Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of agriculture, and in particular relates to an automatic seedling transplanter. Background Art

[0002] Transplanting, as a cultivation technique, offers advantages unmatched by direct seeding. It can advance the crop's growth period by approximately 15 days, effectively protecting it from adverse weather conditions such as early spring low temperatures, late spring frost, frost, and hail. It also improves seedling survival rates, ensures that the number of plants per unit area meets agronomic requirements, and extends the crop's growth period, effectively increasing yields and quality. This significantly reduces costs, increases production, and increases income. Crop transplanting is primarily divided into manual and mechanical transplanting.

[0003] Currently, transplanting in small and medium-sized open fields and nurseries in my country is still primarily done manually. Semi-automatic transplanters are widely used for open-field cultivation, and research into fully automatic transplanters is in its infancy. Fully automatic transplanters are typically manned and large in size. Large, manned transplanters are unsuitable for small and medium-sized greenhouse vegetable production in China due to ridge and shoulder height limitations. Therefore, developing a small, unmanned, automated transplanter suitable for low-lying open fields and nurseries is of great significance. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an automated seedling transplanter to address the above-mentioned technical problems, thereby improving the transplant survival rate and transplant efficiency of garden seedlings, while also alleviating the fatigue of garden workers.

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides an automated seedling transplanter, comprising: A moving mechanism, wherein the moving mechanism is used for walking; A seedling pulling mechanism, which is used to be inserted into the soil and rotated to pull out the seedlings; The seedling-removing mechanism is used to separate the soil-covered seedlings pulled out by the seedling-pulling mechanism from the seedling-pulling mechanism.

[0006] In this technical solution, the mobile mechanism walks to the seedlings to be transplanted, and then the seedling pulling mechanism is inserted into the soil at the seedlings and rotates to completely separate the soil at the roots of the seedlings from the surrounding soil, and then the seedling pulling mechanism pulls out the seedlings, and then the mobile mechanism moves to a position suitable for transplanting, and then the seedling removing mechanism causes the seedlings pulled out by the seedling pulling mechanism to separate from the seedling pulling mechanism and fall into a pit suitable for transplanting. The seedling pulling mechanism of this transplanter is inserted into the soil at the seedlings and rotates to completely separate the soil at the roots of the seedlings from the surrounding soil, and then the seedling pulling mechanism pulls out the seedlings. The seedling pulling mechanism can protect the root systems of the seedlings from being pulled because they are not completely separated from the surrounding soil when the seedlings rise, which can not only improve the transplantation survival rate and transplanting efficiency of garden seedlings, but also relieve the fatigue of garden workers. Automated equipment is of great significance to the operation of agricultural and forestry seedlings in my country.

[0007] Furthermore, the seedling pulling mechanism includes an insertion component, which can be lifted and lowered in a vertical direction to be inserted into the soil or pulled out from the soil.

[0008] Furthermore, the insertion component includes: A seedling pulling rack, wherein the seedling pulling rack is fixedly arranged on the mobile mechanism; A first electric push rod, wherein the first electric push rod is fixedly arranged on the seedling pulling frame and is vertically arranged; The seedling pulling tube is connected to the output end of the first electric push rod and can be vertically lifted and lowered. The seedling pulling tube is cylindrical and has a clearance gap on its circumferential arc surface. The clearance gap is used for allowing seedlings to enter the seedling pulling tube and be surrounded by the seedling pulling tube.

[0009] Furthermore, the end of the seedling pulling tube facing the soil includes serrated sharp teeth.

[0010] In this technical solution, when the first electric push rod is pushed downward, it will drive the seedling pulling tube to move downward and insert into the soil. The seedling pulling tube structure is a semicircular cylinder with a gap for clearance and serrated sharp teeth at the bottom, which can reduce friction when inserted into the soil and can be inserted into the soil faster and easier, especially in some dry land areas with high land density.

[0011] Furthermore, the seedling pulling mechanism also includes a rotating component, which is used to drive the seedling pulling tube to rotate circumferentially after the seedling pulling tube is inserted into the soil.

