[0022] It should be noted that, at present, the vegetable seedling industry generally adopts the traditional matrix filling method, which mainly relies on manual operation; however, this method has many disadvantages, among which the most prominent are the problems of low efficiency and uneven filling. First, the efficiency of manual filling of the matrix is ​​very low. In the process of vegetable seedling cultivation, the number of planting trays is usually quite large, and each planting tray needs to be filled with matrix. If manual filling is adopted, workers need to add the matrix to the planting tray one by one. This process is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also with the increase in the number of fillings, the workers' work efficiency will gradually decrease, resulting in the extension of the cycle of the entire seedling cultivation process; secondly, manual filling of the matrix is ​​prone to uneven filling. Due to the interference of human factors, it is difficult for workers to ensure that the quality of the matrix in each planting tray is completely consistent during the filling process. This uneven filling situation will cause the seedlings to be affected by different soil conditions during the growth process, thereby affecting their growth quality and yield. In addition, uneven filling may also lead to greater growth differences between seedlings, increasing the difficulty of later management; in view of the above problems, it is particularly urgent to develop an efficient and precise automatic filling device for the planting tray matrix for vegetable seedling cultivation;
