Description

"PERMANENT BREAKER DETERMINANT DEVICE IN PEANUT STARTERS"

BRIEF SUMMARY:

It addresses this application for a Patent Application for a new "PEANUT BREAKER DEVICE INTRODUCED IN PEANUT STARTER AND INVERTER", which has numerous advantages for the farmer, the machine operator and the equipment.

This detangling device is adapted to the side of the inverter equipment so that you can detangle the branches that get caught at the end of the main equipment guide discs and pipelines.

The device is formed from a metal arm with holes for attachment to the starter and inverter equipment and bolts to the main equipment, so that the specimen receives at the end of its body a slit receptive to a pulley for belt reception.

In the vicinity of this bracket is an orthogonal "C" shaped profile to the arm, containing a toothed disc in a pulley, protected by a metal cap that surrounds it and prevents peanut branches or other dirt from getting into the gears of the toothed disc and on the belt. A great innovation in peanut harvesting, as it improves yield and utilization without the need for periodic stops at work to clean the side corners of the main equipment that were once completely cluttered with debris.

The advantage of the device is that it works with the same line of inverter starter equipment, using the same traction and rotation, being a device that is easy to install, maintain and small in size, thus becoming a device that is easy to transport and install, and can even be installed in own farming in the field, at the moment the harvest begins.

In the present state of the art:

In the present state of the art, there is no type of detangling device, which is all done manually, where productivity is compromised, as the equipment does not work properly in its function of rapidly and continuously peanut ropes for harvesting do your work in sequence, in action right behind.

This entanglement on the sides of the toothed discs and the guide tubes compromises both the peanut harvesting productivity as the starter and inverter equipment, because in the harvest many peanut pods are lost, being crushed or out of the ropes, not sent by other following equipment, that harvests the deamendoim pods.

In the case of equipment, it compromises its mechanism, especially the belts that rotate the set of discs, overloaded and very forced with the heaviest traction and rotation, which wears them out faster. And also other mechanisms, such as the tubes that guide the rows correctly, and that are bent and out of the way by the excess of branches and other forced and continually accumulated dirt, such as weeds or other vegetation.

OF THE NEW INVENTION:

As is well known, the peanut starter and inverter equipment is operated from a tractor, which pulls and drives the equipment, causing the mechanism to start the peanut branches, ie the clump of each and throw them upside down, with the previously buried peanut pods being exposed above the ground, through the set of toothed discs along with the guide tubes, which also make the winders, all ready for other equipment to harvest the pods. , which follows close behind: the harvester.

But as mentioned above, in the current state of the art, there is a major problem of peanut branch accumulation or other vegetation, which eventually grows along with the peanut plantation on the sides of the equipment, and this causes harvesting and harvesting. equipment compromise their efficiency and durability.

To solve the problem, after several research and tests, a device was developed to remedy all this accumulation, releasing these branches back to the ropes and leaving the tooth set and guide tubes free for their uninterrupted operation, without any kind of accumulation and entanglement, making the equipment free of periodic maintenance and also the equipment operator does not interrupt the productivity dynamics by stopping to manually disengage the toothed disc and guide tube assemblies manually.

This equipment is of simple constructiveness and can be adapted to the peanut starter and inverter equipment without any extra power supply from the same, because it takes advantage of the traction and rotation of the set of toothed discs, through a belt and pulleys that power the device.

This device is formed by an arm, which is fixed on the side of the equipment, and this arm contains pulleys that will feed a disc that is in an orthogonal profile to the arm, being locked by a crossbar, to give more resistance to the device. It has a toothed disc that is located horizontally on the sides, right between the set of toothed discs and guide tubes, where the screw occurs. This decoder therefore pulls out and scatters the branches or other vegetation from the set of toothed discs and guide tubes to the center of the equipment where the windows are formed.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION:

The "PEANUT BREAKER DEVICE INTRODUCED IN PEANUT STARTER AND INVERTER" consists of a device (1) formed from a metal arm (2) with a pair of holes (3) which will secure it by screws to the main equipment, being the opposite end of the holes (3) the arm has a support (4) of adequate inclination, this support (4) being a slot (5) for receiving the shaft (6) of a pulley pair (7) .

In the same line of the support (4), but on the opposite side, orthogonal to the metallic arm (2) presents a profile (8) in the shape of a "C", containing a toothed disk (9), and may be spiral shaped, with shaft and bearing, having above the toothed disc (9) a pulley (10).

The entire toothed disk assembly (9), bearing and epolia (10), are protected by a protective cover (11) preventing deaming branches or other dirt from getting into the gears of the toothed disk (9) and the belt (12), which is attached to a rotation point of the main equipment (E) and follows the metal arm (2) through the pulley (7) until it reaches the second pulley (1) of the toothed disc (9), thus making its rotation, always following the rotation of said equipment main is).

The operation of the toothed disc (9) is done through the traction and rotation of the main equipment (E), and this disc tooth (9) is well located between the set of discs (13) and the guide tubes (14) of the main equipment. (E) where the twist occurs. This discodent (9) tears out and scatters the branches or other vegetation from the main toothed disc set (13) and guide tubes (14) to the center of the main equipment, where the windrow is formed.

The device (1) for its truly innovative features and the advantages it offers, fulfilling all the requirements of novelty and originality in the genre, meets the necessary conditions to deserve the Patent of Invention privilege.