[0012] Furthermore, the rotating assembly includes: a second electric push rod, the second electric push rod being fixedly arranged on the moving mechanism; A rack connected to an output end of a second electric push rod, wherein the second electric push rod is arranged perpendicular to the first electric push rod; A gear column, which is rotatably mounted on the moving mechanism and meshes with the rack, and has a length greater than the lifting length of the seedling pulling cylinder; A semicircular gear is sleeved on the outer periphery of the seedling pulling cylinder and fixedly connected to the seedling pulling cylinder, and the semicircular gear is meshed with the gear column.

[0013] In this technical solution, after the seedling pulling tube is inserted into the soil, the second electric push rod extends, causing the rack to extend, thereby rotating the gear column, and causing the semicircular gear to rotate with the seedling pulling tube. The semicircular seedling pulling tube cannot completely separate the soil-covered seedlings from the soil. The auxiliary seedling pulling rotating component drives the seedling pulling tube to rotate circumferentially after the seedling pulling tube is inserted into the soil, so that the soil-covered seedlings can be completely separated from the surrounding soil.

[0014] Furthermore, an annular guide rail is provided at one end of the seedling pulling tube away from the sharp teeth, and a sliding card in the annular guide rail is provided with two guide wheels arranged opposite to each other. There are two first electric push rods, and the two guide wheels are respectively fixedly connected to the output ends of the two first electric push rods.

[0015] In this technical solution, two guide wheels are arranged on both sides of the seedling pulling cylinder and are slidably clamped in the annular guide rail on the seedling pulling cylinder. When the first electric push rod is pushed out or retracted, the seedling pulling cylinder can be moved up and down without affecting the axial rotation of the seedling pulling cylinder driven by the rotating assembly.

[0016] Furthermore, the seedling removal mechanism includes: A seedling-pulling rod is arranged in the seedling-pulling tube, and one end of the seedling-pulling rod away from the soil is fixedly connected to the seedling-pulling frame; A seedling removal ring is provided at one end of the seedling removal rod facing the soil, and the seedling removal ring is located between the two positions where the serrated sharp teeth are located when the seedling removal tube is in the lowered position and the raised position.

[0017] When the seedling is fully moved to the highest position, that is, the initial position of the first electric push rod, the seedling is separated from the seedling and falls to an area with a larger space to be planted.

[0018] Furthermore, the moving mechanism includes: chassis; Rotating wheels are arranged on both sides of the chassis, with two rotating wheels on each side; A crawler track, the crawler track being tensioned outside the two rotating wheels; There are two drive motors, and the output ends of the two drive motors are respectively connected to a rotating wheel on both sides of the chassis; There are two tensioning wheels, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the chassis for tensioning the crawler track.

[0019] Furthermore, a battery is provided on the moving mechanism.

[0020] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. The mobile mechanism moves to the seedlings to be transplanted, and then the seedling pulling mechanism is inserted into the soil at the seedlings and rotates to completely separate the soil at the roots of the seedlings from the surrounding soil, and then the seedling pulling mechanism pulls out the seedlings. Then the mobile mechanism moves to a position suitable for transplanting, and then the seedling removing mechanism causes the seedlings pulled out by the seedling pulling mechanism to separate from the seedling pulling mechanism and fall into a pit suitable for transplanting. The seedling pulling mechanism of this transplanter is inserted into the soil at the seedlings and rotates to completely separate the soil at the roots of the seedlings from the surrounding soil, and then the seedling pulling mechanism pulls out the seedlings. The seedling pulling mechanism can protect the seedling roots from being pulled because they are not completely separated from the surrounding soil when the seedlings rise. It can not only improve the transplantation survival rate and transplanting efficiency of garden seedlings, but also relieve the fatigue of garden workers. The automated equipment of operation is of great significance to the operation of agricultural and forestry seedlings in my country. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

In addition, it should be pointed out that the scope of the methods and devices in the embodiments of the present application is not limited to performing functions in the order shown or discussed, and may also include performing functions in a substantially simultaneous manner or in the opposite order according to the functions involved. For example, the described method may be performed in an order different from that described, and various steps may also be added, omitted, or combined. In addition, the features described with reference to certain examples may be combined in other examples.

[0027] Example 1: like Figure 1 As shown, an automatic seedling transplanter includes: A mobile mechanism 1, wherein the mobile mechanism 1 is used for walking and is further provided with a battery 2; A seedling pulling mechanism 3, which is used to be inserted into the soil and rotated to pull out the seedlings; The seedling-removing mechanism 4 is used to separate the soil-covered seedlings pulled out by the seedling-pulling mechanism 3 from the seedling-pulling mechanism 3 .

