Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fruit picking machine technology, and in particular to a fruit picking machine that can prevent fruit damage. Background Technology
[0002] Fruits are juicy, edible plant fruits with a predominantly sweet and sour taste. Most fruits grow high on trees, requiring farmers to use machinery to climb and harvest them, which compromises both convenience and safety.
[0003] To facilitate fruit picking, a device called a fruit picking machine was invented that can pick fruit from a low position. However, some fruits are fragile, and fruit picking machines inevitably cause damage to the fruits, resulting in some losses. Therefore, we propose a fruit picking machine that can prevent fruit damage. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a fruit picking machine that can prevent fruit damage. When picking fruit using the picking tube, the fruit enters the picking tube along the cutting flap. Due to the setting of the inner buffer cotton ring, it will avoid direct collision with the picking tube, reducing the impact damage to the fruit. The specially shaped bottom tray can also fit the contour of most fruits, better protecting and supporting the fruits.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a fruit picking machine that can prevent fruit damage, including a fruit picking cylinder and an anti-collision mechanism. The anti-collision mechanism includes a bottom tray, which is located at the bottom of the fruit picking cylinder. An inner buffer cotton ring is provided inside the fruit picking cylinder. A connecting outer ring is provided at the connection between the bottom tray and the fruit picking cylinder. The top of the connecting outer ring surrounds the outside of the fruit picking cylinder. A reinforcing component is provided at the connection between the bottom tray and the fruit picking cylinder. The bottom of the bottom tray has a semi-circular structure. The top and bottom of the inner buffer cotton ring both have a sloping structure.
[0006] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the reinforcing component includes a movable groove, which is opened inside the connecting outer ring. A limiting rod is movably connected to the inner side of the movable groove. A positioning slot is opened on the outer side of the fruit picking tube. One end of the limiting rod is movably inserted into the inner side of the positioning slot. One end of the limiting rod located inside the movable groove is semi-open and has a hollow groove. A spring is provided inside the hollow groove. A fixing block is fixedly connected to the other end of the spring. Both ends of the fixing block pass through the hollow groove and are located inside the movable groove and are fixedly connected to the movable groove.
[0007] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the limiting rod is provided with an auxiliary pull block at one end located on the outside of the bottom tray, and the positioning slot is provided with a rubber inner ring and is movably connected to the limiting rod.
[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the top shaft of the fruit picking tube is connected to a cutting flip cover, the outer side of the cutting flip cover is provided with a fixing pull rope, and the bottom end of the fixing pull rope is provided with an auxiliary pull rod.
[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the fruit picking tube is provided with two side connecting rods symmetrically on both sides, and the outer sides of the two side connecting rods are provided with anti-slip texture.
[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, it also includes an auxiliary mechanism, which includes a hollow box disposed on the outside of the fruit picking tube. The top and bottom of the hollow box are provided with communicating grooves that are connected to the inside of the hollow box. The auxiliary pull rod passes through the communicating grooves and is inside the hollow box. A roller is provided inside the hollow box. A pivot is provided at the connection between the roller and the hollow box. A limiting groove is provided on the outside of the roller. The auxiliary pull rod is movably connected to the inside of the limiting groove.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects that this utility model can achieve are:
[0012] 1. With the anti-collision mechanism, when the fruit is picked using the fruit picking tube, it will avoid direct collision with the fruit picking tube as the fruit enters the fruit picking tube along the cut flap. This reduces the impact damage to the fruit. The specially shaped bottom tray can also fit the contour of most fruits, providing better protection and support for the fruit.
[0013] 2. With the auxiliary mechanism, the auxiliary lever can slide within a fixed track when pulled, thereby enhancing the usability of the auxiliary lever.
