Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea tree pruning, specifically a tea tree pruning machine. Background Technology

[0002] Tea trees are shrubs or small trees belonging to the Camellia genus of the Theaceae family. Their young branches are hairless, and their leaves are leathery, oblong or elliptical. Tea trees often need to be pruned during planting for later tea picking or ornamental purposes, and pruning equipment is required during pruning.

[0003] According to Chinese Patent No. CN221128031U, a tea tree pruning machine is disclosed. When the motor is turned on, it drives the drive gear to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear to rotate through the chain. When the drive gear and the driven gear rotate, they drive the blades on the connecting shaft to rotate and prune the tea trees. The screw can be installed and limited by a limiting block sleeved in the partition. After installation, when the operator rotates the screw and moves it up and down in the top plate, the limiting block can drive the partition after limitation to move up and down, thereby adjusting the pruning position and carrying out tea tree pruning.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned patent content, two drive motors are set to drive the cutting blade to prune the tea trees, and two water pumps are set to draw up the pesticide solution and spray it onto the tea trees. However, since both the pruning and spraying processes require two electric mechanisms, the energy consumption of the pruning machine will increase, thus raising the operating cost of the pruning machine. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a tea tree pruning machine to solve the technical problem that setting multiple electric mechanisms will increase the energy consumption of the pruning machine.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a tea tree pruning machine, comprising a movable frame and a lifting plate, wherein a drive motor is installed at the bottom center of the lifting plate, and the output end of the drive motor is connected to a drive shaft; an installation plate is installed at the bottom of the lifting plate via a connecting frame; movable components are provided at the top of the installation plate and the top of the movable frame, and the movable components include a movable groove opened at the top of the installation plate, a second gear sleeved on the outer wall of the drive shaft, a rotating shaft mounted on the top of the installation plate via bearings, and two movable shafts; multiple movable blocks are provided inside the movable groove, and gear rings are installed between the multiple movable blocks; a first gear is sleeved on the outer wall of the movable shaft, and a third gear is sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft; the movable components also include two first one-way valves and two second one-way valves, a motor installed at the top center of the movable frame, two connecting shafts mounted on the top of the movable frame via bearings, and liquid guide pipes located on both sides of the top of the movable frame; driven gears are installed at the top ends of the two connecting shafts, and a drive gear is connected to the output end of the motor.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is necessary to prune the tea trees, the drive motor can be started. The drive motor can drive the drive shaft to rotate, and the drive shaft will drive the second gear to rotate.

[0008] Furthermore, a piston is provided inside the liquid guide tube, and a movable rod extending through the outside of the liquid guide tube is installed on one side of the piston. One end of the movable rod is rotatably connected to a connecting plate, and the connecting plate is rotatably connected to a driven gear.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when the connecting plate moves, it will drive the movable rod to move, and the movable rod will drive the piston to move, so that the piston reciprocates in the liquid guide tube.

[0010] Furthermore, water tanks are installed on both sides of the top of the mobile frame, and a water outlet pipe is connected between the water tank and the liquid guide pipe. The first one-way valve is installed on the water outlet pipe.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the medicine in the water tank can flow into the liquid guide pipe through the water outlet pipe, which facilitates the subsequent flow of medicine into the water delivery pipe.

[0012] Furthermore, water guide plates are installed on both sides of the interior of the mobile frame, and multiple atomizing nozzles are connected to one side of the water guide plate. A water supply pipe is connected between the liquid guide pipe and the water guide plate.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, when the liquid medicine flows into the water guide plate through the water supply pipe, the liquid medicine will enter the atomizing nozzle and be sprayed out through the atomizing nozzle.

[0014] Furthermore, the driving gear meshes with two driven gears.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, when the driving gear rotates, it will drive the two driven gears to rotate, and the driven gears will drive the connecting plate to move.

[0016] Furthermore, the bottom end of the drive shaft and the bottom ends of the two movable shafts both penetrate the mounting plate and are equipped with blades.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when the drive shaft and the movable shaft rotate simultaneously, they will drive the blade to rotate, and the blade can prune the tea tree after it rotates.

[0018] Furthermore, the mobile frame is equipped with rollers on both sides of its bottom, and the water tank is connected to a water inlet pipe at the top.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the rollers facilitate the movement of the mobile frame, while the water inlet pipe facilitates the addition of insecticide and water into the water tank.

[0020] Furthermore, a hydraulic cylinder is installed inside the upper part of the movable frame, and a lifting plate is installed at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder via a piston rod.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is necessary to adjust the height of the blade, the hydraulic cylinder can be activated. The operation of the hydraulic cylinder can extend and retract the piston rod, thereby driving the lifting plate to move.

