Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of potato planting, in particular to a potato seed cutting and dicing water flow platform device. Background Art
[0002] Cutting potato seeds into pieces is a crucial step in potato cultivation. To ensure uniform potato seedling emergence, the apical dominance must be broken. This is done by splitting the potato seed stock vertically through the apical bud, cutting it into two pieces, and then cutting them separately. Each piece should weigh at least 30 grams and have one to two buds.
[0003] Nowadays, potato cultivation is mainly carried out on a small scale throughout the country all year round, and the seeds used are mainly original seeds that are manually cut into pieces, commonly known as digging sprout seeds.
[0004] At present, potato seed cutting machines are not available to small-scale growers, or they can only cut seeds manually due to high costs and site limitations. Manual seed cutting is done scattered in a field, with manual seeding and collection of buds, and then manual processing and bagging. This method of seed cutting is ineffective, with many repetitive actions, inconsistent standards, low efficiency, and the need for many casual workers, resulting in the problem of low efficiency and poor quality of seed cutting.

[0007] Furthermore, the seed loading box is a bucket-shaped structure, and the width of the seed inlet at the top of the seed loading box is greater than the width of the seed supply opening at the bottom of the seed loading box.
[0008] Furthermore, the frame includes columns, cross beams and connecting beams. The columns are vertically arranged, and cross beams arranged along the conveying direction of the conveyor are installed on the top of the columns. Connecting beams are arranged between the columns at both ends.
[0009] Furthermore, the top of the seed box is connected to the crossbeam, and the side of the seed box is connected to the connecting beam.
[0010] Furthermore, a support column is installed at the bottom of the connecting beam, and the seed cutting platform is horizontally arranged and connected to the support column.
[0011] Furthermore, the cross section of the seed cutting platform is larger than the cross section of the seed supply port.
[0012] Furthermore, the collecting guide plate is symmetrically mounted on the frame, and the collecting guide plate is tilted in a direction in which the bottom end approaches the conveyor.
[0013] Furthermore, the distance between the bottom ends of the two collecting guide plates is smaller than the width of the conveyor belt of the conveyor.

[0030] Example 1
[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown:
[0032] A potato seed cutting flow platform device comprises a seed loading box 2, a seed cutting platform 3 and a conveyor 5 which are sequentially mounted on a frame from top to bottom.
[0033] The frame includes columns 11, beams 12 and connecting beams 13. The columns 11 are vertically arranged. The tops of the columns 11 are equipped with beams 12 arranged along the conveying direction of the conveyor 5. Connecting beams 13 are arranged between the columns 11 at both ends.
[0034] The seed box 2 is a bucket-shaped structure. The width of the seed inlet 21 at the top of the seed box 2 is greater than the width of the seed supply opening at the bottom of the seed box 2. The bucket-shaped structure facilitates the gathering of potato seeds toward the seed supply opening at the bottom.
[0035] The top of the seed box 2 is connected to the crossbeam 12 , and the side of the seed box 2 is connected to the connecting beam 13 . The connecting beam 13 of the frame provides support for the seed box 2 .
[0036] The seed cutting platform 3 is located just below the seed supply opening at the bottom of the seed loading box 2 , and the cross section of the seed cutting platform 3 is larger than the cross section of the seed supply opening.
[0037] A support column 14 is installed at the bottom of the connecting beam 13. The seed cutting platform 3 is horizontally arranged and connected to the support column 14. The side of the seed cutting platform 3 is connected to the column 11 of the frame. The connecting beam 13 further provides support for the seed cutting platform 3 through the support column 14.
[0038] Baffles 31 are provided around the edges of the seed-cutting platform 3 to prevent potato seeds scattered on the seed-cutting platform 3 from sliding off.
[0039] Two collecting guide plates 4 mounted on the frame are provided between the conveyor 5 and the seed cutting platform 3 , and a seed block entrance is provided between the collecting guide plates 4 and the seed cutting platform 3 .
[0040] The collecting guide plate 4 is symmetrically mounted on the frame, and the collecting guide plate 4 is tilted in a direction in which the bottom end approaches the conveyor 5 .
[0041] The distance between the bottom ends of the two collecting guide plates 4 is smaller than the width of the conveyor belt of the conveyor 5 .
[0042] The collecting guide plate 4 is provided to allow the cut potato seed sprout blocks to slide directionally onto the conveyor 5, facilitating subsequent bagging.
[0043] Symmetrically placed seats 6 are provided on both sides of the frame, and operators can sit on the seats 6 to perform potato seed cutting work.
