The left side of the transmission pipe 5 is movably connected to the right side of the negative pressure suction structure 3. A discharge component 6 is fixedly connected to the left side of the negative pressure suction structure 3.

[0024] In this utility model's technical solution, by setting up an electric trolley 1, a negative pressure suction structure 3, a handheld lever 4, a picking mechanism 2, a transmission pipe 5, and a discharge component 6, the entire equipment can be easily moved using the electric trolley 1, reducing the physical exertion of picking personnel carrying the equipment and lightening the burden for long-term operations. Workers can flexibly adjust the working distance and angle of the picking mechanism 2 using the handheld lever 4 to adapt to the picking needs of cotton plants of different heights and distributions, improving operational flexibility.
