An octagonal harvesting device

Abstract

This application relates to an octagonal fruit harvesting device, belonging to the technical field of harvesting devices. An octagonal fruit harvesting device includes: a telescopic rod, a collecting cylinder, a connecting plate, a fruit scraping device, and a support plate. By incorporating the fruit scraping device and the support plate, this application allows for the positioning of octagonal fruit during harvesting. The branches are positioned by wedging them into the V-shaped positioning groove of the scraping plate and the support groove of the support plate. Then, by pushing the telescopic rod, the scraping plate is moved, allowing the scraper to scrape the octagonal fruit from the branches into the collecting cylinder, quickly completing the collection of the octagonal fruit. Furthermore, because the scraping device is located at the top of the collecting cylinder, it effectively prevents the octagonal fruit from falling to the ground.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of harvesting device technology, and more particularly to an octagonal harvesting device. Background Technology

[0002] Star anise is an important flavoring spice and medicinal ingredient. The aromatic oil contained in its fruit, seeds and leaves is widely used in the food industry, cosmetics and pharmaceutical fields.

[0003] Currently, star anise harvesting is still mainly done by traditional manual picking, which requires climbing trees and picking the fruit by hand on the branches. This method of harvesting is inefficient, and there is a risk that the fruit outside the canopy will be abandoned because it cannot be reached. In addition, there is a risk of falling from heights and branches breaking, which poses a high safety risk.

[0004] Because star anise trees have dense branches and their fruits are relatively small, most current harvesting devices are suitable for harvesting other fruit trees, such as apple and orange trees, but not for star anise. Furthermore, some existing star anise harvesting devices fail to harvest all the fruit, and some star anise may fall to the ground during harvesting. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address or partially address the problems existing in the related technologies, this application provides an octagonal harvesting device that can quickly and conveniently collect octagonal fruits and effectively prevent octagonal fruits from falling to the ground.

In addition, there is a risk of falling from heights and branches breaking, which poses a high safety risk.

[0039] Because star anise trees have dense branches and their fruits are relatively small, most current harvesting devices are suitable for harvesting other fruit trees, such as apple and orange trees, but not for star anise. Furthermore, some existing star anise harvesting devices fail to harvest all the fruit, and some star anise may fall to the ground during harvesting.

[0040] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides an octagonal harvesting device that can quickly and conveniently collect octagonal fruits and effectively prevent them from falling to the ground.

[0041] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0048] See Figure 1-6 An octagonal fruit harvesting device includes: a telescopic rod 1, a collecting cylinder 2, a connecting plate 3, a fruit scraping device 4, and a support plate 5.

[0049] The collection cylinder 2 is installed on top of the telescopic rod 1, and the top of the collection cylinder 2 is open.

[0050] The connecting plate 3 and the support plate 5 correspond to the two sides of the collecting cylinder 2, respectively; the connecting plate 3 has a zigzag structure, and one end of the connecting plate 3 extends into the interior of the collecting cylinder 2. The support plate 5 is provided with a support groove 501 for supporting and limiting the branches.

[0051] The fruit scraping device 4 includes: a fixing plate 401, a scraping plate 402, and a scraper 403. The fixing plate 401 is fixedly installed on the connecting plate 3 by bolt connection. The scraping plate 402 is hinged to the top of the fixing plate 401 and fixed in position by bolts. A V-shaped positioning groove 4021 is provided on the scraping plate 402. The scraper 403 is a V-shaped blade and is fixedly installed inside the V-shaped positioning groove 4021 by bolts.

[0052] In this embodiment, by setting up the fruit scraping device 4 and the support plate 5, when harvesting star anise fruits, the branches can be positioned in the V-shaped positioning groove 4021 of the fruit scraping plate 402 and the support groove 501 of the support plate 5. Then, by pushing the telescopic rod 1 to move the fruit scraping plate 402, the star anise fruits on the branches can be hung into the collection cylinder 2 by the scraper 403, which quickly and conveniently completes the collection of star anise fruits. Since the fruit scraping device 4 is located at the top of the collection cylinder 2, it can effectively prevent the star anise from falling to the ground when used with the positioned branches.

[0053] Specifically: the top of the fixing plate 401 is provided with a first connecting rod 4012, and a first connecting through hole 4013 is provided on the first connecting rod 4012; the bottom of the fruit scraper 402 is provided with a second connecting rod 4022, and a second connecting through hole 4023 is provided on the second connecting rod 4022; the fruit scraper 402 is fixed to the fixing plate 401 by bolts passing through the second connecting through hole 4023 and the first connecting through hole 4013.

[0054] In this embodiment, by setting the first connecting rod 4012 and the second connecting rod 4022, the fruit scraping board 402 can be hinged to the fixed plate 401. During use, the angle of the fruit scraping board 402 can be adjusted by bolts to facilitate better fruit scraping and to better clean the star anise fruits on the branches.

[0055] Specifically: The fixing plate 401 is provided with a connecting groove 4011. The fixing plate 401 is fixedly installed on the connecting plate 3 by bolts passing through the connecting groove 4011, and the installation height of the fixing plate 401 is adjusted by the connecting groove 4011.

[0059] In this embodiment, a perforated hole 201 is provided on the side wall of the collection tube 2, which can reduce the weight of the collection tube 2 and make it easier to use. At the same time, by installing a collection bag, it is convenient to collect the fallen star anise fruits in a unified manner.

[0060] Specifically: The bottom of the telescopic rod 1 is provided with a handle 101, which is made of rubber.

[0061] In this embodiment, the handle 101 facilitates the use of the telescopic rod 1.

[0062] The technical solution provided in this application may include the following beneficial effects:

[0063] This application, by setting up a fruit scraping device 4 and a support plate 5, allows the branches to be positioned in the V-shaped positioning groove 4021 of the fruit scraping plate 402 and the support groove 501 of the support plate 5 when harvesting star anise fruits. Then, by pushing the telescopic rod 1 to move the fruit scraping plate 402, the star anise fruits on the branches can be hung into the collection cylinder 2 by the scraper 403, thus quickly completing the collection of star anise fruits. Furthermore, since the fruit scraping device 4 is located at the top of the collection cylinder 2, it can effectively prevent star anise from falling to the ground when used with the positioned branches.

[0064] By setting a first connecting rod 4012 and a second connecting rod 4022, this application enables the fruit scraping board 402 to be hingedly installed on the fixed plate 401. During use, the angle of the fruit scraping board 402 can be adjusted by bolts to facilitate better fruit scraping operations and to better clean the star anise fruits on the branches.
