Description

本発明は、果実、特にブルーベリー、ラズベリー、ブラックベリーなどのベリー類、梅、李などの小果実の果実収穫装置に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a fruit harvesting apparatus for fruits, particularly berries such as blueberries, raspberries and blackberries, and small fruits such as plums and li.

どの果実を例にしても同じであるので、ブルーベリーの収穫装置を例に先行する特許文献を辿ると、特許文献１では、果実の果皮の色、着生している果実の粘弾性を判定する手段と、所定の着生強度以下の果実を採取・収穫する手段として、所定の吸着力で果実を吸着して引っ張り採取する装置が示され、同文献には、更に従来例として、樹木に振動を与えて果実を落とす振動収穫機が示されている。果皮の色を判定するために画像を取るカメラ装置と、果実を吸着する装置が備えているが、吸着するには、果実の位置を出したり、果実の形状に対応した吸着部の対応が必要で、装置に精細な構成対応が必須となり、高価な装置となる。又、振動収穫機は、振動が枝を通じて、果実に伝わるが、枝の状態や、果実の状態により、果実に係る振動にばらつきがでて、未熟果実が落ちたり、成熟果実が残ったり、安定した収穫ができない不都合がある。
特許文献２には、自動収穫装置が示されているが、自動収穫装置の目線から果実が葉等に隠れてしまうことを回避する目的で、葉等を搖動させて画像取し、収穫する装置が示されている。搖動自体は、果実を落下させるものではない。
特許文献３、特許文献４には、不要な葉を摘み取るために、空気を吸い込み吐き出す装置の吸い込み口に葉を摘み取る回転刃を備えたものが提示されている。吸い込まれ、回転刃で切断されバラバラになった葉の小片は掃出し口から排出される。果実の収穫に使えるものでは無いことは明らかである。
特許文献５には、果実を吸着するバキュームパッドと果実を覆うケース、柄を切断する切断装置とその誘導を行う装置が示されている。吸引という手段では、文献１と同じ欠点を有する。どちらかというと、大きな果実に適した装置である。 Since the same applies to any fruit as an example, tracing the patent documents preceding the example of a blueberry harvesting device, in Patent Document 1, the color of the peel of the fruit and the viscous elasticity of the growing fruit are determined. As a means and a means for collecting and harvesting fruits having a predetermined settling strength or less, a device for adsorbing and pulling and collecting fruits with a predetermined adsorption force is shown, and the same document further vibrates a tree as a conventional example. A vibrating harvester is shown that gives and drops the fruit. It is equipped with a camera device that takes an image to determine the color of the pericarp and a device that adsorbs the fruit, but in order to adsorb it, it is necessary to determine the position of the fruit and to support the adsorption part corresponding to the shape of the fruit. Therefore, it is indispensable to support the detailed configuration of the device, which makes the device expensive. In the vibration harvester, the vibration is transmitted to the fruit through the branches, but the vibration related to the fruit varies depending on the state of the branch and the state of the fruit, and the immature fruit falls, the mature fruit remains, and it is stable. There is an inconvenience that the harvest cannot be done.
Patent Document 2 shows an automatic harvesting device, but in order to prevent the fruits from being hidden by the leaves or the like from the line of sight of the automatic harvesting device, the device that shakes the leaves or the like to take an image and harvests the leaves. It is shown. The sway itself does not drop the fruit.
Patent Document 3 and Patent Document 4 present a device provided with a rotary blade for picking leaves at the suction port of a device for sucking and discharging air in order to pick unnecessary leaves. The small pieces of leaves that are sucked in and cut by the rotary blade and separated are discharged from the sweep port. It is clear that it cannot be used for fruit harvesting.
Patent Document 5 discloses a vacuum pad for adsorbing fruits, a case for covering the fruits, a cutting device for cutting the handle, and a device for guiding the cutting device. The means of suction has the same drawbacks as in Document 1. If anything, it is a device suitable for large fruits.

特許第６０１５９０４号Patent No. 6015904 特開２０１１－２２９４０６JP 2011-229406 特開平７－２０Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-20 特公平７－８９７８６Special fair 7-89786 特許第２５４８８２９号Patent No. 2548829

