Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and defoliation machine for removing leaves from a stalk of a graminaceous plant, in particular a sugarcane plant.
  • WO 2014/074077 A1 describes a sugarcane leaves remover apparatus, which removes the leaves from a sugarcane stalk without cutting it off.
  • a set of rotary brushes shears off the leaves, as the apparatus moves over the field, treating one stalk after the other.
  • a similar mechanism is used, for example, by the harvester described in WO 2012/010235 A1 , where brushes are used to remove the leaves from a sugarcane stalk.
  • the sugarcane leaf removal machine described in CN 203801298 U comprises two rollers with needles. The stalk is placed between the two parallel rollers and the leaves are scraped off and thereby removed from the stalk. Another principle for removing leaves from the stalk is burning the leaves on the field or, for instance, as described in WO 2014/191679 A1.
  • the sugarcane is fed into a furnace and the combustion and time of the sugarcane in the furnace is controlled to remove the leaves without damaging the core of the cane stems.
  • the leaves can be cut off by knives, for example as described in
  • CN 201 1 54307 Y where blades with a concave shape are held by a spring assembly to reduce damage to the stalk.
  • Another assembly of blades to defoliate sugarcane stalks is described in CN 2010 1 1847 Y, where fixed and mobile blades surround a hole, through which the stalk can be moved to cut off the leaves.
  • the sugarcane harvester described in US 2004/0074217 A1 comprises a harvest chamber, into which the upright standing sugarcane plant is funneled, while the harvester is moving across the field. High velocity air streams are created within the chamber and remove leaves from the stalk, while the debris is removed from the chamber by a debris vacuum assembly.
  • the method according to the invention comprises moving the stalk essentially along its longitudinal axis. Furthermore, it comprises generating at least one air flow, which is directed onto the stalk in a direction from the top of the stalk and at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the stalk, thereby lifting off leaves from the stalk. Finally the lifted leaves are detached from the stalk.
  • a mechanical device for removing the leaf can be operated at a safe distance from the bud, such that the more sensitive parts of the plants, in particular the buds, are not harmed.
  • Leaves in the sense of the invention can be all parts of the sugarcane plant other than the stalks and buds.
  • the invention is also not limited to environmental air, but can use any gaseous compound available. In particular, this method is advantageous in cases where the leaves are growing tightly on the stalk, where other mechanical methods have difficulties to detach the leaves in this case.
  • the stalk is efficiently defoliated, giving access to the buds and allowing their extraction to grow seedlings.
  • the stalk may be processed in another way and the leaves are not destroyed as, e.g., by burning them. Since the stalk is moved along its longitudinal axis, the mechanism allows for automation and efficient use on one stalk after the other.
  • the air flow can be generated by different methods, which are known as such.
  • at least one nozzle or an arrangement of several nozzles can be used to generate a defined spatial distribution of the air flow, for example to direct the air with a predetermined intensity onto the stalk and to control where and at what angle the air flow hits the stalk, thereby optimizing the lifting of the leaves.
  • the top of the stalk is therefore defined as the end opposite to the base where the stalk is growing out of the ground.
  • the air flow can be constant or variable in time, particularly it can comprise short pulses of high intensity air flow.
  • the distribution of the air flow, in particular the shape of the cross section of the air flow, can be chosen as desired and as suitable for the application.
  • the air flow has a laterally elongated cross section.
  • a flat shape of the air flow can be chosen.
  • the ratio of the length to the width of the elongated cross section is particularly larger than 2, preferably larger than 5 and more preferably larger than 10.
  • the direction of the width of the cross section can be essentially tangential to the circumference of the stalk.
  • the air flow can advantageously be directed specifically to a clearly defined region of the stalk and leaves.
  • the air flow can be implemented, e.g., as air jet, air blade, air knife or in any other suitable style.
  • the mechanism to remove the leaves from the stalk can be implemented by different methods or a combination thereof.
  • cutting and/or shearing the leaves off can be chosen as suitable approaches, allowing both manual operation and more or less
  • cuts can be executed, e.g., by water jet cutters or other cutting devices.
  • the stalk is oriented such that the top of the stalk is moved in the forward direction.
  • the top is at the front of the moving stalk. Since the leaves grow towards the top of the stalk, it is therefore advantageously possible to lift off the leaves successively and remove them.
  • the air flow is generated by a plurality of nozzles surrounding the longitudinal axis of the stalk. This makes it easier to reach all the leaves that are growing on different sides of the stalk with the air flow at one time. An advantageously efficient and thorough defoliation of the stalk can therefore be reached.
  • the at least one air flow that is generated by the plurality of nozzles comprises individual air flows, which are created by each single air nozzle.
  • the shape of the individual air flows and the arrangement of the single air nozzles determine the shape and distribution of the resulting air flow.
  • air flow can relate to both the plurality of individual air flows and the total resulting air flow that is generated.
  • the air flow is generated by a plurality of nozzles arranged in a ring configuration around the longitudinal axis of the stalk. This makes it easier to reach all the leaves that are growing on different sides of the stalk with the air flow at one time. An advantageously efficient and thorough defoliation of the stalk can therefore be reached.
  • the ring configuration of the air nozzles is to be understood as an arrangement such that the stalk is surrounded by the plurality of air nozzles.
  • the air nozzles are arranged at the same distance to the stalk.
  • they can be arranged such that each of them is aligned at another angle relative to the stalk's longitudinal axis.
  • the air nozzles can be arranged at the same position relative to the length of the stalk and evenly distributed around the longitudinal axis of the stalk, particularly at the same distance from the stalk.
  • the air nozzles can further be arranged shifted to each other, forming for example a spiral arrangement, wherein the ring configuration is visible from a view in a direction along the longitudinal axis of the stalk.
