Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Ophiopogon japonicus harvesting technology, specifically to a device for cleaning and picking the roots of Ophiopogon japonicus plants. Background Technology

[0002] Ophiopogon japonicus is a perennial herb commonly found in Asia. Its narrow, green leaves and thick roots have medicinal value and are widely used in traditional Chinese medicine and herbal preparations. Generally, the best time to harvest Ophiopogon japonicus is between late autumn and early winter, when the medicinal components of the roots are most abundant. The processing of Ophiopogon japonicus involves harvesting it from the field and then processing it through a series of steps to prepare it for various uses such as medicine or food. Therefore, before processing Ophiopogon japonicus, it needs to be picked.

[0003] Currently, when harvesting Ophiopogon japonicus, a cutting device is needed to pick the plant. After picking, a large amount of soil adheres to the surface of the plant. However, the current picking device for Ophiopogon japonicus harvesting does not have the function of separating the soil. The soil can only be removed by manually beating or washing, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, reduces the processing efficiency of Ophiopogon japonicus, and is not conducive to the subsequent processing of Ophiopogon japonicus.

[0004] To address this, a device for cleaning and removing the roots of Ophiopogon japonicus plants for harvesting is proposed. Utility Model Content

One end of the first rotating rod 204 is fixedly connected to the second pulley 210. A transmission belt 211 is sleeved between the surfaces of the first pulley 209 and the second pulley 210. Limiting shells 212 are provided at the four corners of the top of the sieve plate 201. The top of the limiting shell 212 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the processing box 1, and the inner wall of the limiting shell 212 is fixedly connected to... The bottom of the first spring 213 is fixedly connected to the limiting frame 214. The bottom of the limiting frame 214 passes through the limiting shell 212 and is fixedly connected to the screen plate 201. By setting the cam 208, it can be used to drive the screen plate 201 to vibrate. By setting the first belt pulley 209, the transmission belt 211 and the second belt pulley 210, it is easy for the first rotating rod 204 to drive the second rotating rod 207 to rotate. By setting the limiting shell 212 and the limiting frame 214, the movement range of the screen plate 201 can be limited. By setting the first spring 213, it is easy for the screen plate 201 to move downward to reset.

[0025] As one embodiment of this utility model, refer to Figures 1-4 A pressure plate 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the cutter 3, and a pressure rod 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the pressure plate 4. Limiting telescopic rods 6 are fixedly connected between the bottom sides of the pressure plate 4 and the processing box 1.

[0026] Working principle: After harvesting, the Ophiopogon japonicus to be cut is placed under the cutter 3. With the cooperation of the pressure rod 5, the pressure plate 4 and the cutter 3 move downwards, cutting the Ophiopogon japonicus. The pressure plate 4 compresses the second spring 7. When the pressure rod 5 is released, the second spring 7 returns to its original position, causing the cutter 3 to move upwards to reset. The cut Ophiopogon japonicus is guided by the guide shell 9 into the processing box 1. The control motor 202 drives the first rotating rod 204 to rotate, which in turn drives the roller 205 and the second belt pulley 2. When roller 205 rotates, it drives the cleaning brush 206 to rotate, which can clean the dirt on the surface of the Ophiopogon japonicus. The Ophiopogon japonicus cleaned by the cleaning brush 206 will move downward and fall onto the sieve plate 201. The second belt pulley 210 can drive the second rotating rod 207 and cam 208 to rotate through the cooperation of the transmission belt 211 and the first belt pulley 209. The rotation of cam 208 will drive the sieve plate 201 to shake up and down through the cooperation of the first spring 213, thereby shaking off the dirt on the surface of the Ophiopogon japonicus, which can initially clean the dirt on the surface of the Ophiopogon japonicus.
