Abstract

Machine for harvesting broccoli (sort of tender green small cabbages). The invention relates to a machine making it possible mechanically to convey the broccoli gathered into wooden crates mounted on a trailer. Hitched up to an agricultural tractor (1), this machine is composed of two PVC belt conveyors which receive the gathered cabbages (2). These two belts, actuated by hydraulic motors, convey the broccoli to an elevator with lugs (H = 100 mm) (3). The latter conveys the cabbages onto a fourth belt (4) mounted on a trailer. A distributor, actuated by a small chain, then allows the cabbages to fall into the wooden crates (5). This machine allows intensive and very fast gathering of broccoli.

Description

La présente invention concerne une machine destinée à récolter les brocolis (sorte de petits choux verts et tendres). The present invention relates to a machine for harvesting broccoli (a sort of small green and tender cabbage).

Jusqu'à présent, la récolte des bracolis s'effectuait manuellement des ouvrières ramasseurs teillaient la tête des choux dont elles emplissaient des paniers en osier. Until now, bracolis harvesting was done manually by worker pickers teasing the head of cabbage with which they filled wicker baskets.

Des ouvriers circulaient dans les rangs de la planetation, récupérant ces paniers pleins qu'ils allaient vieder dans des caisses placées en borduere du champ. Ils devaient ensuite rapporter les paniers vides aux remasseuses. Workmen circulated in the rows of the planetation, recovering these full baskets which they were going to empty into boxes placed at the edge of the field. They then had to return the empty baskets to the pickers.

Cette technique présentait de nombreux inconvenients; - travail fastidieux et fatigant; - utilisation d'un personnel important; - rendement peu elevé mais par contre trés onéreux;
Le système mécanique proposé est approprié à ue cueillette intensive et permet de récolter, avec une grande rapifité et un personnel réduit.
This technique had many drawbacks; - tedious and tiring work; - use of large staff; - low yield but very expensive on the other hand;
The proposed mechanical system is suitable for intensive picking and allows harvesting, with great speed and reduced staff.

Puisque désormais, une seule manipulation est nécessaire. 12 rangs de bracolis par passage de la machine.Since now only one manipulation is necessary. 12 rows of bracolis per machine pass.

Toutes les autres opérations seront effectuées automatiquement, les mesures de sécurité ayant été soigneusement respectées. All other operations will be carried out automatically, the security measures having been carefully observed.

Le dispositif se compose de: - quatre transporteurs à bande d'environ 5 mètres de long chacun dont un élévateur à tasseaux d'une hauteur de 100 millimètres. The device is made up of: - four belt conveyors, each about 5 meters long, including a stacking elevator with a height of 100 millimeters.

- une potence de support avec quatre haubans; - une ramorque supportant les caisses du chargement.- a support bracket with four shrouds; - a trailer supporting the loading boxes.

L'ensemble est fixé à l'arrière d'un tracteur.The assembly is attached to the rear of a tractor.

Les ouvrières ramasseurs (matérialisés par des croix sur les croquis) marchent derrière les transporteurs A et B pendant que le tracteur avance lentement, chacune s'occupant d'un rang de bracolis. Elles coupent la tête des choux qu'elles déposent sur les tapis en PVC A et B lesquels, actionnés par des moteurs hydrauliques ramènent les brocoils vers le transporteur central.The worker pickers (marked by crosses on the sketches) walk behind carriers A and B while the tractor moves slowly, each taking care of a row of bracolis. They cut the head of the cabbage which they place on the PVC mats A and B which, actuated by hydraulic motors bring the brocoils back to the central transporter.

Ils sont déversés alors dans une goulotte et elevés à une hauteur de trois mètres à l'aide du transporteur C équipé d'un trois à tasseaux (voir détail) qui permet au brancolis de monter sans glisser.They are then poured into a chute and raised to a height of three meters using the conveyor C equipped with a three with cleats (see detail) which allows the brancolis to rise without slipping.