[0044] A loader or potato elevator is provided at the front end of the conveying direction of the conveyor 5, and a seed mixer and a bagging machine are provided at the rear end of the conveying direction of the conveyor 5.
[0045] The working process of this embodiment is as follows: a loader or potato elevator loads raw potato seeds into a platform hopper, automatically placing them on a seed cutting platform 3. A worker sitting on a manual chair 6 cuts the raw potato seeds into bud blocks using a seed cutter and places them into a seed block inlet. The bud blocks are then guided onto a conveyor 5 via a collecting guide plate 4. The conveyor 5 then transfers the bud blocks to one end, either to a seed mixer for seed processing and bagging, or to another location for seed processing and bagging. This completes the streamlined cutting and processing of potato seeds, streamlining the potato seed cutting process and improving seed cutting efficiency.
[0046] Example 2
[0047] like Figure 3-Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the support column 14 is eliminated, and the seed cutting platform 3 is slidably connected to the frame.
[0048] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a slider 32 is installed on the side of the seed cutting platform 3 near the frame column 11, and a guide column 33 is installed on the column 11 near the slider 32. A circular hole is opened in the middle of the slider 32, and the seed cutting platform 3 is slidably connected to the guide column 33 through the circular hole in the center of the slider 32.
[0049] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a weight sensing mechanism mounted on a frame is provided below the seed cutting platform 3 , and the weight sensing mechanism is connected to the frame via a fixing plate 72 .
[0050] The fixing plate 72 is fixedly connected to the column 11 of the frame, and the weight sensing mechanism is installed on the fixing plate 72 and is aligned with the seed cutting platform 3.
[0051] The weight sensing mechanism includes a weighing sensor 7, and a plurality of support arms 71 are provided on the side of the weighing sensor 7 near the top. The top surface of the support arm 71 is at the same height as the top of the weighing sensor 7. The top surface of the support arm 71 and the top surface of the weighing sensor 7 are in contact with the bottom surface of the seed cutting platform 3. The seed cutting platform 3 is placed on the top of the weighing sensor 7 and its support arms 71.
[0052] like Figure 6 As shown, a mounting frame 22 is provided inside the seed box 2, and a liftable sealing plate 23 is provided at the seed supply opening at the bottom of the seed box 2.
[0053] A frustum-shaped connecting block 24 is mounted on the sealing plate 23 to provide guidance for the potato seeds in the seed box 2 to slide downward.
[0054] A cylinder 25 for driving the sealing plate 23 to move up and down is provided on the mounting frame 22 , and a telescopic end of the cylinder 25 is connected to a connecting block 24 on the sealing plate 23 .
[0055] A controller can also be set up, and the cylinder 25 and the weighing sensor 7 are electrically connected to the controller respectively. The processing module of the controller presets the maximum and minimum weight values. The processing module of the controller receives the data information of the weighing sensor 7 and compares it with the maximum and minimum weight values, thereby controlling the action of the cylinder 25.
[0056] When this embodiment is in use, the operator pours potato seeds into the seed box 2. In the initial state, no potato seeds are placed on the seed cutting platform 3. At this time, the weighing sensor 7 senses that there is no weight on the seed cutting platform 3. The controller compares the weight data of the weighing sensor 7 with the preset maximum and minimum weight values.
[0057] When the weighing sensor 7 senses that the weight of the potato seeds carried on the seed cutting platform 3 is less than the preset minimum weight, the controller sends a signal to the cylinder 25, and the cylinder 25 drives the telescopic end to extend and drives the sealing plate 23 and the connecting block 24 to move downward, and the potato seeds in the seed box 2 slide along the side guide of the connecting block 24 and fall onto the seed cutting platform 3.
[0058] When the load cell 7 senses that the weight of the potato seeds on the seed cutting platform 3 is greater than the preset maximum weight, the controller sends a signal to the cylinder 25, which drives the telescopic end of the cylinder 25 to extend and drives the sealing plate 23 and the connecting block 24 upward. The sealing plate 23 blocks the seed supply port of the seed box 2, and the potato seeds in the seed box 2 no longer fall. The operator then performs the potato seed cutting operation.
[0059] The convenience of potato seed supply is improved by setting a weight sensing mechanism, which avoids pouring potato seeds into the seed box 2 frequently for a long time, reduces labor intensity and waiting time for pouring, and improves the convenience of seed cutting work.
[0060] The utility model effectively replaces the disordered work process of traditional manual seeding and manual collection of bud blocks and manual processing and bagging by arranging a seed box, a seed cutting platform and a conveyor, so as to standardize the potato seed cutting process and improve the seed cutting efficiency.
[0061] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
