Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of garlic cultivation technology, specifically to garlic planting components and their adjustment methods. Background Technology

[0002] Garlic is a widely cultivated cash crop in northern my country. Currently, there are two main methods of garlic cultivation: manual planting and automated planting using machinery. Manual garlic cultivation requires people to squat or bend over for extended periods, resulting in high labor intensity and low efficiency. Mechanized garlic cultivation has not yielded ideal results, thus large-scale mechanized garlic cultivation has not been widely developed.

[0003] On September 11, 2020, the applicant applied for a technical solution entitled "Garlic Planter Planting Mechanism" (Authorization Announcement No.: CN111642199B). In this technical solution, the seed pressing transmission chain rotates counterclockwise. During continuous garlic seed planting, the garlic cloves falling into the furrows are gently tapped into the soil by the subsequent seed pressing plate. During long-term use, the applicant found that when the seed pressing plate gently taps the garlic cloves, it causes the garlic cloves to tilt to a certain extent. This tilting reduces the success rate of planting garlic sprouts upwards, thereby reducing the quality of garlic clove planting. Furthermore, on November 13, 2020, the applicant applied for a technical solution entitled "Garlic Planter Single Seed Extraction Mechanism" (Authorization Announcement No.: CN111919559B). In this technical solution, because the pallet of the garlic-picking mechanism and the receiving plate of the garlic cloves in the planting mechanism move in opposite directions in the garlic clove conveying transition area, in order to prevent interference between the pallet and the receiving plate during actual processing, the height difference between the pallet and the receiving plate is relatively large in the garlic clove conveying transition area. The large height difference between the pallet and the receiving plate causes the garlic cloves to fall from a greater height onto the receiving plate. The large difference in the falling height of the garlic cloves causes the garlic cloves to rebound more strongly upon hitting the receiving plate, which in turn causes garlic jamming and makes it impossible to carry out the normal garlic conveying process. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a garlic planting assembly. In this planting mechanism, the garlic cloves are planted using a hole-digging plate without being tapped, thereby further improving the success rate of placing the garlic cloves with the garlic sprouts facing upwards. At the same time, the small height difference between the garlic seed spoon and the hole-digging plate reduces the rebound force of the garlic cloves after they fall into the hole-digging plate, reducing the occurrence of garlic jamming and facilitating smooth transportation during the planting process.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is as follows: a garlic planting assembly, including a seed-collecting chain and a planting chain. The seed-collecting chain is quadrilaterally distributed, and the left and right sides of the seed-collecting chain are both distributed with the upper part inclined to the left relative to the bottom. A plurality of garlic seed scoops are evenly spaced on the seed-collecting chain. The planting chain is located at the lower left of the bottom of the seed-collecting chain. A plurality of digging plates are evenly spaced on the planting chain. A first garlic clove adjusting cover is arranged on the left side of the left side of the seed-collecting chain. A plurality of first through holes are provided on both the front and rear side walls of the first garlic clove adjusting cover. A first adjusting channel is formed between the first garlic clove adjusting cover and the left side of the seed-collecting chain. The first adjusting channel is upward... The garlic cloves are in a through-hole state and the garlic seed spoon can move within the first adjustment channel. The seed-taking chain and the sowing chain can move synchronously, rotating counterclockwise and clockwise respectively. A second garlic clove adjustment cover is provided on the right side of the right side of the sowing chain. A second through hole is provided on the front and rear side walls of the second garlic clove adjustment cover. A second adjustment channel is formed between the second garlic clove adjustment cover and the right side of the sowing chain. The hole-digging plate can move within the second adjustment channel. Garlic cloves flowing out from the bottom of the first adjustment channel can automatically fall into the second adjustment channel. The bottom of the second garlic clove adjustment cover is level with or higher than the bottom of the sowing chain.