[0022] Furthermore, the gear ring meshes with the first gear and the third gear respectively.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, when the third gear rotates, it will drive the gear ring to rotate, and the gear ring will drive the first gear to rotate.

[0024] Furthermore, the second gear meshes with the third gear, and the diameter of the second gear is the same as the diameter of the third gear.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, when the second gear rotates, it will drive the third gear to rotate, and ensure that the speed of the third gear is the same as the speed of the second gear.

[0026] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0027] This invention features a movable component. When the drive shaft rotates, it drives the second gear, which in turn drives the third gear, which in turn drives the gear ring, which in turn drives the first gear, and finally drives the movable shaft. The simultaneous rotation of the movable shaft and the drive shaft rotates the blades at the bottom, facilitating the pruning of the tea bushes. This method requires only one drive motor to drive multiple blades, eliminating the need for two additional drive motors and thus reducing energy consumption. Furthermore, when spraying pesticides on the tea bushes during pruning, the motor can be activated. The motor drives the drive gear, which in turn drives the two driven gears, pulling the connecting plate to move. The piston moves by moving a movable rod, which in turn moves a piston. As the driven gear continues to rotate, the piston reciprocates within the liquid guide tube. When the piston moves away from the outlet pipe, the first check valve opens and the second check valve closes, allowing the liquid in the tank to flow into the liquid guide tube through the outlet pipe. When the piston moves towards the outlet pipe, the first check valve closes and the second check valve opens, allowing the liquid in the liquid guide tube to flow into the water supply pipe for spraying through the atomizing nozzle. This method requires only one additional electric mechanism to spray the liquid from both tanks, eliminating the need for two water pumps, thus reducing energy consumption and lowering the machine's operating costs.

[0035] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0036] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.

[0037] Example 1:

[0038] A tea tree pruning machine, such as Figures 1-6As shown, the device includes a movable frame 1 and a lifting plate 6. A drive motor 11 is installed at the bottom center of the lifting plate 6, and the output end of the drive motor 11 is connected to a drive shaft 14. A mounting plate 10 is installed at the bottom of the lifting plate 6 via a connecting frame 8. Movable components 9 are provided on the top of the mounting plate 10 and the top of the movable frame 1. The movable component 9 includes a movable groove 902 opened on the top of the mounting plate 10, a second gear 905 sleeved on the outer wall of the drive shaft 14, and a rotating shaft 906 mounted on the top of the mounting plate 10 via bearings. The movable shaft 908 has multiple movable blocks 903 inside the movable groove 902. The movable groove 902 is ring-shaped, and the movable blocks 903 are slidably connected to the movable groove 902, allowing the movable blocks 903 to slide inside the movable groove 902 to improve the stability of the gear ring 901 when rotating. The gear ring 901 is installed between the multiple movable blocks 903. The outer wall of the movable shaft 908 is sleeved with a first gear 904. A telescopic rod 7 is installed between the lifting plate 6 and the moving frame 1 to improve the stability of the lifting plate 6 when moving.

[0039] Specifically, a third gear 907 is sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 906. When the tea tree needs to be pruned, the drive motor 11 can be started. The drive motor 11 drives the drive shaft 14 to rotate, which in turn drives the second gear 905 to rotate. The bottom end of the drive shaft 14 and the bottom ends of the two movable shafts 908 both pass through the mounting plate 10 and are equipped with blades 12. When the drive shaft 14 and the movable shafts 908 rotate simultaneously, they will drive the blades 12 to rotate, and the rotation of the blades 12 will allow the tea tree to be pruned. The gear ring 901 meshes with the first gear 904 and the third gear 907 respectively. When the third gear 907 rotates, it will drive the gear ring 901 to rotate, and the gear ring 901 will drive the first gear 904 to rotate. The second gear 905 meshes with the third gear 907. The diameter of the second gear 905 is the same as the diameter of the third gear 907. When the second gear 905 rotates, it will drive the third gear 907 to rotate, and ensure that the speed of the third gear 907 is the same as the speed of the second gear 905.

