The control component on the seedling tray grasping mechanism drives the two side plates to move towards each other, causing the grippers to grip the seedling tray. Then, the up-and-down lifting mechanism is driven to raise the height of the seedling tray grasping mechanism, thereby realizing the grasping of the seedling tray. After the track walking mechanism moves to the pre-positioned position on the ground track, the up-and-down lifting mechanism lowers the seedling tray grasping mechanism to the height of the seedling bed. The control component drives the two side plates to move away from each other, releasing the grippers of the seedling tray grasping mechanism from the seedling tray.

[0047] In use, the seedling tray gripping mechanism 2 is lowered to the gripping height by the lifting mechanism 3. The control component 24 on the seedling tray gripping mechanism 2 drives the two side plates 22 to move towards each other, causing the grippers 25 to grip the seedling tray. Then, the lifting mechanism 3 is driven to raise the height of the seedling tray gripping mechanism 2, thereby realizing the gripping of the seedling tray. After the track walking mechanism 5 moves to the pre-positioned position on the ground track 1, the lifting mechanism 3 lowers the seedling tray gripping mechanism 2 to the height of the seedling bed 4. The control component 24 drives the two side plates 22 to move away from each other, releasing the grippers 25 of the seedling tray gripping mechanism 2 from the seedling tray. The lifting mechanism 3 is then driven back to the designated height, and the track walking mechanism 5 moves to the origin, completing one placement of the seedling tray. This application realizes the automation of seedling tray placement, greatly improving the efficiency of tray placement operations.
[0048] In this embodiment, the control component 24 includes a control motor and a control rod. The control motor is mounted on the top plate 21, and the rotation control end of the control motor is connected to the control rod. The two ends of the control rod are respectively rotatably connected to two sets of side plates 22.

The walking motor 53 is connected to the walking wheels 52 through a transmission component.
[0051] In use, the walking motor 53 drives the walking wheel 52 to rotate, so that the walking wheel 52 moves along the ground track 1, thereby adjusting the position of the gantry 51.
[0052] In this embodiment, a photoelectric encoder is installed on the drive shaft 32 of the walking motor 53. The walking motor 53 and the photoelectric encoder are both electrically connected to the controller. In use, the position is located by the photoelectric encoder.

[0057] In this embodiment, the gripper 25 has a ∧-shaped structure, and the two free ends of the gripper 25 are provided with gripping fingers for gripping the tray.
[0058] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0059] The seedling tray gripping mechanism 2 is lowered to the gripping height by the lifting mechanism 3. The control component 24 on the seedling tray gripping mechanism 2 drives the two side plates 22 to move towards each other, causing the grippers 25 to grip the seedling tray. Then, the lifting mechanism 3 is driven to raise the height of the seedling tray gripping mechanism 2, thereby realizing the gripping of the seedling tray. After the track walking mechanism 5 moves to the pre-positioned position on the ground track 1, the lifting mechanism 3 lowers the seedling tray gripping mechanism 2 to the height of the seedling bed 4. The control component 24 drives the two side plates 22 to move away from each other, releasing the grippers 25 of the seedling tray gripping mechanism 2 from the seedling tray. The lifting mechanism 3 is driven back to the designated height, and the track walking mechanism 5 moves to the origin, completing one placement of the seedling tray. This application realizes the automation of seedling tray placement, greatly improving the efficiency of tray placement.
