Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of seedling planting technology, specifically to a seedling transplanting device and transplanting method. Background Technology
[0002] Seedling transplanting refers to the process of raising seedlings in a centralized location and then transplanting them into containers or open fields once they have grown to a certain size.
[0003] Before transplanting seedlings, they need to be dug out of the soil. Existing equipment cannot completely separate the soil in the root area of the seedling from the soil in other areas. As a result, when the seedling is dug upwards, the soil attached to the root area is scattered due to soil sticking together, which affects the moisture retention and maintenance of the seedling roots and leads to a decrease in the survival rate after transplanting. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a device for seedling transplantation, thereby achieving a high survival rate after transplantation.
[0005] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A seedling transplanting device includes a base with a slot in the middle. Two sets of symmetrically distributed movable plates are mounted on the base, and a servo module is installed on the base to drive the two sets of bases to move synchronously in opposite directions. A first electric telescopic rod is fixedly mounted on the movable plate, and a top plate is fixedly mounted on the output end of the first electric telescopic rod. A rotating plate slides on the top plate, and a motor is fixedly mounted on the top plate to drive the rotating plate to rotate. An arc-shaped mounting plate is fixedly mounted on the rotating plate, and multiple sets of spaced-apart shovels are slidably mounted on the mounting plate. The shovels are at an angle to the horizontal plane, and a second electric telescopic rod is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate to drive the shovels to move.
[0006] As a further embodiment of the present invention: a crossbar is fixedly installed on the base, a movable plate is slidably connected to the crossbar, a groove is opened on the surface of the movable plate near the base, and multiple sets of rollers are rotatably installed in the groove, with the rollers making rolling contact with the base.
[0007] As a further aspect of the present invention: the rotating plate is arc-shaped and the rotating plate penetrates the top plate from the inside. An arc-shaped mounting groove is provided on the surface of the rotating plate away from the base, and an incomplete gear ring is fixedly installed in the mounting groove.
[0008] As a further embodiment of the present invention: a mounting bracket is fixedly installed on the top plate, the motor is fixedly installed on the mounting bracket, a gear that meshes with an incomplete gear ring is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor, and a through groove is provided on the top plate for the motor output shaft to extend into the mounting groove.
[0009] As a further aspect of the present invention: a support rod is fixedly installed on the shovel plate, and the support rod is slidably connected to the mounting plate.
[0010] As a further embodiment of the present invention: a support plate is slidably installed on the base, the support plate extends into the slot, and a conical support plate is fixedly installed at one end of the support plate located in the slot.
[0011] As a further embodiment of the present invention: a base plate is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate, a connecting plate is rotatably mounted on the base plate, an arc-shaped limiting plate is fixedly mounted at the end of the connecting plate, and rotating blocks are rotatably mounted at both ends of the limiting plate, with a fixing screw threaded onto the rotating blocks.
[0012] As a further aspect of the present invention: a support plate for supporting the connecting plate is fixedly mounted on the substrate, and a fixing screw that cooperates with the support plate is threadedly connected to the connecting plate.
[0013] The present invention also provides a transplanting method, which is applied to the seedling transplanting equipment described above, and includes the following steps: Step S1: Move the base to the location of the seedling to be transplanted, so that the seedling is in the groove, and adjust the position of the base so that the seedling is at the symmetrical center of the two sets of moving plates; Step S2: The servo module drives the two sets of moving plates to move synchronously towards the seedling. When the two sets of rotating plates are distributed on the circle around the seedling, they stop. Then the first electric telescopic rod drives the top plate to move downward until the lower end of the shovel plate is close to the ground. Step S3: The second electric telescopic rod drives the shovel plate to move downward and insert into the soil. After the second electric telescopic rod extends a set distance, the shovel plate returns to its original position and leaves the soil. Then, the two adjacent sets of shovel plates fall down. After each shovel, the rotating plate rotates at a set angle so that the shovel plate rotates to the position where no soil has been shoveled. Then, the above steps are repeated to continue shoveling soil. Step S4: After the soil in the cone-shaped area where the seedling is located is completely separated from the soil in other areas, multiple sets of shovels enter the soil and descend to the same height. The first electric telescopic rod drives multiple sets of shovels to move upward. The multiple sets of shovels can lift the seedling and the large clump of soil below it upward. At this time, the seedling can be dug out. Then, push the base to move to the planting position, so that the multiple sets of shovels can lower the seedling and soil clump into the dug pit to complete the transplanting.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are: (1) In this invention, the rotating plate can be rotated and cooperated with the shovel plate to shovel soil in a complete circle around the seedling, so that the soil in the cone-shaped area where the seedling is located is completely separated from the soil in other areas. This makes it easy to dig out the seedling and soil, avoiding soil adhesion during digging and causing the soil attached to the seedling roots to fall off, thus improving the survival rate of seedling transplantation. At the same time, when the shovel plate is used to shovel soil downwards, it can squeeze the soil towards the seedling, so that the soil separated around the seedling can be squeezed tightly towards the seedling, further reducing the probability of soil attached to the seedling roots falling off.
