Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] Chrysanthemums have a wide range of uses. Certain varieties, such as Hangzhou white chrysanthemum and Chuzhou chrysanthemum, can be used in medicine after drying to dispel wind and clear heat, or made into chrysanthemum tea for drinking, thus possessing practical value. However, to realize these uses, the prerequisite is to harvest them efficiently and without damage.

[0003] While traditional manual harvesting can avoid damaging the petals, it becomes time-consuming, labor-intensive, and costly when dealing with large-scale plantations. It may even cause the optimal harvesting period to be missed due to the slow harvesting speed. Although most harvesting devices attempt to solve the efficiency problem, they rely on pulling and tugging to detach the flowers from the plant, which can easily damage the petals, compromise quality, and may also pull on the plant, leading to subsequent yield reduction. More importantly, the fixed spacing design of existing harvesting knives cannot be adapted to chrysanthemums with stems of different thicknesses, further limiting the versatility and applicability of harvesting. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a chrysanthemum harvesting device that can efficiently harvest chrysanthemums with stems of different thicknesses while protecting the integrity of the petals.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a chrysanthemum harvesting device, comprising a body, wherein a combing mechanism, a holding mechanism, and a flower collecting mechanism are provided on the body, the holding mechanism is used to hold the body, the combing mechanism includes a fixed blade and an adjustable blade, the fixed blade and the adjustable blade are arranged adjacent to each other vertically and alternately, the holding mechanism controls the movement of the adjustable blade so that it cooperates with the fixed blade to cut the stem of the chrysanthemum, and the flower collecting mechanism is used to collect the chrysanthemum.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the machine body is first held by the gripping mechanism and pushed forward. The combing mechanism at the front of the machine body first contacts the chrysanthemum stems and combs the stems of different thicknesses between the fixed blade and the adjustable blade. Then, the gripping mechanism drives the adjustable blade to move so that it forms a cutting pair with the fixed blade to complete the cutting operation of the chrysanthemum stems. The cut chrysanthemums naturally fall into the flower collecting mechanism, which collects them in a concentrated manner, thus achieving efficient harvesting of chrysanthemums with stems of different thicknesses.

[0007] Moreover, when using a knife to cut, the shearing force of the blade can break the stem quickly and neatly. Compared to the tearing effect of pulling and tugging, it will not exert additional force on the surrounding petals, thus protecting the integrity of the petals and reducing damage to the plant.

[0008] A further feature of this invention is that the adjustable tool includes a linkage rod, a plurality of blades, and an elastic component. The linkage rod is disposed on one side of the machine body, the plurality of blades are fixedly disposed on the side of the linkage rod away from the machine body, the elastic component is disposed between the fixed tool and the blades, and the gripping mechanism controls the movement of the linkage rod.

[0009] A further feature of this invention is that the fixed tool includes a support rod and a plurality of blades. The support rod is located above the linkage rod and is fixedly mounted on the machine body. The plurality of blades are fixedly mounted on the side of the support rod near the blade. The blades are staggered and the blades are provided with an elastic component between the blades.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the holding mechanism controls the movement of the linkage rod, which drives the blade one, which is fixedly connected to the linkage rod, to move synchronously, so that it interacts with the blade two fixed on the support rod to form a cutting action; at the same time, an elastic component is provided between the blade one and the blade two, which can help adjust the mating gap between the two blades or buffer the cutting impact force to ensure the stability of the cutting process.

[0011] A further feature of this invention is that the elastic component includes a spring and a limiting block, the limiting block is slidably disposed on the support rod, the first blade is fixedly disposed on the limiting block, the spring is slidably disposed on the support rod, and the two ends of the spring are respectively fixedly connected to the second blade and the limiting block.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, when the linkage rod moves, it drives the limiting block on it and the blade one fixed by the limiting block to move synchronously, and interacts with the blade two on the support rod to complete the cutting; while the spring between the blades can adaptively adjust the matching gap between the two blades through elastic deformation, thereby adapting to chrysanthemum stems of different thicknesses and ensuring reliable cutting.

