Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of square paper pot transplanting technology, and more specifically, relates to a short-chain square paper pot transplanting machine. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of agricultural production methods, modern agriculture has increasingly higher requirements for mechanized and precise planting. Traditional manual transplanting methods are labor-intensive, inefficient, and greatly affected by factors such as weather and seasons, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale, high-efficiency planting. Therefore, mechanized transplanting has become an important development direction for modern agriculture, especially in greenhouses, seedling cultivation, and large-scale agricultural planting, where the demand for transplanting equipment is becoming increasingly urgent.

[0003] Paper pots, as a novel seedling medium, have been widely used in agriculture due to their excellent air and water permeability and their outstanding protection of plant roots. Traditional seedling methods often use plastic seedling trays, but with increasing environmental awareness, paper pots are gradually replacing plastic containers. Paper pots provide a more natural growing environment for plants and decompose well after planting, avoiding plastic pollution problems. However, the use of paper pots also brings some new challenges, especially in large-scale transplanting. How to efficiently and accurately plant seedlings from paper pots into the soil has become crucial for improving operational efficiency and quality. Therefore, specially designed machinery for transplanting paper pots has become an important tool for solving this problem.

[0004] The short-chain square paper pot transplanter combines the characteristics of paper pots with modern mechanized design. It achieves efficient transport of the paper pots via a short conveyor belt, reducing wear and tear caused by long-chain conveyors and preventing jamming during transport. Optimizations in precision planting, laser shearing, and fertilization make paper pot transplanting operations more efficient and accurate.

[0005] The existing square paper pot transplanter has poor adaptability and cannot follow the undulating terrain for planting, which affects the survival rate of transplanted plants. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides a short-chain square paper pot transplanter, which can solve the problems of poor adaptability of existing square paper pot transplanters and their inability to follow the undulations of the terrain for planting, thus affecting the survival rate of transplanted plants.

[0007] This invention is implemented as follows: This invention provides a short-chain type square paper pot transplanter, comprising a support frame, a platform, friction moving parts, a conveyor belt, a shearing assembly, a duckbill planter, a fertilizing assembly, and a row-aligning assembly. The support frame is a fixed support structure, with one end connected to a mobile device for providing support. The platform is located on both sides of the top of the support frame for placing square paper pots. An opening is provided on one side of the platform, and the friction moving parts are located at the opening for sequentially moving the square paper pots through friction. The conveyor belt is located on the side of the friction moving parts away from the platform, and the conveyor belt is used to transport the square paper pots to the side away from the mobile device. The conveyor belt has shearing components on both sides of its central position. These components are used to cut the square paper pots in a non-contact manner to facilitate planting. A duckbill planter is located at the bottom of the side of the conveyor belt furthest from the friction moving part, used to plant the cut square paper pots in the field. One side of the duckbill planter is connected to the fertilization component for fertilizing while planting the square paper pots. A ridge-aligning component is located at the connection point between the duckbill planter and the support frame. This component guides the duckbill planter to plant according to the terrain, preventing inconsistent hole depths due to varying ridge heights.

[0008] The mobile device can be a tractor or other equipment that moves in the field.

[0009] The technical advantages of the short-chain square paper pot transplanter provided by this invention are as follows: The support frame is a fixed support structure, with one end connected to the mobile device and the other end providing stable support. The design of the support frame ensures the structural stability of the transplanter while providing support and positioning for other components. The platform is located on both sides of the top of the support frame, serving to hold the square paper pots. Friction moving parts are provided on the open side of the platform, and the square paper pots are transmitted to the conveyor belt through friction, moving forward sequentially.

[0010] Based on the above technical solution, the short-chain square paper pot transplanter of the present invention can be further improved as follows: The shearing assembly includes a laser emitter, a mirror assembly, a focusing lens, and a rotating shield. The laser emitter is connected to the mirror assembly via an optical fiber. The focusing lens is fixed to the rotating shield. The mirror assembly guides the laser beam from the laser emitter to the focusing lens, which focuses the laser beam into a high-energy-density spot to cut the square paper bowl. The laser emitter, the mirror assembly, and the focusing lens are fixed within a square shell, which is positioned at the top of the conveyor belt away from the friction moving part. The rotating shield is fixed inside the square shell via a rotating shaft. The focusing lens is located on the side wall of the rotating shield and extends through the entire rotating shield. The center positions of the laser emitter, the mirror assembly, and the focusing lens correspond to the positions of the square paper bowls being transported on the conveyor belt. The rotation plane of the rotating shield is set perpendicular to the direction of the laser beam of the laser emitter.

