[0001] The embodiment of the utility model relates to the sweet sorghum harvesting and squeezing throwing storage all-in-one machine field. More specifically, the utility model relates to a sorghum ear processing device for a sweet sorghum harvesting and squeezing throwing storage all-in-one machine. BACKGROUND
[0002] The sweet sorghum harvesting and squeezing throwing storage all-in-one machine is mainly used for harvesting and squeezing sweet sorghum. The known sweet sorghum harvesting and squeezing throwing storage all-in-one machine usually comprises a motor vehicle, and a harvesting device, a squeezing device, a storage device and a crushing and throwing device installed on the motor vehicle.

[0003] However, the applicant has found by dint of hard work that the known sweet sorghum harvesting and squeezing throwing storage all-in-one machine has hidden defects: it usually sends the sorghum ears of sweet sorghum into the squeezing device together with the straw. This causes the juice of the sorghum ear grains to be mixed into the squeezed sweet sorghum juice, seriously affecting the taste and quality of the sweet sorghum juice, and introducing starch, protein and sorghum red pigment, which seriously increases the subsequent sweet sorghum juice processing cost and difficulty, and reduces the purity and commercial value of the juice. Therefore, how to squeeze the juice after effectively removing the sorghum ears and improve the quality of the sweet sorghum juice is a problem to be solved. CONTENT

[0005] The utility model provides a sorghum ear processing device for a sweet sorghum harvesting and squeezing throwing storage all-in-one machine, which comprises: a cutting and cutting platform, which is arranged above the front end of the sweet sorghum harvesting and squeezing throwing storage all-in-one machine, and is used for cutting off the sorghum ears of sweet sorghum and chopping the cut-off sorghum ears; a suction pipeline with a suction device, which is arranged on the sweet sorghum harvesting and squeezing throwing storage all-in-one machine and connected with the cutting and cutting platform, and is configured to receive the chopped sorghum ears under the action of the suction device and transport and output the chopped sorghum ears.
[0006] The sweet sorghum processing machine is provided with the high stalk processing device, so that the high stalks can be effectively cut off from the sweet sorghum and discharged independently, the problem that the high stalks are mixed into the sweet sorghum juice is solved, the purity and taste of the sweet sorghum juice are improved, and the commercial value and application prospect of the sweet sorghum juice are improved.
[0007] In addition, the high stalk processing device is relatively simple, easy to install and transform on the known sweet sorghum processing machine, has good practicability and popularization value, and can also reduce the processing load of the subsequent juice extractor to a certain extent, improve the working efficiency of the whole machine, and also easily reduce the processing cost and difficulty of the subsequent sweet sorghum juice.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0014] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
[0015] Figure 1 The application device of the sorghum ear processing device. As Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the embodiment of the present application provides a sorghum ear processing device 10 for a sweet sorghum harvesting and juicing integrated machine 200. The sweet sorghum harvesting and juicing integrated machine 200 is an application device of the sorghum ear processing device, mainly used for harvesting and juicing sweet sorghum. The known sweet sorghum harvesting and juicing integrated machine 200 usually includes a motor vehicle 201, and a harvesting device 202, a juicing device 203, a storage device 204 and a crushing and throwing device 205 installed on the motor vehicle 201. The harvesting device 202 is used for harvesting sweet sorghum, the juicing device 203 is used for pressing the harvested sweet sorghum to obtain sweet sorghum juice, the storage device 204 is used for collecting and storing the squeezed sweet sorghum juice, and the crushing and throwing device 205 is used for crushing and throwing the pressed sweet sorghum. For the sake of brevity, the specific structure and working principle of the harvesting device 202, the juicing device 203, the storage device 204 and the crushing and throwing device 205 of the sweet sorghum harvesting and juicing integrated machine 200 please refer to the record of Chinese invention patent document CN2025101164948.
[0016] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the above-mentioned sorghum ear processing device 10 at least includes a cutting and cutting platform 1 and a suction pipeline 2 with a suction device 3. The cutting and cutting platform 1 is arranged above the front end of the sweet sorghum harvesting and juicing integrated machine 200, which is used to cut off the sorghum ear of sweet sorghum and shred the cut sorghum ear. The suction pipeline 2 is arranged on the sweet sorghum harvesting and juicing integrated machine 200 and connected with the cutting and cutting platform 1, and the suction pipeline 2 is configured to receive the crushed material of the sorghum ear under the action of the suction device 3, and transport and output the crushed material of the sorghum ear. That is, the embodiment of the present application can effectively cut, crush and independently discharge the sorghum ear from the sweet sorghum by arranging the cutting and cutting platform 1 and the suction pipeline 2 on the sweet sorghum harvesting and juicing integrated machine 200, which avoids the sorghum ear entering the juicing device 203 of the sweet sorghum harvesting and juicing integrated machine 200 together with the straw, solves the problem of mixing the sorghum ear grain juice into the sweet sorghum juice, and significantly improves the purity and taste of the sweet sorghum juice, which is easy to improve the commercial value and application prospect of the sweet sorghum juice.
