PLANT FOR INVESTIGATION OF CUTTING STEMS OF AGRICULTURAL CROPS Russian patent published in 2025 - IPC A01D45/00 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to agricultural engineering and can be used for investigation of elastic properties of crops both in field and in laboratory conditions. Installation consists of a frame, a cutting mechanism, a voltage converter from 12 V to 220 V, an accumulator battery and a laptop with software. Frame front has fixed running gear including two support pneumatic wheels rotating on one axis in two U-shaped brackets. Frame rear has rotary part including two support pneumatic wheels, each running on its axle in two U-like brackets. U-shaped brackets have spikes, which through holes and thrust bearings are fixed against axial displacement in frame upwards by means of lock rings. Installation is controlled by means of the steering mechanism, which includes connected to the U-shaped brackets pivoting journals, steering rods and bipod and the steering shaft with the steering wheel, wherein cutting mechanism comprises motor with replaceable disk fitted on motor shaft end. Electric motor can rotate on the axes entering the grooves of the guides and hold its position with the help of two disc retainers and lock nuts, wherein the voltage converter and the storage battery are placed on the frame in a closed box having a flap cover from above to prevent plant residues and atmospheric precipitation from falling inside, for smooth adjustment of replaceable disk rotations there is a regulator located on support table of frame next to notebook.

EFFECT: disclosed is an apparatus for investigating cutting stems of crops.