本発明にかかる果実収穫装置では、果実に応力を与える手段として、特にエアブロー等、作業者に危険性のない気体流を使う。図１は、本発明にかかる果実収穫装置の一実施態様を示す図である。気体流発生装置１１０は、エアブロワ―等の名称で知られていて、空気入口１１１から空気を吸入し、動力部１１２で高速・高圧のエアとして空気出口１１３から押し出す。動力部１１２では、外部からの電源、又は充電池による電源、又は内燃機関による動力により、空気を圧縮又は及び高速の流れとして押し出すものであり、技術的には良く知られているので使用できる。
尚、気体流発生装置１１０を作業者の肩に掛ける便宜のため、肩掛１１４を備えるとよい。
気体流発生装置１１０の空気出口１１３からの気体流は果実に向かって気体流を吐き出す気体流放射手段１３０に管等の導管１２０で接続、或いは、一体形成される。気体流放射装置１３０は、筒先１３１の開口部１３２からエアガンのように気体流を吐き出すもので、気体流の流速又は及び圧力を調整できるハンドルなどの気体流操作手段１３３を備えると好都合である。尚、気体流の流速又は及び圧力を時間的に変化（断続を含む）するモード切替手段１３４を備えて、気体流を変化させると、果実に係る気体流圧が時間的に変わることで、果実が柄から容易に取れることに寄与する。
尚、気体流放射装置１３０を手で揺らせて、筒先１３１からの気体流を果実に当てたり、外したりすると、応力を断続する効果と同じことができる。
尚、気体流放射装置１３０には、開口部１３２から気体流が噴き出す方向（果実が吹き飛ぶ方向）に対向して塞ぐように果実を受ける果実収容部１４０が備えられる。果実収容部１４０の果実が当る部分は、果実が傷まないように柔らかに受ける受け具１４１を備えるとよい。例えば、受け具１４１は、スポンジを張り付けたり、果実が抜けていかない細かい穴のネットで構成することができる。果実収容部１４０全体は、気体流放射装置１３０に支持体１４２により支持されている。 In the fruit harvesting apparatus according to the present invention, a gas flow that is not dangerous to the operator, such as an air blow, is used as a means for applying stress to the fruit. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an embodiment of a fruit harvesting apparatus according to the present invention. The gas flow generator 110 is known by a name such as an air blower, sucks air from an air inlet 111, and pushes it out from an air outlet 113 as high-speed, high-pressure air by a power unit 112. The power unit 112 compresses air or pushes it out as a high-speed flow by a power source from the outside, a power source from a rechargeable battery, or a power from an internal combustion engine, and is technically well known and can be used.
For the convenience of hanging the gas flow generator 110 on the shoulder of the operator, it is preferable to provide the shoulder hook 114.
The gas flow from the air outlet 113 of the gas flow generator 110 is connected to or integrally formed with a gas flow radiating means 130 that discharges the gas flow toward the fruit by a conduit 120 such as a pipe. The gas flow radiating device 130 discharges a gas flow from the opening 132 of the cylinder tip 131 like an air gun, and it is convenient to include a gas flow operating means 133 such as a handle capable of adjusting the flow velocity or pressure of the gas flow. It should be noted that the mode switching means 134 for changing the flow velocity or pressure of the gas flow with time (including intermittent) is provided, and when the gas flow is changed, the gas flow pressure related to the fruit changes with time, so that the fruit Contributes to easy removal from the handle.
If the gas flow radiating device 130 is shaken by hand and the gas flow from the cylinder tip 131 is applied to or removed from the fruit, the same effect as the effect of intermittent stress can be obtained.
The gas flow radiating device 130 is provided with a fruit accommodating portion 140 that receives fruits so as to face the direction in which the gas flow is ejected from the opening 132 (the direction in which the fruits are blown off) and close the gas flow radiating device 130. The portion of the fruit accommodating portion 140 where the fruit hits may be provided with a receiver 141 that receives the fruit softly so as not to damage the fruit. For example, the receiver 141 can be made up of a net of fine holes to which a sponge is attached or the fruit does not come out. The entire fruit container 140 is supported by the gas flow radiating device 130 by the support 142.

図２は、本発明にかかる果実収穫装置の他の実施態様を示す図である。
図１との違いのみ述べると、気体流放射装置１３０に供給される気体流は、この例では、ボンベ２１０に収容された圧縮気体流（圧縮空気等）が、圧力調整器・開閉栓２３０と、導管２２０を介して供給されている。尚、ボンベ２１０は作業者が携帯しないで、導管２２０を長く配管した構成とすることもできる。 FIG. 2 is a diagram showing another embodiment of the fruit harvesting apparatus according to the present invention.
Speaking only of the difference from FIG. 1, the gas flow supplied to the gas flow radiating device 130 is, in this example, the compressed gas flow (compressed air or the like) housed in the cylinder 210 is the pressure regulator / opening / closing plug 230. , Is supplied via a conduit 220. It should be noted that the cylinder 210 may be configured such that the conduit 220 is piped for a long time without being carried by the operator.

