Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pollen collection technology, and in particular to a pollen collector. Background Technology
[0002] Pollen is a tiny mass of spores in seed plants. Mature pollen grains are small gametophytes that produce male gametes. Pollen is produced by the anthers in the stamens and reaches the pistil through various methods, pollinating the ovules. Pollen collection requires a pollen collector, which disperses the pollen by vibrating or shaking the flower or stamens, and then collects it using a collection device.
[0003] Existing technologies have some shortcomings in pollen collection. For example, when using a suction collector, the nozzle is aimed at the flower, and a fan or air pump is used to generate suction to draw the pollen into the collection bag. However, this method cannot collect all the pollen, and the surface of the flower is damaged after being absorbed by suction, so it has no other use value. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a pollen collector that features integrated pollen collection and complete absorption, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background section.
[0005] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a pollen collector, including a collector, a bent pipe fixedly connected to one end of the collector, a flower cover fixedly connected to one end of the bent pipe, the flower cover being conical in shape, a disc fixedly installed below the end of the collector, a flower jar movably installed in the middle of the collector, a pollen collection jar movably installed on one side of the flower jar in the middle of the collector, a fan fixedly installed at the other end of the collector, a fan cover fixedly connected between the outer ring of the fan and the end of the collector, a fan blade being driven to the end of the output shaft of the fan via a coupling, and the collector being connected to the flower cover at one end of the fan.
[0006] With the above structural design, the combination of the disc and the fan allows the cutter head to cut the flower, which is then drawn into the collector by the fan, achieving complete pollen collection. The design of the vertical and inclined columns disperses the connection between the flower and the pollen during the movement.
[0007] Preferably, the disc includes a motor and a cutter head. The motor is fixedly installed inside the disc, and a cutter groove is formed between the inside of the disc and the flower cover. The output shaft of the motor is connected to the cutter head through a coupling, and the cutter head is located inside the cutter groove.
[0008] With the above structural setup, the motor and its output shaft drive the cutter head to rotate inside the cutter groove via a coupling. The cutter head cuts off the flower roots, achieving the effect of completely collecting pollen.
[0009] Preferably, the inside of the collector is provided with vertical columns arranged in a linear array on both sides, and the vertical columns are arranged alternately. The inside of the collector is provided with diagonal columns symmetrically installed on both sides in the direction symmetrical to the vertical columns, and the diagonal columns are arranged alternately. Two diagonal columns in the horizontal symmetrical direction and two vertical columns in the vertical symmetrical direction form a group.
[0010] With the above structural design, when the flower enters the collector, it is attracted by the fan and collides with the vertical and inclined columns in sequence, which makes the pollen inside better separated and allows for maximum pollen collection.
[0011] Preferably, the interior of the flower jar is connected to the interior of the collector, and the interior of the flower jar is provided with a pollen collecting plate, which divides the flower jar into upper and lower chambers, namely the stamen chamber and the pollen chamber.
[0012] With the above structural design, the upper chamber is used to store the flowers, and the lower chamber is used to store the pollen that falls off when the flowers enter the flower container.
[0013] Preferably, the collector has a bend inside, and the pollen collection tank is connected to the inside of the collector through the bend. The inside of the collector is provided with a sieve plate on one side of the port of the flower tank, and the aperture of the sieve plate is larger than the diameter of the pollen particles.
[0014] With the above-mentioned structure, pollen passes through the sieving plate and enters the curved channel. However, due to the large size of the flowers, they cannot pass through the sieving plate and subsequently fall into the flower container.
[0015] Preferably, the bend has a bending plate in the middle, and the inner wall of the bend has uniformly opened air holes in a circular shape, the diameter of the air holes being smaller than the diameter of the pollen grains.
[0016] With the above-described structure, pollen entering the bend will follow the surface of the bend plate into the pollen collection tank. A small amount of lighter pollen may be located at the air vents, but when absorbing the gaps between flowers, the fan stops, so the pollen at the air vents is no longer attracted by suction and falls into the pollen collection tank.