[0011] Furthermore, the laser emitter is a carbon dioxide laser with a wavelength of 10.6 μm; the reflector group uses high-reflectivity coated lenses to minimize laser energy loss; and the focusing lens is a high-precision aspherical lens to ensure that the laser beam is focused into an ideal spot shape and size. A beam shaper is provided between the laser emitter and the reflector assembly. The beam shaper is elongated and is used to shape the laser beam into an elongated shape to adapt to the cutting of the square paper bowl. The square shell is a light-shielding structure with multiple ventilation holes on its inner wall for heat dissipation.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the above-mentioned improved scheme are as follows: the combination of the laser emitter, reflector group, focusing lens, and rotating shield in the shearing assembly optimizes the cutting accuracy and efficiency. Laser cutting replaces traditional mechanical cutting, reducing the damage to the square paper bowl caused by contact pressure while improving cutting accuracy. A carbon dioxide laser with a wavelength of 10.6 μm is selected as the laser emitter, suitable for processing paper materials. The square shell, acting as a light shield, helps control the scattering of the laser beam, increasing system safety and cutting accuracy.

[0013] Furthermore, the duckbill planter includes a driving component and a planting component. The driving component is a linear reciprocating structure, including a vertically downward guide rail and a slider. The slider is located inside the guide rail and moves up and down in the vertical direction. The stroke is equal to or slightly greater than the height of the seedling in the pot, and the direction is always vertically downward. One side of the planting component is fixed to the slider and moves up and down synchronously with the slider. The upper end has a seedling inlet, and the lower end has a seedling outlet. A self-resetting valve is installed at the seedling outlet. The valve consists of two opposing flaps, which are fixed to the outer edge of the seedling outlet by a horizontal hinge. In its natural state, the flaps are closed due to their own weight, carrying the seedlings. When the slider moves the planting component down to the bottom, i.e., the surface of the seedbed or the pre-dug hole, the opening and closing assembly causes the planting component to open, the flaps flip upwards, and the seedling outlet automatically opens, allowing the seedling to fall vertically into the seedbed under gravity. After the slider returns to its original position, the flaps close again due to their own weight, ready for the next seedling insertion. A laser rangefinder is fixed to the bottom of the flaps. A comparator is installed between the laser rangefinder and the opening and closing assembly. The comparator has a threshold value, determined based on the moving speed of the mobile device, and is between 2-5 cm. When the distance between the flap and the ground measured by the laser rangefinder is less than the threshold value, the opening and closing assembly causes the planting component to open. The planting component has a double-layer structure, with an outer shell and an inner rubber material, and the fertilization component is located in the hollow part.

[0014] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improved scheme are as follows: the planting component of the duckbill planter has an opening and closing function, and adopts a design of telescopic rod and fixing ring. The opening and closing of the planting opening is controlled by the opening and closing component to ensure that the seedlings are not squeezed or damaged during planting. The double-layer structure of the seedling outlet and the design of the outer rubber material ensure a balance between flexibility and strength, avoiding damage to the seedlings.

[0015] Furthermore, the opening and closing assembly includes telescopic rods and fixing rings. The fixing rings consist of two sets, both fixedly connected to an annular plate. The annular plate is fixed to the middle position of the inner wall of the planting component on the side away from the outer wall. The fixing rings consist of two segments, respectively fixedly connected to the arc-shaped plates on the two parts of the planting component. The telescopic rods consist of four sets, respectively fixed to the inner wall of the planting component on the side away from the outer wall. Their output ends are staggered and connected to the side walls of the fixing rings, used to push the fixing rings and the planting component to open and close.

[0016] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improved scheme are as follows: The fertilization component includes a fertilizer inlet, a fertilizer pipe, a fertilizer storage tank, and an input pump. The fertilizer inlet is located at the junction of the inner and outer walls of the seedling outlet and adopts a duckbill-type structure, with the fertilizer spraying adjusted by a connecting spring. The inside of the fertilizer inlet has a spiral structure to help limit the direction of fertilizer output. The fertilizer storage tank is fixed on a support, and the input pump delivers fertilizer to the fertilizer inlet, automatically applying fertilizer during the planting process.

