Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of agricultural equipment technology, and in particular to a pole-planting and branch-tying machine. Background Technology

[0002] Chili peppers, as an important component of my country's spicy vegetable industry, have seen continuous growth in planting scale. By the end of 2023, the planting area of ​​chili peppers had reached approximately 2.15 million hectares, with an output value of 250 billion yuan, accounting for about 11.36% of the national total output value. The chili pepper industry contributed 1.14% to farmers' income. As a solanaceous economic crop with shallow root systems, chili peppers are susceptible to external factors such as adverse weather and unsuitable soil conditions, leading to lodging and reduced yields. To reduce crop diseases and pests and avoid dense planting, farmers mainly use single-row, single-hole, single-plant planting methods. To further reduce lodging, farmers often use stakes and tie branches in the early stages of chili pepper growth, when the plants begin to grow but are not yet overly vigorous, to guide the direction of stem growth and reduce lodging.

[0003] Currently, chili pepper stalk tying is mainly done manually or with small tying machines (such as the tying machine disclosed in application number 201710092399.4). There are also emerging large-scale mechanized operations. However, manual tying is inefficient, and small tying machines still require hand-held operation. Furthermore, starting the tying machine and securing the clips requires considerable effort, resulting in high labor intensity and inconsistent work quality. Large machinery is too large to adapt to complex terrain and cannot be used inside greenhouses. It is only suitable for open-field planting environments, and the cost of the machines is high, making it unaffordable for small farmers. Summary of the Invention

When each of the clamps moves into the second clamping slot, it clamps the thin rod together with the second fixed clamping part.

[0016] Furthermore, the insertion rod module includes at least one guide rail, a pressure plate, and a lifting drive assembly. Each of the guide rails is vertically arranged, and the pressure plate is horizontally arranged and slidably connected to each of the guide rails. The lifting drive assembly is connected to the pressure plate and is used to drive the pressure plate to move up and down so that the pressure plate presses the lower end of the thin rod into the soil.

[0017] Furthermore, the binding module includes a storage tray, a clamping unit, a blade, a knotting unit, an X-axis moving unit, a Y-axis moving unit, and a Z-axis moving unit.

The movable member has a T-shaped groove with a third segment that communicates with each other. The third segment extends along the travel direction of the walking module, and the fourth segment extends perpendicular to the travel direction of the walking module. The clamping member is disposed within the mounting box and slidably connected to the mounting box. The clamping member can reciprocate along the travel direction perpendicular to the walking module to approach or move away from the movable part, and clamp or release the end of the strap together with the movable part. The through shaft is vertically disposed and slides through the L-shaped groove and the T-shaped groove. One end of the through shaft is fixedly connected to the clamping member. The first elastic member is disposed within the mounting box. One end of the first elastic member is fixedly connected to the mounting box, and the other end of the first elastic member is fixedly connected to the inner end of the movable part, so that the movable part... Upon reaching the first position, when the movable component reaches the first position, the through shaft is located at the junction of the first and second segments and also at the inner end of the third segment. The clamping component is away from the movable component. The second elastic component is disposed inside the mounting box, with one end of the second elastic component fixedly connected to the mounting box and the other end of the second elastic component fixedly connected to the end of the clamping component away from the movable component, so that the clamping component moves closer to the movable component. During the process of the storage tray and the clamping unit moving closer to each other in the horizontal plane along the traveling direction of the traveling module, the end of the storage tray near the clamping unit pushes the movable component to move inward along the traveling direction of the traveling module, so that the movable component reaches the second position. When the movable component reaches the second position, the second segment and the fourth segment correspond to each other. The through shaft is initially located at the junction of the third and fourth segments. The second elastic element pushes the clamping member to move along the travel direction perpendicular to the traveling module, so as to approach the movable component and clamp the end of the strap together with the movable component. The through shaft is finally located at the end of the second segment away from the first segment and at the end of the fourth segment away from the third segment. The clamping member is in a locked state. The end of the storage tray near the clamping unit continues to push the movable component inward along the travel direction of the traveling module so that the movable component reaches the third position. The clamping member moves along the travel direction perpendicular to the traveling module.The end of the strap is loosened away from the movable part and together with the movable part. When the movable part reaches the third position, the through shaft is located at the outer end of the third segment and also at the junction of the first and second segments. The end of the storage tray near the clamping unit continues to push the movable part inward along the traveling direction of the walking module, so that the movable part reaches the fourth position. When the movable part reaches the fourth position, the through shaft is located at the inner end of the first segment, and the clamping member is in a locked state. When the end of the storage tray near the clamping unit releases the movable part and gradually moves away from the clamping unit, the first elastic member pushes the movable part outward along the traveling direction of the walking module, and the movable part reaches the first position.