[0015] (2) In this invention, the support plate is pushed to move the tray to the bottom of the seedling, so that the seedling and the cone-shaped soil block fall down. When the cone-shaped soil block falls into the push plate, the movement stops. At this time, the tray can be used to provide auxiliary support from the bottom of the seedling, increase the stability of the seedling, and further prevent the soil block below from falling, thereby improving the survival rate of the transplanted seedling.
[0016] (3) In this invention, the seedlings are restricted from the position of the tree trunk by the limiting plate to ensure that the seedlings remain stable during excavation and subsequent transportation. At the same time, the seedlings can also be positioned by the two sets of limiting plates, which improves the accuracy of digging and avoids excessive root damage and seedling falling during transportation, thus further improving the stability of the equipment.

[0024] 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 embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the 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.
[0025] Please see Figures 1-5 As shown, this invention is a seedling transplanting device, including a base 1, a slot 2 in the middle of the base 1, two sets of symmetrically distributed movable plates 5 on the base 1, and a servo module 4 on the base 1 that drives the two sets of base 1 to move synchronously in opposite directions. A crossbar 3 is fixedly installed on the base 1, and the movable plates 5 are slidably connected to the crossbar 3. A groove 6 is opened on the surface of the movable plate 5 near the base 1, and multiple sets of rollers 7 are rotatably installed in the groove 6. The rollers 7 roll in contact with the base 1. A first electric telescopic rod 10 is fixedly installed on the movable plate 5, and a top plate 11 is fixedly installed at the output end of the first electric telescopic rod 10. A rotating plate 12 slides on the top plate 11, and a servo module 4 is fixedly installed on the top plate 11 to drive the two sets of base 10 to move synchronously in opposite directions. The rotating plate 12 is powered by a motor 17. A mounting bracket 16 is fixedly installed on the top plate 11. The motor 17 is fixedly installed on the mounting bracket 16. A gear 18 that meshes with the incomplete gear ring 14 is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor 17. A through groove 15 is provided on the top plate 11, into which the output shaft of the motor 17 extends into the mounting groove 13. An arc-shaped mounting plate 19 is fixedly installed on the rotating plate 12. Multiple sets of spaced shovels 22 are slidably installed on the mounting plate 19. A support rod 21 is fixedly installed on the shovel 22. The support rod 21 is slidably connected to the mounting plate 19. The shovels 22 are set at an angle with the horizontal plane. A second electric telescopic rod 20 that drives the shovels 22 to move is fixedly installed on the mounting plate 19.
[0026] In practical application, the base 1 is pushed to the location of the seedling to be transplanted, so that the seedling is located in the groove 2. The position of the base 1 is adjusted so that the seedling is located at the symmetrical center of the two sets of moving plates 5. The servo module 4 drives the two sets of moving plates 5 to move synchronously towards the seedling. When the two sets of rotating plates 12 are distributed on the circle around the seedling, they stop. Then the first electric telescopic rod 10 drives the top plate 11 to move downward until the lower end of the shovel plate 22 is close to the ground. Initially, multiple shovels 22 on the two sets of moving plates 5 are symmetrically distributed. Driven by the second electric telescopic rod 20, the shovels 22 move downwards and insert into the soil. The multiple shovels 22 enter the soil in batches. Each time, two sets of shovels 22 symmetrical about the center of the seedling on the two sets of moving plates 5 move downwards synchronously. After the second electric telescopic rod 20 extends a set distance, the lower ends of the two sets of shovels 22 contact each other, at which point the two sets of shovels 22 return to their original positions and leave the soil. Then, adjacent sets of shovels 22 fall down, returning to their original positions after shoveling soil. After all the shovels 22 have shoveled soil and returned to their original positions, the motor 17 drives the rotating plate 12 to rotate at a set angle through the meshing gear 18 and the incomplete gear ring 14, causing the shovels 22 to rotate to the unshoveled position. The above steps are then repeated to continue shoveling soil. The rotating plates 12 on the two sets of moving plates 5 rotate synchronously in opposite directions. When the last set of shovels 22 completely separates the soil in the cone-shaped area where the seedling is located from the soil in other areas, this set of shovels 22 moves upwards a set distance and remains in the soil. Then, the other multiple sets of shovels 22 also enter the soil. The seedling is lowered to the same height in the soil. At this time, the first electric telescopic rod 10 drives the top plate 11 to move upward. The top plate 11 drives multiple sets of shovels 22 to move upward through the rotating plate 12 and the mounting plate 19. The multiple sets of shovels 22 can lift the seedling and the large clump of soil below it upward. At this time, the seedling can be dug out. Then, the base 1 is pushed to the planting position, so that the multiple sets of shovels 22 can put the seedling and soil clumps into the dug pit to complete the transplanting. By rotating the plate 12 and cooperating with the shovels 22, a complete circular shovel can be made around the seedling, so that the soil in the cone-shaped area where the seedling is located is completely separated from the soil in other areas. Then, the seedling and soil can be easily dug out. This avoids the soil sticking together during the digging process, which causes the soil attached to the seedling roots to fall off, thus improving the survival rate of the transplanted seedlings. At the same time, when the shovels 22 shovel the soil downward, they can squeeze the soil towards the seedling, so that the soil separated around the seedling can be squeezed tightly towards the seedling, further reducing the probability of the soil attached to the seedling roots falling off.