[0017] Furthermore, the fertilization assembly includes a fertilization port, a fertilization pipe, a fertilizer storage tank, and an input pump. The fertilization port is located at the bottom connection between the inner and outer walls of the planting component, and it has a duckbill-shaped structure made of hard rubber. Four connecting springs are provided between the outer walls of the duckbill-shaped structure, each fixed inside the fertilization port at 90° intervals. The fertilization pipe is connected through to the side wall of the planting component, and a spiral structure is provided between the inner and outer walls of the planting component. The fertilizer storage tank is fixed to the support and is connected through to the end of the fertilization pipe away from the fertilization port. Its connection point is connected to the output port of the input pump. The input pump is fixed inside the fertilizer storage tank and is used to pump the fertilizer inside the storage tank into the space between the inner and outer walls of the planting component. The side wall of the input pump has a pleated structure. The arc-shaped plate is positioned away from the spiral structure inside the planting component. The arc-shaped plate squeezes the inside of the planting component to push the fertilizer inside out through the fertilizer inlet in a ring shape to the location where the seedling is planted. The spiral structure is used to restrict the direction of the fertilizer squeeze output.

[0018] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improved scheme are as follows: The fertilization component includes a fertilizer inlet, a fertilizer pipe, a fertilizer storage tank, and an input pump. The fertilizer inlet is located at the junction of the inner and outer walls of the seedling outlet and adopts a duckbill-type structure, with the fertilizer spraying adjusted by a connecting spring. The inside of the fertilizer inlet has a spiral structure to help limit the direction of fertilizer output. The fertilizer storage tank is fixed on a support, and the input pump delivers fertilizer to the fertilizer inlet, automatically applying fertilizer during the planting process.

[0019] Furthermore, the ridge-aligning component includes a grounding wheel and a moving track. The moving track is provided on the side of the bracket near the duckbill planter. A fixed plate is connected inside the moving track. The fixed plate is connected to the moving track in an I-shape, and the fixed plate is slidably disposed inside the moving track. The grounding wheel is connected to the bottom of the fixed plate. The grounding wheel is used to generate pressure by contacting the ground, thereby driving the fixed plate to move upward along the moving track. A platform is provided on the side of the fixed plate near the duckbill planter. A motor is fixed on the platform. The output shaft of the motor is connected to the drive component, which is used to drive the drive component to rotate.

[0020] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improved scheme are as follows: The ridge-setting component includes a grounding wheel and a moving track. The grounding wheel is used to generate pressure by contacting the ground, driving the fixed plate to move upward along the moving track, adjusting the planting depth to adapt to different terrains. The fixed plate on the moving track is connected to a motor, which drives the adjustment of the ridge shape of the planter, thereby avoiding inconsistent planting depths due to varying terrain.

[0021] Furthermore, the friction moving component includes a rotating shaft, blades, and friction plates. The bottom of the rotating shaft is connected to the output shaft of the motor, and multiple blades are arranged on its side wall. The blades are inclined and rotate with the rotating shaft in the same direction as the movement direction of the square paper bowl. The friction plates are arranged on the surfaces of the blades that contact the square paper bowl. The friction plates contact the side wall of the square paper bowl and drive the square paper bowl to move towards one side of the conveyor belt through friction. The friction moving parts comprise two sets, respectively disposed on both sides of the opening of the platform.

[0022] The beneficial effects of the above-mentioned improved scheme are as follows: The friction moving component consists of a rotating shaft, blades, and friction plates. The rotating shaft is connected to a motor, driving the blades to rotate. The blades are tilted, and their rotation direction is the same as the moving direction of the square paper bowl. The blades contact the side wall of the square paper bowl, and the friction force propels the square paper bowl along the platform. The design of the friction plates ensures stable conveying of the square paper bowl, making it less prone to slippage or detachment.

