Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tropical agricultural machinery technology, and in particular to a tree tapping machine. Background Technology

[0002] Natural rubber, along with steel, petroleum, and coal, is known as one of the four major industrial raw materials. Among these four, natural rubber is the only renewable resource. Currently, the harvesting of natural rubber is mainly done by hand, and the tapping time is generally in the early morning. It is necessary to make a cut along the rubber tree at a certain depth and angle, which makes the work of tapping natural rubber labor highly intensive and technically difficult. Furthermore, with the retirement of the older generation of rubber tappers, the demand for labor in the natural rubber industry is becoming increasingly serious. Therefore, there is a need for a tree-following tapping machine.

[0003] Currently, rubber tapping in natural rubber plantations mostly relies on workers. However, hiring workers for tapping increases costs, and manual tapping not only increases the labor intensity of workers but also has low efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a tree tapping machine. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the reliance on manual labor for tapping rubber in natural rubber plantations, which increases costs and reduces efficiency. In response, this invention proposes a tree-mounted tapping machine.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A tree tapping machine, comprising:

[0008] Two mounting bases are provided, and two connecting plates are fixed between the two mounting bases. The outer walls of the two connecting plates are slidably connected to the same lifting base. The surface of the lifting base is provided with an arc-shaped groove. An arc plate is slidably connected in the groove. A first electric push rod is fixed on the inner wall of the arc plate. A connecting block is fixed at one end of the output shaft of the first electric push rod. A cutter head and an infrared sensor are fixed on one side of the connecting block.

[0009] The mounting base has two rotating shafts that rotatably pass between the top inner wall and the bottom inner wall. The outer walls of both rotating shafts are fixed with clamps, and the inner walls of the clamps are provided with detachable rubber plates.

[0010] An adjustment mechanism is provided between two mounting bases for adjusting the position of the first electric actuator.

[0011] The mounting mechanism is located inside the mounting base and is used to adjust the angle between the two clamping plates.

[0012] In one possible design, the adjustment mechanism includes a first motor and a lead screw, which rotates between two mounting seats. The first motor is fixed to the bottom of the lower mounting seat, and the output shaft of the first motor is fixed to the lead screw, which is threaded through the lifting seat.

[0013] In one possible design, the adjustment mechanism further includes a second motor and a plurality of second teeth. The second motor is fixed to the bottom of the lifting seat, one end of the output shaft of the second motor passes through the lifting seat and is fixed with a second gear, and the plurality of second teeth are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the arc plate, and the second gear and the second teeth mesh with each other.

[0014] In one possible design, the mounting mechanism includes a second electric actuator and two first gears. The second electric actuator is fixed to the inner wall of one side of the mounting base. A cross plate is fixed to one end of the output shaft of the second electric actuator. The cross plate and the mounting base are slidably connected. Multiple first teeth are integrally formed on both sides of the cross plate. The two first gears are respectively fixed to the outer walls of the two rotating shafts. The first gears and the first teeth mesh with each other.

[0015] In one possible design, the battery and controller are fixed at the bottom of the mounting base located below.

[0016] In one possible design, the inner wall of the clamping plate has two positioning grooves, the outer wall of the rubber plate is integrally formed with two positioning blocks, the positioning grooves and positioning blocks cooperate with each other, the outer wall of the clamping plate is threaded with a set screw, the outer wall of the positioning block is provided with a limit groove, and one end of the set screw is located in the limit groove.

[0017] In this application, during use, a suitable rubber plate is replaced according to the size of the oak tree. Then, the equipment is placed outside the oak tree. The controller is used to start the second electric push rod, which drives the cross plate to move. With the cooperation of the first gear and the first tooth, the cross plate drives the two clamping plates to move closer to each other and clamp the oak tree, thus installing the equipment onto the oak tree. Then, the first electric push rod is started to drive the connecting block to move. The connecting block drives the cutter head to move closer to the oak tree. The infrared sensor detects the distance between the cutter head and the oak tree and sends a signal to the controller. The controller controls the first electric push rod to adjust the position of the cutter head so that the cutter head enters the oak tree at a suitable depth. Then, the first motor is started, which drives the lead screw to rotate, thereby driving the lifting seat to rise and fall, and thus driving the cutter head to rise and fall. At the same time, the second motor is started, which drives the arc plate to slide, thereby driving the cutter head to rotate around the oak tree, thus automatically driving the cutter head to rotate around the oak tree to tap the rubber.

[0018] Beneficial effects: In this utility model, the tree tapping machine can automatically drive the blade to move and complete the tapping work by setting up multiple structures such as the lifting seat, the first electric push rod and the blade. The use of machine tapping reduces costs, improves tapping efficiency, and saves the labor intensity of workers.

[0019] In this utility model, the rubber tapping machine that follows the tree is designed with a detachable rubber plate. The rubber plate can reduce the damage to the oak tree during equipment installation. Different specifications of rubber plates can be prefabricated and replaced according to the size of the oak tree, making it flexible and convenient to use.

[0020] In this invention, the cutting head can be automatically moved to complete the rubber tapping work. Using machine tapping reduces costs and improves tapping efficiency, while also saving labor intensity for workers. The rubber sheet can reduce damage to the oak tree during equipment installation. Different specifications of rubber sheets can be prefabricated and replaced according to the size of the oak tree, making it flexible and convenient to use. Attached Figure Description
