Description

[0002] Rice is one of the important food crops in China, widely planted in southern provinces and becoming an indispensable part of people's daily life. Hybrid rice has been widely promoted in southern provinces of China due to its significant advantages of strong tillering ability and high yield. The stable supply of hybrid rice plays a crucial role in ensuring food security.

[0003] The mechanization of rice planting in China mainly focuses on mechanized direct seeding and mechanized transplanting. Compared with mechanical transplanting, direct seeding has advantages such as low production cost, fewer operation processes, and labor saving, which can significantly reduce production costs and has become one of the key directions for agricultural technology promotion in recent years. The seed metering device is the core component of a rice direct seeder, and its operating performance ultimately affects the operating quality of the hill-drop planter. The pneumatic seed metering device can meet the precise seeding requirements of hybrid rice due to its advantages such as simple structure, high operating efficiency, and low damage to seeds.

[0004] However, there are still some technical problems with the existing pneumatic seed metering devices. On the one hand, the seed suction holes of the existing seed metering devices are prone to blockage, resulting in unstable seed suction and thus affecting the seeding accuracy. On the other hand, there is a lack of effective isolation design between the seed metering disc and the seed chamber housing, resulting in seeds being easily thrown out or stuck in the gaps when rotating and adsorbing on the seed metering disc, which is likely to cause seed damage. In addition, the seed filling rate of the pneumatic seed metering device is relatively low, and the seeds are easily affected by air flow fluctuations during the seed suction process, leading to uneven seed adsorption.

[0005] Therefore, how to improve the seed suction stability of the seed metering device and avoid the blockage of suction holes has become an urgent technical problem to be solved for the current precise pneumatic seed metering device for rice. Summary of the Invention

[0013] As a preference, an inner arc-shaped plate is arranged within the air chamber housing. The inner arc-shaped plate is a C-shaped ring structure, which divides the air chamber space into a negative pressure air chamber and a positive pressure air chamber. The inner side of the C-shaped ring structure is the negative pressure air chamber, and the outer side is the positive pressure air chamber. The positive pressure air chamber corresponds to the seed discharging area; a circle of installation grooves is arranged at the outer edge of the C-shaped ring structure, and a sealing rubber ring for ensuring the airtightness of the negative pressure air chamber is embedded in the installation groove.

[0016] A precise air-suction type rice seed metering method uses a precise air-suction type rice seed metering device. After rice seeds enter the filling area in the seed space from the seed supply mechanism, under the action of the negative pressure air chamber in the air chamber space, the seeds are adsorbed on the seed suction holes and rotate with the seed metering disc. After the seeds reach the seed discharging area, they fall under the action of the positive pressure air chamber in the air chamber space and are discharged from the seed outlet. The seeds stuck on the seed suction holes and unable to fall are brushed off through the combined action of the seed discharging brush and the anti-blocking brush and are discharged from the seed outlet.

[0017] A rice cultivation device is equipped with a precise air-suction type rice seed metering device.

[0018] The principle of the present invention is: An anti-blocking brush is added, and through the linkage of the seed discharging brush and the anti-blocking brush, the seeds stuck in the seed suction holes and unable to fall normally are swept down to avoid the blockage of the seed suction holes.

[0019] Optimal designs are carried out on the structure of the seed metering disc, the connection structure between the seed metering disc and the seed chamber housing, the sealing structure of the negative pressure air chamber, the quick assembly and disassembly structure of the seed metering shaft mechanism, and the quick assembly and disassembly structure of the whole seed metering device.

[0020] The present invention has the following advantages: 1. Effectively avoid the blockage of the seed suction holes.

[0021] When the seeds are adsorbed by the seed suction holes at certain angles, for example, when the tip positions of the seeds are adsorbed, the seeds will be clamped tightly in the seed suction holes and are difficult to be brushed off, and they cannot be brushed off only by the front seed discharging brush. The bristles of the seed discharging brush of the present invention keep in contact with the front side of the seed metering disc and sweep the seeds from the front side; the bristles of the anti-blocking brush pass through the groove and the seed suction hole and push the seeds from the rear side. Under the combined action of the two brushes, all the seeds can be swept down to avoid blockage.

[0022] 2. The rear side of the seed suction hole adopts a rectangular groove structure design, and the anti-blocking brush roller is closely attached to the rectangular groove through the pre-tightening force of the spring. When the seed metering disc rotates, the brush roller is driven to rotate synchronously through the frictional force, ensuring that the bristles pass through the seed suction hole from the back to the front, and applying sufficient thrust to the rear side of the seeds.

[0023] 3. The seed metering disc is provided with double rows of seed suction holes, and oval grooves are arranged centered on the seed suction holes, making the adsorption process more stable and reliable; a seed guiding and flow disturbing structure is arranged between the seed suction holes, which can continuously disturb the piled seeds, improve the fluidity of the seed population inside the seed metering device, and enhance the success rate of seed suction. The trapezoidal seed guiding and flow disturbing structure is more likely to break the piled state of the seeds.

[0024] 4. An isolation ring is arranged between the seed metering disc and the seed chamber housing, and is fixed by double-groove nesting, preventing the seeds from flying out or getting stuck in the gap during high-speed rotation, and at the same time preventing the seeds from being squeezed and damaged by the edge of the structure.

[0025] 5. The air chamber housing is divided into a negative pressure air chamber and a positive pressure air chamber by an inner arc-shaped plate, optimizing the air flow path and ensuring stable air flow. By setting an installation groove and installing a sealing rubber ring, the airtightness and negative pressure stability of the air chamber are effectively improved. The stable negative pressure environment enables the seeds to be stably adsorbed on the seed suction holes, preventing the seeds from falling off due to air flow fluctuations during rotation and ensuring accurate seed discharge.

[0026] 6. The seed metering shaft adopts a multi-section structure design, and key parts are supported and fixed by multiple limiting components such as positioning rings, backing plates, bearings, and positioning pins, reducing the vibration and misalignment of components.

[0027] 7. Both the seed metering shaft mechanism and the whole seed metering device adopt a quick disassembly and assembly design, facilitating the overhaul and maintenance of the seed metering device. Brief Description of the Drawings

[0041] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0042] Embodiment 1 A precise air-suction type rice seed metering device includes a seed metering device housing, a seed metering disc, a seed supply mechanism, and a seed metering shaft mechanism. The seed metering shaft mechanism drives the seed metering disc to rotate within the seed metering device housing.

[0045] A seed guiding and flow disturbing structure is arranged between circumferentially adjacent seed suction holes; the seed guiding and flow disturbing structure is an isosceles trapezoidal protrusion that is small on the inner side and large on the outer side; multiple isosceles trapezoidal protrusions are arranged in a circle and are circumferentially evenly distributed.

The metering disc is sleeved on the fourth shaft section. External threads are provided at the front end of the fourth shaft section, and the hexagonal flange nut is screwed into the external threads to press the metering disc and the backing plate tightly; the metering disc and the backing plate are locked through a positioning pin.

[0050] A rice precise air-suction metering method uses a rice precise air-suction metering device. Start the centrifugal fan and adjust the negative pressure to 32 kPa. After putting hybrid rice seeds into the seed supply mechanism, when the rice seeds enter the seed filling area in the seed space, under the action of the negative pressure air chamber in the air chamber space, the seeds are adsorbed on the seed suction holes and rotate with the metering disc. After the seeds reach the seed discharging area, they fall under the action of the positive pressure air chamber in the air chamber space and are discharged from the seed outlet.