[0017] This utility model has the following advantages:
[0018] 1. This pollen collector separates pollen by using a structure consisting of discs, vertical columns, and inclined columns. A flower cover is placed around the flower, and then the motor is started. The motor output shaft drives the cutter head to rotate via a coupling. The cutter head rotates half a turn and then a full turn, cutting off the flower's base. Next, a fan is started, and the fan blades generate suction, drawing the flower into the collector. As the flower moves towards the sieve plate at the end of the collector, the pollen inside is evenly dispersed by the combined movement of the vertical and inclined columns, reducing the adhesion between the pollen and the flower. Then, the flower and pollen reach the sieve plate. The pollen passes through the sieve plate and enters the curved channel, while the flower is blocked on one side of the sieve plate, effectively separating the pollen from the flower.
[0019] 2. This pollen collector achieves centralized collection through a structure consisting of a flower jar, a sieve plate, a curved plate, and a collection jar. After pollen enters the curved channel, it flows along the surface of the curved plate into the collection jar. A small amount of lighter pollen blocks one side of the air vent. During the gap between the device moving to the next flower, the fan stops working. The pollen on the side of the air vent is attracted by the suction force of the sliding plate on the side of the sieve plate, and thus the pollen falls smoothly into the collection jar for unified collection. The flower itself falls straight into the flower jar. After the flower falls onto the surface of the collection plate, the remaining pollen inside falls into the pollen cavity through the collection plate. The flower is located in the stamen cavity, achieving the effect of centralized collection. Attached Figure Description

[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 1-2 A pollen collector includes a collector 1, with a bent pipe 11 fixedly connected to one end of the collector 1, and a flower cover 12 fixedly connected to the other end of the bent pipe 11. The flower cover 12 is conical in shape and has a diameter that is narrower at the top and wider at the bottom to accommodate flowers. A disc 2 is fixedly installed below the end of the collector 1. A flower container 3 is movably installed in the middle of the collector 1. A pollen collection container 4 is movably installed on one side of the flower container 3 in the middle of the collector 1. A fan 5 is fixedly installed at the other end of the collector 1. A fan cover 51 is fixedly connected between the outer ring of the fan 5 and the end of the collector 1. A fan blade 52 is driven to the end of the output shaft of the fan 5 through a coupling. The collector 1 is connected to the flower cover 12 at one end of the fan 5.
[0027] In practical applications, this device, through the cooperation of the disc 2 and the fan 5, allows the cutter head 22 to cut off the flowers. The pollen is then drawn into the collector 1 by the fan 5, achieving complete pollen collection. Through the design of the vertical column 13 and the inclined column 14, the connection between the flower and the pollen is broken during the movement, allowing the pollen to pass through the sieve plate 16 and enter the curved channel 15. The flower is blocked by the sieve plate 16 and falls into the flower tank 3. The flower tank 3 is equipped with a pollen collection plate 31, which allows the remaining pollen to enter the pollen cavity and the flower to be located in the pistil cavity, achieving separate collection. After passing through the sieve plate 16, the pollen flows along the surface of the curved plate 17 into the pollen collection tank 4, achieving individual collection of pollen.
[0028] Please see Figures 1-3 The disc 2 includes a motor 21 and a cutter head 22. The motor 21 is fixedly installed inside the disc 2. A cutter groove is opened between the inside of the disc 2 and the flower cover 12. The output shaft of the motor 21 is connected to the cutter head 22 through a coupling. The cutter head 22 is located inside the cutter groove.
[0029] After placing the flower inside the flower cover 12, start the motor 21. The output shaft of the motor 21 drives the cutter head 22 to rotate inside the cutter groove through the coupling. The cutter head 22 cuts off the root of the flower, achieving the effect of completely collecting pollen.
[0030] Please see Figures 1-3The collector 1 has vertical columns 13 arranged in a linear array on both sides inside, with the vertical columns 13 arranged alternately. The collector 1 also has diagonal columns 14 installed symmetrically on both sides inside, in the direction symmetrical to the vertical columns 13, with the diagonal columns 14 arranged alternately. Two diagonal columns 14 in the horizontal direction and the vertical columns 13 in the vertical direction form a group. When the flower enters the collector 1, it is attracted by the fan 5 and collides with the vertical columns 13 and diagonal columns 14 in turn, which makes the pollen inside better separated and allows the collector to collect pollen to the maximum extent.
