Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vegetable planting technology, and in particular to a vegetable planting device. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional vegetable cultivation typically involves one person manually digging holes while another plants the seedlings, or a single person carrying a basket of seedlings while digging and planting. These methods require repeated bending and squatting, resulting in high labor intensity. Existing large-scale planting equipment is unsuitable for small-scale farmland or family gardens. Therefore, a lightweight planting device is needed to replace manual labor for digging holes and planting. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the operator having to bend over and squat repeatedly, resulting in high labor intensity, and to propose a vegetable planting device.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A vegetable planting device, including a frame;
[0006] The inner cylinder is slidably installed inside the frame, with its bottom end extending to the outside of the frame, and is used to guide the seedlings to slide down the inner wall into the planting pit;
[0007] A flat plate is fixedly installed on the front side of the bottom end of the inner cylinder, and its working surface forms a horizontal cutting edge.
[0008] A conical shell is movably positioned on the side of the flat plate, allowing the planting pit to expand and close through horizontal movement;
[0009] The planar plate and the conical shell are inserted into the soil and expand to form a planting pit, and the seedlings slide into the pit through the inner cylinder to complete the planting.
[0010] In one possible design, a sliding hole is provided on the side wall of the frame, and a connecting frame is fixed to the outer wall of the inner cylinder, with the connecting frame extending to the outside of the frame through the sliding hole;
[0011] The top of the connecting frame is equipped with a second handle, and the outer wall of the frame is equipped with a first handle. Both handles have anti-slip textures on their surfaces.
[0012] The outer wall of the frame is fixedly equipped with legs, and the bottom of the legs is equipped with rollers.
[0013] In one possible design, a first limiting rod is fixedly installed on both the side wall of the connecting frame and the outer wall of the inner cylinder. A side frame is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the first limiting rod. A connecting rod is fixedly installed at one end of the side frame, and one end of the connecting rod is fixedly installed with the conical shell.
[0014] A tie rod is fixedly installed on one side of the side frame.
[0015] In one possible design, a compression spring is fitted on the outer wall of the first limiting rod, and the two ends of the compression spring abut against the outer wall of the first limiting rod and the side wall of the side frame respectively through spring seats, driving the conical shell to reset and close.
[0016] In one possible design, a second limiting rod is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the frame, and the connecting frame is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the second limiting rod. A tension spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the second limiting rod, and the two ends of the tension spring are connected to the frame and the connecting frame through hooks, driving the inner cylinder to move upward and reset.
[0017] In one possible design, the lever is located directly below the second handle for single-finger hooking.
[0018] In one possible design, the rollers are arranged in two symmetrical sets, with the travel paths of the two rollers in each set located on both sides of the planting pit.
[0019] In this application, during actual use, the operator holds the No. 1 handle and moves the device by pushing it with the rollers at the bottom. When it reaches the planting point, the operator simply holds the No. 2 handle with the other hand and moves it downwards. The connecting frame and inner cylinder drive the flat plate and conical shell at the bottom to be inserted into the soil. Then, the operator hooks the pull rod with their fingers and pulls it outwards. The pull rod will drive the conical shell to move through the side frame and connecting rod, thereby clearing the soil to form a planting pit. Then, the operator releases the No. 1 handle and takes out the seedling, and puts it into the planting pit from the top of the inner cylinder. The seedling slides down the inner wall of the inner cylinder into the planting pit to complete the planting. Afterwards, the inner cylinder is reset upwards by the tension spring, detaching it from the seedling, while the conical shell is reset by the compression spring, closing it again.
[0020] In this utility model, the vegetable planting device can achieve the operation of breaking the soil and expanding the planting hole through the plane and conical shell, thereby replacing the manual operation of squatting down to dig the planting hole and reducing the amount of labor.
[0021] In this utility model, the vegetable planting device has an inner cylinder that guides the seedlings to slide down, allowing them to be directly placed from above and slide into the planting pit, thereby reducing the amount of labor required for manual planting operations that previously required bending over.
