Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention provides a fully automatic eggplant seedling transplanter, belonging to the technical field of agricultural equipment. Background Art
[0002] With the development of modern agricultural technology, automation and intelligence have become the key to improving agricultural production efficiency and reducing labor costs. Vegetable seedling transplanting is an important part of vegetable planting. The traditional manual transplanting method is inefficient and labor-intensive. In addition, its working object is tender seedlings, with many parameters and many complex objectives to meet the trajectory and posture requirements of the working parts. The functional relationship between the series parameters and each objective is highly coupled, and the optimization design is difficult. At present, semi-automatic vegetable seedling pot transplanting machines have been widely used in my country. This type of machine has a simple structure, low price, and stable performance, but the seedling removal and placement are completed manually, and only the planting action is completed by machinery. Manual feeding of seedlings is required, the production efficiency is low, the labor intensity is high, and it is difficult to ensure uniform plant spacing.
[0003] Semi-automatic transplanters use manual seedling removal and then send them to the planting mechanism for mechanized planting. They are currently the most widely used and largest type of transplanter.
[0004] However, this device has the following problems:
[0005] Low transplanting efficiency: The actual transplanting efficiency of existing film transplanters does not exceed 2,800 plants per hour per row. Each transplanter requires at least two people to work at the same time, that is, the operating efficiency of each transplanter is about 2-3 times that of manual transplanting.
[0006] Low degree of automation: Most of the transplanters currently in use in my country are semi-automatic transplanters, and fully automatic transplanters are in the research and development stage. Semi-automatic transplanters require manual seedling placement and cannot liberate human labor to a high degree.
[0007] The reliability of transplanting is not high: the transplanting machines currently on the market can realize the transplanting function, but the reliability needs to be improved. During the transplanting process, there will be problems such as low transplanting uprightness, missing seedlings, carrying seedlings, seedling injury, and film hanging. Summary of the invention
[0008] In view of the above technical problems, the present invention provides a fully automatic eggplant seedling transplanter to achieve the following objectives:
[0009] 1. Automatically complete the vegetable seedling planting process.
[0010] The design includes soil preparation mechanism, seedling picking mechanism, seedling placing mechanism, soil covering mechanism and watering system, which organically integrate the above mechanisms and systems into one machine. The seedling picking mechanism is equipped with a high-definition camera, which can find the specific position of the vegetable seedlings in the seedling tray in real time, providing a good reference for seedling picking, and improving the success rate and speed of seedling picking. In addition, a pressure sensor is installed on the seedling picking mechanism. Through experiments and research, we have found that each seedling can withstand a pressure of about 5N. By setting the parameters of the pressure sensor, the claws of the seedling picking mechanism are made more flexible and stable. It can not only protect the seedlings well, but also improve the success rate of seedling picking. The seedling placing mechanism composed of a parallelogram mechanism completes the up and down movement and the opening and closing of the seedling placing cup when placing the seedlings through the rotation of the servo. The next step is soil covering and watering.
[0011] The project completed the whole process of vegetable seedling transplanting by cleverly combining soil preparation mechanism, seedling taking mechanism, seedling placing mechanism, soil covering mechanism and watering system.
[0012] 2. Improve transplanting efficiency and reduce labor costs.
[0013] The transplanter integrates the functions of soil preparation, seedling removal, seedling placement, soil covering and watering. It does not require manual assistance, reducing the time and labor intensity of manual operation. It can also accurately control the spacing between plants, rows and depth to ensure that each seedling can get the appropriate growth space and soil depth, which is conducive to improving the growth quality and yield of vegetables. Compared with manual transplanting, the fully automatic transplanter can significantly improve work efficiency. For example, one machine can complete the vegetable transplanting work of three acres of land in one hour, which is equivalent to 30 manual workers, greatly saving time and labor costs. In addition, machine operation can ensure the standardization and consistency of transplanting operations, which is conducive to subsequent field management and mechanized operations.
[0014] The fully automatic vegetable seedling transplanter significantly improves transplanting efficiency and reduces labor costs through automation, precise control, high efficiency, reduced labor demand, lower costs, wide applicability, reduced damage and standardized operations.
[0015] 3. Ensure the quality of transplanting and improve the survival rate of vegetable seedlings.
[0016] In the process of transplanting vegetable seedlings, the most important and difficult part is the seedling removal and seedling placement. Our team solved this pain point by using a flexible seedling removal mechanism equipped with a camera and a pressure sensor to monitor the mechanism's operation in real time and provide feedback, ultimately adjusting the seedling removal parameters better. This ensures that the vegetable seedlings are well protected during the two processes of seedling removal and seedling placement, ensuring the quality of transplantation and improving the survival rate of vegetable seedlings.
[0017] 4. Simple design, easy operation and low maintenance cost.
[0018] Although this machine has many mechanisms and systems, its mechanism design is simple, which makes it easy for people to operate and has a relatively low maintenance cost.

