[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] In the embodiments, by Figs. 1-3 A protective device for a potato transfer vehicle is provided, comprising a base frame 1, a transfer box 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base frame 1, the top and right ends of the transfer box 2 being open, a baffle 3 hinged to the right end of the transfer box 2, a limiting component 4 for fixing the transfer box 2 and the baffle 3 being provided on the transfer box 2, a rotating shaft 5 rotatably connected to the inner side of the base frame 1, two transfer wheels 6 fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft 5, a traction connector 7 being provided at the left end of the base frame 1, a support component 8 being provided on the transfer box 2 and the baffle 3, and rubber protective pads 9 being affixed to the four inner sides of the transfer box 2 and the left end of the baffle 3.

[0022] With the above setup, the transfer vehicle is connected to a tractor or other towing vehicle via the traction connector 7 at the left end of the base frame 1. Check that the baffle 3 is closed and secure it using the limiting component 4 to ensure the right end of the transfer box 2 is sealed. Potatoes are poured into the box from the opening at the top of the transfer box 2. The rubber protective pads 9 on the four sides of the box interior and the left end of the baffle cushion impacts and reduce damage. After loading, the towing vehicle moves the transfer vehicle, and the transfer wheels 6 on the inner side of the base frame 1 roll with the ground. During transportation, the limiting component 4 prevents the baffle 3 from opening accidentally or the transfer box 2 from deforming. Upon arrival at the destination... Release the limiting component 4, open the baffle 3, and unfold the support component 8 so that the support component 8 can support the baffle 3. At this time, the baffle is in an inclined state (so that the potatoes slide down the baffle, the distance between them and the ground is smaller, and the possibility of potato skin damage is reduced). With manual assistance, tilt the base frame 1 so that the potatoes slide out from the opening at the right end of the transfer box 2. The support component 8 keeps the baffle 3 stable during unloading to prevent it from swinging and affecting the operation. The rubber protective pads 9 on the inside of the transfer box 2 and the baffle 3 effectively buffer the collision, reduce the mechanical damage to the potatoes during transportation, and improve product quality.

[0023] Reference Figs. 1-3 The limiting component 4 includes a limiting column 41. Two limiting columns 41 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the transfer box 2. The top of each limiting column 41 is snapped with a U-shaped snap-fit ​​piece 42. The two U-shaped snap-fit ​​pieces 42 are snapped to the outer side of the baffle 3.

[0024] With the above structural design, the two limiting columns 41 are symmetrically distributed and, together with the U-shaped snap-fit ​​42, enhance the lateral and longitudinal restraint of the baffle 3, preventing the baffle 3 from loosening or accidentally opening due to vibration or bumps during transportation, thus avoiding potato leakage. The split snap-fit ​​structure is easy to disassemble and replace. If the U-shaped snap-fit ​​42 is deformed due to long-term use, only the U-shaped snap-fit ​​42 needs to be replaced, not the baffle 3 or the limiting columns 41, reducing maintenance costs.

[0025] Reference Figs. 1-3 The traction connector 7 includes a traction rod 71, the traction rod 71 is bolted to the inner side of the base frame 1, the traction head 72 is bolted to the outer side of the traction rod 71, and the traction head 72 is provided with a traction hole 73.

[0026] With the above structural design, the traction rod 71 and the traction head 72 adopt a separate bolted connection structure, which allows for quick replacement of the traction head 72 type (such as hook type or ring type) according to the interface requirements of different traction equipment (such as tractors and agricultural vehicles), thereby improving adaptability.

[0027] Reference Figs. 1-3 The support assembly 8 includes a hinge seat 81. The bottom end of the transfer box 2 is fixedly connected to the hinge seat 81. The inner side of the hinge seat 81 is hinged to a support rod 82. The end of the support rod 82 is provided with a hook 83. The right end of the baffle 3 is fixedly connected to a ring 84.

[0028] With the above-mentioned structural design, the support rod 82 is connected to the transfer box 2 and can be freely rotated to adjust the angle. During operation, simply fasten the hook 83 to the ring 84 on the right end of the baffle 3 to quickly complete the support and fixation without the need for complicated tools, which greatly improves loading and unloading efficiency.