[0019] Furthermore, the knotting unit includes a twisting disc, at least two knotting rods, and a sixth rotation drive. Each knotting rod is circumferentially arranged on the side of the twisting disc and extends tangentially along the twisting disc. The end of each knotting rod near the twisting disc is fixedly connected to the twisting disc, and a knotting seam is formed between each knotting rod and the twisting disc. The sixth rotation drive is fixedly connected to the mounting box, and its output end is coaxially fixedly connected to the twisting disc for driving the twisting disc to rotate. During the rotation of the twisting disc, each knotting rod can roll the binding tape into the corresponding knotting seam to knot the binding tape.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention include: In use, the thin rod to be inserted and tied is placed horizontally in the rod storage module, and then the walking module moves along the ridge. During the movement of the walking module along the ridge, the rod storage module will intermittently release individual thin rods. First, the flipping module can receive and clamp the individual thin rods released by the rod storage module, and then the flipping module changes the thin rod from a horizontal state to a vertical state. Then, the insertion module inserts the vertical thin rod into the soil, and finally, the tying module ties the thin rod inserted into the soil to the corresponding chili seedling stem, thus completing the insertion and tying of chili seedlings. This insertion and tying machine can adapt to complex terrain environments and enter the greenhouse to carry out efficient insertion and tying of seedlings. Moreover, the machine cost is low, which is affordable for small farmers. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.

[0033] This invention provides a pole-inserting and branch-tying machine, the structure of which is as follows: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the system includes a walking module 100, a pole storage module 200, a flipping module 300, a pole insertion module 400, and a branch binding module 500. The walking module 100 is used to travel along the ridges. The pole storage module 200 is mounted on the walking module 100 and is used to store horizontally placed thin poles and to intermittently release individual thin poles. The flipping module 300 is mounted on the walking module 100 and located to the side of the pole storage module 200. It is used to receive and clamp the thin poles and to change the thin poles from a horizontal state to a vertical state. The pole insertion module 400 is mounted on the walking module 100 and is used to insert the vertical thin poles into the soil. The branch binding module 500 is mounted on the walking module 100 and is used to bind the thin poles inserted into the soil to the corresponding chili pepper plant stems.

[0034] In use, the thin poles to be inserted and tied are placed horizontally in the pole storage module 200, and then the walking module 100 moves along the ridge. During the movement of the walking module 100 along the ridge, the pole storage module 200 will intermittently release individual thin poles. First, the flipping module 300 can receive and clamp the individual thin poles released by the pole storage module 200. Then, the flipping module 300 changes the thin pole from a horizontal state to a vertical state. Then, the pole insertion module 400 inserts the vertical thin pole into the soil. Finally, the tying module 500 ties the thin pole inserted into the soil to the corresponding chili pepper stem, completing the pole insertion and tying work of the chili pepper seedlings. This pole insertion and tying machine can adapt to complex terrain environments and enter the greenhouse to carry out high-efficiency pole insertion and tying work of seedlings. Moreover, the machine cost is low and small farmers can afford it.

[0035] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The walking module 100 includes a frame 110, two drive wheels 120, two casters 130, and two first rotation drive components 140. The two drive wheels 120 are positioned opposite each other and spaced apart on the front side of the frame 110, with their axles rotatably connected to the frame 110. The two casters 130 are positioned opposite each other and spaced apart on the rear side of the frame 110, with their wheel frames fixedly connected to the frame 110. The output ends of the two first rotation drive components 140 are connected one-to-one with the two drive wheels 120, driving the corresponding drive wheel 120 to rotate. When the output speeds of the two first rotation drive components 140 are the same, the walking module 100 moves along... When traveling in a straight line, the two drive wheels 120 have a differential speed when the output speeds of the two first rotating drive components 140 are different, thus achieving steering. The drive wheels 120 are 10-inch rubber sand wheels, and the universal wheels 130 facilitate the front wheels to drive the rear wheels to steer, giving the walking module 100 more flexible steering ability in the field. The walking module 100 adopts a front-wheel drive mode, which can better adapt to the sandy loam soil environment of farmland. The first rotating drive component 140 is a hub motor, which simplifies the structure of the walking module 100, reduces the weight of the entire device to a certain extent, reduces the degree of sinking of the device in the farmland, and facilitates the movement of the device. The tires adopt a zigzag tread pattern to reduce rolling resistance, reduce sideslip, and provide good handling stability.

