Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of apple planting pollination rod technology, specifically to an apple planting pollination rod. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of apple cultivation, in order to ensure the fruit yield of apple trees, pollen-collecting poles are used to assist in pollination of apple trees during the flowering period.

[0003] The existing apple planting pollination pole mainly consists of a telescopic pole and a pollination ball installed at one end of the pole. When pollinating apple trees, the pollination ball is first inserted into an external pollen storage container so that the surface of the pollination ball is covered with pollen. Then, the pollen-covered pollination ball is brought into contact with the apple tree flowers to achieve auxiliary pollination of the apple trees.

[0004] While existing pollination poles for apple trees can assist in pollination, the frequent manual collection of pollen during the pollination process is cumbersome. This not only increases the labor intensity of pollination but also reduces the efficiency of assisted pollination. Utility Model Content

[0005] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an apple planting pollination rod that can automatically replace pollination balls and automatically pick up pollen during the pollination process, in light of the current state of the technology.

[0008] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: This utility model proposes an apple planting pollination rod, including a sleeve rod, a telescopic rod installed inside the sleeve rod, a connecting sleeve installed at the top of the telescopic rod, a pollen-adding mechanism installed inside the connecting sleeve, the pollen-adding mechanism including an electric push rod and an open-top pollen container, a U-shaped connecting frame welded to the top of the connecting sleeve, the bottom end of the connecting frame facing the pollen container being a hollow structure, a flipping mechanism installed on the connecting frame, the flipping mechanism including a motor and a T-shaped shaft, and a pollination ball installed at each of the two opposite ends of the T-shaped shaft.

[0009] Furthermore, a limit bolt is also installed on the upper outer part of the sleeve rod, the limit bolt passing through the side wall of the sleeve rod and threadedly connected to the sleeve rod.

[0010] Furthermore, an operation panel is installed on the lower part of one side wall of the sleeve, and a storage battery is also installed at the bottom inner end of the sleeve.

[0011] Furthermore, the telescopic rod is bolted to the connecting sleeve, which is a cylindrical tube with an open top.

[0012] Furthermore, the electric actuator fixing part is bolted to the bottom end of the connecting sleeve, and the electric actuator telescopic part is bolted to the pollen tank.

[0013] Furthermore, the motor is bolted to the connecting frame, and the T-shaft is connected to the motor coupling.

[0014] Furthermore, the pollination ball has a fluffy surface, the pollination ball is inserted into the T-shaped shaft, there are two pollination balls, and the two pollination balls are arranged 180° opposite each other.

[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:

[0017] This invention, through the coordinated design of a connecting sleeve, connecting frame, pollen-adding mechanism, flipping mechanism, and pollinator ball, allows the apple planting pollination rod to operate automatically. When the pollen on one pollinator ball is used up, the pollen container is retracted into the connecting sleeve by the electric push rod in the pollen-adding mechanism. Simultaneously, the pollen ball is flipped 180° by the motor and T-shaped shaft in the flipping mechanism. At this point, the pollen-covered ball is located on the upper side of the connecting frame, while the used pollen ball is located on the upper side of the pollen container. Then, by simply moving the pollen container upwards under the action of the electric push rod to contact the used pollen ball, the pollen ball on the upper side of the connecting frame can be used to pollinate the apple blossoms. The used pollen ball picks up the pollen during contact with the pollen in the pollen container. Because the replacement of the pollen ball and the picking up of pollen are both automatic under this pollination rod, the tedious manual operation of adhering pollen is eliminated, reducing labor intensity and improving the pollination efficiency of apple blossoms.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0024] like Figures 1-3 As shown, an apple pollination rod in this embodiment includes a sleeve rod 2, a telescopic rod 1 installed inside the sleeve rod 2, a connecting sleeve 6 installed at the top of the telescopic rod 1, and a pollination mechanism 5 installed inside the connecting sleeve 6. The pollination mechanism 5 includes an electric push rod 502 and an open-top pollen container 501. A U-shaped connecting frame 8 is welded to the top of the connecting sleeve 6. The bottom of the connecting frame 8, facing the pollen container 501, is hollow. A flipping mechanism 9 is installed on the connecting frame 8. The flipping mechanism 9 includes a motor 902 and a T-shaped shaft 901. A pollination ball 10 is installed at each of the two opposite ends of the T-shaped shaft 901. When the pollen on one pollination ball 10 is used up, the pollination mechanism can be used to add more pollen. Under the action of the electric push rod 502 in 5, the pollen container 501 is retracted into the connecting sleeve 6. At the same time, under the action of the motor 902 and the T-shaped shaft 901 in the flipping mechanism 9, the pollen ball 10 after use is flipped 180°. At this time, the pollen ball 10 covered with pollen is located on the upper side of the connecting frame 8, and the pollen ball 10 after use is located on the upper side of the pollen container 501. Then, under the action of the electric push rod 502, the pollen container 501 is moved up to contact the pollen ball 10 after use. The pollen ball 10 after use can be adjusted on the upper side of the connecting frame 8 to pollinate the apple tree flowers. The pollen ball 10 after use picks up the pollen in the pollen container 501 during the contact process.

