Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of planting device technology, specifically a seedling transplanting and planting device. Background Technology
[0002] A seedling transplanter is a horticultural or agricultural tool specifically designed for the efficient, convenient, and standardized transplanting of small seedlings or saplings. Its core purpose is to simplify and optimize the process of transplanting seedlings from nurseries, cultivation containers, or temporary locations to their final planting locations (such as fields, orchards, and gardens), ensuring transplanting quality and improving seedling survival rates.
[0003] In existing technology, a duckbill transplanter is used when transplanting small saplings. The duckbill transplanter includes a duckbill head that rotates with each other, a foot pedal fixed to the outer surface of the duckbill head, and a support rod installed on the duckbill. By rotating the duckbill to separate it and releasing the closed state, stepping on the foot pedal inserts the duckbill into the soil. By applying force with both hands, the support rod is controlled to close the duckbill, allowing the sapling along with the soil at its base to be removed for transplanting. However, in actual use, because the two rotating plates between the duckbill heads rotate naturally, the duckbill is prone to shaking and rotating during transport. This repeated rotation can easily cause them to bump against each other, generating significant noise and making the transplanter inconvenient to carry. Therefore, an improved sapling transplanter is needed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a seedling transplanter to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a seedling transplanter, comprising a duckbill shovel, a rotating connecting piece fixedly installed on the inner side of the duckbill shovel, a support rod fixedly installed on the inner wall of the duckbill shovel, a foot pedal fixedly installed on the left side of the duckbill shovel, and a folding and fixing mechanism provided at the top of the support rod.
[0006] Preferably, there are two sets of rotating connecting pieces, and each set has two rotating connecting pieces, and the two rotating connecting pieces rotate relative to each other around the intersection center point.
[0007] Preferably, the folding and fixing mechanism includes a rotation limiting seat, which is fixedly installed on the top of the support rod. A rotation connecting block is rotatably installed inside the rotation limiting seat. Two rotation connecting blocks are provided. A smooth handle rod is fixedly installed on the right side of the left rotation connecting block, and a threaded handle rod is fixedly installed on the left side of the right rotation connecting block. A semi-threaded sleeve is installed on the external thread of the threaded handle rod. An angle limiting pad is fixedly installed on the outside of the rotation limiting seat. A hand-tightening bolt slides through the inside of the angle limiting pad, and a hand-tightening nut is installed on the external thread of the hand-tightening bolt.
[0008] Preferably, a hole is provided at the corresponding position of the rotating connecting block and the hand-tightening bolt, and the hand-tightening bolt slides through the hole provided inside the rotating connecting block.
[0009] Preferably, the diameter of the smooth handle rod corresponds to the diameter of the hole inside the semi-threaded sleeve, and the smooth handle rod is movably installed inside the hole inside the semi-threaded sleeve.
[0010] Preferably, there are two sets of the rotation limiting seat, rotation connecting block and angle limiting pad, and the two sets of the rotation limiting seat, rotation connecting block and angle limiting pad are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the center line.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a seedling transplanting and planting device, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] 1. This seedling transplanter features a folding and fixing mechanism. During use, rotating the connecting plate closes the two duckbill shovels and flips the smooth and threaded handle rods to engage with the support rod, forming a triangular shape. A semi-threaded sleeve is fitted over the smooth handle rod to restrict the triangular structure and prevent rotation. The integrated duckbill shovels prevent noise caused by natural rotation. The flipped smooth and threaded handle rods also form a handle for easy carrying, improving the convenience of transporting the seedling transplanter.
[0013] 2. This seedling transplanter, through the outward-turning smooth handle rod and the threaded handle rod, with the help of the angle limiting pad, and the connection and fastening of the hand-tightening bolt and the hand-tightening nut, can be combined to form an outward-turning handle to assist in the transplanting of seedlings.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.
[0022] Example:
[0023] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a seedling transplanter, including a duckbill shovel 1, a rotating connecting piece 3 fixedly installed on the inner side of the duckbill shovel 1, a support rod 4 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the duckbill shovel 1, a foot pedal 5 fixedly installed on the left side of the left duckbill shovel 1, and a folding fixing mechanism 2 provided on the top of the support rod 4.
[0024] Furthermore, there are two sets of rotating connecting plates 3, and each set has two rotating connecting plates 3. The two rotating connecting plates 3 rotate relative to each other around the intersection center point. Through the rotating connecting plates 3 that rotate relative to each other, the duckbill shovels 1 on the left and right sides can be connected, so that the two duckbill shovels 1 can rotate around the intersection center point of the rotating connecting plates 3, thereby realizing the transplanting of small seedlings.