[0022] The seedling picking mechanism is composed of a gear rack mechanism, and a flexible component is used to pick up the vegetable seedlings;
[0023] The seedling placing mechanism adopts a parallelogram four-bar mechanism and a duckbill seedling cup, and realizes the up and down movement when the seedlings are placed and completes the opening and closing of the seedling placing cup through the rotation of the motor.
[0024] The soil covering and watering mechanism comprises:
[0025] The soil covering mechanism uses a crank slider mechanism. The rotation of the soil covering servo drives the rotary motion of the soil holding crank, thereby converting the rotary motion of the soil holding crank into the linear motion of the soil holding slider to achieve the final soil covering function.
[0026] Watering system: It adopts a cam mechanism. When the reduction motor rotates, it will drive the cam to rotate, so that the system can complete the watering task.

[0038] The first and second seedling taking screws cooperate with the first and second sliders to control the movement of the main body of the seedling taking mechanism in the front-back direction, the third seedling taking screw cooperates with the third slider to determine the movement in the left-right direction, and the fourth seedling taking screw cooperates with the fourth slider to control the movement in the up-down direction. The guide groove plate provides a specific movement track for the seedling taking clamp. When the seedling taking clamp starts to take the seedling, the fourth slider moves downward, and the two steering gear sliders are restricted by the guide groove and move closer to each other to achieve accurate seedling taking. After taking the seedling, the fourth slider moves upward, and the steering gear sliders move away from each other to achieve accurate delivery.
[0039] The seedling placing mechanism comprises a first crank, a second crank, a rocker, a seedling placing duckbill cup, and a driving gear;
[0040] The transmission shaft passes through the frame and cooperates with the driving gear. The first transmission gear is installed on the frame and meshes with the driving gear. The second transmission gear is installed on the frame and meshes with the first transmission gear. The third transmission gear and the fourth transmission gear are of the same size.

The movement of the soil raking slider is transmitted to the simulation hand through the connecting rod, driving the soil covering plate to close. When the water tank is drained, the water discharge cam is driven to rotate through the reduction motor to realize intermittent water discharge.
[0046] Beneficial effects brought by the technical solution of the present invention:
[0047] First, it improves transplanting efficiency. It can transplant a large number of eggplant seedlings per unit time, which is many times faster than manual transplanting. In large-scale planting scenarios, manual transplanting may only complete a few acres of land a day, while the automatic transplanter can complete the transplanting of several acres of land in the same time.
[0048] Second, the quality of transplanting is good. The automatic transplanter can ensure that the parameters such as the depth and spacing of eggplant seedlings are relatively consistent. Accurate transplanting depth helps the root system of eggplant seedlings grow better and absorb nutrients. Appropriate spacing can ensure that there is sufficient space, light and ventilation conditions during the growth of eggplant, thereby improving the yield and quality of eggplant.
[0049] The third is to reduce labor intensity. Using automatic transplanters instead of manual transplanting, farmers do not need to bend over for a long time, which greatly reduces the physical burden, reduces labor input, and reduces labor costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
