Detailed Implementation

[0020] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] A device for removing the top vines of cowpeas, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the device includes a storage box 1, an air pump 2, a filter 3, a cover 8, a corrugated pipe 9, a handle 10, a button 11, a telescopic rod 12, a second electric push rod 13, a connecting cover 14, a motor 15, a cutter 16, a photoelectric sensor 17, and a compression assembly. Air pumps 2 are connected to the upper sides of both the left and right sides of the storage box 1. Shoulder straps are provided on the front sides of both the left and right sides of the storage box 1 for easy carrying. Filters 3 are connected to the upper sides of both the left and right sides of the storage box 1, and are located below the adjacent air pumps 2. A cover 8 is rotatably connected to the lower right side of the storage box 1. A corrugated pipe 9 is connected to the upper left side of the storage box 1, and a handle 10 is connected to the corrugated pipe 9. Two buttons 11 are connected to the upper side of the handle 10. A telescopic rod 12 is connected to the upper front side of the handle 10, and a second electric push rod 13 is connected to the lower front side of the handle 10. A connecting cover 14 is connected between the telescopic ends of the second electric push rod 13 and the telescopic rod 12. The connecting cover 14 is made of transparent material to facilitate observation of the top vine. A corrugated pipe 9 is connected to the connecting cover 14. A motor 15 is connected inside the connecting cover 14. One button 11 controls the second electric push rod 13, and another button 11 controls the motor 15. The second electric push rod 13 and the motor 15 are both electrically connected to the buttons 11. A cutter 16 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 15. A photoelectric sensor 17 is connected to the upper left inner side of the storage box 1. A compression assembly is provided on the storage box 1.

[0022] like Figure 4As shown, the compression assembly includes a first electric push rod 4, a push plate 5, a baffle 6, and elastic elements. The first electric push rod 4 is connected to the upper rear side of the storage box 1. The first electric push rod 4, the photoelectric sensor 17, and the processor are electrically connected through a control module. The push plate 5 is connected to the telescopic end of the first electric push rod 4. The baffle 6 is slidably connected to the inner front side of the storage box 1. Four elastic elements, namely springs 7, are connected between the baffle 6 and the storage box 1.

[0023] When using this utility model, the worker first carries the storage box 1 on his back with a shoulder strap, and then holds the handle 10 with one hand.