[0017] Next, combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 The sorghum head cutting platform 1 is described by way of example. This platform includes a frame 11 positioned above the front end of the sweet sorghum harvesting, pressing, and storage machine 200 (also at the front upper end of the motor vehicle 201); multiple feed rollers 12 rotatably mounted on the frame 11 and spaced apart along the left-right direction of the sweet sorghum harvesting, pressing, and storage machine 200; multiple ear-tip cutters 13 rotatably mounted on the frame 11 and spaced apart along the left-right direction of the sweet sorghum harvesting, pressing, and storage machine 200; a confluence channel 14 mounted on the frame 11 and having an inlet (i.e., an upward-facing open area) and an outlet; and a conveying and cutting assembly 15 located within the confluence channel 14 and capable of conveying and chopping. When the sweet sorghum harvesting, pressing, and storage machine 200 moves forward, the sorghum ears of sweet sorghum preferentially enter the head cutting platform 1, while the sorghum stalks enter the pressing device 203 laterally. The feed wheel 12 with a lever rotates, gathering the scattered sweet sorghum, especially the sorghum ears, and directing them towards the area where the ear tip cutter 13 and the confluence channel 14 are located. This allows the ear tip cutter 13, with its blade, to cut the sorghum ears from the sweet sorghum during rotation. The cut sorghum ears then fall into the inlet of the confluence channel 14. The conveying and cutting assembly 15 operates within the confluence channel 14, transporting the collected sorghum ears from the inlet to the outlet of the confluence channel 14. During this transport, the sorghum ears are further shredded to make them smaller, facilitating subsequent transport through the suction pipeline 2.
[0018] As an example, the number of feed rollers 12 is twice the number of sorghum stalk cutters 13. A sorghum stalk cutter 13 is positioned behind the middle area of every two adjacent feed rollers 12, allowing the two adjacent feed rollers 12 to provide more sorghum stalks to the corresponding sorghum stalk cutter 13 when rotating in opposite directions. This improves the cutting efficiency and quality of the sorghum stalk cutters 13. The feed rollers 12 can be of a conventional structure, for example, including a hub rotatably mounted on a frame 11 and multiple levers arranged circumferentially on the hub. Similarly, the sorghum stalk cutters 13 may also include a hub rotatably mounted on a frame 11 and multiple blades arranged circumferentially on the hub.
[0019] As an example, the conveying assembly 15 includes a conveying shaft 151 rotatably disposed in the manifold 14 and having helical blades 151a. Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the cutting and conveying assembly 15 further comprises a reamer assembly 152. The reamer assembly 152 further comprises a moving cutter 152a fixed on the conveying shaft 151, and a static cutter 152b fixed on the converging channel 14 and adjacent to the moving cutter 152a. The static cutter 152b is directly fixed on the converging channel 14, or indirectly fixed on the converging channel 14 by fixing a ring structure containing the static cutter 152b. When the sorghum heads enter the converging channel 14 through the inlet of the converging channel 14, the helical blade 151a on the conveying shaft 151 rotates to generate an axial thrust to push the sorghum heads entering the converging channel 14 to move towards the outlet of the converging channel 14, thereby achieving the conveying function. At the same time, the moving cutter 152a fixed on the conveying shaft 151 also rotates to form a shearing cooperation with the static cutter 152b fixed on the inner wall of the converging channel 14. When the sorghum heads are conveyed between the moving cutter 152a and the static cutter 152b, the sorghum heads are cut by the shearing force. The cutting and conveying assembly 15 utilizes the same conveying shaft 151 to simultaneously achieve the functions of conveying and cutting, thereby simplifying the structure of the cutting and conveying assembly 15 and ensuring that the subsequent suction pipeline 2 can timely and effectively suck away the cut sorghum heads.
[0020] In the present embodiment, the power of the cutting and conveying assembly 15, the feeding roller 12 and the head cutting knife 13 can be derived from a rotating source provided by itself or the engine or motor of the motor vehicle 201 of the sorghum harvesting, pressing, throwing and storing integrated machine, i.e. a power device. As an example, the sorghum head processing device 10 further comprises a first rotating source 4 provided on the rack 11 and used to drive the conveying shaft 151, and a transmission assembly (for example, chain transmission, worm and gear, or a combination thereof) connecting the feeding roller 12 and the head cutting knife 13 to the power device of the sweet sorghum harvesting, pressing, throwing and storing integrated machine 200, or a second rotating source driving the feeding roller 12 and the head cutting knife 13. The first rotating source 4 and the second rotating source comprise a motor, a reduction motor or a hydraulic motor, etc. which can output rotation.
