Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural equipment technology, and in particular to an automatic filling machine for seedling nutrient pots of sweet potato. Background Technology

[0002] When filling the seedling pots of sweet potatoes, an automatic seedling pot filling machine is often used. It is an automated device specifically designed for the production of sweet potato seedlings. Its main function is to automatically fill the seedling pots with culture soil or nutrient soil to improve the efficiency and quality of seedling cultivation, and at the same time facilitate the observation of growth.

[0003] A typical automatic filling machine for sweet potato seedling pots consists of a worktable, a feeding inlet, a dispensing mechanism, and a conveyor system. During operation, the worktable acts as a support structure, providing a stable foundation to ensure the normal operation of other components and bearing the weight of the entire machine. The feeding inlet holds the soil to be filled, which is then automatically fed into the seedling pots via a toggle plate and sliding plate in the dispensing mechanism, ensuring even distribution. The conveyor system, driven by a motor, moves the soil-filled seedling pots to the next processing stage via a conveyor belt, achieving highly efficient automated operation.

[0004] However, some existing devices face the problem of loose soil during the sowing process, which makes the soil prone to collapse in subsequent operations, thus affecting the shape and stability of the seedling pots and consequently the planting effect of sweet potato seeds. To address this issue, an automatic seedling pot filling machine for sweet potato seedlings is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides an automatic filling machine for sweet potato seedling nutrient pots, which aims to improve the problem that some existing devices cannot fix the soil after placement, leading to soil collapse.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] The automatic filling machine for seedling nutrient pots of sweet potato includes a workbench, with a feeding port fixedly connected to the top of the workbench. A feeding mechanism is provided inside the feeding port, and an opening and closing mechanism is provided at the bottom of the feeding mechanism. A processing mechanism is provided on the top of the workbench.

[0008] The processing mechanism includes a support frame, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the top of the worktable. A transmission assembly is fixedly connected inside the worktable. A movable rod is rotatably connected inside the support frame. A two-way hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the outer side of the movable rod. A rotating column is rotatably connected inside the support frame. A lower pressure plate is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating column.

A right combination plate is slidably connected to the top of the transmission plate, and a left combination plate is slidably connected to the top of the transmission plate. The outside of the right combination plate is to the right of the left combination plate, and a wedge is fixedly connected to the outside of the left combination plate. By adjusting the angle of the movable rod, the outside of the wedge can be slid to push the outside of the left combination plate to the left side of the right combination plate for fitting.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0014] The feeding mechanism includes a support plate, the outside of which is fixedly connected to the top of the feed inlet, a motor is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate, and a toggle plate is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor.

[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0016] The opening and closing mechanism includes two sliding plates, which are slidably connected to the bottom of the feed inlet. Two connecting rods are rotatably connected to the outside of the sliding plates. A three-headed toothed block is slidably connected to the outside of the connecting rods, and a double-headed toothed block is fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting rods.

[0018] The bottom of the bidirectional hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the top of the movable rod, and the top of the bidirectional hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lower pressure plate.

[0019] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0020] The double-acting hydraulic cylinder applies force to the movable rod by pressing down, causing the movable rod to apply pressure to the placement assembly through the movable column. The double-acting hydraulic cylinder also applies pressure to the lower pressure plate, causing the lower pressure plate to rotate through the rotating column, which in turn causes the torsion column to drive the top rod to slide downward. The bottom of the top rod is at the top of the placement assembly.

[0021] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0022] The slider is driven to slide by the sliding rod, which causes the right-angle rod to drive the double-headed toothed block and the triple-headed toothed block to mesh with each other and push, so that the two sliding plates open to both sides.

[0023] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] 1. In this utility model, the bidirectional telescopic characteristic of the two-way hydraulic cylinder can drive the movable rod to squeeze the inclined block so that the right and left combined plates fit together to place the nutrient pot. At the same time, the top rod opens a groove in the middle of the soil to facilitate the placement of seeds. It can squeeze the soil to prevent collapse while opening grooves, which improves the efficiency and accuracy of planting. In summary, its design ensures the precision of soil filling and planting process and significantly improves the production efficiency of seedling cultivation.

[0025] 2. In this utility model, the right-angle rod is used to push the three-headed toothed block to mesh with the double-headed block, so that the connecting rod drives the sliding plate to open to both sides. This design enables precise feeding of the device and improves feeding efficiency, avoiding resource waste caused by uneven feeding, and improving the production efficiency of the device.

Detailed Implementation

[0032] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0033] Reference Figures 3 to 4 An embodiment of this utility model is provided: an automatic filling machine for seedling nutrient pots of sweet potato, including a workbench 1, a feed inlet 2 fixedly connected to the top of the workbench 1, which is designed to place the soil to be filled, a feeding mechanism is provided inside the feed inlet 2, an opening and closing mechanism is provided at the bottom of the feeding mechanism, and a processing mechanism is provided on the top of the workbench 1.

