Description

[Detailed description of the invention] <Industrial application field> This invention relates to a bean tree fixing device used when removing edamame pods from the beanstalk.

<Conventional technology> Generally, picking the edamame pods from the beanstalk (stem) was done manually by grasping one side of the beanstalk with one hand and picking off the fruited pods from the beanstalk with the other hand. This type of manual work is mainly carried out by elderly people, women, etc., and it requires a considerable amount of effort and causes great fatigue in the hands and arms.Therefore, there has been a demand for a simple fixture for fixing beans.

<Purpose of the invention> In view of the above, the purpose of this invention is to provide a bean tree fixing device that makes it easy to remove the pods with a simple operation.

<Summary of the invention> A clamping member with one toothed plate fixed to the base plate,
A wedge plate with a lever that rotates on the base plate is arranged to face the other clamping member with a toothed plate that can be tilted, and a spring that returns the other clamping member with a toothed plate to the base plate. It is placed on a board.

<Example> Hereinafter, the structure and usage mode will be explained based on FIGS. 1 to 4 showing an example of this invention.

B. Structure 1 shown in the figure is a flat base plate that is bolted onto an L-shaped member 2. Reference numeral 3 designates one toothed plate mounting member which is bolted onto the base plate 1 so that its position can be adjusted. Numeral 4 is a tooth plate which is bolted to the tooth plate attachment member 3 in an inclined manner with a pin 5 interposed at the lower end of the back surface, and has an uneven surface 4a carved on its front surface. 6 is the other tooth plate mounting member with spring washer 9
It is bolted onto the base plate 1 so as to be tiltable with the . Reference numeral 7 denotes a tooth plate bolted to the tooth plate attachment member 6 in an inclined manner with a pin 8 interposed at the lower end of the back surface, and an uneven surface 7a is carved on the front surface of the tooth plate. The uneven surfaces 4a and 7a are opposed to each other. Reference numeral 10 designates a wedge plate having an inclined surface 10a formed on its upper surface so as to be able to penetrate downward into the toothed plate mounting member 6, and is rotatably attached to the base plate 1 together with a lever 13 by a bolt shaft 11. . 12
is a bolt that screws the lever 13 onto the upper surface of the wedge plate 11. Numeral 14 is a bolt screwed onto the base plate 1 and the L-shaped member 2 in order to define the return position of the wedge plate 10. 15 is a coiled tension spring 16
Base plate 1, L-shaped member 2 to hang one end of
It is a locking bolt that is screwed into the holder. The other end of the tension spring 16 is firmly sandwiched between the toothed plate mounting member 6 and the back surface of the toothed plate 7, and is always biased to apply a tensile force to the toothed plate mounting member 6.

Incidentally, the L-shaped member 2 may be held in a substantially horizontal state using a vise or the like provided on a workbench owned by the farmer, or may be fixed to a suitable fixture. Further, the spring washer 9 may be replaced with a coiled compression spring or rubber.

(b) How to use The bean tree fixture having the above-mentioned configuration takes into account the thickness of the bean tree in advance and adjusts the uneven surface 4a to the uneven surface 7.
Adjust the distance (interval) between a. At this stage, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the tooth plate 4 and the tooth plate 7 are expanded into a V-shape, and the tip of the inclined surface 10a of the wedge plate 10 slightly penetrates below the tooth plate attachment member 6. I'll keep it.

Next, insert the beanstalk (not shown) held in one hand from above between tooth plate 4 and tooth plate 7, and then
3 clockwise from the position shown in FIG. 1 to the position shown in FIG.
Since the tip of 0a penetrates deeply below the tooth plate attachment member 6, the tooth plate attachment member 6 assumes a forward-leaning posture.
The tooth plate 4 and the tooth plate 7 are almost parallel to each other and clamp and fix the beans. In this state, use both hands to remove the pod from the bean tree.

Thereafter, when the lever 13 is rotated counterclockwise from the position shown in FIG. 3 to the position shown in FIG. In order to recover, he grabbed the bean tree with one hand and lifted it upwards, then carried it to a nearby dumping ground. Thereafter, the manual work of removing the pods from the beanstalk is repeated in the same manner as described above.

<Effects of the invention> As described above, the bean tree fixing device according to this invention allows the bean tree to be clamped and fixed and released by manual operation of the lever, and the pods had to be plucked from the bean tree with one hand. The old man was torn off with both hands.
The plucking work can be completed in a short time regardless of the woman.
Therefore, the effect is that fatigue of the hands and arms is significantly reduced.

In addition, instead of the above-mentioned work of picking off the pods, the present invention can be applied to other work modes, such as pushing the green soybeans directly from the pods with both hands.
