Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pepper harvesting technology, and in particular to a handheld pepper harvesting robot. Background Technology

[0002] Sichuan pepper is an important economic crop in China, widely distributed throughout the country, and is an important source of medicinal herbs and food. The Sichuan pepper industry has become a new economic growth point for farmers in special regions. After the Sichuan pepper matures, it needs to be harvested. Manual harvesting requires moving among the trees to find the fruits one by one, but there are also auxiliary equipment such as electric shears to harvest, which are used to cut the mature Sichuan pepper branches.

[0003] Current technologies for harvesting Sichuan pepper have certain shortcomings. Although there are some simple tools such as extended shears or electric shears to assist in harvesting, they can easily damage the pepper trees due to inaccurate operation, leading to reduced pepper production the following year. Collecting Sichuan pepper is also difficult: Under traditional harvesting methods, collecting the harvested peppers is quite troublesome. Tools without built-in collection devices require manual collection, increasing labor intensity and time costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a handheld pepper harvesting robot, which has the advantages of efficient harvesting, reduced damage to mother trees, and high adaptability, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background technology.

[0005] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a handheld pepper-picking robot, comprising a cylindrical shell, a horizontal shell fixedly installed on the top of the cylindrical shell, the cylindrical shell and the horizontal shell being connected internally, a fixed plate fixedly installed on the top and bottom of the cylindrical shell, a telescopic shell sleeved on the outer ring of the end of the fixed plate, pin holes evenly arranged in a linear array on the surface of the telescopic shell, a pin inserted into one of the pin holes, a handle sleeved between the telescopic shells, a collection box fixedly connected to the bottom of one side of the horizontal shell, a battery fixedly installed on the inner bottom wall of the cylindrical shell, a driving device fixedly installed on the top of the battery, and a picking and cutting device installed between the inside of the cylindrical shell and the inside of the horizontal shell.

[0006] Through the above structural design, and by setting up the cooperation between the drive device and the picking and cutting device, it is possible to easily pick Sichuan peppercorns, avoid direct manual contact with the Sichuan peppercorn tree, and reduce the risk of being pricked. At the same time, due to the cooperation between the upper cutting saw, the lower cutting saw and the collection box, damage to the Sichuan peppercorn fruit is reduced, ensuring the integrity and quality of the Sichuan peppercorns after picking. In addition, due to the cooperation between the telescopic shell and the handle, the length of the sliding column and the telescopic shell can be extended or retracted by inserting and pulling the pin.

[0007] Preferably, the handle includes a handrail and a sliding column. The handle is C-shaped in general. The sliding column is slidably installed inside the telescopic shell. The surface of the sliding column has a through hole of the same size as the pin hole, and the shape and size are adapted to the end of the pin.

[0008] With the above-described structure, the handle is connected to the pin hole and pin through the through hole on the surface of the slide column. By pulling out the pin, the position of the slide column inside the telescopic shell can be adjusted, thus changing its length.

[0009] Preferably, the driving device includes a motor and an eccentric disk. The motor is fixedly mounted above the battery, and the output shaft of the motor is connected to the eccentric disk via a coupling. A column block is fixedly mounted at the eccentric position on the top of the eccentric disk.

[0010] With the above structural configuration, when the drive device is started, its output shaft drives the eccentric disk to rotate in a circular motion through the coupling. At the same time, due to the limitation of the column block position, it can drive the connecting plate to slide back and forth inside the cylindrical shell.

[0011] Preferably, the harvesting and cutting device includes a fixed frame and a support plate. The fixed frame is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the horizontal shell at one end, and the support plate is fixedly connected to the other end of the fixed frame. The support plate is fixedly connected to the top of the motor and located outside the motor output shaft. A seat plate is fixedly installed on the top of the fixed frame, and a cutting saw is provided at the end of the seat plate located outside the horizontal shell.

[0012] With the above structural design, the fixed frame and support plate are fixed in their basic positions, and the seat plate and the cutting saw are fixed in their fixed positions, making the cutting saw a stationary blade. Furthermore, due to the setting of the cutting saw's toothed blades, it can better cut the peppercorns.

[0013] Preferably, linear bearings are symmetrically fixedly installed on the top of the fixing frame, and a sliding cylinder is slidably sleeved inside the linear bearing. A connecting piece is fixedly connected to one end of the sliding cylinder. The connecting piece is fixedly sleeved on the outer ring of the end of the column block. The internal shape and size of the connecting piece are adapted to the external shape and size of the column block. The other end of the sliding cylinder is provided with an upper cutting saw, which is in contact with the lower cutting saw and located above the lower cutting saw.

