DESCRIPCIÓNDESCRIPTION

Mecanismo de evacuación de frutos en máquinas vareadoras recogedoras de frutos Fruit evacuation mechanism in fruit harvesting machines

SECTOR DE LA TÉCNICATECHNIQUE SECTOR

La presente invención se refiere a unos sinfines de evacuación de frutos en máquinas vareadoras recogedoras de frutos destinados a evitar atascos y mal funcionamiento de las cintas transportadoras que incorporan este tipo de máquinas para desplazar los frutos recogidos por culpa de elementos tales como la humedad, hojas o impurezas que se recogen conjuntamente con los frutos. The present invention refers to fruit evacuation augers in fruit harvesting machines intended to avoid jams and malfunctions of the conveyor belts that incorporate this type of machines to move the collected fruits due to elements such as humidity, leaves or impurities that are collected together with the fruits.

ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

En una máquina vareadora recogedora, los frutos derribados por las varas se depositan en una primera cinta, comúnmente denominada primaria y que va a lo largo de la máquina. In a grape-picking machine, the fruits knocked down by the poles are deposited on a first belt, commonly called primary, which runs the length of the machine.

Esta primera cinta descarga en una segunda cinta o cinta secundaria que está dispuesta perpendicular a la primaria y que alimenta a una tercera cinta provista de cangilones, dispuesta verticalmente, que eleva el producto hasta la parte superior de la máquina donde se deposita en una cuarta cinta denominada transversal, la cual descarga en otra cinta que comunica con una canaleta lateral que llevará el producto al depósito de recogida. This first belt discharges onto a second or secondary belt that is arranged perpendicular to the primary belt and feeds a third belt provided with buckets, arranged vertically, which lifts the product to the top of the machine where it is deposited on a fourth belt. called transversal, which discharges onto another belt that communicates with a side channel that will take the product to the collection tank.

Entre la primera cinta y la segunda se dispone una despalilladora cuya función es eliminar en la medida de lo posible las hojas e impurezas. Between the first belt and the second there is a destemmer whose function is to eliminate leaves and impurities as much as possible.

Sin embargo es habitual que la cinta secundaria sufra atascos o incluso roturas debidos a la humedad, hojas e impurezas que transportan junto con los frutos, por lo que su limpieza retrasa la recolección debido a la ubicación de las mismas. However, it is common for the secondary belt to get jammed or even break due to humidity, leaves and impurities carried along with the fruits, so cleaning it delays the harvest due to their location.

EXPLICACIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓNEXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

El mecanismo de la invención resuelve de forma plenamente satisfactoria la problemática anteriormente expuesta en base a una solución sumamente eficaz. The mechanism of the invention fully satisfactorily resolves the previously mentioned problem based on a highly effective solution.

Para ello, y de forma más concreta, la invención consiste en sustituir la segunda cinta, es decir, la situada transversalmente a la despalilladora, por uno o dos sinfines de evacuación, con lo que se evitan los atascos producidos en dicha cinta. To this end, and more specifically, the invention consists of replacing the second belt, that is, the one located transversely to the destemmer, with one or two evacuation augers, thereby avoiding jams produced in said belt.

Los sinfines de evacuación no tendrán eje central, para evitar que se líen tallos o impurezas en los mismos. The evacuation augers will not have a central axis, to prevent stems or impurities from getting caught in them.

Podrán montarse de manera simple o doble y con mayor o menor diámetro dependiendo de la cantidad de producto a transportar. They can be mounted single or double and with a larger or smaller diameter depending on the amount of product to be transported.

En cuanto a su accionamiento, éste se conseguirá de manera mecánica o hidráulica. As for its operation, this will be achieved mechanically or hydraulically.

De esta manera se evitan atascos y roturas en los medios destinados a trasvasar los frutos desde la cinta principal hacia la tercera cinta de la máquina recogedora de frutos, a la que acceden los frutos "limpios” de modo que esta tercera cinta pueda trabajar de forma normal sin riesgo de atascos o roturas. In this way, jams and breakages are avoided in the means used to transfer the fruits from the main belt to the third belt of the fruit picking machine, to which the "clean" fruits access so that this third belt can work properly. normal without risk of jams or breakages.

