[0002] As one of the important food crops in the world, potatoes are widely planted and have important economic value. In the traditional potato planting process, there are a series of problems and challenges. During the potato planting process, we first cut the potatoes into pieces and plant each piece of the cut potatoes one by one. The existing planting methods are divided into two types. The first is manual planting, which has a large labor intensity and low efficiency. The second is to use a planter for assistance and put the potato pieces into the planter, but it requires operators to assist, and generally two people need to operate simultaneously to complete, which is more cumbersome to use. Based on this, we designed a planter that can automatically feed, open trenches and cover soil, which can greatly improve the planting efficiency. Content of the Utility Model

Specific embodiments
[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is hereby declared that the upper, lower, left, right, front, rear, inner, outer and other orientation terms that appear or will appear in the text of the present utility model are only based on the accompanying drawings of the present utility model, and they do not specifically limit the present utility model.
[0022] As Figures 1-4 shown, a potato planter includes a fixed frame 1, a planting mechanism 2 and a fertilizer application mechanism 3. The fixed frame 1 is a rectangular frame structure, and the planting mechanism 2 and the fertilizer application mechanism 3 are respectively arranged on the upper part of the fixed frame 1. The planting mechanism 2 includes a storage tank 201, a conveying chain 203, a sprocket 209, a material guiding groove 202 and a scraping frame 208. The storage tank 201 is arranged on the upper part of the fixed frame 1. A material guiding groove 202 is arranged on one side of the storage tank 201. A sprocket 209 and a conveying chain 203 are arranged inside the material guiding groove 202 to form a transmission structure. A number of card slots for material lifting are arranged on the conveying chain 203. The scraping frame 208 is arranged on the second rotating shaft 204, and the second rotating shaft 204 is connected to the storage tank 201 through a bearing seat. A first gear 206 is arranged at one end of the second rotating shaft 204, and the first gear 206 is connected to the second gear 207 on the first rotating shaft 205. The scraping frame 208 is a flexible disturbance frame, and the scraping frame 208 is arranged close to the card slots of the conveying chain 203.
[0023] It should be noted that during potato planting, in order to improve the utilization efficiency of seeds, we will cut the potato seeds into pieces, which can increase the planting area. However, during the potato planting process after cutting, the manual planting method is not efficient, and the existing planting equipment will lift multiple potato pieces together during the process of lifting the potato pieces, which affects the uniformity of planting and cannot carry out fertilization at the same time. Based on this, we designed a planter that can automatically load, dig trenches and cover soil, which can greatly improve the efficiency of planting.
[0024] It should be further explained that in order to realize automatic loading of potato pieces inside the storage trough 201, a guide trough 202 is provided on one side of the storage trough 201, and automatic loading is performed through the card slot on the internal conveying chain 203. During the rotation of the conveying chain 203, the potato pieces in the card slot are peeled off and fall into the opened ditch, thereby realizing automatic planting.
[0025] It should be further explained that, in order to realize the driving of the conveying chain 203, we provide a driving mechanism 6 connected with the first rotating shaft 205 to realize transmission.
[0026] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the fertilization mechanism 3 is arranged on one side of the planting mechanism 2, and the fertilization mechanism 3 includes a fertilization box 301, a feed port 304, a guide roller 306, a guide hole 305 and a feed pipe 302. The fertilization box 301 is a rectangular hollow structure with an upper opening, a feed port 304 is arranged at the bottom of the fertilization box 301, and a feed pipe 302 is arranged on the feed port 304; a guide roller 306 is arranged at the feed port 304 of the fertilization box 301, and a guide hole 305 is arranged on the guide roller 306, and the guide hole 305 is arranged corresponding to the feed port 304, and one end of the guide roller 306 is connected to the driving mechanism 6.
[0027] It should be noted that in order to realize automatic fertilization during the planting process, we set a fertilizer box 301 on the upper part of the fixed frame 1, and the bottom of the fertilizer box 301 is provided with a discharge port 304 and a discharge pipe 302 for discharging fertilizer, and in order to guide the material evenly, we set a guide roller 306 at the discharge port 304 inside the fertilizer box 301, and discharge the material through the guide hole 305 under the rotation of the guide roller 306. The advantage of this design is that the discharge depends on the rotation of the guide roller 306, and the discharge is stopped immediately when the guide roller 306 stops, which is convenient for the operator to control.
[0028] like Figure 3As shown in the figure, the drive mechanism 6 includes a first sprocket 601, a second sprocket 602, a third sprocket 603, a fourth sprocket and a drive chain 604. The first sprocket 601, the second sprocket 602 and the fourth sprocket are respectively arranged on a first rotating shaft 205, a material guiding roller 306 and a main shaft 7. The fourth sprocket on the main shaft 7 is connected to the first sprocket 601 and the second sprocket 602 through the drive chain 604. The third sprocket 603 is connected to the side of the fertilizer box 301 through a coupling, and the third sprocket 603 is arranged at the connection with the drive chain 604. The main shaft 7 is arranged on the fixed frame 1, and rotating wheels 5 are respectively arranged at both ends of the main shaft 7.
[0029] It should be noted that the design of the drive mechanism 6 is to transmit the power generated when the main shaft 7 rotates, and transmit it to the first rotating shaft 205 and the second rotating shaft 204 through the drive chain 604, so as to realize the rotation of the conveying chain 203 and the rotation of the scraping frame 208, and at the same time, the material guiding roller 306 on the second sprocket 602 can be driven.
[0030] It should be further noted that during driving, the operator connects the fixed frame 1 with the traction device. Under the rotation of the rotating wheels 5, the main shaft 7 is rotated, and then all components are driven through the drive mechanism 6.
[0031] As Figures 1-4 shown in the figure, a ditch opener 4 is arranged at one end of the fixed frame 1, a connecting rod 9 is arranged at the other end of the fixed frame 1, a soil covering plate 8 is arranged on the connecting rod 9, the soil covering plate 8 is connected to the connecting rod 9 through a connecting buckle 10, and a limiting hole is arranged on the upper part of the connecting buckle 10. An opening and closing plate 303 is arranged at the feeding port of the fertilizer box 301, and a lifting handle is arranged on the opening and closing plate 303
[0032] It should be noted that the setting of the ditch opener 4 is to open a ditch in the ridge soil, and after the fertilizer and potato pieces are introduced, the ditch is covered with soil through the soil covering plate 8 to realize automatic planting.
[0033] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
