[0001]
[0002] Olive harvesting machine.
[0003]
[0004] Sector of the technique
[0005]
[0006] The present invention belongs to the field of agricultural mechanization and more specifically to that of farm implements.
[0007]
[0008] The object of the present invention is an apparatus that incorporated into a tractor is constituted in a harvester machine for the collection of the olive. Although it is designed for olive harvesting, its versatility will allow it to be used for the harvesting of other similar sized fruits such as almonds or pistachios.
[0009]
[0010] Background of the invention
[0011]
[0012] The olive harvest is an agricultural activity that has had a slow evolution in the last years and that is not comparable to the technological evolution that has taken place in the rest of agricultural activities. Either by the time of the year in which it takes place (midwinter), and by the orography of the land of most of the olive grove (slopes of difficult access), or by the difficulties that presents the olive tree as a tree to be approached from mechanical form, the truth is that at present there is no machine capable of harvesting the olive grove in a broad sense.
[0013]
[0014] Harvesters have been designed that, in spite of their volume and advanced technology, have their application limited to a type of young, small and unproductive olive grove (the so-called intensive olive grove), and with very difficult mobility in uneven terrain, which leaves out of its reach to 90% of the Spanish olive grove. On the other hand, in the collection have been incorporated different machines with a limited vision to mechanize tasks, as! occurs with the wide range of vibrators, either autonomous machines, incorporated into a tractor or carried by a person, whose function is reduced to tearing down the olive, being supplemented with staff vareador and by carriers of shawls. Also, some types of umbrellas have been designed to replace the meshes or shawls where the olives are picked down by stick or vibrator, which given their short view of the problem of collection and the need to interact with other media have not been, nor even, a partial improvement.
[0015]
[0016] For all the above, we can say that, currently, olive harvesting practices that combine the old ancestral tasks with mechanized ones coexist in the Spanish olive grove, without being able to speak of a fully mechanized agrarian activity in the 21st century.
[0017] Explanation of the invention
[0018]
[0019] With the present invention we intend to solve the problems presented by the olive harvesting phase. The appliance, in its operation, act as if it were a walnut, leaving the olive tree, totally or partially, inside its shell. The advantages of this device are innumerable, highlighting in particular its adaptability to the different types of olive trees (young plant, olive one foot, two or more feet), as well as to all types of terrains: plains, slopes and terrains mountainous The characteristics of stability, maneuverability, speed and economy are those of the motor vehicle to which it is incorporated: the tractor, vehicle that is available to a large part of the olive farmers.
[0020]
[0021] It should be noted also as a fundamental characteristic and especially the protective treatment that this system will provide the olive tree against the traditional system of vareo or front to the rest of vibrating mechanisms that attack the tree, injuring numerous trunk branches and, sometimes, the trunk itself.
[0022]
[0023] The present invention consists of a system of double umbrellas that are almost coupled as if it were the two halves of a nut, facilitates the demolition of the olive by the combs of vareo that are incorporated into the upper umbrella. This, in turn, prevents the fruit from dispersing in the olive grove, facilitating its flow in the lower umbrella that acts as the recipient. The fruit thus collected is poured into a tank which, once full, is poured into a tarpaulin for its load in tow. Given that the loading operation of the fruit is already mechanized with a specific crane, it is discarded to incorporate this task in this phase of the invention, since the disadvantages are greater than the advantages it brings.
[0024]
[0025] If the tractor does not have an air compressor it will be necessary to incorporate one moved by means of cardan, since the movement of the combs of vareo is achieved by means of air pressure.
[0026] All movements of opening and closing, extension and folding of the arms of the umbrella is done by means of the hydraulic system of the tractor.
[0027]
[0028] In the event that the machine has to circulate through public areas of circulation, it will be necessary to dismantle the fabric of the umbrellas and fold the entire system. For its operation the assembly is started by the upper umbrella. The crane arm is extended, the fabric is hung and the umbrella is opened by joining the opening arches. Then the vane combs are hung and the umbrella is raised to facilitate the assembly of the lower one. Next, the arms of the lower umbrella are unfolded and opened, the coupling piece is attached to the arms and the umbrella fabric to the whole assembly, thus being ready to operate. The disassembly and retraction operation will be carried out in the opposite direction, first the lower one and then the upper one.
[0029]
[0030] Brief description of the drawings
[0031]
[0032] The attached figures show, on the one hand, the olive harvesting machine (1) as a whole and on the other hand, in a singularized way, each one of the essential components of the same: supporting structure (2), inverted lower umbrella (3) , coupling piece (4) fruit receiving tank (5), crane arm (6), upper umbrella (7), upper umbrella support ring (15), upper umbrella opening arches (16), support piece and transfer of combs (17) and combs of vareo (9).

It is built by welding rectangular hollow steel profiles and screwed in its middle area to the tractor chassis, in the front of it and in the place occupied by the counterweights. Although standard measurements of the profiles and the structure as a whole could be established and given that the apparatus has to be incorporated into a tractor, it will be the vehicle's own characteristics and measurements that will determine them, taking into account the existing limitations to travel through public as well as its resistance to support the weight of the whole. Total weight of the system ± 1,500 kg.
[0039] B. Lower inverted umbrella (3). It consists of two articulated arms, moved by hydraulic pistons, autonomous in their movements and symmetrical in their configuration.
[0040] They are made with rectangular hollow steel profiles with different sizes and thickness for each of the three parts that make it up, being the largest for the arm, the smallest for the forearm and the smallest for the hand. The point of support of each arm is located at the ends of the lower transversal stringer of the support structure (2) and the minimum distance from the point of support to the ground 100 cm. In the upper internal part of each arm and every 200 mm has hooks to support the slings to which the nylon fabric of the umbrella is sewn (23), so! as to support the coupling piece (4) to the trunk of the tree. Description of each of the inverted umbrella parts (3):
