Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of harvesters, specifically to an artemisia harvester. Background Technology
[0002] Artemisia argyi is a perennial herb or slightly shrubby plant with a strong aroma. It grows to 80-150 cm tall, with a slightly woody base and herbaceous upper part, bearing a few short branches. The leaves are thick and papery, covered with short, grayish-white hairs on the upper surface, and usually lack stipules or have very small stipules at the base. The upper leaves and bracts are pinnately lobed. The flower heads are elliptical, with tubular or goblet-shaped corollas, glandular-dotted on the outside. The anthers are narrowly linear, and the style is nearly equal to or slightly longer than the corolla. The achenes are oblong-ovoid or oblong. The whole plant is used medicinally, possessing properties of warming the meridians, dispelling dampness, dispersing cold, stopping bleeding, reducing inflammation, relieving asthma, stopping cough, calming the fetus, and anti-allergy effects. Dried and crushed Artemisia argyi leaves are used to make "Artemisia floss," which is then used to make moxa sticks.
[0003] Existing artemisia harvesting equipment consists of large-scale machinery. Using large-scale harvesting equipment in small areas will increase harvesting costs. Manual harvesting is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the harvesting effect is not good. When using small harvesters, these small handheld artemisia harvesters are mostly operated through their exposed harvesting discs, making it difficult to accurately delineate the harvesting area for accurate harvesting. This results in poor harvesting effect and is not conducive to subsequent artemisia collection operations. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an artemisia harvester that can solve the following problems:
[0005] The difficulty in accurately delineating harvesting areas for precise harvesting results in poor harvesting outcomes and hinders subsequent collection of mugwort.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention proposes the following technical solution:

The storage component includes a base and a storage seat connected vertically. The top of the storage seat is fixedly connected to a guide sleeve that movably engages with the guide rod. The harvesting mechanism includes a cutter disc, a connecting disc, and a drive motor connected sequentially from bottom to top. The drive motor is also fixedly connected to the guide rod. A baffle is fixedly connected to the inner side of the guide frame.
[0008] Furthermore, both the base and the storage seat are semi-circular in shape. The storage seat is hollow inside and open on the side facing the blade disc. The inner surface of the storage seat is covered with a sponge pad.
[0009] Furthermore, the guide sleeve is arranged in a cylindrical longitudinal protrusion and is fixedly connected to the top center of the storage base. One end of the guide rod is connected and fixed to the drive motor, while the other end is movably sleeved with the guide sleeve and fixedly connected to the adjustment frame.
[0010] Furthermore, the guide frame is trapezoidal in shape, with its top sloping downwards from one end of the cutter head to the other. The guide frame is forked at one end of the cutter head, and the baffle is located inside the forked end of the guide frame.
[0011] Furthermore, the surface of the guide frame has openings corresponding to the guide rod, and the baffle is arranged horizontally, including multiple sets of vertically arranged rubber baffle strips located above the cutter head.
[0012] Furthermore, two sets of arc-shaped plastic plates are provided for the guide plates, which are fixedly connected to both sides of one end of the guide frame and located on both sides of the guide sleeve. The tail end of the guide plate is inclined downward.
[0013] As can be seen from the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] 1. This utility model achieves the effect of facilitating the installation and fixation of the movable mechanism and supporting the overall device through the base, achieves the effect of storing and protecting the cutter head through the storage seat, and achieves the effect of driving the cutter head to extend and retract through the movable guide sleeve and guide rod, thereby facilitating the cutter head to enter the storage seat for storage.
[0015] 2.

[0022] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are merely illustrative of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] See Figure 1-3 As shown, an artemisia harvester includes a storage component 1 and a moving mechanism 2. The top of the storage component 1 is fixedly connected to a guide frame 3 and a guide plate 4. A harvesting mechanism 5 is provided inside the guide frame 3. A guide rod 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the harvesting mechanism 5. An adjusting frame 8 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the guide rod 6. A handle 9 is movably connected to the inner side of the adjusting frame 8. The storage component 1 includes a base 13 and a storage seat 14 connected vertically. A guide sleeve 7 that movably engages with the guide rod 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the storage seat 14. The harvesting mechanism 5 includes a cutter disc 10, a connecting disc 11, and a drive motor 12 connected sequentially from bottom to top. The drive motor 12 is also fixedly connected to the guide rod 6. A baffle 15 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the guide frame 3.
[0024] In this embodiment of the utility model, both the base 13 and the storage seat 14 are semi-circular. The interior of the storage seat 14 is hollow, and the side facing the cutter head 10 is open. A sponge pad is provided on the inner surface of the storage seat 14. The guide sleeve 7 is cylindrical and longitudinally protruding, and is fixedly connected to the top center of the storage seat 14. One end of the guide rod 6 is connected and fixed to the drive motor 12, and the other end is movably sleeved with the guide sleeve 7 and fixedly connected to the adjustment frame 8. The base 13 facilitates the installation and fixation of the moving mechanism 2 and supports the overall device. The storage seat 14 provides storage and protection for the cutter head 10. The movably sleeved guide sleeve 7 and guide rod 6 enable the cutter head 10 to extend and retract, thereby facilitating the cutter head 10 to enter the storage seat 14 for storage.
[0025] When storing and protecting the cutter head 10, the user holds the guide sleeve 7 and pulls the guide rod 6 along the guide sleeve 7 by the hand handle 9, thereby driving the cutter head 10 to be stored in the storage seat 14 for storage and protection.
[0026] The guide frame 3 is trapezoidal in shape, with its top sloping downwards from one end of the cutter head 10 to the other. The guide frame 3 is forked at one end of the cutter head 10, and the baffle 15 is located inside the forked end of the guide frame 3. The surface of the guide frame 3 has openings corresponding to the guide rod 6. The baffle 15 is horizontally oriented and includes multiple sets of vertically arranged rubber baffles located above the cutter head 10. The guide plate 4 is an arc-shaped plastic plate with two sets, fixedly connected to both sides of one end of the guide frame 3 and located on both sides of the guide sleeve 7. The tail end of the guide plate 4 is sloping downwards. Through the guide frame 3 and the baffle 15 located inside the forked end, the mugwort is guided and assisted in the cutting process. The baffle 15 can effectively prevent the cut mugwort from entering the inside of the cutter head 10. The guide plate 4 assists the guide frame 3 in guiding and concentrating the cut mugwort.
[0027] During the cutting process, the user pushes the entire device forward by holding the handle 9. As it moves, the forked end of the guide frame 3 separates a portion of the mugwort in the area from the mugwort in other areas, making it easier to harvest more accurately. The cutter head 10 contacts the mugwort and cuts it. The cut mugwort falls down and contacts the top of the inclined guide frame 3, and is collected along it and the guide plate 4 to the rear of the device. The baffle 15 can effectively prevent the fallen mugwort from entering the inside of the cutter head 10, ensuring operational safety and equipment operation.
