Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of plant protection machinery, and particularly to a broadcaster and method for a plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Background Art
[0002] A broadcaster for a plant protection UAV is a device that integrates the functions of material storage and broadcasting. It mainly consists of a material tank and a broadcasting device. The material tank is used to store materials such as seeds and fertilizers, and its capacity varies depending on different models to meet the operation requirements of farmland with different areas. The broadcasting device usually includes a high-speed rotating component, such as a centrifugal disk or a spiral throwing disk. During operation, the material reaches the broadcasting device from the material tank under the assistance of gravity or a simple pushing device. The broadcasting device rotates rapidly driven by an electric motor and uses centrifugal force to evenly broadcast the material around.
[0003] Existing broadcasters have many deficiencies. In terms of material handling, there is a lack of an effective mechanism for handling caked materials. Many agricultural materials, such as fertilizers and seeds, are prone to caking during storage or transportation, resulting in uneven and unsmooth outflow during broadcasting, affecting the broadcasting effect, causing uneven application of pesticides and fertilizers to crops, and affecting the growth quality and yield; in terms of broadcasting accuracy, most broadcasters are difficult to accurately control the spraying position and range of materials and cannot be flexibly adjusted according to different meteorological conditions (such as wind direction and wind speed), resulting in serious waste of materials. At the same time, the plant protection effect is greatly reduced, increasing the agricultural production cost and environmental burden; the blockage problem during the material conveying process is also a key factor that plagues the performance of the broadcaster. Due to the lack of a perfect anti-blocking design, once a blockage occurs, it will not only interrupt the broadcasting operation but also may damage the internal structure of the device, requiring a large amount of time for cleaning and maintenance, seriously reducing the efficiency of agricultural plant protection work.

[0022] 2. In the present invention, the sliding seat 1 drives the spraying pipe to knock open the closing plate, and then under the action of the air pump, the material is ejected under the combined action of the gas pressure and its own gravity, achieving the effect of imparting an initial momentum to the material. At the same time, after considering the wind direction and wind speed, the material can be ejected more accurately to the designated position, meeting the sowing requirements of different regions.
[0023] 3. Through the combined action of the anti-blocking component 1, anti-blocking component 2, and anti-blocking component 3, the present invention prevents and timely deals with the possible blockage situations during the stages of material transportation, during transportation, and before spraying, etc., achieving the effect of maintaining the stable operation of the sowing process, reducing the equipment failure maintenance time, and improving the operation efficiency.

The threaded rod 7 is threadedly connected to the slider 8 to drive the slider 8 to move horizontally, thereby adjusting the horizontal position of the steel wire 9. The steel wire 9 on the slider 8 is used to cut and stir the caked materials into small particles to ensure smooth outflow of the materials. The chute 10 on the outer wall of the power rod 5 guides and limits the movement of the steel wire 9 to ensure accurate movement and prevent equipment damage.
[0040] The spraying mechanism includes a curved electric slide rail 11, which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lower layer of the sowing disc 2. A first sliding seat 12 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the curved electric slide rail 11. A spraying pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the first sliding seat 12. One end of a feed pipe 14 is communicated with the outer wall of the spraying pipe 13. One end of an air inlet pipe 15 is communicated with the outer wall of the spraying pipe 13. A nozzle 16 is fixedly connected to one end of the spraying pipe 13. An elastic membrane 17 is fixedly connected to the inside of the nozzle 16.
[0041] Please refer to the appendix Figure 6 and the appendix Figure 8 , Specifically, in the spraying mechanism, the curved electric slide rail 11 is fixed to the inner wall of the lower layer of the sowing disc 2 to provide movement power and position adjustment track for subsequent components. Its curved structure can guide the first sliding seat 12 to drive the spraying pipe 13 to adjust the spraying angle to ensure accurate spraying of the materials. The first sliding seat 12 connects the spraying pipe 13 and the slide rail 11, and can drive the spraying pipe 13 to move to the specified position and maintain stability. The feed pipe 14 on the outer wall of the spraying pipe 13 is used to receive the materials from the storage bin 1. The air inlet pipe 15 introduces air under the action of the air pump 35 to accelerate the mixing of the materials and then spray them out from the nozzle 16. The elastic membrane 17 in the nozzle 16 deforms when the materials are sprayed to allow the materials to pass through, and quickly returns to close the nozzle 16 after spraying to prevent material leakage.
[0042] The anti-blocking mechanism includes a first anti-blocking component, a second anti-blocking component and a third anti-blocking component. The first anti-blocking component is slidably connected to the outer wall of the curved electric slide rail 11. The second anti-blocking component is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the sowing disc 2. The third anti-blocking component is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the upper layer of the sowing disc 2.
[0043] The first anti-blocking component includes a second sliding seat 18, which is slidably connected to the outer wall of the curved electric slide rail 11. An electric push rod 19 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the second sliding seat 18. A gasket 20 is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod 19.

