A picker for efficiently picking up silage.

Abstract

A high-efficiency silage picker includes a picking auger, a silage plate, a picking motor, a picking transmission component, and a connecting plate. The connecting plate is symmetrically installed at one end of the silage plate and fixed to the side of the feeding belt. The picking auger and picking motor are positioned above the silage plate. The picking auger comprises multiple augers arranged side by side. The picking transmission component is connected to the augers and picking motor and transmits power. A retracting auger is located at the other end of the silage plate, perpendicular to the picking augers. As the silage is pushed into the silage pile, the silage enters the silage plate and is drawn back towards the discharge opening of the silage plate by the picking and retracting augers, causing the silage to move onto the feeding belt. During this process, there is no bucket causing the silage to fly, effectively preventing the pollution of large amounts of shredded straw and dust generated during the operation of the loading loader, while also saving the loading loader and related costs.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of silage baling and wrapping, and in particular to a picker for efficiently picking up silage. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of my country's animal husbandry industry and the advancement of the national "grain-to-feed" project, the animal husbandry industry has developed rapidly. Among them, the new silage model of baling and wrapping silage has also risen in popularity and is increasingly recognized by users.

[0003] Currently, there are two types of silage baling and wrapping equipment on the market: stationary and self-propelled harvesting types. Stationary types are represented by large silage baling and wrapping machines from Norway's Okur and the US's Gowell, as well as domestically produced small and medium-sized stationary silage baling and wrapping machines from Wuzheng Gaobei. Their common feature is a large-capacity storage hopper. At a fixed work site, one or two loaders scoop up the harvested and crushed forage and pour it into the silage baling and wrapping hopper for the machine to process. During operation, this type of stationary silage baling and wrapping machine generates a large amount of dust, including straw ash, which spills out even in windless conditions, causing significant environmental pollution. Self-propelled harvesting types are represented by domestically produced small and medium-sized self-propelled silage baling and wrapping machines from Wuzheng Gaobei. Although it integrates harvesting, crushing, transportation, and baling, its output is less than half that of a stationary silage baling and wrapping machine of the same size because the harvesting process is slow. Not to mention, compared with large stationary silage baling and wrapping machines, the self-propelled harvester can only be used for small-scale silage baling and wrapping production.

[0004] Currently, while stationary harvesting is highly efficient, the use of forklifts for loading materials causes significant environmental pollution and waste. On the other hand, self-propelled harvesting methods are inefficient and cannot meet the needs of rapid production due to the short harvesting period and susceptibility to weather conditions. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as fixed-position equipment which is efficient but causes significant environmental pollution due to loader loading, and self-propelled harvesting baling and wrapping equipment which has low harvesting efficiency, and to provide a picker for efficiently picking up silage.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is a picker for efficiently picking up silage. The picker includes a picking auger, a material plate, a picking motor, a picking transmission component, and two connecting plates. The connecting plates are symmetrically installed at one end of the material plate and fixed to the side of the feeding belt. The picking auger and the picking motor are disposed on the surface of the material plate. The picking auger includes multiple augers arranged side by side. The picking transmission component includes a picking transmission chain and multiple picking transmission sprockets. The picking transmission sprockets rotate coaxially on the transmission shafts of the auger and the picking motor. The picking transmission chain meshes with the multiple transmission sprockets simultaneously. As the utility model is pushed into the silage pile, the silage enters the material plate. Driven by the picking motor, the auger rotates. The silage pushed onto the surface of the material plate is conveyed to the upper end of the material plate and falls onto the feeding belt as the auger rotates. Then, it sequentially enters the wrapping mechanism and the pressure chamber to complete the wrapping and baling.

[0007] Furthermore, the material plate is U-shaped and forms a feeding trough to prevent the grass from leaking out from both sides of the material plate, and the picking auger is set inside the feeding trough.

[0008] Furthermore, an installation rod is fixed at the opening of the feeding trough on the material plate, the picking motor is fixed on the installation rod, and a bearing seat connected to the picking auger is fixed at one end of the installation rod near the picking auger.

[0009] Furthermore, the pickup auger includes a forward-rotating auger and a reverse-rotating auger, which are spaced apart from each other. The pickup drive chain meshes with the lower end face of the pickup drive sprocket on the forward-rotating auger, and the pickup drive chain meshes with the upper end face of the pickup drive sprocket on the reverse-rotating auger.

