“…Vegetable bowl seedling automatic conveying is an important step in the realization of automatic vegetable transplanting technology [1,2]; the key problem is how to convey seedlings orderly to planting institutions, including the exact supply of seedlings, seedling bowl individual removal, and orderly delivery and delivery operations [3][4][5]. All operations require a steady convergence of action and high efficiency, to ensure the delivery speed while avoiding the phenomenon of seedling saplings and leakage of seedlings to prevent subsequent planting operations, resulting in leakage planted and the survival rate decreased [6][7][8].…”

In order to improve the automation and reliability of the mechanized transplanting, a vegetable seedling automatic conveying system was designed. The functional execution component of the system consists of a tank-wheel storage seedling mechanism, a seedling tray conveyor, and a hanging cup circulating conveying mechanism. Combined with the communication technology between host computer and programmable logic controller (PLC), the user interface software of automatic conveying system for potted vegetable was developed by using Visual Studio to control and monitor the transmission progress. The PVDF pressure sensor was used to detect the pressure change of the seedling storage disk to obtain the information of the loading seedling tray. The limit switch and stroke switch were combined to obtain the information of the push rod and feed plate. The timing of each component is controlled by the PLC controller combined with the feedback information of each sensor. The test results show the effect of taking an individual seedling is excellent, the error rate of the pushing mechanism is about 2.08%, and the success rate was 97.91%.