[0045] Please refer to the attached Figure 4 and the attached Figure 5 and the attached Figure 7 Specifically, the anti-blocking mechanism prevents or deals with blockages at all stages of material transportation through the anti-blocking component one, the anti-blocking component two, and the anti-blocking component three. The anti-blocking component one slides on the outer wall of the curved electric slide rail 11 and can quickly take its place to deal with blockages when the injection pipe 13 is blocked. Its second sliding seat 18 carries the electric push rod 19 to move flexibly on the slide rail, ensuring the accurate position of the push rod. The electric push rod 19 pushes the push gasket 20, so that the gasket 20 extends into the injection pipe 13 to squeeze and push the blockage, restoring the material flow; the rotating ring two 24 in the anti-blocking component two drives the feed pipe 14 to rotate to deal with blockages in the feed pipe 14; the fan blade 26 in the anti-blocking component three rotates on the upper inner wall of the sowing disc 2 to turn and dredge the upper-layer material, preventing caking and accumulation from affecting the transportation and sowing effect of the feeding holes 30.
[0046] One end of a feeding pipe 27 is communicated with the outer wall of the storage bin 1, the other end of the feeding pipe 27 is communicated with the outer wall of the sowing disc 2, a spiral feeder 28 is rotatably connected inside the feeding pipe 27, the spiral feeder 28 is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting rod 25, one end of the outer wall of the connecting rod 25 is fixedly connected with one end of a transmission shaft 29, and the other end of the transmission shaft 29 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the spiral feeder 28.
[0047] The upper inner wall of the sower is provided with feeding holes 30, and the other end of the feeding pipe 14 is communicated with the outer wall of the feeding holes 30.
[0048] Please refer to the attached Figure 5 Specifically, the storage bin 1 is communicated with one end of the feeding pipe 27 to provide an output channel for the material to enter the sowing disc 2. The spiral feeder 28 in the feeding pipe 27 stably pushes the material by relying on its own spiral structure. It is connected with the connecting rod 25 to transmit its own power. The transmission shaft 29 receives the power of the spiral feeder 28 to ensure the power supply for subsequent work; the feeding holes 30 on the upper layer of the sower provide a downward channel for the material, and the material is transported to the injection pipe 13 through the communicated feeding pipe 14 to achieve precise sowing.
[0049] The side walls of the upper and lower layers of the broadcaster are both provided with discharge ports 31. A rotating rod 32 is fixedly connected inside the discharge port 31. A torsion spring 33 is installed on the outer wall of the rotating rod 32. One end of the torsion spring 33 is fixedly connected to a closing plate 34. An air pump 35 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the broadcaster. The input end of the air pump 35 communicates with the outside, and the output end of the air pump 35 communicates with the other end of the air inlet pipe 15.
[0050] Please refer to the attached Figure 4 and the attached Figure 9 , specifically, the discharge ports 31 on the side walls of the upper and lower layers of the broadcaster serve as channels for large-scale spreading of materials. The rotating rod 32 and the torsion spring 33 inside the discharge port 31 support the rotation of the closing plate 34 to realize the automatic opening and closing of the discharge port 31, ensuring anti-leakage when not working and discharging materials when working. The air pump 35 on the outer wall of the broadcaster inhales outside air, compresses it, and sends it into the injection pipe 13 through the air inlet pipe 15, mixing with the materials to enhance the injection effect and improve the spreading efficiency.
[0051] In addition, the present invention also provides a method for a broadcaster used in a plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle, including the following steps:
[0052] S1. The materials are stored in the storage bin 1. Before the spreading operation, if the materials are caked, the steel wire 9 slides in the chute 10 on the outer wall of the power rod 5 to perform operations such as cutting and stirring on the caked materials, dividing them into small particles;
[0053] S2. The materials are conveyed to the spreading disk 2 through the feeding pipe 27 connected to the outer wall of the storage bin 1. The rotation speed of the screw feeder 28 inside the feeding pipe 27 is controlled according to the type of materials to make the materials flow stably towards the spreading disk 2;
[0054] S3. After entering the spreading disk 2, if fine spreading is to be performed, the injection mechanism works. The feeding pipe 14 conveys the materials to the injection pipe 13. The sliding seat one 12 drives the injection pipe 13 to move and knock open the closing plate 34 of the discharge port 31. The air pump 35 presses the outside air into the injection pipe 13, so that the nozzle 16 sprays out; if fine spreading is not performed, the connecting rod 25 drives the fan blade 26 to rotate by the rotation of the screw feeder 28, so that the materials knock open the closing plate 34 for large-scale spreading;
[0055] S4. During the conveyance and injection of the materials, the anti-blocking mechanism plays a role. The anti-blocking component three turns over the upper-layer materials to avoid caking or blocking the feeding holes 30 and promotes the uniform entry of the materials into the feeding pipe 14; if the feeding pipe 14 is blocked, the anti-blocking component two shakes the feeding pipe 14 to relieve the blockage; if the injection pipe 13 is blocked, the electric push rod 19 pushes the gasket 20 to slide in the injection pipe 13 to squeeze and dredge the materials in the pipe;
[0056] S5. After the spreading operation is completed, stop the operation of each mechanism, check and maintain the broadcaster to prepare for the next operation.
