Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to agricultural plant transportation technology, and in particular to a fully automated integrated intelligent transportation device for potted plants. Background Technology

[0002] Potted plants are defined as any living plant grown in a pot; they must be living plants, unlike potted flowers. When transporting potted plants, a transport frame is needed. While existing transport frames can be adjusted to the height of the pots, the varying heights of each pot can lead to wasted space. Furthermore, the transport frames occupy a significant amount of space and need to be disassembled and stored when not in use, which is inconvenient. Additionally, existing potted plant transport devices lack mechanisms to secure the pots during transport. When the pot pushes the frame to turn during transport, the pot may tilt to one side due to inertia. At larger angles, this can easily cause the pot to fall over, damaging the pot and the plant inside, defeating the purpose of potted plant transport and increasing workload.

[0003] Existing technologies also include height-adjustable frames for placing potted plants, which can be moved by pushing or moving the frames. However, this method requires manual placement of the potted plants on the frames, and after reaching the destination, the potted plants still need to be manually removed. Furthermore, the frames need to be adjusted to accommodate the potted plants, which greatly increases the labor intensity and workload. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a fully automatic integrated intelligent transfer device for potted plants, addressing the above-mentioned deficiencies of the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a fully automated integrated intelligent transfer device for potted plants, comprising:

[0058] The structural and working principles of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0059] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a structure according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 This is a cross-sectional view of an embodiment of the present invention. The fully automatic integrated intelligent transport device for potted plants of the present invention includes: a vehicle body 1, on which a telescopic groove 11, a fixing cylinder 13, and a placement cavity 12 are provided; the fixing cylinder 13 is installed within the telescopic groove 11, and a through hole 131 is coaxially provided within the fixing cylinder 13; the placement cavity 12 is located on one side of the telescopic groove 11; the vehicle body 1 can have its own walking mechanism; a cylinder 2, disposed within the placement cavity 12 and communicating with the through hole 131 of the fixing cylinder 13; a transport mechanism 3, including a transport platform 33, a sliding cylinder 31, and multiple sealing blocks 32; the sliding cylinder 31 is installed at the bottom end of the transport platform 33 and sleeved on the fixing cylinder 13; the multiple sealing blocks 32 are disposed at the bottom end of the transport platform 33 and evenly distributed circumferentially outside the sliding cylinder 31; each sealing block 32 is provided with an air chamber 321.

[0060] In this embodiment, a buffer 5 may also be included, which is installed on the bottom surface of the transfer table 33 corresponding to the sealing block 32. The vacuum suction cup 42 has a trumpet-shaped structure, and the top diameter of the vacuum suction cup 42 is larger than the diameter of the displacement groove 331. A filter screen 44 is provided inside the vacuum suction cup 42. The filter screen 44 is preferably a conical structure with multiple filter holes evenly distributed on the mesh surface. A sliding groove 311 is provided at the bottom of the sliding cylinder 31. The sliding cylinder 31 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the fixed cylinder 13 through the sliding groove 311. A flange 132 is provided at the top of the fixed cylinder 13 to limit the displacement of the sliding cylinder 31.

[0061] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3This is a schematic diagram showing the connection between cylinder 2 and transfer mechanism 3 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram showing the connection between cylinder 2 and vehicle body 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Cylinder 2 is connected to the through hole 131 of the fixed cylinder 13 via a straight pipe 21; the air chamber 321 is connected to cylinder 2 via an annular pipe 22, which is installed on the bottom wall of the telescopic groove 11, and the end of the annular pipe 22 away from cylinder 2 is sealed. The annular pipe 22 is connected to the air port 322 via a connecting air pipe 6, which is installed at the bottom of the sealing block 32, and a solenoid valve 7 is installed on the connecting air pipe 6.

[0062] See Figures 5-7 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the transfer mechanism 3 and the adsorption seat 4 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 6 for Figure 5 Enlarged view of part A in the middle. Figure 7 for Figure 6 Enlarged view of section B. The control component in this embodiment includes a limiting cylinder 35 and a control block 34. The bottom of the air chamber 321 is provided with an air port 322 communicating with the cylinder 2. The limiting cylinder 35 is installed above the air port 322. The base 43 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the limiting cylinder 35. The limiting cylinder 35 is provided with a flow groove 351 and a conversion groove 355 communicating with each other. The flow groove 351 communicates with the air groove 431. The lower part of the conversion groove 355 is provided with a plurality of through grooves 353 evenly opened along the circumference of the cylinder wall of the limiting cylinder 35. The through grooves 353 are preferably circular grooves to connect the air chamber 321 and the air port 322. The control block 34 is slidably installed in the conversion groove 355 to control the connection and disconnection between the air chamber 321 or the air groove 431 and the cylinder 2.

