Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of hydraulic valve groups, and in particular to a valve group of an automatic flow stabilization system. Background Art

[0002] There are many types of seed drills, primarily categorized by the type of seeding mechanism. Commonly used are mechanical types, such as external groove wheel, eyelet, finger clamp, and door-type seed drills. In recent years, pneumatic precision seed drills have gained popularity and are currently the most widely used seed drill.

[0003] The pneumatic precision seeder can simultaneously perform furrowing, side fertilization, stubble breaking, sowing, covering, and compacting operations. It is widely used in hole-seeding crops of large and medium-sized grains, such as corn, soybeans, sorghum, and sugar beets, and features strong versatility, excellent sowing results, and a high emergence rate.

[0004] When the air-suction seed meter operates, a high-speed fan generates negative pressure, which is transmitted to the vacuum chamber of the seed metering unit. As the seed disc rotates, the negative pressure in the vacuum chamber attracts the seeds, causing them to rotate with the disc. Once the seeds exit the vacuum chamber, they are no longer subject to negative pressure and fall into the seed furrow under their own weight or with the help of a seed scraper.

[0005] The air-suction precision seeding system achieves a high per-plant rate, eliminating the need for thinning and preventing multiple seedlings from competing for fertilizer and light in the same hole. The seeder unit utilizes a four-link contouring structure to ensure consistent seeding depth across rows. Individual rows can be individually shut off for convenient field operations. Each blower has been professionally tested. A fertilizer blower vent is included, allowing for optional fertilizer blowing depending on the application. A central air chamber mitigates losses caused by fluctuating wind pressure at the field's edge.

[0006] Due to the above characteristics, pneumatic precision seeders are the first choice for seeders. However, the hydraulic systems of domestic tractors currently do not support the rotation of the sowing motor while lifting the seeder, resulting in missed sowing in some extreme working conditions.

[0030] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the valve group of the automatic flow stabilizing system of the present invention includes: a safety valve 1, a diverter and stabilizing valve 2, a reversing valve 3, a converging bridge valve 4, an electrically controlled reversing valve 6 and a plurality of lockable reversing valves 5; the safety valve 1 and the diverter and stabilizing valve 2 are respectively connected to the main oil inlet P.

[0032] The diverter and stabilizing valve 2 has three oil circuits. The diverter and stabilizing valve 2 is directly connected to the main control oil ports of the reversing valve 3, the merging bridge valve 4, the electronically controlled reversing valve 6 and several lockable reversing valves 5 through the main control oil circuit 13; the diverter and stabilizing valve 2 bypasses the reversing valve 3 and is connected in parallel to the main control oil circuit 13 of the merging bridge valve 4 through the oil circuit 2 12 and the external oil pipe to form a confluence; the main control oil circuit 13 is then connected to the auxiliary control oil ports of the electronically controlled reversing valve 6 and several lockable reversing valves 5 through the auxiliary control oil port 45 of the merging bridge valve 4; and the diverter and stabilizing valve 2 is connected to the auxiliary control oil port of the reversing valve 3 after throttling through the oil circuit 1 11.

[0033] Among them, the auxiliary control oil port and main control oil port of the electric-controlled reversing valve 6 and the lockable reversing valve 5 are respectively connected to the oil cylinder in the lifting mechanism connected to the electric-controlled reversing valve 6 and the lockable reversing valve 5 to achieve precise control of the seeder, and the reversing valve 3 is connected to the hydraulic motor.

[0034] Specifically, if Figure 3 、 Figure 4 As shown, the diverter and steady flow valve 2 includes a valve body, a compensation valve core 27, a spring 29, a speed regulating port 21 and a plug screw 25; the valve body has a valve cavity, the compensation valve core 27 and the left side of the valve cavity form a left oil channel 26, the compensation valve core 27 and the right side of the valve cavity form a right oil channel 210, the spring 29 is arranged at the right end of the compensation valve core 27, and is responsible for providing a preset pressure value; the plug screw 25 is arranged at the left end of the compensation valve core 27, and is responsible for limiting the channel.