[0006] Preferably, the distance between the bottom of the seed-collecting chain and the top of the sowing chain is L1, and L1 is less than the sum of the heights of the garlic seed spoon and the hole-digging plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the garlic planting assembly also includes a garlic-picking shaft, a first power transmission mechanism, and a second power transmission mechanism. The garlic-picking shaft is located on the right side of the right side of the seed-taking chain. Three flexible garlic-picking plates are evenly spaced on the circumferential sidewall of the garlic-picking shaft. The first power transmission mechanism can drive the seed-taking chain to rotate counterclockwise, and the second power transmission mechanism can drive the garlic-picking shaft to rotate clockwise. The first power transmission mechanism includes a first gear, and the second power transmission mechanism includes a second gear. The first gear can mesh with and disengage from the second gear. After the first gear and the second gear disengage, the initial swing position of the flexible garlic-picking plates can be adjusted by rotating the garlic-picking shaft.

[0008] Furthermore, when the flexible garlic-picking plate and the right side of the seed-taking chain are perpendicular to each other, the distance between the outer end face of the flexible garlic-picking plate and the right side of the seed-taking chain is L2, where 3mm≤L2≤5mm.

[0009] Furthermore, the garlic planting assembly also includes a third power transmission mechanism, which enables the first power transmission mechanism to drive the third power transmission mechanism to operate, and the third power transmission mechanism enables the planting chain to rotate clockwise.

[0010] Furthermore, the garlic planting assembly also includes a seed box, with the right side of the seed-collecting chain located inside the seed box on the left side.

[0011] Furthermore, a furrow opener is provided on the left side of the left side of the seeding chain.

[0012] Furthermore, the hole-digging plate is L-shaped, the horizontal plate of the hole-digging plate is connected to the sowing chain, and the vertical plate of the hole-digging plate is shaped like a ping-pong paddle.

[0013] A method for adjusting the use of a garlic planting assembly, comprising the garlic planting assembly described above, further comprising the following:

[0014] Adjust the garlic-peeling distance L3; reasonably set the spacing of the garlic seed spoons on the seed-taking chain, the rotational linear speed of the seed-taking chain, and the rotational angular velocity of the garlic-peeling shaft so that during the synchronous movement of the seed-taking chain and the garlic-peeling shaft, the outer end of the corresponding flexible garlic-peeling plate is always above the corresponding garlic seed spoon; adjust the distance L3 between the flexible garlic-peeling plate, whose outer end is tilted downward and points to the right side of the seed-taking chain, and the garlic seed spoon below it, according to the size of the garlic seed. Specifically, first, make both the seed-taking chain and the garlic-peeling shaft stop running, then separate the first gear and the second gear. After separation, adjust the size of L3 according to the size of the garlic seed. When the garlic seed is small, rotate the second gear to make the corresponding flexible garlic-peeling plate swing counterclockwise, thereby reducing L3; when the garlic seed is large, rotate the second gear to make the corresponding flexible garlic-peeling plate swing clockwise, thereby increasing L3.

[0015] Adjust the coordination between the garlic seed spoon and the hole-digging plate; under the condition that the linear speed of the seed-taking chain and the spacing of the garlic seed spoons are determined, reasonably set the linear speed of the sowing chain and the spacing of the hole-digging plate so that under the condition that the seed-taking chain and the sowing chain are running continuously, each hole-digging plate can just catch a garlic clove falling from the garlic seed spoon.

[0016] During garlic planting, the bottom of the planting chain should be kept roughly level with the ground.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: The invention has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture; the garlic seed spoon and the digging plate at the hinge point between the bottom of the first garlic clove adjusting cover and the upper part of the second garlic clove adjusting cover move in the same direction, thus minimizing the height difference between the garlic seed spoon and the digging plate. This smaller height difference results in less rebound when the garlic clove falls from the garlic seed spoon onto the digging plate, reducing the likelihood of garlic getting stuck in the upper area of ​​the second garlic clove adjusting cover, thereby facilitating normal garlic sowing; during sowing, the digging plate moves in the same direction as the sowing chain at the bottom, preventing further tapping of the garlic clove as it digs holes and places the garlic clove in the soil, ensuring the garlic sprout remains upright and increasing the success rate of upward planting; by adjusting the distance between the flexible garlic-picking plate and the garlic seed spoon, single-seed picking of garlic cloves of different sizes is easily achieved, thus improving the application flexibility of the sowing mechanism.