[0021] In the present embodiment, as shown, Figure 2 The suction pipeline 2 comprises an input pipeline 21 connecting the inlet of the suction device 3 and the outlet of the converging channel 14, and an output pipeline 22 connected to the discharge port of the suction device 3. The suction device 3 comprises an air suction fan or a self-suction type rubbing machine. A complete sorghum head conveying path can be constructed through the input pipeline 21, the suction device 3 and the output pipeline 22. The air suction fan and the self-suction type rubbing machine can generate negative pressure to form an air flow to suck the cut sorghum heads into the conveying path and then discharge them from the conveying path, so as to convey the cut sorghum heads to a designated position, for example, into the crushing and throwing device 205. It should be emphasized that the self-suction type rubbing machine is a known technology in the art, which usually has a rubbing or crushing function in addition to the suction function, and can further process the sorghum heads while sucking.
[0022] As a preferred example, the whole or part of the input pipeline 21 is a flexible pipeline, and the sorghum ear processing device 10 further comprises a lifting support 5 for connecting the cut ear header 1 to the sweet sorghum harvesting, threshing, and storing integrated machine. The flexible pipeline can be selected from a flexible rubber tube, a plastic tube, or a corrugated tube made of metal material, which has the characteristics of being bendable and stretchable. When the input pipeline 21 is connected to the cut ear header 1 and the suction device 3, it can adapt to the position change of the cut ear header 1 during lifting to avoid damage to the suction pipeline 2 caused by hard connection. Preferably, the lifting support 5 comprises a four-bar linkage movable support approximately in the shape of a parallelogram, and a linear driving mechanism (such as a hydraulic cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder, or an electric cylinder, etc.) connected to the four-bar linkage movable support and the motor vehicle 201 and used to drive the end of the four-bar linkage movable support away from the motor vehicle 201 to lift. The cut ear header 1 is fixed to the end of the four-bar linkage movable support away from the motor vehicle 201. Although the cut ear header 1 can be directly fixed to the motor vehicle 201, it is recommended to be connected to the motor vehicle 201 through the lifting support 5 to ensure that the lifting support 5 can adjust the height of the cut ear header 1 to adapt to sweet sorghum of different heights.
[0023] In this embodiment, the sorghum ear processing device 10 can further comprise a material releasing mechanism 6 connected to the suction pipeline 2, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 4 . The material releasing mechanism 6 is used to separate the broken sorghum ear material delivered by the suction pipeline 2 from the airflow and release it in a concentrated manner. As an example, the material releasing mechanism 6 comprises a cylinder 61 provided on the sweet sorghum harvesting, threshing, and storing integrated machine 200, a collection port 62 provided on the side wall of the cylinder 61 and used to collect the broken sorghum ear material discharged by the suction pipeline 2, a release port 63 provided on the bottom of the cylinder 61 and used to release the broken sorghum ear material, and a pressure reduction port 64 provided on the top of the cylinder 61 and used to discharge the gas. When the broken sorghum ear material enters the inside of the cylinder 61 through the collection port 62, it falls in the cylinder 61 due to gravity and is separated from the airflow. The airflow is discharged from the pressure reduction port 64 at the top of the cylinder 61, and the broken sorghum ear material accumulated at the bottom of the cylinder 61 can be discharged through the release port 63.
[0024] As an example, the material releasing mechanism 6 can further comprise a screen 65 provided on the pressure reduction port 64, as shown in Figure 2 . The screen 65 can block the lighter debris in the cylinder 61 from being discharged from the pressure reduction port 64 with the airflow, further improving the solid-gas separation effect and reducing environmental pollution. The bottom of the cylinder 61 is in the shape of a funnel, which is beneficial for the broken sorghum ear material to converge to the center of the bottom of the cylinder 61 under the action of gravity and eventually be discharged through the release port 63, avoiding the accumulation of broken sorghum ear material at the bottom of the cylinder 61 and improving the release efficiency.
[0025] As an example, the release port 63 of the release mechanism 6 is arranged to provide the crushed and thrown out material of the sorghum ears directly or indirectly to the crushing and throwing out device of the sweet sorghum harvesting and throwing out all-in-one machine 200. As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 4 The position of the release port 63 is designed to provide the crushed and thrown out material of the sorghum ears directly to the crushing and throwing out device 205 or to provide the crushed and thrown out material of the sorghum ears to the crushing and throwing out device 205 through the conveying mechanism. After the crushed and thrown out material of the sorghum ears and the sweet sorghum stalks after juice extraction enter the crushing and throwing out device 205, the crushing and throwing out device 205 can not only crush the sweet sorghum stalks after juice extraction, but also mix the sweet sorghum stalks after juice extraction with the crushed and thrown out material of the sorghum ears, and throw out the mixed silage to the truck, so as to ensure that the silage has higher nutritional value due to the crushed and thrown out material of the sorghum ears.