[0035] The valve body is equipped with an oil inlet 28 and an auxiliary control oil outlet 23, both communicating with the valve cavity. The oil inlet 28 is connected to the main oil inlet P. The auxiliary control oil outlet 23 is connected to the left oil passage 26, with the speed control port 21 located between them. The valve body also has a feedback port 22, which communicates with the auxiliary control oil outlet 23 and provides load feedback to both sides of the spool valve. This allows the oil output of the auxiliary control oil outlet 23 to be adjusted by changing the size of the speed control port 21.

[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, the merging bridge valve 4 has an oil channel 1 41, an oil channel 2 42, a main control oil port 43, and an auxiliary control oil port 45, which are interconnected. The main control oil port 43 is connected to the oil channel 1 41 through the oil channel 2 42, and the interface CI at the outer end of the oil channel 1 41 is connected to the interface CO on the diversion and stabilizing valve 2 through an oil pipe. At the same time, the interface CO is connected to the right oil channel 210.

[0037] When the hydraulic oil enters from the oil inlet 28, a part of it directly passes through the main control oil port of the reversing valve 3 and enters the main control oil port 43 of the merging bridge valve 4, forming the main control oil circuit 13; a part of the oil passes through the compensation valve core 27 and the left oil channel 26 into the speed regulating port 21, is adjusted to the preset flow rate, and then enters the auxiliary control oil port of the reversing valve 3 through the auxiliary control oil outlet 23 to participate in the operation of the motor.

[0038] The remaining flow in the valve chamber of the diverter and stabilizer valve 2 enters the right oil channel 210, which is then connected to the merging bridge valve 4 via an external oil pipe. This allows the oil in the upper oil channel 12 of the diverter and stabilizer valve 2 to be collected at the main control oil port of the merging bridge valve 4, merged with the main control oil channel 13, and then connected to the main control oil ports of the electronically controlled reversing valve 6 and the several lockable reversing valves 5 through the main control oil port 43. In addition, the auxiliary control oil port 45 is connected to the main control oil port 43, and a speed regulating and throttling mechanism is installed between the two. The outer end of the auxiliary control oil port 45 is connected to the auxiliary control oil ports of the electronically controlled reversing valve 6 and the several lockable reversing valves 5.

[0039] Among them, the auxiliary control oil port and the main control oil port of the electric control reversing valve 6 and the lockable reversing valve 5 are respectively connected to the oil cylinder in the lifting mechanism connected to the electric control reversing valve 6 and the lockable reversing valve 5, so as to realize precise control of the seeder.

[0040] like Figure 3 、 Figure 5 As shown, the diverter stabilizing flow valve 2 is provided with an oil return port 1 24, and the merging bridge valve 4 is provided with an oil return port 2 44. Similarly, the reversing valve 3, the electronically controlled reversing valve 6 and the plurality of lockable reversing valves 5 are all provided with oil return ports. The multiple oil return ports are connected in parallel with the oil return port 1 24 and the oil return port 2 44, and finally connected to the oil return oil circuit, thereby realizing oil return of the multiple reversing valves.

[0041] In addition, the locking reversing valve 5 is a four-position, six-way reversing valve. Ports A and B on the locking reversing valve 5 are connected to the oil cylinder of the lifting mechanism, respectively, to achieve lifting, lowering, and floating neutral locking. The handle automatically resets after the lifting position is reached. The electrically controlled reversing valve 6 is a three-position, four-way reversing valve. The two working oil circuits of the electrically controlled reversing valve 6 are also equipped with two-position, two-way solenoid reversing valves to achieve electrically controlled lifting, lowering, and floating neutral locking.

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, the oil inlet of the safety valve 1 is connected to the main oil inlet P, and the oil discharge port of the safety valve 1 is connected to the T port. The safety valve 1 mainly limits the maximum safety pressure.

[0043] The foregoing description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations of the present invention are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention are intended to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
