AI Technical Summary
When the planting arm of an existing rice transplanter jams due to external factors, the power system continues to output power, causing the mechanical parts to operate under overload, which affects production efficiency and increases maintenance costs.
The system employs a ball bearing and arc-shaped groove engagement mechanism. The spring force ensures that the driving and driven discs operate in tandem during normal operation. When an obstruction is encountered, the ball bearing retracts into the mounting cylinder, allowing the driven disc to rotate independently, preventing power transmission and achieving overload protection.
It effectively prevents the planting arm mechanism from operating under overload, reduces maintenance costs, and ensures production efficiency and normal equipment operation.
