DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0033] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. The present invention is further described below in combination with the embodiments.

[0034] See also Figure 1 -5, in one embodiment of the present application, a poplar afforestation seedling tray device comprises a water tank 1, a plurality of universal wheels 2 and a top cover 3, wherein the top cover 3 is arranged on one side of the water tank 1, a controller 5 is arranged on the top cover 3, a plurality of universal wheels 2 are symmetrically arranged on the water tank 1, a connecting seat is arranged on the top cover 3, a connecting head 17 is movably arranged on the connecting seat, a plurality of lighting lamps 4 are arranged on the top cover 3, and the seedling tray device further comprises:

[0035] The seedling tray body 7 is movably arranged on one side of the water tank 1 and connected to the connector 17. The seedling tray body 7 is formed with a plurality of planting holes in an array;

[0036] Soil storage modules, which are in a plurality of groups, and each of the planting holes is provided with a group of soil storage modules, and the soil storage modules are used to store soil; and

[0037] The driving module is arranged between the connecting head 17 and the top cover 3, and is used to control the swing of the seedling tray body 7.

[0038] In this exemplary embodiment, each group of soil storage modules includes:

[0039] A soil storage box 8 is arranged in the planting hole and the two are threadedly matched;

[0040] A mesh 10 is disposed in a perforation 9 formed in the soil storage box 8; and

[0041] There are several groups of loosening units, which are equidistantly arranged in the soil storage box 8, with gaps left between each group of loosening units. The loosening units are used to loosen the soil in the soil storage box 8.

[0042] In actual application, the soil storage box 8 is filled with soil and installed in the planting hole. By planting the poplar seedlings in each planting hole and controlling the operation of the driving module, the seedling tray body 7 can be driven to swing repeatedly, so that the soil in the soil storage box 8 at different positions is successively in contact with the water in the water tank 1, and the soil in the soil storage box 8 is intermittently soaked. By setting the gauze 10, excess water can be returned from the soil storage box 8 to the water tank 1, thereby ensuring the humidity of the soil. At the same time, it can also drive the loosening unit to work synchronously to loosen the soil and improve the growth environment of the poplar seedlings.

[0043] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 5 As another preferred embodiment of the present application, each group of the loosening units includes a mounting seat 11, a plurality of loosening rollers 12 and a counterweight seat 15;

[0044] The mounting seat 11 is arranged in the soil storage box 8, and a plurality of loosening rollers 12 are equidistantly arranged on the mounting seat 11 and a torsion spring is arranged between the two. The counterweight seat 15 is movably arranged in a cavity formed in the mounting seat 11, and the loosening roller 12 extends into the cavity with a margin. The loosening roller 12 is arranged on the moving path of the counterweight seat 15, and a plurality of protrusions 13 are equidistantly arranged on the loosening roller 12.

[0045] In this embodiment, for example, each loosening roller 12 is provided with a first damping strip 14 , and the counterweight seat 15 is provided with a second damping strip 16 , and the first damping strip 14 is located on the moving path of the second damping strip 16 .

[0046] During the repeated swinging of the seedling tray body 7, the soil storage box 8 can be driven to swing synchronously. At this time, the soil storage box 8 is tilted, so that under the action of the gravity of the counterweight seat 15, the counterweight seat 15 can be driven to reciprocate in the cavity. Under the action of the friction resistance between the No. 1 damping strip 14 and the No. 2 damping strip 16, the loosening roller 12 can be driven to rotate a certain angle and automatically reset. At this time, the soil in the soil storage box 8 can be loosened. The whole device has a high degree of automation. While controlling the repeated swinging of the seedling tray body 7 to intermittently add water to the soil, it can also use the action of the counterweight seat 15 and the friction resistance between the No. 1 damping strip 14 and the No. 2 damping strip 16 to make the loosening roller 12 rotate repeatedly, replacing the staff to loosen the soil, reducing the labor input and ensuring that the seedlings are in a better planting environment.

[0047] See also Figure 1 as well as Figure 4 As another preferred embodiment of the present application, the driving module includes:

[0048] A trapezoidal plate 20, movably arranged on the top cover 3;

[0049] A power element, which is disposed on the top cover 3 and has an output end connected to the trapezoidal disc 20; and

[0050] The abutment rod 18 is disposed on the connector 17 and is slidably matched with the inclined surface 21 formed on the trapezoidal disk 20 .