[0063] The inner wall of the flow channel 351 is provided with a blocking block 352, and the end of the blocking block 352 is provided with a cone. The top of the control block 34 is provided with an opening, and the cone is adapted to the opening of the control block 34. Multiple permanent magnetic blocks 341 are arranged parallel to each other on the outer ring of the control block 34, and multiple electromagnetic blocks 354 are arranged parallel to each other on the inner ring of the conversion channel 355. By changing the positive and negative polarity of the electromagnetic blocks 354 when they are energized, the electromagnetic blocks 354 and the magnetic blocks 341 are controlled to attract or repel each other. When the electromagnetic blocks 354 and the magnetic blocks 341 attract each other, the control block 34 moves upward, the cone blocks the opening, and the gas enters the gas cavity 321 from the gas port 322 along the through channel 353. When the electromagnetic blocks 354 and the magnetic blocks 341 repel each other, the control block 34 moves downward, and the gas enters the gas channel 431 from the opening through the flow channel 351. The diameter of the conversion groove 355 is larger than the diameter of the flow groove 351 and the air port 322.

[0064] In this embodiment, a telescopic groove 11 is provided on the top of the vehicle body 1, and a placement cavity 12 is provided on one side of the telescopic groove 11 inside the vehicle body 1. A cylinder 2 is fixedly installed inside the placement cavity 12. A vent hole is provided between the side of the vehicle body 1 and the placement cavity 12. A fixed cylinder 13 is fixedly installed in the middle of the bottom wall of the telescopic groove 11. The inside of the fixed cylinder 13 is a through hole 131. A transfer mechanism 3 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the fixed cylinder 13. An adsorption seat 4 is uniformly slidably sleeved on the bottom of the transfer mechanism 3 in a circular shape. A buffer 5 is uniformly fixedly installed in a circular shape on the bottom wall of the transfer platform 33 on the outer ring of the fixed cylinder 13. A support column 51 is fixedly connected to the output end of the buffer 5. The top surface of the support column 51 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the transfer platform 33. A connecting air pipe 6 is uniformly fixedly connected in a circular shape between the bottom of the transfer mechanism 3 and the cylinder 2.

[0065] A straight pipe 21 is fixedly connected between one end of the cylinder 2 and the middle of the fixed cylinder 13 at the bottom wall of the telescopic groove 11. The inside of the fixed cylinder 13 is connected to the inside of the cylinder 2 through the straight pipe 21. An annular pipe 22 is fixedly connected to one end of the cylinder 2 below the straight pipe 21. The annular pipe 22 is fixedly installed on the inner ring of the bottom wall of the telescopic groove 11, and the end of the annular pipe 22 away from the cylinder 2 is sealed. When the cylinder 2 is started, it supplies air into the straight pipe 21. The straight pipe 21 sends the air into the through hole 131 of the fixed cylinder 13. When the air pressure in the through hole 131 reaches a certain level, it can lift the entire transfer mechanism 3. The surrounding buffers 5 will also lift the transfer mechanism 3 together with the fixed cylinder 13 to assist in supporting the transfer mechanism 3. When the cylinder 2 absorbs the air in the fixed cylinder 13 through the straight pipe 21, the buffers 5 will play a buffering role, so that the transfer mechanism 3 falls smoothly into the telescopic groove 11.

[0066] The bottom of the transfer mechanism 3 is fixedly installed with a slide cylinder 31. The bottom of the slide cylinder 31 is provided with a sliding groove 311. The slide cylinder 31 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the fixed cylinder 13. The fixed cylinder 13 and the sliding groove 311 are adapted to each other. The top flange 132 of the fixed cylinder 13 restricts the sliding distance of the slide cylinder 31. The bottom of the transfer mechanism 3 is located on the outer ring of the slide cylinder 31 and the sealing block 32 is uniformly fixedly installed in a circular shape. The sealing block 32 is provided with an air cavity 321. An air port 322 is provided between the bottom middle of the sealing block 32 and the air cavity 321. The bottom wall of the air cavity 321 is fixedly installed with a limiting cylinder 35 at the air port 322. The transfer table 33 is provided with a displacement groove 331, which communicates with the air cavity 321. The adsorption seat 4 is slidably sleeved on the outer ring of the limiting cylinder 35. The adsorption seat 4 and the limiting cylinder 35 are adapted to each other. An air groove 431 is opened in the base 43. A fixed plate 41 is provided on the top of the base 43. The fixed plate 41 is adapted to the displacement groove 331. The fixed plate 41 and the displacement groove 331 are slidably sealed. A vacuum suction cup 42 is provided above the fixed plate 41. The vacuum suction cup 42 is trumpet-shaped. The opening of the vacuum suction cup 42 is located at the top of the transfer table 33. The top diameter of the vacuum suction cup 42 is larger than the top diameter of the displacement groove 331. The displacement groove 331 is used to limit the vacuum suction cup 42. A filter screen 44 is fixedly installed inside the vacuum suction cup 42. The longitudinal section of the filter screen 44 is preferably an isosceles trapezoid. The surface of the filter screen 44 is evenly provided with filter holes in a circular shape, which can prevent impurities at the bottom of the flower pot from being sucked into the cylinder 2 and causing damage to the cylinder 2. Unlike commonly used flat filters, the filter 44 has an isosceles trapezoidal cross-section, meaning it is cone-shaped or pyramid-shaped. While flat filters have a small contact area with air or impurities, the cone-shaped filter 44 increases the contact area with impurities or air, making it less prone to clogging. The filter 44 will trap impurities inside the vacuum suction cup 42. Due to the shape of the filter 44, impurities will not completely cover it, facilitating gas flow.

