Description

The utility model relates to agriculture and can be used in the technique for collecting Colorado beetles and other harmful insects.

The action of the device takes into account the peculiarities of the Colorado potato beetle weakly attached to the leaves and stems of plants and is easy to crumble with the slightest shaking.

A device for collecting and destroying a Colorado potato beetle is known, comprising a frame on wheels, made arcuate and equipped with guides for crimping potato stems at the root, drives made with a recess above the wheel axis and having a pest chopper, and a divider in the form of a biconvex lens in horizontal section, installed on the frame symmetrically to the longitudinal axis of the device, pest shredders made in the form of a pair of gears mounted on the bottom in the recess of the drives coaxially with the wheels, one of the pole the wren is rigidly fixed to the axis of the wheel (RF Patent No. 2056105, IPC 7 A01M 5/04, publ. March 20, 1996).

The device consists of an arcuate frame with wheels. Drives are mounted on the frame. Elastic beaters are attached to the vertical walls of the drive, perpendicular to the horizontal axis of the device. Guides are installed in front of the drive. A divider is installed on the frame symmetrically to the longitudinal axis of the device. At the bottom of the drive coaxial with the wheels mounted gear choppers of beetles. A leash is attached to the frame.

A known device for collecting and destroying the Colorado potato beetle works as follows. The device behind the leash is moved at a uniform speed along the row-spacing. Guides compress potato stems at the root. The divider with a sharp end pushes and tilts the stalks of potatoes over the drives. Elastic beaters, striking the stems and leaves of potatoes, shake off the beetles and larvae into the drive. Pests roll down the inclined walls of the drive to the bottom. Beetles and larvae are destroyed when they fall into a gear chopper.

The known device for collecting and destroying the Colorado potato beetle has disadvantages.

The device allows you to collect Colorado beetles from only one row of potatoes, as it relies on two wheels that are rolled along the aisle. In this regard, the device cannot be used on large potato plantations, since it is impossible to increase the width of the capture.

The divider of the known device, made in the form of a biconvex lens in horizontal section, with a sharp end pushes and tilts the potato stalks over the drives, while not shaking the potato stalks.

Elastic beaters are attached to the vertical walls of the drive of the known device, which, hitting the stems and leaves of the potato, not only shake the beetles in the drive, but also damage the stems and leaves of the potato. In addition, the description indicates that the elastic beaters are mounted on the vertical walls of the drives. But if the beaters, then they have the ability to rotate, and this will not only damage the leaves and stems, but winding on the beater, which will pull the potato stems from the soil.

Some of the bugs that showered from the leaves and stalks of potatoes fall not only into the drive, but also onto the surface of the divider, and then onto the soil of the row of potatoes, since the divider is made in the form of a biconvex lens in horizontal section.

Also known is a device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle, containing a frame on wheels, equipped with guides for crimping potato stems at the root, drives made with a recess above the axis of the wheel and having a divider mounted on the frame symmetrically to the longitudinal axis of the device. The divider is made in the form of a bell made of a central cone and parts of truncated cones with different base diameters and mounted on a square shaft. (RF patent No. 2469553, "Device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle", declared. 06/20/2011, publ. 12/20/2012).

The known device provides the ability to shake the stems of potatoes due to the design of the divider. An increase in the collection of the Colorado potato beetle is achieved.

The known device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle consists of a frame that is hung in front of a row tractor. The frame rests on the support wheels. Drives are mounted on the frame. On the frame, fixed drives are located in the rows of the processed potatoes. Between drives are ridges with potato plants placed. Drives are mounted on the frame with the possibility of changing their position, since potato cultivation technologies provide 60, 70 and 90 cm row spacings.

At the front of the drives installed rails. Between the drives in the middle of the ridges symmetrically to the longitudinal axis of the device is installed a divider. The divider is attached to the frame with racks. Racks are fixed to the frame with the help of ladders. Thus, it is possible to move the divider along the frame and set it in the middle of the ridges when cultivating potatoes with 60, 70 or 90 cm row spacing.

The divider is made in the form of a bell and consists of conical parts mounted on a square shaft. The central conical part is attached to the shaft by a threaded connection. The conical parts are mounted on a square shaft and fixed with your fingers.

A device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle is mounted on a frame that rests on the support wheels. A frame with a device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle is hung in front of a row tractor. A cultivator-hiller with interchangeable working bodies is hung on the rear linkage of a row-crop tractor.

The device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle works simultaneously during inter-row cultivation, hilling potatoes and applying mineral fertilizers.

