Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mint harvesting technology, and in particular to a mint baling and harvesting machine with a height-adjustable structure. Background Technology
[0002] Peppermint, also known as Yindan grass, night-blooming jasmine, etc., is a perennial herb belonging to the genus Mentha in the Lamiaceae family. Peppermint is one of the commonly used Chinese medicinal herbs, with the effects of dispelling wind-heat, clearing the head and eyes, relieving sore throat, promoting rash eruption, and soothing the liver and regulating qi. It is used to treat symptoms such as wind-heat cold, early stage of wind-heat, headache, red eyes, sore throat, mouth sores, urticaria, measles, and chest and rib distension. Traditionally, it was harvested manually, but with the continuous development of technology, harvesting machines have been developed to improve harvesting efficiency.
[0003] Currently, most mint baling harvesters, due to their initial stage of operation, typically place the mint directly on flat piles after harvesting, making it difficult to automatically bale the mint. This causes the piled mint to be squeezed and intertwined, making it difficult to distribute it evenly during the later drying process. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a mint baling and harvesting machine with a height-adjustable structure to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a mint baling and harvesting machine with a height-adjustable structure, comprising: a support frame and a mounting frame, which are fixedly connected to each other; A connecting bracket is disposed between the support bracket and the mounting bracket, and two such brackets are provided. A baling assembly, mounted on the connecting frame, is used to bale and roll up the harvested mint. A rotating shaft is positioned between two connecting frames, and a bundling film is provided on the outer wall of the rotating shaft.
[0006] Preferably, the bundling assembly includes a rotating frame disposed between two connecting frames, and a tension roller is rotatably disposed on the inner wall of the rotating frame; One end of the rotating frame is provided with a first motor, and the output end of the first motor is fixedly connected to a take-up roller. The outer wall of the take-up roller is provided with an elastic sheet. Torsion springs are installed on both sides of the rotating frame and between the rotating frame and the connecting frame.
[0007] Preferably, a transmission component is rotatably arranged between the two connecting frames; The front end of the transmission component is equipped with a harvesting component.
[0008] Preferably, a dual drive motor is provided at the bottom of the support frame, and wheels are connected to both output ends of the dual drive motors. A battery is installed at the top of the support frame.
[0009] Preferably, a second mounting rod is provided at the top of the transmission component, and a cylinder is rotatably sleeved on the outer wall of the second mounting rod, and a first mounting rod is provided at the lower end of the cylinder, the first mounting rod being connected to the support frame.
[0010] Preferably, one end of the rotating frame is rotatably provided with a locking block, and the locking block is engaged with the winding roller.
[0011] Preferably, a controller is provided at one end of the mounting bracket.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by setting up a rotating frame, a rotating shaft, and a bundling film, the bundling film is threaded through the tension roller and connected to the winding roller under the action of the elastic sheet. The winding roller is driven to rotate by the first motor. When the harvested mint falls onto the bundling film below through the conveyor, it forms a thin layer. The rotation of the winding roller can be used to roll and bundle the mint leaves, making it easier to unfold and dry them later.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: with the cooperation of the first and second mounting rods, the cylinder can control the transmission component to rotate at a small angle, thereby facilitating the harvesting of mint according to its height.
