[0023] 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.
[0024] Please see Figures 1-10This utility model provides a technical solution: an intelligent three-dimensional planting machine, including a planting machine body 1, a three-dimensional frame 2 on the planting machine body 1, and symmetrically arranged side frame vertical rods 201, side frame horizontal rods 202, and side frame diagonal rods 203 on both sides of the three-dimensional frame 2 to form a rectangular planar frame, and an X-shaped stabilizing frame 205 in the middle of the three-dimensional frame 2, with first long horizontal rods 204 fixed to the side frame horizontal rods 202 respectively connected to the upper and lower ends of the X-shaped stabilizing frame 205. A second long horizontal rod 206 fixed to the side frame vertical rods 201 is symmetrically arranged below the three-dimensional frame 2, and a water-holding tray 4 is placed above the second long horizontal rod 206. The planting machine body 1 also has a lifting transmission mechanism 5, and the lifting transmission mechanism 5 has symmetrically distributed chain guide rails 502. A second transmission chain 505 is provided on the inner side of the guide rail 502. First transmission sprockets 501 are evenly distributed on the inner ring of the second transmission chain 505. Positioning rods 503 are evenly fixed on the second transmission chain 505 at intervals. Planting components 3 corresponding to the positions of the positioning rods 503 are also provided between the second transmission chains 505. An irrigation mechanism 6 is provided on one side of the planting machine body 1. A speed controller 8 and a soil testing instrument control mechanism 7 are installed on the side of the planting machine body 1. A water pump 601 is bolted to the side frame vertical rod 201 on the irrigation mechanism 6. A spray irrigation pipe 602 is connected to the outlet of the water pump 601. The spray irrigation pipe 602 is fixed to the first long horizontal bar 204 below the X-shaped stabilizing frame 205 by clamps. This structure adopts... The insertion-type multi-functional soil analyzer, used in conjunction with the soil analyzer control mechanism 7, is inserted into the soil to collect daily data on parameters related to vegetable growth, such as soil fertility, soil moisture, soil pH, soil temperature, ambient light, and ambient humidity. It can also connect to an IoT system for real-time control and management of these parameters. The speed controller 8 is electrically connected to the geared motor 9 and the water pump 601 for cycle lifting, starting / stop control, and irrigation control. The water pump 601 controls the irrigation volume of the sprinkler irrigation pipe 602, which can also be adjusted for spraying and irrigation. The irrigation mechanism 6, used with a water storage tank and employing drinking water-grade PVC pipes, enables automated irrigation. To ensure the irrigation water is sterile and clean, the main body 1 of the planting machine uses organic soil for planting. Before each planting, the soil fertility and pH value are adjusted according to the needs of different vegetable varieties, and disinfection, pest control, and weeding are carried out. No additional fertilizer is used or added during each crop, ensuring the quality and safety of the vegetables. A reduction motor 9 is also located on the side of the main body 1, and the reduction motor 9 and the speed controller 8 are on the same side. The output shaft of the reduction motor 9 is fixedly connected to a second transmission sprocket 506, and a first transmission chain 504 meshes between the second transmission sprocket 506 and the first transmission sprocket 501 directly above it. This structure drives the second transmission sprocket 506 to rotate through the reduction motor 9, which in turn drives the first transmission chain 504.The first transmission chain 504 drives the first transmission sprocket 501 to rotate, which in turn drives the second transmission chain 505. This allows the second transmission chain 505 to drive the planting component 3 to cyclically rise and fall via the positioning rod 503. The planting component 3 has chain hangers 301 at both ends, and each chain hanger 301 has a through-hole 303 for movably engaging with the positioning rod 503. The three-dimensional frame 2 also has symmetrically arranged mounting rods 207 on both sides, and these mounting rods 207 are connected to their respective upper sides via screws. The side frame crossbars 202 are connected by screws. The first transmission sprocket 501 is rotatably connected to the uppermost side frame crossbar 202 and the mounting rod 207. This structure allows for