Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of seedling transplantation technology, and in particular to a root protection and fixing device for transplanting forestry seedlings. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of forestry development, seedling transplantation is a crucial foundational task, widely applied in forest cultivation, urban greening, and seedling propagation. Through transplantation, the growth space of seedlings can be adjusted, forestry resource allocation optimized, and seedling survival rates and growth quality improved, while simultaneously meeting the needs of different regions for green landscape and ecological environment construction. The root system, as a key organ for seedlings to absorb water and nutrients and anchor the plant, directly affects the survival and growth status of transplanted seedlings. During transplantation, effectively protecting and securing the root system to ensure that the roots and surrounding soil (or root ball) are not excessively damaged and to maintain the physiological functions of the roots are key concerns. With the continuous development of the forestry industry and technological advancements, higher demands are placed on the efficiency and quality of seedling transplantation operations. In large-scale, professional seedling transplantation scenarios, appropriate equipment is needed to assist in the protection and fixation of the root system, adapting to the transplantation needs of different types and sizes of seedlings and ensuring the smooth progress of the transplantation work. Against this backdrop, the research and application of root protection and fixation devices for transplanted forestry seedlings have become an important support for improving the level of seedling transplantation. Therefore, a root protection and fixation device for transplanted forestry seedlings was designed.

[0003] Existing devices have limited coverage of the root system, making it difficult to achieve comprehensive protection. This leaves some roots exposed during transplantation, making them susceptible to external impacts and friction, which in turn affects the survival and growth of the seedlings after transplantation. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention relates to a root protection and fixing device for transplanting forestry seedlings, in order to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a root protection and fixing device for transplanted forestry seedlings, specifically comprising: a mobile control box; a set of rails is bolted to the front end of the mobile control box, a lifting plate that can move up and down along the rails is mounted on the rails, two sets of support frames are fixedly mounted on the lifting plate, two rail plates are bolted to the upper ends of the two sets of support frames, a movable arm that can slide left and right is mounted on the rail plate, a first toothed plate is fixedly mounted to the lower end of the movable arm, and a rotating column is mounted on the rail plate through a bearing, a first gear is fixed on the rotating column, the first gear meshes with the first toothed plate, the two sets of rotating columns are connected by a universal coupling, a gearbox is mounted on the rail plate away from the mobile control box, a first motor is mounted on the gearbox, a protective shell is fixedly mounted on the movable arm, and a rotatable hopper is mounted on the protective shell.

[0006] Furthermore, the protective shell is provided with a set of rotating rods mounted on both the front and rear ends of the protective shell via bearings. A second gear is fixed on the rotating rod, and a third gear is fixedly mounted on both the rotating rod and the rotating shaft of the hopper. The third gear on the rotating rod and the third gear on the rotating shaft of the hopper mesh with each other.

[0007] Furthermore, cylinder seats are bolted to both the front and rear ends of the protective housing, and hydraulic rods are bolted to the cylinder seats. Rail seats are fixedly installed at both the front and rear ends of the protective housing, and second toothed plates that can slide left and right are installed on the rail seats. The second toothed plates are fixedly connected to the piston rod of the hydraulic rod, and the second toothed plates mesh with the third gear.

[0008] Furthermore, the lower end of the bucket is configured with an arc-shaped structure.

[0009] Furthermore, the lower end of the mobile control box is bolted with four casters, and the front end of the mobile control box is provided with a rectangular through groove.

[0010] Furthermore, a lead screw is installed inside the mobile control box via bearings, and a motor mount is installed at the upper end of the mobile control box via bolts. A second motor is installed on the motor mount via bolts, and the output shaft of the second motor is connected to the upper end of the lead screw via a coupling.

[0011] Furthermore, the lead screw is threaded with a connecting seat, the front end of which is connected to the lifting plate by bolts. The connecting seat moves within a rectangular through slot at the front end of the mobile control box. A first folded dustproof plate is installed between the upper end of the connecting seat and the mobile control box, and a second folded dustproof plate is installed between the lower end of the connecting seat and the mobile control box. Both the first and second folded dustproof plates adopt an accordion-style structure and their surfaces are coated with an anti-corrosion coating.