Detailed Implementation

[0030] The following will describe specific embodiments and appendices. Figure 1-10 The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some preferred embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0031] A garlic planting component (such as) Figure 1As shown), it includes a seed-collecting chain 1 and a sowing chain 2. Both the seed-collecting chain 1 and the sowing chain 2 are derived from ordinary standard chains in the prior art through certain improvements. Specifically, the outer chain plates of the existing standard ordinary chains are replaced with L-shaped outer chain plates. Specifically, the outer chain plate of the seed-collecting chain 1 is the first outer chain plate 12, and the outer chain plate of the sowing chain 2 is the second outer chain plate 22. Both the first outer chain plate 12 and the second outer chain plate 22 are L-shaped. The seed-collecting chain 1 is arranged in a quadrilateral shape, and the left and right sides of the seed-collecting chain 1 are arranged in a state where the upper part is inclined to the left relative to the bottom. Specifically, the seed-collecting chain 1 can be rotated and supported by four quadrilaterally arranged sprockets, using one of them... The sprocket drive enables the rotation of the seed-collecting chain 1. Several garlic seed scoops 11 are evenly spaced on the seed-collecting chain 1, with one scoop 11 positioned on each of two opposing first outer chain plates 12. In practical applications, the garlic seed scoop 11 is used to extract and transport individual garlic cloves, facilitating subsequent single-crop planting. The size of the garlic seed scoop 11 is determined based on the existing size of individual garlic cloves. The planting chain 2 is located at the lower left of the seed-collecting chain 1. Specifically, the planting chain 2 is supported by two vertically distributed sprockets, and the rotation of the planting chain 2 is achieved by driving one of these sprockets. 2. Several digging plates 21 are evenly spaced on the upper part. In practical applications, as the lower part of the digging plate 21 rotates in the soil, it digs holes in the soil. As the digging plate 21 rotates, the garlic cloves on it fall into the dug holes, thus facilitating the planting of garlic cloves. A first garlic clove adjusting cover 3 is set on the left side of the left side of the seed-taking chain 1. Several first through holes 31 are set on the front and rear side walls of the first garlic clove adjusting cover 3. The first garlic clove adjusting cover 3 and the left side of the seed-taking chain 1 form a first adjusting channel. The first adjusting channel is vertically connected and the garlic seed spoon 11 is connected to it. It can move within the first adjustment channel. In practical applications, the first garlic clove adjustment cover 3 is used to adjust the garlic cloves so that the garlic sprouts face upwards. This makes it easier to plant the garlic sprouts upwards in the subsequent planting process. For the specific structure and adjustment principle of the first garlic clove adjustment cover 3, please refer to the utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN219741208U filed by the applicant in an earlier application. Therefore, the specific structure and working principle of the first garlic clove adjustment cover 3 will not be described in detail here. The seed picking chain 1 and the planting chain 2 move synchronously, that is, during the garlic planting process, the seed picking chain 1 and the planting chain 2 run synchronously.Furthermore, the seed-taking chain 1 and the sowing chain 2 rotate counterclockwise and clockwise respectively. A second garlic clove adjusting cover 4 is set on the right side of the right side of the sowing chain 2. A second through hole 41 is provided on both the front and rear side walls of the second garlic clove adjusting cover 4. The function of the second garlic clove adjusting cover 4 is the same as that of the first garlic clove adjusting cover 3, which is to achieve upward adjustment of the garlic sprouts. In practical application, the dual adjustment of the first garlic clove adjusting cover 3 and the second garlic clove adjusting cover 4 can greatly increase the probability of the garlic sprouts growing upwards, thereby ultimately improving the success rate of planting garlic sprouts upwards. The interior of the second garlic clove adjusting cover 4... The spatial cross-section is a square with a side length of 30mm; a second adjustment channel is formed between the second garlic clove adjustment cover 4 and the right side of the sowing chain 2. The digging plate 21 can move within the second adjustment channel. Garlic cloves flowing out from the bottom of the first adjustment channel can automatically fall into the second adjustment channel. In actual application, the garlic seed spoon 11 and a garlic clove located on it move within the first adjustment channel. During the movement of the garlic clove, the adjustment effect of the first garlic clove adjustment cover 3 is used to adjust the garlic sprout upwards. If an individual garlic clove fails to be adjusted in the first adjustment channel, it will fall into the second adjustment channel. After entering the second adjustment channel, as it moves downwards synchronously with the corresponding digging plate 21, it is also readjusted again using the second garlic clove adjustment cover 4. In actual application, the seed-taking chain 1 and the sowing chain 2 rotate counterclockwise and clockwise synchronously, respectively, which allows the garlic seed spoon 11 at the bottom of the seed-taking chain 1 to move from left to right, and at the same time, the digging plate 21 at the top of the sowing chain 2 also moves from left to right. The garlic seed spoon 11 and the digging plate 21 move in the same direction. After reasonably setting the movement speed of the two, the problem of collision and interference between the two can be prevented. The digging plate 21 on the seed chain 2 is used to receive the garlic cloves transported by the garlic seed spoon 11 on the seed-taking chain 1. Therefore, when the garlic seed spoon 11 at the bottom of the seed-taking chain 1 moves in the same direction as the digging plate 21 on the upper part of the seed-taking chain 2, the distance L1 between the bottom of the seed-taking chain 1 and the upper part of the seed-taking chain 2 can be smaller. This reduces the height difference when the garlic cloves fall from the garlic seed spoon 11 to the digging plate 21. A smaller height difference prevents the garlic cloves from jumping significantly on the digging plate 21, thus preventing them from getting stuck in the upper part of the second garlic clove adjusting cover 4, thereby ensuring the normal transport of the garlic cloves. The bottom of the second garlic clove adjusting cover 4 is flush with or higher than the bottom of the seed-taking chain 2. In this specific embodiment, the bottom of the second garlic clove adjusting cover 4 is flush with the bottom of the seed-taking chain 2.