図３は、本発明にかかる果実収穫装置の気体流放射装置部の一実施態様を示す図である。
気体流放射装置１３０の開口部１３２に繋がる筒先１３１が作業者の指の操作で自由に曲がるように筒部に曲がり自在部３１０を有するものである。 FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an embodiment of a gas flow radiating device unit of the fruit harvesting device according to the present invention.
The cylinder tip 131 connected to the opening 132 of the gas flow radiating device 130 has a bendable portion 310 in the cylinder portion so that the cylinder tip 131 can be freely bent by the operation of an operator's finger.

図４は、本発明にかかる果実収穫装置の果実収容部の一実施態様を示す図である。
４－Ａにおいて、支持体１４２は、省略して示していない。ここ例では、図１で説明したことと重複するが、果実収容部１４０の果実が当る部分は、果実が傷まないように柔らかに受ける受け具１４１を備えている。例えば、受け具１４１は、スポンジを張り付けたり、果実が抜けていかない細かい穴のネットで構成することができると記述したことに当たる。尚、受け具１４１は、この図のように袋から突出した構成である必要はなく、柔軟な袋自体でもよい。
４－Ｂにおいて、果実収容部１４０は、外容器４１０の中に取り外し可能な内容器４２０を備えた例である。
４－Ｃにおいて、外容器４１０から外した内容器４２０は、収穫した果実（丸印で示す）を他の容器に移すことが容易にできる。尚、内容器４２０には取っ手４２１が付いていると便利である。 FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an embodiment of a fruit accommodating portion of the fruit harvesting apparatus according to the present invention.
In 4-A, the support 142 is not shown by omission. In this example, which overlaps with that described with reference to FIG. 1, the portion of the fruit accommodating portion 140 where the fruit hits is provided with a receiver 141 which is softly received so as not to damage the fruit. For example, it corresponds to the description that the receiver 141 can be composed of a sponge attached or a net of fine holes through which fruits do not come out. The receiver 141 does not have to have a structure protruding from the bag as shown in this figure, and may be a flexible bag itself.
In 4-B, the fruit container 140 is an example in which the removable inner container 420 is provided in the outer container 410.
In 4-C, the inner container 420 removed from the outer container 410 can easily transfer the harvested fruit (indicated by a circle) to another container. It is convenient that the inner container 420 has a handle 421.

図５は、本発明にかかる果実収穫装置の果実収容部の別の一実施態様を示す図である。
図５は、内容器４２０の別の形態を示す。図４の内容器４２０は、１つの容器で外容器４１０に収まる形状であった。図５では、内容器４２０は、複数の容器で構成され、互いの中に納まって、広げると５－Ａのような形状で外容器４１０に収納され、内側の容器が果実で満たされるとその容器のみ取り出すことができ、次の容器に連続して果実を採取できる効果がある。尚、内容器４２０は、５－Ｂに示すように、使用する前には、押しつぶして（折り曲げて）小さな形状で扱える。従って、容器はビニルや紙のような形状変え自在の袋で構成されることが好ましい。 FIG. 5 is a diagram showing another embodiment of the fruit accommodating portion of the fruit harvesting apparatus according to the present invention.
FIG. 5 shows another form of the inner container 420. The inner container 420 in FIG. 4 had a shape that fits in the outer container 410 in one container. In FIG. 5, the inner container 420 is composed of a plurality of containers, which are housed in each other and are stored in the outer container 410 in a shape like 5-A when unfolded, and when the inner container is filled with fruits, the inner container 420 is stored. Only one container can be taken out, and there is an effect that fruits can be continuously collected in the next container. As shown in 5-B, the inner container 420 can be crushed (folded) and handled in a small shape before use. Therefore, it is preferable that the container is composed of a bag that can be freely changed in shape such as vinyl or paper.

図６は、本発明にかかる果実収穫装置の使用状態の一実施態様を示す図である。
作業者は、図１から図５で示した果実収穫装置を携行し、ブルーベリー等の果実に向けて気体流放射装置１３０の筒先１３１を向け、開口部１３２から気体流を吹き付ける。その強さは、気体流発生装置１１０や気体流の流速（又は流量）を調整できるハンドルなどの気体流操作手段１３３や圧力調整器・開閉栓２３０、モード切替手段１３４で調整される。
作業者は、果実の色や状態を見て、これに対応した操作ができるため、取れるべき果実が取れない場合は、気体流応力を強める操作ができる。
果実は柄から外れると、気体流の押圧方向に飛ばされる。その方向には、果実収容部１４０があり、受け具１４１に当って、果実は果実収容部１４０の容器内に落ちて貯まる。 FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an embodiment of a usage state of the fruit harvesting apparatus according to the present invention.
The worker carries the fruit harvesting device shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, directs the tube tip 131 of the gas flow radiating device 130 toward the fruit such as blueberries, and blows the gas flow from the opening 132. The strength is adjusted by a gas flow operating means 133 such as a gas flow generator 110 or a handle capable of adjusting the flow velocity ( or flow rate ) of the gas flow, a pressure regulator / opening / closing plug 230, and a mode switching means 134.
Since the operator can see the color and condition of the fruit and perform an operation corresponding to this, if the fruit to be removed cannot be obtained, the operation of increasing the gas flow stress can be performed.
When the fruit deviates from the stalk, it is blown in the pressing direction of the gas flow. In that direction, there is a fruit container 140, which hits the receiver 141 and the fruit falls and accumulates in the container of the fruit container 140.