height adjustment of the mounting rod 207 via the second transmission chain 505, enabling tension adjustment of the second transmission chain 505. Horizontal tray support rods 302 are symmetrically engaged between the chain hangers 301, and planting trays 304 are engaged between the horizontal tray support rods 302. The chain hangers 301 have a semi-circular frame structure and are connected through the chain. Hole 303 is located in the middle of the arc-shaped section of chain hanger 301. This structure, through the semi-circular frame design of chain hanger 301, ensures that the center of gravity of chain hanger 301 is positioned lower. When chain hanger 301 is raised or lowered via the second transmission chain 505, chain hanger 301 can rotate relative to the positioning rod 503, ensuring that planting tray 304 remains horizontal. Planting components 3 are located on both sides of the X-shaped stabilizing frame 205, and the width of water tray 4 is greater than twice the width of planting components 3, and the length of water tray 4 is also greater. Regarding the length of the planting component 3, this structure reinforces the three-dimensional frame 2 with an X-shaped stabilizing frame 205. The water tray 4 can catch excess irrigation water, and the planting tray 304 can be moved to the water tray 4 during the cyclic lifting and lowering process, enabling rapid cooling of the soil in hot summer climates. The main body 1 of the planting machine is made of lightweight steel frame, possessing sufficient strength while remaining lightweight. The planting component 3 is easy to assemble and disassemble. By controlling the number of planting components 3, the planting density can be controlled, allowing for flexible adjustments based on the type of vegetable.
[0025] Working Principle: When using this intelligent three-dimensional planting machine, the main body 1 of the planting machine first forms a positioning frame structure through the three-dimensional frame 2. The two sides of the three-dimensional frame 2 are formed by side frame vertical rods 201, side frame horizontal rods 202, and side frame diagonal rods 203 to form a rectangular planar frame structure. The X-shaped stabilizing frame 205 is fixed between the side frame horizontal rods 202 by bolts through the first long horizontal rod 204. The bottom of the side frame vertical rods 201 is symmetrically fixed with second long horizontal rods 206 for structural stability and to place the water tray 4. The mounting rod 207 is connected to one of the sets of side frames by screws. The crossbar 202 is adjustable and fixed. By fixing the first transmission sprocket 501 to the inner side of the mounting rod 207 and the uppermost side crossbar 202, the second transmission chain 505 can be easily installed. The chain guide rail 502 provides guidance, limiting, and protection for the second transmission chain 505. The fixing component of the geared motor 9 is fixed to the lowermost side crossbar 202 with bolts. The first transmission chain 504 links the second transmission sprocket 506 with the first transmission sprocket 501, enabling the geared motor 9 to drive the second transmission chain 506. The drive chain 505 is electrically connected to the geared motor 9 and the speed controller 8 for speed control and start / stop control of the cyclic lifting. Lighting equipment and sprinkler irrigation pipes 602 are installed at the bottom of the first long crossbar 204 above and below the X-shaped stabilizing frame 205, respectively. The irrigation mechanism 6 controls irrigation via a water pump 601. The soil testing instrument control mechanism 7 works with an insert-type multi-functional soil testing instrument for soil monitoring. When the planting component 3 is installed between the second drive chain 505, the chain hanger 301 connects to the second drive chain 505 via the through connection hole 303. The positioning rod 503 is inserted, and the horizontal tray support rod 302 is locked between the chain hangers 301. Then, the planting tray 304 is locked between the horizontal tray support rods 302. When the main body 1 of the planting machine is used, the lifting transmission mechanism 5 transmits the second transmission chain 505 through the reduction motor 9, so that the second transmission chain 505 drives the positioning rod 503 to rise and fall in a cycle, thereby realizing the cyclic lifting and falling of the planting component 3. This ensures that the light, irrigation and temperature are balanced and controllable during the vegetable planting process, and facilitates planting and harvesting by the growers, thus completing a series of tasks.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
