Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of intelligent suspended conveying systems, and particularly relates to a self-propelled conveying device for seedling trays in greenhouses. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of modern facility agriculture, soilless cultivation technology has become the core mode of greenhouse seedling production due to its advantages such as strong controllability of the growth environment, short crop growth cycle and high resource utilization rate. In soilless cultivation systems, seedling trays usually carry liquid or semi-liquid culture solutions containing specific nutrients, which places extremely high demands on the stability of the transportation process. Intelligent suspended conveying systems have been widely used in large-scale seedling factories because they can make full use of the greenhouse top space, reduce ground interference and achieve fully automated operation.

[0003] The greenhouse environment is kept in a high-humidity environment all year round, and condensation film easily forms on the surface of the metal track. When traditional friction wheel conveyor devices brake, the coefficient of friction at the track interface will decrease significantly, resulting in uncontrolled sliding. This makes it impossible for the device to stop accurately at the automated work position of the seeder or transplanter. At the same time, the suspended structure has a low center of gravity. During emergency braking or position locking, the conveyor will swing violently due to inertia. This swing will cause a large amount of nutrient solution in the hydroponics tray to leak due to vibration, which will not only cause nutrient loss, but also easily contaminate the planting area below. It may even cause the seedling tray to tip over in the support seat. Moreover, the existing tray fixation mostly relies on simple fixed fences, which cannot provide adaptive flexible protection for trays of different weights or sizes. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems of existing conveying devices, such as the susceptibility of positioning accuracy to interference, the tendency of existing conveying devices to cause liquid spillage due to braking inertia, and the low degree of automation of existing conveying device pallet limiting mechanisms.

[0077] 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.

[0078] Please see Figures 1-10 The present invention provides a technical solution: a self-propelled conveying device for seedling trays in greenhouses, including a track 1, multiple travel grooves 2 on both sides of the track 1, slides 3 on the top and bottom of the track 1, a conveying basket 4 at the bottom of the track 1, and two seedling trays 5 inside the conveying basket 4.

[0079] The traveling mechanism 6 includes two chassis 603 respectively located on both sides of the track 1. The outer wall of the track of the chassis 603 is provided with a plurality of traveling teeth 604 at equal intervals. The device is driven to travel along the track 1 by the alternating engagement of the traveling teeth 604 and the traveling groove 2.

[0080] The stabilizing mechanism 7 includes a buffer column 709 located above the conveying basket 4. A third spring 710 is provided on the outside of the buffer column 709. When the device stops moving, the third spring 710 absorbs the inertial force to keep the conveying basket 4 stable.

[0081] The supporting mechanism 8 includes multiple protective plates 810 arranged around the axis of the seedling tray 5. The multiple protective plates 810 form a protective area to limit the inertial displacement of the seedling tray 5.

[0082] The traveling mechanism 6 also includes:

[0083] The outer casing 601 is fitted onto the outside of the track 1;

[0084] Support plate 602, two support plates 602 are respectively provided on the inner walls of both sides of the outer shell 601;

[0085] The first motor 605 is connected to the chassis 603 via a gearbox 805;

[0086] The rotating frame 606 has one end rotatably connected to the corresponding position on the outer wall of the support plate 602, and the other end rotatably connected to the corresponding position on the outer wall of the chassis 603.

[0087] The traveling mechanism 6 also includes:

[0088] The first stroke groove 608 is formed at a corresponding position on the outer wall of the support plate 602;

[0089] The extrusion block 610 has one side slidably connected to the first stroke groove 608 via a column.

[0090] Linkage rod 607, two linkage rods 607 are respectively located on both sides of the extrusion block 610, one end of linkage rod 607 is rotatably connected to the corresponding position of the outer wall of the extrusion block 610, and the other end of linkage rod 607 is rotatably connected to the corresponding position of the outer wall of the chassis 603.

[0091] The second stroke groove 609 is located on the outer wall of the linkage rod 607 at the corresponding position.

[0092] The traveling mechanism 6 also includes:

[0093] Push-pull tube 613, the top end of push-pull tube 613 is connected to the corresponding position at the bottom of extrusion block 610;

[0094] A lead screw 611, the top end of which is inserted into the bottom end of the push-pull tube 613;

[0095] The second motor 612 is mounted on one side of the support plate 602 via the plate body, and the output end of the second motor 612 is connected to the bottom end of the lead screw 611.

[0096] The movable block 614 has one outer wall connected to the outer wall of the support plate 602 via a column, and a second spring 703 is provided on the outside of the column. The two ends of the second spring 703 are respectively connected to the corresponding positions of the outer wall of the support plate 602 and the outer wall of the movable block 614.

[0097] Locking teeth 615, multiple locking teeth 615 are provided on one side of the outer wall of the movable block 614.

