Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural machinery and equipment, and in particular to an automatic seedling feeding system for a seedling weaving machine. Background Technology

[0002] Some vegetables and crops are grown using soilless transplanting. This method eliminates the need for traditional seedling tray preparation and transplanting with soil, significantly reducing labor intensity and planting costs. Furthermore, factory-style seedling production enables large-scale production, shortening the seedling cycle and allowing the seedlings to recover 2-3 days earlier than traditional methods, promoting early growth and high yields. It also reduces soil usage, avoids continuous cropping obstacles and soil-borne diseases, significantly saves water, and allows for the recycling of nutrient solutions. Currently, transplanting is typically done manually, which requires high labor costs for large-scale planting, and the precision of controlling planting depth and spacing is limited. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the soilless transplanting method, adopting a high-efficiency planting method using integrated seedling weaving and laying, and designing corresponding seedling weaving equipment. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model proposes an automatic seedling feeding system for a seedling weaving machine.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is: an automatic seedling feeding system for a seedling weaving machine, including a belt conveyor and a pushing mechanism; both ends of the belt conveyor are provided with support legs, which support the belt conveyor to a certain height; the pushing mechanism includes a linear module, a flip motor, and a seedling feeding bracket; the linear module is a belt-driven linear module; the end of the belt conveyor is provided with a support seat; the linear module is fixedly installed on the surface of the support seat; the length direction of the linear module is consistent with the width direction of the belt conveyor; the flip motor is fixed on the slider surface of the linear module; the output shaft direction of the flip motor is consistent with the length direction of the linear module; the seedling feeding bracket is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the flip motor; the position of the seedling feeding bracket corresponds to the output end of the belt conveyor.

[0005] Preferably, the belt conveyor has a plurality of seedling seats evenly spaced along the width direction of the belt surface. The seedling seats are made of flexible plastic material and are integrally connected to the belt. Each seedling seat consists of two limiting bosses, and a seedling gap is provided between the two limiting bosses. The size of the seedling gap matches the size of the seedling.

[0006] Preferably, the seedling delivery bracket includes a main shaft and at least two V-shaped frames. The main shaft is coaxially and fixedly connected to the output shaft of the flipping motor through a coupling. The length direction of the main shaft is consistent with the length direction of the linear module, and the V-shaped frames are evenly connected to the main shaft.

[0007] Preferably, the V-shaped frame includes two inclined baffles, which are symmetrically clamped on both sides of the main shaft in a V-shape.

[0010] The beneficial technical effects of this utility model are:

[0011] This invention utilizes a belt conveyor with a seedling feeding seat to transport seedlings forward at equal intervals. A seedling feeding bracket catches any seedlings that fall off at the end of the conveyor, and a linear module pushes the seedlings laterally, automatically pushing them into the weaving equipment. A flipping motor drives the seedling feeding bracket to automatically flip and dump the seedlings out, achieving automatic seedling feeding. This effectively improves the efficiency of seedling weaving operations. Furthermore, this equal-interval, timed, and quantitative seedling feeding method ensures the spacing between seedlings during weaving, improving the quality of seedling weaving.

[0018] Example 1, see appendix to the instruction manual. Figure 1-3 An automatic seedling feeding system for a seedling weaving machine includes a belt conveyor 1 and a pushing mechanism. The pushing mechanism includes a linear module 2, a flipping motor 4, and a seedling feeding bracket. The end of the belt conveyor 1 is provided with a support base 3. The linear module 2 is fixedly installed on the surface of the support base 3. The length direction of the linear module 2 is consistent with the width direction of the belt conveyor 1. The flipping motor 4 is fixed on the surface of the slider 21 of the linear module 2, so that the flipping motor 4 can move synchronously and linearly on the linear module 2 with the slider 21. The seedling feeding bracket is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the flipping motor 4. The seedling feeding bracket is driven to rotate by the flipping motor 4. The position of the seedling feeding bracket corresponds to the output end of the belt conveyor 1. Seedlings 71 are placed on the belt 11 and conveyed forward. When the seedlings 71 reach the end of the belt 11, they will detach from the belt and fall downwards. The seedling feeding bracket catches the falling seedlings 71.

