The housing 11 is divided from left to right by a partition into a collection chamber 115, a power chamber 116, and a power supply chamber 117. The left end of the collection chamber 115 is hollowed out, and several collection wheels 17 are symmetrically arranged vertically on the left end of the collection chamber 115. The upper and lower collection wheels 17 are fixedly sleeved on a rotating shaft. Both ends of the rotating shaft are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing 11 via bearings. A pulley 112 is fixedly sleeved on one end of the rotating shaft. The pulley 112 is connected to the motor via a belt structure 113. The output end of motor 110 is connected to pulley 112. Motor 110 is located in power chamber 116. Belt structure 113 passes through partition. Buffer plate 18 is fixedly connected to partition in collection chamber 115 by spring 19. Connection hole 114 is provided at the bottom of collection chamber 115. Buffer plate 18 is fitted against the inner wall of housing 11 and is located on the right side above connection hole 114. Buffer plate 18 is made of elastic material. Connection hole 114 communicates with connecting pipe 15. Battery 118 is located in power chamber 117 and is electrically connected to motor 110. Power cover 111 is provided on power chamber 117 using a snap-fit structure. Collection wheel 17 is an elastic structure. The collecting wheel 17 has a raised structure, and there is a gap between the upper and lower collecting wheels 17; a retaining ring 14 is fixed to the bottom right side of the housing 11, and a trigger 16 is provided inside the retaining ring 14. The controller of the motor 110 is located on the trigger 16. A handle 12 is fixed to the bottom of the housing 11 on the right side of the retaining ring 14. A heat dissipation hole 13 is opened on the side wall of the housing 11 of the power chamber 116; the storage component 2 includes a box 21, which is divided into an equipment chamber 28 and a storage chamber 26 by a partition. An air pump 29 is fixed in the equipment chamber 28. The output end of the air pump 29 passes through the partition, and a filter screen 210 is fixed at the end of the output end. An opening is provided on the left outer wall of the box 21 of the equipment chamber 28. Switch 211 is electrically connected to the air pump 29, and the air pump 29 has a matching power supply on one side; guide plates 23 are fixed on both sides of the storage cavity 26, the bottom of the storage cavity 26 has a discharge port 25, a storage cover 24 is screwed into the discharge port 25, the left side of the storage cavity 26 has a feed port 22, the feed port 22 is connected to the connecting pipe 15, the storage cavity 26 has air vents 27 on both sides, the upper part of the storage cavity 115 is fixed with a baffle plate 215, the aperture of the baffle plate 215 is smaller than the particle size of pepper; the storage cavity 26 and the equipment cavity 28 are respectively fixed with bolts to the storage cover 213 and the equipment cover 214, and the front of the box 21 is provided with a strap 212 by buckle.
[0018] When using this utility model, carry the box 21 on your back using the shoulder strap 212, hold the handle 12, and turn on the air pump 29 via the switch 211. The air pump 29 draws in air through the vent 27 and, through the connection pipe 15 to the harvesting assembly 1, generates suction in the collection chamber 115. Then, pull the trigger 16 to turn on the motor 110. The motor 110 drives the pulley 112 on the shaft of the collection wheel 17 to rotate via the belt structure 113, thereby causing the upper and lower collection wheels 17 to rotate inward. Then, hold the handle 12 and rotate the collection wheel 17 against the pepper branches. The protrusions on the rotating collection wheel 17 rub against the peppers, thus harvesting the peppers. The collection wheel 17 has an elastic structure to avoid damaging the surface of the peppers. The harvested peppers move inward into the collection chamber 115 by suction. The sucked-in peppers first come into contact with the area located on the right side above the connection port 114. The buffer plate 18 is made of elastic material to avoid damage to the surface of the peppercorns. After being buffered by the spring 19, the peppercorns slow down and enter the connecting pipe 15 through the connecting port 114. Then, they enter the collection chamber 115 of the box 21 through the connecting pipe 15. The baffle plate 215 in the storage chamber 115 blocks the peppercorns in the storage chamber. The filter screen 210 on the output end of the air pump 29 prevents the peppercorns from entering and damaging the equipment. The guide structure in the storage chamber 26 concentrates the collected peppercorns above the discharge port 25. After the peppercorns are harvested, the trigger 16 is released and the switch 211 is turned off. The peppercorns are released from the discharge port 25 by opening the storage cover 24. When it is necessary to clean the inside and maintain the equipment, the bolts on the storage cover 213 and the equipment cover 214 are unscrewed to clean the inside of the storage chamber 26 and to maintain the air pump 29.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this specific embodiment are:
[0020] 1. The belt structure drives the collecting wheel to rotate. In conjunction with the elastic and raised structure of the collecting wheel, the spring-connected buffer plate in the collecting chamber cushions and contains the harvested peppercorns.
[0021] 2. An air pump is installed, which, along with a connecting pipe, connects the harvesting component to the storage component. The shell automatically transports the peppercorns into the storage chamber.
[0022] 3. By installing guide plates on both sides of the bottom of the storage chamber, the accumulation of peppercorns will be prevented, thus ensuring effective pouring.
[0023] 4. With removable storage and equipment covers, the interior of the cabinet can be easily cleaned and the equipment can be maintained.
[0024] For those skilled in the art, modifications can be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, and equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