[0057] Working principle: In actual use, the material is stored in the storage box 1. When it is necessary to carry out spreading operations, if the material is agglomerated, the refining mechanism inside the storage box 1 starts to operate, and the support rod 3 is fixed to the inner wall of the storage box 1. The electric telescopic rod 4 inside it is started, pushing the power rod 5 to move to the appropriate position, and then the motor 6 is started, driving the threaded rod 7 to rotate, so that multiple sliders 8 move along the outer wall of the threaded rod 7. Since the outer wall of the slider 8 is fixedly connected to the steel wire 9, and the steel wire 9 is slidably connected to the slide groove 10 on the outer wall of the power rod 5, the steel wire 9 will slide in the slide groove 10 with the movement of the slider 8, thereby cutting, stirring and other operations on the agglomerated material, dividing it into small particles, ensuring that the material can flow out of the storage box 1 smoothly, and preparing for the subsequent spreading process.
[0058] Subsequently, the material is transported to the sowing disc 2 through the delivery pipe 27 connected to the outer wall of the storage box 1. The screw feeder 28 inside the delivery pipe 27 is used as a transportation tool to transport the material. According to the type of material, the rotation speed of the screw feeder 28 is controlled to ensure that the material flows stably to the sowing disc 2 (for example, when finely sowing small-particle seeds, the rotation speed is about 500-1000 rpm; if it is a fertilizer with a larger sowing density and slightly larger particles, the rotation speed is increased to 1000-2000 rpm) to prevent the material from being blocked or flowing poorly in the delivery pipe 27.
[0059] After entering the sowing tray 2, if fine sowing is to be carried out, the spraying mechanism starts to work. The upper and lower side walls of the sower are both provided with discharge ports 31. Under normal circumstances, the closing plate 34 inside the discharge port 31 is in a closed state under the action of the torsion spring 33 to prevent material leakage. When spraying materials, the slide block one 12 drives the spray pipe 13 to move and knock open the closing plate 34, and the nozzle 16 extends out of the sowing tray 2. Since the curved electric slide rail 11 has a certain curvature, the angle of the nozzle 16 is indirectly controlled by controlling the travel distance of the slide block one 12. The feed pipe 14 conveys the material to the spray pipe 13, and at the same time, the air pump 35 presses the outside air into the spray pipe 13 through the air inlet pipe 15. Under the combined action of the gas pressure and the self-gravity of the material, the material is mixed and accelerated in the spray pipe 13 and finally sprayed out from the nozzle 16. The elastic membrane 17 inside the nozzle 16 can elastically deform and open when the material passes through, and automatically retract after the material passes through to ensure that the material will not leak. By providing an initial momentum to the material, the spraying mechanism can make the material be sprayed to the designated position more accurately after considering the wind direction and wind speed, meeting the sowing requirements of different regions (when the wind direction is the same as the direction of the initial momentum of the material, the wind speed will increase the resultant velocity of the material, making the material fly farther and exceeding the expected landing point; if the wind direction is opposite to the direction of the initial momentum of the material, the wind speed will decrease the resultant velocity of the material, making the material fall earlier and the landing point closer than expected; when there is an angle between the wind direction and the direction of the initial momentum of the material, the wind speed will change the movement trajectory of the material. The initial velocity of the material and the wind speed can be regarded as vectors, and the velocity vectors are synthesized according to the parallelogram rule to determine the new movement direction and velocity magnitude of the material, thereby affecting the final landing position of the material); after entering the sowing tray 2, if fine sowing is not carried out, the connecting rod 25 of the anti-blocking mechanism three uses the rotation of the screw feeder 28 to drive the fan blade 26 to rotate, so that the material knocks open the closing plate 34 for large-scale sowing.
[0060] During the material transmission and spraying process, the anti-blocking mechanism prevents the occurrence of blockage phenomena and deals with blockage phenomena. During the material transmission process, one end of the connecting rod 25 of the anti-blocking component three is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sowing tray 2, and the rotation of the fan blade 26 on its outer wall can not only turn over the materials on the upper layer to avoid material caking or blocking the feeding hole 30, but also promote the uniform entry of materials into the feed pipe 14; after the material enters the feed pipe 14, if the feed pipe 14 is blocked, the motor two 21 of the anti-blocking component two rotates reciprocally, driving the rotating ring one 22 to rotate reciprocally. The rotating ring one 22 drives the rotating ring two 24 to rotate synchronously through the transmission rod 23, and then shakes the feed pipe 14 to relieve the blockage phenomenon; the material enters the spray pipe 13 through the feed pipe 14. If the material is blocked in the spray pipe 13, the electric push rod 19 is started to push the gasket 20 to slide in the spray pipe 13, squeeze and dredge the material in the pipe, and clean the possible blockage to ensure the normal flow of the material.
[0061] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