[0025] Furthermore, the folding and fixing mechanism 2 includes a rotation limit seat 21, which is fixedly installed on the top of the support rod 4. A rotation connecting block 22 is rotatably installed inside the rotation limit seat 21. There are two rotation connecting blocks 22. A smooth handle rod 23 is fixedly installed on the right side of the left rotation connecting block 22, and a threaded handle rod 24 is fixedly installed on the left side of the right rotation connecting block 22. A semi-threaded sleeve 25 is installed on the external thread of the threaded handle rod 24. An angle limiting pad 26 is fixedly installed on the outside of the rotation limit seat 21. A hand-tightening bolt 27 slides through the inside of the angle limiting pad 26. A hand-tightening nut 28 is installed on the external thread of the hand-tightening bolt 27. With the folding and fixing mechanism 2, when carrying the transplanter, the two duckbill shovels 1 can be combined together, and the smooth handle rod 23 and the threaded handle rod 24 can be connected to form a handle. This avoids the noise caused by the rotation collision and makes it easy to carry.
[0026] Furthermore, holes are provided at the corresponding positions of the rotating connecting block 22 and the hand-tightening bolt 27, and the hand-tightening bolt 27 slides through the hole provided inside the rotating connecting block 22. By utilizing the hole provided inside the rotating connecting block 22, the hand-tightening bolt 27 can pass through the rotating connecting block 22 and the angle limiting pad 26, thereby enabling the handle to be flipped outward to assist in the transplanting of small saplings.
[0027] Furthermore, the diameter of the smooth handle rod 23 corresponds to the inner diameter of the semi-threaded sleeve 25, and the smooth handle rod 23 is movably installed inside the inner hole of the semi-threaded sleeve 25. By using the semi-threaded sleeve 25 that is movable outside the smooth handle rod 23, the semi-threaded sleeve 25 can be sleeved on the outside of the smooth handle rod 23, thereby controlling the rotation of the smooth handle rod 23 and the threaded handle rod 24, while restricting the rotation between the left and right duckbill shovels 1.
[0028] Furthermore, two sets of rotating limit seats 21, rotating connecting blocks 22 and angle limiting pads 26 are provided, and the two sets of rotating limit seats 21, rotating connecting blocks 22 and angle limiting pads 26 are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the center line. Through the symmetrical design, the smooth handle rods 23 and threaded handle rods 24 on both sides can be controlled to turn outward, thereby forming symmetrical outward handles to assist in the transplanting of small saplings.
[0029] In actual operation, when using this device and carrying the planter, first flip the smooth handle rod 23 and the threaded handle rod 24 so that their close ends are on the same axis. Then rotate the semi-threaded sleeve 25 so that the semi-threaded sleeve 25 begins to move closer to the smooth handle rod 23 and gradually fits over the outside of the smooth handle rod 23. At this time, the two duckbill shovels 1 are in contact with each other, and the rotating limit seat 21 and the rotating connecting block 22 will not rotate. The planter can be carried by hand by lifting the smooth handle rod 23, the threaded handle rod 24, or the semi-threaded sleeve 25.
[0030] When transplanting small saplings using the transplanter, first move the semi-threaded sleeve 25 away from the smooth handle rod 23, and flip the smooth handle rod 23 and the threaded handle rod 24 to the outside of the support rod 4. With the angle limiting pad 26 in place, remove the hand-tightening bolt 27 and the hand-tightening nut 28, so that the hand-tightening bolt 27 passes through the rotating connecting block 22 and the angle limiting pad 26, and use the hand-tightening nut 28 to tighten the rotating connecting block 22 and the angle limiting pad 26 so that they fit tightly. Then the smooth handle rod 23 and the threaded handle rod 24 can be used as auxiliary handles for transplanting.
[0031] During transplanting, control the smooth handle rod 23 and the threaded handle rod 24 to bring them closer together. At this time, the two shovels 1 expand outward by rotating the connecting piece 3, so that the bottom of the shovel 1 is in contact with the ground. Step on the foot pedal 5 to insert the shovel 1 into the soil, and pull the support rods 4 on both sides outward to close the two shovels 1. This allows you to remove the roots of the small sapling and the soil around them. Place the closed shovel 1 against the ground for transplanting, and step on the foot pedal 5 to insert it directly into the soil. Push the smooth handle rod 23 and the threaded handle rod 24 inward to expand the shovel 1 again, and you can transplant the small sapling to the designated location.
