Description

Technical Field

[0002] Due to many factors such as natural environment constraints, market fluctuation risks, changes in farmers' concepts, and labor quality, the vegetable industry in some areas is difficult to develop on a large scale. Many farmers can only meet the basic household self-sufficiency needs and cannot adapt to large-scale planting work. Moreover, due to size limitations and driving capacity limitations of some small automatic seeding machines, materials with heavier mass and greater strength cannot be used as components for digging and turning the soil, resulting in a relatively high damage rate, and it is not easy to disassemble and repair, with a relatively high maintenance and replacement cost. In addition, the functions of most automatic seeding machines are limited and cannot complete the entire seeding process, requiring farmers to spend a lot of time participating in the seeding work, and still unable to effectively help farmers complete the work with a large labor intensity.

In addition, since the force on the soil loosening assembly part is the largest, through the structural design of the first arc-shaped rod and the second arc-shaped rod, the strength of the first arc-shaped rod and the second arc-shaped rod can be better, they can bear greater stress, and at the same time the service life is longer, the replacement frequency is low, thus the use cost is low. Moreover, this device can automatically complete the whole process of planting work such as plowing, seeding and soil covering, greatly reducing the labor intensity and also reducing the labor cost.
