Description

The utility model relates to agricultural production and can be used for grinding plant materials, such as branches with or without leaves, bushes, flowers, grass, plant residues in greenhouses, such as cucumber vines.

Shredders can significantly reduce the volume of processed plant materials. In some cases, clippings may be recycled, for example to form compost or mulch to cover some areas to reduce weed growth (mulching).

An example of such a shredder is described in patent FR 2768352. Such a shredder contains a feed zone and an ejection zone for plant waste, as well as a grinding mechanism. Since the ejection zone is directed upward, the shredder contains a low-flow, high-pressure fan that creates an air flow that sucks the cut/shredded plant waste towards the ejection zone.

The closest analogue in terms of the set of essential features to the claimed technical solution is a small-sized feed mill unit containing a frame with wheels, a chopper with a receiving hopper, a mixer, a device for loading initial components and unloading the finished product, a drive mechanism [RU 2275156 C2 MPK F23N17, 2006].

The disadvantage of this device is the inability to capture cucumber vines, the length of which in greenhouses can reach up to 3 m, increasing the labor intensity of the process.

An analysis of known technical solutions has shown that the technical problem in this area is the need to expand the arsenal of means for cleaning plant residues in greenhouses, in particular cucumber vines.

The technical result of the utility model is to reduce the labor intensity of the process of harvesting and grinding plant residues in greenhouses.

To solve this technical problem and achieve the stated technical result, a device for harvesting and chopping cucumber vines in greenhouses, mounted on a frame with wheels, containing a grinding chamber, a loading neck, an unloading neck, a stationary sieve, while in the grinding chamber they are installed parallel to each other main and additional augers equipped with guides made in the form of a spiral for drawing the loaded mass into the chamber and feeding it to the grinding part of the installation, while a multi-bladed knife is mounted on the shaft of the main auger adjacent to the fixed sieve, and on the outside of the fixed sieve there is a container for collecting the crushed mass.

The technical solution is illustrated by drawings. Figure 1 shows a general diagram of the device, top view. Figure 2 is a side view.

A device for harvesting and chopping strands of cucumbers in greenhouses includes a loading neck 1. In the grinding chamber, parallel to each other, main 2 and additional 3 augers are installed, equipped with guides made in the form of a spiral for drawing the loaded mass into the chamber and feeding it to the grinding installation parts. A multi-bladed knife 4 is installed in the grinding chamber, which is adjacent to a stationary sieve 5. On the outside of the stationary sieve there is a container for collecting the crushed mass. The device can be driven from a power take-off shaft (BOM), and an individual trolley drive can be installed - an electric motor 6. The device is mounted on a frame with 7 wheels. The additional auger is driven through a gear 8.

The device works as follows.

The cucumber lashes, cleared of soil, fall into the loading neck 1, to which parallel installed main 2 and additional 3 augers, equipped with guides made in the form of a spiral, pull the loaded mass (cucumber lashes) into the chamber and feed it to the grinding part of the device, consisting of a multi-blade knife 4, which is adjacent to the stationary sieve 5. The crushed mass enters a container for collecting the crushed mass, through which it is loaded into containers (bags) and then for disposal. The device can be driven from a power take-off shaft (PTO), and an individual trolley drive can be installed - an electric motor 6. The device is mounted on a frame with wheels 7. The additional auger is driven through a gear transmission 8.

Compared to the prototype, the stated set of essential features will significantly reduce the labor intensity of the process of harvesting and grinding plant residues in greenhouses.