When working a row unit, drives are moving at a uniform speed along the row-spacing. Guides compress potato stems at the root. The divider with the sharp end of the conical part pushes and tilts the stalks of potatoes over the drives. Extendable and tilted stems slide along the conical part, and then fall into the depressions formed by the cylindrical surface of the part and the conical part of the divider. In this case, shaking of potato stems and Colorado potato beetles, as well as larvae and other insects, come off the stems and fall into the drive. The conical part of the divider pushes and tilts the stalks of potatoes over the drives. Colorado beetles and larvae fall into the drive. The expandable and tilted stems of the potato glide along the conical part of the divider, and then fall into the depressions formed by the cylindrical surface of the conical part and the conical part of the divider. In this case, shaking of potato stems occurs and Colorado potato beetles and larvae fall into the drive. The expandable and tilted stalks of potatoes slide along the conical part of the divider, and then shaking occurs, since the zone of the conical part of the divider ends. Potato stalks are shaken, Colorado beetles and larvae fall into the drive. Colorado beetles and larvae are manually removed from drives.

However, the known device for collecting Colorado beetles has disadvantages.

Colorado potato beetles, as well as other harmful insects that crumble from the leaves and stalks of potatoes with the slightest shaking, fall not only into the drive, but also onto the conical surface of the truncated cones, on which they slide and then fall onto the soil of a row of potatoes.

When performing a divider with the bases of oval conical parts of different diameters, but with the same diameter at the point of truncation of the cone, i.e. in the form of a bell, several conical parts are obtained. When the divider is assembled, cavities form. When the device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle is working, the central oval conical part of the divider pushes the row of bushes into two parts, and then each oval conical part of the divider not only pushes, but also tilts the stems of the potato. At the same time, part of the Colorado potato beetles and larvae shake off leaves and stems and fall into the drive.

Potato stalks are in contact with the lateral surface of each conical part of the divider.

Shaking of potato stalks with a divider occurs due to depressions formed by oval truncated cones.

When the device adopted for the prototype, the potato stalks are moved apart and tilted by the conical parts of the divider, and the stems fall into the depressions formed by the conical parts of the divider. When the stems get into the hollows of the divider, the stems are shaken, and the remaining Colorado beetles and larvae come off the leaves and stems and fall into the drive.

However, when the divider moves, the shaking of the potato stalks is not intense, since there is not enough time to obtain the initial position of the stalks.

In addition, the depth and length of the depressions formed by oval truncated cones is insignificant and when the device moves, the potato stems do not have time to take their original position.

The objective of the utility model is to create a device for collecting Colorado potato beetles and other harmful insects, which allows to improve the flaking behavior of Colorado potato beetles and other harmful insects and to prevent beetles and insects from getting onto a row of potatoes.

The technical result from the use of the device is to increase the collection of insects by creating a divider design that allows not only to spread, tilt, but shake potato stems more intensively and collect Colorado beetles and other harmful insects falling on the divider.

The technical result is achieved by a device for collecting Colorado beetles and other harmful insects containing a frame on wheels, equipped with guides for crimping potato stems at the root, drives made with a recess above the wheel axis and having a divider mounted on the frame symmetrically to the longitudinal axis of the device, made in the form of a bell made of a central oval cone and parts of truncated cones with different base diameters and mounted on a square shaft, and the central oval yc and oval truncated cones are hollow at the top, wherein between the central cone and oval oval truncated cones mounted on the shaft oval sleeve.

Comparative analysis with the prototype shows that the inventive device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle meets the criterion of "novelty", as it differs from the prototype.

1. The divider is made of a central oval hollow cone and composite hollow oval truncated cones.

2. The central hollow oval cone in the upper part is made with cut-out windows.

3. The upper parts of the composite hollow oval truncated cones are made with cut-out windows.

4. Between the composite oval hollow truncated cones installed oval tubes.

In order to divide and expand the stems of one row of potatoes with the least shaking, the central cone of the divider is made oval. The task of the central cone of the divider is to smoothly divide the stems of one row into two parts. For this, the central part in the form of an oval cone is mounted on the shaft (threaded connection) and, when the device is in operation, spreads the stems of the potato. When the device moves, the central oval conical part of the divider moves in the middle of the row of potatoes, and the stems of the potato plants are divided into two parts.

In order to collect the Colorado potato beetles and other harmful insects by the divider, the oval truncated cones are hollow, that is, with the possibility of collecting insects inside the cones.

When the device adopted for the prototype is used, some Colorado beetles and larvae fall from the stalks and leaves of the potato onto the divider and slide off the divider, and then fall between the guides to compress the stalks of the potato onto the soil of a row of potatoes

In order to prevent the Colorado potato beetles from falling over the conical surface of the divider, and then onto the soil of a row of potatoes, that is, between the cones of the divider and the guides for compressing the potato stalks onto the soil, the upper parts of the hollow oval truncated are made with cut-out windows. When shaking stalks of potatoes, Colorado beetles and other insects fall on the divider and fall into the cut-out windows of the cones, that is, into the hollow oval truncated cones.

