Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to an improvement of a tobacco residual trunk harvester.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, the treatment of tobacco stems has been emphasized in practice, but in recent years, especially from the viewpoint of disease prevention, it has become emphasized that tobacco stems should be completely removed without leaving them in the workplace. Came. Moreover, since the shortage of compost raw materials has become a problem, it has been desired to transport them to another place and reuse them as a compost raw material there. By doing so, we will try to prevent exhaustion of the workplace and make effective use of waste materials.

Therefore, conventionally, the base part of the tobacco residual trunk was cut,
The upper part of the tobacco residual trunk was removed from the workplace and the root part was left untouched.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, it has been found that if the root portion of the tobacco residual trunk is left in the workplace as in the conventional case, the root portion adversely affects the workplace.

Therefore, in view of the above-mentioned conventional technique, the present invention can remove all tobacco residual trunks together with the root portion of the tobacco residual trunks, and more completely treat the tobacco residual trunks. It is intended to provide a tobacco surplus harvester.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a screw type root extractor, a conveyor, an earth removing device, a feed roller, a cutter, in order from the front to the rear of the frame.
A guide, damper, and multiple outlets are arranged, and the scouring device arranges a large number of rods in a drum shape at predetermined intervals so that the soil attached to the tobacco residual trunk falls between the conveyor and the feed roller. The cigarette is configured to hit the residual stem of the tobacco during rotation, and further, the configuration is such that the residual stem cut material cut by the cutter is sent to any one of the plurality of outlets by switching the damper. The main subject is the remaining trunk harvester.

Action and effect of the invention Since the screw type root extractor is arranged in front of the frame, the operation work of the harvester can be performed very easily. Also, since the screw type root extractor is adopted, the root cutting phenomenon can be avoided. This is extremely effective in that it completely removes the root portion of the tobacco residual trunk from the workplace.

Furthermore, not only is the tobacco residual trunk removed, but it is also cut by a cutter behind the frame, so it can be secured as it is as a raw material for compost.

Further, since the screw type root extractor is used, even if there are a few weeds in the work place, root removal can be performed extremely effectively.

Although the soil is removed by the conveyor, the amount is greatly limited due to the structural restrictions of the conveyor. Especially, since a large amount of soil is attached to the root part of the tobacco residual trunk, there is a limit to the soil removal by using the conveyor alone. According to the present invention, the soil scavenger having a special structure works effectively, and the soil of the entire remaining trunk (especially the root portion) can be dropped downward.

Since the residual trunk is cut by the cutter after sufficient soil removal, the root of the residual trunk can be reliably cut without being adversely affected by the soil.

Furthermore, continuous work can be ensured by combining a damper and a plurality of outlets. For example, the path is selected in a desired direction by the damper, the cigarette residual trunk cut product is guided to the outlet opened by the damper, and the tobacco residual trunk cut product is accommodated in a bag attached to the outlet. When the amount of cut pieces of the remaining trunk contained in the bag reaches a predetermined amount, the damper is switched to enter the bag attached to the other outlet. Then, while the remaining tobacco cut products are contained in the other bag, the filled bag is closed and removed from the outlet, and the empty bag is attached to the bag again. Such work can be performed alternately while the harvester is running.

Example A screw type root extractor 2 is provided in the front part of a frame 1.
The vertical position of the screw type root extractor 2 can be adjusted in the vertical direction by the adjusting means 3.

Following the screw type root remover 2, a conveyor 4 is arranged with a slight inclination. As illustrated in FIG. 2, this conveyor 4 has a pair of chains 5 and 6 arranged endlessly on both sides, and a large number of rods 7 are arranged at predetermined intervals between the chains 5 and 6. It is arranged for each. The chains 5 and 6 are driven to rotate in a predetermined direction by sprockets.

A pair of pressing rollers 8 and 9 is provided above the conveyor 4. These pressing rollers 8 and 9 are rotatably arranged at both ends of the swing arm 10. Swing arm 10
Can swing about a fulcrum 11.

A scouring device 12 is arranged at the upper end of the conveyor 4. The earth eliminator 12 is constituted by, for example, a large number of rods 15 arranged in a drum shape at regular intervals between a pair of disks 13 and 14. When the earth removing device 12 is rotated in a predetermined direction, the round bars 15 hit the root portion of the tobacco residual trunk, and the earth is dropped at that time.