[0031] Please see Figures 1-4 The interior of flower jar 3 is connected to the interior of collector 1. Flower jar 3 is equipped with a pollen collection plate 31, which divides flower jar 3 into upper and lower chambers. The upper chamber is used to store flowers, and the lower chamber is used to store pollen that falls off when flowers enter flower jar 3. The upper and lower chambers inside flower jar 3 are the stamen chamber and the pollen chamber, respectively.
[0032] Please see Figures 1-4 The collector 1 has a curved channel 15 inside, and the pollen collection tank 4 is connected to the inside of the collector 1 through the curved channel 15. Inside the collector 1, on one side of the flower tank 3, there is a sieving plate 16. The aperture of the sieving plate 16 is larger than the diameter of the pollen particles. The sieving plate 16 is used to prevent flowers from entering the inside of the curved channel 15, while the pollen can pass through the sieving plate 16 and enter the curved channel 15, thus entering the inside of the pollen collection tank 4 for storage. There is a curved plate 17 in the middle of the curved channel 15. The pollen passing through the sieving plate 16 is drawn into the inside of the pollen collection tank 4 by the suction of the fan 5, achieving the effect of collecting pollen separately. The inner wall of the curved channel 15 has evenly spaced air holes 18 in a circular shape. The aperture of the air holes 18 is smaller than the diameter of the pollen particles, so the pollen cannot pass through the air holes 18, thus allowing flowers to enter the collector 1. Inside, the pollen is first loosened by the movement of the vertical column 13 and the inclined column 14, causing the pollen to no longer be tightly connected to the stamen. When it reaches the sieve plate 16, the pollen passes through the sieve plate 16 and enters the inside of the bend 15. However, due to the large size of the flower, it cannot pass through the sieve plate 16 and then falls into the inside of the flower tank 3. There may still be residual pollen inside the flower. When it falls into the inside of the flower tank 3, the residual pollen can fall into the pollen cavity through the pollen collection plate 31, achieving separation and collection. The pollen that enters the inside of the bend 15 then follows the surface of the bend plate 17 into the inside of the pollen collection tank 4. There may be a small amount of lighter pollen at the air hole 18, but when absorbing the gaps between the flowers, the fan 5 is off for a period of time, so the pollen at the air hole 18 is no longer attracted by suction and falls into the inside of the pollen collection tank 4.
[0033] Working principle: In use, the flower cover 12 is placed around the outer ring of the flower. Then, the motor 21 is started. The output shaft of the motor 21 drives the cutter head 22 to rotate through the coupling. The cutter head 22 rotates half a circle and then one circle to cut the flower root. Then, the fan 5 is started. The fan 5 generates suction through the rotation of the fan blades 52, which sucks the flower into the collector 1. As the flower moves towards the sieving plate 16 at the end of the collector 1, it is repeatedly agitated by the vertical column 13 and the inclined column 14, which evenly disperses the pollen inside the flower, reducing the adhesion between the pollen and the flower. Then, the flower and pollen reach the sieving plate 16, and the pollen enters the curved channel 15 through the sieving plate 16. Inside, the flower is blocked on one side of the sieve plate 16. After the pollen enters the inside of the bend 15, it flows along the surface of the bend plate 17 into the inside of the pollen collection tank 4. A small amount of lighter pollen blocks one side of the air hole 18. During the gap between the device moving to the next flower, the fan 5 stops working. The pollen on the side of the air hole 18 is not attracted by the sliding force on the side of the sieve plate 16, so the pollen falls smoothly into the inside of the pollen collection tank 4 and is collected uniformly by the pollen collection tank 4. The flower falls straight into the inside of the flower tank 3. After the flower falls onto the surface of the pollen collection plate 31, the remaining pollen inside it falls into the pollen cavity through the pollen collection plate 31. The flower is located in the stamen cavity, realizing separation and collection.
