Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seedling technology, and in particular to a seedling transplanting device. Background Technology
[0002] In agricultural production, to increase seedling survival rates, seedlings are typically cultivated first. Seedlings propagated by sowing or vegetative propagation methods have high density, with each seedling occupying little space for nutrients. Transplanting only after they reach the required standard size further increases the survival rate. Plug seedling cultivation is a fundamental revolution in modern horticulture, ensuring rapid and large-scale production.
[0003] Once the seedlings in the seedling trays have grown to a suitable size for transplanting, they need to be removed from the trays along with the soil. Currently, this removal of seedlings and soil is done manually, but this method, which can only remove one seedling at a time, is too inefficient. While some transplanting devices can remove multiple seedlings at once, their complex structures and high initial manufacturing difficulty increase production and operating costs, thus requiring further improvement. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a seedling transplanting device.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a seedling transplanting device, comprising a tray body, wherein a plurality of seedling troughs are provided in the middle of the tray body and the seedling troughs are vertically connected, a bottom plate is attached to the lower surface of the tray body, handles are fixed on both sides of the tray body, side plates are fixed on both sides of the bottom end of the tray body, a through hole is provided in the middle of the side plate, two snap-fit components are fixed on both sides of the upper surface of the bottom plate, and the bottom plate is fixedly connected to the side plate through the snap-fit components, and a pressing component is provided on the top of the tray body.
[0006] Furthermore, several drainage holes are provided in the middle of the tray and at the bottom of each seedling trough.
[0007] Furthermore, support plates are fixed on both sides of the lower surface of the base plate.
[0008] Furthermore, the snap-fit assembly includes a plug fixed to the upper surface of the base plate. The top of the plug passes through a through hole and has a movable groove on its side wall. A second spring is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the movable groove. A snap-fit tooth is fixedly connected to the other end of the second spring. The lower surface of the snap-fit tooth snaps into the upper surface of the side plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the top of the locking tooth at the end away from the second spring is designed with a slope.
[0010] Furthermore, grooves are provided at the bottom ends of both sides of the disc body, and a first spring is fixedly connected to the top wall of the groove.
[0011] Furthermore, the extrusion assembly includes a top plate located above the disc body. The lower surface of the top plate is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the disc body on both sides with a third spring. A notch is opened in the middle of the top plate above each seedling trough. Vertical rods are fixed on the lower surface of the top plate on both sides of each notch. An annular plate is fixedly connected to the bottom ends of the two vertical rods. The annular plate is located at the top inside the seedling trough.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] 1. In use, this utility model provides a seedling transplanting device consisting of a tray, a base plate, a seedling trough, a handle, and a snap-fit assembly. Seedlings are planted inside the seedling trough, and the base plate is fixed to the bottom of the tray via the snap-fit assembly. When transplanting is required, the base plate can be quickly removed from the bottom of the tray, allowing the soil and seedlings to fall directly from the bottom of the seedling trough, thus removing all seedlings at once and improving transplanting efficiency. Furthermore, the device has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture, and helps reduce costs.
[0014] 2. When using this utility model, the seedling transplanting device is equipped with a squeezing component. After the bottom plate is removed from the bottom of the tray, the soil in the seedling trough can be pushed downward by the squeezing component, which further improves the separation efficiency of the soil from the seedling trough.

Detailed Implementation
[0021] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a seedling transplanting device is disclosed, comprising a tray 1, with a plurality of seedling troughs 3 provided in the middle of the tray 1, the seedling troughs 3 being vertically connected, a base plate 2 attached to the lower surface of the tray 1, handles 4 fixed on both sides of the tray 1, side plates 5 fixed on both sides of the bottom end of the tray 1, a through hole 51 provided in the middle of the side plate 5, two snap-fit components 6 fixed on both sides of the upper surface of the base plate 2, and the base plate 2 being fixedly connected to the side plates 5 through the snap-fit components 6, and a pressing component 8 provided on the top of the tray 1.
[0023] Several drainage holes 21 are provided in the middle of the tray 1 and at the bottom of each seedling trough 3.
[0024] The drainage hole 21 facilitates the drainage of excess water or nutrient solution from the seedling tray 3, preventing root rot.
[0025] Support plates 7 are fixed on both sides of the lower surface of the base plate 2.
[0026] The support plate 7 supports the base plate 2, making it easier to drain water or nutrient solution.
[0027] The snap-fit assembly 6 includes a plug 61 fixed to the upper surface of the base plate 2. The top of the plug 61 passes through the through hole 51 and the side wall is provided with a movable groove 62. A second spring 63 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the movable groove 62. A snap tooth 64 is fixedly connected to the other end of the second spring 63. The lower surface of the snap tooth 64 snaps into the upper surface of the side plate 5.
[0028] When the base plate 2 is fixed by the snap-fit assembly 6, the insert 61 can pass through the through hole 51. When the side plate 5 is in contact with the base plate 2, the snap-fit teeth 64 are ejected from the movable groove 62 by the second spring 63. At this time, the snap-fit teeth 64 are locked on the upper surface of the side plate 5, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the side plate 5 and the base plate 2. When it is necessary to disassemble the base plate 2, the snap-fit teeth 64 on both sides are squeezed at the same time, causing the snap-fit teeth 64 to retract into the movable groove 62. Then, the insert 61 is pulled out from the through hole 51, thus separating the base plate 2 from the side plate 5.
[0029] The top of the tooth 64, which is away from the second spring 63, is designed with a slope.
[0030] By designing the locking teeth 64 as bevels, when the insert block 61 passes through the through hole 51, the beveled locking teeth 64 are more easily squeezed back into the movable groove 62. After the locking teeth 64 have completely passed through the through hole 51, the locking teeth 64 are then ejected by the second spring 63.
[0031] The bottom of both sides of the disc body 1 is provided with grooves 101, and the top wall of the groove 101 is fixedly connected with a first spring 102.
[0032] When the retaining tooth 64 retracts into the movable groove 62, the insert 61 can be separated from the through hole 51. At this time, the first spring 102 will squeeze the base plate 2, causing the base plate 2 to separate better from the disc body 1.
[0033] The extrusion assembly 8 includes a top plate 81 located above the disc body 1. The lower surface of the top plate 81 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the disc body 1 on both sides with a third spring 82. A notch 83 is opened in the middle of the top plate 81 and above each seedling trough 3. Vertical rods 84 are fixed on the lower surface of the top plate 81 and on both sides of each notch 83. The bottom ends of the two vertical rods 84 are fixedly connected to an annular plate 85, which is located at the top inside the seedling trough 3.
[0034] After the bottom plate 2 is removed from the bottom of the tray 1, the top plate 81 can be pressed down, thereby driving the annular plate 85 inside each seedling trough 3 to descend through the corresponding vertical rod 84. The annular plate 85 is used to push the soil inside the seedling trough 3 downward, so that the soil can be separated from the seedling trough 3, thereby improving the transplanting efficiency.
[0035] Working principle: During planting, soil is added to each seedling trough 3 to cultivate seedlings in each trough 3. After cultivation, the handle 4 is used to squeeze the teeth 64 on both sides to retract into the movable groove 62. At this time, under the pressure of the first spring 102, the bottom plate 2 separates from the bottom of the plate 1, thereby disassembling the bottom plate 2. Then, the top plate 81 is pressed with the fingers, and the annular plate 85 is squeezed by the vertical rod 84 on the lower surface of the top plate 81. The annular plate 85 then pushes the soil inside the seedling trough 3 downward, so that the soil and seedlings slide down from the bottom of the seedling trough 3 as a whole, thereby improving the transplanting efficiency.