[0032] Based on the above embodiments, in order to minimize the height difference between the garlic cloves falling from the bottom of the first correction channel into the corresponding digging plate 21 in the second correction channel, L1 can be made smaller than the sum of the heights of the garlic seed spoon 11 and the digging plate 21.

[0033] Based on the above embodiments, to improve the success rate of single garlic clove extraction during the garlic extraction process using the garlic seed spoon 11, the garlic planting assembly further includes a garlic-picking shaft 81, a first power transmission mechanism, and a second power transmission mechanism. The garlic-picking shaft 81 is located on the right side of the right side of the seed extraction chain 1. Three flexible garlic-picking plates 811 are evenly spaced on the circumferential sidewall of the garlic-picking shaft 81. The first power transmission mechanism enables the seed extraction chain 1 to rotate counterclockwise, and the second power transmission mechanism enables the garlic-picking shaft 81 to rotate clockwise. The principle of using the flexible garlic-picking plates 811 to remove excess garlic cloves 102 from the garlic seed spoon 11 is as follows: when there are at least two or more garlic cloves 102 on the garlic seed spoon 11... When garlic clove 102 is being picked up, as the garlic seed spoon 11 carries the garlic clove 102 towards the flexible garlic-picking plate 811, when excess garlic cloves enter the effective garlic clove removal area before the flexible garlic-picking plate 811, the excess garlic cloves can be removed during the subsequent rotation of the flexible garlic-picking plate 811, thus enabling the garlic seed spoon 11 to pick up a single seed. The first power transmission mechanism includes a first gear 56, and the second power transmission mechanism includes a second gear 62. The first gear 56 can mesh with and disengage from the second gear 62. After the first gear 56 and the second gear 62 are disengaged, the initial swing position of the flexible garlic-picking plate 811 can be adjusted by rotating the garlic-picking shaft 81. In practical applications, the spacing of the garlic seed spoons 11 on the seed-collecting chain 1, the linear velocity of the seed-collecting chain 1, and the angular velocity of the garlic-dispensing shaft 81 are reasonably set so that during the synchronous movement of the seed-collecting chain 1 and the garlic-dispensing shaft 81, the outer end of the corresponding flexible garlic-dispensing plate 811 is always above the corresponding garlic seed spoon 11. In this specific embodiment, the number of teeth of the drive sprocket driving the seed-collecting chain 1 can be 18, and one garlic seed spoon 11 can be distributed on every six links of the seed-collecting chain 1. The angular velocities of the drive sprocket driving the seed-collecting chain 1 and the garlic-dispensing shaft 81 are the same. This ensures that during the continuous rotation of the seed-collecting chain 1 and the garlic-dispensing shaft 81, the flexible garlic-dispensing plate 811 and the corresponding garlic seed spoon 11 maintain a relatively stable motion state. Figure 8As shown, when a flexible garlic-picking plate 811 moves to position A, a corresponding garlic seed spoon 11 moves to position B. During continuous operation, when the next flexible garlic-picking plate 811 moves to position A again, the next garlic seed spoon 11 also moves to position B again. By utilizing the above-mentioned movement relationship between the flexible garlic-picking plate 811 and the garlic seed spoon 11, the size of L3 can be adjusted. L3 is the distance between the flexible garlic-picking plate 811, which is tilted downwards and points to the right side of the seed-picking chain 1, and the garlic seed spoon 11 below it. After L3 is adjusted, based on the characteristics of chain drive and gear drive, it can be known that the size of L3 will not change much during subsequent continuous movement, thereby achieving the effective removal of excess garlic cloves or small garlic cloves during the single-seed picking process. The specific adjustment process of L3 is as follows: First, both the seed-taking chain 1 and the garlic-picking shaft 81 are stopped. Then, the first gear 56 is disengaged from the second gear 62. After the first gear 56 is disengaged from the second gear 62, the size of L3 is adjusted according to the size of the garlic seed. When the garlic seed is small, the corresponding flexible garlic-picking plate 811 is rotated counterclockwise by rotating the second gear 62, thereby reducing the size of L3. When the garlic seed is large, the corresponding flexible garlic-picking plate 811 is rotated clockwise by rotating the second gear 62, thereby increasing the size of L3. After the size adjustment of L3 is completed, the first gear 56 and the second gear 62 are engaged, thus completing one adjustment process of the size of L3. The thickness and width of existing small garlic cloves are basically above 15mm, and the thickness and width of large garlic cloves are basically above 23mm. Therefore, when adjusting the size of L3, it can be adjusted according to the specific stacking form of garlic cloves and the width and thickness values ​​of garlic cloves when at least two garlic cloves are taken at a time during the process of extracting garlic cloves or small garlic cloves with garlic clove spoon 11.

