Description

Technical Field

The seeding driving mechanism includes a seeding driving motor 7 and a seeding transmission assembly; the seeding driving motor 7 is electrically connected to the controller of the direct seeder; the rotational speed of the pressing wheel 4 is detected in real time by the rotational speed sensor 5, and the rotational speed data is transmitted to the controller of the direct seeder. The controller of the direct seeder calculates the target rotational speed required for the seeding driving motor 7 based on the current hole spacing of the operation and the current real-time rotational speed, and generates a control command to adjust the real-time rotational speed of the seeding driving motor 7 to be equal to the target rotational speed.

[0026] Combined with Figure 1 - Figure 2 , the ditching mechanism, the pneumatic suction type seed metering device 6 and the soil covering mechanism are all arranged on the floating mounting plate 8, and the floating mounting plate 8 is arranged on the towing frame 1 through a four-bar linkage profiling structure 9. Profiling is achieved through the four-bar linkage profiling structure 9, and its floating function ensures that the pneumatic suction type seed metering device 6 is always parallel to the ridge surface, and also ensures that the ditching opener can normally contact the ridge surface and ditch normally when the ridge surface is not flat enough, thereby ensuring that the seeds fall into the ditch.

[0027] Combined with Figure 1 - Figure 2 , the ditching mechanism includes a circular knife ditching opener 10, and the circular knife ditching opener 10 is arranged below the floating mounting plate 8.

[0028] Combined with Figure 1 - Figure 2 , the ditching mechanism, the seeding mechanism and the soil covering mechanism are all provided with multiple groups, and are all arranged along the direction perpendicular to the forward direction. Further, multiple groups of seeding mechanisms share a seeding driving motor 7; the seeding transmission assembly includes a transmission shaft and a chain assembly. The transmission shaft is rotatably connected to the towing frame 1; the chain assembly is provided with multiple groups and each group includes a first chain assembly 11 and a second chain assembly 12. The first chain assembly 11 is connected between the seeding driving motor 7 and the transmission shaft, and the second chain assembly 12 is connected between the transmission shaft and the rotating shaft of the pneumatic suction type seed metering device 6. Through the above structure, sharing a seeding driving motor 7 drives multiple pneumatic suction type seed metering devices 6 to perform seeding at the same time, simplifies the structure, and reduces the cost.

[0029] Combined with Figure 1 - Figure 2, the seeding mechanism further includes a positive pressure mechanism and a negative pressure mechanism. The positive pressure mechanism includes a positive pressure blower 13, a positive pressure diverter 14, and a positive pressure pipeline (not shown in the figure).

Multiple connection holes are provided on both the soil covering frame 18 and the floating mounting plate 8. The angle of the soil covering wheel 17 is adjusted through the cooperation of different threaded holes, thereby realizing the adjustment of the seeding depth.

[0031] Combined with Figure 1 - Figure 2 , the working principle of the above-mentioned suspended air-suction type vegetable precision hill-drop direct seeder is as follows:

[0032] Connect the traction frame 1 to the tractor through pins and bolts, and connect the speed increaser 2 to the PTO shaft of the tractor. Input the required seeding hole spacing through the PLC control panel, and then lower the direct seeder until the press wheel 4 presses on the ridge surface, and then start the seeding operation.

[0033] During the operation, the PTO shaft of the tractor outputs sufficient rotational speed to the speed increaser 2, and the speed increaser 2 then drives the generator 3 to generate electricity through a pulley to supply power to the control circuit and small battery of the entire direct seeder, realizing long-term operation without the need for a large-weight battery.

[0034] The press wheel 4 at the front levels and loosens the ridge surface soil, and at the same time drives the speed sensor 5 to detect the forward speed of the press wheel 4, and feeds it back to the PLC controller, thereby controlling the rotational speed of the seeding drive motor 7, that is, controlling the seeding speed of the air-suction type seed metering device 6, realizing that the seeding speed is synchronized with the forward speed of the direct seeder, and stabilizing the hole spacing.

[0035] During the forward movement, profiling is achieved through a parallelogram linkage. Its floating function ensures that the seed metering device is always parallel to the ridge surface, and also ensures that the furrow opener can make normal contact with the ridge surface and open furrows even when the ridge surface is not flat enough, thereby ensuring that the seeds fall into the furrows. Then, the soil covering wheel 17 at the rear end of the seeding unit covers the seeds with soil to reach the required seeding depth.

[0036] During the operation of the direct seeder, the seed plates in the ten seed metering devices rotate. When passing through the negative pressure area, the seeds are adsorbed on the seed plates. When transported to the positive pressure area, the seeds are blown out of the seed plates, and under the action of gravity, the seeds fall into the furrow opener. Then, the soil covering wheel 17 at the back covers the seeds with soil to achieve seeding.

[0037] Specifically, the PLC controller detects the forward speed of the press wheel 4 through an encoder (speed sensor 5), and then controls the working speed of the seeding drive motor 7 through relevant calculations:

[0038] (1) Read and calculate the encoder pulse speed RPM 测 (r / min):

[0039]

[0040] Where: PPR: Encoder resolution; T: Sampling time, and the sampling time needs to be greater than the PLC scan cycle; Pulse: Number of pulses emitted by the encoder within the sampling time.

[0041] (2) Then calculate the forward speed of the implement, that is, the linear speed V (m / s) of the press wheel 4 rotation:

[0042]

[0043] Where: D: Diameter (m) of the press wheel 4.

[0044] (3) Calculate the proportionality coefficient K p :

[0045] K p = K1 / K2

[0046]

[0047] Where: K1: Reduction ratio of the motor matching reducer, such as 20; K2: Chain wheel transmission ratio, the transmission ratio of the chain wheel on the motor, the chain wheel on the transmission shaft, and the chain wheel on the seed plate; D1: Number of teeth of the chain wheel on the motor; D 21 : Number of teeth of the chain wheel on the seeding transmission shaft connected to the motor chain wheel; D 22 : Number of teeth of the chain wheel on the seeding transmission shaft connected to the seed plate chain wheel; D3: Number of teeth of the seed plate drive chain wheel.

[0048] (4) Calculate the required motor speed RPM 电(r / min):

[0049]

[0050] Wherein: S: required seeding row spacing (number / m), input on the PLC panel; n: number of seeds sown in one revolution of the seed metering disc (number / r); the number of pulses output by the PLC controls the servo motor:

[0051] Output pulses = RPM 电 ×K3

[0052] Wherein: K3: resolution of the servo motor, i.e., how many pulses per revolution.

[0053] The above is a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited by the above content. Any other changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be equivalent replacement methods and are all included in the protection scope of the present invention.