[0036] In a preferred embodiment, the walking module 100 is equipped with an inertial navigation system, GPS, and IMU positioning. The inertial navigation system enables the detection of the absolute spatial path of the device during its movement and transmits the data to a host computer via wireless communication. The GPS positioning system can locate the current position of the device and send the target points to be passed through to the host computer. By combining GPS image information with deep learning to judge the road conditions, the optimal route can be planned. The IMU and GPS work together to control the direction of movement of the device, enabling the device to move along the planned route.

[0037] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The rod storage module 200 includes a rod storage box 210 and a rod conveying unit 220. The rod storage box 210 has a rod inlet and a rod outlet. The rod storage box 210 is fixedly connected to the frame 110. The rod storage box 210 is used to store horizontally placed thin rods. The inlet end of the rod conveying unit 220 is connected to the rod outlet to receive and intermittently convey a single thin rod. The flipping module 300 is located at the end of the rod conveying unit 220. In use, the thin rod falls from the rod outlet by its own weight and reaches the rod conveying unit 220. Since the insertion of rods and binding of branches requires a certain operating cycle, the rod conveying unit 220 can ensure that a single thin rod is conveyed at a certain distance.

[0038] In a preferred embodiment, the top surface of the rod storage box 210 is open to form the rod inlet, which facilitates the insertion of thin rods into the rod storage box 210 through the opening on the top surface of the rod storage box 210.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment, the top plate of the rod storage box 210 is tilted downward toward the side where the rod outlet is located, so that the thin rod inside the rod storage box 210 rolls down to the rod outlet.

[0040] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The rod-moving unit 220 includes two fixed plates 221, two movable plates 222, a rod-moving drive assembly 223, and two guide assemblies 224. The two fixed plates 221 are arranged opposite to each other and spaced apart, and are both fixedly connected to the frame 110. The top of each of the two fixed plates 221 has a first stepped structure 2211, which is used to support the two ends of the thin rod. The two movable plates 222 are slidably connected to the two fixed plates 221 one by one. The top of each of the two movable plates 222 has a second stepped structure 2221. The rod-moving drive assembly 223 is connected to both movable plates 222 and is used to drive the two movable plates 222 to move up and down synchronously, so that the second stepped structure 2221 transports the thin rod step by step to the frame 110. The upper step of the first stepped structure 2211 is connected to the fixed plate 221 and the movable plate 222 in a one-to-one correspondence by two guide components 224, which guide the vertical movement of the movable plate 222. The two fixed plates 221 and the two movable plates 222 are set to receive and transport the two ends of the thin rod, which can ensure the stability of the thin rod during the transmission process and avoid the thin rod from swaying or tipping over. The rod driving component 223 drives the two movable plates 222 to move up and down synchronously. Through the vertical position difference between the first stepped structure 2211 and the second stepped structure 2221, the second stepped structure 2221 can transport the thin rod step by step to the upper step of the first stepped structure 2211. When the thin rod reaches the end of the step, it slides onto the flipping module 300.

[0041] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The bottom surfaces of each step of the first stepped structure 2211 are inclined downwards towards the step above, and the bottom surfaces of each step of the second stepped structure 2221 are inclined downwards towards the step above, so that the thin rod can slide down to the step above.