[0034] Based on the above embodiments, the specific implementation method for synchronously rotating the seed-harvesting chain 1 and the garlic-picking shaft 81 using the first and second power transmission mechanisms is as follows: The first power transmission mechanism further includes a ground wheel 51, a first transmission shaft 52, a second transmission shaft 53, a third transmission shaft 54, and a fourth transmission shaft 55. The first, second, third, and fourth transmission shafts 52, 53, 54, and 55 are all rotatably mounted on the frame. Power transmission between the first transmission shaft 52 and the ground wheel 51 is achieved via a first chain 58. Power transmission between the first transmission shaft 52 and the second, third, and third transmission shafts 54 is achieved via a second chain 59, driving the... The sprocket of the seed chain 1 is mounted on the second drive shaft 53. The fourth drive shaft 55 includes a rotating sleeve 551 and a movable shaft 552. The movable shaft 552 is slidably mounted on one side of the rotating sleeve 551. The rotating sleeve 551 can drive the movable shaft 552 to rotate synchronously. The movable shaft 552 can slide back and forth and be positioned within the rotating sleeve 551. The first gear 56 is fixedly mounted at the front end of the movable shaft 552. In practical applications, the relative sliding ability of the movable shaft 552 with respect to the rotating sleeve 551 can be used to achieve the meshing and disengagement of the first gear 56 and the second gear 62. A spring 553 is fitted at the front end of the rotating sleeve 551. The spring 553 is clamped between the front end of the rotating sleeve 551 and the rear end face of the first gear 56. In actual application, when the first gear 56 is not subjected to external thrust, it moves to the position of meshing with the second gear 62 under the push of the spring 553, thereby realizing the power transmission between the first gear 56 and the second gear 62. Further, the specific implementation of the free sliding and positioning of the movable shaft 552 on the rotating sleeve 551 is as follows: the movable shaft 552 is a hexagonal stepped shaft. The movable shaft 552 and the rotating sleeve 551 are fitted in a hexagonal manner, which facilitates the connection between the rotating sleeve 551 and the movable shaft 552. The synchronous movement between the first gear 56 and the second gear 62 is achieved by the large-diameter portion 5521 of the movable shaft 552 being fitted inside the rotating sleeve 551, and the spring 553 being fitted outside the small-diameter portion 25522 of the movable shaft 552. A limiting ring 5511 is provided at the front end of the rotating sleeve 551 to prevent the large-diameter portion 5521 of the movable shaft 552 from extending out of the rotating sleeve 551. When the movable shaft 552 is pushed out of the rotating sleeve 551 by the spring 553, the limiting ring 5511 prevents the movable shaft 552 from disengaging from the rotating sleeve 551, thereby ensuring the stability of the engagement between the first gear 56 and the second gear 62.The second power transmission mechanism also includes a fifth transmission shaft 61 and a sixth transmission shaft 63. Both the fifth transmission shaft 61 and the sixth transmission shaft 63 are mounted on the frame. The second gear 62 is fixedly mounted on the fifth transmission shaft 61. Power is transmitted between the fifth transmission shaft 61, the shovel shaft 81 and the sixth transmission shaft 63 through a fourth chain 64.