[0098] Specifically: Both the first motor 605 and the second motor 612 are controlled by the intelligent control system. The second motor 612 drives the lead screw 611 to rotate through its output end. The external thread on the outer wall of the lead screw 611 meshes with the internal thread on the inner wall of the push-pull tube 613. The forward rotation of the lead screw 611 causes the push-pull tube 613 to move away from the lead screw 611 along the direction of the lead screw 611. The top of the push-pull tube 613 pushes the pressing block 610, separating the pressing block 610 from the moving block 614. The first spring 616 releases its preload, pulling the moving block 614 back to its original position, causing the locking tooth 615 to exit the travel groove 2. One side of the column of the pressing block 610 slides from one end of the first travel groove 608 to the other end. The movement of the pressing block 610 drives... The linkage rod 607 rotates around the end that is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the extrusion block 610. The column of the outer wall of the rotating frame 606 moves from the end of the second stroke groove 609 near the chassis 603 to the end away from the chassis 603. The linkage rod 607 pushes the column of the outer wall of the rotating frame 606 through the second stroke groove 609, causing the rotating frame 606 to rotate around its fulcrum. The two rotating frames 606 rotate synchronously, driving the chassis 603 to move closer to the track 1, so that the traveling teeth 604 set on the outer wall of the chassis 603 are accurately embedded in the traveling groove 2. The first motor 605 drives the track outside the chassis 603 to rotate, so that the traveling teeth 604 and the traveling groove 2 mesh sequentially, thereby driving the device to translate axially along the guide rail.

[0099] Furthermore, when the device reaches the target position, the second motor 612 reverses and drives the lead screw 611 to rotate in the opposite direction, causing the push-pull tube 613 to retract along the direction of the lead screw 611. The top of the push-pull tube 613 pulls the extrusion block 610. The extrusion block 610 drives the rotating frame 606 to rotate in the opposite direction through the linkage rod 607, causing the chassis 603 to move away from the track 1 and the traveling tooth 604 to disengage from the traveling groove 2. During this process, the extrusion block 610 extrudes the moving block 614 away from the outer wall of the track 1 through the protrusion, forcing the moving block 614 to overcome the elastic force of the first spring 616 and move closer to the track 1. The moving block 614 drives the locking tooth 615 to move synchronously, so that the locking tooth 615 is embedded in the traveling groove 2 to implement mechanical rigid locking. In the high humidity environment inside the greenhouse, the surface of the track 1 is prone to condensation film. The deep engagement between the locking tooth 615 and the traveling groove 2 avoids the increase in braking distance due to the decrease in the interface friction coefficient, ensuring the static positioning accuracy of the conveying device at the target preset position.

[0100] It should be noted that the selection of the first motor 605 and the second motor 612 in the above description is based on the needs. This part is well-known technology in the field and will not be described in detail here.

[0101] It should be noted that the lead screw 611 and the push-pull tube 613 constitute a lead screw structure in the above description. The lead screw is a precision transmission element that converts rotary motion into linear motion or vice versa. Its core function is to convert rotary motion into linear motion. It achieves high-precision and high-efficiency linear transmission through thread structure and rolling friction. This part is well-known technology in the field and will not be described in detail here.

[0102] Please see Figures 7-8 The stabilizing agency 7 also includes:

[0103] Rotary seat 701, the top of which is connected to the bottom of housing 601;

[0104] First connecting seat 702, and multiple first connecting seats 702 are arranged around the axis of rotating seat 701 at the bottom of housing 601;

[0105] Second connecting seat 704, multiple second connecting seats 704 are arranged around the axis of rotating seat 701 at the bottom of housing 601.

[0106] Stabilizing agency 7 also includes:

[0107] The second support rod 706, one end of which is rotatably connected to the corresponding second connecting seat 704;

[0108] The first support rod 705 has one end rotatably connected to the first connecting seat 702 at the corresponding position, and the other end of the first support rod 705 is rotatably connected to the corresponding position of the second support rod 706.

[0109] The second spring 703, a plurality of second springs 703 are arranged around the axis of the rotating seat 701 at the bottom of the outer shell 601, and the two ends of the second spring 703 are respectively rotatably connected to the first connecting seat 702 and the first support rod 705 at the corresponding positions through the block.

[0110] Stabilizing agency 7 also includes:

[0111] Connecting rod 707, the top end of connecting rod 707 is connected to the bottom end of second support rod 706;

[0112] The top of the connecting plate 708 is connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 707, and the top of the buffer column 709 passes through the bottom of the connecting plate 708.

[0113] Stabilizer 711 is located below connecting plate 708.

[0114] Stabilizing agency 7 also includes:

[0115] The deflection shaft 712 is connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 708 at its bottom end, and the bottom end of the deflection shaft 712 passes through the inside of the stabilizer 711.

