ROSTA-1 seedling planter
ROSTA-1 seedling planter is used for mechanical planting of
cartridge seedlings in one row. It is possible to compile several planters for
multirow planting.

Structure:
The seedling planter consists of theframe
of semirevolving hinge, the wheel drive gear with replaceable gears with
different pitches, the front rolling compactor with a spring, the reducer with
the chain drive and the transmission matched by means of sliders for two valves
of decanter and for two valves in the wedge-shaped ploughshare ; two back
rolling compactors, a seat for the planting man, and the cartridge receiver
also are parts of the planter.
Working and adjusting routine:
When the traction device is moving, a planter man takes seedlings out of the
cartridge and puts them alternately into one of the sleeves with bottom closed.
The sleeve's bottom is opened on demand, and the seedlings get into the
clearance between the ploughshare's valves. These valves move the seedlings
straight down to the end of the ploughshare and into the ground (preliminarily
rolled by the front compactor). The back compactors roll the seedlings in the
ground.
The tractor's speed (approx. 1.2 km/h) is determined by the planter man's
efficiency, plant spacing, the ground's properties. These features may be
adjusted: forces in the spring of the front compactor, the ploughshare's depth,
forces of rolling and the distance between back compactors, distance between
them and the ploughshare, concordance of the 4 valves, planting period
(adjusted by means of changing gears).