[0010] Furthermore, the pickup device also includes a gathering auger, a gathering motor, and a gathering transmission component. The gathering auger is located at one end of the material plate, and the gathering motor is fixed to a mounting rod. The gathering auger includes an auger shaft, a left-hand auger blade, and a right-hand auger blade. The left-hand auger blade is fixed to one end of the auger shaft, and the right-hand auger blade is fixed to the other end of the auger shaft. The gathering transmission component includes a gathering transmission chain and multiple gathering transmission sprockets. The gathering transmission sprockets rotate coaxially on the transmission shaft of the auger shaft and the gathering motor. The gathering transmission chain meshes with the multiple gathering transmission sprockets simultaneously. The forage is conveyed by the pickup auger to the side of the trough near the gathering auger. The gathering auger rotates under the power transmission of the gathering motor and the gathering transmission component. The left-hand and right-hand auger blades rotate simultaneously, causing the forage on the left side to be moved towards the center of the material plate by the left-hand auger blade, and the forage on the right side to be moved towards the center of the material plate by the right-hand auger blade.

[0011] Furthermore, the end of the material plate near the feeding belt has a gathering groove that communicates with the feeding trough. The gathering auger is rotatably connected in the gathering groove. The depth of the gathering groove is greater than the depth of the feeding trough, and the gathering auger is located below the picking auger and does not touch each other.

[0012] Furthermore, the center of the converging groove has a discharge opening, and the discharge opening is directly opposite the feeding belt. The center of the auger shaft has no auger blades, so that the grass on the left and right sides falls from the discharge opening onto the feeding belt.

[0013] Furthermore, the rod of the picking auger is provided with a bearing seat fixed to the surface of the material plate, and the picking auger is fixed together with the bearing seat on the mounting rod.

[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0015] This invention utilizes an automatic chassis equipped with a pickup device for automated forage pickup. As the self-propelled chassis moves, the forage is pushed into a feed plate and gradually lifted by a pickup auger to a retracting auger. The retracting auger gathers the forage wider than the feed belt towards the discharge opening of the feed plate, moving all the forage onto the feed belt. During this process, the absence of a bucket prevents forage from flying, effectively preventing pollution from the large amounts of straw and dust generated during loading loader operations. This reduces the respiratory damage to all on-site workers and nearby personnel caused by dust, effectively improving the working environment. Simultaneously, the elimination of the storage hopper and the automatic pickup by the pickup device reduces the labor intensity of the workers. The pickup device is also unaffected by the harvesting speed, allowing pickup to be performed during simultaneous or early harvesting, increasing production speed while meeting the timeliness requirements of silage harvesting, and eliminating the need for a loading loader and related costs.

[0023] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, the pickup 1 is installed on a self-propelled baling and wrapping machine. The self-propelled baling and wrapping machine includes the pickup 1, the feeding belt 2, the wrapping mechanism 3, the pressure chamber 4, and the self-propelled chassis 5. The wrapping mechanism 3 and the pressure chamber 4 are structures used in existing baling and wrapping machines. They are installed and fixed on the top of the self-propelled chassis 5. The self-propelled chassis 5 specifically includes a chassis, tires, engine, drive axle, and other traditional transmission structures. The self-propelled chassis 5 is also a technology that can be purchased on the market. Remote control can be achieved by adding a cab or control module. The feeding belt 2 is installed at an angle in front of one end of the self-propelled chassis 5. The pickup 1 is installed on the surface of the feeding belt 2 on the side close to the ground. At the same time, the pickup 1 is close to the ground but does not contact the ground.

[0025] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The pickup 1 includes a pickup auger 11, a material plate 12, a pickup motor 13, a pickup transmission component 14, a connecting plate 15, a mounting rod 16, a retracting auger 17, a retracting motor 18, and a retracting transmission component 19. Two connecting plates 15 are provided symmetrically and are symmetrically installed on the side of the material plate 12 near the feeding belt 2. The connecting plates 15 are installed horizontally and one end is fixed to the mounting rod 16 of the material plate 12, and the other end is fixed to the side surface of the feeding belt 2. The material plate 12 has an overall shape similar to a "U" and a feeding trough 121 is formed on its surface. The "U"-shaped opening of the material plate 12 is perpendicular to the upward direction of the surface of the material plate 12. That is, when there is grass in front of the material plate 12, the grass can be collected into the "U"-shaped feeding trough 121 of the material plate 12. In addition, there is a gathering groove 122 on the side of the material plate 12 away from the ground. The gathering groove 122 is formed by setting an arc plate of about 90 degrees on the side of the material plate 12 away from the ground to prevent grass from falling off the top of the material plate 12. The depth of the gathering groove 122 is greater than the depth of the feeding trough 121.

[0026] The picking auger 11 is installed in the feeding trough 121, the gathering auger 17 is installed in the gathering groove 122, the mounting rod 16 is fixedly installed at the opening of the material plate 12, the picking motor 13 and the gathering motor 18 are both fixed on the mounting rod 16, the picking transmission component 14 is connected to both the picking motor 13 and the picking auger 11, and the gathering transmission component 19 is connected to both the gathering motor 18 and the gathering auger 17.

