Detailed Implementation
[0025] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0026] Reference Figure 1-5 This utility model discloses a handheld tool for harvesting fruit from fruit trees, comprising a mounting ring 1, with a collection basket 2 fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting ring 1 for collecting the harvested fruit. A handheld handle 3 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting ring 1, and a U-shaped fixing frame 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting ring 1 and the side near the handheld handle 3. Two blades 6 are provided opposite to each other on the inner side of the fixing frame 5, one blade 6 is fixedly connected to the fixing frame 5, and the other blade 6 is mounted on the fixing frame 5 through a moving component. The moving component includes a movable rod 7 fixedly and slidably connected inside the fixing frame 5, a push plate 9 fixedly connected to one end of the movable rod 7, and a spring 8 sleeved on the outside of the movable rod 7. The spring 8 is located between the push plate 9 and the fixing frame 5. The movable blade 6 is fixedly connected to the other end of the movable rod 7. The bottom of the push plate 9 is designed with a sloped structure. A push rod 4 that can move up and down is provided on one side of the handheld handle 3. A top rod 10 is rotatably connected to one side of the push rod 4, and the top rod 10 is slidably connected to the sloped structure of the push plate 9.
[0027] The user holds the handheld lever 3 and moves the collection basket 2 below the fruit, positioning the fruit branches between the blades 6. When the user pushes the push rod 4 upwards, the top rod 10 moves accordingly and slides along the inclined structure of the push plate 9, thus pushing the push plate 9 towards the fixed frame 5. The moving push plate 9 drives the movable rod 7 and its blades 6 to move, thereby closing the blades 6 and completing the fruit cutting and harvesting. After harvesting, the fruit falls into the collection basket 2. Releasing the push rod 4 allows the fruit to fall under gravity. The spring 8 resets the movable rod 7 and its blades 6, facilitating continuous fruit harvesting. This handheld tool is simple and convenient to operate, improving the efficiency and ease of fruit harvesting, and is better suited for harvesting fruits from high places, making it highly practical.
[0028] To meet the harvesting needs of fruit trees of different heights, the bottom of the handheld handle 3 is provided with a first extension rod 12. The handheld handle 3 is slidably connected to the inside of the first extension rod 12. The inside of the first extension rod 12 and the side near the top is threaded with a first positioning screw 14. One end of the first positioning screw 14 contacts the outside of the handheld handle 3.
[0029] The operator can adjust the position of the hand lever 3 inside the first extension rod 12 by rotating the first positioning screw 14, thereby adjusting the length of the hand lever 3. After adjustment, tighten the first positioning screw 14 to fix it.
[0030] The push rod 4 has a second extension rod 15 at its bottom. The push rod 4 is slidably connected to the inside of the second extension rod 15. The second positioning screw 16 is threadedly connected to the inside of the second extension rod 15 near the top. One end of the second positioning screw 16 contacts the outside of the push rod 4. The hand handle 3 near the top and the first extension rod 12 near the bottom are both fixedly connected to the fixing plate 18. The push rod 4 is slidably connected to the inside of the upper fixing plate 18, and the second extension rod 15 is slidably connected to the inside of the lower fixing plate 18.
[0031] The second extension rod 15 and the push rod 4 are movable inside the fixed plate 18, ensuring the stability and reliability of the push rod 4 and the second extension rod 15 during operation. Simultaneously, the operator can adjust the position of the push rod 4 inside the second extension rod 15 by rotating the second positioning screw 16, thereby adjusting the length of the push rod 4. After adjustment, the second positioning screw 16 is tightened for fixation.
[0032] A handle 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first extension rod 12, and an anti-slip rubber sleeve is fixedly connected to the outside of the handle 13 for easy gripping by the user. An operating handle 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second extension rod 15 for controlling the movement of the second extension rod 15 and its upper push rod 4.
[0033] Two guide plates 11 are symmetrically fixed to the top of the fixing frame 5. The guide plates 11 have a V-shaped structure and are used to guide the branches of the fruit into the space between the blades 6. A limit plate 19 is fixedly connected to the outside of the second extension rod 15 of the collection basket 2 and above the fixing plate 18 to limit the downward movement range of the second extension rod 15.
[0034] The mounting ring 1, handheld lever 3, push rod 4, first extension rod 12, and second extension rod 15 all have hollow interiors. The hollow interiors of the first extension rod 12 and second extension rod 15 facilitate the retraction of the handheld lever 3 and push rod 4. The hollow interiors of the mounting ring 1, handheld lever 3, and push rod 4 contribute to the lightweight design of this handheld tool, making it easier to operate. The collection basket 2 is a flexible mesh bag, further reducing its weight.
[0035] Working principle: The user holds the handheld lever 3 and moves the collection basket 2 below the fruit, positioning the fruit branches between the blades 6. When the user pushes the push rod 4 upwards, the top rod 10 moves accordingly and slides along the inclined structure of the push plate 9, thus pushing the push plate 9 towards the fixed frame 5. The moving push plate 9 drives the movable rod 7 and its blades 6 to move, thereby closing the blades 6 and completing the cutting and harvesting of the fruit. After harvesting, the fruit falls into the collection basket 2. Releasing the push rod 4 allows the fruit to fall under gravity. The spring 8 resets the movable rod 7 and its blades 6, facilitating continuous fruit harvesting. This handheld tool is simple and convenient to operate, improving the efficiency and convenience of fruit harvesting, and is better suited for harvesting fruits from high places, making it highly practical.
[0036] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