[0051] In a specific case of this embodiment, a resistance reducing member is provided between the abutment rod 18 and the inclined surface 21 to reduce the friction resistance between the abutment rod 18 and the inclined surface 21 .

[0052] In another specific case of this embodiment, a transmission 23 and a generator 24 are provided on the top cover 3, and the generator 24 is connected to the transmission 23. A drive disk 22 is movably provided on the top cover 3, and the drive disk 22 and the trapezoidal disk 20 are slidably matched and connected to the transmission 23.

[0053] It should be particularly noted that the power element can be a stepper motor 6 or a servo motor. In the present embodiment, the power element is preferably a stepper motor 6. The stepper motor 6 is arranged on the top cover 3 and its output end is connected to the trapezoidal disk 20. As for the specific model of the stepper motor 6, the best choice can be made according to the actual situation, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0054] In addition, the resistance reducing member may be a ball 19 or a roller. In the present embodiment, the resistance reducing member is preferably a ball 19 , and the ball 19 is slidably embedded in the abutment rod 18 and slidably cooperates with the inclined surface 21 .

[0055] In actual application, by controlling the stepper motor 6 to be powered on and rotated, the trapezoidal disc 20 is driven to rotate. Under the sliding cooperation between the inclined surface 21 and the ball 19, the connecting head 17 and the seedling tray body 7 can be driven to swing repeatedly, so that the soil storage boxes 8 on both sides of the seedling tray body 7 can intermittently contact the water in the water tank 1, thereby realizing the intermittent watering of the soil. At the same time, during the rotation of the trapezoidal disc 20, the friction resistance between the trapezoidal disc 20 and the driving disc 22 can drive the driving disc 22 to rotate, so that under the action of the transmission 23, the power is transmitted to the generator 24 to generate electricity and power the lighting lamp 4, thereby realizing the conversion of kinetic energy into electrical energy, achieving the effect of energy saving and environmental protection.

[0056] How this application works:

[0057] The soil storage box 8 is filled with soil and installed in the planting hole. The poplar seedlings are planted in each planting hole. The stepper motor 6 is controlled to rotate, thereby driving the trapezoidal disk 20 to rotate. Under the sliding cooperation between the inclined surface 21 and the ball 19, the connecting head 17 and the seedling tray body 7 can be driven to swing repeatedly, so that the soil storage boxes 8 on both sides of the seedling tray body 7 can be intermittently in contact with the water in the water tank 1, thereby realizing the work of intermittent watering of the soil. In the process of repeated swinging of the seedling tray body 7, the soil storage box 8 can be driven to swing synchronously. At this time, the soil storage box 8 is tilted, so that under the gravity of the counterweight seat 15, the counterweight seat 15 can be driven to rotate. The counterweight seat 15 reciprocates in the cavity, and under the friction resistance between the first damping strip 14 and the second damping strip 16, it can drive the loosening roller 12 to rotate a certain angle and automatically reset, and at this time, the soil in the soil storage box 8 can be loosened. The whole device has a high degree of automation. While controlling the seedling tray body 7 to repeatedly swing and intermittently add water to the soil, it can also use the action of the counterweight seat 15 and the friction resistance between the first damping strip 14 and the second damping strip 16 to make the loosening roller 12 rotate repeatedly, replacing the staff to loosen the soil, reducing the labor input and ensuring that the seedlings are in a better planting environment. At the same time, during the rotation of the trapezoidal disc 20, the friction resistance between the trapezoidal disc 20 and the driving disc 22 can drive the driving disc 22 to rotate, so that under the action of the transmission 23, the power is transmitted to the generator 24 to generate electricity and power the lighting lamp 4, thereby realizing the conversion of kinetic energy into electrical energy, and achieving the effect of energy saving and environmental protection.

[0058] The present invention and its embodiments are described schematically above, and the description is not restrictive. The drawings show only one embodiment of the present invention, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. Therefore, if a person skilled in the art is inspired by it and designs a structural method and an embodiment similar to the technical solution without creativity without departing from the purpose of the invention, they shall all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0059] In addition, it should be understood that although the present specification is described according to implementation modes, not every implementation mode contains only one independent technical solution. This description of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment may also be appropriately combined to form other implementation modes that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