  • the leaves are detached by shearing forces exerted by the air flow.
  • the air flow can be used in a dual function for lifting off the leaves and for removing them.
  • this can be achieved by using a very strong and focused air flow, which is generated by suitably formed air nozzles.
  • a pulsed air flow can be used for the detaching of the leaves, and several sets of nozzles can be used to lift and detach the leaves, respectively.
  • the distribution and/or intensity of the air flow is adjusted depending on the position and/or properties of the stalk. For example, image data of the stalk can be retrieved and an image processing method can be used to determine where leaves, nodes and/or buds are positioned on the stalk. Therefore, natural variations in the growth of the stalks and differences in the position of the stalk itself can be compensated.
  • the leaves are detached alternatively or in addition by at least one pair of rollers, which are rotating in opposite directions.
  • the rollers rotate along axes parallel to the longitudinal axis of the stalk, arranged with respect to each other suitably for drawing leaves between them and shearing the leaves off.
  • the pair of rollers in this sense in particular comprises two cylindrical bodies, e.g., formed by metal that are mounted such that the circumferential surfaces touch each other or are at a close distance to each other, forming a gap between the rollers.
  • the support can be stiff, holding the rollers firmly in place, or flexible, allowing passive or active displacement of the rollers relatively to each other.
  • the rollers are mounted rotatably around their longitudinal axis. In particular, the rollers' longitudinal axes are arranged in parallel to the longitudinal axis of the stalk, as is the gap between the rollers.
  • rollers of one pair are rotated in opposite directions, such that a leaf on the stalk can get jammed in the gap and is drawn in due to the rotation. Therefore, the distance between the circumferential surfaces of the rollers needs to be adjusted to provide a big enough force holding and moving the leaf away from the stalk. The force pulling the leaf away from the stalk can then be used to shear off the leaf.
  • This provides an advantageously efficient way of removing leaves, while the rollers can be arranged such that only the leaves get clamped between the rollers that are to be removed, therefore preserving the buds on the stalk.
  • at least one plurality of pairs of rollers is surrounding the longitudinal axis of the stalk in a ring-configuration.
  • the plurality of rollers can be arranged in different configurations, for example in a configuration spiraling around the stalk's longitudinal axis.
  • the rollers can be arranged in any configuration that ensures that leaves all around the stalk can be detached.
  • the rollers comprise a conical shape at the end pointing opposite to the direction of movement of the stalk. This shape of the rollers forms a funnel for each pair of rollers such that the leaves are guided towards the gap between the rollers.
  • the detached leaves are removed by a second air flow, essentially in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the stalk. This allows handling the debris in a way that ensures reliable operation of the defoliation device.
  • the detached leaves can be blown away from the stalk or sucked in by the second air flow. They can be subsequently collected and used, for example for energy production.
  • the defoliation machine comprises a stalk conducting unit, forming an elongated cavity suitable to take up the stalk and providing a movement essentially along the longitudinal axis of the stalk. It further comprises a blower unit, suitable for generating at least one air flow, which is directed onto the cavity in a defined direction and at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the cavity, and suitable for lifting off leaves from the stalk that is taken up by the cavity. Finally, it comprises a leaf detaching unit for detaching the lifted leaves from the stalk.
  • the defoliation machine is particularly configured to execute the above-described method according to the invention. It therefore has the same advantages.
  • the blower unit is adapted to generate an air flow that has a laterally elongated cross section.
  • the shape of the air flow can be flat.
  • the ratio of the length to the width of the elongated cross section is particularly larger than 2, preferably larger than 5 and more preferably larger than 10.
  • air flow can be formed in such that the direction of the width of the cross section can be essentially tangential to the circumference of the cavity and the typical arrangement of the stalk inside the cavity, respectively.
  • the air flow can advantageously be directed specifically to a clearly defined region of the stalk and leaves.
  • Different technologies may exist that allow achieving a highly defined distribution of regions with high air pressure generated by the air flow.
  • the air flow can be implemented, e.g., as air jet, air blade, air knife or in any other suitable style.
  • the blower unit comprises a plurality of air nozzles surrounding the longitudinal axis of the cavity.
  • the air flow can thus advantageously be generated in such a way that leaves in different areas of the stalk can be reached.
  • the blower unit comprises a plurality of air nozzles arranged in a ring configuration around the longitudinal axis of the cavity. The air flow that is generated by these nozzles can advantageously be arranged around the stalk such that the leaves can be detached evenly all around the stalk.
  • the air nozzles generate an air flow that is suitable to shear off the leaves from the stalk. This double use of the air flow generated by the air nozzles allows an advantageously compact and simple configuration of the machine.
  • separate sets of nozzles can be used to generate the air flow to lift off the leaves and to shear them off, or the air flow generated by the nozzles can be varied in time to subsequently lift off the leaves and then detach them.
  • the leaf detaching unit comprises at least one pair of rollers, comprising a pair of cylindrical bodies, which are arranged in parallel to each other, rotating in opposite directions and suitable to draw lifted leaves in between them and to shear off the leaves.
  • the rollers are arranged parallel to the longitudinal axis of the cavity. As described above, this allows detaching the leaves efficiently and reliably.
  • the rollers comprise a conical shape at the end pointing against the direction of movement of the stalk.
  • the conical shapes can act as a funnel for leaves that are lifted off by the air flow to guide them between the rollers.
  • the rollers comprise a cylindrical shape and a friction surface on the circumferential surfaces. This makes for an advantageously strong grip of the pair of rollers to a drawn-in leaf and therefore allows applying high forces.

  • a common way of growing sugarcane starts by cutting the stalk 1 into pieces, each comprising one or more buds 3, and growing seedlings from these buds 3. The seedlings are then planted on the field and grown to full size, before they are harvested and the cycle can start again.
