Whether as a cooking ingredient or as a nutritional supplement, yam can meet people's needs for balanced nutrition, which is also an important reason for the continuous expansion of the yam market.

[0004] When planting yam, 10-15 cm long young yam segments are used, and it is impossible to use the common seed sowing machines available on the market for sowing; in addition, since yam is a vine plant, it needs to be supported and managed to ensure that the plant can grow upward and has sufficient light and ventilation, which places high requirements on the climbing frame; subsequent work such as inserting poles must be done manually, and bamboo poles or branches are used for manual bundling, which has low operating efficiency. Traditional yam planting is purely manual, which is a labor-intensive work with strong seasonality. Long-term bending work is extremely harmful to farmers' bodies, and the planting efficiency is low. Therefore, some people began to develop automatic yam planting machines, such as Chinese patent CN112535004B, which discloses a yam planting machine, but the patent only realizes semi-automatic planting, which reduces the intensity of manual labor and improves planting efficiency to a certain extent, but still requires manual labor, and it is impossible to automatically build a climbing frame, so that the planting efficiency of the entire planting process needs to be improved.

In the vine frame rod support component 144; the vine frame rod support component 144 is located below the vine frame rod guide rail 142, and the vine frame rod support component 144 is provided with a positioning groove with an opening facing upward, which is used to receive the vine frame rod 145 sent out from the vine frame rod guide rail 142; the pressure rod component 143 is located above the vine frame rod support component 144 and is connected to the lifting drive mechanism, which is used to press the two ends of the vine frame rod 145 on the vine frame rod support component 144 into the soil; the vine frame rod arc rail 146 is rotatably installed below the vine frame rod support component 144 and is connected to the seventh motor 151, which is used to cooperate with the pressure rod component 143 to shape the vine frame rod 145.

[0077] like Fig.15 As shown, the rod storage bin 140 is a V-shaped bin, and a rod outlet hole is provided at the bottom of the bin.

[0078] like Fig.15As shown, the climbing vine frame rod separator 141 is rotatably installed below the rod hole and connected to the sixth motor 147. An axial groove 1411 for accommodating a single climbing vine frame rod 145 is provided on the outer wall of the climbing vine frame rod separator 141, and the gap between the axial groove and the rod hole is smaller than the outer diameter of the climbing vine frame rod 145, which can ensure that only one climbing vine frame rod 145 is separated out each time. When the axial groove of the climbing vine frame rod separator 141 rotates to just below the rod hole, the climbing vine frame rod 145 falls into the axial groove of the climbing vine frame rod separator 141 to realize the removal of a single climbing vine frame rod 145. As the climbing vine frame rod separator 141 rotates, it is guided by the climbing vine frame rod guide rail 142 to fall into the positioning groove 1441 of the climbing vine frame rod support component 144.

[0079] like Fig.15 As shown, the rear part of the bottom of the positioning groove 1441 has a slope 1442 which is lower in front and higher in the back. The climbing rod 145 is guided by the climbing rod guide rail 142 and falls into the positioning groove 1441 in a horizontal posture. The climbing rod 145 is sent to the fixed position of the positioning groove 1441 under the guidance of the slope 1442, so that the pressing rod component 143 can smoothly press down the end of the climbing rod 145.

[0080] like Fig.14 As shown, the pressure rod component 143 is an inverted U-shaped, V-shaped, U-shaped or V-shaped pressure rod component. The pressure rod component 143 is vertically lifted and lowered on a vertical plane under the drive of a lifting drive mechanism, and is used to press the two ends of the climbing frame rod 145 horizontally placed in the positioning groove of the climbing frame rod support component 144 downward into the soil.

During the downward movement of the pressure rod component 143, the arc rail 146 of the climbing frame rod is always supported in the middle of the climbing frame rod 145. Since the climbing frame rod 145 is made of a material with good toughness and plasticity, it bends downward when both ends are pressed downward, and the two ends of the climbing frame rod 145 can be inserted into the soil. The bending and deformed climbing frame rod 145 can be firmly inserted into the soil by repeatedly pressing the pressure rod component 143 back and forth.

After the two ends of the climbing frame rod 145 are firmly inserted into the soil, they are lifted up, and the circular arc rail 146, which was previously supported in the middle of the climbing frame rod 145, rotates 180° counterclockwise, so that the climbing frame rod 145 is separated from the whole machine, realizing the function of building a climbing frame, which is convenient for the growth of yam. The pressure rod component 143 and the climbing frame rod circular arc rail 146 jointly shape the climbing frame rod 145, so that the middle of the climbing frame rod 145 forms an upwardly protruding arc section, and the two ends of the climbing frame rod 145 are inserted into the soil.

[0084] like Fig.16 As shown, the pressure rod component 143 is an inverted U-shaped structure, which can press the two ends of the climbing frame rod 145 and cooperate with the climbing frame rod arc rail 146 to shape the climbing frame rod 145, shaping the climbing frame rod 145 into an arc structure with a high middle and low sides.

At the same time, the fourth motor 81 is started, and the third chain 83 is driven by the first gear 82 to rotate the feeding component 84, and the fertilizer 91 in the V-shaped fertilizer storage bin 85 is slowly pushed out from the front end of the partition 92, and is broken and mixed into the soil by the second chain 54 in the slotting and loosening module 3 below, so as to achieve the effect of soil moistening and base fertilizer application.

[0087] 3) The first motor 32 in the chassis module is started, connected to the last two tires 31 through the coupling 33 and the fixing parts, and the whole machine moves through the wheel transmission 34.

[0088] 4) The fifth motor 101 in the yam separation and soil covering module 5 is started, and the torque is transmitted to the transmission shaft 103 through the fourth chain 102, so that the second gear 104 rotates, and the yam stems 111 in the yam storage bin 105 are equidistantly separated by the yam separation component 112, and fall onto the conveyor belt 113, and the conveyor belt 113 is driven by the transmission shaft 103, and the yam stems 111 fall into the yam slide rail 114, and further fall into the opened groove, and the soil covering component 115 covers the soil opened by the groove loosening module 3 back into the groove, so as to realize the automatic sowing and soil covering of yam.

[0089] 5) The climbing frame rod separation part 141 located above the whole machine in the rod insertion module 6 is powered by the motor next to it.

The screw rod drives the pressure rod component 143 to rise and fall, and the climbing frame rod 145 is inserted into the soil. The pressure rod component 143 is repeatedly pressed back and forth. After being lifted, the climbing frame rod arc rail 146 rotates 180° counterclockwise to separate the climbing frame rod 145 from the whole machine, thereby realizing the function of building a climbing frame, which is convenient for the growth of yam.
