A through groove 2 (24) is provided on one side of housing 1, and a through groove 1 (21) is provided at the bottom of housing 1. 4 is connected to the through groove 21. The support frame 8 has two sets. The round rod 20 and round rod 15 are respectively set on each set of support frame 8. There are several sets of rubber rods 22 and 23. The rubber rods 22 and 23 are intersecting in the groove 9. The rubber rods 22 and 23 are arranged in a cross pattern, and are arranged from shortest to longest. There are two sets of motors 3 and two sets of conveyor belts 5. The conveyor belts 5 are respectively set on both sides of the box 1. During the harvesting process, after the peppers are removed by the rubber rods, they are effectively blocked on the conveyor belts 5 by the ingenious design of the support frame 8 and the groove 9. Then, the motors 3 drive the conveyor belts 5 to rotate, transporting the peppers to one side of the box 1 and discharging them into the collection container. This not only ensures the smooth collection of peppers and avoids the scattering and loss of peppers during the harvesting process, but also improves the continuity of the operation, thereby further improving the overall harvesting efficiency.

[0024] Working Principle: In use, firstly, use bolts to fix the box 1 to the tractor via connecting plate 2. Then, start motor 2 10. Motor 2 10 drives pulley 1 12 to rotate, pulley 1 12 drives belt 1 13 to rotate, belt 1 13 drives pulley 2 14 to rotate, pulley 2 14 drives round rod 1 15 to rotate on support frame 8, round rod 1 15 drives several sets of rubber rods 1 22 to rotate. Simultaneously, motor 2 10 drives sprocket 1 11 to rotate, sprocket 1 11 drives sprocket 2 16 to rotate on box 1, sprocket 2 16 drives pulley 3 17 to rotate, pulley 3 17 drives belt 2 18 to rotate, belt 2 18 drives pulley 4 19 to rotate, pulley 4 19 drives round rod 2 20 to rotate on support frame 8, round rod 2 20 drives several sets of rubber rods 2 23 to rotate. Then, use the tractor to move box 1 and align slot 2 24 with slot 1 21 on the ground. When the chili pepper plants come into contact with several sets of rubber rods 22 and 23, the rubber rods 22 and 23 are arranged from shortest to longest to remove the chili peppers from the plant. When the rubber rods 22 and 23 pass through the grooves 9 on the support frame 8, the support frame 8 and the grooves 9 act to block the chili peppers on the rubber rods 22 and 23 onto the two sets of conveyor belts 5. This reduces the physical effort required to manually pick the chili peppers one by one and greatly improves the picking efficiency. At the same time, two sets of motors 3 can be turned on to rotate. Motors 3 drive the conveyor wheel 4 to rotate on the box 1. The conveyor wheel 4 drives the conveyor belt 5 to rotate through the second conveyor wheel 6. The conveyor belt 5 carries the chili peppers that fall onto the conveyor belt 5 through several sets of fixing plates 7 and then discharges them from one side of the box 1 into a collection container, further improving the chili pepper picking efficiency.
