestry refers to the production sector that protects the ecological environment and maintains ecological balance, cultivates and protects forests to obtain timber and other forest products, and utilizes the natural characteristics of trees to play a protective role. It is an important part of the national economy. Currently, in some areas, fruit trees can be planted on barren mountains, which can both protect the environment and prevent soil erosion, and increase farmers' income. In fruit trees, some grow lower and some grow higher. When harvesting the fruit from the lower-growing trees, they can be twisted off manually or with the help of tools. The fruit growing higher is more difficult to harvest because the trunks above are thinner and cannot be climbed. Moreover, the harvested fruit cannot be quickly transported to the ground, resulting in low harvesting efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a forestry harvester that can harvest fruits from high places. It is simple and convenient to operate, and can quickly transport the harvested fruits to the ground, thereby improving harvesting efficiency and having low manufacturing costs.