[0023] Furthermore, the conveyor belt is sleeved on the support, and a rotating roller is provided on its side wall. The rotating roller is used to drive the conveyor belt to rotate so as to move the square paper bowl. The connection between the conveyor belt and the opening of the platform is an arc-shaped structure to avoid obstructing the movement of the square paper bowl. The rotating roller is connected to a motor, and the motor is used to drive the rotating roller to rotate. The surface of the conveyor belt is provided with friction protrusions to drive the square paper bowl to move along the conveyor belt.

[0024] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improved scheme are as follows: The conveyor belt is used to transport the square paper bowls from the friction moving part to the shearing assembly, ensuring the sequential and smooth transport of the paper bowls. The conveyor belt design includes friction protrusions to increase the friction with the square paper bowls, allowing them to move smoothly. Furthermore, the conveyor belt is driven to rotate by a rotating roller, with a motor providing the power drive. The conveyor belt is connected to the motor via the rotating roller, and the motor drives the rotating roller to move the conveyor belt, ensuring the smooth transport of the square paper bowls. The surface of the conveyor belt is provided with friction protrusions to enhance the traction force on the square paper bowls and prevent slippage.

[0025] Furthermore, the mobile device is a tractor, and the mobile device is the power equipment of the transplanter, and is electrically connected to the motor, the laser emitter, the telescopic rod and the input pump.

[0026] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: The electrical system of the transplanter, including the motor, laser emitter, telescopic boom, input pump, etc., provides power and control signals through connection with the tractor. The tractor, as the main power source, ensures the efficient operation of all parts of the transplanter through cooperation with the motor and other components.

[0027] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of the short-chain square paper pot transplanter provided by this invention are: The support frame, as a fixed support structure, serves to support the entire transplanter. One end connects to the moving equipment (such as a tractor), while the other end supports the platform and various components. The frame design ensures the stability of the entire equipment during operation, capable of withstanding pressure from the conveyor belt, laser shearing assembly, duckbill planter, and other components. The frame also allows for the installation and adjustment of other components such as friction moving parts and ridge-aligning components.

[0028] The platform is positioned on both sides of the top of the support frame to hold square paper bowls. An opening is located on one side of the platform, where the friction moving component is positioned. The platform is designed to ensure that the square paper bowls are placed stably on it and smoothly enter the friction moving component. Its stability directly affects the smooth movement of the square paper bowls and the accuracy of subsequent processes.

[0029] The friction-driven moving component propels the square paper trays via a rotating shaft, blades, and friction plates. The rotating shaft is motor-driven, and its blades contact the square paper trays at an angle, using friction to smoothly move the trays towards one side of the conveyor belt. This design allows the square paper trays to enter the conveyor belt accurately and efficiently, thus achieving automated operation and improving work efficiency.

[0030] The conveyor belt is responsible for transporting the square paper pots from the friction moving parts to the shearing assembly and planting area. The conveyor belt is connected to a motor-driven rotating roller, which moves the paper pots. Friction protrusions on its surface increase the friction between the conveyor belt and the paper pots, ensuring that the paper pots do not slip during movement and are smoothly transported to the shearing assembly.

[0031] The cutting assembly utilizes laser cutting technology, employing a laser emitter, a mirror assembly, a focusing lens, and a rotating shield to precisely cut square paper pots. The laser emitter is connected to the mirror assembly via optical fiber, and the laser beam is focused into a high-energy spot by the focusing lens, enabling rapid and efficient cutting of square paper pots without contact. This laser cutting method avoids the damage or deformation that can occur with traditional mechanical cutting, ensuring a smooth transplanting process.

[0032] The duckbill planter is one of the core components of the transplanter, its main function being to plant the cut square paper pots into the soil. The planter consists of a drive unit and a planting component. The drive unit moves the planting component up and down, thus completing the equidistant planting action. The inlet size is precisely designed to accommodate the square paper pots and ensure stability during the planting process. The outlet, with its double-layer structure and rubber inner wall design, reduces friction and ensures a smooth planting process. Furthermore, the fertilization component allows for simultaneous fertilization during planting, optimizing cultivation results.

[0033] The fertilization unit delivers fertilizer to the planting point via a fertilizer inlet pipe, fertilizer storage tank, and input pump. The fertilizer inlet has a duckbill-shaped structure made of hard rubber to ensure accurate fertilizer dispensing. The fertilizer inlet connects to the seedling outlet of the planter, forming a closed system. Fertilizer is evenly distributed to the planting point through a spiral structure and curved plate, ensuring that each seedling receives sufficient nutrients at the time of planting.