[0013] A further feature of this invention is that a limiting groove is fixedly provided at the bottom of the machine body, and the linkage rod is slidably disposed on the limiting groove.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the linkage rod is not stable enough when it is only connected to the support rod by the spring. However, by fixing a limiting groove at the bottom of the machine body, an additional limiting constraint can be formed on the linkage rod, guiding it to move smoothly along the preset trajectory, thereby significantly improving the stability of the linkage rod's movement.

[0015] A further feature of this invention is that the gripping mechanism includes a handle and an adjustment component, the handle being fixedly mounted on the body, and the adjustment component being slidably mounted on the body.

[0016] A further feature of this invention is that the adjustment assembly includes an adjustment grip, a sliding guide rod, and a transmission link. The adjustment grip is arranged parallel to the handle, the sliding guide rod is fixedly connected to the adjustment grip, and the linkage rod is fixedly connected to the sliding guide rod via the transmission link.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the handle and the adjusting lever are gripped tightly. The adjusting lever moves towards the handle, and the action is transmitted in sequence through the sliding guide rod and the transmission link, which drives the linkage rod to move synchronously.

[0018] A further feature of this invention is that the adjustment assembly further includes a guide block, which is fixedly mounted on the machine body and located on one side of the handle, and the sliding guide rod slides on the guide block.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the sliding guide rod slides on the guide block fixed on the machine body. The guide block constrains the sliding guide rod to move only in a preset direction, thereby playing a guiding role to avoid deviation and more stably realizing the distance adjustment between the handle and the adjustment lever.

[0020] A further feature of this invention is that the flower collecting mechanism includes a cloth bag, which is fitted onto the machine body.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the cloth bag is placed on the machine body, and the cut chrysanthemums will fall naturally into the cloth bag through the machine body for centralized collection. The cloth bag can be disassembled for easy cleaning or replacement later.

[0022] A further feature of this invention is that the body includes a top plate, a bottom plate, and two side plates, the two side plates being fixedly connected to the top plate and the bottom plate.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the machine body serves as a supporting frame, integrating three functional mechanisms: combing, holding, and flower collection. The combing mechanism is set on the bottom plate and is responsible for combing the chrysanthemum stems to the cutting area for cutting. The holding mechanism is mounted on one side of the top plate and is manually held to control the movement of the whole machine and adjust the cutting action. The two side plates and the bottom plate together form part of the flower collection mechanism, providing a collection channel and holding space for the cut chrysanthemums.

[0024] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0025] 1. First, the machine body is held by the gripping mechanism and pushed forward. The combing mechanism at the front of the machine body first contacts the chrysanthemum stems, combing the stems of different thicknesses between the fixed blade and the adjustable blade. Then, the gripping mechanism drives the adjustable blade to move, so that it forms a cutting pair with the fixed blade, completing the cutting operation of the chrysanthemum stems. The cut chrysanthemums naturally fall into the flower collecting mechanism, which collects them in a concentrated manner, ultimately achieving efficient harvesting of chrysanthemums with stems of different thicknesses.

[0026] 2. When using a knife to cut, the shearing force of the blade can break the stem quickly and neatly. Compared with the tearing action of pulling and pulling, it will not exert additional force on the surrounding petals, thus protecting the integrity of the petals and reducing damage to the plant.

[0027] 3. The gripping mechanism controls the movement of the linkage rod, which drives the blade one, which is fixedly connected to the linkage rod, to move synchronously, so that it interacts with the blade two fixed on the support rod to form a cutting action; at the same time, an elastic component is provided between the blade one and the blade two, which can help adjust the fit gap between the two blades or buffer the cutting impact force to ensure the stability of the cutting process.

[0028] 4. Grip the handle and adjust the lever. Move the lever closer to the handle. The action is transmitted sequentially through the sliding guide rod and the transmission link, causing the linkage rod to move synchronously.

