[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seedling transplanting technology, and in particular to a seedling transplanting root-fixing device. Background Technology

[0002] Seedling transplanting is the process of moving young plant seedlings from the nursery to the planting field to promote better growth. During this process, it is necessary to ensure that the above-ground parts of the seedlings are not damaged by external impacts, and to remove the underground parts of the seedlings as much as possible while maintaining the integrity of their roots.

[0003] The existing method of transplanting seedlings is to directly dig out the roots of the seedlings and the soil around them with a shovel. However, digging out the roots of seedlings directly with a shovel can easily damage the roots and is time-consuming and laborious. Utility Model Content

[0028] To fully understand the purpose, features and effects of this utility model, the following specific embodiments will be used to describe this utility model in detail, but this utility model is not limited thereto.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the present invention provides a seedling transplanting and root-fixing device, including a protective bucket 1, a connecting frame 2, a soil-shoveling mechanism 3, and a driving mechanism 4. The protective bucket 1 is a bucket-shaped structure with openings at the top and bottom, used to hold the above-ground parts of the seedlings to be transplanted.

[0030] Multiple shoveling mechanisms 3 are rotatably mounted at equal intervals on the side wall of the protective bucket 1, used to excavate the underground part of the seedlings to be transplanted. Specifically, the shoveling mechanism 3 includes a connecting arm 31 and a shovel 32. The connecting arm 31 includes a first arm 311, a first turning part 312, a second arm 313, a second turning part 314, and a third arm 315 integrally formed from top to bottom. The first arm 311, the second arm 313, and the third arm 315 are all inclined. Specifically, the top end of the first arm 311 is away from the axis of the protective bucket 1, and the bottom end of the first arm 311 is close to the axis of the protective bucket 1. The first turning part 312 is rotatably connected to the protective bucket 1. The top end of the second arm 313 is close to the axis of the protective bucket 1, and the bottom end of the second arm 313 is away from the axis of the protective bucket 1. The top end of the third arm 315 is away from the axis of the protective bucket 1, and the bottom end of the third arm 315 is close to the axis of the protective bucket 1. The bottom end of the shovel 32 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the third arm 315. The shovel 32 is also set at an angle, and the bottom end of the shovel 32 is closer to the axis of the protective barrel 1.

[0031] The connecting frame 2 is fixedly installed above the protective bucket 1. In this embodiment, the connecting frame 2 includes a support plate 21 and support rods 22. Multiple support rods 22 are fixedly installed at equal intervals on the bottom surface of the support plate 21, and the bottom of the support rods 22 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the protective bucket 1. In use, the connecting frame 2 can also serve to hold and protect the above-ground parts of the seedlings.

[0032] The drive mechanism 4 is mounted on the connecting frame 2 and is connected to the shoveling mechanism 3 for driving the shoveling mechanism 3. The drive mechanism 4 includes a vertical rod 41, a connecting plate 42, a limiting plate 43, a connecting rod 44, and a spring 45. The vertical rod 41 is slidably inserted into the middle of the top surface (i.e., the support plate 21) of the connecting frame 2, and the bottom end of the vertical rod 41 extends into the interior of the connecting frame 2. The limiting plate 43 is fixed at the bottom of the vertical rod 41 and abuts against the support plate 21 of the connecting frame 2. The connecting plate 42 is fixed at the top of the vertical rod 41. The number of connecting rods 44 is the same as the number of shoveling mechanisms 3, and each connecting rod 44 drives one shoveling mechanism 3. Specifically, the top end of the connecting rod 44 is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 42, and the top end of the connecting rod 44 is close to the axis of the protective barrel 1. The bottom end of the connecting rod 44 is rotatably connected to the top end of the first arm 311, and the bottom end of the connecting rod 44 is away from the axis of the protective barrel 1. Spring 45 is sleeved on the outside of vertical rod 41, and its two ends abut against connecting plate 42 and connecting frame 2 respectively. Preferably, spring 45 is a compression spring.

[0033] In use, first wet the soil where the seedlings are planted. Then, hold the protective bucket 1, ensuring the above-ground part of the seedling is within the protective bucket 1 and the connecting frame 2. Continue pressing down on the protective bucket 1 to insert the shovel 32 into the soil, positioning it appropriately. The depth of the shovel 32 in the soil needs to be judged by the operator based on experience. When the shovel 32 is inserted to the appropriate depth, the operator holds the protective bucket 1 with one hand and presses down on the connecting plate 42 with the other. The connecting plate 42 drives the connecting rod 44 to rotate. During this process, the bottom end of the connecting rod 44 moves further away from the axis of the protective bucket 1. The connecting rod 44 drives the first arm 311 to rotate, and the top of the first arm 311 also moves further away from the axis of the protective bucket 1. The first arm 311 drives the second arm 313 to rotate, and the second arm 313 drives the third arm 315 to rotate, bringing the bottom of the third arm 315 closer to the axis of the protective bucket 1. This brings the bottom ends of each shovel 32 closer together, thereby separating the soil around the seedling roots from the rest of the soil in the seedbed. Finally, while keeping the connecting plate 42 pressed down, pull the protective bucket 1 upwards, and the seedling will be pulled out along with the shovel 32. Move the seedling above the container used to store the seedling, release the connecting plate 42, and under the action of the spring 45, the connecting plate 42 returns to its original position, the bottom ends of the shovel 32 move away from each other, and the seedling will fall off the shovel 32, thus completing the seedling removal process.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above-listed embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention. Of course, those skilled in the art can make modifications and variations to the present invention. If such modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, they should be considered as being within the protection scope of the present invention.
