Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vegetable harvester technology, and in particular to a small intelligent leafy vegetable harvester. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of modern agriculture, the scale and intensification of vegetable cultivation are constantly increasing, leading to a growing demand for mechanized and intelligent agricultural production. Leafy vegetables (such as spinach, lettuce, and rapeseed) are an important part of people's daily diet. They have short growth cycles and high planting densities. Traditional manual harvesting methods are not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also costly, making it difficult to meet the high-efficiency operational needs of large-scale cultivation. Therefore, developing specialized harvesting equipment for leafy vegetables has become an important direction in the field of agricultural mechanization.

[0003] Currently, some vegetable harvesting machinery exists on the market, but most of these machines are bulky and complex, suitable for large-scale, flat farmland operations, and difficult to adapt to small-scale planting areas, facility agriculture (such as greenhouses), or fields with uneven terrain. Furthermore, existing equipment has relatively limited functionality, typically only capable of cutting. Harvested vegetables often carry a large amount of soil and dust, requiring specialized cleaning and processing, increasing processing steps and water consumption. Simultaneously, during harvesting and transportation, the lack of effective preservation measures causes leafy vegetables to wilt easily due to water loss, affecting their commercial value and edible quality.

[0034] 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.

[0035] Example: Please refer to Figure 1-7 One embodiment of this utility model is a small intelligent leafy vegetable harvester, which includes a base 1, a cutting component mounting box 2, and a conveying and cleaning mechanism 3 for conveying vegetables and removing dust installed on the cutting component mounting box 2.

[0036] The conveying and cleaning mechanism 3 includes a first motor 31, which is fixedly connected to the cutting component mounting box 2. A drive shaft 32 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 31, and a roller 33 is fixedly connected to the end of the drive shaft 32 away from the first motor 31. The roller 33 is equipped with a conveyor belt 34 for conveying the cut vegetables. Two sets of rollers 33 are located at opposite ends of the conveyor belt 34. A third pulley 310 is fixedly connected through the drive shaft 32, and a second transmission belt 311 is meshed with the third pulley 310. The end of the second transmission belt 311 away from the third pulley 310 is meshed with... There is a fourth pulley 312, and a drive shaft 313 is fixedly connected through the fourth pulley 312. One end of the drive shaft 313 is rotatably connected to the cutting component mounting box 2. At the same time, a drive bevel gear 314 is fixedly connected to the end of the drive shaft 313 away from the cutting component mounting box 2. A drive bevel gear 315 is meshed with the drive bevel gear 314. A driven shaft 316 is fixedly connected through the drive bevel gear 315. At the same time, one end of the driven shaft 316 is rotatably connected to the cutting component mounting box 2. A fan blade 317 for blowing and cleaning dust inside the cutting component mounting box 2 is fixedly connected to the end of the driven shaft 316 away from the cutting component mounting box 2.

[0037] Further: The cutting component mounting box 2 is located directly behind the fan blade 317 and has an air inlet. At the same time, the cutting component mounting box 2 has a square opening, through which the second transmission belt 311 passes.

[0038] Working principle: First, the servo motor 6 is started. The output of the servo motor 6 drives the cutting disc 7 to rotate. The rotation of the cutting disc 7, in conjunction with the limiting blade 8, cuts the planted vegetables. Then, the operator only needs to push the device forward to make the cutting disc 7 and the limiting blade 8 cut the vegetables. At the same time, the first motor 31 is started. The output of the first motor 31 drives the drive shaft 32 to rotate. The rotation of the drive shaft 32 drives a set of roller shafts 33 to rotate. The rotation of the roller shaft 33 drives the upper connecting shaft 35 to rotate. The rotation of the upper connecting shaft 35 drives the first pulley 36 to rotate. The rotation of the first pulley 36 drives the first transmission belt 37 to rotate. The rotation of the first transmission belt 37 drives the second pulley 38 to rotate. The rotation of the second pulley 38 drives the lower connecting shaft 39 to rotate. The rotation of the lower connecting shaft 39 drives another set of roller shafts 33 to rotate. The rotation of the two sets of roller shafts 33 then drives the conveyor belt 34 to rotate and transport the cut vegetables. The vegetables are transported to the storage box 5 via the slide plate 10. Simultaneously, the drive shaft 32 rotates, which in turn drives the third pulley 310 to rotate. The third pulley 310 rotates, which in turn drives the second transmission belt 311 to rotate. The second transmission belt 311 rotates, which in turn drives the fourth pulley 312 to rotate. The fourth pulley 312 rotates, which in turn drives the drive shaft 313 to rotate. The drive shaft 313 rotates, which in turn drives the drive bevel gear 314 to rotate. The drive bevel gear 314 rotates, which in turn drives the drive bevel gear 315 to rotate. The drive bevel gear 315 rotates, which in turn drives the driven shaft 316 to rotate. The driven shaft 316 rotates, which in turn drives the fan blades 317 to rotate, generating airflow. This effectively blows away dust from inside the equipment and from the surface of the vegetables during the cutting process, improving the cleanliness of the vegetables. Next, the water pump 12 is started. The water pump 12 draws water from the water tank 11 into the water outlet pipe 13, which is then used by the spray nozzles 14 to periodically spray and humidify the cut vegetables in the storage box 5, maintaining their moisture and preventing them from wilting.