[0042] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The two movable plates 222 and the two fixed plates 221 are slidably connected to each other on their adjacent sides. The rod driving assembly 223 is disposed between the two movable plates 222. The rod driving assembly 223 includes two rotating wheels 2231, two connecting shafts 2232, and a second rotation driving member 2233. The movable plates 222 are provided with connecting grooves 2222, which are arranged at an angle. One end of each of the two connecting shafts 2232 is eccentrically fixedly connected to the two rotating wheels 2231, and the other end of each connecting shaft 2232 is connected to the two connecting grooves 2231. The two rotating drive components 2233 and 2231 are connected in a one-to-one sliding connection. The two output ends of the second rotating drive component 2233 are coaxially and fixedly connected to the two rotating wheels 2231 in a one-to-one correspondence. The two rotating wheels 2231 are driven to rotate synchronously. The synchronous rotation of the two output ends of the second rotating drive component 2233 will drive the two rotating wheels 2231 to rotate synchronously, and drive the two connecting shafts 2232 to rotate synchronously eccentrically. During the eccentric rotation of the connecting shafts 2232, the movable plate 222 will be driven to move up and down relative to the fixed plate 221.

[0043] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The second rotation drive 2233 is a dual-axis motor, which can synchronously drive the two rotating wheels 2231.

[0044] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The guide assembly 224 includes multiple guide shafts 2241, and the movable plate 222 has multiple guide grooves 2223. Each guide groove 2223 is inclined and perpendicular to the connecting groove 2222. One end of each guide shaft 2241 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 221, and the other end of each guide shaft 2241 is slidably connected to each guide groove 2223. Through the cooperation of the guide grooves 2223 and the guide shafts 2241, the movement of the connecting shaft 2232 can be guided and limited, making the up-and-down movement of the movable plate 222 more stable.

[0045] In a preferred embodiment, the rod storage module 200 further includes an adjustment unit connected to the rod storage box 210, which is used to adjust the opening width of the rod outlet. Since the diameters of different batches of rods are different, in order to ensure that rods from different batches can be discharged from the rod outlet and that only one rod from each batch is allowed to be discharged from the rod outlet at a time, the opening width of the rod outlet needs to be adjusted.

[0046] In a preferred embodiment, the adjustment unit includes an adjustment plate and a telescopic drive component. The adjustment plate is slidably connected to the plate surface of the rod outlet on the rod storage box 210 and is sealed at the rod outlet. The telescopic drive component is fixedly connected to the frame 110, and the output end of the telescopic drive component is connected to the adjustment plate to drive the adjustment plate to move back and forth, thereby adjusting the opening width of the rod outlet.

The X-axis moving unit 550 is connected to both the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 520, and is used to drive the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 520 to move closer to each other or further apart in the horizontal plane along the traveling direction of the walking module 100. The Y-axis moving unit 560 is connected to the X-axis moving unit 550, and is used to drive the X-axis moving unit 550 to reciprocate in the horizontal plane along a direction perpendicular to the traveling direction of the walking module 100. The Z-axis moving unit 570 is connected to the Y-axis moving unit 560, and is used to drive the Y-axis moving unit 560 to move up and down. In the initial position, the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 520 are in a state of being far apart. Furthermore, the storage tray 510, the clamping unit 520, the blade 530, and the knotting unit 540 are all located inside the thin rod. When the lower end of the thin rod is inserted into the soil, the binding module 500 moves to the thin rod under the drive of the walking module 100, keeping the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 520 located on both sides of the thin rod. The Y-axis moving unit 560 drives the X-axis moving unit 550 to move outward in the horizontal plane along a direction perpendicular to the travel direction of the walking module 100, so that the storage tray 510, the clamping unit 520, the blade 530, and the knotting unit 540 reach the outside of the thin rod. The X-axis moving unit 550 drives the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 520 to move outward in the horizontal plane along a direction perpendicular to the travel direction of the walking module 100, so that the storage tray 510, the clamping unit 520, the blade 530, and the knotting unit 540 reach the outside of the thin rod. The clamping unit 520 moves closer to each other in the horizontal plane along the traveling direction of the traveling module 100. When the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 520 are close together, the clamping unit 520 clamps the end of the strap. The X-axis moving unit 550 drives the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 520 to move away from each other in the horizontal plane along the traveling direction of the traveling module 100, and pulls out the strap. The Y-axis moving unit 560 drives the X-axis moving unit 550 to move inward in the horizontal plane along a direction perpendicular to the traveling direction of the traveling module 100, so that the storage tray 510, the clamping unit 520, the blade 530 and the knotting unit 540 reach the inside of the thin rod.When the storage tray 510, clamping unit 520, blade 530, and knotting unit 540 reach the inner side of the thin rod, the Y-axis moving unit 560 continues to drive the X-axis moving unit 550 to move inward in the horizontal plane along a direction perpendicular to the travel direction of the traveling module 100. Simultaneously, the X-axis moving unit 550 drives the storage tray 510 and clamping unit 520 to move closer to each other in the horizontal plane along the travel direction of the traveling module 100. The pulled-out strap is secured to the thin rod, the blade 530 cuts the strap near the tape outlet 511, and the clamping unit 520 releases the strap. At the end, simultaneously, the knotting unit 540 knots the binding tape, completing one binding. The Z-axis moving unit 570 drives the Y-axis moving unit 560 to move up or down to different heights, repeating the above actions to complete other bindings, thereby achieving binding at different heights and improving the binding effect. Small branch binding tools, mainly handheld, use high-adhesive materials as the core binding tape, which have problems with consumables and machinery, cannot be used for a long time, and have low reliability. Some large-scale machines have problems such as high consumption of nail consumables and easy mechanical failures such as nail jamming. This pole binding machine has relatively high efficiency and ease of maintenance.