[0035] Based on the above embodiments, to ensure the effective removal of excess garlic cloves by the flexible garlic-removing plate 811, the distance between the outer end face of the flexible garlic-removing plate 811 and the right side of the seed-taking chain 1 is L2 when the flexible garlic-removing plate 811 is perpendicular to the right side of the seed-taking chain 1, where 3mm ≤ L2 ≤ 5mm. Since the length of garlic cloves used as seeds is generally over 30mm, and the width and thickness are generally over 15mm, in this specific embodiment, the value of L2 can be set to 4mm. Because 4mm is much smaller than the thickness and width of the garlic cloves, even if the excess garlic cloves are lying flat against one side of the chain, the flexible garlic-removing plate 811 can still touch the excess garlic cloves during rotation, thereby ensuring the reliability of removing the excess garlic cloves.

[0036] Based on the above embodiments, the specific implementation method for the clockwise rotation of the sowing chain 2 is as follows: The garlic sowing assembly further includes a third power transmission mechanism. The first power transmission mechanism can drive the third power transmission mechanism to operate. The third power transmission mechanism can drive the sowing chain 2 to rotate clockwise. The third power transmission mechanism includes a third gear 71, a fourth gear 72, and a seventh transmission shaft 73. The third gear 71 is fixedly mounted on the third transmission shaft 54, and the fourth gear 72 is fixedly mounted on the seventh transmission shaft 73. The seventh transmission shaft 73 is mounted on the frame, and the sprocket that drives the sowing chain 2 to rotate is fixedly mounted on the seventh transmission shaft 73. The third gear 71 and the fourth gear 72 are of the same type and are in a meshing state. During the rotation of the third transmission shaft 54, the rotation drive of the sowing chain 2 is realized.

[0037] Based on the above embodiments, in order to facilitate further soil covering of the garlic cloves after sowing, a furrow opener 9 is set on the left side of the left side of the sowing chain 2. The furrow opener 9 can open a furrow of a certain depth, and the garlic cloves are planted in the furrow, so that the soil on both sides of the furrow can be used to cover the garlic cloves in the future.

[0038] To facilitate continuous sowing of garlic cloves, the garlic sowing assembly also includes a garlic seed box 8. The right side of the seed-collecting chain 1 is located inside the garlic seed box 8 on the left side. In actual application, a certain amount of garlic cloves are kept inside the garlic seed box 8. As the seed-collecting chain 1 continues to run, the garlic seed spoon 11 on it is continuously moved out of the garlic clove pile inside the garlic seed box 8. When the garlic seed spoon 11 is moved out of the garlic clove pile, it will carry garlic cloves with it, thereby realizing the seed collection of garlic cloves. When there are at least two garlic cloves on the garlic seed spoon 11, the flexible garlic-picking plate 811 is used to separate them, thus finally realizing the single seed collection of the garlic seed spoon 11.

