Abstract

In order to meet the requirement for the automatic cultivation bed matrix filling for potted vegetables in production, a cultivation bed matrix filler, consisting of the enclosure, rotating device, filling device, compacting device and control system, is designed with SolidWorks. The result of the trial running of the sample unit made on the basis of this design shows that the filler as a whole works in a stable manner and is capable of achieving automatic matrix filling for the cultivation bed. The filler takes 30 second to complete the filling of a cultivation bed, effectively increasing work efficiency of cultivation matrix filling and reducing the labor cost; in the meantime, the filler is characterized by a simple structure, low cost of manufacturing and easy operation. The filler can be applied to provide a favorable support for enlarging production of potted vegetables, thus having a bright future of promotion in the field of vegetable potting.