[0022] In this invention, after moving the device to the planting area, the digging operation can be performed by operating the handle and lever on top. Then, the seedlings can be directly put into the planting pit and allowed to slide down into the pit on their own to complete the planting effect. This eliminates the need for operators to frequently squat and stand up, reducing the workload. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0028] In one embodiment: Reference Figure 1 A seeding device includes: a frame 1, an inner cylinder 9, a flat plate 11, and a conical shell 12.
[0029] The side wall of the frame 1 is provided with a sliding hole 3. The inner cylinder 9 is a hollow cylindrical structure and is slidably installed on the inner wall of the frame 1. A connecting frame 2 is fixedly installed on its outer wall, and the connecting frame 2 extends to the outside of the frame 1 through the sliding hole 3. A second handle 8 is installed at the top of the connecting frame 2, and a first handle 10 is provided at the corresponding position on the outer wall of the frame 1 so that the operator can operate it manually. The surfaces of both handles are provided with anti-slip texture 4 to enhance grip stability.
[0030] refer to Figure 2-3 The flat plate 11 is fixed to the front side of the bottom end of the inner cylinder 9, and its working surface is designed with a horizontal cutting edge. The conical shell 12 is located on one side of the flat plate 11 and is connected to the side frame 7 through the connecting rod 13. The side wall of the connecting frame 2 and the outer wall of the inner cylinder 9 are both fixedly provided with a first limiting rod 14. The side frame 7 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the two first limiting rods 14, and the outer wall of the first limiting rod 14 is sleeved with a compression spring 15. The two ends of the compression spring 15 abut against the outer wall of the first limiting rod 14 and the side wall of the side frame 7 respectively through spring seats. A pull rod 16 extends from the side wall of the side frame 7 below the second handle 8 to facilitate single-finger hooking operation.
[0031] A second limiting rod 18 is welded to the outer wall of the frame 1. The connecting frame 2 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the limiting rod 18. A tension spring 17 is sleeved on the outer wall of the second limiting rod 18. The two ends of the tension spring 17 are connected to the frame 1 and the connecting frame 2 respectively through hooks to provide the inner cylinder 9 with the upward reset force. Legs 6 are welded to the bottom of the frame 1, and rollers 5 are installed at the ends of the legs 6.
[0032] Specifically, the operator holds the first handle 10 with one hand and pushes the device to the planting point via the roller 5;
[0033] Then, use the other hand to move the second handle 8 downwards, thereby driving the connecting frame 2 to slide down along the sliding hole 3, causing the flat plate 11 at the bottom of the inner cylinder 9 and the conical shell 12 to be inserted vertically into the soil. At this time, the flat plate 11 cuts out a soil groove, and the conical shell 12 forms the initial planting cavity.
[0034] Then, the index finger hooks the lever 16 and pulls it outward. The side frame 7 slides along the first limiting rod 14 and compresses the compression spring 15. Through the connecting rod 13, the conical shell 12 moves horizontally outward, causing the initial planting cavity to expand laterally and form a planting pit.
[0035] Then, release handle 10, take a single seedling and put it into the top of the inner cylinder 9. The seedling slides down the inner wall of the inner cylinder 9 into the planting pit.
[0036] Finally, after the external force is removed, the tension spring 17 drives the connecting frame 2 to move upward and reset, causing the inner cylinder 9 to detach from the soil. The compression spring 15 pushes the side frame 7 to move inward, so that the conical shell 12 and the flat plate 11 close again, completing a single planting cycle.
[0037] Furthermore, operators can carry the seedling basket on their backs for single-person operation or work in pairs, with one person operating the device to dig holes and the other placing the seedlings in.
[0038] This application can be used in the field of vegetable cultivation, or in other fields applicable to this application.
[0039] In another embodiment: Reference Figure 1 A vegetable planting device is used in the field of vegetable planting. The rollers 5 are set in two sets, with two rollers in each set. When the rollers 5 are actually moved, they will move on both sides of the planted seedlings to avoid accidentally touching the seedlings.
[0040] The accompanying drawings in this application are for illustrative purposes only. The dimensions and shapes of the components shown are not actual limitations but are merely schematic representations. In actual implementation, the components can be reasonably configured and adjusted according to specific needs and actual conditions.
[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