Subsequent to the scouring device 12, feed rollers 17 and 18 are arranged. The lower feed roller 17 is arranged at a predetermined position and rotates at that position, and the upper feed roller 18 not only rotates but also moves vertically. The upper roller 18 is not forced to move in the vertical direction, but is biased downward by the own weight of the feed roller 18, and when the tobacco residual trunk arrives there, it is fed by the thickness of the residual trunk passing through. The roller 18 can be slightly moved upward against the weight of the roller 18.

A cutter 20 is arranged immediately after the feed rollers 17 and 18. The cutter 20 is entirely covered with a drum-shaped casing 21, and a rotary shaft 22 is arranged inside the casing 21. As shown in FIG. Rotating plate 2 near the part
3 and 24 are fixed, respectively, and their rotating plates 2
Moving blades 25 are fixed to both ends of 3, 24, respectively. A scraping blade 26 is provided next to the moving blade 25. A fixed blade 28, which functions as a receiving blade corresponding to the movable blade 25, is fixed to the casing 21. The fixed blade 28 is disposed adjacent to the above-described feed rollers 17 and 18 and at an obliquely lower inlet of the casing 21.

Further, a discharge path 29 is provided obliquely above the casing 21, and the scraps of the residual trunk scraped up by the scraping blades 26 are scraped up into the discharge path 29. A guide 30 is arranged in connection with the outlet of the discharge path 29. The guide 30 has a substantially box shape, and an upper portion thereof is open, and the guide 30 is connected to the discharge path 29 so as to receive the residual cut material coming from the discharge path 29.

As shown in FIG. 5, a damper 31 is disposed in the middle of the guide 30, and two outlets 32 and 33 are branched from the damper 31. The lower end of the damper 31 is fixed to the rotary shaft 36, and the rotary shaft 36
Has one end protruding outside the guide 30, and a lever (not shown) is fixed to one end of the rotary shaft 34 of the rotary shaft 34. By operating the lever, the damper 31 can be switched in any direction. It has become.

On the other hand, a bag 34 is provided at each of the two outlets 32 and 33 described above.
Can be attached and removed freely. It is desirable that these bags 34 be net bags so that it can be confirmed how much the trunk-cutting trunks are inside.

The engine, the transmission mechanism, the hydraulic motor, the hydraulic system, and the like may be conventional ones, and thus the description thereof will be omitted.

The operation of the above tobacco residual trunk harvester will be described.

First, depending on the situation of the work site, the screw type root extractor 2 is adjusted to a desired vertical position. After that, the engine of the harvester is started, and the screw type root extractor 2, the conveyor 4, the earth removing device 12, the feed rollers 17 and 18, and the cutter 20 are operated. Then, the screw type root extractor 2 is set on the ridge having the tobacco residual trunk. Then, the harvester runs across the remaining trunk and runs between the ridges. At that time, the screw type root extractor 2 bites the root portion of the tobacco residual trunk in the soil. The root portion of the tobacco residual trunk is bitten into the screw rooter 2 and drawn toward the conveyor 4. As a result, the remaining trunk of the cigarette collapses, and at the same time, the conveyor 4 is forced to move.
Is transported diagonally upward. At this time, the pressing rollers 8 and 9 press the remaining trunk of the tobacco and perform some soil removal.

The remaining tobacco trunk is further vigorously sent to the scouring device 12 by the conveyor 4. Then, the soil remover 12 knocks down the soil of the tobacco residual trunk, especially at the root portion thereof. After that, the root portion of the tobacco residual trunk is fed backward by the feed rollers 17 and 18 and reaches the cutter 20. Then, the tobacco residual trunk is cut by the moving blade 25 and the fixed blade 28 at predetermined intervals. For example, the cutting length is about 7 mm.

Such cutting (ie chopping) is performed,
Tobacco residual trunk cuttings are generated.

Such a tobacco residual trunk cut is vigorously scraped upward by the scraping blade 26. Then, it is discharged into the guide 30 through the discharge path 29. After that, the damper 31 selects a course in a desired direction, and the damper 3
It is accommodated in one bag 34 by being guided to the outlet 33 or 32 opened by 1.

In this way, when the amount of cut tobacco residual trunks stored in the bag 34 reaches a predetermined amount, the damper 31 is switched to enter the other bag 34. And the other bag 34
While accommodating the tobacco residual trunk cut product, the filled bag 34 is closed and removed from the outlet 32, and the empty bag 34 is attached thereto again. These operations are performed alternately while the harvester is running.
