[0002] Yam, a very common vegetable and medicinal herb in daily life, is highly valued for its unique properties. The root and stem of this plant can not only be eaten as food, but also has a mild and pleasant taste, a delicate and smooth texture, providing a delightful mouthfeel. More importantly, yam is rich in starch and various nutrients beneficial to the human body, such as vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber, giving it high nutritional value.

[0003] In the theoretical system of Traditional Chinese Medicine, yam holds an important medicinal position. It is believed to tonify the spleen and lungs, effectively enhancing the digestive and absorptive functions of the spleen and stomach, while also nourishing the lungs and improving the health of the respiratory system. Furthermore, yam is widely used for nourishing yin and beautifying the skin, helping to regulate the body's yin-yang balance, keeping the skin moisturized and smooth, and delaying aging.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] In use, this novel yam excavator adjusts the width of the device by sliding a connecting plate on a connecting groove, thereby excavating yams at different intervals without damaging them. The conical rods on both sides are inserted into the soil to dig out the soil and yams together, and then the yams are pushed out of the excavator by a propulsion component, which is convenient for manual operation. The device can be connected to the excavator by an excavator connecting frame, which facilitates the movement and operation of the device. Attached Figure Description
