[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Example 1:
[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model provides a sugarcane stalk cutting device with automatic identification function, comprising an overall structure: the device is equipped with a water trough 1, and a conveyor belt 2 is installed inside the water trough 1 for transporting sugarcane stalks. Multiple sets of cutting machines 3 are installed on the top of the water trough 1, each set of cutting machines 3 being fixed on a support 4. Each cutting machine 3 is equipped with a cutting blade 5, and the cutting blade 5 is bidirectionally arranged on the cutting machine 3, enabling bidirectional cutting and improving cutting efficiency. It should be noted that the working principle of this overall structure, such as the arrangement of the water trough 1, the conveyor belt 2, and the drive device, is already in specific applications in the prior art and will not be described in detail. This utility model aims to solve the problem of operational safety hazards located at the cutting blade 5.
[0023] The system includes protective and sensing devices: First, a protective seat 6 is installed on the cutting machine 3, located at both ends of the cutting blade 5, to prevent sugarcane fragments from flying during cutting. A limit plate 7 is installed at one end of the protective seat 6 to limit the position of the sugarcane stalk, thereby ensuring consistent cutting length and standardization. Two first contact sensors 8 are installed on the protective seat 6, located at both ends of the cutting groove 11 on the protective seat 6. The limit plate 7 is designed with an L-shaped structure, on which a first support plate 12 and a second support plate 13 are installed, and the combination of the two also forms an L-shape.
[0024] The second contact sensor 9 is mounted on the first support plate 12, and the third contact sensor 10 is mounted on the second support plate 13. The two first contact sensors 8 are positioned higher than the height of the cutting blade 5, and the heights of the second contact sensor 9 and the third contact sensor 10 are both higher than the height of the first contact sensors 8. Through the combined detection function of the three contact sensors, a safe operating control effect is achieved, improving the safety of production operations.
[0025] The elastic connection structure is that the second supporting plate 13 is vertically installed on the first supporting plate 12, and the first supporting plate 12 is elastically installed on the limiting plate 7. Specifically, the first supporting plate 12 is connected with a damper 14, which can be a telescopic rod or a tension spring. The limiting plate 7 is provided with a sliding groove 15, and the first supporting plate 12 and the second supporting plate 13 are slidingly installed in the sliding groove 15. One end of the damper 14 is connected to the first supporting plate 12, and the other end is connected to the top of the sliding groove 15. This structure design enables the first supporting plate 12 to be elastically buffered by the damper 14 when it is impacted by the sugarcane stalk, thereby avoiding damage to the equipment and the sugarcane stalk caused by excessive impact force. Meanwhile, the initial position of the first supporting plate 12 can be reset during operation.
[0026] The working process is as follows: first, the entire flow line is started, and the cutting machine 3 drives the cutting blade 5 to rotate. The operator places the sugarcane to be cut on the first supporting plate 12. The second contact sensor 9 on the first supporting plate 12 first receives a detection signal, and then the third contact sensor 10 on the second supporting plate 13 receives a detection signal, indicating that the sugarcane to be cut is in place (the order of receiving signals by the two contact sensors does not need to be specially limited, that is, when the sugarcane to be cut is placed on the first supporting plate 12, both contact sensors can receive detection signals). Then, because the positions of the two contact sensors are higher than that of the first contact sensor 8, the operator presses down the first supporting plate 12 at this time, so that the rear end of the sugarcane contacts the first sensor and is cut by the cutting blade 5 in the cutting slot 11, completing a standard cutting process. During the entire cutting process, the principle of intelligent identification is that the first contact sensor 8 and the second contact sensor 9 detect contact signals first, and then the third contact sensor 10 detects contact signals, indicating that the cutting process is standard and safe, and there is no situation of the cutting blade 5 mistakenly hurting the operator due to operation accidents. If the third contact sensor 10 detects contact signals first during the process, it indicates that there is no sugarcane on the first supporting plate 12 and the second supporting plate 13 to trigger the contact signals, indicating that the process is not a standard sugarcane cutting process. The system will determine it as a false touch behavior, thereby stopping the rotation of the cutting blade 5 at this position to prevent injury to the operator or other false touch tools, ensuring safety. It should be noted that the specific operation system can use a single-chip microcomputer or a PLC control module to control and monitor the sensor components, which are conventional technical operations and can be understood and implemented by those skilled in the art.
