[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of grass seed harvesting technology, and more specifically, it relates to a portable wild grass seed harvesting device. Background Technology
[0002] Wild grass seeds, as seeds of herbaceous plants that reproduce autonomously in the natural environment, play an important role in ecological maintenance, agricultural production, and horticultural landscapes due to their rich genetic diversity and strong environmental adaptability. Scientific harvesting of these natural seeds can be applied to artificial planting, variety improvement, and ecological engineering to meet the practical needs of multiple fields. Furthermore, rational planning can prevent overexploitation, achieving a balance between resource utilization and ecological protection, and promoting the sustainable development of wild grass seed resources. Traditional wild grass seed collection requires workers to separate the seeds from the plants by twisting and pulling with their hands or fingers. This repetitive hand movements over extended periods are labor-intensive and inefficient. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a portable wild grass seed harvesting device. This device solves the technical problem that, in traditional wild grass seed collection, workers must manually peel the grass seeds, resulting in high labor intensity and low collection efficiency due to prolonged repetitive actions.
[0004] The purpose and effectiveness of this portable wild grass seed harvesting device are achieved through the following specific technical means:
[0005] A portable wild grass seed harvesting device includes a harvesting box and a storage box arranged opposite each other. An installation component is provided on the side of the harvesting box opposite the storage box. An installation groove is formed in the storage box corresponding to the installation component, and the installation component is detachably inserted into the installation groove. An assembly groove is also formed on the side of the harvesting box away from the storage box, and a harvesting component is replaced in the assembly groove. Two sets of assembly slots are also arranged opposite each other inside the harvesting box, and sieving components are detachably installed in the two sets of assembly slots. A collecting component is provided on the side of the storage box away from the harvesting box, and the top end of the collecting component is inserted into the storage box. A funnel-shaped guide is also provided inside the storage box, and the top end of the collecting component contacts the guide.
[0006] The above technical solution further includes that an installation clip is provided on one side of the harvesting component, and the harvesting component is replaced and installed in the harvesting box through the installation clip; multiple sets of limiting protrusions are evenly arranged in the harvesting box, and the installation clip is also provided with a slot corresponding to the multiple sets of limiting protrusions, and the limiting protrusions are disposed in the slot.
[0007] The above technical solution further includes that multiple sets of toothed spikes are evenly arranged on the other side of the harvesting component, and a release plate is provided between every two sets of toothed spikes.
[0008] The above technical solution further includes that guide grooves are provided through both sides of the harvesting box, and a lever is slidably provided in the guide groove.
[0009] The above technical solution further includes that the collecting component is also provided with a magnetic plate, and the top of the collecting component contacts the storage box through the magnetic plate.
[0010] The above technical solution further includes that the collecting component is provided with a feeding plate, and the feeding plate is evenly provided with multiple sets of funnel-shaped one-way tubes.
[0011] The above technical solution further includes that the top of the storage box is also provided with a grip rod for easy handling.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] 1. The harvesting box and storage box are connected via mounting parts and mounting slots. This connection method allows for quick disassembly and assembly of the two main components, reducing space occupation when not in use and facilitating storage and transportation. The harvesting component can be flexibly replaced through the cooperation of mounting clips and slots, and the sieving component can also be disassembled from the assembly slot, allowing unnecessary parts to be separated during transport and reducing the overall weight. Meanwhile, the grip bar on the top of the storage box provides a stable grip point for easy handheld operation; it also allows easy access to grass seed growth points when traversing densely vegetated areas, meeting the portability requirements of the device in different working environments and ensuring that the device can be easily carried to various wild grass seed growing areas for operation.
