[0002] A berry is a soft, juicy, fleshy fruit that develops from the ovary or together with other floral parts. There are many types of berry trees, such as kiwifruit, raspberry, currant, blueberry, mulberry, pomegranate, and star fruit. However, because most of these trees are tall and have lush foliage, harvesting the fruit by hand often requires climbing, which is somewhat dangerous. Although some specialized tools for picking berries have appeared on the market, they have not yet completely solved the problem of difficult fruit harvesting.

[0003] Most existing berry harvesting tools cannot achieve integrated picking; they can only pick the fruit but cannot effectively collect it. Furthermore, some tools are not easy to adjust the blade angle during harvesting, requiring both hands to rotate the handle when harvesting berries from other angles. When the bag is full of berries, this can cause it to wobble and pose a safety hazard. Therefore, this invention provides a mechanical tool for berry harvesting with multi-angle harvesting capabilities to solve the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 8In this embodiment of the invention, a mechanical tool for berry harvesting with multi-angle harvesting function includes a support rod 1. The support rod 1 has a drive assembly for multi-angle harvesting inside. A second rotating shaft 7 is rotatably mounted inside the support rod 1. An adjusting rod 11 is slidably mounted inside the second rotating shaft 7. To ensure that the adjusting rod 11 can rotate with the second rotating shaft 7 while sliding up and down, a rectangular groove 9 is provided inside the second rotating shaft 7. A rectangular block 10 is fixedly mounted at the bottom end of the adjusting rod 11 and slidably mounted inside the rectangular groove 9. A mounting plate 12 is fixedly mounted at the top end of the adjusting rod 11. A lifting rod 13 is slidably mounted on the surface of the support rod 1. To ensure that the lifting rod 13 can stably slide up and down on the surface of the support rod 1... A slider 14 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the lifting rod 13. A groove 15 is opened on the surface of the support rod 1, and the slider 14 is slidably installed in the groove 15. A fixing component for fixing the position of the lifting rod 13 is provided inside the lifting rod 13. In order to ensure that the mounting plate 12 can move up and down with the lifting rod 13 while rotating stably, a limiting block 22 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 12. A limiting groove 23 is opened on the top surface of the lifting rod 13, and the limiting block 22 is slidably installed in the limiting groove 23. A storage bag 24 for storing berries is fixedly installed on the surface of the mounting plate 12. An mounting frame 25 is also fixedly installed on the surface of the mounting plate 12. A cutting device for cutting off fruit stems is provided on the surface of the mounting frame 25. A handle 35 is fixedly installed on the surface of the support rod 1.

[0027] To facilitate berry harvesting from multiple angles, the positions of the first blade 26 and the second blade 27 need to be adjusted. The drive assembly includes a first rotating shaft 2 rotatably mounted inside the support rod 1. A handwheel 3 is fixedly mounted on one end of the first rotating shaft 2, and a first bevel gear 4 is fixedly mounted on the end of the first rotating shaft 2 away from the handwheel 3. A second bevel gear 8 is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the second rotating shaft 7, and the second bevel gear 8 meshes with the first bevel gear 4. An insertion hole 5 is provided on the surface of the first rotating shaft 2, and a bolt 6 is threaded inside the support rod 1. Multiple sets of insertion holes 5 are provided. By inserting the bolt 6 into the insertion hole 5, the first rotating shaft 2 can be positioned to prevent the first blade 26 and the second blade 27 from shifting during use.

[0028] To accommodate fruit trees of different heights, the height of the device often needs to be adjusted. This device achieves this by adjusting the position of the lifting rod 13. After adjusting the heights of the first blade 26 and the second blade 27, a fixing assembly is needed to fix the lifting rod 13. The fixing assembly includes a spring groove 16 inside the lifting rod 13. A pull rod 17 is slidably installed inside the spring groove 16. A movable block 18 is fixedly installed at one end of the pull rod 17. A first spring 19 is fixedly installed on the side of the movable block 18 closest to the pull rod 17. The first spring 19 is sleeved on the surface of the pull rod 17. A positioning block 20 is fixedly installed on the side of the movable block 18 away from the pull rod 17. A positioning hole 21 is opened on the surface of the support rod 1, and multiple sets of positioning holes 21 are arranged in an array along the axial direction of the support rod 1. The positioning block 20 is correspondingly set with the positioning hole 21.

[0029] To facilitate berry harvesting and ensure the berries fall quickly into the storage bag 24, the berry stems need to be cut. The cutting device includes a first blade 26 fixedly mounted on the surface of the mounting frame 25, a blade holder 32 movably mounted on the surface of the mounting frame 25, a second blade 27 fixedly mounted on the surface of the blade holder 32, and a fixed rod 29 fixedly mounted inside the mounting frame 25. To ensure the second blade 27 can move stably, a moving groove 28 is provided inside the mounting frame 25, and the fixed rod 29 is located in the moving groove 28. A moving block 30 is slidably mounted on the surface of the fixed rod 29, and a second spring 31 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the moving block 30 and sleeved on the surface of the fixed rod 29. The moving block 30 is fixedly connected to the blade holder 32, and a connecting frame 33 is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the blade holder 32. A pull rope 34 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the connecting frame 33 and passes through the support rod 1 and the lifting rod 13.

[0030] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Before harvesting the berries, the worker can move the lifting rod 13 according to the height of the berries to adjust the overall height of the device. During adjustment, pulling the lever 17 outward causes the movable block 18 and the positioning block 20 to move, compressing the first spring 19 and causing the positioning block 20 to move out of the positioning hole 21. This allows the lifting rod 13 to move up and down, sliding along the support rod 1. After adjusting the height of the first blade 26 and the second blade 27 to the appropriate position, the lever 17 is released. Under the restoring force of the first spring 19, the movable block 18 and the positioning block 20 are moved, so that the positioning block 20 enters the positioning hole 21, thus fixing the lifting rod 13. During harvesting, the worker grips the handle 35 with their right hand and lifts the support rod 1 upwards, so that the harvested berries are above the collection bag 24, with the first blade 26 and the second blade 27 located at the stem of the berry. Pulling down the pull rope 34 moves the connecting frame 33, which in turn moves the blade holder 32 and the movable block 30. The second spring 31 is compressed, causing the first blade 26 and the second blade 27 to move. The second blade 27 moves towards the first blade 26, and in conjunction with the first blade 26, cuts the stem of the berry. The berries with severed stems fall into the collection bag 24, which allows for temporary collection. After cutting, the pull rope 34 is released, and under the restoring force of the second spring 31, the moving block 30 slides along the fixed rod 29, causing the blade holder 32 to move. This, in turn, moves the second blade 27 away from the first blade 26, facilitating the harvesting of the next group of berries. When there are berries to harvest in other directions of the rod, Turning the handwheel 3 with the left hand drives the first shaft 2 to rotate, causing the first bevel gear 4 to rotate. The first bevel gear 4 meshes with the second bevel gear 8, which in turn drives the second bevel gear 8 to rotate, causing the second shaft 7 to rotate. This causes the rectangular block 10 in the rectangular groove 9 to rotate, which in turn drives the adjusting rod 11 to rotate, causing the mounting plate 12 to rotate. This, in turn, drives the mounting frame 25 to rotate, allowing the position of the storage bag 24, the first blade 26, and the second blade 27 to be adjusted. This facilitates the harvesting of berries at other angles without having to rotate the rod, making the operation more stable.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
