One end of the lead screw is rotatably provided with an arc-shaped abutment plate, and one side of the arc-shaped abutment plate is covered with an anti-slip film.

[0007] In one specific embodiment, a flexible protective bag is provided at the bottom of the first semi-circular plate, and a flexible closed bag is provided at the bottom of the second semi-circular plate.

[0008] In one specific embodiment, a sponge block is adhesively connected to the inner wall of the flexible protective bag. The flexible protective bag and the flexible closed bag have the same structure and are arranged symmetrically.

[0009] In one specific embodiment, a female hook and loop fastener is provided on one side of the surface of the flexible protective bag, and a female hook and loop fastener is provided on one side of the outer surface of the flexible closed bag.

[0010] In one specific embodiment, a square block is provided on one side of the first semi-arc plate, and a connecting block is provided at one end of the second semi-arc plate.

[0011] In one specific embodiment, both sides of the surface of the connecting block are threaded with fixing bolts, and a gasket is snapped into one side of the surface of the fixing bolt.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a root protection device for seedling transplantation, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] In the technical solution disclosed in this utility model, by using the first semi-arc plate, the second semi-arc plate and the positioning component, when the staff transplants the seedlings, the staff can open the first semi-arc plate and the second semi-arc plate and place one side of the seedling inside the first semi-arc plate.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.

[0022] Figures 1-4 In one embodiment of this utility model, a root protection device for seedling transplantation includes a first semi-arc plate 1. A rotating shaft 2 is provided on one side of the first semi-arc plate 1. The rotating shaft 2 is provided to control the first semi-arc plate 1 and the second semi-arc plate 3 to move in a fan shape. A second semi-arc plate 3 is rotatably provided on one side of the rotating shaft 2. Positioning components 4 are provided on both sides of the first semi-arc plate 1 and the second semi-arc plate 3.

[0023] The specific problem addressed in this embodiment is that the protective device used during seedling transplantation is made of a relatively hard material, which can easily cause some of the seedling roots to break, affecting the growth efficiency of the seedlings after transplantation, and making it difficult to fix seedlings of different sizes. This utility model utilizes the arrangement of a first semi-circular plate 1, a second semi-circular plate 3, and a positioning component 4. When transplanting seedlings, workers can open the first semi-circular plate 1 and the second semi-circular plate 3, placing one side of the seedling inside the first semi-circular plate 1. Then, the connecting block 11 and the square block 10 are fixed together using the fixing bolt 12. Afterwards, workers can rotate the screw rod 41 to move the arc-shaped contact plate 42 to fit against both sides of the seedling, thus fixing the seedling to the first semi-circular plate 1 and the second semi-circular plate 3, thereby facilitating the fixing of seedlings of different thicknesses.

[0024] The positioning component 4 includes a screw rod 41 threaded through the outer surfaces of the first semi-arc plate 1 and the second semi-arc plate 3. One end of the screw rod 41 is rotatably provided with an arc-shaped contact plate 42. An anti-slip film is attached to one side of the arc-shaped contact plate 42. In this specific embodiment, a flexible protective bag 5 is provided at the bottom of the first semi-arc plate 1, and a flexible closed bag 6 is provided at the bottom of the second semi-arc plate 3. A sponge block 7 is adhesively connected to the inner wall of the flexible protective bag 5. The flexible protective bag 5 and the flexible closed bag 6 have the same structure and are symmetrically arranged. During the transplanting of seedlings, the workers can use the flexible protective bag 5 and the flexible closed bag 6 to wrap the roots of the seedlings and pre-deliver the seedling nutrient solution into the interior of the sponge block 7. Then, the roots of the seedlings are fully protected and fixed using the male Velcro 8 and the female Velcro 9, thereby effectively protecting the roots of the seedlings and reducing the loss of nutrients from the roots.

[0025] In this specific embodiment, a sub-hook and loop fastener 8 is provided on one side of the surface of the flexible protective bag 5, and a female hook and loop fastener 9 is provided on one side of the outer surface of the flexible closed bag 6. The sub-hook and loop fastener 8 and the female hook and loop fastener 9 facilitate the quick sealing and fixing of the flexible protective bag 5 and the flexible closed bag 6 by the staff. A square block 10 is provided on one side of the first semi-arc plate 1, and a connecting block 11 is provided at one end of the second semi-arc plate 3. Both sides of the surface of the connecting block 11 are threaded with fixing bolts 12. With the setting of fixing bolts 12 and connecting blocks 11, when the staff needs to fix the first semi-arc plate 1 and the second semi-arc plate 3 more stably, the staff can turn the fixing bolts 12 to fix the square block 10 and the connecting block 11 relative to each other, thereby further improving the stability of the first semi-arc plate 1. A gasket is snapped into one side of the surface of the fixing bolt 12. The design of the gasket increases the anti-loosening property of the fixing bolt 12.

[0026] Working principle: When transplanting designated seedlings, the transplanters can place the seedlings between the first semi-circular plate 1 and the second semi-circular plate 3 beforehand. Then, the transplanters can turn the fixing bolt 12 to fix the connecting block 11 and the square block 10. Subsequently, the screw rod 41 can be rotated to move the arc-shaped contact plate 42 towards the center, so that the arc-shaped contact plate 42 fixes the two sides of the seedlings of different sizes. Next, the staff can deliver the seedling root nutrient solution into the interior of the sponge block 7 to increase the protection of the seedling roots. Afterwards, the staff can use the flexible protective bag 5 and the flexible closed bag 6 to wrap and protect the seedling roots, and use the daughter hook and loop fastener 8 and the mother hook and loop fastener 9 to fix the two sides, so as to effectively protect the seedling roots.

[0027] The control method of this utility model is automatic control through a controller. The control circuit of the controller can be implemented by simple programming by those skilled in the art. The power supply is also common knowledge in the field. Since this utility model is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, the control method and circuit connection will not be explained in detail.
