    Abstract:

    With the aim to realize feeding seedlings stably, accurately and quickly, this paper introduces a feeding-seedling device for the high-speed feeding-seedling device for pot-seedling. This device reduces the moving distance of the seedling box when operating by using a periodic non-uniform lateral shift box. And with the proposed seedling vertical driving device, vertical seedling gains its accuracy and stability as well as high speed. The operational principle of the lateral feeding-seedling device was firstly elaborated, followed by its structure design. Secondly, working principle of the seedling vertical driving device was analyzed and its kinematics model was established. Then a set of feasible parameters was obtained by Matlab and applied in the following device design. Finally, a validation test was carried out. The test result indicates that the seedling box of the proposed lateral feeding-seedling device gains shorter distance when picking seedlings, with a 37% reduction from the traditional one. Moreover, this device achieves error within ±2mm in single feeding and without cumulative error. The proposed feeding-seedling device is able to support pot-seedling speed of 200~250 times/min.