[0025] like Figures 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, a limit bolt 4 is also installed on the upper outer part of the sleeve rod 2. The limit bolt 4 passes through the side wall of the sleeve rod 2 and is threadedly connected to the sleeve rod 2. When the telescopic rod 1 extends or retracts by a specified length from the inside of the sleeve rod 2, the limit bolt 4 is tightened, which can realize the reliable limiting of the telescopic rod 1 after it is extended. An operation panel 3 is installed on the lower part of one side wall of the sleeve rod 2, and a storage battery 7 is also installed at the bottom inside the sleeve rod 2. The operation panel 3 is mainly used to control the coordinated operation of the electric push rod 502 and the motor 902.

[0026] like Figures 1-3As shown, in this embodiment, the telescopic rod 1 is bolted to the connecting sleeve 6, which is a cylindrical tube with an open top. The connecting sleeve 6 provides a certain installation foundation for the pollen adding mechanism 5. The fixed part of the electric push rod 502 is bolted to the bottom inner end of the connecting sleeve 6, and the telescopic part of the electric push rod 502 is bolted to the pollen tank 501. The electric push rod 502 is mainly used to realize the convenient telescopic extension and retraction of the pollen tank 501 so as to add pollen to the corresponding pollination ball 10 as needed. The motor 902 is bolted to the connecting frame 8. The T-shaft 901 is connected to the motor 902 via a coupling. The motor 902 is mainly used to provide power for the rotation of the T-shaft 901 to ensure convenient rotation adjustment of the T-shaft 901. The pollination ball 10 has a fluffy surface and is inserted into the T-shaft 901. There are two pollination balls 10, and the two pollination balls 10 are set at 180° relative to each other. After the pollination ball 10 comes into contact with the apple tree flower, it can add pollen to the corresponding apple tree flower to achieve pollination of the apple tree flower.

[0027] The specific implementation process of this embodiment is as follows: When pollinating apple tree flowers, the extension length of the telescopic rod 1 from the sleeve rod 2 is first adjusted according to the height of the apple tree flowers. After the extension length of the telescopic rod 1 is adjusted, the limiting bolt 4 is tightened. Then, the worker only needs to hold the sleeve rod 2 and bring the pollination ball 10 into contact with the apple tree flowers to complete the pollination. When the pollen on a pollination ball 10 is used up, the pollen can 501 can be retracted into the connecting sleeve 6 by the electric push rod 502 in the pollen adding mechanism 5. At the same time, the pollination ball 10 is rotated 180° after use by the motor 902 and the T-shaped shaft 901 in the flipping mechanism 9. The pollination ball 10, full of pollen, is located on the upper side of the connecting frame 8, while the used pollination ball 10 is located on the upper side of the pollen container 501. Then, under the action of the electric push rod 502, the pollen container 501 is moved upward to contact the used pollination ball 10. The pollination ball 10, adjusted on the upper side of the connecting frame 8, can be used to pollinate the apple tree flowers. The used pollination ball 10 picks up the pollen in the pollen container 501 during contact. Because the replacement of the pollination ball 10 and the process of picking up the pollen are both carried out automatically under the action of this pollination rod, the tedious operation of manually adhering pollen is eliminated, the labor intensity is reduced, and the pollination efficiency of the apple tree flowers is improved.
