[0008] Mounting base one and mounting base two are respectively installed on the top two sides of the base plate. The drive shaft is rotatably installed on the top of mounting base one, and the driven shaft is rotatably installed on the top of mounting base two. The motor is installed on one side of mounting base one, and the rotation shaft of the motor is connected to the drive shaft. The conveyor belt is sleeved on the outside of the drive shaft and the driven shaft. A limit component is provided on the top of mounting base one.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the cooling component includes a cooler, a three-way pipe, an air supply pipe, a nozzle, and a mounting bracket. The mounting bracket is installed in the middle of the top of the base plate, and the cooler is installed on one side of the mounting bracket. The three-way pipe is connected to the air outlet of the cooler.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the top and right sides of the three-way pipe are equipped with air supply pipes. The other end of the air supply pipe at the top extends above the conveyor belt and is equipped with the nozzle.

[0022] In the attached diagram, all identical reference numerals refer to the same components.

[0023] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a seedling tray production and conveying device, comprising:

[0024] The base plate 1 has a conveying assembly 2 on its top. The conveying assembly 2 includes a mounting base 1 201, a mounting base 202, a motor 203, a drive shaft, a driven shaft, and a conveyor belt 204. The base plate 1 has a cooling assembly 3 on its top. The base plate 1 has a mounting bracket 2 4 on its top. The mounting bracket 2 4 has a detection device 5 installed in the middle of its bottom. The conveyor belt 204 has through holes inside.

[0025] Mounting base 1 has mounting base 1 201 and mounting base 202 installed on its top two sides respectively. Mounting base 1 201 has a drive shaft rotatably mounted on its top, and mounting base 202 has a driven shaft rotatably mounted on its top. Mounting base 1 201 has a motor 203 installed on one side. The rotation shaft of the motor 203 is connected to the drive shaft. The drive shaft and the driven shaft are fitted with a conveyor belt 204. Mounting base 1 201 has a limit component 6 on its top.

[0026] Furthermore, the mounting base 201 is equipped with a receiving box 7 inside.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] In this embodiment, the cooling assembly 3 includes a fan 301, a three-way pipe 302, an air supply pipe 303, a nozzle 304, and a mounting bracket 305. The mounting bracket 305 is installed in the middle of the top of the base plate 1. The fan 301 is installed on one side of the mounting bracket 305, and the three-way pipe 302 is connected to the air outlet of the fan 301.

[0029] Furthermore, air supply pipes 303 are installed at the top and right side of the three-way pipe 302. The other end of the air supply pipe 303 at the top extends above the conveyor belt 204 and is equipped with a nozzle 304. The other end of the air supply pipe 303 at the right side extends between the conveyor belts 204 and is equipped with a nozzle 304. The air jet directions of the two nozzles 304 are opposite.

[0030] Specifically, through the combination of the air cooler 301, the three-way pipe 302, and the air supply pipe 303, the newly produced seedling trays can be cooled down by the nozzle 304, thus ensuring the quality and performance of the seedling trays.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] In this embodiment, the limiting component 6 includes an electric push rod 601, a mounting plate 602, a limiting frame 603, and a guide roller 604. Mounting plates 602 are installed on both sides of the top of the mounting base 202, and electric push rods 601 are installed on the outer side of the mounting plates 602.

[0033] Furthermore, the free end of the electric push rod 601 passes through the mounting plate 602 and is fitted with a limit frame 603. The limit frame 603 is movably set on both sides of the top of the conveyor belt 204, and eleven guide rollers 604 are rotatably installed inside the limit frame 603.

[0034] Specifically, the distance between the limiting frames 603 can be adjusted by the electric push rod 601, so that the device can limit the seedling trays of different sizes. The limiting roller 604 can guide the seedling trays.

[0035] The working principle of this device is as follows:

[0036] Conveying process:

[0037] The motor 203 is started, and its rotating shaft drives the drive shaft to rotate. Since a conveyor belt 204 is fitted around both the drive and driven shafts, the rotation of the drive shaft drives the driven shaft to rotate via the conveyor belt 204, thus achieving the cyclical operation of the conveyor belt 204. The produced seedling trays are placed on the conveyor belt 204, and the trays are conveyed forward as the conveyor belt 204 moves, passing sequentially below the cooling assembly 3 and the testing device 5.

[0038] Cooling process:

[0039] When the air cooler 301 is turned on, the cold air generated by the air cooler 301 enters the three-way pipe 302 through the air outlet.

[0040] The three-way pipe 302 splits the cold air to the top air supply pipe 303 and the right air supply pipe 303.

[0041] The air supply pipe 303 at the top delivers cold air to the area above the conveyor belt 204 and sprays it downwards through the nozzle 304; the air supply pipe 303 on the right delivers cold air between the conveyor belts 204 and sprays it upwards through the nozzle 304. The two nozzles 304 spray air relative to each other, creating convection, which comprehensively cools the passing seedling trays, allowing the seedling trays to cool down quickly and ensuring their quality and performance.

[0042] Limiting process:

[0043] Based on the width of the seedling tray, the electric push rod 601 is activated. The free end of the electric push rod 601 pushes the limiting frame 603 to move. Since mounting plates 602 are installed on both sides of the top of the mounting base 202, and the electric push rod 601 is installed on the outside of the mounting plate 602 with its free end passing through the mounting plate 602 and connected to the limiting frame 603, the limiting frames 603 on both sides will move simultaneously towards the middle of the conveyor belt 204 or outward.

[0044] Adjust the position of the limiting frame 603 so that it is positioned precisely on both sides of the seedling tray, thus limiting the tray and preventing it from shifting during transport. This ensures the tray passes accurately beneath the cooling assembly 3 and the detection device 5. Simultaneously, the eleven limiting rollers rotatably mounted inside the limiting frame 603 reduce friction between the seedling tray and the frame, resulting in smoother tray transport.

[0045] Testing process:

[0046] When the seedling tray moves along the conveyor belt 204 to below the mounting frame 2 4, the detection device 5 installed in the middle of the bottom of the mounting frame 2 4 detects the seedling tray. The detection device 5 can use technologies such as image recognition and size measurement to detect the appearance, size and other quality indicators of the seedling tray and determine whether the seedling tray is qualified.

[0047] Material receiving process:

[0048] During the transport process, the receiving box 7 inside the mounting base 201 can collect the seedling trays.

[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
