DEVICE FOR COLLECTING LOCUST Russian patent published in 2019 - IPC A01M5/08 

FIELD: agriculture; machine building.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to agricultural machine building. Locust collection device contains a hinged platform attached to the tractor attachment mechanism. Site consists of rigidly interconnected back and front parts. On the front platform there are two fans with suction lines and cleaning filters. Attached to the rear of the site are suction working bodies. Suction bodies contain a rotating brush. Brush is located in the casing. Casing has the form of a socket with a suction hose. Sleeve is attached to a dilution device-cyclone. Cyclone is located on the rear platform. Cyclone ends with a discharge opening with a flap. Removable discharge bag is attached under the hole. Adjustment of the position of the brush with the casing in height is carried out by a screw mechanism of the supporting adjustment wheel. Central drive pulley is connected to the tractor's power take-off shaft. Central pulley is made two-stage with pulleys of larger and smaller diameter. Larger diameter pulley is connected by pulleys of fan shafts. Smaller diameter pulley is connected to the pulley of the shaft of the suction working bodies. Shaft suction working bodies made of the right and left of the individual parts. Working bodies on the right and left parts of the shaft are interconnected by means of safety couplings.

EFFECT: possibility of collecting intact locusts; pollution of locusts and supply line decreases; increases productivity.
