The front side wall of described front slideway 9 is provided with level " recessed " shape bracing frame 18, this bracing frame 18 is in the middle part of front slideway 9, this bracing frame 18 is provided with the first wiring dish 17, this the first wiring dish 17 is provided with steel wire rope 12, the other end of this steel wire rope 12 is connected with the second wiring dish 11 through after semienclosed 3rd pulley 13, described 3rd pulley 13 is connected with top crosspiece 7 by support, described second wiring dish 11 is arranged in the mountain region below the crosspiece 7 of top, and this second wiring dish 11 is provided with wind; The side of described first wiring dish 17 is provided with ratchet 20, this ratchet 20 contacts with ratchet 24, this ratchet 24 is flexibly connected with the support being arranged on front slideway 9 top, the bottom of described ratchet 24 front portion is provided with helical spring 23, this spring 23 other end is connected with the front side wall of front slideway 9, the top of described ratchet 24 head is provided with stay cord 22, the other end of this stay cord 22 is connected with draw ring 21 after being passed down through the Tiaokou be arranged on ratchet 24 again after semienclosed 4th pulley 19, described draw ring 21 is in half hanging shape, and this draw ring 21 is lower than described first wiring dish 17; Described 4th pulley 19 is flexibly connected with the support being arranged on front slideway 9 top, and the 4th pulley 19 is higher than described ratchet 24 and the top be in the middle part of ratchet 24; Be provided with mobilizable first ladder between described top crosspiece 7 and strawberry tree mountain region, between described lower rung and strawberry tree mountain region, be provided with mobilizable second ladder.
When red bayberry enters the ripe picking period, people can climb up the first ladder and enter the downward close strawberry tree top of base plate 4(base plate 4 and and stay at regular intervals between strawberry tree top), both the red bayberry of base plate 4 being plucked strawberry tree top and top can be sitting in, also can prostrate on base plate 4 (head is forward namely towards the side of top crosspiece 7) pluck red bayberry, such two hands can go deep in strawberry tree downwards more, the red bayberry on strawberry tree top and top can be arrived by harvesting more, and namely the red bayberry of harvesting puts into the basket be arranged on base plate 4.People rotatable left side wiring dish 25 also makes associated rope 14 be involved in this wiring dish, rope 14 between the montant 8 of front slideway 9 left end and left side wiring dish 25 is shortened, thus base plate 4 is moved (namely by the left slippage of the second pulley 15 on front slideway 9 and rear slideway 10, and driving suspension rod 3 and base plate 4 to be moved to the left by the second pulley 15) to the left; When base plate 4 is moved to the left, 14, the rope in right side wiring dish 16 can naturally correspondingly roll out.Simultaneously, people's also rotatable right side wiring dish 16 make the rope 14 of being correlated be involved in this wiring dish, rope 14 between the montant 8 of front slideway 9 right-hand member and right side wiring dish 16 is shortened, thus make base plate 4 move (because four group of second pulley 15 can be smooth and easy in front slideway 9, rear slideway 10, flexibly and specification ground slippage to the right, so, when base plate 4 front portion is driven slippage by the rope 14 in left side wiring dish 25 or right side wiring dish 16, whole base plate 4 also can follow slippage slowly together).Because base plate 4 can convenient transverse moving left and right, the red bayberry on strawberry tree top or top can be picked by people very all sidedly.
People can by draw ring 21 toward drop-down, ratchet 24 pull-up to be separated with ratchet 20 by rope 14 by draw ring 21, there is no the supporting and location of ratchet 24, move after ratchet 20 and the first wiring dish 17 will follow front slideway 9 and automatic rotation (because top crosspiece 7 is higher than lower rung, so shelves 2 are indulged in left side, right side is indulged shelves 5 and is arranged on the vertical shelves 2 in left side, end slipway in the vertical shelves 5 in right side all becomes oblique, the first pulley 6 be connected with end slipway can drive front slideway 9, rear slideway 10 and base plate 4 etc. are automatically downwardly towards rear movement), when first wiring dish 17 rotates, the steel wire rope 12 on this wiring dish is made automatically to roll out elongated, thus make front slideway 9, rear slideway 10 and base plate 4 etc. can automatically smooth and easy after move.When hand is unclamped draw ring 21 by people, ratchet 24 can be left behind by spring 23 and automatically again contacted with ratchet 20 and lived by ratchet 20 supporting and location, ratchet 20 and the first wiring dish 17 would not rotate, steel wire rope 12 would not roll out elongated, because there being the tractive of steel wire rope 12, front slideway 9, rear slideway 10 and base plate 4 etc. can not move backward, and now, people can pluck the red bayberry on strawberry tree top or top.People move gradually backward by controlling base plate 4 to the operation of ratchet 20, ratchet 24, thus can completely be picked by the red bayberry on strawberry tree top or top more all sidedly.
Base plate 4 be in front slideway 9, rear slideway 10 middle part time, then implement automatically moving back of front slideway 9, rear slideway 10 and base plate 4 etc., like this can be convenient more smooth and easy.And the setting of bracing frame 18, first wiring dish 17, ratchet 20, ratchet 24, draw ring 21 etc. can not affect the left and right slippage of the second pulley 15 in front slideway 9.
When moving on to after a people terminates to pluck the red bayberry on strawberry tree top or top after base plate 4, people get off by the second ladder, then the second wiring Pan11Chu is gone to, by rotating this wiring dish, steel wire rope 12 is involved in the second wiring dish 11, thus front slideway 9 and base plate 4 etc. are pulled to top crosspiece 7 place again, and front slideway 9 is temporarily connected with top crosspiece 7, then rotate the first wiring dish 17(and turning handle can be set on the spoke of the first wiring dish 17), again the steel wire rope 12 on the second wiring dish 11 is involved in the first wiring dish 17 again, the harvesting work to strawberry tree top or top red bayberry next time can be started.
The present invention to compare specification, the modern scale red bayberry woods that aspect ratio is more consistent are more suitable, according to the size of the red bayberry woods, can arrange several or multiple the present invention.Drop into although of the present invention and need certain cost, once after dropping into, safeguard and use cost very low, and can Long-Time Service, even can use more than 10 years, so, be highly in the long term.
The various simple change made by those of ordinary skill in the art, remodeling all would not depart from the scope of the present invention.