[0012] Furthermore, a top box is bolted to the upper end of the mobile control box, and the motor base and the second motor are located inside the top box. The top box also contains a control module and a power module.

[0013] Furthermore, a door panel is installed on the rear side of the mobile control box via a hinge. The door panel is equipped with a door lock and a handle, and a set of fixing heads is fixed on the door panel, with toothed grooves on the fixing heads.

[0014] Furthermore, the fixing head is equipped with a meshing seat that can be installed in conjunction with the toothed groove. A spring is installed between the meshing seat and the fixing head, and an adjustment knob is threaded between the meshing seat and the fixing head. A push rod with a U-shaped structure is fixed between the two meshing seats.

[0015] This invention provides a root protection and fixing device for transplanted forestry seedlings, which has the following beneficial effects: In this invention, a protective shell is paired with a rotatable hopper. The lower end of the hopper has an arc-shaped structure, which can form a good fit with the seedling roots and soil ball, providing all-round wrapping for the roots during transplanting. At the same time, the hydraulic rod pushes the second toothed plate, and the rotation of the hopper is controlled by gear transmission, which can flexibly adjust the tightness of the wrapping.

The lifting plate is driven by a second motor through a screw drive, which can precisely adjust the height to adapt to seedlings of different sizes. The movable arm can slide left and right under the action of the first motor, gearbox and gear transmission, which makes it easy to adjust the position of the protective shell and quickly align with the seedling root system, greatly reducing manual operation steps and time, and improving transplanting efficiency.

[0017] Furthermore, the lead screw and connecting seat in the mobile control box of this invention are respectively provided with first and second folded dustproof plates at the top and bottom. They adopt an accordion-style structure and are coated with an anti-corrosion coating, which effectively prevents dust, moisture and corrosive substances from entering, and extends the service life of the lead screw and other transmission components. Loosening the adjustment knob separates the engagement seat and the fixed head, and the push rod can be easily rotated to adjust the height to meet the needs of different operators. After adjustment, tightening the knob can ensure that the push rod is fixed and stable, making the operation simple and efficient.

[0018] Furthermore, this invention achieves precise movement of each component through multiple sets of gears, toothed plate transmissions, and hydraulic rod drives, adapting to seedling root systems of different sizes and shapes. The control module inside the top box can coordinate and control each motor and hydraulic rod to ensure operational stability and avoid damage to seedlings due to operational errors.

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the described embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1 to 9 Example 1: This invention proposes a root protection and fixing device for transplanted forestry seedlings, comprising: a mobile control box 1; a set of rails 12 are bolted to the front end of the mobile control box 1, a lifting plate 2 that can move up and down along the rails 12 is installed on the rails 12, two sets of support frames 3 are fixedly installed on the lifting plate 2, two rail plates 31 are bolted to the upper ends of the two sets of support frames 3, movable arms 311 that can slide left and right are installed on the rail plates 31, a first toothed plate 3111 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the movable arms 311, and a rotating column 314 is installed on the rail plates 31 through bearings, a first gear 3141 is fixed on the rotating column 314, the first gear 3141 meshes with the first toothed plate 3111, the two sets of rotating columns 314 are connected by a universal coupling, a gearbox 312 is installed on the rail plate 31 away from the mobile control box 1, a first motor 313 is installed on the gearbox 312, a protective shell 32 is fixedly installed on the movable arms 311, and a rotatable hopper 321 is installed on the protective shell 32.