[0014] 2. The toothed spikes of the harvesting device pierce the wild grass upon contact with the grass stalks, and the scraping action of the release plate dislodges mature seeds, completing the harvest. The dislodged seeds enter the harvesting box with airflow or gravity, and are filtered through the different aperture screens of the sieving device. Large impurities such as leaves and stems are intercepted, while fine particles are discharged through the mesh, achieving preliminary screening. The screened grass seeds slide down the funnel-shaped guide to the bottom of the collection box. The inclined angle of the guide ensures the directional flow of seeds. The top of the collecting device fits tightly with the guide. The one-way tube on the feed plate is funnel-shaped, allowing seeds to fall into the collection chamber under gravity, but the seeds in the chamber cannot flow backward due to the narrowing of the tube diameter, preventing backflow. The magnetic plate provides stable adsorption force, ensuring a tight connection between the collecting device and the collection box, preventing loosening and seed leakage during operation. This structure eliminates the need for manual transfer of grass seeds from harvest to collection, reducing sorting and handling steps and lowering labor intensity. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, but should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0023] Example:
[0024] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, this utility model provides a portable wild grass seed harvesting device, including a harvesting box 1 and a storage box 2 arranged opposite to each other. An installation component 101 is provided on one side of the harvesting box 1 and the storage box 2 opposite to the installation component 101. The storage box 2 has an installation groove corresponding to the installation component 101, and the installation component 101 is detachably inserted into the installation groove. An assembly groove is also provided on the side of the harvesting box 1 away from the storage box 2, and a harvesting component 3 is replaced within the assembly groove. Two sets of assembly grooves are also arranged opposite to each other inside the harvesting box 1, and a sieving component 102 is detachably installed within each of the two sets of assembly grooves. A collecting component 4 is provided on the side of the storage box 2 away from the harvesting box 1, with the top end of the collecting component 4 inserted into the storage box 2. A funnel-shaped guide component 103 is also provided inside the storage box 2, and the top end of the collecting component 4 contacts the guide component 103. The harvesting box 1 and the storage box 2 are connected by the installation component 101 and the installation groove, forming a detachable and combinable structure. When in use, the mounting part 101 is inserted into the mounting slot to achieve a stable connection and ensure the overall structural strength of the device; when not in use, the mounting part 101 is pulled out of the mounting slot, the two parts are separated, the overall volume is reduced, the storage space required is reduced, and the disassembled parts are easier to handle and transport, improving portability.
[0025] Harvesting component 3 is installed in the assembly slot of harvesting box 1. By replacing different types of harvesting components 3, it can adapt to the harvesting needs of different types and growth stages of wild grass seeds. For grass seeds with varying stem thicknesses and seed growth positions, simply replacing the corresponding harvesting component 3 allows for efficient harvesting, expanding the application scenarios of the device and improving its versatility. Simultaneously, screening component 102 is detached and installed in the assembly slot of harvesting box 1. After the grass seeds enter harvesting box 1, screening component 102 performs preliminary screening. Impurities such as branches, leaves, and stems mixed in are intercepted above screening component 102, allowing the grass seeds to fall into collection box 2 through screening component 102. This reduces the impurity cleaning steps in subsequent grass seed processing, improving the efficiency and purity of grass seed collection.
[0026] The storage box 2 is equipped with a funnel-shaped guide 103. After being screened by the sieve 102, the grass seeds slide down the inclined surface of the guide 103. The guide 103 concentrates and guides the grass seeds to the top of the collector 4. The top of the collector 4 contacts the guide 103, ensuring that the grass seeds fall accurately into the collector 4 and preventing the grass seeds from scattering and accumulating in the storage box 2, thus achieving orderly collection of grass seeds.
[0027] The harvesting box 1 has guide grooves 401 extending through both sides, and a lever 402 is slidably mounted within each guide groove 401. The guide grooves 401 and lever 402 cooperate, allowing the lever 402 to slide within the guide grooves 401. During harvesting, grass stalks, branches, and other impurities enter the harvesting box 1. By pushing the lever 402 along the guide grooves 401, the lever 402 can clear excess weeds from the harvesting box 1 in a specific direction. The guide grooves 401 limit the sliding trajectory of the lever 402, ensuring stable cleaning action, preventing weed residue from affecting seed collection, maintaining the cleanliness of the harvesting box 1, and improving seed purity.