REALIZACIÓN PREFERENTE DE LA INVENCIÓNPREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

A la vista de las figuras reseñadas, puede observarse cómo el mecanismo de la invención está destinado a ser implantado en una máquina (1) vareadora recogedora de frutos, en la que los frutos derribados por las varas, así como hojas y ramas se depositan en una primera cinta o cinta primaria (2), dispuesta a lo largo de la máquina, y cuya extremidad de salida desemboca en una despalilladora (3), que consiste en una serie de discos paralelos entre sí y perpendiculares al plano de la cinta primaria (2) que giran en sentido contrario a las agujas del reloj, es decir en el sentido de avance de los frutos y residuos a eliminar, separados entre sí una distancia ligeramente mayor que el tamaño de los frutos a recolectar, de modo que estos caigan por gravedad hacia un conducto transversal (6), destinado a trasvasar dichos frutos hacia una cinta de transporte adicional de los frutos limpios, no representada en las figuras, de manera que, las ramas, hojas y otros elementos no deseados sean descargados por el extremo opuesto a la cinta primaria (2) de la despalilladora (3). In view of the figures outlined, it can be seen how the mechanism of the invention is intended to be implemented in a fruit-picking harvesting machine (1), in which the fruits knocked down by the rods, as well as leaves and branches, are deposited in a first belt or primary belt (2), arranged along the machine, and whose exit end leads into a destemmer (3), which consists of a series of discs parallel to each other and perpendicular to the plane of the primary belt ( 2) that rotate counterclockwise, that is, in the direction of advance of the fruits and waste to be eliminated, separated from each other a distance slightly greater than the size of the fruits to be collected, so that they fall by gravity towards a transversal duct (6), intended to transfer said fruits to an additional conveyor belt for the clean fruits, not shown in the figures, so that the branches, leaves and other unwanted elements are discharged from the opposite end. to the primary belt (2) of the destemmer (3).

Pues bien, para facilitar el desplazamiento de los frutos a lo largo del conducto transversal (6) desde la zona inferior de la despalilladora hasta la cinta de recogida de los frutos limpios, se ha previsto que en sustitución de la clásica cinta transportadora intermedia o secundaria se establezcan uno o dos sinfines (5-5’) de evacuación, con lo que se evitan atascos en esta zona de transición. Well, to facilitate the movement of the fruits along the transverse conduit (6) from the lower area of the destemmer to the clean fruit collection belt, it has been planned that, in replacement of the classic intermediate or secondary conveyor belt, One or two evacuation augers (5-5') are established, thereby avoiding traffic jams in this transition zone.

Tal y como se puede ver en el detalle ampliado de la figura 3, los sinfines (5-5’) de evacuación no tendrán eje central, para evitar que se líen tallos o impurezas en los mismos. As can be seen in the enlarged detail of Figure 3, the evacuation augers (5-5') will not have a central axis, to prevent stems or impurities from getting tangled in them.

En la figura 2 puede observarse como el eje de accionamiento de estos sinfines está asociado a una transmisión (4) que podrá ser accionada manera mecánica o hidráulica. In Figure 2 it can be seen how the drive shaft of these augers is associated with a transmission (4) that can be operated mechanically or hydraulically.

A partir de esta estructuración, y como se ha dicho con anterioridad, las ramas que accedan a la despalillados acabarán siendo expulsadas por el extremo libre de ésta, de modo que aunque puedan alcanzar parcialmente la zona del conducto transversal (6), no interferirán en el mecanismo de evacuación de los frutos, evitando así posibles atascos, siendo antes o después expulsadas por la despalilladora, debido a la mayor longitud de estos elementos con respecto a los frutos recogidos. From this structuring, and as previously stated, the branches that access the destemmed plant will end up being expelled from the free end of the plant, so that although they may partially reach the area of the transverse duct (6), they will not interfere with the the evacuation mechanism of the fruits, thus avoiding possible jams, being expelled sooner or later by the destemmer, due to the greater length of these elements with respect to the collected fruits.