[0028] The mobile mechanism 1 moves to the seedlings to be transplanted, and then the seedling pulling mechanism 3 is inserted into the soil at the seedlings and rotates to completely separate the soil at the roots of the seedlings from the surrounding soil, and then the seedling pulling mechanism 3 pulls out the seedlings. Then the mobile mechanism 1 moves to a position suitable for transplanting, and then the seedling removing mechanism 4 makes the seedlings pulled out by the seedling pulling mechanism 3 separate from the seedling pulling mechanism 3 and fall into a pit suitable for transplanting. The seedling pulling mechanism 3 of this transplanter is inserted into the soil at the seedlings and rotates to completely separate the soil at the roots of the seedlings from the surrounding soil, and then the seedling pulling mechanism 3 pulls out the seedlings. The seedling pulling mechanism can protect the seedling roots from being pulled because they are not completely separated from the surrounding soil when the seedlings rise. It can not only improve the transplanting survival rate and transplanting efficiency of garden seedlings, but also relieve the fatigue of garden workers. The automated equipment is of great significance to the operation of agricultural and forestry seedlings in my country.

[0029] Example 2: like Figure 2 As shown, the seedling pulling mechanism 3 includes an insertion component, which can be lifted and lowered vertically to be inserted into the soil or pulled out from the soil. The insertion component includes: A seedling pulling frame 5, wherein the seedling pulling frame 5 is fixedly arranged on the mobile mechanism 1; A first electric push rod 6, which is fixedly arranged on the seedling pulling frame 5 and is vertically arranged; The seedling pulling cylinder 7 is connected to the output end of the first electric push rod 6 and can be vertically lifted and lowered. The seedling pulling cylinder 7 is cylindrical and has a clearance gap 8 on the circumferential arc surface of the seedling pulling cylinder 7. The clearance gap 8 is used for allowing seedlings to enter the seedling pulling cylinder 7 and be surrounded by the seedling pulling cylinder 7. The end of the seedling pulling cylinder 7 facing the soil includes serrated sharp teeth 9.

[0030] When the first electric push rod 6 is pushed downward, it will drive the seedling pulling tube 7 to move downward and insert into the soil. The seedling pulling tube 7 is a semicircular cylinder with a clearance gap 8 and a serrated sharp tooth 9 at the bottom. It can reduce friction when inserted into the soil and can be inserted into the soil faster and easier, especially in some dry land areas with high land density.

[0031] Example 3: like Figure 2-3 As shown, the seedling pulling mechanism 3 further includes a rotating assembly, which is used to drive the seedling pulling cylinder 7 to rotate circumferentially after the seedling pulling cylinder 7 is inserted into the soil. The rotating assembly includes: A second electric push rod 10, which is fixedly arranged on the moving mechanism 1; A rack 11 connected to an output end of a second electric push rod 10 , wherein the second electric push rod 10 is arranged perpendicular to the first electric push rod 6 ; A gear column 12 is rotatably mounted on the mobile mechanism 1 and meshes with the rack 11. The length of the gear column 12 is greater than the lifting length of the seedling pulling cylinder 7. The semicircular gear 13 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the seedling pulling cylinder 7 and fixedly connected to the seedling pulling cylinder 7 , and the semicircular gear 13 is meshed with the gear column 12 .

[0032] After the seedling pulling tube 7 is inserted into the soil, the second electric push rod 10 extends, causing the rack 11 to extend, thereby rotating the gear column 12, and causing the semicircular gear 13 to rotate with the seedling pulling tube 7. The semicircular seedling pulling tube 7 cannot completely separate the soil-covered seedlings from the soil. The auxiliary seedling pulling rotating assembly drives the seedling pulling tube 7 to rotate circumferentially after the seedling pulling tube 7 is inserted into the soil, so that the soil-covered seedlings can be completely separated from the surrounding soil.