[0029] 5. The cloth bag is placed on the machine body. The cut chrysanthemums will fall naturally into the cloth bag through the machine body for centralized collection. The cloth bag can be disassembled for easy cleaning or replacement later. Attached Figure Description

[0036] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0037] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a chrysanthemum harvesting device includes a body 1, on which a combing mechanism, a gripping mechanism, and a flower collecting mechanism are installed. The gripping mechanism is used to hold the body 1. The combing mechanism includes a fixed blade and an adjustable blade, which are arranged adjacent to each other vertically and alternately. The gripping mechanism controls the movement of the adjustable blade, so that it works in conjunction with the fixed blade to cut the stems of the chrysanthemums. The flower collecting mechanism is used to collect the chrysanthemums. The initial distance between blade 3 and blade 6 is relatively wide, which can accommodate thicker chrysanthemum stems. The body 1 is first held by the gripping mechanism. The machine pushes forward, and the combing mechanism at the front of the machine first contacts the chrysanthemum stem, combing the stems of different thicknesses between the fixed blade and the adjustable blade. Then, the holding mechanism drives the adjustable blade to move, so that it forms a cutting pair with the fixed blade, completing the cutting operation of the chrysanthemum stem. The figure shows the cutting state. The cut chrysanthemums naturally fall into the flower collecting mechanism, which collects them in a concentrated manner, ultimately achieving efficient harvesting of chrysanthemums with stems of different thicknesses. Moreover, the use of blades for cutting can protect the integrity of the petals and reduce damage to the plant.

[0038] The adjustable cutting tool includes a linkage rod 2, several blades 3, and an elastic component 4. The linkage rod 2 is located on one side of the machine body 1, and the several blades 3 are fixedly located on the side of the linkage rod 2 away from the machine body 1. The elastic component 4 is located between the fixed cutting tool and the blades 3. The gripping mechanism controls the movement of the linkage rod 2. The fixed cutting tool includes a support rod 5 and several blades 6. The support rod 5 is located above the linkage rod 2 and is fixedly located on the machine body 1. The several blades 6 are fixedly located on the side of the support rod 5 close to the blades 3. The blades 3 and blades 6 are staggered, and the elastic component 4 is provided between the blades 6 and the blades 3. Both blade 3 and blade 6 are equipped with guide blade angles. With the cutting plane of the two blades as the reference plane, the angle of the guide blade angle is designed to be in the range of 15°-30°, with the preferred value in the figure being 25°. This guide blade angle guides the stem of the chrysanthemum into the cutting area. The holding mechanism moves by controlling the linkage rod 2, which drives the blade 3, which is fixedly connected to the linkage rod 2, to move synchronously. This causes the blade 3 to interact with the blade 6 fixed on the support rod 5 to form a cutting action, generating a shearing force on the stem. At the same time, an elastic component 4 is provided between blade 3 and blade 6, which can help adjust the fit gap between the two blades or buffer the cutting impact force to ensure the stability of the cutting process.

[0039] The elastic component 4 includes a spring 41 and a limiting block 42. The limiting block 42 is slidably mounted on the support rod 5, and the first blade 3 is fixedly mounted on the limiting block 42. The spring 41 is slidably mounted on the support rod 5, and the two ends of the spring 41 are fixedly connected to the second blade 6 and the limiting block 42, respectively. When the linkage rod 2 moves, it drives the limiting block 42 and the first blade 3 fixed to the limiting block 42 to move synchronously, interacting with the second blade 6 on the support rod 5 to complete the cutting. The spring 41 between the blades can adaptively adjust the mating gap between the two blades through elastic deformation, thereby adapting to chrysanthemum stems of different thicknesses and ensuring reliable cutting.

[0040] A limiting groove 7 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the body 1, and the linkage rod 2 is slidably disposed on the limiting groove 7. When the linkage rod 2 is only connected to the support rod 5 through the spring 41, the stability is insufficient. However, the limiting groove 7 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the body 1, which can form an additional limiting constraint on the linkage rod 2, guide it to move smoothly along the preset trajectory, and thus significantly improve the stability of the movement of the linkage rod 2.