[0067] In this embodiment, the connecting air pipe 6 is fixedly connected between the annular pipe 22 and the air port 322. The connecting air pipe 6 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the sealing block 32. A solenoid valve 7 is fixedly installed on the connecting air pipe 6. By controlling the direction of the current flowing through the solenoid valve 7, the opening and closing of the solenoid valve 7 can be controlled. When the solenoid valve 7 is open, the gas inside the transfer mechanism 3 can be drawn into the cylinder 2 through the connecting air pipe 6. The gas inside the cylinder 2 can also enter the transfer mechanism 3 through the connecting air pipe 6. The cylinder 2 can control the up and down sliding of the adsorption seat 4 relative to the displacement groove 331.

[0068] The limiting cylinder 35 has a flow groove 351 located at the air port 322. A conversion groove 355 is located at the bottom of the limiting cylinder 35. A control block 34 is slidably installed inside the conversion groove 355. An opening is formed at the top of the control block 34, connecting the air port 322 to the flow groove 351. Magnetic blocks 341 are arranged in a parallel array around the outer ring of the control block 34, with equal spacing between adjacent magnetic blocks 341. The magnetic blocks 341 are permanent magnets. The diameter of the conversion groove 355 is larger than that of the flow groove 351 and the air port 322, ensuring that the control block 34 can only slide within the conversion groove 355. The connecting air pipe 6 flows through the flow groove 355. The channel 351 is connected to the air channel 431. A block block 352 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the channel 351. A cone block is fixedly installed at the end of the block block 352. The tip of the cone block faces the control block 34. The cone block is adapted to the opening at the top of the control block 34. The outer ring of the limiting cylinder 35 is uniformly provided with a circular channel 353 near the bottom. Electromagnetic blocks 354 are arranged in a parallel array in the conversion channel 355. The spacing between adjacent electromagnetic blocks 354 is equal. When the electromagnetic blocks 354 are energized, they attract or repel the magnetic blocks 341. The magnetism of the electromagnetic blocks 354 can be changed by changing the positive and negative pole directions of the electromagnetic blocks 354.

[0069] The cylinder 2 can change the air pressure between the vacuum suction cup 42 and the potted plant by supplying and drawing air into the annular pipe 22. When the cylinder 2 draws air, the vacuum suction cup 42 and the potted plant are in a negative pressure state, which can fix the position between the potted plant and the vacuum suction cup 42. The position of the control block 34 can be controlled by the electromagnetic block 354, which can adjust the annular pipe 22 to communicate with the air groove 431 or the air chamber 321 of the adsorption seat 4. The former can be used to fix or release the potted plant, and the latter can control the overall position movement of the adsorption seat 4 inside the transfer mechanism 3, so as to raise or lower the position of the adsorption seat 4.

