Detailed Implementation
[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0031] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the amaryllis seeder 100 of this utility model embodiment includes a body 1, a digging component 2, a seeding component 3, and a soil covering component 4.
[0032] The digging assembly 2 includes a plurality of digging plowshares 21 arranged at intervals along the width direction of the body 1, and each digging plowshare 21 includes a digging tip 211.
[0033] The seeding component 3 is used to release seed bulbs.
[0034] The soil covering assembly 4 includes a plurality of soil covering plow heads 41 arranged at intervals along the width direction of the machine body 1, and each soil covering plow head 41 includes a soil covering tip 42.
[0035] The excavation component 2, the seeding component 3, and the soil covering component 4 are arranged sequentially along the length of the machine body 1.
[0036] The digging plow 21 and the covering plow 41 are staggered in the width direction of the machine body 1. The digging tip 211 is inclined towards the ground, and the extension direction of the digging tip 211 is at an angle of 15 degrees to 30 degrees with the ground. The covering tip 42 is parallel to the ground.
[0037] For example, for ease of description, the left-right direction is used as the width direction of the body 1, the front-back direction as the length direction of the body 1, and the up-down direction as the height direction of the body 1. The left-right, front-back, and up-down directions are as follows: Figure 1 As shown.
[0038] The machine body 1 is arranged from front to back with a digging component 2, a seeding component 3 and a soil covering component 4. The digging component 2 includes multiple digging plows 21 arranged at intervals in the left and right direction. For example, there are 3 to 10 digging plows 21.
[0039] Each digging plow 21 is equipped with a digging tip 211, which is inclined toward the ground and extends at an angle of 15 to 30 degrees with the ground to ensure that the soil can be effectively dug to form a suitable planting hole.
[0040] The seeding component 3 is used to place amaryllis bulbs into the pits dug by the digging component 2, ensuring the consistency and accuracy of the bulb placement, which is conducive to the healthy growth of the bulbs.
[0041] The soil covering component 4 also has multiple soil covering plows 41 arranged at intervals in the left and right direction. Each of these soil covering plows 41 has a soil covering tip 42 set parallel to the ground. This design can effectively backfill the excavated soil around the bulb, ensuring that the soil covering thickness is uniform.
[0042] The digging plows 21 and covering plows 41 are arranged alternately in the left-right direction. That is, in the left-right direction, the digging plows 21 and covering plows 41 are arranged alternately. In other words, most of the covering plows 41 are placed between two adjacent digging plows 21. Thus, the soil excavated by each digging plow 21 can be processed by the adjacent, staggered covering plows 41. The covering plows 41 push the soil on both sides of the digging plow 21 into the pit dug by the digging plow 21, thereby burying the bulbs.
[0043] In related technologies, artificial cultivation of amaryllis requires digging pits, filling in bulbs, and covering them with soil. This process is labor-intensive and time-consuming. Furthermore, artificial sowing is prone to problems such as inconsistent planting depth and soil covering thickness, which can affect the growth of the bulbs.
[0044] The amaryllis planter 100 of this embodiment features a digging component 2 that can excavate suitable planting holes, improving digging efficiency and ensuring hole consistency. The seeding component 3 places the bulbs into the holes prepared by the digging component 2, thus avoiding the problem of inaccurate bulb placement that may occur during manual sowing and providing ideal starting conditions for bulb growth. The soil covering component 4 backfills soil around the bulbs, promoting good rooting and germination.
[0045] Therefore, the amaryllis planter 100 of this utility model improves the automation level and work efficiency in the amaryllis planting process, reduces the labor intensity of operators, and ensures work consistency and quality.
[0046] In some embodiments, the seeding component 3 includes a plurality of seeding buckets 31, which are arranged sequentially at intervals along the width direction of the machine body 1. The diameter of the seeding buckets 31 is D, and the diameter of the seed bulbs is d, wherein 1cm≤Dd≤3cm.
[0047] For example, Dd is 1cm, 2cm or 3cm, etc.
[0048] The difference between the diameter of the seeding bucket 31 and the diameter of the bulb meets the requirement of 1cm ≤ Dd ≤ 3cm. This design ensures that the size of the seeding bucket 31 is neither too large nor too small, thus avoiding problems such as the bulb getting stuck or damaged during placement due to an excessively small diameter, and also preventing the bulb from rolling inside the bucket due to an excessively large diameter, which would affect the accuracy of its landing direction and position. By controlling the diameter of the seeding bucket 31, the bulb can be guaranteed to maintain a stable state during placement and fall into the pit dug by the digging component 2 in the best posture, thereby improving the consistency and accuracy of planting, laying a solid foundation for the healthy growth of amaryllis bulbs, and further improving the reliability and efficiency of the entire amaryllis planter 100.
[0049] In some embodiments, the seeding bucket 31 includes a first seeding bucket 31 and a second seeding bucket 31, wherein the diameter of the first seeding bucket 31 is larger than that of the second seeding bucket 31.
