Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanized management technology for tea gardens, and in particular to a self-propelled multi-functional management equipment for tea gardens. Background Technology

[0002] Tea garden management is a crucial aspect of tea production, with weeding and pruning being essential for ensuring healthy tea tree growth and improving tea yield and quality. However, in some tea gardens in my country, especially those in mountainous areas with complex terrain, weeding and pruning still rely heavily on manual labor. This method is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, making it difficult to meet the management needs of large-scale tea gardens, but also significantly increases the cost of tea production due to the continuous rise in labor costs.

[0003] Although some tea garden management machinery has appeared on the market, most of them suffer from limited functionality. For example, weeding machinery can only perform weeding, and pruning machinery can only perform pruning. In actual operation, different machines need to enter the tea garden multiple times, which not only increases the number of operations and time, reducing overall work efficiency, but also easily causes compaction and damage to the soil structure of the tea garden, affecting the growth environment of the tea tree roots.

[0004] Meanwhile, existing tea garden machinery also has shortcomings in terms of mobility, poor adaptability to the complex terrain of tea gardens, and poor stability when traveling on uneven ground, resulting in inconsistent work quality. In addition, existing equipment often lacks an effective recycling mechanism for waste generated during weeding and pruning. If this waste is not cleaned up and recycled in a timely manner, it will not only pollute the tea garden environment but also waste resources.

[0005] In addition, existing equipment generally lacks precise sensing and control capabilities, making it impossible to carry out targeted operations based on the real-time growth status and distribution of tea trees. This can easily lead to problems such as over- or under-pruning and incomplete weeding, which affects the level of precision in tea garden management.

[0006] Therefore, developing a self-propelled multi-functional tea garden management equipment that integrates multiple functions such as weeding, pruning, and waste recycling, and possesses good terrain adaptability, operational precision, and high efficiency, has become an urgent problem to be solved in the field of mechanized tea garden management.

[0029] 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.

[0030] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0031] Reference Figures 1-2 This utility model provides a self-propelled multi-functional management equipment for tea gardens, comprising:

[0032] The frame 1 has a mounting bracket 2 installed on its top.

[0033] The moving component includes a buffer frame symmetrically mounted at the bottom of the frame 1, and wheels 3 are respectively mounted on the buffer frame;

[0034] The first mounting frame 4 is installed below the front end of the vehicle frame 1, and the first mounting frame 4 is equipped with a weed cutter 5;

[0035] The second mounting frame 6 is installed on the top front end of the frame 1. A lifting frame is installed on the top of the second mounting frame 6, and a trimmer is mounted on the lifting frame.

[0036] The recycling mechanism includes a recycling bin and a conveying assembly. The recycling bin is fixed on the top of the frame 1, and the conveying assembly is installed on the frame 1. The end of the conveying assembly is arranged corresponding to the weeder 5, and the middle position of the conveying assembly is arranged corresponding to the trimmer.

[0037] The vision system is mounted on the front side of the second mounting frame 6 and is connected to the controller.

[0038] During operation, this invention first achieves autonomous movement within the tea garden via a mobile component: the buffer frame at the bottom of the chassis 1 cushions ground bumps, and the wheels 3 adapt to complex terrains such as mountains, ensuring the stability of the equipment. Simultaneously, the vision system on the front of the second mounting frame 6 collects real-time information on the distribution and growth status of tea trees and weeds, transmitting the data to the controller. As the chassis 1 moves forward, the weeder 5 on the first mounting frame 4 clears weeds from the tea garden surface. At this time, the end of the conveying component corresponds to the weeder 5, transporting the weed debris to the recycling bin. The lifting frame of the second mounting frame 6 dynamically adjusts the position of the pruning machine according to the height of the tea trees. The pruning machine performs precise pruning based on the outline of the tea trees identified by the vision system, and the middle position of the conveying component simultaneously transports the pruned branches and leaves to the recycling bin. Throughout the entire operation, the recycling mechanism operates continuously, achieving simultaneous recycling of weeding and pruning waste.

[0039] The scheme is further optimized. The buffer frame includes a truss 7. A buffer assembly is set between the truss 7 and the frame 1. A rotating seat is installed on the truss 7. The wheel 3 is rotatably connected to the rotating seat through a rotating shaft. A drive motor 8 is installed on the top of the frame 1. A sprocket is fixed between the output shaft of the drive motor 8 and the rotating shaft. The two sets of sprockets are connected by a chain 9. A tension wheel is installed on the frame 1. The tension wheel is limited and engaged with the chain 9.

