Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of stem splitting equipment, specifically a tuber splitting device for planting Chinese medicinal herbs. Background Technology

[0002] In the cultivation of Chinese medicinal herbs, tuber-type herbs (such as yam, pinellia, and potato) require tuber division as a crucial pretreatment step to ensure subsequent seedling survival rate and yield. The tubers of these herbs need to be divided into appropriately sized pieces with intact buds, based on varietal characteristics, bud distribution, and planting density requirements, to ensure rapid germination and uniform growth after planting.

[0003] Existing tuber splitting equipment often uses a fixed-speed splitting method. However, tubers vary in hardness (for example, within the same batch of yams, those with higher maturity are harder, while those with less moisture are more brittle). At a fixed speed, the blades do not apply sufficient impact force to hard tubers, easily causing them to "crack"; while the impact force on soft tubers is too great, easily leading to "compression and breakage." This results in broken tubers and uneven cut surfaces during splitting, which increases the risk of pathogen infection and affects the germination rate of subsequent plantings. Therefore, we propose a tuber splitting device for medicinal herb cultivation. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tuber splitting device for planting Chinese medicinal herbs, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0019] 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.

[0020] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a tuber splitting device for planting Chinese medicinal herbs, comprising: an operating table 1, a support frame 2 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the operating table 1, a driving component 3 provided on the outer surface of the support frame 2, a splitting component 4 movably connected to the outer surface of the driving component 3, and a collecting component 5 provided at the bottom of the splitting component 4. The splitting component 4 is manually cranked and reciprocated when splitting tubers by the driving component 3, and the collecting component 5 collects the split pieces simultaneously when the splitting component 4 is splitting.

[0021] In use, the tuber is divided by the drive component 3, manual turntable 33, linkage plate 34, push rod 36, and the moving block 41 and cutter head 45 of the dividing component 4. The manual turntable 33 is manually cranked to drive the cutter head 45 to reciprocate, thus dividing the tubers. No electricity is required for field use, and operators can flexibly control the dividing rhythm to prevent the tubers from breaking due to excessive speed. The guide plate 42 ensures that the cutter head 45 moves in a straight line, improving the uniformity of dividing, lowering the operating threshold, and adapting to the needs of small-scale planting.

[0022] A support plate 31 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the support frame 2. A rotating shaft 32 is movably connected to the center of the support plate 31. A manual turntable 33 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft 32. A linkage plate 34 is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating shaft 32 away from the manual turntable 33. A connecting shaft 35 is fixedly connected to the off-center part of the linkage plate 34. A push rod 36 is sleeved on the outer surface of the connecting shaft 35.

[0023] The dividing assembly 4 includes a movable block 41, which is movably connected to the end surface of the push rod 36 away from the connecting shaft 35. A guide plate 42 is movably connected to the side surface of the movable block 41, and a fixed seat 43 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the guide plate 42. The fixed seat 43 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the operating table 1. A fixed plate 46 is fixed to the upper surface of the movable block 41, and a protective plate 47 is movably connected to the outer surface of the fixed plate 46. A collecting push block 44 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable block 41, and a cutter head 45 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the movable block 41.

[0024] The collecting component 5 includes a support base 51, on the upper surface of which a cutter head protection plate 53 is fixedly connected. A collecting slot 52 is formed between the cutter head protection plate 53 and the support base 51. A fixing plate 46 and a protective plate 47 are elastically connected, and the protective plate 47 can be stored inside the fixing plate 46.

[0025] When in use, the tuber splitting equipment for Chinese medicinal herb cultivation uses the operating table 1 as the basic working platform. First, the tuber of Chinese medicinal herb to be split is placed on the operating table 1 at the position corresponding to the splitting component 4. The support frame 2 provides stable support for the drive component 3, ensuring the smoothness of subsequent splitting operations.

[0026] During the segmentation operation, the operator rotates the manual turntable 33 of the drive assembly 3, causing the rotating shaft 32 to rotate within the fixed support plate 31 on the outer surface of the support frame 2. The linkage plate 34 at the other end of the rotating shaft 32 rotates synchronously. Since the connecting shaft 35 is fixed at the off-center of the linkage plate 34, the rotation of the linkage plate 34 drives the push rod 36 to reciprocate through the connecting shaft 35. Its hand-cranked drive design does not rely on electricity, making it suitable for field planting scenarios without power. At the same time, the operator can flexibly adjust the segmentation rhythm by controlling the rotation speed of the manual turntable 33, avoiding the tubers from breaking due to excessive segmentation speed.

[0027] The end of the push rod 36 away from the connecting shaft 35 is connected to the movable block 41 of the dividing assembly 4. The reciprocating motion of the push rod 36 drives the movable block 41 to slide along the guide plate 42. The guide plate 42 is fixed on the operating table 1 by the fixing seat 43, which can limit the movement trajectory of the movable block 41 and ensure that it always moves in a straight line, avoiding the offset of the cutter head 45 and causing uneven division. The cutter head 45 on the outer surface of the movable block 41 moves with the movable block 41 to cut the placed tubers, achieving precise division of the tubers. The fixing plate 46 on the upper surface of the movable block 41 is elastically connected to the protective plate 47. The protective plate 47 can fit against the surface of the tuber during cutting, which can prevent the tuber from sliding during the division process and avoid the tuber from being squeezed and damaged by elastic buffer. The protective plate 47 can also be stored inside the fixing plate 46, which makes it convenient to adjust the protection range according to the size of the tuber and adapt to the division needs of tubers of different specifications.

[0028] While the tubers are being cut, the collection component 5 simultaneously performs the collection operation: the blade protection plate 53 on the support base 51 prevents the blade 45 from directly contacting the operating table 1 during cutting, extending the service life of the blade 45; the cut tuber fragments or small pieces fall into the preset collection container through the collection slot 52 between the blade protection plate 53 and the support base 51, eliminating the need for subsequent manual cleaning and reducing operational steps; the collection pusher 44 at the bottom of the movable block 41 moves with the movable block 41, pushing any small tubers remaining on the surface of the operating table 1 towards the collection slot 52, ensuring thorough collection and avoiding material waste. The entire process, driven by a hand crank and with synchronous collection, balances operational flexibility and collection convenience, making it particularly suitable for tuber cutting operations in small-scale Chinese medicinal herb cultivation scenarios, reducing the equipment's usage threshold and operating costs.

[0029] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
