Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention patent relates to the technical field of desert willow planting, specifically to a device for planting willows. Background Technology

[0002] Yellow willow is an important vegetation that can survive in harsh environments and can stabilize sand. It is a good tree species for afforestation in some desert areas. Its planting method is generally propagation by cuttings. Currently, the method involves drilling holes at certain depths at intervals in the desert, planting willow branches in the holes, and then covering them with soil to complete the planting. Drilling holes, inserting branches, and covering with soil all require manual operation, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient, and cannot be adapted to large-scale planting of willow branches.

[0003] Moreover, sand barriers are the most mature and widespread method of windbreak and sand fixation design. Vertical strip sand barriers involve inserting willow branches into the sand, leaving them protruding to a certain height. Currently, laying vertical strip sand barriers mostly involves using trenchers to dig trenches, manually inserting the branches, and then covering them with soil. This method is not only labor-intensive, but also makes it difficult to control the burial depth, thus failing to achieve a good sand-sealing effect.

[0004] Among them, application number CN202311601387.1 discloses a willow planting device for desert planting. The device uses a motor to drive a loosening wheel to loosen the soil intermittently, and uses a placement frame to store sand willows. The first rotating plate rotates to cover and open the placement frame, thereby completing the intermittent planting of willows. When the second rotating plate rotates inward, it pushes the excavated sand inward, thereby completing the soil covering of the willows, thus achieving a better cultivation effect. However, the above-mentioned device has the following problems: 1. It requires workers to insert the willow branches one by one into the holes on the placement frame, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient; 2. The holes on the placement frame are equipped with torsion springs and rotating plates. The torsion springs are prone to damage, which can cause the holes on the placement frame to fail to close, resulting in malfunction and a short service life; 3. During planting, the willow branches fall directly from the holes on the placement frame onto the sand below, which can easily cause the willow branches to fall over, resulting in poor planting results; 4. The inner walls of the holes on the placement frame in the above-mentioned device are prone to being clogged by soil. The holes on the placement frame also need to be wiped regularly by a wiping device, which is complicated and cumbersome and not suitable for large-scale willow planting. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0025] The present invention will be further described in detail below through embodiments.

[0026] Example 1: As Figure 1 As shown, a device for planting willow branches includes: a frame 1, a traction frame 2, a conveying mechanism 3, a material receiving hopper 4, and a planting mechanism 5. The traction frame 2 is fixedly installed at one end of the frame 1, and height-adjustable depth-limiting wheels 6 are rotatably installed on both sides of the frame 1 to facilitate adjustment of the height of the frame 1, thereby adjusting the trenching depth to meet the depth requirements for willow planting. Two conveying mechanisms 3 are installed on the frame 1. A material receiving hopper 4 is fixedly installed on the frame 1 below the discharge end of the conveying mechanism 3, and the planting mechanism 5 is installed on the frame 1 below the outlet of the material receiving hopper 4. Figure 4 and 5As shown, the planting mechanism 5 includes a sleeve 501, a movable rod 502, a spring 503, a rotating shaft 504, a rotating shaft 505, a fish-scale roller 506, and a hydraulic motor 507. Two sleeves 501 are fixedly installed on the frame 1 below the outlet of the receiving hopper 4. A movable rod 502 is movably inserted into each sleeve 501. A bearing seat 508 is fixed to one end of the movable rod 502 near the outlet of the receiving hopper 4. A spring 503 is sleeved on the movable rod 502, with one end of the spring 503 fixed to the bearing seat 508. The other end is fixed to the sleeve 501 to accommodate the friction of willow twigs of different thicknesses, allowing them to insert into the sand. A rotating shaft 504 is installed between two bearing seats 508. Two bearing seats 509 are fixed on the frame 1 on the other side below the outlet of the material receiving hopper 4. A rotating shaft 505 is installed between the two bearing seats 509. The axes of the rotating shaft 504 and the rotating shaft 505 are parallel to each other, and the rotating shafts 504 and 505 are arranged along the ditching direction of the ditch opener 7, ensuring that the two fish scale rollers 506... The thinned willow branches are inserted along the ditch; fish-scale rollers 506 are fixedly fitted on the rotating shaft 1 504 and rotating shaft 2 505 respectively. Pushed and guided by the two fish-scale rollers 506, the willow branches are smoothly inserted into the sand, preventing them from falling over and resulting in good planting effect; a hydraulic motor 1 507 is fixedly installed on the frame 1; a chain wheel 1 510 is coaxially fixed at one end of the rotating shaft 1 504; a chain wheel 2 511 is coaxially fixed at one end of the rotating shaft 2 505; a transmission is fitted between the output end of the hydraulic motor 1 507 and the chain wheel 2 511. The drive chain 512; the chain wheel 510 meshes with the lower outer side of the drive chain 512. Under its own weight, the drive chain 512 is positioned above the chain wheel 510, ensuring that the chain wheel 510 can mesh well with the lower outer side of the drive chain 512 when it moves with the extension and retraction of the spring 503; a "U"-shaped baffle plate 513 is fixed on the frame 1 below the two fish scale rollers 506. The lower sides of the baffle plate 513 are inclined towards the center line of the two fish scale rollers 506, further ensuring that the willow branches are inserted vertically downward into the groove, thus playing a guiding role.