Arrivés à ce point, les choux sont transférés sur le tapis # muni d'un système de répartition qui coulisse sur ce même tapis à l'aide d'une chaînette, permettant ainsi de faire basculer les bracoils dans des caisses en bois, au nombre de 10 (2 rangées de 5) disposées sous le tapis #, et qui se remplissent 2 par alternativement. Tapis # et caisses sont montés sur une remorque attelée à l'arrière du tracteur lorsque toutes les caisses sont remplies.Arrived at this point, the cabbages are transferred to the mat # provided with a distribution system which slides on this same mat using a chain, thus making it possible to tip the bracoils into wooden boxes, by the number of 10 (2 rows of 5) arranged under the mat #, and which fill 2 by alternately. Carpet # and boxes are mounted on a trailer hitched to the rear of the tractor when all boxes are full.

On dételle alors la remorque au point d'accrochage (2), pour l'atteler en son point d'accrochage (1) car chaque remorque est équipé de deux timons qui ont été placés à chaque extrémité à un autre tracteur venu la récupérer.The trailer is then uncoupled from the attachment point (2), to couple it to its attachment point (1) because each trailer is equipped with two drawbars which have been placed at each end by another tractor that has come to collect it.

Pour éviter toute perte de temps et permettre au dispositif de poursuivre sand cesse la récolte, il a été réalisé lors de la fabrication, deux remorques semblables pour un seul ensemble ABC de maniére qu'un remorque de caisses pleines soit aussitôt remplacée par une remorque de caisses vides.  To avoid any loss of time and allow the device to continue without stopping the harvest, it was produced during manufacture, two similar trailers for a single ABC assembly so that a trailer of full boxes is immediately replaced by a trailer of empty boxes.

REVENDICATIONS 1) Machine à récolter les brocolis qui comporte quatre tapis roulants permettant d'amener les brocolis cueillis dans des caisses en bois montées sur une remorque. 1) Broccoli harvesting machine which has four conveyor belts for bringing the broccoli picked in wooden crates mounted on a trailer. 2) Dispositif selon la revendication 1 caractérisé par deux transporteurs A et 8 équipés de tapis PVC, actionnés par deux moteurs hydrauliques. 2) Device according to claim 1 characterized by two conveyors A and 8 equipped with PVC belts, actuated by two hydraulic motors. des tapis tournent suivant les fléches, c'est sur ceux-ci que les ramasseuses (représentées par des croix) jettent les choux cueillis.carpets turn according to the arrows, it is on these that the pickers (represented by crosses) throw the picked cabbages. 3) Dispositif selon la revendication 1 caractérisé par un élévateur lui aussi actionné par hydraulique. C'est également un tapis en PVC mais équipé de tasseaux de 100 mm de hauteur. Il prend les choux amenés par les tapis 3) Device according to claim 1 characterized by an elevator also actuated by hydraulic. It is also a PVC mat but fitted with battens 100 mm high.

Les choux amenés par l'élévateur C tambent sur ' qui est équipé d'une gaulotte afin que les choux tambent précisément sur celui-ci. Ce tapis # est équipé d'un répartiteur qui coulisse, actionné par de la chaînette. Donc. les choux ar rivant sur ce répartiteur tombent dans des caisses pr#ealablement placées sur la remorque supportant #.  4) Device according to claim 1 characterized by a fourth belt # pulled by a trailer hitch # e 'at the rear of the tractor. The cabbages brought by the elevator C beat on 'which is equipped with a gaulotte so that the cabbages beat precisely on this one. This carpet # is equipped with a sliding distributor, activated by a chain. So. the cabbages arriving on this distributor fall into boxes # previously placed on the trailer supporting #. 5) Dispositif selon la revendication 1 caractérisé par la présencé d'une deuxiéme remorque équipée comme la premiére. Cela permet d'atteler une remorque avec des caisses vides dés que l'on a dételé une remorque de caisses pleines. Pour éviter toutes manoeuvres des tracteurs deux timons ont été placés àchaque extrémité des remorques.  5) Device according to claim 1 characterized by the presence of a second trailer equipped as the first. This makes it possible to couple a trailer with empty boxes as soon as a trailer with full boxes has been uncoupled. To avoid any maneuvering of the tractors, two drawbars were placed at each end of the trailers.
