[0024] Preferably, the seeding turntable includes a centrifugal wheel disc 2 and a centrifugal rotor 3 installed on the top of the centrifugal wheel disc 2;

[0025] Specifically, the angle compensation mechanism 4 includes a left connecting block 7, a right connecting block 8 and a rotating wheel 5 for being installed on the seed box 1. Preferably, the rotating wheel 5 is installed at the seed outlet of the seed box 1 through a cross-shaped bracket, which not only realizes the connection between the rotating wheel 5 and the seed box 1, but also does not affect the seeds in the seed box 1. The output of the seeds is not affected. A center maintaining block 10 is hinged between the left connecting block 7 and the right connecting block 8. The center maintaining block 10 is hinged to the left connecting block 7 and the right connecting block 8 through a laterally arranged hinge shaft, which is convenient for relative forward and backward rotation with the left connecting block 7 and the right connecting block 8. A vertically arranged slide rod 6 is hinged to the center maintaining block 10, and the slide rod 6 is hinged to the center maintaining block 10 through a longitudinally arranged hinge shaft, which is convenient for relative left and right swinging with the center maintaining block 10. The top of the slide rod 6 is rotatably connected to the rotating wheel 5, which is convenient for the slide rod 6 and the rotating wheel 5 to rotate relative to each other.

[0026] A slide groove engaging block 9 is also slidably mounted on the slide groove rod 6, and a vertical slide groove cooperating with the slide groove engaging block 9 is provided on the slide groove rod 6, so that the slide groove engaging block 9 can slide vertically along the vertical slide groove. A right wheel rotary connector 13 is hinged on the slide groove engaging block 9, and the right wheel rotary connector 13 is hinged with the slide groove engaging block 9 through a horizontally arranged hinge shaft, so that it can rotate relative to the slide groove engaging block 9 forward and backward. A spring retaining block 14 is hinged on the right wheel rotary connector 13, and the spring retaining block 14 is hinged with the right wheel rotary connector 13 through a longitudinally arranged hinge shaft, so that it can rotate relative to the right wheel rotary connector 13 left and right. A left-wheel rotating connector 11 is hinged on the left connecting block 7, and the left-wheel rotating connector 11 is hinged to the left connecting block 7 through a horizontally arranged hinge shaft, so as to facilitate relative forward and backward rotation with the left connecting block 7. A connecting column 12 is hinged on the left-wheel rotating connector 11, and the connecting column 12 is hinged to the left-wheel rotating connector 11 through a longitudinally arranged hinge shaft, so as to facilitate relative left and right rotation with the left-wheel rotating connector 11.

[0029] The working principle of the angle compensation sowing device for drones provided by the present invention is as follows: seeds are stored in a seed box 1, which is mounted on a drone. When the drone is sowing, the seeds fall from the seed box 1 until they fall onto the centrifugal wheel 2 and are knocked out by the centrifugal wheel 3, thereby realizing the sowing operation.

[0030] During the acceleration / deceleration process of the drone, the seeding disc can achieve angle compensation through gravity. When the drone changes speed left / right laterally, the slide rod 6 can rotate relative to the seed box 1 through the rotary wheel 5, the center maintenance block 10 can rotate relative to the slide rod 6, and the left-wheel rotating connector 11 and the right-wheel rotating connector 13 can rotate relative to the center maintenance block 10. At the same time, under the cooperation of the slide rod 6, the slide engaging block 9 and the spring 15, the angle compensation of the seeding disc can be maintained, so that the seeding disc always maintains a horizontal direction, which is conducive to the uniformity and accuracy of seeding.

[0031] When the UAV rotates in place, the seeding disc is kept relatively still by the rotating wheel 5. Under the action of the left-wheel rotating connector 11, the right-wheel rotating connector 13, the spring 15, the spring retaining block 14 and the connecting column 12, a certain buffering effect can be formed on the seeding disc regardless of any sudden change in speed.