[0033] In this embodiment of the invention, the protective housing 32 is provided with a set of rotating rods 324 mounted on both the front and rear ends of the protective housing 32 via bearings. A second gear 3242 is fixed on the rotating rod 324, and a third gear 3241 is fixedly mounted on both the rotating rod 324 and the shaft of the bucket 321. The third gear 3241 on the rotating rod 324 and the third gear 3241 on the shaft of the bucket 321 mesh with each other. A cylinder seat 322 is bolted to both the front and rear ends of the protective housing 32, and a hydraulic rod 3221 is bolted to the cylinder seat 322. A rail seat 323 is fixedly mounted to both the front and rear ends of the protective housing 32, and a second toothed plate 3231 that can slide left and right is mounted on the rail seat 323. The second toothed plate 3231 and the hydraulic rod... The piston rod of 3221 is fixedly connected, and the second toothed plate 3231 meshes with the third gear 3241. Its function is: the hydraulic rod 3221 installed on the cylinder seat 322 can push the second toothed plate 3231 on the rail seat 323 to slide left and right. The second toothed plate 3231 meshes with the third gear 3241, which can drive the third gear 3241 to rotate. Since the third gear 3241 is fixed on the rotating shaft of the rotating rod 324 and the bottom bucket 321, and the two mesh with each other, the rotating rod 324 will rotate with the rotation of the third gear 3241, thereby driving the bottom bucket 321 to rotate, realizing the adjustment of the opening and closing angle of the bottom bucket 321, so as to adapt to the root system of seedlings of different sizes, better wrap and fix the root system, and avoid root damage during transplantation.

[0034] In this embodiment of the invention, the lower end of the bottom bucket 321 is set as an arc-shaped structure. Its function is to better fit the natural shape of the seedling root system and the surrounding soil ball, increase the contact area with the root system and soil ball, make the clamping force distribution more uniform, avoid the soil ball from loosening or the root system from excessive local pressure, and thus provide more stable and safe protection for the root system during the transplanting process, which helps to improve the survival rate of the seedling after transplanting.

[0035] In this embodiment of the invention, four moving wheels 11 are bolted to the lower end of the mobile control box 1. A rectangular through slot is provided at the front end of the mobile control box 1. A lead screw 13 is mounted inside the mobile control box 1 via bearings. A motor base 14 is bolted to the upper end of the mobile control box 1. A second motor 141 is bolted to the motor base 14. The output shaft of the second motor 141 is connected to the upper end of the lead screw 13 via a coupling. A connecting seat 15 is threaded onto the lead screw 13. The front end of the connecting seat 15 is bolted to the lifting plate. 2. Connection: The connecting seat 15 is movable within the rectangular through slot at the front end of the mobile control box 1. A first folded dustproof plate 151 is installed between the upper end of the connecting seat 15 and the mobile control box 1, and a second folded dustproof plate 152 is installed between the lower end of the connecting seat 15 and the mobile control box 1. Both the first folded dustproof plate 151 and the second folded dustproof plate 152 adopt an accordion-style structure and are coated with an anti-corrosion coating. Their function is to allow the four casters 11 at the lower end of the mobile control box 1 to move the entire device flexibly, facilitating its movement at different seedling transplanting sites. The mobile control box 1 features a rectangular slot at its front end, providing space for the connecting seat 15 to move smoothly up and down. Inside the mobile control box 1, the lead screw 13 is connected to the second motor 141 via a coupling. When the second motor 141 operates, it drives the lead screw 13 to rotate. Because the lead screw 13 is threaded into the connecting seat 15, its rotation translates into the up and down movement of the connecting seat 15. The connecting seat 15 is connected to the lifting plate 2, thus enabling the lifting and adjustment of the lifting plate 2 to meet various needs. To meet the needs of transplanting seedlings of different heights, the first folding dustproof plate 151 at the upper end and the second folding dustproof plate 152 at the lower end of the connecting seat 15 adopt an accordion-style structure, which can extend and retract synchronously with the up and down movement of the connecting seat 15, effectively preventing external dust, debris, moisture and other substances from entering the interior of the mobile control box 1, avoiding contamination and damage to transmission components such as the lead screw 13 and the connecting seat 15; and the anti-corrosion coating on its surface can enhance the corrosion resistance of the dustproof plate, extend its service life, and ensure the stable operation of the internal components of the mobile control box 1.

[0036] In Example 2, based on Example 1, a top box 16 is bolted to the upper end of the mobile control box 1. The motor base 14 and the second motor 141 are located inside the top box 16. The top box 16 contains a control module and a power module. The control module and power module inside the top box 16 integrate the device control and power supply system. The control module can precisely control the operation of the second motor 141 and other power components of the device, achieving coordinated operation of each component to meet different operational needs during seedling transplantation. The power module provides stable power support to the control module and each power component, ensuring that the device can work continuously and normally.