[0116] Limiting rods 713, multiple limiting rods 713 are arranged around the axis of deflection shaft 712 at the bottom of connecting plate 708;

[0117] Limiting grooves 714, multiple limiting grooves 714 are formed around the axis of the stabilizer 711 and are located on the top of the stabilizer 711.

[0118] Specifically: when the device reaches the predetermined point and the traveling mechanism 6 performs position locking, the conveying basket 4 experiences a swinging tendency due to the instantaneous inertial load pointing in its traveling direction. The bottom of the stabilizing seat 711 is embedded in the top of the conveying basket 4, and the stabilizing seat 711 shifts synchronously with the conveying basket 4. The bottom end of the deflection shaft 712 is set as a sphere, and the outer wall of the sphere slides relative to the inner wall of the stabilizing seat 711. The stabilizing seat 711 shifts relative to the deflection shaft 712, and the limiting rod 713 moves within the limiting groove 714 to limit the maximum deflection angle and prevent the moving seat from over-deflecting. The buffer column 709 located on the deflection side retracts, and the third spring 710 at the corresponding position is compressed. The third spring 710 absorbs inertial force through its own elasticity. The buffer column 709 on the opposite side extends, and the third spring 710 at the corresponding position is stretched. The third spring 710 also absorbs inertial force through its own elasticity. The elastic deformation of the third spring 710 performs primary absorption of inertial load. The residual inertial force is transmitted to the second support rod 706 through the connecting rod 707, driving the first support rod 705 to rotate around its hinge point with the connecting seat and compress the second spring 703. The elastic deformation of the second spring 703 performs secondary absorption of residual inertial load. Through two-stage elastic buffering, the inertial impact is dissipated and balanced step by step.

[0119] Please see Figures 9-10 The supporting institution 8 also includes:

[0120] Support seat 801 is located inside the conveyor basket 4;

[0121] The limiting tube 802 is connected at its top end to the bottom of the support 801.

[0122] Trigger plate 803, which is located above support base 801;

[0123] Rack 804, the top end of rack 804 is connected to the bottom end of trigger plate 803;

[0124] Gear 805 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of one side of the limiting tube 802 via the plate, and driver 806 is installed on the other side of the plate.

[0125] The supporting institution 8 also includes:

[0126] The first rotating rod 807, and multiple first rotating rods 807 are arranged around the axis of the support 801, and the outer wall of the protective plate 810 is connected to the side wall of the first rotating rod 807;

[0127] Third rotating rod 809, multiple third rotating rods 809 are arranged around the axis of trigger plate 803, and one end of the third rotating rod 809 is rotatably connected to the corresponding position of trigger plate 803;

[0128] The second rotating rod 808, and multiple second rotating rods 808 are arranged around the axis of the trigger plate 803. One end of the second rotating rod 808 is rotatably connected to the corresponding position of the first rotating rod 807, and the other end of the second rotating rod 808 is rotatably connected to the other end of the third rotating rod 809.

[0129] Anti-slip strip 811 is located at the corresponding position on the outer wall of the first rotating rod 807.

[0130] Specifically, the trigger plate 803 integrates a weight sensor. When the seedling tray 5 is placed on top of the trigger plate 803 and presses down on it due to its own weight, the weight sensor is triggered. The weight sensor sends a signal to start the driver 806. The driver 806 drives the gear 805 to rotate. The gear 805 meshes with the rack 804, which drives the rack 804 to move downward. The rack 804 pulls the trigger plate 803 downward in sync. The trigger plate 803 pulls the third rotating rod 809, which in turn pulls the second rotating rod 808. The first rotating rod 807 rotates synchronously around its bottom end as an axis. The top of the first rotating rod 807 drives the two protective plates 810 to move synchronously. The four first rotating rods 807 converge inwards synchronously, causing the eight protective plates 810 to converge inwards synchronously, surrounding the seedling tray 5. The protective plates 801 are made of elastic material. The protective plates 801 absorb and dissipate the instantaneous inertial load generated by the seedling tray 5 through the elastic deformation of the material. The anti-slip strip 811 abuts against the edges of the seedling tray 5 to prevent the seedling tray 5 from sliding and to prevent the culture solution in the seedling tray 5 from leaking due to inertial force when the device stops.

[0131] Working principle: When in use, the operator places the seedling tray 5 containing the seedlings into the supporting mechanism 8. The seedling tray 5 presses down on the trigger plate 803, triggering the protective plate 810 to converge inward and fix the position of the seedling tray 5. After the seedling tray 5 is placed, the operator controls the first motor 605 and the second motor 612 through the intelligent control system, so that the traveling mechanism 6 drives the entire device and the seedling tray 5 to move along the track 1.