[0041] The gripping mechanism includes a handle 8 and an adjustment component 9. The handle 8 is fixedly mounted on the body 1, and the adjustment component 9 is slidably mounted on the body 1. The adjustment component 9 includes an adjustment lever 91, a sliding guide rod 92, and a transmission link 93. The adjustment lever 91 is parallel to the handle 8, and the sliding guide rod 92 is fixedly connected to the adjustment lever 91. The linkage rod 2 is fixedly connected to the sliding guide rod 92 through the transmission link 93. The sliding guide rod 92 is vertically fixedly connected to the adjustment lever 91. When the handle 8 and the adjustment lever 91 are gripped, the adjustment lever 91 moves towards the handle 8. The action is transmitted sequentially through the sliding guide rod 92 and the transmission link 93, causing the linkage rod 2 to move synchronously.

[0042] The adjustment assembly 9 also includes a guide block 94, which is fixedly mounted on the body 1 and located on one side of the handle 8. The sliding guide rod 92 slides on the guide block 94. The guide block 94 constrains the sliding guide rod 92 to move only in a preset direction, thereby playing a guiding role to avoid deviation and more stably realizing the distance adjustment between the handle 8 and the adjustment lever 91.

[0043] The flower collection mechanism includes a cloth bag, which is fitted onto the machine body 1. With the cloth bag fitted onto the machine body 1, the cut chrysanthemums will naturally fall into the cloth bag through the machine body 1 for centralized collection. The cloth bag is also detachable for easy cleaning or replacement later.

[0044] The machine body 1 includes a top plate 10, a bottom plate 11, and two side plates 12, which are fixedly connected to the top plate 10 and the bottom plate 11. The machine body 1 serves as a supporting frame and integrates three functional mechanisms: combing, holding, and flower collection. The combing mechanism is located on the bottom plate 11 and is responsible for combing the chrysanthemum stems to the cutting area. The holding mechanism is mounted on one side of the top plate 10 and is manually held to control the movement of the whole machine and adjust the cutting action. The two opposite side plates 12 and the bottom plate 11 together form part of the flower collection mechanism, providing a collection channel and holding space for the cut chrysanthemums.

[0045] The working process of this chrysanthemum harvesting device is as follows:

[0046] S1. After the cloth bag is placed on the rear of the machine body 1, hold the handle 8 to pick up the machine body 1 and push it forward. The second blade 6 and the first blade 3 at the front of the machine body 1 first contact the stem of the chrysanthemum and comb the stems of different thicknesses between the two blades.

[0047] S2. Then grip the handle 8 and the adjusting lever 91. Move the adjusting lever 91 closer to the handle 8. The action is transmitted sequentially through the sliding guide rod 92 and the transmission link 93, which drives the linkage rod 2 to move synchronously. This causes the blade 3, which is fixedly connected to the linkage rod 2, to move synchronously, so that it interacts with the blade 6 fixed on the support rod 5 to form a cutting action. At the same time, an elastic component 4 is provided between the blade 3 and the blade 6, which can help adjust the fit gap between the two blades or buffer the cutting impact force to ensure the stability of the cutting process.

[0048] S3. When the linkage rod 2 is only connected to the support rod 5 by the spring 41, the stability is insufficient. However, the limiting groove 7 is fixedly set below the body 1, which can form an additional limiting constraint on the linkage rod 2. The sliding guide rod 92 slides on the guide block 94 fixed on the body 1. The guide block 94 constrains the sliding guide rod 92 to move only in a preset direction, thus playing a guiding role to avoid deviation.

[0049] S4. Then the machine body 1 tilts slightly backward, and the cut chrysanthemums fall naturally into the cloth bag through the channel formed by the two opposite side plates 12 and the bottom plate 11, achieving centralized collection. This ultimately achieves efficient harvesting of chrysanthemums with stems of different thicknesses. Moreover, the use of a blade for cutting can protect the integrity of the petals and reduce damage to the plant.