[0037] In Example 3, based on Examples 1 and 2, a door panel 17 is installed on the rear side of the mobile control box 1 via a hinge. A door lock and a handle are installed on the door panel 17, and a set of fixing heads 171 are fixed to the door panel 17. The fixing heads 171 have toothed grooves, and a meshing seat 1721 that mates with the toothed grooves is installed on the fixing heads 171. A spring is installed between the meshing seat 1721 and the fixing heads 171, and an adjusting knob 1722 is threaded between the meshing seat 1721 and the fixing heads 171. A push rod 172 is fixed between the two meshing seats 1721. The push rod 172 has a U-shaped structure, and its function is: the door lock on the door panel 17, installed on the rear side of the mobile control box 1 via the hinge, can firmly lock the door panel 17, protecting the internal components of the mobile control box 1, such as the lead screw 13 and connecting seat 15, from entering and being damaged by accidental contact; the handle is... The door panel 17 is designed for easy opening and closing by operators, facilitating the inspection, maintenance, or adjustment of internal components. The fixed head 171 on the door panel 17 has a toothed groove that engages with the meshing seat 1721. Together with the spring and adjustment knob 1722 between them, this forms the adjustment and fixing structure for the push rod 172. When the adjustment knob 1722 is loosened, the meshing seat 1721 separates from the toothed groove of the fixed head 171 under the action of the spring. At this time, the push rod 172 can be rotated to adjust its height, adapting to the usage habits and operational needs of different operators. After adjustment, tightening the adjustment knob 1722 ensures a tight engagement between the meshing seat 1721 and the toothed groove of the fixed head 171, fixing the push rod 172 in the desired position. This ensures that the push rod 172 is stable and reliable when the operator pushes the device. The U-shaped push rod 172 is easy for the operator to hold with both hands, making it easier to move the entire device and improving operational convenience.

[0038] The working principle of this invention is as follows: First, the device can be moved and its position adjusted. The operator can push the device by holding the U-shaped push rod 172, and move the entire device using the four moving wheels 11 at the lower end of the moving control box 1. This makes it easy to adjust the device next to the seedling to be transplanted. If the height of the push rod 172 needs to be adjusted, the adjustment knob 1722 is loosened. Under the action of the spring, the engagement seat 1721 separates from the toothed groove of the fixing head 171. After rotating the push rod 172 to the appropriate height, the adjustment knob 1722 is tightened to fix it, improving the convenience of operation. Top box 16 The internal power module supplies power to the second motor 141, and the control module controls the second motor 141 to start. Its output shaft drives the lead screw 13 inside the mobile control box 1 to rotate through the coupling. Since the lead screw 13 is threadedly engaged with the connecting seat 15, and the connecting seat 15 moves within the rectangular through slot at the front end of the mobile control box 1, the rotation of the lead screw 13 is converted into the up-and-down movement of the connecting seat 15, which in turn drives the lifting plate 2 connected to the connecting seat 15 to rise and fall synchronously to adapt to the needs of operating seedling root systems at different heights. During this process, the first folding dustproof plate 15... 1. The second folding dustproof plate 152 extends and retracts with the connecting seat 15, preventing dust and other contaminants from entering the interior of the mobile control box 1. The control module drives the first motor 313 to work. After the speed is adjusted by the gearbox 312, it drives the rotating column 314 to rotate. Through the meshing transmission between the first gear 3141 and the first toothed plate 3111, the movable arm 311 slides left and right along the rail plate 31, adjusting the horizontal position of the protective housing 32 so that it is aligned with the seedling roots. Subsequently, the control hydraulic rod 3221 works, and its piston rod pushes the second toothed plate 3231 along the rail seat 32. 3. Sliding left and right, the second toothed plate 3231 meshes with the third gear 3241, driving the rotating rod 324 to rotate. The third gear 3241 on the rotating rod 324 meshes with the third gear 3241 on the shaft of the bottom bucket 321, thereby driving the bottom bucket 321 to rotate. Utilizing the arc-shaped structure at the lower end of the bottom bucket 321, it fits against the seedling roots and soil ball, achieving the wrapping and fixing of the roots, avoiding root damage during transplantation. Throughout the entire process, all components work in coordination, achieving efficient protection and fixing of the roots during seedling transplantation.