[0019] The belt 11 of the belt conveyor 1 has several seedling seats at equal intervals along the width direction of the belt 11. Each seedling seat consists of two limiting bosses 12. There is a seedling gap between the two limiting bosses. The seedling gap is used to accommodate and place seedlings 71. The seedling seats are used to fix the seedlings 71 on the belt 11 and transport them at equal intervals.

[0020] The seedling feeding support includes a main shaft 51 and at least two V-shaped frame bodies 6. The main shaft 51 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the output shaft of the flipping motor 4. The length direction of the main shaft 51 is consistent with the length direction of the linear module 2. The V-shaped frame bodies 6 are evenly connected to the main shaft 51. The V-shaped groove structure formed between the V-shaped frame bodies 6 can stably support the seedlings 71. The flipping motor 4 drives the main shaft 51 to rotate, and the main shaft 51 drives the V-shaped frame bodies 6 to rotate, thereby flipping and tilting the seedlings 71 out from between the V-shaped frame bodies 6.

[0021] Both ends of the linear module 2 are equipped with U-shaped photoelectric switches 22. The side of the slider 21 is equipped with an L-shaped limiting plate 23 corresponding to the position of the U-shaped photoelectric switch 22. When the seedling feeding bracket moves to the front of the belt conveyor 1 with the slider 21, the L-shaped limiting plate 23 triggers the U-shaped photoelectric switch 22 at one end, and the linear module 2 stops working. The seedling feeding bracket receives the seedling 71. When the seedling feeding bracket moves forward with the slider 21 and sends the seedling 71 into the weaving equipment, the L-shaped limiting plate 23 triggers the U-shaped photoelectric switch 22 at the other end, and the linear module 2 stops working. The seedling feeding bracket is driven to flip by the flipping motor 4, and the seedling 71 is tilted out. The linear module 2 moves back and forth to drive the seedling feeding bracket to receive and feed the seedlings.

[0022] When the seedling weaving machine of this embodiment uses the automatic seedling feeding system, the seedlings 71 are placed in the seedling placement gap between the upper limit bosses 12 of the belt 11. The seedlings 71 are conveyed forward with the belt 11. When the seedlings 71 reach the end of the belt conveyor 1, they will detach from the belt 11 and fall downwards. At this time, the seedling feeding bracket located below catches the seedlings 71. The seedlings 71 enter the V-shaped frame 6 on the main shaft 51. Then, the linear module 2 is activated to push the flipping motor 4 and the seedling feeding bracket laterally. The seedlings 71 are automatically fed into the weaving equipment along with the seedling feeding bracket. Then, the flipping motor 4 is activated, and the seedling feeding bracket is automatically flipped by the flipping motor 4, tilting the seedlings 71 out for weaving. With the continuous and equally spaced feeding of the seedlings 71, the seedlings 71 are continuously fed into the weaving equipment for weaving operations, which effectively improves the weaving efficiency of the seedlings 71. Moreover, this equally spaced, timed, and quantitative seedling feeding method can ensure the plant spacing of the seedlings 71 and improve the weaving quality of the seedlings 71.

[0023] Example 2, see appendix to the instruction manual. Figure 4-5 This embodiment is basically the same as Embodiment 1, and the similarities will not be repeated. The difference is that the V-shaped frame 6 is designed to include two inclined baffles 61. The two inclined baffles 61 are symmetrically clamped on both sides of the main shaft 51 in a V-shape. The length of the outer inclined baffle 61 can be greater than the length of the inner inclined baffle. The outer inclined baffle 61 can generate a blocking effect with a larger range, improve the receiving effect of the seedlings 71, and avoid accidental material drop. The lower end of the inclined baffle 61 is provided with a through hole, and the main shaft 51 is provided with a radial hole. A fastening bolt 62 is installed between the through hole and the radial hole to fix the inclined baffle 61 to the main shaft 51. The tightening force of the fastening bolt 62 tightens and fixes the two inclined baffles 61 to the main shaft 51, so that the two inclined baffles 61 form a V-shaped plate structure.

[0024] An auxiliary bolt 63 is provided above the fastening bolt 62. The auxiliary bolt is connected between the middle of the two inclined baffles 61. The auxiliary bolt 63 is pressed against the upper side of the main shaft 51. The auxiliary bolt 63 assists the fastening bolt 62 in fixing the inclined baffles 61, thereby improving the installation stability of the inclined baffles.