[0050] By providing two different diameter seed containers 31, the amaryllis seeder 100 can select the appropriate size seed container 31 for larger or smaller bulbs, ensuring that bulbs of all sizes remain stable during placement and avoiding problems such as jamming, rolling, or positional deviation caused by size mismatch between the bulb and the seed container 31. This not only improves the applicability and compatibility of the amaryllis seeder 100 but also further optimizes the accuracy of bulb placement, ensuring that both large and small bulbs fall into the pit dug by the digging component 2 with optimal posture.
[0051] In some embodiments, the seeding bucket 31 is vertically mounted on the machine body 1 along the height direction of the machine body 1.
[0052] The amaryllis planter 100 of this utility model allows for precise control of the planting depth of amaryllis bulbs by adjusting the height of the seed container 31 in the machine body 1, ensuring that the bulbs are accurately placed at the optimal growth depth. This height-adjustable design is particularly suitable for handling specific planting depth requirements when dealing with different soil conditions or bulbs of different sizes, ensuring both planting consistency and accuracy, and also improving the rooting rate and survival rate of the bulbs.
[0053] For example, the seed-feeding bucket 31 has a protrusion on its outer periphery and multiple grooves on its body 1. The protrusion is inserted into different grooves to adjust the height of the seed-feeding bucket 31.
[0054] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the machine body 1 includes a crossbeam 13, and the digging assembly 2 includes a connecting rod 22. The bottom of the connecting rod 22 is fixedly connected to the digging head tip 211, and the connecting rod 22 is fixedly connected to the crossbeam 13.
[0055] The bottom of the connecting rod 22 is fixedly connected to the excavator tip 211, for example, by welding. The top of the connecting rod 22 is fixedly connected to the crossbeam 13 on the machine body 1, for example, by welding or bolting.
[0056] In this embodiment of the amaryllis seeder 100, the connecting rod 22, as a key component for transmitting force, is directly connected at its bottom to the digging head tip 211, allowing the digging force to act on the soil and effectively complete the digging task. Simultaneously, by firmly fixing the connecting rod 22 to the crossbeam 13, not only is the structural stability of the entire digging assembly 2 enhanced, but the vibrations and stresses generated during digging are also dispersed to a certain extent, preventing the equipment from loosening or being damaged due to long-term use.
[0057] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4As shown, the body 1 includes a tail section 12, the tail section 12 includes a shelf 121, and the shelf 121 includes a plurality of storage cavities arranged sequentially at intervals along the height direction of the body 1.
[0058] Multiple storage compartments are arranged sequentially and spaced apart in a vertical direction. This multi-layered structure effectively utilizes the space at the tail end 12, providing a categorized storage function for various materials or tools required during the planting process. For example, in actual operation, amaryllis bulbs of different sizes can be placed in different storage compartments, making it easy for operators to quickly retrieve them as needed, avoiding damage or inefficiency that may result from haphazardly stacked bulbs.
[0059] In some embodiments, the amaryllis planter 100 includes a walking assembly, which includes tracks or wheels.
[0060] For example, the walking components can be either tracked or wheeled to adapt to different terrain conditions and operational needs. Tracked designs provide a larger ground contact area, effectively distributing the equipment's weight and reducing soil pressure, making them particularly suitable for operation on soft or muddy ground, ensuring the stability and maneuverability of the Amaryllis Seeder 100 in complex terrain. Wheeled walking components, on the other hand, offer greater flexibility and mobility, suitable for relatively flat or hard surfaces, enabling rapid movement and turning, and improving operational efficiency.
[0061] In some embodiments, the amaryllis seeder 100 includes a hilling assembly 5, which includes a plurality of paired hilling devices 51, each pair of hilling devices 51 being arranged on both sides of the machine body 1 in the width direction.
[0062] For example, each pair of soil-covering devices 51 is arranged on the left and right sides of the machine body 1, and multiple pairs of soil-covering devices 51 are arranged sequentially along the length of the machine body 1. In this way, the soil on both sides of the planting area can be effectively prepared and backfilled.
[0063] During the operation of the seeder, after the digging plow 21 completes digging the pit, the seeding bucket 31 places the bulbs, and the covering plow 41 initially covers the soil, the paired soil-covering devices 51 will work to push the excess soil on both sides of the planting trench toward the middle, further compacting and leveling the soil around the bulbs, ensuring that the soil coverage is more uniform and dense, so as to provide a more stable growth environment for the amaryllis bulbs.
[0064] In some embodiments, the body 1 includes a head 11, the head 11 including a first baffle 111, the first baffle 111 extending along the width direction of the body 1.
[0065] For example, the first baffle 111 extends in the left and right direction. During the operation of the seeder, the first baffle 111 can effectively block the dust or gravel raised by the digging component 2 when digging the hole, preventing it from splashing, thereby improving the safety and cleanliness of the operation of the amaryllis seeder 100.
[0066] In some embodiments, the head 11 includes two second baffles 112, which extend along the length of the body 1, and the two second baffles 112 are respectively disposed on both sides of the first baffle 111 in the width direction of the body 1.
[0067] For example, during the operation of the seeder, the first baffle 111 is mainly responsible for blocking the dust and gravel raised by the digging component 2, while the two second baffles 112 can effectively prevent soil or debris from splashing out from both sides of the machine body 1, avoiding interference with the surrounding environment or affecting the operation of the equipment.
[0068] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