[0027] A trencher 7 is fixed below the frame 1 in front of the outlet of the receiving hopper 4. A soil covering plate 8 is rotatably installed below the frame 1 on both sides behind the outlet of the receiving hopper 4. After the willow branches are inserted into the trench, the soil covering plates 8 on both sides cover the soil. A pressing roller 9 is rotatably installed below the frame 1 behind each soil covering plate 8. After the soil is covered, the pressing roller 9 on both sides compacts the soil to ensure the planting effect of the willow branches.

[0028] A placement frame 10 is fixed on the frame 1 at the feeding end of the conveying mechanism 3. The placement frame 10 extends downward towards the feeding end of the conveying mechanism 3. Standing frames 11 are fixed on the frame 1 on both sides of the placement frame 10. Willow branches are placed on the placement frame 10 and slide along the placement frame 10 towards the feeding end of the conveying mechanism 3. The worker stands on the standing frame 11 and manually pushes to control the willow branches to be inserted one by one into the slot 38, so as to avoid them piling up and falling onto the conveying mechanism 3. This ensures that the willow branches fall into the receiving hopper 4 one by one as much as possible, without the need for manual extraction and placement, saving time and effort and improving work efficiency.

[0029] like Figure 2-3 As shown, the conveying mechanism 3 includes a driving roller 31, a driven roller 32, a second hydraulic motor 33, and a conveying chain 34. The driving roller 31 and driven roller 32 are rotatably mounted on the frame 1. The second hydraulic motor 33 is fixedly mounted on the frame 1. The output end of the second hydraulic motor 33 is connected to one end of the driving roller 31 via a sprocket drive. At least two driving sprockets 35 are fixedly mounted on the driving roller 31. Driven sprockets 36, corresponding to the driving sprockets 35, are fixedly mounted on the driven roller 32. The conveying chain 34 is mounted between the driving sprockets 35 and the driven sprockets 36. A limiting plate 37 is integrally formed on the outer side of each side plate of the conveyor chain 34. A groove 38 is formed between adjacent limiting plates 37 for placing willow branches. A stop bar 12 is fixed in the receiving hopper 4 below one edge of the conveyor chain 34. The length direction of the stop bar 12 is consistent with the conveying direction of the conveyor chain 34. When a horizontal willow branch falls into the receiving hopper 4, one end of the branch touches the stop bar 12, causing it to change from horizontal to vertical and fall into the lower outlet of the receiving hopper 4, thus preventing the horizontal willow branch from getting stuck in the receiving hopper 4 and ensuring that the willow branch falls vertically between the two fish scale rollers 506.

[0030] Working principle: The device of this invention is connected to the rear of a tractor via a traction frame 2. Entering the planting desert, the device is lowered so that the depth-limiting wheel 6 touches the ground, and the furrow opener 7 is inserted into the sand. The tractor then begins to move forward, and hydraulic motors 507 and 33 are started to begin planting willow branches. This invention has a simple structure, avoids the use of numerous easily damaged parts such as torsion springs, is easy to maintain, and has a long service life. Furthermore, this invention does not have the problem of blocked holes on the placement frame 10, requires no wiping, and can be used directly. The operation process is simple and suitable for large-scale willow planting.

[0031] The above are preferred embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