[0033] Example 4: like Figure 2As shown, the end of the seedling pulling cylinder 7 away from the sharp teeth 9 is provided with an annular guide rail 14, and two guide wheels 15 arranged opposite to each other are slidably mounted in the annular guide rail 14. The first electric push rod 6 has two guide wheels 15, and the two guide wheels 15 are respectively fixedly connected to the output ends of the two first electric push rods 6. The two guide wheels 15 are respectively provided on both sides of the seedling pulling cylinder 7 and slidably mounted in the annular guide rail 14 on the seedling pulling cylinder 7. When the first electric push rod 6 is pushed out or retracted, the seedling pulling cylinder 7 can be moved up and down with the guide wheel 15 without affecting the axial rotation of the seedling pulling cylinder 7 driven by the rotating assembly.

[0034] Embodiment 5: like Figure 2 As shown, the seedling removal mechanism 4 includes: The seedling-removing rod 16 is arranged in the seedling-removing tube 7, and one end of the seedling-removing rod 16 away from the soil is fixedly connected to the seedling-removing frame 5; A seedling-removing ring 17 is provided at one end of the seedling-removing rod 16 facing the soil. The seedling-removing ring 17 is located between the two positions where the serrated sharp teeth 9 are located when the seedling-removing tube 7 is in the lowered position and the raised position.

[0035] When the seedlings are pulled up, they need to be planted in an area with a larger space. The seedling-removing rod 16 is fixed on the seedling-removing frame 5, and the seedling-removing rod 16 is fixed when the seedling-removing tube 7 is lifted up. When the seedlings with soil bags in the seedling-removing tube 7 move upward to a certain height where the seedlings are separated from the ground, the seedling-removing rod 16 supports the upper end of the seedling soil bag to limit its continued upward movement. When the seedling-removing tube 7 fully moves to the highest position, that is, the initial position of the first electric push rod 6, the seedlings are separated from the seedling-removing tube 7 and fall into an area with a larger space to be planted.

[0036] Example 6: like Figure 4 As shown, the moving mechanism 1 includes: Chassis 18; Rotating wheels 19, which are rotatably arranged on both sides of the chassis 18, with two rotating wheels 19 being arranged on each side; A crawler track 20 , which is tensioned outside the two rotating wheels 19 ; There are two drive motors 21 , and the output ends of the two drive motors 21 are respectively connected to a rotating wheel 19 on both sides of the chassis 18 .

[0037] There are two tensioning wheels 22 , which are respectively arranged on both sides of the chassis 18 for tensioning the crawler track 20 .

[0038] The driving motor 21 is powered by the battery 2 to start the moving function, the rotating wheel 19 drives the crawler 20 to move, and the forward, backward and rotation functions are controlled by the on-off sequence and phase sequence of the motor current.

[0039] The transplanting environment often affects the survival rate of seedlings during transplanting. The transplanter is equipped with an environmental monitoring module, primarily consisting of a monitoring sensor 23 and a control center, to monitor the planting environment. The monitoring sensor 23 is mounted below the seedling puller 7. To operate, simply push the puller 7 downward to insert the sensor into the soil. This sensor monitors various environmental factors, including soil temperature, humidity, pH, EC, and nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium levels. During the transplanting season, if any of these factors affecting seedling survival rates arise, the monitored data can be used to generate an alarm. This data is transmitted directly via Wi-Fi to the user's phone or the control center's display, allowing farmers to implement timely watering, cooling, fertilization, and other measures based on the data. The monitoring sensor 23 operates at 24V DC and communicates via Wi-Fi. Its accuracy is ±2% Fs, 0.01 pH, 0.1°C, and ±0.3% RH, with a response time of ≤10s. The fully automatic seedling transplanter is the result of the overall movement coordination of the chassis 18, the seedling pulling mechanism 3, the seedling removal and planting mechanism, the monitoring module and other components. During the seedling pulling process, it is necessary to walk to the designated position, pull the seedlings, remove the seedlings and other actions. At the same time, the downward rotation action must be completed during the seedling pulling process. The downward depth cannot exceed the maximum stroke. The rotation angle needs to have a corresponding designated position. The sequential action control of the control center is required. The layout design of the electrical control box is as follows Figure 5 shown.

[0040] The embodiments of the present application are described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless there is a conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present application is not limited to the above-mentioned specific implementation methods. The above-mentioned specific implementation methods are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Under the guidance of this application, ordinary technicians in this field can also make many forms without departing from the purpose of this application and the scope of protection of the claims, all of which are within the protection of this application.