[0027] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3Specifically, the picking auger 11 includes multiple forward-rotating augers 111 and multiple reverse-rotating augers 112, which are arranged alternately in sequence. The forward-rotating augers 111 and reverse-rotating augers 112 are positioned along the direction towards the feeding belt 2 or the transport direction of the feeding belt 2. Both the forward-rotating auger 111 and the reverse-rotating auger are composed of a rotating rod and auger blades. The portion of the rotating rod located in the feeding trough 121 has auger blades, while the remaining portion consists only of the rod itself. In fact, the difference between the forward-rotating auger 111 and the reverse-rotating auger lies in whether the auger plates are arranged in the forward or reverse direction. The pickup transmission component 14 includes a pickup transmission chain 141 and multiple pickup transmission sprockets 142. The pickup transmission sprockets 142 are coaxially arranged at one end of the forward-rotating auger 111 and the reverse-rotating auger. Another pickup transmission sprocket 142 is coaxially arranged on the drive shaft of the pickup motor 13. In addition, two more pickup transmission sprockets 142 are rotatably mounted on the mounting rod 16. The main function of these two pickup transmission sprockets 142 is to ensure the power transmission of the pickup transmission sprockets 142 that are away from the pickup motor 13, and to prevent the pickup chain from touching the mounting rod 16. Multiple pickup drive sprockets 142 are all located on the same plane, ensuring stable power transmission of the pickup chain. The pickup chain meshes with the lower end face of the pickup drive sprocket 142 on the forward-rotating auger 111, while the pickup drive chain 141 meshes with the upper end face of the pickup drive sprocket 142 on the reverse-rotating auger 112. That is, the pickup chain's alternating meshing of the lower and upper ends causes adjacent forward-rotating augers 111 and reverse-rotating augers 112 to rotate in different directions. Combined with the fact that the auger plates of the forward-rotating augers 111 and reverse-rotating augers 112 are opposite to each other, this results in adjacent forward-rotating augers 111... The auger blades of the forward-rotating auger 111 and the reverse-rotating auger 112 rotate simultaneously towards the middle or the outer side of the two augers. As the self-propelled chassis 5 moves forward, the grass is pushed onto the surface of the material plate 12 along with the movement of the self-propelled chassis 5. Under the power transmission of the pickup motor 13 and the pickup transfer member, the grass pushed onto the surface of the material plate 12 is driven to the center or the outer side of the two augers as the auger blades rotate. At the same time, the grass will rotate along with the auger blades and will be gradually lifted along the spiral direction of the auger blades and sent to the gathering groove 122 at the upper end of the material plate 12.

[0028] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The auger 17 includes an auger shaft 171, a left-hand auger blade 172, and a right-hand auger blade 173. The auger shaft 171 is rotatably connected to the two side walls of the gathering groove 122 via bearing seats, i.e., rotatably connected to the material plate 12. The left-hand auger blade 172 is located at the left end of the auger shaft 171, and the right-hand auger blade 173 is located at the right end of the auger shaft 171. There are no auger blades in the middle of the auger shaft 171, only the shaft body. The middle part of the gathering groove 122 has a discharge opening 123, i.e., the part of the shaft body of the auger shaft 171 without auger blades corresponds to the discharge opening 123. The lower part of the discharge opening 123 faces the feeding belt 2. The gathering transmission component 19 includes a gathering transmission chain 191 and multiple gathering transmission sprockets 192. The gathering transmission sprockets 192 are coaxially rotated on one end of the auger shaft 171 and the drive shaft of the gathering motor 18. The gathering transmission chain 191 and the multiple gathering transmission sprockets 192 mesh simultaneously. After the hay is lifted to a certain height by the picking auger 11, the hay is located at the junction of the gathering groove 122 and the feeding trough 121. The hay at the junction will be squeezed into the gathering groove 122 by the hay lifted up later. Under the power transmission of the collecting motor and the gathering transmission component 19, the gathering auger 17... When rotation occurs, the left-hand auger blade 172 and the right-hand auger blade 173 on the auger shaft 171 rotate. Since the spiral directions of the left-hand auger blade 172 and the right-hand auger blade 173 are different and they are located at both ends of the auger shaft 171, the straw on the left is driven by the left-hand auger blade 172 to move along the spiral direction of the auger blade towards the discharge opening 123, and the straw on the right is driven by the right-hand auger blade 173 to move along the spiral direction of the auger blade towards the discharge opening 123. After the straw moves to the discharge opening 123, it falls directly onto the feeding belt 2, and then enters the wrapping mechanism 3 and the pressure chamber 4 in sequence to complete the bundling and wrapping.

[0029] Furthermore, since the depth of the gathering groove 122 is greater than the depth of the feeding trough 121, the auger shaft 171 of the gathering auger 17 is installed close to the bottom edge of the gathering groove 122, so that the auger blades of the gathering auger 17 will not collide with the auger blades of the picking auger 11; and the picking auger 11 is fixed and supported by the bearing seat installed on the mounting rod 16 near the side of the picking auger 11, and the bearing seat installed at the junction of the feeding trough 121 and the gathering groove 122.