[0014] With the above structural design, the fixed frame and support plate are fixed in their basic positions, and the seat plate and the cutting saw are fixed in their fixed positions, making the cutting saw a stationary blade. Furthermore, due to the setting of the cutting saw's toothed blades, it can better cut the peppercorns.

[0015] This utility model has the following advantages: 1. This handheld pepper-harvesting robot, through the setting of a drive device, motor, eccentric disc, sliding cylinder, connecting plate, and upper cutting saw, facilitates pepper harvesting. When the motor starts, its output shaft drives the eccentric disc to rotate through a coupling. When the eccentric disc rotates, it moves the connecting plate through a column block, causing the sliding cylinder to slide back and forth inside the linear bearing. At the same time as the sliding cylinder slides, the upper cutting saw slides synchronously on the top surface of the lower cutting saw. Then, by holding the handle, the robot moves closer to the branches and leaves of the pepper tree. When the upper and lower cutting saws come into contact with the pepper branches, the reciprocating sliding of the upper cutting saw harvests the pepper branches and leaves. The pepper branches and leaves cut by the upper and lower cutting saws then fall into the collection box for collection, thus facilitating pepper harvesting.

[0016] 2. This handheld pepper-harvesting robot, through the design of a telescopic shell, pin hole, pin column, and sliding column, allows for adjustment to different lengths while being easy to use. By pulling out the pin column, the through hole on the surface of the sliding column is released from the pin column's restriction, allowing the handle to be pulled out from inside the telescopic shell. After adjusting to the appropriate length, the pin column is then inserted back into the pin hole and through hole, re-restricting the handle's position. This allows for harvesting peppers from a distance, achieving the effect of length adjustment. Attached Figure Description

[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 Figures 1-2 A handheld pepper-harvesting robot includes a cylindrical shell 1, a horizontal shell 11 fixedly installed on the top of the cylindrical shell 1, and the interior of the cylindrical shell 1 and the horizontal shell 11 are connected. A fixed plate 12 is fixedly installed on both the top and bottom of the cylindrical shell 1. A telescopic shell 13 is sleeved on the outer ring of the end of the fixed plate 12. A handle 2 is sleeved inside the telescopic shell 13. A collection box 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of one side of the horizontal shell 11. A battery 4 is fixedly installed on the bottom wall inside the cylindrical shell 1. A drive device 5 is fixedly installed on the top of the battery 4. A harvesting and cutting device 6 is installed between the interior of the cylindrical shell 1 and the interior of the horizontal shell 11.

[0021] In practical applications, this device, through the cooperation between the drive device 5 and the harvesting and cutting device 6, enables easy harvesting of Sichuan peppercorns, avoids direct human contact with the peppercorn trees, and reduces the risk of being pricked. At the same time, the cooperation between the upper cutting saw 68, the lower cutting saw 64, and the collection box 3 reduces damage to the peppercorn fruits, ensuring the integrity and quality of the harvested peppercorns. By starting the motor 51, the output shaft of the motor 51 drives the eccentric disc 52 and the connecting plate 67 to move synchronously through the coupling, so that the upper cutting saw 68 slides back and forth and cooperates with the lower cutting saw 64 to harvest the peppercorn fruits.

[0022] Meanwhile, due to the cooperative arrangement between the telescopic shell 13 and the handle 2, the length of the sliding column 22 and the telescopic shell 13 can be extended or retracted by inserting or removing the pin 15, so as to adjust the height and length of the slide column 22 and the telescopic shell 13, making it easier for users to pick the fruit.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-3 The telescopic shell 13 has pin holes 14 evenly arranged in a linear array on its surface, and a pin 15 is inserted into one of the pin holes 14.

[0024] The position of the telescopic shell 13 and the slide 22 is restricted by the cooperation between the pin 15, the pin hole 14 and the slide 22. The length of the slide 22 and the telescopic shell 13 can be extended or retracted by inserting or removing the pin 15.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-3 The handle 2 includes a handrail 21 and a sliding column 22. The handle 2 is C-shaped. The sliding column 22 is slidably installed inside the telescopic shell 13. The surface of the sliding column 22 has a through hole of the same size as the pin hole 14, and the shape and size are adapted to the end of the pin 15.