[0039] When planting garlic cloves using the sowing chain 2, the digging plate 21 drags a garlic clove along the sowing chain 2, moving continuously in the second correction channel. When the digging plate 21 reaches the bottom of the sowing chain 2, it moves in the direction pointing towards the sowing mechanism. During the rotation of the digging plate 21, it pushes the soil, thus creating a hole in the soil 101. As the digging process continues, the garlic clove 102 on the digging plate 21 automatically falls into the dug hole under gravity. Because the garlic clove initially maintains a basically upward-facing position on the digging plate 21, and continues to maintain this upward-facing position after falling into the hole and detaching from the digging plate 21, the success rate of planting garlic cloves with the garlic sprout facing upwards can be greatly improved. To further improve the success rate of planting garlic cloves with the garlic sprout facing upwards, the digging plate 21 is L-shaped. The horizontal plate of the digging plate 21... 211 is connected to the sowing chain 2. The vertical plate 212 of the digging plate 21 is shaped like a ping-pong paddle. When the vertical plate 212 of the digging plate 21 rotates and pushes the soil, it facilitates the flow of the surrounding soil 102 into the hole area. This allows the soil 101 to wrap around the garlic clove 102 and the opposite side of the digging plate 21. At the same time, during the digging process, due to the automatic flow characteristics of the soil on both sides of the garlic clove 102, some of the soil will automatically flow to the garlic clove 102. On the front and back sides of 02, during the planting process, the left, front and right sides of the garlic clove 102 will be partially covered by the soil 101 as it falls into the hole. This makes it easier to ensure that the garlic clove 102 that falls into the hole keeps the garlic sprout facing upward. At the same time, when planting garlic cloves on a hole-digging plate 21, the adjacent hole-digging plate 21 behind it will not come into contact with the already planted garlic cloves when planting subsequent garlic cloves, thus helping to keep the garlic sprouts of the garlic cloves planted upward.

[0040] The present invention also provides a method for adjusting the use of a garlic planting component, including the garlic planting component described in the above embodiments, and the method further includes the following:

[0041] Adjust the garlic-peeling distance L3; reasonably set the distance between the garlic seed spoons 11 on the seed-taking chain 1, the linear speed of rotation of the seed-taking chain 1, and the angular velocity of rotation of the garlic-peeling shaft 81, so that during the synchronous movement of the seed-taking chain 1 and the garlic-peeling shaft 81, the outer end of the corresponding flexible garlic-peeling plate 811 is always above the corresponding garlic seed spoon 11; according to the size of the garlic seeds, adjust the distance L3 between the flexible garlic-peeling plate 811, whose outer end is tilted downward and points to the right side of the seed-taking chain 1, and the garlic seed spoon 11 below it. Specifically, firstly... First, both the seed-taking chain 1 and the garlic-picking shaft 81 are stopped. Then, the first gear 56 and the second gear 62 are separated. After separation, the size of L3 is adjusted according to the size of the garlic seed. When the garlic seed is small, the corresponding flexible garlic-picking plate 811 is rotated counterclockwise by rotating the second gear 62, thereby reducing the size of L3. When the garlic seed is large, the corresponding flexible garlic-picking plate 811 is rotated clockwise by rotating the second gear 62, thereby increasing the size of L3.

[0042] Adjust the coordination between the garlic seed spoon 11 and the hole-digging plate 21; under the condition that the linear speed of the seed-taking chain 1 and the spacing of the garlic seed spoons 11 are determined, reasonably set the linear speed of the sowing chain 21 and the spacing of the hole-digging plates 21 so that when the seed-taking chain 1 and the sowing chain 2 are running continuously, each hole-digging plate 21 can just catch a garlic clove falling from the garlic seed spoon 11; that is, when the seed-taking chain 1 and the sowing chain 2 are rotating continuously, each hole-digging plate 21 can just catch a garlic clove 102 when passing under the first correction channel, thereby ensuring the continuous planting of garlic cloves in the future;

[0043] During the garlic planting process, the bottom of the planting chain 2 is kept basically level with the ground. The continuous alignment of the bottom of the planting chain 2 with the ground reduces the height at which the garlic cloves fall to the ground and also facilitates the excavation of a certain depth of soil holes using the digging plate 21. The small height difference of the garlic cloves when they fall into the soil hole makes it easier for the garlic cloves to maintain an upward-facing position as much as possible.

[0044] In this invention, "left" and "right" are relative positions used for the convenience of describing positional relationships, and therefore should not be interpreted as absolute positions or as limitations on the scope of protection.

[0045] Except for the technical features described in the specification, all other technologies are known to those skilled in the art.

[0046] The preferred embodiments and examples of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments and examples. For those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