[0040] The buffer frame is connected to the chassis 1 via the truss 7. The drive motor 8 provides power to the wheels 3. The torque of the drive motor 8 output shaft is transmitted to the wheel 3 axle via the sprocket and chain 9. The tension wheel and chain 9 are in a limiting engagement, which can automatically adjust the tension of the chain 9 to ensure stable and efficient power transmission and prevent chain 9 from slipping. When the equipment travels on uneven tea garden ground, the chassis 1 and the truss 7 will have relative displacement. The buffer assembly will play a buffering role, absorbing the energy of bumps through the extension and contraction of the spring 11, reducing the impact of vibration on the overall device, and ensuring driving stability.

[0041] To further optimize the design, two sets of buffer components are provided between the truss 7 and the frame 1. The buffer components include fixed seats that are fixed on the frame 1 and the truss 7 respectively. A telescopic rod 10 is provided between the two sets of fixed seats. The two ends of the telescopic rod 10 are rotatably connected to the fixed seats respectively. A spring 11 is sleeved on the telescopic rod 10. The two ends of the spring 11 abut against the two sets of fixed seats respectively. The telescopic rods 10 of the two sets of buffer components are arranged in a figure-eight shape.

[0042] Two sets of V-shaped buffer components form a bidirectional buffer structure. When the chassis 1 experiences bumps due to uneven ground, the truss 7 shifts relative to the chassis 1, causing a change in the distance between the two sets of fixed seats. The telescopic rod 10 extends or retracts accordingly, and the spring 11 sleeved on the telescopic rod 10 is compressed or stretched, generating a reverse elastic force to counteract the impact. The V-shaped telescopic rod 10 can simultaneously cope with vertical and lateral vibrations, improving the overall buffering effectiveness, ensuring that the wheels 3 always remain in contact with the ground, and enhancing the equipment's adaptability to complex terrain.

[0043] Further optimization of the scheme: The lifting frame includes a top plate 12 and a bottom plate 13. Two sets of symmetrically arranged scissor-type lifting rods 14 are arranged between the top plate 12 and the bottom plate 13. Linear slide rails 15 are fixed on the top plate 12 and the bottom plate 13 respectively. One end of the top of the scissor-type lifting rod 14 is rotatably connected to the bottom surface of the top plate 12, and the other end is rotatably connected to a slider, which is slidably connected to the linear slide rail 15. One end of the bottom of the scissor-type lifting rod 14 is rotatably connected to the top surface of the bottom plate 13, and the other end is slidably connected to the linear slide rail 15 on the bottom plate 13. A bearing seat is fixedly connected to the top surface of the bottom plate 13, and a threaded rod 16 is rotatably connected to the bearing seat. A connecting block is slidably connected to the top surface of the bottom plate 13. The threaded rod 16 passes through the connecting block and is threadedly connected to the connecting block. Connecting rods are symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the connecting block. The connecting rods are fixed to the two sets of sliders located below. A control motor is fixed to the top surface of the bottom plate 13. The control motor is fixed to one end of the threaded rod 16. The trimmer is mounted on the top surface of the top plate 12.

[0044] The lifting frame achieves height adjustment of the pruning machine through a scissor-type structure: the control motor drives the threaded rod 16 to rotate. Since the connecting block is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 16, the rotation of the threaded rod 16 causes the connecting block to move linearly along the base plate 13. The connecting block pulls the slider at the bottom of the scissor-type lifting linkage 14 via the connecting rod, causing it to slide on the linear slide rail 15, thus changing the included angle of the scissor linkage. As the angle of the scissor linkage increases or decreases, the top plate 12 rises or falls by cooperating with the top slider on the linear slide rail 15, thereby precisely adjusting the height of the pruning machine to adapt to the different growth height requirements of tea trees.

[0045] The scheme is further optimized. The conveying component includes a conveyor belt 17, which is mounted on the frame 1 via a mounting bracket 2. The conveyor belt 17 has a zigzag structure. The bottom end of the conveyor belt 17 is arranged corresponding to the weeder 5. Several sets of partitions 18 are installed on the conveyor belt 17, and the partitions 18 are vertically fixed on the conveyor belt 17.

[0046] The zigzag-shaped conveyor belt 17 adapts to the height difference between the weeder 5 and the recycling bin, ensuring a smooth waste transport path. When the weeder 5 produces weed debris or the trimmer produces branches and leaves, the waste falls to the bottom of the conveyor belt 17. During the operation of the conveyor belt 17, the vertically fixed baffles 18 can block the waste, preventing it from sliding down due to gravity during transport, ensuring that the waste is stably transported along the conveyor belt 17 to the recycling bin, improving the integrity and efficiency of waste recycling.

[0047] The design has been further optimized by installing a door on the back of the recycling bin, with a manual lock between the door and the bin.

[0048] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0049] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model. Various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present utility model by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present utility model should fall within the protection scope defined by the claims of the present utility model.