[0027] Example 2:
[0028] The difference from Example 1 is in the design of the adjustable limiting plate 7: the limiting plate 7 is improved to an adjustable structure. A scale mark and an adjusting device, such as a screw-nut adjusting mechanism or a sliding slot 15 sliding block adjusting mechanism, are provided on the limiting plate 7. Through the adjusting device, the position of the limiting plate 7 can be accurately adjusted according to the internode length of each batch of sugarcane stalks, thereby precisely controlling the cutting length. This can effectively avoid the occurrence of damage to the buds during cutting, ensuring the germination rate and growth quality of the sugarcane stalks. At the same time, the uniform cutting length standard facilitates subsequent packaging and mechanized planting, improving planting efficiency.
[0029] Cost and efficiency optimization: In the design and selection of materials for the equipment, the cost of investment is fully considered. High-cost-performance materials are selected to manufacture the various components of the equipment, and the structure of the equipment is optimized to simplify the production process, thereby reducing production costs without affecting the performance of the equipment. In terms of cutting efficiency, the transmission system and cutting blade 5 of the cutting machine 3 are optimized. High-efficiency motors and transmission devices are used to increase the rotational speed and cutting frequency of the cutting blade 5, while ensuring the stability and precision of the cutting, thereby improving the quality of the cut stalks.
[0030] Work flow: First, the entire pipeline is started, and the cutting machine 3 drives the cutting blade 5 to rotate. The adjustable limiting plate 7 is adjusted, and according to the common internode length range of sugarcane stalks, the limiting plate 7 is adjusted to the appropriate initial position, and the scale mark is recorded. Before the cutting operation, according to the actual internode length of the current batch of sugarcane stalks, the limiting plate 7 is accurately adjusted through the adjusting device. Observe the scale mark and adjust the limiting plate 7 to the appropriate position to determine the cutting length. Turn on the equipment, start the conveyor belt 2 and the cutting machine 3, and make the cutting blade 5 rotate to the normal working speed. The operator places the sugarcane to be cut on the first supporting plate 12, and the second contact sensor 9 on the first supporting plate 12 first receives the detection signal, followed by the third contact sensor 10 on the second supporting plate 13 receiving the detection signal, indicating that the sugarcane to be cut is in place. Then, the operator presses down the first supporting plate 12, making the rear end of the sugarcane contact the first sensor, and the sugarcane enters the cutting slot 11 to be cut by the cutting blade 5, completing a standard cutting process. During the entire cutting process, the three contact sensors cooperate with each other to monitor the operating state in real time. If the third contact sensor 10 detects the contact signal first, the system determines it as a false touch action and immediately stops the rotation of the cutting blade 5 at that location to prevent injury. During the cutting process, the operator observes the cutting situation at any time and checks whether the length of the cut sugarcane stalk meets the requirements. If the cutting length deviates, the position of the limiting plate 7 can be adjusted again according to the actual situation to ensure the accuracy of the cutting length and improve the quality and efficiency of the preparation of sugarcane seeds. After the cutting operation is completed, the power of the equipment is turned off, and the remaining sugarcane debris and juice on the equipment are cleaned up, and the equipment is maintained daily to prepare for the next cutting operation.
[0031] In summary, the sugarcane seed cutting equipment with automatic identification function provided by the utility model ensures that the length of the sugarcane seed cut each time meets the requirements, effectively improves the quality and consistency of the sugarcane seed preparation, and realizes the control effect of safe operation through the mutual combination detection function of the three contact sensors, improves the safety of production operation.