次に、気体流応力としての目安を述べる。
風量１ｍ３／分（１．７×１０５ｃｍ３／秒）のブロワ―では、これを５ｃｍ角（２５ｃｍ２）の開口部から吹き出すと、０．０６８×１０５ｃｍ／秒となり、これは、６８ｍ／秒
の風速であるので、滅多にないほど強力な台風並みの気体流圧を果実に及ぼす。従って、風量の調整や開口部の調整などの調整により、強弱を調整し果実を枝の柄から外すことができることは言うまでもない。 Next, a guideline for gas flow stress will be described.
With a blower with an air volume of 1 m 3 / min (1.7 x 10 5 cm 3 / sec), when this is blown out from a 5 cm square (25 cm 2 ) opening, it becomes 0.068 x 10 5 cm / sec, which is With a wind speed of 68 m / sec, it exerts a typhoon-like gas flow pressure on the fruits, which is rarely strong. Therefore, it goes without saying that the strength can be adjusted and the fruit can be removed from the handle of the branch by adjusting the air volume and the opening.

尚、応力を果実に加えるための行動は、小規模栽培向けに安価な装置にしたい場合は、人為的に行うこともできるが、大規模栽培向けには、果実を付けた枝を観測して、機械操作により行うこともできる。この場合は、果実収容部は、一体とせず、栽培畝に沿って衝立を有する樋を備えることもできる。
尚、気体流に水も使用できるが、水は跳ね返り作業者および、周囲を濡らし、栽培地を水浸しにするので、気体に比べ好ましくない。
図面で手持ちの小規模な果実収穫装置を主に示したが、大型の移動装置に気体流を発生、且つ、吹き付ける気体流放射装置を搭載することも可能である。図７の７－Ｂには、このような一例を示す。車輪を持った移動装置７２０には、運転操作と吹き付け操作のための操作ハンドル７２１、これとともに水平回転及び垂直伸縮手段７２２及び水平回転及び垂直伸縮手段７２２に取りついた気体流放射装置１３０がある。勿論、示してないが、気体流発生装置１１０他必要な手段も、同体又は別体で備えている。
又、果実収容部は、気体流を吹き付ける気体流放射装置と一体としないで、果実栽培の木に沿って設けることも可能である。図７の７－Ａには、その状況に対応するものである。果実収容部７１０は、図のように、木に沿って設けてある。又は、木毎に設けてもよい。従って、このように広範な構成が可能である。 The action to apply stress to the fruit can be done artificially if you want to use an inexpensive device for small-scale cultivation, but for large-scale cultivation, observe the branches with fruits. , It can also be done by machine operation. In this case, the fruit accommodating portion may be provided with a gutter having a tsuitate along the cultivation ridge instead of being integrated.
Although water can be used for the gas flow, it is not preferable to gas because the water rebounds and wets the surroundings and floods the cultivated area.
Although the drawing mainly shows a small-scale fruit harvesting device on hand, it is also possible to mount a gas flow radiating device that generates and blows a gas flow on a large mobile device. 7-B of FIG. 7 shows such an example. The moving device 720 with wheels includes an operating handle 721 for driving and spraying operations, along with a gas flow radiating device 130 attached to the horizontal rotation and vertical expansion and contraction means 722 and the horizontal rotation and vertical expansion and contraction means 722. .. Of course, although not shown, the gas flow generator 110 and other necessary means are also provided in the same body or separately.
Further, the fruit accommodating portion can be provided along the fruit growing tree without being integrated with the gas flow radiating device that blows the gas flow. 7-A of FIG. 7 corresponds to the situation. The fruit accommodating portion 710 is provided along the tree as shown in the figure. Alternatively, it may be provided for each tree. Therefore, such a wide range of configurations is possible.

以上のように本発明に果実収穫装置は、その場で調整可能な気体流応力により果実を柄から外し、吹き飛ばした方向に存在する果実収容部により、傷を付けずに収穫できるので、産業上利用して極めて好都合である。 As described above, in the present invention, the fruit harvesting apparatus can remove the fruit from the handle by the gas flow stress that can be adjusted on the spot, and can harvest the fruit without damaging it by the fruit accommodating portion existing in the direction of blowing off. It is extremely convenient to use.