During the process of the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 520 moving closer to each other in the horizontal plane along the traveling direction of the traveling module 100, the end of the storage tray 510 close to the clamping unit 520 pushes the movable member 523 inward along the traveling direction of the traveling module 100, so that the movable member 523 reaches the second position.When the movable member 523 reaches the second position, the second segment 52212 corresponds to the fourth segment 52312. The through shaft 525 is initially located at the junction of the third segment 52311 and the fourth segment 52312. The second elastic member pushes the clamping member 524 to move along a direction perpendicular to the travel module 100, so as to approach the movable member 523 and clamp the end of the strap together with the movable member 523. The through shaft 525 is finally located at the end of the second segment 52212 away from the first segment 52211, and finally located at the end of the fourth segment 52312 away from the third segment 52311. The clamping member 524 is in a locked state. The end of the storage tray 510 near the clamping unit 520 continues to push the movable member 523 inward along the travel direction of the travel module 100, so that the movable member 523 reaches the third position. The clamping member 524 moves along a direction perpendicular to the travel direction of the travel module 100. The material storage tray 510 moves the movable part 523 away from the moving part 523 and loosens the end of the strap together with the movable part 523. When the movable part 523 reaches the third position, the through shaft 525 is located at the outer end of the third segment 52311 and at the junction of the first segment 52211 and the second segment 52212.

When the movable part 523 reaches the fourth position, the through shaft 525 is located at the inner end of the first segment 52211, and the clamping member 524 is in a locked state. When the end of the material storage tray 510 near the clamping unit 520 loosens the movable part 523 and gradually moves away from the clamping unit 520, the first elastic member pushes the movable part 523 outward along the traveling direction of the walking module 100, and the movable part 523 reaches the first position. ,

The output end of the seventh rotation drive 5563 rotates in the forward or reverse direction, which will drive the driving wheel 5561 to rotate in the forward or reverse direction. Since the moving belt 553 is wound around the driving wheel 5561 and the driven wheel 5562, the driven wheel 5562 can be driven to rotate in the forward or reverse direction via the moving belt 553, thereby realizing the circular reciprocating motion of the moving belt 553.

The output end of the ninth rotation drive member 574 rotates in the forward or reverse direction, which will drive the second lead screw 572 to rotate in the forward or reverse direction. Since the second lead screw 572 and the lifting plate 573 are screwed on through the second screw hole, and the lifting plate 573 is restricted by the second guide rod 571, the lifting plate 573 moves up and down.

