Cultivation system with mobile plant carriers, used in greenhouses, uses pusher to transfer rows of plant pots to discharge conveyor

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# A pusher (9) extends over the entire length or width of the carrier (1) and can transfer entire rows of plant pots (2-4) to the discharge conveyor. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# For growing potted plants in greenhouses. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# Plants grown in pots or other containers can be easily removed from these receptacles and transferred to a discharge conveyor, using a system which is relatively cheap to install. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The figure shows a plan view of the cultivation system. 1 : Mobile plant carriers, e.g. roller containers or cultivation tables 2 : Plant pots 3, 4 : Rows of plant pots 5 : Discharge belt 7 : Transfer conveyor 9 : Pusher #CMT#MECHANICAL ENGINEERING : #/CMT# A transfer conveyor (7) is located upstream from the discharge conveyor. A buffer space is provided upstream from the discharge conveyor.