[0028] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a mounting clip 201 is provided on one side of the harvester 3, and the harvester 3 is replaced and installed in the harvester box 1 through the mounting clip 201. Multiple sets of limiting protrusions 202 are evenly arranged inside the harvester box 1. The mounting clip 201 is also provided with a slot 203 corresponding to the multiple sets of limiting protrusions 202, and the limiting protrusions 202 are located in the slot 203. Multiple sets of toothed nails 301 are also evenly arranged on the other side of the harvester 3, and a release plate 302 is provided between every two sets of toothed nails 301. The harvester 3 is connected to the harvester box 1 through the mounting clip 201. During installation, the mounting clip 201 of the harvester 3 is aligned with the harvester box 1, and pushed to make the limiting protrusions 202 embed into the slots 203, using the engagement to fix the position of the harvester 3. During disassembly, reverse force is applied to disengage the limiting protrusions 202 from the slots 203, and the harvester 3 can be removed. This structure allows for quick replacement of different types of harvesting parts 3. For wild grass species of different heights and maturity levels, the appropriate harvesting parts 3 can be replaced to meet diverse harvesting needs.
[0029] The harvesting component 3 has multiple sets of toothed spikes 301 on its surface. During operation, the spikes 301 directly penetrate the grass stalks, precisely contacting the seed growth area. A release plate 302 is located between two adjacent sets of spikes 301. After the spikes 301 grasp the seed, moving the harvesting component 3 causes the release plate 302 to exert a scraping force on the grass stalk, disrupting the connection between the seed and the plant, thus causing the seed to detach. The spikes 301 and the release plate 302 work together to efficiently separate the seed from the plant, completing the harvesting process and improving harvesting efficiency.
[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the collecting component 4 is also equipped with a magnetic plate 501, and the top of the collecting component 4 contacts the storage box 2 through the magnetic plate 501. A feeding plate 601 is also installed inside the collecting component 4, and multiple sets of funnel-shaped one-way tubes 602 are evenly arranged on the feeding plate 601. The magnetic plate 501 at the top of the collecting component 4 connects to the storage box 2 through magnetic attraction. During installation, the collecting component 4 is brought close to the storage box 2, and the magnetic plate 501 and the surface of the storage box 2 generate a magnetic force that automatically attracts them, ensuring precise alignment and tight fit between the collecting component 4 and the storage box 2, guaranteeing a stable connection. During disassembly, applying external force to overcome the magnetic force allows the collecting component 4 to be separated from the storage box 2, facilitating cleaning, maintenance, or replacement of the collecting component 4, meeting the needs of different operating scenarios.
[0031] Multiple sets of funnel-shaped one-way tubes 602 are installed on the feed plate 601 inside the collection component 4. Grass seeds are guided downwards by the guide component 103 inside the storage box 2 and enter the larger diameter portion of the upper end of the one-way tube 602. Due to gravity, the grass seeds slide down the inner wall of the one-way tube 602 and fall into the collection component 4 through the smaller diameter portion of the lower end. The one-way tube 602's wider upper and narrower lower structure forms a physical barrier, preventing the grass seeds from flowing back through the narrow lower opening after entering the collection component 4. This avoids the collected grass seeds scattering or returning to the storage box 2, ensuring a stable and efficient grass seed collection process and preventing grass seed loss.
[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the top of the storage box 2 is also equipped with a convenient gripping handle 701. The gripping handle 701 provides a gripping point for the user. Holding the gripping handle 701, the entire harvesting device can be moved and steered to approach the grass seed growth point in different terrain environments. During harvesting, the gripping handle 701 facilitates the application of force to control the working direction and force of the harvesting component 3. When carrying the device, the gripping handle 701 provides a point of leverage, avoiding direct contact with other parts of the device and preventing damage, thus facilitating the use, carrying, and transfer of the device.
[0033] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