[0027] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the present invention is a seedling transplanting device. A support plate 8 is slidably installed on the base 1. The support plate 8 extends into the groove 2 and a conical support plate 9 is fixedly installed at one end of the support plate 8 located in the groove 2.
[0028] In practical application, after the seedling is lifted by the shovel plate 22, the support plate 8 pushes the tray 9 to move below the seedling. Then, the first electric telescopic rod 10 retracts, causing the seedling and the cone-shaped soil block to descend. When the cone-shaped soil block descends into the tray 9, it stops moving. At this time, the tray 9 can provide auxiliary support from below the seedling, increasing the stability of the seedling and further preventing the soil block below from falling off, thus improving the survival rate of the transplanted seedling.
[0029] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the present invention is a seedling transplanting device. A base plate 23 is fixedly installed on the mounting plate 19. A connecting plate 25 is rotatably installed on the base plate 23. An arc-shaped limiting plate 26 is fixedly installed at the end of the connecting plate 25. Rotating blocks 27 are rotatably installed at both ends of the limiting plate 26. A fixing screw 28 is threadedly connected to the rotating block 27.
[0030] Specifically, a support plate 24 for supporting the connecting plate 25 is fixedly mounted on the base plate 23, and a fixing screw that cooperates with the support plate 24 is threaded onto the connecting plate 25.
[0031] In practical application, before digging up the seedlings, the base 1 is adjusted and the moving plate 5 is moved to the set position. The fixing screws are released from the fixing of the connecting plate 25. Then, the connecting plate 25 is rotated so that the limiting plate 26 contacts the seedling trunk. Then, the two sets of limiting plates 26 are connected by the fixing screw 28 and the rotating block 27, so that the two sets of limiting plates 26 contact the seedling trunk but do not apply pressure. When the rotating plate 12 rotates, the limiting plate 26 can rotate synchronously with the rotating plate 12 and avoid damage to the seedling. The limiting plate 26 restricts the seedling from the position of the seedling trunk, ensuring that the seedling remains stable during digging and subsequent transportation. At the same time, the two sets of limiting plates 26 can also position the seedling, improve the accuracy of digging, avoid excessive root damage during digging and seedling falling during transportation, and further improve the stability of the equipment during use.
[0032] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, the present invention is a transplanting method applied to the seedling transplanting equipment described above, which includes the following steps: Step S1: Move the base 1 to the location of the seedling to be transplanted, so that the seedling is in the groove 2, and adjust the position of the base 1 so that the seedling is at the symmetrical center position of the two sets of moving plates 5. Step S2: The servo module 4 drives the two sets of moving plates 5 to move synchronously towards the seedling. When the two sets of rotating plates 12 are distributed on the circle around the seedling, they stop. Then the first electric telescopic rod 10 drives the top plate 11 to move downward until the lower end of the shovel plate 22 is close to the ground. Step S3: The second electric telescopic rod 20 drives the shovel plate 22 to move downward and insert into the soil. After the second electric telescopic rod 20 extends a set distance, the shovel plate 22 returns to its original position and leaves the soil. Then, the two adjacent sets of shovel plates 22 fall down. After each shovel, the rotating plate 12 is rotated by a set angle so that the shovel plate 22 rotates to the position where no soil has been shoveled. Then, the above steps are repeated to continue shoveling soil. Step S4: After the soil in the cone-shaped area where the seedling is located is completely separated from the soil in other areas, multiple sets of shovels 22 enter the soil and descend to the same height. The first electric telescopic rod 10 drives the multiple sets of shovels 22 to move upward. The multiple sets of shovels 22 can lift the seedling and the large clump of soil below it upward. At this time, the seedling can be dug out. Then, push the base 1 to move to the planting position, so that the multiple sets of shovels 22 can put the seedling and soil clump into the dug pit to complete the transplanting.
