Abstract:
The invention presents technology for elevated cultivation comprising an automatic paver and man-machine collaboration matrix control method in the field of agricultural equipment.The substrate auto-paver for the table-top culture machine is mainly composed of a moving car, a matrix and a matrix-packing mechanism, the substrate material in the cabinet, an evenly paving mechanism that realizes double-sided blanking, and a remote control. The manual push-pull arm is employed to ensure that the return wheel touches the ground, using the matrix agencies to van automatically. The remote control is used to move the car into the elevated inter-row cultivation bed, and then, the double-sided blanking and evenly paving mechanism is automatically activated until the track wheel falls into the slot on the skeleton. By means of the bending type of chain transmission mechanism, the soilless culture substrates are automatically conveyed owing to the bilateral symmetry of blanking trough. A moving trolley drives the stirring device along the elevated bed. Thus, an evenly mixed matrix is obtained for cultivation in the tank. A rubber band, which is fixed on the back board of the stirring device, makes the matrix flat and level. The challenges of substrate packing, transportation, and mobile paving are being solved through collaboration between many institutions and by means of some artificial automatic intervention, which can help realize good adaptability and convenient handling.