[0026] The handle 2 is connected to the pin hole 14 and the pin 15 through the through hole on the surface of the slide 22. By pulling out the pin 15, the position of the slide 22 inside the telescopic shell 13 can be adjusted, so that its length changes.

[0027] Please see Figures 1-4 The drive device 5 includes a motor 51 and an eccentric disk 52. The motor 51 is fixedly installed above the battery 4. The output shaft of the motor 51 is connected to the eccentric disk 52 through a coupling. A column block 53 is fixedly installed at the eccentric position on the top of the eccentric disk 52.

[0028] When the drive device 5 is started, its output shaft drives the eccentric disk 52 to rotate in a circular motion through the coupling. At the same time, due to the limitation of the position of the column block 53, it can drive the connecting piece 67 to slide back and forth inside the cylinder shell 1, thereby driving the upper cutting saw 68 and the lower cutting saw 64 to harvest the pepper fruits.

[0029] Please see Figures 1-5 The harvesting and cutting device 6 includes a fixed frame 61 and a support plate 62. The fixed frame 61 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the horizontal shell 11 at one end, and the support plate 62 is fixedly connected to the other end of the fixed frame 61. The support plate 62 is fixedly connected to the top of the motor 51 and is located outside the output shaft of the motor 51. A seat plate 63 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixed frame 61, and a cutting saw 64 is provided at the end of the seat plate 63 outside the horizontal shell 11.

[0030] The fixed frame 61 and the support plate 62 fix the basic position, and the seat plate 63 and the cutting saw 64 are fixed in position, so that the cutting saw 64 becomes a stationary blade. Due to the toothed edge of the cutting saw 64, it can better cut the pepper fruits.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-5 A linear bearing 65 is symmetrically fixedly installed on the top of the fixed frame 61. A slide cylinder 66 is slidably sleeved inside the linear bearing 65. A connecting piece 67 is fixedly connected to one end of the slide cylinder 66. The connecting piece 67 is fixedly sleeved on the outer ring of the end of the column block 53. The internal shape and size of the connecting piece 67 are adapted to the external shape and size of the column block 53, and a working space is left. The other end of the slide cylinder 66 is provided with an upper cutting saw 68, which is in contact with the lower cutting saw 64 and located above the lower cutting saw 64.

[0032] The connecting piece 67 is driven by the column block 53 to slide back and forth, thereby causing the slide cylinder 66 to drive the upper cutting saw 68 to slide back and forth synchronously. When the upper cutting saw 68 slides, the pepper fruit located between the teeth of the upper cutting saw 68 and the lower cutting saw 64 is cut off and then falls into the collection box 3 for collection.

[0033] Both the upper cutting saw 68 and the lower cutting saw 64 are long, comb-shaped, with specific ranges for tooth height, tooth spacing, and tooth width, which can better adapt to the harvesting of pepper fruits.

[0034] Working principle: In actual use, the motor 51 is started first. The motor 51 is powered by the battery 4. After the motor 51 starts, its output shaft drives the eccentric disk 52 to rotate through the coupling. When the eccentric disk 52 rotates, it moves the connecting plate 67 through the column block 53, so that the slide cylinder 66 slides back and forth inside the linear bearing 65. While the slide cylinder 66 slides, it drives the upper cutting saw 68 to slide synchronously on the top surface of the lower cutting saw 64. Then, by holding the handle 21, you can approach the branches and leaves of the pepper tree. When the upper cutting saw 68 and the lower cutting saw 64 come into contact with the pepper branches, the pepper branches and leaves are picked due to the back and forth sliding of the upper cutting saw 68. The pepper branches and leaves cut by the upper cutting saw 68 and the lower cutting saw 64 then fall into the inside of the collection box 3 and are collected by the collection box 3. When harvesting pepper branches, leaves, and fruits, the conditions vary and the locations of the fruits differ. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the distance between the handle 21 and the cylinder shell 1 to allow for harvesting peppers at different distances. By pulling out the pin 15, the through hole on the surface of the sliding pin 22 is released from the restriction of the pin 15, and the handle 2 can be pulled out from inside the telescopic shell 13. After adjusting to the appropriate length, the pin 15 is inserted back into the pin hole 14 and the through hole, thus re-restricting the position of the handle 2. At this time, peppers at a distance can be harvested. Meanwhile, due to the funnel-shaped design of the collection box 3, peppers can be prevented from falling to a great extent, making it convenient for users to collect peppers.