[0070] During operation, the drive vehicle 1 is placed at the bottom of the potted plant stand. The number of vacuum suction cups 42 needed for adsorption depends on the size of the potted plant. If the potted plant is small, the cylinder 2 is activated to supply air into the annular pipe 22 and power a single solenoid valve 7, opening the corresponding air passage of the connecting air pipe 6. The gas enters the corresponding limiting cylinder 35 through the connecting air pipe 6, powering the corresponding electromagnetic block 354. This magnetic attraction causes the corresponding control block 34 located at the bottom of the corresponding conversion groove 355 to rise, exposing the through groove 353. The control block 34, attracted by the electromagnetic block 354, moves upward, completely blocking the opening with a cone, sealing the opening. Gas from the connecting air pipe 6 enters the air chamber 321 through the through groove 353 within the limiting cylinder 35. When the gas reaches a certain amount, it lifts the fixing plate 41, causing the adsorption seat 4 to slide upward around the outer ring of the limiting cylinder 35 until the opening of the vacuum suction cup 42 touches the bottom of the potted plant, lifting it upward. The bottom is freed from the constraints of the potted plant stand; at this time, the power supply direction of the electromagnetic block 354 is changed, causing the electromagnetic block 354 to drive the control block 34 to slide downwards. The control block 34 touches the bottom of the conversion groove 355, exposing the opening. The air supply from the cylinder 2 to the annular pipe 22 is stopped, and the cylinder 2 is driven to absorb the gas inside the annular pipe 22. The gas inside the vacuum suction cup 42 is filtered through the filter screen 44 and then sucked away by the cylinder 2. The cylinder 2 absorbs the gas until the vacuum suction cup 42 is in a negative pressure state, driving the vehicle body 1 to move the potted plant, so that the potted plant is completely freed from the potted plant stand. The power supply direction of the electromagnetic block 354 is changed again, causing the control block 34 to be attracted upwards, so that the opening is blocked by the cone block. The vacuum suction cup 42 and the potted plant continue to maintain a negative pressure state. At this time, the through groove 353 is exposed, and the gas inside the air chamber 321 is sucked in and absorbed, causing the fixed plate 41 to fall to the bottom wall of the displacement groove 331, reducing the height of the potted plant. The electromagnetic valve 7 is powered in reverse, so that the air path connecting the air pipe 6 is closed. While the potted plant is being transported, the bottom of the potted plant is held in a vacuum suction cup 42, which keeps the internal space under negative pressure. The potted plant is firmly held in the vacuum suction cup 42, and no matter how it is shaken during the transport process, the potted plant will not tilt, thus preventing it from falling over during transport. The vehicle body 1 continues to transport the potted plant to the required potted plant stand. Cylinder 2 supplies air into the annular pipe 22, changes the power supply of solenoid valve 7, and allows gas to enter the air chamber 321 through the connecting air pipe 6, lifting the fixed plate 41 upwards. At the same time, the potted plant rises together. The vehicle body 1 drives the potted plant into the potted plant stand. The power supply of solenoid block 354 is changed, causing control block 34 to fall back to the bottom of conversion groove 355, exposing the opening. Cylinder 2 supplies air into the vacuum suction cup 42, releasing the negative pressure between the potted plant and the vacuum suction cup 42. The power supply of solenoid block 354 is changed again, causing suction control block 34 to rise, exposing the through groove 353. The driving cylinder 2 changes from supplying air to suction, placing the fixed plate 41 on the bottom wall of displacement groove 331, placing the potted plant in the potted plant stand, and the vehicle body 1 moves out from the potted plant stand position, realizing the intelligent transfer of the potted plant.The above describes the case of a single vacuum suction cup 42 adsorbing a potted plant. In this embodiment, four small potted plants that match the vacuum suction cup 42 can be adsorbed at the same time, or four vacuum suction cups 42 can be used together to adsorb a large potted plant, thus enabling the safe transfer of multiple small potted plants or a single large potted plant.

[0071] This application enables convenient transport and fixation of potted plants. During transport, cylinder 2 is activated to draw air into the annular pipe 22 and power a single solenoid valve 7, opening the air passage connecting to the air pipe 6. The gas inside the vacuum suction cup 42 is filtered through the filter screen 44 and drawn away by cylinder 2. The vacuum suction cup 42 is then under negative pressure. While transporting the potted plant, the bottom of the pot is held in negative pressure by the vacuum suction cup 42, maintaining this negative pressure throughout the transport process. The potted plant is firmly held in place by the vacuum suction cup 42, preventing it from tilting during transport and thus effectively fixing the plant. Activating cylinder 2 supplies air into the annular pipe 22 and powers the single solenoid valve 7. Power is supplied to open the air passage of the connecting air pipe 6, allowing gas to enter the limiting cylinder 35 through the connecting air pipe 6 and supply power to the electromagnetic block 354. The control block 34 located at the bottom of the conversion groove 355 is attracted upward by the magnetism, exposing the through groove 353. The control block 34 moves upward by the attraction of the electromagnetic block 354, causing the cone block to completely block the opening and seal the opening. The gas from the connecting air pipe 6 inside the limiting cylinder 35 enters the air chamber 321 through the through groove 353. When the gas reaches a certain amount, it lifts the fixed plate 41, causing the adsorption seat 4 to slide upward until the opening of the vacuum suction cup 42 touches the bottom of the potted plant, lifting the potted plant upward and freeing the bottom of the potted plant from the restriction of the potted plant stand, thus achieving the effect of conveniently transporting potted plants.

[0072] Of course, the present invention may have other various embodiments. Without departing from the spirit and essence of the present invention, those skilled in the art can make various corresponding changes and modifications according to the present invention, but these corresponding changes and modifications should all fall within the protection scope of the appended claims.
