Description

A micro-tiller suitable for use in mountain tea gardens Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of micro-tiller technology, and in particular to a micro-tiller suitable for use in mountain tea gardens. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional tea garden management faces the challenge of high labor intensity. In traditional tea garden management, tasks such as weeding, fertilizing, and loosening the soil are mostly done manually. Tea garden terrain is often complex, mostly mountainous or hilly, making manual operations not only require a large workforce but also extremely strenuous labor. Therefore, micro-tillers have become a very important type of machinery in tea garden management.

[0003] The row spacing in tea plantations is relatively narrow, and the chassis of commonly used mini-tillers is relatively wide, making it inconvenient for them to move between the rows in tea gardens. Moreover, the canopy of tea trees is quite dense, and the commonly used mini-tillers are prone to bumping into the tea trees during operation, causing damage.

[0004] Therefore, how to provide a micro-tiller suitable for use in mountain tea gardens has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0020] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, this utility model provides a micro-tiller suitable for use in mountain tea gardens, including: a chassis, an engine 2, a protective cover 3, a fixed base 7, wheels 5, and a handle 1. The handle 1 is mounted on the support of the chassis via a handle seat, and the fixed base 7 is welded to the handle seat. The engine 2 is mounted on the chassis, and the protective cover 3 is fastened to the engine 2, with one end hinged to the front bumper of the micro-tiller via a hinge 6, and the other end detachably connected to the fixed base 7. The wheels 5 are mounted on the chassis and driven by the engine 2. The protective cover 3 has the following functions: first, it protects the engine 2 during use; second, it prevents the tea trees from being burned when the engine 2 is at high temperatures during operation; third, because densely planted tea gardens have poor mobility, installing the protective cover 3 can improve mobility and prevent tea branches from getting caught. For mountain tea gardens, the wheels 5 can be anti-slip wheels to prevent the micro-tiller from slipping on slopes, thus solving the problem of slippage during walking and operation. The protective cover 3 can be opened when maintaining the engine 2, and is fixed to the mounting base 7 with a wing nut during operation.

[0021] This invention also includes a resistance rod 4, which is mounted on the support of the chassis. The resistance rod is used to increase resistance, thereby reducing the forward speed and increasing the working depth.

[0022] To further optimize the technical solution, the resistance rod 4 is provided with multiple height adjustment threaded holes along the longitudinal direction, and the resistance rod 4 is connected to the chassis by bolts and the engagement of the height threaded holes.

[0023] The handlebar 1 includes a handlebar base and a handlebar frame. The handlebar base is installed at an angle at the rear end of the chassis, and the handlebar frame is telescopically connected within the handlebar base and locked in place by locking bolts. The height of the handlebar 1 can be adjusted according to the user's needs, allowing the operator to maintain a natural and comfortable posture during operation, making it easier to operate the micro-tiller. An anti-slip sleeve can be fitted to the rear end of the handlebar frame to improve its anti-slip performance.

[0024] Further optimizing the technical solution, the engine 2 adopts a 2.5 kW four-stroke gasoline engine 2, which is powerful, lightweight, and can meet the requirements of tea garden use.

[0025] To further optimize the technical solution, the chassis adopts a lightweight vertical shaft chassis with planetary gear transmission.

[0026] This invention selects lightweight but high-strength aluminum alloy material to make the protective cover 3 and some parts, so as to reduce the weight of the chassis and facilitate the movement and operation of operators in the tea garden.

[0027] The working component of this utility model is a blade, installed at the bottom of the frame. The blade is a key working component of the micro-tiller, and its design directly affects the effectiveness of operations such as tillage and weeding. The shape, size, and material of the blade should be optimized according to the soil conditions and operational requirements of the tea garden. For example, for harder soil, sharp, wear-resistant blades can be used; for tea gardens with abundant weeds, blade structures with better weeding effects can be designed, such as rotary tillers and weeding wheels. Multifunctional working components: To improve the versatility and practicality of the micro-tiller, multifunctional working components can be designed. For example, by changing different blades or attachments, the micro-tiller can perform multiple operations such as tillage, weeding, loosening soil, and fertilization, meeting the needs of different management stages of the tea garden. The wheels are mounted on the chassis, allowing for switching between implements for weeding and rotary tillage operations.

[0028] This invention features a compact size, flexible operation, and portability, making it versatile for use in tea gardens. Weeds easily grow between tea bushes, competing for nutrients, water, and sunlight. This mini-tiller, with its small chassis, can nimbly navigate between tea bushes, turning over weeds by the roots to achieve weed control. Furthermore, this physical weeding method avoids the potential harm to the soil and tea bushes caused by chemical herbicides, thus benefiting the tea garden's ecological environment.

[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
