Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural equipment technology, and in particular to a garlic clove bud straightening device. Background Technology
[0002] When planting garlic, it is necessary to ensure that the bud tips (physiological upper ends) of the garlic cloves are pointing in the same direction to facilitate mechanized planting and subsequent uniform emergence. Currently, many regions still use manual methods for garlic clove orientation, which is inefficient, labor-intensive, costly, and difficult to meet the needs of large-scale planting.
[0003] A search revealed that CN221306499U, a patent announcement number, discloses a garlic clove sorting and bud-aligning device, comprising a sorting mechanism and a bud-aligning mechanism. The sorting mechanism is used to adjust the garlic cloves to a flat position with the buds or roots facing forward, and outputs them one by one to the bud-aligning mechanism. The bud-aligning mechanism includes a bud-aligning base plate, a downstream limiting plate, a first side limiting plate, and a second side limiting plate. The bud-aligning base plate is an arc-shaped plate, and its axis is consistent with the conveying direction of the garlic cloves. A garlic clove outlet is centrally located at the bottom of the bud-aligning base plate. The downstream limiting plate is located downstream of the bud-aligning base plate and is used to prevent the garlic cloves from moving downstream along the axis of the bud-aligning base plate. The first side limiting plate... The limiting plate and the second side limiting plate are set opposite each other on both sides of the bud-aligning base plate to prevent garlic cloves from falling off the sides of the bud-aligning base plate. The bud-aligning mechanism has a reasonable structure and can keep the roots of garlic cloves in the lowest position during working vibration, thereby improving the consistency of its output and realizing the upright planting of garlic clove scales and buds. However, in this technical solution, the garlic cloves are discharged from the sorting mechanism and fall directly to the bud-aligning mechanism, which can easily damage the scales and skin of the garlic cloves. Moreover, it only relies on the position adjustment of the garlic cloves on the arc base plate by their own weight, and the bud-aligning effect is not ideal. The bud-aligning process depends on the vibration of the entire seeder, and the effect is unstable. The garlic cloves are very easy to get clogged at the discharge port. Utility Model Content

[0006] Furthermore, the housing includes a first limiting plate, a second limiting plate, a third limiting plate, and a fourth limiting plate, which are fixedly arranged along the base plate, wherein the fourth limiting plate is inclinedly arranged on the base plate.
[0007] Furthermore, the first limiting plate, the second limiting plate, the third limiting plate, and the fourth limiting plate are straight plates, grooved plates, or arc-shaped plates.
[0008] Furthermore, the second limiting plate and the third limiting plate are arranged opposite to each other.

[0013] Furthermore, the major axis of the discharge port or the major axis of its circumscribed ellipse is 26-60 mm, and the minor axis of the discharge port or the minor axis of its circumscribed ellipse is 20-40 mm.
[0014] Furthermore, a discharge pipe is provided at the bottom of the discharge port.

