Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seedling screening technology, specifically a seedling screening device for citrus cultivation. Background Technology

[0002] Citrus, also known as mandarin orange, orange, tangerine, etc., is a small tree belonging to the genus Citrus in the family Rutaceae. In the process of citrus cultivation, seedling selection is a key step in ensuring the quality of mature plants.

[0003] Traditional screening relies on manual visual inspection of seedling height and leaf quantity, which not only increases labor costs but also leads to low work efficiency. Screening equipment is sometimes used to screen seedlings.

[0004] For example, application number CN202323468331.1 discloses a potato seedling screening device, which includes a base, an isolation plate fixedly connected to the top of the base, an experimental platform fixedly connected to the base on the side of the isolation plate, a culture tank placed inside the experimental platform, and a through hole opened at the bottom of the culture tank.

[0005] The screening devices in the above cases only use cameras for morphological detection and cannot obtain physiological indicators such as chlorophyll content and root development. The rate of missing seedlings carrying latent diseases and pests is relatively high. Traditional equipment is mostly static detection and cannot be adapted to assembly line operations. Moreover, it cannot separate and transport the seedlings after screening, which reduces flexibility and requires manual secondary sorting and transportation later. Therefore, we provide a seedling screening device for citrus planting. Utility Model Content

[0021] The limiting placement component 3 includes connecting blocks 31, a plurality of which are respectively installed between two belts 102. A support block 32 is fixedly connected to the top of each connecting block 31. A pluggable transparent shell 33 is provided on the top of each support block 32. The transparent shell 33 is made of optical-grade PMMA material. First electric push rods 34 are fixedly connected to both sides of the transparent shell 33. The output end of each first electric push rod 34 passes through the transparent shell 33 and extends into it, where a pressure sensor 35 is fixedly connected. A silicone clamp 36 is fixedly connected to the pressure sensor 35. The transparent shell 33... A slot 37 is provided at the bottom. The top of the support block 32 is fixedly connected to an insert block 38 that is compatible with the slot 37. The top of the insert block 38 passes through the slot 37 and extends into it, where an iron block 5 is fixedly connected. The top of the inner wall of the slot 37 is fixedly connected to a magnet 6 that attracts the iron block 5. By setting the iron block 5 and the magnet 6, the stability of the insert block 38 when inserted into the slot 37 is improved, thereby ensuring the stability of the transparent shell 33 when it moves. By setting the pressure sensor 35 and the silicone clamp 36, the clamping force of the clamp is prevented from being too large and causing damage to the rootstock, thus achieving the effect of protecting it.

[0022] The drive transfer assembly 4 includes a fixing plate 41, which is installed on the right side of the fixing housing 100. Two second electric push rods 42 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing plate 41. The bottom ends of the two second electric push rods 42 are fixedly connected through a horizontal plate 43. A groove 44 is provided at the bottom of the horizontal plate 43. A third electric push rod 45 is fixedly connected to the back of the horizontal plate 43. The front end of the third electric push rod 45 passes through the groove 44 and extends into it, where a slider 46 is fixedly connected. A recess 47 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider 46. A fourth electric push rod 48 is fixedly connected to the bottom of both sides of the recess 47.

[0023] A slide rod 7 is fixedly connected to the back of the inner wall of the slide groove 44. The front end of the slide rod 7 passes through the slider 46 and extends to its outside and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 44. By setting the slide rod 7, the stability of the slider 46 when moving back and forth is improved.

[0024] Camera body 22: USB 3.0 for image data transmission; Chlorophyll detector 23: 4-20mA current signal output SPAD value; Infrared range sensor 25: TTL level output distance data; Root scanner 26: Gigabit Ethernet for image transmission. The camera body 22, chlorophyll detector 23, infrared range sensor 25, root scanner 26, first electric actuator 34, pressure sensor 35, second electric actuator 42, third electric actuator 45, fourth electric actuator 48, and conveyor belt 101 are electrically connected to the PLC controller. The PLC controller, model S7-1200, controls the electric actuators through the PN interface, and is powered by a battery.

[0025] By having the camera body 22, chlorophyll detector 23, infrared ranging sensor 25, and dual root scanner 26 of the screening and detection component 2 work together, a three-dimensional detection of seedling morphology and physiological indicators can be achieved. It can obtain information on leaf diseases and pests, chlorophyll content, plant height, and root branching, thus improving the detection and screening effect. The first electric push rod 34 drives the silicone clamp 36 to automatically clamp the stem, and the pressure sensor 35 monitors the clamping force in real time to avoid damaging the seedling and ensure the stability of the detection position. By setting up the drive transfer component 4, the transparent shell 33 after detection can be easily transferred along with the seedling to the corresponding conveyor belt for classification and transportation, thus improving work efficiency.

[0026] When in use, place the roots of the citrus seedling into the transparent shell 33, manually align the slot 37 at the bottom of the transparent shell 33 with the insert block 38 of the support block 32, and insert it. The iron block 5 and the magnet 6 are attracted and fixed. Start the first electric push rod 34, and the silicone clamp 36 clamps the stem of the seedling with a pressure of 0.8N. The pressure sensor 35 provides real-time feedback. The conveyor belt 101 is started, and the belt 102 drives the limiting placement component 3 into the fixed shell 100 at a speed of 1m / min. The camera body 22 captures leaf images at 10 frames / second to identify disease and pest spots. The chlorophyll detector 23 emits a 650nm / 940nm light beam to measure the SPAD value of the leaf. Two infrared distance sensors 25 emit light beams simultaneously and calculate the plant height through triangulation. Two root scanners 26 capture root images from the front and back. A 1000DPI linear array CCD identifies the number of fibrous roots and damage. The detection data is transmitted to the PLC controller and compared with the preset standards, such as a plant height of 15-25cm, SPAD≥45, and fibrous roots≥10. After the test is completed, the limiting placement component 3 moves to the front of the lifting block 410, and the third electric push rod 45 is activated. The third electric push rod 45 drives the slider 46 to move forward. The slider 46 drives the lifting block 410 to the bottom of the transparent shell 33 through the concave block 47. Then the fourth electric push rod 48 is activated, so that the two lifting blocks 410 move closer to each other to clamp the transparent shell 33. The second electric push rod 42 is activated again, so that the second electric push rod 42 drives the horizontal plate 43 and the lifting block 410 to move upward, so that the transparent shell 33 drives the slot 37 to separate from the insertion block 38. Then the third electric push rod 45 is activated again, so that the third electric push rod 45 drives the transparent shell 33 and the seedling to move forward through the lifting block 410. Qualified seedlings are transferred by the drive transfer component 4 to the qualified transfer component 8 and then transported to the right via the conveyor belt. Unqualified seedlings are transferred by the drive transfer component 4 to the unqualified transfer component 9 and then transported to the right via the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt transports the seedlings at a speed of 0.8 m / min. The seedlings are collected manually at the end. At the same time, when the drive transfer component 4 lifts the transparent shell 33, the conveyor belt 101 can pause for a few seconds. After the transparent shell 33 is removed from the support block 32, the conveyor belt 101 is restarted.
