Resumen
In this study, an automatic accumulating equipment for a roller-type onion pot-seeding machine was developed. The developed accumulating equipment accumulates the pot trays that complete the seeding in multiple stages using a conveyor belt and elevator plate, and can be easily attached to the existing roller-type onion pot-seeding machines as it is fabricated as a module. The components were selected to meet the conditions required for the accumulating equipment. A factorial experiment was performed by setting the transport speed of the conveyor belt and the one-time operating time of the actuator as test factors. Through the experiment, appropriate operating conditions to minimize the seed bounce rate in the accumulating process were derived. If the developed accumulating equipment is applied to a roller-type onion pot-seeding machine, the labor force and labor load required for seeding will be reduced.
