Description

Portable apple picker

Technical Field

The invention discloses a portable apple picker, and belongs to the technical field of pickers.

Background

In the season of picking apples in areas where apples are grown in China, the situation that the apples cannot be picked by hands due to the fact that the fruit trees are too high or the branches stretch to the periphery for too long time can be met, picking is achieved by picking people by selecting ladders or heightening frames under the situation, the apples are connected with tree trunks through fruit roots at the ends, the apple storage period can be prolonged only by communicating the fruit roots to pick the apples together, and the time is wasted and potential safety hazards can be brought to picking personnel if the terrain is steep by adopting the picking mode. Some pickers even give up picking of long-distance apples and abandon the long-distance apples on apple trees, which causes certain economic loss for growers.

The common device that is used for long distance apple to pick in the existing market has apple picker with three paws and apple picker with cloth pocket sewing. The three-jaw picking device can be used for shrinking the three jaws and then wrapping the apple body, and then forcibly pulling down to pick the high-branch apples, but for apples with small sizes, the apples are difficult to pick due to insufficient wrapping of the three jaws, and meanwhile, the three-jaw picking device can also cause some apple stalks to be left on fruit trees, so that the later storage shelf life of the apples is influenced, and even for apples with loose fruit stalks, the possibility that the peels are damaged due to excessive exertion is avoided; the later clamps the position of the apple stem and the apple body through the sawteeth on the circular ring, and pulls the apple back to the cloth bag by force, thereby achieving the purpose of picking the apple. However, the device can scrape the apple body, the position of the apple is also required, and if the position of the apple is not consistent, picking is time-consuming.

Disclosure of Invention

The invention aims to solve the technical problems that the existing picker is easy to damage apple bodies, and the apple stalks are easy to be left on fruit trees, so that the quality guarantee period of apples is shortened.

The technical scheme adopted by the invention for solving the technical problems is as follows: ware is picked to portable apple, including holding shell, stay cord and fender ring, hold connecting rod and the cavity hemisphere body that the shell is including connecting, keep off the ring including the dead lever and the annular fixed part of connecting, connecting rod middle part and dead lever middle part are articulated, rotate the connecting rod and can make the opening terminal surface of body and a terminal surface coincidence of fixed part, the end connection of body is kept away from to the one end of stay cord and connecting rod.

The device further comprises an elastic piece, and two ends of the elastic piece are respectively connected with the connecting rod at the hinged position and the inner wall of the fixing rod.

The device further comprises a sleeve, the end part of the fixed rod, far away from the fixed part, is connected with one end face of the sleeve, and the end part of the pull rope, far away from the connecting rod, penetrates into the sleeve.

Further, still include the handle among the above-mentioned device, the sleeve pipe is provided with the opening on keeping away from the lateral wall of dead lever, and the one end of handle stretches into in the opening and is articulated with the sleeve pipe, and the stay cord keeps away from the tip of connecting rod and is connected with the end of stretching into of handle.

Furthermore, a torsion spring is sleeved on the hinge shaft of the handle and the sleeve in the device.

Furthermore, in the device, an included angle between the handle and the side, close to the fixed part, of the sleeve is an acute angle.

Furthermore, in the device, a plurality of grooves are arranged on the outer side wall of the handle, and the grooves are arranged at the side close to the fixing part.

Furthermore, in the device, the end part of the sleeve is provided with a pulley, and the end part of the pull rope is connected with the connecting rod after passing around the pulley.

Furthermore, the limiting part with a sawtooth structure is arranged on the opening end surface of the body far away from the connecting rod.

Wherein, the side wall of the fixed part in the device is wrapped with flexible materials.

The invention has the beneficial effects that: this device pulling stay cord arranges the apple in between body and the fixed part, fixes the handle of apple between the terminal surface of body simultaneously, then slightly pulls hard, just makes the light harmless picking of remote apple get off to do not receive the restriction of apple growing position, any angle can both be reliable pluck the apple get off, and can not damage fruit body and root. And the device can be used for picking apples of any size. And the phenomenon of falling off after picking is not easy to occur. Meanwhile, compared with the traditional apple picker sewn by cloth bags, the device does not damage apple peel, is not inconvenient to pick due to the growth angle of the apple, does not cause the breakage of the fruit stalks and leaves the fruit stalks on fruit trees, and can prolong the shelf life of the apple; compared with three-claw apple picking, the device has stronger wrapping property, and when picking, the apple can be picked by slightly pulling the apple on the handle under the action of force, and the apple is not pulled downwards under the action of force after the apple is clamped by the three-claw picking device. The device is stronger to the protectiveness of apple, holds shell inner wall and adopts the elasticity flexible glue, installs the elasticity cloth on the tighrening ring, and these soft materials can play fine guard action to the apple peel. The device can be used for picking apples of any size. And the phenomenon of falling off after picking is not easy to occur.
