Protective covering device for agricultural use.
The system can be used in vineyards, orchards, greenhouses, or any crop grown in rows. It covers the plants during adverse weather conditions and automatically retracts when the weather improves. The installation is modular and adapts to field length without obstructing the movement of agricultural machinery.
How does it work?
Support structure
It is mounted on vineyard or orchard posts and houses the mechanical components.
Harvesting process
The system is designed not to interfere with the grape harvesting process. During the harvesting period, the mechanism’s arms can be fully retracted, leaving only the width of the main shaft, approximately 35 cm. This allows harvesting machinery to pass easily through the vineyard rows, as the mechanism fits seamlessly within the machine’s working space. As shown in the image, the equipment integrates efficiently with the harvester, ensuring smooth operation without obstruction.
The invention “Protective Covering Device for Agricultural Use” represents a practical and sustainable innovation in modern agriculture. It combines mechanical engineering, electrical automation, and meteorological sensor technology to provide an intelligent, durable, and highly efficient system for protecting agricultural crops. This system aims to increase productivity, reduce climate-related damage, and establish a new standard in agricultural protection management.