[0034] The ridge-aligning component automatically adjusts the planting depth via grounding wheels and a moving track. The grounding wheels connect to a motor-driven fixed disc; upon contact with the ground, they apply pressure, causing the disc to move up and down along the track, thus adjusting the planting depth. This design allows the transplanter to adapt to different terrains, ensuring a consistent planting depth even on uneven ground and preventing uneven planting due to variations in terrain.

[0035] The laser shearing assembly employs a carbon dioxide laser and a high-reflectivity mirror group. A beam shaper shapes the laser beam into a strip suitable for cutting square paper bowls. A focusing lens focuses the laser beam into a high-energy-density spot, ensuring efficient cutting. The rotating baffle design effectively controls the alignment of the laser beam output with the cutting area of ​​the square paper bowl, guaranteeing precision during the cutting process.

[0036] The entire transplanter is automated through a motor and control system. The motor drives the operation of components such as friction moving parts, conveyor belts, and rotating shafts. The control system coordinates the operation of each component through electrical connections with the laser emitter, input pump, opening and closing assembly, and motors, ensuring that the transplanting process is efficient, precise, and stable.

A square paper pot is conveyed on one side; shearing components 50 are provided on both sides of the middle position of the conveyor belt 40. The shearing components 50 are used to cut the square paper pot in a non-contact manner to facilitate planting; a duckbill planter 60 is provided at the bottom position of the side of the conveyor belt 40 away from the friction moving part 30, which is used to plant the cut individual square paper pots in the field; one side of the duckbill planter 60 is connected to the fertilization component 70, which is used to fertilize at the same time as planting the square paper pots; a ridge-aligning component 80 is provided at the position where the duckbill planter 60 is connected to the support 10. The ridge-aligning component 80 is used to drive the duckbill planter 60 to plant according to the terrain, so as to avoid inconsistent hole depth due to the height of the ridge.

[0040] In the above technical solution, the shearing assembly 50 includes a laser emitter 51, a reflector group 52, a focusing lens 53, and a rotating baffle plate 54. The laser emitter 51 is connected to the reflector group 52 via an optical fiber. The focusing lens 53 is fixed on the rotating baffle plate 54. The reflector group 52 guides the laser beam from the laser emitter 51 to the focusing lens 53, and the focusing lens 53 focuses the laser beam into a high-energy-density spot to cut the square paper bowl. The laser emitter 51, the reflector group 52, and the focusing lens 53 are fixed in a square shell. The square shell is located at the top of the conveyor belt 40 away from the friction moving part 30. The rotating baffle plate 54 is fixed inside the square shell via a rotating shaft. The focusing lens 53 is located on the side wall of the rotating baffle plate 54 and extends through the entire rotating baffle plate 54. The center position of the laser emitter 51, the reflector group 52, and the focusing lens 53 corresponds to the position of the square paper bowl being transported on the conveyor belt 40. The rotation plane of the rotating shield 54 is set perpendicular to the direction of the laser beam of the laser emitter 51.

The square shell is a light shield structure, and its inner wall is provided with multiple ventilation holes for heat dissipation.

[0042] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the duckbill planter 60 includes a driving component 61 and a planting component 62. The driving component 61 is a linear reciprocating structure, including a vertically downward guide rail and a slider. The slider is set inside the guide rail and moves up and down in the vertical direction. The stroke is equal to or slightly greater than the height of the seedling in the pot, and the direction is always vertically downward. One side of the planting component 62 is fixed to the slider and moves up and down synchronously with the slider. The upper end has a seedling inlet 621, and the lower end has a seedling outlet 622. A self-relocating valve is installed at the seedling outlet. The valve consists of two opposing flaps, which are fixed to the outer edge of the seedling outlet by a horizontal hinge. In its natural state, the flaps are closed due to their own weight, supporting the seedlings. When the slider moves the planting component 62 down to the bottom, i.e., the surface of the seedbed or the pre-dug hole, the opening and closing mechanism causes the planting component 62 to open, and the flaps... The device flips upwards, automatically opening the seedling outlet and allowing the seedling to fall vertically into the seedbed under gravity. After the slider returns to its original position, the tongue closes again due to its own weight, ready for the next seedling graft. A laser rangefinder is fixed at the bottom of the tongue, and a comparator is installed between the laser rangefinder and the opening / closing assembly. The comparator has a threshold value set within it, which is determined based on the moving speed of the mobile device and is between 2 and 5 cm. When the distance between the tongue and the ground measured by the laser rangefinder is less than the threshold value, the opening / closing assembly causes the planting component 62 to open. The planting component 62 has a double-layer structure, with an outer shell and an inner rubber material, and a fertilization component 70 is provided in the hollow part.