[0040] Specifically, the active component 9 also includes two first one-way valves 914 and two second one-way valves 916, a motor 909 mounted at the middle of the top of the movable frame 1, and two connecting shafts 918 mounted on the top of the movable frame 1 via bearings and liquid guide pipes 915 located on both sides of the top of the movable frame 1. Each of the two connecting shafts 918 has a driven gear 911 mounted at its top. The output end of the motor 909 is connected to a driving gear 910, which meshes with the two driven gears 911. When the driving gear 910 rotates, it drives the two driven gears 911. When the driven gear 911 rotates, it drives the connecting plate 912 to move. A piston 917 is installed inside the liquid guide tube 915, and a movable rod 913 that extends through the outside of the liquid guide tube 915 is installed on one side of the piston 917. One end of the movable rod 913 is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 912, and the connecting plate 912 is rotatably connected to the driven gear 911. When the connecting plate 912 moves, it drives the movable rod 913 to move, and the movable rod 913 drives the piston 917 to move, so that the piston 917 reciprocates inside the liquid guide tube 915.

[0041] Specifically, water tanks 13 are installed on both sides of the top of the mobile frame 1. A water outlet pipe 16 is connected between the water tank 13 and the liquid guide pipe 915. A first one-way valve 914 is installed on the water outlet pipe 16. The liquid medicine in the water tank 13 can flow into the liquid guide pipe 915 through the water outlet pipe 16, which facilitates the subsequent flow of liquid medicine into the water supply pipe 15. Water guide plates 3 are installed on both sides of the interior of the mobile frame 1. Multiple atomizing nozzles 4 are connected to one side of the water guide plate 3. A water supply pipe 15 is connected between the liquid guide pipe 915 and the water guide plate 3. A second one-way valve 916 is installed on the water supply pipe 15. When the liquid medicine flows into the water guide plate 3 through the water supply pipe 15, the liquid medicine will enter the atomizing nozzle 4 and be sprayed out through the atomizing nozzle 4. A water inlet pipe is connected to the top of the water tank 13. The water inlet pipe facilitates the addition of insecticide liquid and water into the water tank 13.

[0042] Example 2:

[0043] Based on the above embodiment one, the following structure will be set up to facilitate the movement of the trimmer.

[0044] See Figures 1-2 The bottom of the mobile frame 1 is equipped with rollers 2 on both sides. The rollers 2 make it easy to move the mobile frame 1 and to prune the tea trees.

[0045] Example 3:

[0046] Based on the above embodiment one, since tea trees of different heights need to be pruned, the height of the blade 12 needs to be adjusted. Therefore, the following structure will be set up.

[0047] See Figures 1-4A hydraulic cylinder 5 is installed inside the upper part of the movable frame 1, and a lifting plate 6 is installed at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 5 through the piston rod. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the blade 12, the hydraulic cylinder 5 can be activated. The operation of the hydraulic cylinder 5 can extend and retract the piston rod, thereby driving the lifting plate 6 to move.

[0048] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, when the staff is pruning the tea tree, the roller 2 pushes the moving frame 1 to move to the tea tree that needs to be pruned. Before use, the medicine and water are added into the water tank 13 through the water inlet pipe. When in use, the drive motor 11 can be started. The drive motor 11 can drive the drive shaft 14 to rotate. When the drive shaft 14 rotates, it will drive the second gear 905 to rotate. When the second gear 905 rotates, it will drive the third gear 907 to rotate, and then drive the gear ring 901 to rotate. Then it will drive the first gear 904 to rotate, and drive the movable shaft 908 to rotate. When the movable shaft 908 and the drive shaft 14 rotate at the same time, the blade 12 at the bottom end can rotate to prune the tea tree. When the pruning position needs to be adjusted, the hydraulic cylinder 5 can be started to extend and retract the piston rod, thereby driving the lifting plate 6 to move, and then driving the blade 12 to move to adjust the height of the blade 12.

[0049] Furthermore, when spraying pesticides on the tea trees during pruning, motor 909 can be started. Motor 909 drives the drive gear 910 to rotate, which in turn drives the two driven gears 911 to rotate, pulling the connecting plate 912 to move. As the connecting plate 912 moves, it drives the movable rod 913 to move, which in turn drives the piston 917 to move. With the continuous rotation of the driven gears, the piston 917 reciprocates within the liquid guide tube 915. And as the piston 917 moves away from the water outlet... When the pipe 16 moves in the direction of the pipe, the first one-way valve 914 opens and the second one-way valve 916 closes. The liquid medicine in the water tank 13 will flow into the liquid guide pipe 915 through the water outlet pipe 16. When the piston 917 moves in the direction of the water outlet pipe 16, the first one-way valve 914 closes and the second one-way valve 916 opens. At this time, the liquid medicine in the liquid guide pipe 915 will flow into the water supply pipe 15, and then flow into the atomizing nozzle 4 through the water guide plate 3, and then be sprayed out through the atomizing nozzle 4.