[0065] To better understand this invention, the following is combined with... Figure 1 - Figure 10 The working principle of the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below:

[0066] In use, the thin pole to be inserted and tied is placed horizontally in the pole storage box 210, and then the walking module 100 moves along the ridge. During the movement of the walking module 100 along the ridge, the thin pole falls from the pole outlet under its own weight and reaches the pole transport unit 220. The two output ends of the second rotation drive 2233 rotate synchronously, which drives the two rotating wheels 2231 to rotate synchronously, and drives the two connecting shafts 2232 to rotate synchronously eccentrically. During the eccentric rotation of the connecting shafts 2232, the movable plate 222 moves up and down relative to the fixed plate 221. Through the difference in the vertical position of the first stepped structure 2211 and the second stepped structure 2221, the pole can move up and down. The second stepped structure 2221 gradually transports the thin rod to the upper step of the first stepped structure 2211. When the thin rod reaches the end of the step, both ends of the thin rod slide into the first clamping groove 31111 and the second clamping groove 31121, respectively. By manipulating the third rotation drive 3132, the output end of the third rotation drive 3132 drives the drive rod 3131 to rotate in the forward direction, and drives each of the clamps 3122 to pass through each of the through grooves 31122 one by one, so that each of the clamps 3122 moves into the second clamping groove 31121, and together with the second fixed clamping part 3112, clamps the thin rod. The fourth rotation drive 325 drives the rotating rod. When the rotating rod 324 rotates in the reverse direction, it will cause the pin connected to the guide sleeve 323 to slide in the arc groove 3211. At this time, the limiting sleeve 322 will rotate relative to the mounting plate 321. The connecting rod 3113 will change from a horizontal state to a vertical state under the restriction of the limiting sleeve 322 and the guide sleeve 323. Subsequently, the output end of the fifth rotation drive 433 drives the short rod 432 to rotate. During the rotation of the short rod 432, it will drive the pressure plate 420 to move downward through the transmission action of the long rod 431. During the downward movement of the pressure plate 420, it will contact the top of the thin rod and press the thin rod downward, so that the thin rod... The lower end of the thin rod is inserted into the soil. When the lower end of the thin rod is inserted into the soil, the binding module 500 moves to the thin rod under the drive of the walking module 100, and keeps the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 520 on both sides of the thin rod. The Y-axis moving unit 560 drives the X-axis moving unit 550 to move outward in the horizontal plane along the direction of travel perpendicular to the walking module 100, so that the storage tray 510, the clamping unit 520, the blade 530 and the knotting unit 540 reach the outside of the thin rod. The X-axis moving unit 550 drives the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 520 to move closer to each other in the horizontal plane along the direction of travel of the walking module 100.As the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 520 move closer to each other in the horizontal plane along the traveling direction of the traveling module 100, the end of the storage tray 510 near the clamping unit 520 pushes the movable member 523 inward along the traveling direction of the traveling module 100, so that the movable member 523 reaches the second position. When the movable member 523 reaches the second position, the second segment 52212 corresponds to the fourth segment 52312. The through shaft 525 is first located at the junction of the third segment 52311 and the fourth segment 52312. The second elastic member pushes the clamping member 524 to move along a direction perpendicular to the traveling direction of the traveling module 100, so as to approach the movable member 523. The component 523, together with the movable component 523, clamps the end of the strap. The through shaft 525 is located at the end of the second segment 52212 away from the first segment 52211, and at the end of the fourth segment 52312 away from the third segment 52311. The clamping component 524 is in a locked state. The X-axis moving unit 550 drives the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 520 to move away from each other in the horizontal plane along the traveling direction of the traveling module 100, and pulls out the strap. The Y-axis moving unit 560 drives the X-axis moving unit 550 to move inward in the horizontal plane along the traveling direction perpendicular to the traveling module 100, so that the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 523... 0. When the blade 530 and the knotting unit 540 reach the inner side of the thin rod, after the storage tray 510, the clamping unit 520, the blade 530, and the knotting unit 540 reach the inner side of the thin rod, the Y-axis moving unit 560 continues to drive the X-axis moving unit 550 to move inward in the horizontal plane along the direction perpendicular to the travel module 100. At the same time, the X-axis moving unit 550 drives the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 520 to move closer to each other in the horizontal plane along the travel direction of the travel module 100. The pulled-out strap is clamped onto the thin rod. The end of the storage tray 510 near the clamping unit 520 continues to push the movable part 523 along the travel module 100. The moving part 523 moves inward along the direction of travel of the walking module 100 to reach the third position. The clamping part 524 moves away from the moving part 523 along the direction of travel perpendicular to the walking module 100, and together with the moving part 523, loosens the end of the strap. When the moving part 523 reaches the third position, the through shaft 525 is located at the outer end of the third segment 52311 and at the junction of the first segment 52211 and the second segment 52212. The end of the storage tray 510 near the clamping unit 520 continues to push the moving part 523 inward along the direction of travel of the walking module 100 to reach the fourth position. When the moving part 523 reaches the fourth position...The through shaft 525 is located at the inner end of the first segment 52211, and the clamping member 524 is in a locked state. At the same time, the sixth rotation drive member 543 drives the twisting disc 541 to rotate. During the rotation of the twisting disc 541, each of the knotting rods 542 can roll the binding tape into the corresponding knotting seam 544 to tie the binding tape. While tying the binding tape, the blade 530 cuts the binding tape near the tape outlet 511 to complete a binding. The X-axis moving unit 550 drives the storage disc 510 and the clamping unit 520 to move away from each other in the horizontal plane along the traveling direction of the walking module 100. When the material tray 510 releases the movable part 523 near the clamping unit 520 and gradually moves away from the clamping unit 520, the first elastic member pushes the movable part 523 outward along the traveling direction of the walking module 100. When the movable part 523 reaches the first position, the Z-axis moving unit 570 drives the Y-axis moving unit 560 to move upward or downward to different heights. This process is repeated to complete other binding operations, thus achieving binding at different heights. This stalk-tying machine can adapt to complex terrain environments and enter greenhouses for efficient stalk-tying of seedlings. Furthermore, the machine has low costs, making it affordable for small-scale farmers.

