Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of garden tool technology, and discloses a cutter head structure, particularly a cutter head for a wood chipper and a wood chipper having the cutter head. Background Technology
[0002] A wood chipper is a widely used piece of machinery in garden maintenance, primarily used to shred pruned branches, leaves, and weeds, turning them into organic fertilizer or mulch suitable for gardening. The widespread use of this equipment helps reduce green waste, improve resource utilization, and decrease the use of chemical fertilizers, thus having a positive impact on the ecological environment.
[0003] In existing technologies, the cutter head structure of a wood chipper directly affects the efficiency and effectiveness of the shredding process. Current cutter heads typically only have blades and a mixing element; the blades are responsible for cutting branches, while the mixing element assists in agitating the debris. However, because cutting relies solely on the blades, the discharge of debris mainly depends on centrifugal force. When the cutter head rotates at high speed, debris easily accumulates inside, affecting subsequent shredding operations and even causing machine blockage, thus limiting the overall performance of the wood chipper. Therefore, optimizing the cutter head structure to improve shredding efficiency and effectively discharge debris is a pressing technical problem that needs to be solved in this field. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a wood chipper disc that can discharge wood chips in a timely manner, with good chip discharge effect and no clogging.
[0005] This utility model provides a wood chipper disc, including a cutting opening at the edge of the disc, a cutting blade on a first mounting surface of the disc located on one side of the cutting opening, and a chip guide on a second mounting surface opposite to the first mounting surface. The chip guide has a spiral structure, and one end of the chip guide is connected to the side of the cutting opening where the cutting blade is located. When the disc rotates, the wood chips cut from the cutting opening are discharged from the disc along the spiral line of the chip guide.
[0006] With the above structure, the chipper disc of this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0007] Because the second mounting surface of the paper shredder blade of this utility model is provided with a chip guide, which has a spiral structure, when the blade rotates, the wood chips cut off at the cutting opening will be discharged from the blade along the spiral line of the chip guide, resulting in a better chip discharge effect and preventing wood chips from clogging the blade.
[0008] As an improvement, one end of the chip guide is flush with the side wall of the cutting opening where the cutting blade is located; the end face of the chip guide is provided with a guide surface. With this structure, the wood chips cut from the cutting opening can be smoothly guided into the chip guide, resulting in better chip guiding effect.
[0009] As an improvement, the inner side of the chip guide extends towards the cutter head to form a fixing part, which is connected to the cutter head, forming an accommodating space between the cutter head and the chip guide; the chip guide is integrally formed with the cutter head, or the fixing part of the chip guide is detachably connected to the cutter head. With this structure, the chip guide structure is simple.
[0010] As an improvement, the end of the fixing part near the head of the chip guide is fixedly connected to the cutter head by a first fastener; the end of the fixing part near the tail of the chip guide is provided with a boss, and the boss is fixedly connected to the cutter head by a second fastener. With this structure, the chip guide is simple in structure and easy to assemble.
[0011] As an improvement, the first mounting surface of the cutter head is provided with a mounting groove, and the cutting blade is installed in the mounting groove; the bottom of the mounting groove is provided with a connecting hole, and a first fastener passes through the cutting blade and the connecting hole and is fixedly connected to the end of the fixing part near the head of the chip guide. With this structure, the end of the fixing part can be fixed during the assembly of the cutting blade, which is simple in structure and easy to assemble.
[0012] As an improvement, the chip guide component has a chip guiding plane at its tail. This structure increases the chip discharge space at the tail of the chip guide component, making it easier to quickly discharge wood chips.
[0013] As an improvement, a notch is provided at the edge of the cutter disc, and one side of the notch extends downward to form a stirring protrusion that extends into the accommodating space. With this structure, when the cutter disc rotates, branches and leaves fall into the notch, and the stirring protrusion can stir the branches and leaves, which is more conducive to improving the crushing ratio of branches and leaves.
[0014] As an improvement, the cutter head has at least two cutting openings at its edge, and correspondingly, at least two chip guides are provided. These chip guides are connected by a connecting shaft, which is evenly distributed along the circumference of the connecting shaft and is coaxial with the cutter head. This structure, by increasing the number of cutting blades and chip guides, effectively improves the efficiency of shredding branches and leaves.
[0015] As an improvement, the connecting shaft has a mounting hole in its middle, and the cutter head has a through hole in its middle, with the mounting hole and the through hole aligned. This structure facilitates the assembly of the cutter head and improves structural reliability.
[0016] Another technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a wood chipper whose cutter disc can discharge wood chips in a timely manner, with good chip discharge effect and no clogging.
[0017] This utility model provides a wood chipper, including a wood chipper disc with the structure described above.
[0018] With the above structure, the wood chipper of this invention has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0019] Because the second mounting surface of the shredder of this utility model is provided with a chip guide, which has a spiral structure, when the shredder rotates, the wood chips cut off at the cutting opening will be discharged from the shredder along the spiral line of the chip guide, resulting in a better chip discharge effect and preventing wood chips from clogging the shredder.