[0018] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these descriptions are for the purpose of aiding understanding of this utility model, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0019] Example 1, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, a garlic clove bud-aligning device includes a bud-aligning mechanism 1, which comprises a housing 4 and a base plate 7. The inner wall of the housing 4 is funnel-shaped, and the top of the housing 4 is provided with a feed inlet 5 for feeding garlic cloves. The base plate 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the housing 4, and the base plate 7 is provided with a discharge outlet 3, which is elliptical in shape, allowing the garlic cloves to pass through in a specific posture.
[0020] The housing 4 includes a first limiting plate 8, a second limiting plate 9, a third limiting plate 10, and a fourth limiting plate 11. The first limiting plate 8, the second limiting plate 9, the third limiting plate 10, and the fourth limiting plate 11 are fixedly arranged along each side of the base plate 7. The fixed connection method can be various, such as but not limited to welding, bolt connection, or riveting. The fourth limiting plate 11 is inclinedly arranged on the base plate 7.
[0021] The shapes of the first limiting plate 8, the second limiting plate 9, the third limiting plate 10, and the fourth limiting plate 11 are not limited; they can be straight plates, grooved plates, or curved plates. In this example, the first limiting plate 8, the second limiting plate 9, and the third limiting plate 10 are all straight plates, while the fourth limiting plate 11 is a curved plate. The fourth limiting plate 11 is the main channel for guiding the garlic clove's posture adjustment and descent.
[0022] The long axis of the discharge port 3 is set parallel to the first limiting plate 8, and the second limiting plate 9 is set opposite to the third limiting plate 10.
[0023] A garlic clove budding device also includes a vibrator 2. The budding mechanism 1 is vibratingly coupled with the vibrator 2. The vibrator 2 can be an electromagnetic vibrator or a micro vibration motor. The vibration energy generated by the vibrator 2 can be effectively transmitted to the budding mechanism 1, causing the budding mechanism 1 to generate high-frequency micro-amplitude vibration, which effectively prevents the garlic cloves from being blocked or stuck at the discharge port 3, ensuring the continuity and stability of the operation.
[0024] The specific installation location and connection method of the vibrator 2 are not limited, as long as the vibrator 2 can maintain effective contact with the budding mechanism 1 and transmit vibration.
[0025] The edge of the discharge port 3 is rounded.
[0026] The shape of the base plate 7 is not limited; it can be a straight plate structure or an arc-shaped structure.
[0027] The major axis of the discharge port 3 is 26-60mm, and the minor axis is 20-40mm. In this example, the major axis is 40mm and the minor axis is 28mm.
[0028] The bottom of the discharge port 3 is equipped with a feeding pipe 6, which provides a guiding channel for the garlic cloves to ensure the final realization of the positive sprouting effect.
[0029] Working principle: When working, the garlic clove budding device is set at the lower end of the garlic planter's seed conveyor, the vibrator 2 is turned on, and then the garlic cloves are fed one by one into the feed inlet 5 at the top of the budding mechanism 1. Under the action of their own gravity, the garlic cloves slide along the fourth limiting plate 11 to the discharge outlet 3 at the bottom.
[0030] When the garlic cloves are conveyed onto the base plate 7, if the buds face forward, the buds can pass through the discharge port 3 on the base plate 7 because the center of gravity of the garlic clove is located at the root. However, they cannot continue to move axially due to the restriction of the first limiting plate 8. Under continuous vibration, the garlic clove buds shift towards the second limiting plate 9 or the third limiting plate 10 until the root is aligned with the discharge port 3 and discharged under gravity. If the root faces forward, the root of the garlic clove passes through the discharge port 3 first, and because the center of gravity is forward, it is discharged directly from the discharge port 3.
[0031] A funnel-shaped bud-aligning mechanism 1 is installed, which utilizes the weight of the garlic cloves to naturally and quickly converge towards the central discharge port 3, protecting the garlic cloves. The fourth limiting plate 11 is tilted to guide the garlic cloves' posture adjustment and descent to the discharge port 3. A vibrator 2 is installed to effectively prevent the garlic cloves from clogging or getting stuck at the discharge port 3. Utilizing the garlic cloves' own center of gravity characteristics and the vibration assistance of the vibrator 2, the posture of the garlic cloves is adjusted, enabling most garlic cloves to achieve a uniform posture with the bud tip facing upwards. This results in high orientation accuracy, good bud alignment, and ensures the continuity and stability of the operation. By setting a reasonable limit size for the discharge port 3, it can accommodate garlic cloves of different varieties and sizes. The rounded corners at the edge of the discharge port 3 prevent right-angled edges from scratching the garlic cloves, improving the integrity of the garlic cloves and increasing the garlic clove discharge speed.
[0032] Example 2, as Figure 1-3As shown in Figure 5, a garlic clove bud-aligning device includes a bud-aligning mechanism 1. The bud-aligning mechanism 1 includes a housing 4 and a base plate 7. The inner wall of the housing 4 is funnel-shaped, and the top of the housing 4 is provided with a feed inlet 5 for feeding garlic cloves. The base plate 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the housing 4, and the base plate 7 is provided with a discharge outlet 3. The discharge outlet 3 is polygonal, and in this example, it is hexagonal, so that the garlic cloves can pass through in a specific posture.
[0033] The housing 4 includes a first limiting plate 8, a second limiting plate 9, a third limiting plate 10, and a fourth limiting plate 11. The first limiting plate 8, the second limiting plate 9, the third limiting plate 10, and the fourth limiting plate 11 are fixedly arranged along each side of the base plate 7. The fixed connection method can be various, such as but not limited to welding, bolt connection, or riveting. The fourth limiting plate 11 is inclinedly arranged on the base plate 7.
[0034] The shapes of the first limiting plate 8, the second limiting plate 9, the third limiting plate 10, and the fourth limiting plate 11 are not limited; they can be straight plates, grooved plates, or curved plates. In this example, the first limiting plate 8 is a curved plate, the second limiting plate 9 and the third limiting plate 10 are straight plates, and the fourth limiting plate 11 is a grooved plate. The fourth limiting plate 11 is the main channel for guiding the garlic clove's posture adjustment and descent.
[0035] The second limiting plate 9 and the third limiting plate 10 are positioned opposite each other.
[0036] A garlic clove budding device also includes a vibrator 2. The budding mechanism 1 is vibratingly coupled with the vibrator 2. The vibrator 2 can be an electromagnetic vibrator or a micro vibration motor. The vibration energy generated by the vibrator 2 can be effectively transmitted to the budding mechanism 1, causing the budding mechanism 1 to generate high-frequency micro-amplitude vibration, which effectively prevents the garlic cloves from being blocked or stuck at the discharge port 3, ensuring the continuity and stability of the operation.
[0037] The specific installation location and connection method of the vibrator 2 are not limited, as long as the vibrator 2 can maintain effective contact with the budding mechanism 1 and transmit vibration.
[0038] The edge of the discharge port 3 is rounded.
[0039] The shape of the base plate 7 is not limited; it can be a straight plate structure or an arc-shaped structure.
[0040] The major axis of the circumscribed ellipse of the discharge port 3 is 26-60mm, and the minor axis is 20-40mm. In this example, the major axis of the circumscribed ellipse of the discharge port 3 is 40mm, and the minor axis is 28mm.
[0041] The bottom of the discharge port 3 is equipped with a feeding pipe 6, which provides a guiding channel for the garlic cloves to ensure the final realization of the positive sprouting effect.
[0042] The working principle in Example 2 is the same as the usage method in Example 1, and will not be repeated here.
[0043] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but this utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model, and these variations still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
