When the blades 200 are close to the limit position, the rhizome of the cabbage leaf may be completely cut, or only a part of the rhizome of the cabbage leaf may be cut, and the rest of the non-cut part may be pulled out during the upward movement of the blades 200 along with the jig, according to the different arrangement modes of the cutters.
Of course, in actual implementation, the blades 200 may be rotatably disposed on the fixture base 100 (not shown), and the number of the blades 200 may be one or multiple (not shown); however, when the blade is one piece, no matter the blade moves in a rotating mode or in a moving mode, a larger space is needed outside the accommodating cylinder for the blade to move so as to avoid the cabbage leaves when the cabbage heads are put in or released, on one hand, the vegetable leaves around the cabbage heads can block the movement of the blade to influence the reliability of the picking process, and on the other hand, when the cabbage heads are harvested in a vegetable field with denser common head, the surrounding cabbage heads can be damaged even; when a plurality of blades are arranged and move in a rotating mode, a closed cutting area in the following embodiment is difficult to enclose, and the cutting is realized by moving the plurality of blades, so that the cutting effect is better.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 4-11 in combination, the guide structure includes a slider 220 disposed on the blade 200 and a guide chute 121 disposed on the hollow end plate 120, the slider 220 being disposed in cooperation within the guide chute 121; the transmission structure comprises a transmission pin 210 arranged on the blade 200 and a U-shaped groove 301 arranged on the rotary assembly 300, wherein the transmission pin 210 is matched and arranged in the U-shaped groove 301, and the extension line of the U-shaped groove 301 is intersected with the rotary central axis of the rotary assembly 300.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 4-11 in combination, the blade 200 has a first surface 200a facing the hollow endplate 120 and a second surface 200b facing away from the hollow endplate 120, the slider 220 is disposed on the first surface 200a, and the drive pin 210 is disposed on the second surface 200 b. In this way, it is equivalent to distributing the guiding structure and the driving structure on different surfaces by using the thickness of the blade 200 itself, so that the guiding structure and the driving structure do not interfere with each other.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 4 to 11 in combination, the swing assembly 300 includes an upper swing plate 310 and a lower swing plate 320, the upper swing plate 310 is a hollow plate, the upper swing plate 310 is concentrically fitted around the accommodating cylinder 110, and the driving mechanism 400 is disposed between the accommodating cylinder 110 and the upper swing plate 310; the lower rotating plate 320 is concentrically arranged with the upper rotating plate 310, and the upper rotating plate 310 is fixedly connected with the lower rotating plate 320; wherein the hollow end plate 120 is positioned between the upper and lower turn plates 310 and 320 such that the entire turn assembly 300 is hung on the hollow end plate 120, and the lower turn plate 320 is provided with a hollow area corresponding to the open area, and the blade 200 is positioned between the hollow end plate 120 and one of the turn plates.
At this time, if the blades are positioned between the hollow end plate and the lower rotating plate, the upper rotating plate 310, the hollow end plate 120, the blades 200, and the lower rotating plate 320 are stacked and distributed from top to bottom. In this way, the hollow end plate 120 can be used to support the swing assembly 300 without additional parts, which is advantageous for reducing the cost. And the hollow end plate 120 is placed between the two swing plates by combining the upper swing plate 310 and the lower swing plate 320, the entire swing assembly 300 can be reliably positioned.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 4 to 11 in combination, the outer contour of the blade 200 includes a cutting edge 201 corresponding to the cutting edge and a back edge 202 forming an included angle with the cutting edge 201, the intersection of the cutting edge 201 and the back edge 202 is a tip of the blade 200, and the limit travel position of each tip gathering inwards coincides with the rotation central axis of the fixture base 100; the edge 201 of any blade 200 is always in abutment or contact with the back 202 of an adjacent blade 200, such that the edge of each blade 200 encloses a closed cutting area Q. By the structure, in the process that each blade 200 moves along the guiding direction under the drive of the rotary component 300, each blade 200 can always enclose a closed cutting area, in the cutting process, the roots and stems of the cabbage leaf heads are uniformly cut everywhere, and the phenomenon of clamping stagnation in the cutting process is avoided. When the cutting edge D of each blade 200 coincides with the center axis of rotation, the closed area between the blades 200 disappears, and the root of the cabbage head can be completely cut off, so that the root is cut off without drawing in the subsequent step, and the blade 200 does not need to bear the drawing force of the cantilever, thereby being more advantageous in improving the life of the blade 200, compared with the half-cut method.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 7, the upper rotating plate 310 and the lower rotating plate 320 are connected by a connecting portion 321, the connecting portion 321 is uniformly distributed along the circumferential direction of the lower rotating plate 320, and a dodging space 300a for dodging the blade 200 is formed between two adjacent connecting portions 321 along the circumferential direction; referring to fig. 8, the blade 200 is also provided with an arc profile 203 for avoiding the connecting portion 321, the arc profile 203 is connected between the cutting edge 201 and the back edge 202, and when the stroke position of the blade 200 is an outward-retracted limit position, a part of the arc profile 203 extends out of the avoidance space 300a and extends out of the swivel assembly 300. The avoidance space 300a can avoid the cutter, is convenient for observing the action process of the cutter, and is beneficial to timely finding out the abnormality when the cutter is abnormal in action; the arc profile 203 of the cutter enables the local part of the cutter penetrating out of the avoidance space 300a to rapidly leave the blade when touching the blade at the periphery of the cabbage head, reduces the impact of the blade striking the cutter, and ensures the harvesting reliability. In addition, the partial extension of the knife out of the relief space 300a is beneficial to keeping the overall swing assembly 300 small in size and reducing interference of the clamp with the external blade during harvesting. In fig. 7, the connecting portion 321 is integrally formed with the lower swing plate 320, and the connecting portion 321 and the upper swing plate 310 are connected by a fastener such as a bolt.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 4 and 5, the driving mechanism 400 includes a motor 410, a driving gear 420, and a driven rack 430, the motor 410 is mounted on an outer wall of the receiving cylinder 110, the driving gear 420 is connected with the motor 410, the driven rack 430 is disposed on the swing assembly 300, and the driven rack 430 is engaged with the driving gear 420. In actual implementation, the driven rack 430 may also be replaced with a driven gear ring.
In fig. 4 and 5, the driven rack 430 is disposed on the upper swing plate 310 of the swing assembly 300.
When the picking action is required to be executed, the processor sends an instruction to the motor, so that the picking action is controlled.
