Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to transplanting machine technical field especially relates to a small -size self -propelled pot seedling transplanting machine. BACKGROUND

[0002] China is the world's agricultural production power, and also the world's most populous country, so solving people's diet has been the primary problem. With the increasingly perfect pot seedling technology, the dry land vegetable pot seedling planting technology, taking the pepper, small green vegetable as the first, has been widely applied at home and abroad. With the rapid and steady development of China's vegetable planting industry, the vegetable planting mode is also constantly optimized, and the seedling technology, planting technology is constantly developed and promoted. Among them, the role of dry land vegetable pot seedling and its transplanting planting mode is most prominent. Because the planting mode of pot seedling transplanting is not affected by temperature, humidity, illumination and other environmental factors, has wide applicability, is convenient to cultivate and manage, is simple to operate, has high survival rate and the toxicity of its growth crops is extremely low and a variety of advantages, this planting mode has become one of the most important representative modes of modern agricultural planting mode. Peppers, small green vegetables and other vegetables are the most common crops in life, and are mostly planted in southern China. But because the pot seedling itself is relatively fragile, and the planting interval of different vegetables is different, and the terrain of the planting land in the southern region is various, etc. From the use of pot seedling transplanting machinery in China, the research and development and improvement of this type of pot seedling transplanting machinery have great development potential.

[0003] In the prior art, the clamping type transplanting machine is an old model, which is the earliest type developed and put into use. It is divided into disc type and chain clamping type in structure. Although this model is convenient to operate and has low manufacturing cost, manual feeding of seedlings is required during work. Since manual feeding of seedlings is prone to error, the work efficiency is not high, and seedlings are prone to be clamped and fall off the ground. In order to adjust the plant spacing, it is very troublesome to replace gears with different numbers of teeth, and the work efficiency is not high. The seedlings are prone to be damaged. For the flexible disc type transplanting machine, the structure is simple, and the plant spacing is easy to adjust. Its advantage lies in that the seedlings are not clamped, the damage to the seedlings is avoided, and there is no limitation on the number of clamps, and the plant spacing is more convenient to adjust. However, the universality is too poor, the seedlings are not straight after transplanting, and the service life of the flexible rubber disc is generally not long, so it needs to be replaced frequently. For the guide pipe type transplanting machine, no external force is applied to the seedlings during planting, so there is no damage to the seedlings. Due to the existence of the guide pipe, many bare-root seedlings and seedlings with substrate can be used, and the work efficiency is high. However, the disadvantage is obvious, the mechanism is complex, the cost is high, and the guide pipe cannot guarantee the straightness of the seedlings. For the hanging basket type transplanting machine, it is suitable for transplanting seedlings with substrate. Compared with other models, its most prominent advantage is that it can be used for transplanting on the soil covered with mulch. The seedlings will not be clamped during transplanting, and there is no risk of damaging the seedlings. However, the structure of the transplanting machine is complex, the maintenance is difficult, and the planter directly contacts the soil during work, which causes damage to the planter. For the belt type transplanting machine, the advantage is high work efficiency. However, due to the use of mechanical grippers, the reliability is poor, and it can only be used for transplanting seedlings with stable substrate. Moreover, the use of mechanical grippers leads to high manufacturing cost, and further improvement and breakthrough are required to achieve popularization.

[0004] A plug seedling transplanting mechanical hand is disclosed in Chinese Patent No. CN206559828U, which was authorized on October 17, 2017. The plug seedling transplanting mechanical hand comprises a rack, straight linear guides symmetrically distributed above the rack, a workbench provided above the straight linear guides, the workbench being connected with a transmission device, the workbench being connected with a lifting mechanism below, the lifting mechanism being fixedly connected with a mechanical hand at the lower end, a fixed plate being provided at the corresponding position of the rack and the workbench, a chain wheel being provided on the fixed plate, the chain wheel being connected with a seedling guide pipe, and a gap being provided on the fixed plate. Compared with the prior art, the workbench moves back and forth on the straight linear guides by the transmission device to change the position of the mechanical hand in the horizontal direction. After the mechanical hand performs a grabbing action, the lifting mechanism controls the movement of the mechanical hand in the vertical direction, so that the mechanical hand completes the action of grabbing and placing seedlings. Then, the plug seedlings are transported to the designated position by the cooperation of the seedling guide pipe and the chain wheel. The whole working process of the device is controlled and completed by the corresponding PLC controller.

[0005] Most vegetable transplanters have not yet achieved miniaturization and integration, resulting in high R&D and production costs, which is unfavorable to small and medium-sized vegetable production bases in my country. Furthermore, due to the significant challenges in R&D, the quality of transplanting cannot be guaranteed, and the operation is difficult, hindering their widespread adoption in my country's vegetable agriculture.

[0006] In summary, it is necessary to address the issues of high cost and poor environmental adaptability of existing automatic control systems for dryland vegetable seedling transplanters. Based on actual transplanting conditions and combining various existing seedling transplanter models in China, a simple-to-operate, actively adjustable automatic small-scale dryland vegetable seedling transplanter has been designed to meet the needs of rural areas in southern my country, which face diverse planting terrains, small planting areas, and an aging farming population.

After starting work, the vehicle chassis 14 moves forward, and the bulldozing shovel 30 at the front end first shovels away the sundries and excess soil in the soil. Then, the furrowers 29 are inserted into the soil to open seedling trenches of a certain depth in the flattened soil, and fertilizer can be correspondingly scattered.

Then, under the movement of the guide rail, the seedlings are released by the flexible mechanical gripper 24 at the guide pipe section 25 and slide along the inner wall of the pipe under the action of their own gravity.

[0044] When the seedling is transported to the conveying belt, the ball screw 36 rotates to drive the drill bit to reciprocate according to the conveying speed of the seedling on the conveying belt, so as to realize the fixed-pitch seedling pit digging, and the falling seedling falls into the planting pit. When transplanting special seedlings, the drilling time and depth of the drilling mechanism 15 can be adjusted by the control system, the size and depth of the planting pit are changed, and the seedling is planted. Finally, the soil is compacted by the soil compacting wheel, and the water is sprayed by the water injector, and thus the transplanting process is completed.
