Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medicinal material equipment technology, and more specifically, it relates to a medicinal material harvesting device. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of planting Chinese medicinal herbs, after the herbs have matured, they need to be dug up from the planting area. To improve efficiency, harvesters are generally used to dig up the herbs.

[0003] In existing harvesters, the shovels are mostly welded to the harvester, and the angle of the shovels is fixed. It is difficult to adjust the angle of entry into the soil according to the depth of the medicinal herb roots or the hardness of the soil. This can lead to digging too deep and damaging the medicinal herbs or digging too shallow and leaving the roots behind. At the same time, when it is necessary to disassemble and maintain the welded shovels, disassembly is difficult, and the replacement cost of the one-piece shovels is high. Therefore, in view of this, we have studied and improved the existing structure and its shortcomings to provide a medicinal herb harvesting device with greater practical value. Utility Model Content

[0023] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 5 As shown:

[0024] This utility model provides a medicinal herb harvesting device, including a harvester body 1. Split-type bearing seats 2 are symmetrically installed on one side of the harvester body 1. Bearings 3 are installed inside each of the two sets of split-type bearing seats 2. Fixed shafts 4 are connected inside each of the two sets of bearings 3. Mounting columns 5 are fixedly installed between the two sets of fixed shafts 4. Multiple sets of fixing frames 6 are engaged on the outer side of each mounting column 5. A shovel plate 7 is inclinedly arranged on one side of the top of each fixing frame 6. A protective cover 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the harvester body 1. An adjustment mechanism 9 for driving the fixed shafts 4 to rotate is provided inside the protective cover 8.

[0025] The adjustment mechanism 9 includes a drive motor 901 fixedly installed inside the protective cover 8. The output end of the drive motor 901 is fixedly connected to a worm gear 902. One end of the fixed shaft 4 extends into the protective cover 8 and is fixedly installed with a worm wheel 903. The worm wheel 903 and the worm gear 902 mesh with each other, which can adjust the angle of the shovel plate 7 according to the needs of use. At the same time, under the self-locking characteristics of the transmission of the worm wheel 903 and the worm gear 902, the angle of the shovel plate 7 is fixed to prevent the angle from shifting due to soil resistance during operation and to ensure the stability of the device.

[0026] The mounting column 5 has multiple sets of threaded holes equidistantly opened on one side, and the fixing frame 6 has mounting holes corresponding to the threaded holes on one side. The mounting holes are all connected to hexagon socket bolts 11, one end of which passes through the mounting hole and is threaded into the corresponding threaded hole. This allows for quick replacement of the fixing frame 6 with the shovel plate 7 as needed, simplifying the process of replacing or repairing the shovel plate 7, and adapting to different row spacing requirements for medicinal materials.

[0027] The socket head cap screw 11 is provided with rubber gaskets 12 on the outside of the stud. Both ends of the rubber gaskets 12 are respectively attached to one side of the socket head cap screw 11 and the inner wall of the mounting hole. The rubber gaskets 12 can absorb vibration energy during operation, reduce the risk of loosening of the socket head cap screw 11, and fill the installation gap to improve the tightness of the connection.

[0028] The split bearing housing 2 includes a base 201, a top cover 202 connected to one side of the base 201, and threaded posts 203 connected to both sides of the base 201. The top cover 202 has through holes corresponding to the threaded posts 203 on both sides. One end of each of the two sets of threaded posts 203 passes through the through holes and is threadedly connected to two sets of nuts 204. The outer diameter of the nuts 204 is larger than the inner diameter of the through holes. The base 201 and the top cover 202 both have mounting grooves corresponding to the bearings 3 inside, and the bearings 3 are fitted into the mounting grooves. The base 201 and the top cover 202 are quickly locked together by the threaded posts 203 and the nuts 204, allowing the bearings 3 to be replaced without disassembling the entire machine, reducing maintenance time and costs, and significantly reducing maintenance difficulty.

[0029] Among them, the inner sidewalls of the multiple sets of fixing frames 6 are symmetrically provided with two sets of limiting strips 10, and the two sides of the mounting column 5 are provided with limiting grooves corresponding to the limiting strips 10. The limiting strips 10 are inserted into the limiting grooves, which can prevent the shovel plate 7 from deflecting during operation, ensure the stability of the tilt angle of the shovel plate 7, and ensure the symmetry between the multiple sets of shovel plates 7.

[0030] The working principle of this embodiment:

[0031] When adjusting the angle of the shovel 7 during the use of the medicinal herb harvesting equipment, first start the drive motor 901, which drives the worm 902 and the worm wheel 903 meshing with the worm 902 to rotate, thereby driving the fixed shaft 4 and the mounting column 5 to rotate synchronously. This allows for easy adjustment of the tilt angle of the shovel 7 according to usage requirements. Simultaneously, the self-locking characteristics of the worm wheel 903 and the worm 902 maintain the stability of the shovel 7 angle, ensuring continuous operation of the shovel 7 at the set angle. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the shovel connected to the shovel... When replacing the mounting bracket 6 of plate 7, first loosen the hex bolt 11 inside the mounting hole, and remove the hex bolt 11 and rubber washer 12 from the mounting hole. Then, pull the mounting bracket 6 out from the outside of the mounting post 5. Next, insert the new mounting bracket 6 with the scraper plate 7 onto the outside of the mounting post 5 with the cooperation of the limiting strip 10 inside the mounting bracket 6 and the limiting groove of the mounting post 5. Then, put the rubber washer 12 and hex bolt 11 into the mounting hole in sequence, and tighten them with a tool.

[0032] The embodiments of this utility model are given for illustrative and descriptive purposes only, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the utility model to the forms disclosed. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The embodiments were chosen and described in order to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of this utility model, and to enable those skilled in the art to understand this utility model and design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for a particular purpose.
