Abstract

The melon stem trimmer, mounted on a tractor three-point hitching system (1), has a pair of cutting discs (2) that can be adjusted for heihght and width by power cylinders (3, 4). It can also apply fertilisers to points behind the discs from containers (5) with electrically-operated and gravity feeders, and has a unit (7) with a pump (10) to deliver disinfectant to the discs through nozzles (11).

Description

<Desc/Clms Page number 1> <Desc / Clms Page number 1>

La présente invention concerne une machine agricole dont la fonction principale est d'écimer les bouts des rames de plants de melons, appelés tiges également, par un système de disques droits réglables de haut en bas (3) et de gauche à droite-droite à gauche (4). The present invention relates to an agricultural machine the main function of which is to trim the ends of the rows of melon plants, also called stems, by a system of straight discs adjustable from top to bottom (3) and from left to right-right to left (4).

De plus, ce système est couplé : - à un dispositif de localisation de fertilisants situé à l'arrière de ces disques (5). In addition, this system is coupled: - to a fertilizer location device located at the rear of these discs (5).

- à un dispositif de désinfection de ces disques comprenant une cuve de pulvérisation, pompe, jets (7. 1 0. 11).  - a device for disinfecting these discs comprising a spray tank, pump, jets (7. 1 0. 11).

L'écimage a pour but de stopper la pousse des plants de melons, de répartir la sève sur les bourgeons axillaires, en favorisant et en concentrant les floraisons, donc les nouaisons. Par voie de conséquence la maturité et la récolte sont groupées. Les fruits suivant ce principe se situent au final sous le feuillage concentré, à l'abri des coups de soleil. The aim of the topping is to stop the growth of the melon plants, to distribute the sap over the axillary buds, by promoting and concentrating the flowers, therefore the fruit sets. As a result, maturity and harvest are grouped. The fruits following this principle are ultimately located under the concentrated foliage, protected from sunburn.

Les écimages successifs au cours de la production, environ quatre, rééquilibrent en permanence le pied de part et d'autre jusqu'à la stabilité de ce dernier pour laisser au final un passage entre les rangs de vingt à trente centimètres facilitant la cueillette : confort du travail assuré et productivité augmentée
L'écimage quand il est pratiqué, est traditionnellement fait par les roues du tracteur enjambant le rang de melons, ou bien il est effectué à la main.
The successive toppings during production, around four, constantly rebalance the foot on both sides until the latter's stability to finally leave a passage between the rows of twenty to thirty centimeters facilitating picking: comfort assured work and increased productivity
The topping when it is practiced, is traditionally done by the tractor wheels spanning the row of melons, or it is done by hand.

Dans le premier cas les tiges sont mâchées mais non coupées net car les crampons des pneus n'appuient pas totalement sur l'ensemble du feuillage d'où un mauvais résultat par déséquilibre des plantes.  In the first case, the stems are chewed but not cut clean because the studs on the tires do not fully support all of the foliage, resulting in a poor result due to the imbalance of the plants.

Dans le second cas le travail est trop long et trop coûteux.  In the second case the work is too long and too expensive.

. Cette machine portée trois points (1) est conçue pour un rang, mais peut être envisagée et transposée de la même manière pour trois rangs. . This three-point machine (1) is designed for one row, but can be considered and transposed in the same way for three rows.

<Desc/Clms Page number 2> <Desc / Clms Page number 2>

Les disques (2) sont réglables en hauteur par vérins hydrauliques (3) pour corriger les différences de niveau de sol, mais aussi pour ne pas descendre trop profond, au risque de couper les racines qui sont situées à l'aplomb du feuillage. The discs (2) are adjustable in height by hydraulic cylinders (3) to correct the differences in soil level, but also not to go too deep, at the risk of cutting the roots which are located directly above the foliage.

De la même manière les disques (2) sont réglables par vérins hydrauliques de gauche à droite et de droite à gauche (4) pour les interventions successives au fur et à mesure de la progression de la plante ou en fonction des différences de pousse suivant la précocité des plantations. In the same way the discs (2) are adjustable by hydraulic cylinders from left to right and from right to left (4) for successive interventions as the plant progresses or according to differences in growth depending on the early planting.

Cette machine est équipée d'un distributeur de fertilisants électrique (5). Deux récipients (5) sont disposés de part et d'autre à l'arrière de machine. 1Is sont compartimentés (5) pour l'utilisation de différents types de fertilisants. Les fertilisants sont fractionnés et localisés en fonction des besoins des plantes. L'application se situe dans l'alignement des disques, à la verticale des racines, par gravité, pour plus d'efficacité : au bon moment et au bon endroit. This machine is equipped with an electric fertilizer distributor (5). Two containers (5) are arranged on either side at the rear of the machine. They are compartmentalized (5) for the use of different types of fertilizers. The fertilizers are divided and localized according to the needs of the plants. The application is located in line with the discs, vertical to the roots, by gravity, for more efficiency: at the right time and in the right place.

Traditionnellement la fertilisation se fait en plein et le plus souvent avant ou au moment de la plantation, donc décalée par rapport aux besoins. Traditionally fertilization is done in full and most often before or at the time of planting, therefore offset from the needs.

Cette machine est équipée également d'un système de désinfection des disques par un dispositif cuve (7), pompe (10), jets (11) qui pulvérise un désinfectant soit en continu ou non pour éviter tout risque de contamination par la sève, accumulée sur les disques, d'un pied à l'autre, de quelconque virus, transmis essentiellement par les pucerons. This machine is also equipped with a disc disinfection system by a tank (7), pump (10), jets (11) device which sprays a disinfectant either continuously or not to avoid any risk of contamination by accumulated sap on the discs, from one foot to the other, of any virus, transmitted mainly by aphids.