[0067] The pole-insertion and branch-tying machine provided by this invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0068] (1) During the process of the storage tray 510 and the clamping unit 520 moving closer to each other in the horizontal plane along the traveling direction of the traveling module 100, the end of the storage tray 510 near the clamping unit 520 pushes the movable part 523 inward along the traveling direction of the traveling module 100, so that the movable part 523 reaches the second position. When the movable part 523 reaches the second position, the second segment 52212 corresponds to the fourth segment 52312. The through shaft 525 is first located at the junction of the third segment 52311 and the fourth segment 52312. The second elastic... The clamping member 524 is pushed to move along a direction perpendicular to the travel direction of the walking module 100, so as to approach the movable member 523 and clamp the end of the strap together with the movable member 523. The through shaft 525 is located at the end of the second segment 52212 away from the first segment 52211, and at the end of the fourth segment 52312 away from the third segment 52311. The clamping member 524 is in a locked state. The end of the storage tray 510 near the clamping unit 520 continues to push the movable member 523 inward along the travel direction of the walking module 100, so that the movable member... When the third position is reached, the clamping member 524 moves along a direction perpendicular to the travel direction of the walking module 100 to move away from the movable member 523 and, together with the movable member 523, loosens the end of the strap. When the movable member 523 reaches the third position, the through shaft 525 is located at the outer end of the third segment 52311 and at the junction of the first segment 52211 and the second segment 52212. The end of the storage tray 510 near the clamping unit 520 continues to push the movable member 523 inward along the travel direction of the walking module 100, so that the movable member 523 reaches the third position. In the fourth position, when the movable part 523 reaches the fourth position, the through shaft 525 is located at the inner end of the first segment 52211, and the clamping part 524 is in a locked state. When the storage tray 510 releases the movable part 523 near the clamping unit 520 and gradually moves away from the clamping unit 520, the first elastic element pushes the movable part 523 to move outward along the traveling direction of the walking module 100. When the movable part 523 reaches the first position, the clamping, pulling, clamping and loosening actions of the strap are linked, which can realize the self-clamping and self-loosening of the strap without the need for additional driving components.

[0069] (2) Small branch binding tools that are mainly hand-held and use high-tech adhesive materials as the core binding tape have problems in terms of consumables and machinery, cannot be used for a long time, and have low reliability. A small number of large machines have problems such as high consumption of nail consumables and easy to cause mechanical failures such as nail jamming. This pole binding machine has relatively high efficiency and ease of maintenance.

[0070] (3) This stalk-inserting and branch-tying machine can adapt to complex terrain environments and enter the greenhouse to carry out efficient stalk-inserting and branch-tying work for seedlings. Moreover, the machine cost is low and small farmers can afford it.