[0043] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the opening and closing assembly includes telescopic rods and fixing rings. The fixing rings include two sets, both of which are fixedly connected to the annular plate. The annular plate is fixed at the middle position of the inner wall of the planting component 62 on the side away from the outer wall. The fixing rings include two sections, which are fixedly connected to the arc-shaped plates on the two parts of the planting component 62 respectively. The telescopic rods include four sets, which are fixedly fixed to the inner wall of the planting component 62 on the side away from the outer wall respectively. Their output ends are staggered and connected to the side wall of the fixing rings to push the fixing rings and the planting component 62 to open and close.

[0044] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the fertilization component 70 includes a fertilization port 71, a fertilization pipe 72, a fertilizer storage tank 73, and an input pump 74. The fertilization port 71 is located at the bottom connection between the inner and outer walls of the planting component 62. It has a duckbill-shaped structure and is made of hard rubber. A connecting spring is provided between the outer walls of the duckbill-shaped structure. There are four connecting springs, which are fixed inside the fertilization port 71 at 90° intervals. The fertilization pipe 72 is connected to the side wall of the planting component 62, and a spiral structure is provided between the inner and outer walls of the planting component 62. The fertilizer storage tank 73 is fixed on the bracket 10 and is connected to the end of the fertilization pipe 72 away from the fertilization port 71.

The input pump 74 is fixed inside the fertilizer storage tank 73 and is used to pump the fertilizer inside the fertilizer storage tank 73 into the space between the inner and outer walls of the planting component 62. The side wall of the input pump 74 has a pleated structure. The spiral structure of the arc-shaped plate away from the inside of the planting component 62 is designed to push the fertilizer extrusion port 71 inside the planting component 62 to output fertilizer in a ring shape to the seedling planting position by squeezing the inside of the arc-shaped plate. The spiral structure is used to limit the direction of fertilizer extrusion output.

[0045] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the ridge-aligning component 80 includes a grounding wheel 81 and a moving track 82. The moving track 82 is provided on the side of the support 10 near the duckbill planter 60. A fixed plate is connected inside the moving track 82.

[0049] Specifically, the principle of this invention is as follows: During use, square paper pots are placed on the platform as required, ensuring each pot can slide smoothly to the friction moving part. The grounding wheels of the ridge-aligning component are adjusted according to the terrain and crop needs to ensure a suitable planting depth. This adjustment can be made through a control system or a manual adjustment device. The fertilizer output of the fertilization component is adjusted according to the crop's nutritional needs to ensure each seedling receives sufficient nutrients. The power and shearing speed of the laser emitter are adjusted according to the size and material of the paper pots to ensure shearing accuracy. The laser shearing component needs to be connected to the control system for activation at the appropriate time. The speed of the conveyor belt is adjusted so that the square paper pots can move smoothly to the planting area, avoiding blockages or uneven transport.

[0050] After the laser emitter is activated, it will automatically perform laser cutting. Ensure the laser precisely cuts the paper pots, avoiding damage or uneven cutting. As the paper pots are conveyed to the planting position by the conveyor belt, the duckbill planter will automatically complete the planting. Ensure the planting depth and fertilizer application rate meet the set requirements. During operation, observe whether the paper pots pass smoothly over the friction moving parts and conveyor belt. Ensure there are no jams and adjust the conveyor belt speed promptly. Observe the laser cutting effect to ensure accurate cutting and no damage to the paper pots. If any abnormalities are found, stop the equipment immediately for inspection. Regularly check the accuracy of the planting depth and position. Ensure the planter completes the planting task at the set depth.