[0034] The processing mechanism includes a support frame 18, which provides a good support environment. The bottom of the support frame 18 is fixedly connected to the top of the worktable 1. A transmission component is fixedly connected inside the worktable 1. The transmission component includes a motor 13, which provides a power source when energized. The outside of the motor 13 is fixedly connected to the outside of the worktable 1. A conveyor belt 14 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 13, which can drive the filled object for transportation. A movable rod 20 is rotatably connected inside the support frame 18, providing good rotation performance. A two-way hydraulic cylinder 1 is fixedly connected to one side of the movable rod 20. 9. Its design allows for vertical telescopic adjustment. A rotating column 22 is rotatably connected inside the support frame 18, allowing for smooth rotation within the frame. A lower pressure plate 23 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating column 22. The rotating column 22 drives the lower pressure plate 23 to adjust its angle. A torsion column 24 is rotatably connected inside the lower pressure plate 23. A support block 26 is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 18. A top rod 25 is fixedly connected to the outside of the torsion column 24. Rotation of the torsion column 24 drives the top rod 25 to apply downward pressure, creating a groove in the center of the filled soil for transmission. A placement component is fixedly connected to the top of the assembly. The placement component includes a transmission plate 15, which can be stably fixed to the outside of the conveyor belt 14. The outside of the transmission plate 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the conveyor belt 14. A right combination plate 16 is slidably connected to the top of the transmission plate 15, and a left combination plate 17 is slidably connected to the top of the transmission plate 15. The cooperation between the left combination plate 17 and the right combination plate 16 allows for the placement of nutrient pots of different sizes for subsequent filling. The outside of the right combination plate 16 is to the right of the left combination plate 17. By pressing down the bidirectional hydraulic cylinder 19, force is applied to the movable rod 20, causing the movable rod 20 to move through the movable column 21 to place the component. The component is pressurized by the double-acting hydraulic cylinder 19, which presses the lower pressure plate 23. When the lower pressure plate 23 rotates by the rotating column 22, the torsion column 24 drives the top rod 25 to slide downward. The bottom of the top rod 25 is at the top of the component. The left combination plate 17 is fixedly connected to the outside of the inclined block 27. The angle of the movable rod 20 is adjusted so that the outside of the inclined block 27 can be slid, which can push the outside of the left combination plate 17 to the outside left side of the right combination plate 16 for fitting. The support frame 18 is rotatably connected to the movable column 21. The movable column 21 can drive the 20 to adjust the angle inside the support frame 18.

[0035] Reference Figures 1 to 2The feeding mechanism includes a support plate 3, which is designed to provide a good support platform. The support plate 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the feed inlet 2. A motor 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 3. A toggle plate 5 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 4 to prevent soil from clogging during feeding. The motor 4 is the power source for driving the toggle plate 5. The opening and closing mechanism includes two sliding plates 6, which can accurately feed soil. The two sliding plates 6 are slidably connected to the bottom of the feed inlet 2. Two connecting rods 10 are rotatably connected to the outside of the sliding plates 6, providing good support performance. Three-headed toothed blocks 11 are slidably connected to the outside of the connecting rods 10, and double-headed toothed blocks 12 are fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting rods 10. The outside of the three-headed toothed blocks 11 and the outside of the double-headed toothed blocks 12 are mutually... The two slide plates 6 are connected by a meshing connection. The three-headed toothed block 11 and the two-headed toothed block 12 mesh with each other, which allows the two slide plates 6 to move to both sides. A right-angle rod 9 is fixedly connected to the outside of the sliding plate 6, which can be adjusted at a good angle. A slider 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the right-angle rod 9. A slide rod 7 is slidably connected to the bottom of the slider 8. The slider 8 can drive the right-angle rod 9 to adjust the angle by sliding the slider 8 outside the slide rod 7. The bottom of the slide rod 7 is fixedly connected to the outside of the feed port 2. The bottom of the bidirectional hydraulic cylinder 19 is fixedly connected to the top of the movable rod 20. The top of the bidirectional hydraulic cylinder 19 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lower pressure plate 23. The slider 8 is driven to slide by the slide rod 7, which causes the right-angle rod 9 to drive the two-headed toothed block 12 and the three-headed toothed block 11 to mesh with each other and push, so that the two slide plates 6 open to both sides.

[0036] Working Principle: During soil filling, the movable rod 20 is driven by the bidirectional hydraulic cylinder 19 to extend and retract vertically. The movement of the movable rod 20 not only adjusts the material dispensing height but also ensures that the soil is evenly distributed in each nutrient pot. Simultaneously, the rotating column 22 adjusts accordingly with the movement of the movable rod, ensuring that the lower pressure plate 23 remains horizontal or at an appropriate angle, guaranteeing the accuracy of the pressure groove. After filling, the lower pressure plate 23, through the angle adjustment of the rotating column 22, drives the torsion column 24 to rotate, thereby causing the top rod 25 to apply downward pressure, creating grooves in the filled soil for subsequent seed sowing. This operation is achieved through the combined force of the torsion column 24 and the top rod 25, ensuring precise depth and position of the grooves. In the placement assembly, the right combination plate 16 and the left combination plate 17 above the transmission plate 15 are slidably connected, allowing for flexible adaptation to nutrient pots of different sizes. As the workflow progresses, the pressure applied by the movable rod 20 provides support for the placement components through the movable column 21, while also ensuring a tight fit between the two combination plates. At the same time, the fit between the right combination plate 16 and the left combination plate 17 can compact the soil inside the nutrient pot, preventing collapse during the seed placement process.

[0037] Soil is placed in the inlet 2, and the support plate 3 is fixed to the top of the inlet 2 as a support platform, ensuring that the motor 4 can work normally. After the motor 4 starts, it drives the actuating plate 5 through its output end. The actuating plate 5 intervenes in the soil feeding process to prevent soil blockage during feeding. At the same time, the sliding plate 6 is supported and fixed by multiple connecting rods 10, each connecting rod connected to the sliding plate 6, thus providing a stable feeding platform. The outside of the sliding plate 6 is connected by set toothed blocks. The three-headed toothed block 11 and the double-headed toothed block 12 mesh with each other to form a transmission system, which allows the two sliding plates 6 to move precisely to both sides and gradually release the soil. When it is necessary to adjust the feeding angle of the sliding plate 6, the slider 8 adjusts the angle of the right-angle rod 9 by sliding the slider 7, thereby changing the opening range and position of the sliding plate 6, so that the soil is fed smoothly.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