To increase the intensity of shaking of the stems between the hollow oval truncated cones, oval bushings are mounted on a square shaft. Oval bushings mounted on the shaft allow increasing the length of the depressions formed by the surfaces of the oval truncated cones, that is, they allow increasing the time for moving the potato stems to their original position.

Identified signs of a technical solution of the claimed device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle allow us to conclude that the technical solution meets the criterion of "Significant differences".

Figure 1 shows a device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle; figure 2 is the same top view.

The device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle consists of a frame 1, which is hung in front of a row tractor. Frame 1 is supported by support wheels. (The tractor and the support wheels are not shown in the figures). The drives 2 are mounted on the frame 1. The drives 2 mounted on the frame 1 are placed in the rows of the processed potatoes. Between the drives 2 there are rows of potatoes or ridges 3 with potato plants placed. The drives 2 are mounted on the frame 1 with the possibility of changing their position, since the technology of potato cultivation involves aisles of 60, 70 and 90 cm (in the figures, the fastening of the drives 2 to the frame is not shown).

Guides 4 are installed in front of drives 2. Between drives 2, in the middle of rows of potatoes or ridges 3, a divider 5 is installed symmetrically to the longitudinal axis of the device. The divider 5 is attached to the frame 1 by struts 6. The racks 6 are mounted on the frame 1 using ladders 7. Thus, it is possible to move the divider 5 along the frame 1 and to set it above the rows or crests of potatoes during inter-row treatments of potatoes cultivated with row-spacings of 60, 70, 90 cm.

The divider 5 is made in the form of a bell and consists of a central oval cone 8 and hollow oval truncated cones 9 and 10 mounted on a square shaft 11. The central oval cone 8 is mounted on the divider 5 central in the position in which the large diameter of the base is located vertically and is attached to the shaft 11 by a threaded connection. Hollow oval truncated cones 9 and 10 are mounted on a square shaft 11 and fixed with nuts 12. Between the oval cone 8 and the hollow oval truncated cone 9, as well as between the cone 9 and the hollow oval truncated cone 10 and other possible hollow oval truncated cones are mounted on the shaft square section oval bushings 13 and 14. Depending on the height of the potato bushes on the divider, you can install additional other cones. (Additional cones are not shown in the figures). In the upper part of the central hollow oval cone 8 and hollow oval truncated cones 9 and 10, cut-out windows 16 and 17 are made.

For installation and fastening of hollow oval truncated cones 9 and 10, as well as oval sleeves 13 and 14 in the required position, the shaft 11 is made of square section. For fastening the cones 9 and 10, as well as the oval bushings 13 and 14 in the required position, a nut 12 is screwed onto the shaft 11.

A device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle works as follows.

A device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle is mounted on a frame 1, which is supported by support wheels. (The supporting wheels are not shown in the figures). Frame 1 with a device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle is hung in front of a row tractor. A cultivator-hiller with interchangeable working bodies is hung on the rear linkage of a row-crop tractor. (In the figures, the tractor and the cultivator-hiller are not shown).

The device for collecting the Colorado potato beetle works simultaneously during inter-row cultivation, hilling potatoes and applying mineral fertilizers.

When working a row unit, drives 2 move with uniform speed along the row-spacing. Guides 4 compress the stems of the potato at the root. The divider 5 with the sharp end of the central oval cone 8, which is fixed on the shaft 11 by a threaded joint in a position in which the large diameter of the oval base is vertical, spreads the potato stalks in two and tilts the stalks above the drives 2. The expandable and tilted stems slide along the conical surface of the central oval cone 8, and then fall into the depressions formed by the oval base of the oval cone 8, the surface of the oval sleeve 13 and the conical surface of the hollow oval truncated th cone 9. Thus there is a potato leaf shaking due to spontaneous straightening stems. At the same time, Colorado beetles, as well as larvae and other insects, come off the stems, leaves of the potato and fall into drive 2. Spreadable and tilted stems of the potato glide along the conical surface of the hollow oval truncated cone 9, and then fall into the hollows formed by the oval base of the hollow truncated cone 9, the conical surface of the hollow oval truncated cone 10 and the surface of the oval sleeve 14. This shakes the potato leaves, as the stems are straightened and Colorado beetles, larvae, and also other insects come off and fall into the drive 2.

Colorado beetles and other harmful insects that did not fall into drive 2, as they showered above the divider 5, fall into the cut-out windows 15, 16, and 17. As the Colorado beetles accumulate in hollow oval truncated cones, the insects are manually removed.

Thus, in the inventive device for collecting Colorado beetles and other harmful insects, the divider not only spreads and tilts the stems, but also more intensively shakes the stems and leaves of the potato. At the same time, flaking of bugs and other harmful insects from potato plants that fall into the drive increases.

In addition, the design of the divider due to the execution in the upper part of the hollow oval truncated cones of the cut-out windows allows you to collect Colorado beetles and other harmful insects falling on the divider.
