Design of a Hanging Basket Type Self-propelled Transplanter
To ensure real-time transplanting of seedlings in hilly areas and improve the quality of transplanting,this paper elaborates on the working principle and structure of a basket type self-propelled transplanting machine's walking device and transplanting mechanism.Verify the working speed and structural layout of the walking device through analysis,calculation,and 1:1 modeling,and verify the coordination of vari-ous actions of the transplanting mechanism and the quality of the seedlings.Based on the results of modeling analysis,the main parameters of the design are determined,and the main components of the walking mechanism device—wheel frame mechanism,main drive gearbox mecha-nism,frame,lifting mechanism,horizontal adjustment mechanism and control device are designed.The main components of the transplanting mechanism—transplanting gearbox mechanism,plant spacing adjustment mechanism,crank connecting rod mechanism,duckbill transplanting device,automatic feeding mechanism,etc.are designed.Through prototype trial production and experiments,this machine can achieve the goals of adjustable transplanting spacing(260-600 mm),transplanting depth(80-160 mm),and high efficiency.At the same time,it has the advantages of reasonable and compact structure,convenient maintenance and simple operation.
