The disclosure document of reference shows the improved persistently need in terms of the operation commercial unit to being gathered in for cotton Ask, fully to meet production, environment and economic condition specific to global cotton environment.
As will be explained below the significant difference relative to embodiment of above is shown with explanation, the purpose of the present invention And improvement.
The harvester of the present invention is the integral harvesting unit of the stripper type with cotton cleaning systems, this is integrally gathered in Unit produces cylindrical module by means of the module structure device of fixed chamber type.
, should by using current device with size configurations cotton module actual for it and appropriate for easily handling Integral stripper unit enables the efficiency during harvesting to maximize, and less energy is required simultaneously for whole process, and Improved economic equilibrium is aimed at, including relatively low environment influences.
The present invention provides a kind of novel progress or research and development, to meet specific condition in many countries.
Two mechanization systems are popular in the market, particularly in the past few years:
- picker system, its by make spindle unit rotate, in a manner of selective and be clean from cotton boll gather cotton come Operation, and
- stripper system, it uses the letter of such as rotating brush or more conventional multiple fingers of similar big comb etc Single removal device removes whole cotton boll from plant, and the not enough cleaning to the eye compared with picker system of its product, also needs Want the cleaning treatment before industrial production.
At 2000 in some countries, such as in Argentina, a kind of new production strategy is had been developed that, which wraps The substantial amounts of plant of cultivation of --- being known as " narrow ditch " --- on per unit surface is included with narrower and more closely interval ditch, from And the plant size of smaller is obtained, manage the crop cycle and and concentrate production process.Also achieve per unit surface The crop yield of bigger, so as to drive the strategy to propagate rapidly, accounts for about the 75% of total cultivation surface at present.
For these crops, the stripping type harvester developed and better adapted to, it is clear to apply cotton Clean system so that be possible to obtain high cleanliness while the proper mass of protection fiber, that is, the elementary object for realizing processing And high quality level.
In addition, the cost for often gathering in ton for peeling off type is less than the cost for often gathering in ton using picker system.
The favourable Other Concomitant Factors for peeling off type harvesting are its high efficiency, reach and have carried out well-tuned for collection Crop in cotton boll 98%.The efficiency is consistently higher than the efficiency of picker system, especially with unfavorable harvesting condition and tired In the crop of difficult harvesting condition and those are only capable of by means of peeling off type machine come in the crop gathered in many cases.
The harvester of these different systems usually cotton gathered in of accumulation and conveying in hopper or cage, in the material In bucket or cage, cotton is placed in the case where not being compacted and not carrying out any processing, until hopper or cage are filled and are reached Unloading point.
Independently of cropping system, cotton is largely directly unloaded on ground from hopper, in big accumulation heap, until cotton It is loaded into truck.
These heaps are placed in the field gone out by the broken cotton stubble from the section gathered in and preparation or put Put in another quite clean place, but in most cases, be normally unsuitable for being used in cotton not by dust, pasture waste Cotton is unloaded with the case of the pollution such as broken cotton stem.
Cotton is being loaded into truck with during transporting to ginnery by this pollution by means of capstan winch or dilatory machine clamp Further aggravated.
In order to realize enough compactings and improve cargo tonnage, staff is on the payroll manually to place and compress load Lotus, this is arduous, expensive and even dangerous task, for this reason, obtainable voluntarily labour is fewer and fewer or at some Even it is not present in region.
The processing of cotton was left for improved space due to the problem of cotton changes according to region all the time after harvesting, this It can be illustrated by the low-down density to be shipped that gathered in cotton amount for transporting to ginnery and very big volume.
The more reasonable and appropriate mode --- but to gather in the use of the small percentage of total amount --- of processing harvesting is to pass through " module " is constructed on farm and is realized, which includes the load of harvesting being directly discharged into from machine to be adjusted for cotton In the great achievement moulding box of compression, some tons of module for preserving cotton is formed.These modules are put down followed by special machinery Platform and be loaded into truck so as to by module send to ginning handle, as long as distance of freight carried is not too long.Distance more than 30km makes The processing of this form becomes very expensive, limits its use in large-scale production company.
In in recent years, several picking harvesters can be obtained commercially.These machines manufacture all when gathering in cotton The module or bundle of module or bundle as described above etc.
Due to these designs, in order to reach 2 tons to 4 tons of module, and since specific technology, economy and society need Ask, these machines can each weigh 30 tons, give its size, it is desirable to run the concept of power and purchase price.
The machine has big harvesting ability, as long as disclosure satisfy that as mass producing, situation is excellent and high yield The felicity condition of crop and high landform intensity etc.Defect is that these machines can have operability limitation, and which compromises it to have Effect property and convenience.
Experience and the support of various competitive advantages are gathered in by type machine is peeled off, it is simple it is an object of the invention to increase Property and operating efficiency in terms of, be integrated into a unit, in addition to harvesting and cleaning, the unit is also tight by being formed Real module or bundle adjust product.
The module has the size being consistent with the available processing unit of the production unit to small size to medium size, tool There are the equipment similar with the loading winch that uses at present, the rank in every unit 600kg to 800kg.The module also has It is allowed suitably to be loaded into the size of truck, so as to allow the aggregate tonnage of increase to adjust long-distance transport cost.
