Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural equipment technology, and in particular to a fruit picking device. Background Technology
[0002] Fruit farming is a major source of income for farmers, but because most fruit trees are tall and have lush foliage, harvesting fruit has always been a major problem for fruit farmers. Generally, when harvesting fruit, operators simply pick the fruit and throw it directly into the basket, which easily damages the fruit's skin, causing it to rot. In addition, it consumes a lot of manpower, is slow, and wastes time.
[0003] Existing fruit-picking devices mostly consist of long poles with a shearing mechanism installed at the top to separate the fruit from the branches. A net is then used to collect the fruit. However, the net has low pressure resistance, and the long pole becomes increasingly heavy as the fruit accumulates, thus affecting the picking efficiency. Therefore, a new fruit-picking device is needed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a fruit picking device.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a fruit picking device, comprising a rod body, a slot at the top of the rod body, a locking block installed inside the slot, a second mounting groove on the side surface of the locking block, a shearing mechanism installed inside the second mounting groove, a fixing block fixedly connected to the side surface of the rod body, a limiting groove inside the fixing block, a connecting rod movably connected inside the limiting groove, a limiting hole inside the connecting rod, a rectangular groove at the bottom of the fixing block, a fixing post fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rectangular groove, a spring sleeved on the outer surface of the fixing post, a sliding rod slidably connected to the outer surface of the fixing post, and a limiting post fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding rod, the limiting post slidably connected to the inside of the fixing block, and the limiting post located inside the limiting hole, a collecting rack fixedly connected to the side surface of the connecting rod, a telescopic tube fixedly connected to the bottom of the collecting rack, a collecting basket fixedly connected to the end of the telescopic tube away from the collecting rack, and an elastic band fixedly connected to the inner wall of the collecting basket.
[0006] Furthermore, a discharge pipe is fixedly connected to the side surface of the collection basket, and the position of the discharge pipe corresponds to that of the elastic band.
[0007] Furthermore: the shearing mechanism includes a connecting frame and a cutting blade, a bidirectional threaded rod is rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the second mounting groove, the connecting frame is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the bidirectional threaded rod, and two connecting frames are provided, with a cutting blade fixedly connected to the opposite face of each of the two connecting frames.
[0008] Furthermore: the end of the bidirectional threaded rod away from the locking block is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, and the front end face of the motor is fixedly connected to the support plate, and the motor is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the front end face of the rod is provided with a first mounting groove, and the interior of the first mounting groove is provided with a through hole.
[0010] Furthermore: the front end face of the card block is provided with a threaded groove, and a screw is movably connected inside the through hole, and the screw is threadedly connected to the inside of the threaded groove.
[0011] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] 1. Compared with existing technologies, by setting up a collection rack, telescopic tube, collection basket and elastic belt, the fruit branches are cut by a cutting mechanism. The fruit is guided by the telescopic tube and falls onto the elastic belt inside the collection basket. The elastic belt cushions the fruit and makes it easy to collect. The pole can move during the fruit cutting process and will not be affected by the weight of the fruit. This facilitates the rapid collection of fruit and improves the efficiency of harvesting.
[0013] 2. Compared with the existing technology, by setting up a sliding rod, a limiting post, and a limiting groove, pushing the sliding rod compresses the spring, thereby driving the limiting post to move outward of the fixed block. Then, the connecting rod is inserted into the limiting groove. When the pushing force on the sliding rod is withdrawn, the sliding rod drives the limiting post to move into the limiting hole. Thus, the collection rack and telescopic tube can be installed through the connecting rod, which also facilitates their disassembly and replacement, thereby enhancing the practicality of the device.

A fixed post 14 is fitted with a spring 15 on its outer surface. A sliding rod 16 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the fixed post 14, and a limiting post 17 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the sliding rod 16. The limiting post 17 is slidably connected to the inside of the fixed block 12 and is located inside the limiting hole 19. A collecting rack 20 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the connecting rod 18. A telescopic tube 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the collecting rack 20. A collecting basket 22 is fixedly connected to the end of the telescopic tube 21 away from the collecting rack 20, and an elastic band 23 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the collecting basket 22. The fruit branches are cut by the cutting mechanism 25. The fruit falls onto the elastic band 12 inside the collecting basket 22 under the guidance of the telescopic tube 21. The elastic band 12 cushions the fruit, making it easy to collect. The rod 1 can move during the fruit cutting process and is not affected by the weight of the fruit, which is conducive to the rapid collection of the fruit and thus improves the efficiency of harvesting. Pushing the slide rod 16 compresses the spring 15, thereby moving the limiting post 17 outward from the fixed block 12. Then, the connecting rod 18 is inserted into the limiting groove 13. When the pushing force on the slide rod 16 is withdrawn, the slide rod 16 moves the limiting post 17 into the limiting hole 19. Thus, the collection rack 20 and the telescopic tube 21 are installed through the connecting rod 18, which also facilitates their disassembly and replacement, thereby enhancing the practicality of the device.

The connecting frame 10 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the bidirectional threaded rod 9. Two connecting frames 10 are provided, and the cutting blade 11 is fixedly connected to the opposite surfaces of the two connecting frames 10. When the bidirectional threaded rod 9 rotates, it can drive the two connecting frames 10 to move from the inside to the outside or from the outside to the inside, thereby cutting the fruit joints through the cutting blade 11.
[0025] The output end of a motor 8 is fixedly connected to the end of a bidirectional threaded rod 9 away from the locking block 3, and a support plate is fixedly connected to the front end face of the motor 8.

[0026] The front end face of the rod 1 has a first mounting groove 6, and the interior of the first mounting groove 6 has a through hole. The front end face of the locking block 3 has a threaded groove 4, and a screw 5 is movably connected inside the through hole, with the screw 5 threadedly connected to the inside of the threaded groove 4. The locking block 3 is fixed inside the locking groove 2 using the screw 5.
[0027] Working principle: The cutting mechanism 25 cuts off the fruit branches, and the fruit falls onto the elastic band 12 inside the collection basket 22 under the guidance of the telescopic tube 21.
