Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of new agricultural science yam planters, and particularly relates to a multifunctional integrated automated hanging ditch yam planting machine. Background Art

[0002] Under the background of the rapid progress of today's social economy, the new hanging ditch yam planting technology is currently in an active promotion process due to its significant advantages shown in the planting and harvesting links, as well as the aesthetic characteristics of the finished yams.

[0003] However, it cannot be ignored that during the actual operation of this planting technology, the labor consumption remains at an extremely high level. Starting from the basic link of erecting and supporting the plastic film, a large amount of manpower is required to carefully build it to ensure that the plastic film can be firmly covered to create a good environment for subsequent planting. When laying the plastic film, it needs to be carefully laid manually to ensure that the plastic film is flat and adheres to the ground. Any negligence may affect the heat preservation and moisture retention effects, and this process is time-consuming and laborious. Placing the seed segments also requires precise manual operation. The placement position and depth of each seed segment play a crucial role in the growth of yams, which undoubtedly increases the labor intensity. In the soil covering process, the soil needs to be evenly covered on the seed segments to ensure an appropriate thickness, consuming a large amount of manpower and time. When forming ridges, the soil is manually piled up shovel by shovel to form ridges, and the efficiency is extremely low. The fertilization link is not easy either. It is necessary to manually control the dosage of fertilizers and the evenness of spreading to ensure that the yams have sufficient nutrients for growth.

[0004] These processes not only have low efficiency, greatly increasing the labor cost, but also the entire planting process takes an extremely long time, seriously restricting the large-scale promotion of the new hanging ditch yam planting technology and the improvement of economic benefits. Summary of the Invention

[0011] The feeding mechanism comprises a feeding mechanism frame, the feeding mechanism frame comprises a yam bin, the yam bin is sequentially connected to a fixed push plate, a first push plate and a second push plate, and the second push plate is connected to a crawler.

[0012] A guide groove is arranged between the first push plate and the second push plate, the guide groove is fixed to the swing rod, the swing rod is hinged to the eccentric wheel crank, and the swing rod is linked by the rotation of the eccentric wheel crank, thereby driving the guide groove to reciprocate and drive the first push plate and the second push plate to move alternately.

[0013] The feeding mechanism comprises a feeding frame, which comprises a triangular-shaped conveying device composed of three sprocket groups. The conveying device is combined by hinges, and a plurality of yam feeding troughs are horizontally arranged on the outer surface of the hinges, and each yam feeding trough carries a yam segment.

[0014] The front soil covering mechanism is a mirror structure, including a mirror-symmetrical front gathering soil covering plate, each front gathering soil covering plate is telescopically connected to the second screw through a column, the second screw is fixed to the sixth gear, the sixth gear is coaxially transmitted with the sixth driving wheel, and the mirror-symmetrical front soil covering mechanism realizes synchronous movement through the second chain, and the second chain meshes with the sixth gear.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] The present invention provides a multifunctional integrated automatic hanging ditch yam planting machine, including a yam machine frame. A branch supporting mechanism and a front-end soil covering mechanism are arranged at the front end of the yam machine frame. A feeding mechanism, a fertilization mechanism and an irrigation mechanism are arranged behind the branch supporting mechanism.

This structure is small in size, and some mechanical structures can be lifted, and it can move freely in the field, is suitable for operating on various terrains, and is more friendly to small-area planting.

[0019] Furthermore, the four-bar linkage buffer mechanism realizes a closed-loop continuous specific circular arc trajectory, which requires little power and has a low speed. Embedding this mechanism between the branch rod bin and the feeding mechanism solves the problem that the feeding end is stuck due to the easy accumulation of branch rods at the feeding terminal during the process of supporting and feeding branch rods.

[0020] Furthermore, based on the specific requirements of yam planting, the film covering mechanism creates a precedent for the combined design of the film breaking process of the heating wire and the lifting of the film pressing wheel. By calculating the rotation period of the gear that drives the telescopic movement of the heating wire and the rotation period of one process of the lifting or lowering of the film pressing wheel, the telescopic movement of the heating wire is synchronously realized during the lifting process of the film pressing wheel, and both parts of the mechanism are in the preset optimal positions when the work stops, effectively reducing the load of the power source, and finally realizing the integration of the two processes of the heating wire extending to melt the ground film and retracting to the original position.

[0021] Furthermore, the feeding mechanism directly uses two-stage movable push plates to work, solves the problems of interference between the movements of the two push plates and transmission synchronization, and offsets the self-weight of the push plates to the greatest extent, so that the motor only needs to provide the driving force for the yam when driving, solving the problem that the self-weight of the push plate mechanism is large, and adding the load of the yam, resulting in a large burden on the motor.

[0054] Embodiment 2

[0055] A multi-functional integrated automated hanging-gutter yam planting machine has the following working principle:

[0056] 1. Process of laying branches:

[0057] The first step in the forward working stroke of the whole machine is to lay branches at a certain interval above the already dug trenches.

[0058] Before starting work, several branches are first placed in the branch bin 12. The motor drives the first gear 181, driving the bevel gear set 171 to rotate. The first gear 181 drives the second gear 182 to rotate through the first chain 182, so that the blanking runner 16 starts to work; the motor drives the four-bar linkage 14 to work;

[0059] The bottom plate of the branch bin 12 is set at an inclination angle to make the branches roll down by themselves. The horizontal area at the front end of the outlet of the branch bin 12 is for 1 to 3 branches to stay temporarily. The bevel gear set 171 is linked to the four-bar linkage 14, and the four-bar linkage 14 is used for buffering and anti-jamming transportation. The crank 141 of the four-bar linkage 14 makes a circular motion, driving the branch block 15 to swing through the rocker 142 and the rocker arm 143. The arc-shaped branch block 15 prevents the branches from rolling forward by themselves and at the same time fits the motion trajectory of the four-bar linkage 14. Finally, the branches at the front end of the outlet of the branch bin 12 will fall along the arc-shaped branch block 15 under the action of the four-bar linkage 14; the branches enter the closed branch guide groove 13 through the four-bar linkage 14, and are connected to the blanking runner 16 composed of the branch-holding arc groove 161 at the outlet. The branches at the outlet of the guide groove 14 will fall into the branch-holding arc groove 161 and rotate with the blanking runner 16. After rotating half a circle along the blanking runner 16, they fall directly above the trench. The components of each mechanism cooperate continuously to complete the function of lowering the branches coherently.

[0060] 2. Process of laying plastic film:

[0061] After the branches are laid at the front end of the vehicle, the film pressing wheel 283 at the rear end of the vehicle slowly descends, and the yam planter starts to move forward. The farmer fixes one end of the plastic film with soil in advance. As the vehicle moves forward, the plastic film roller 102 rotates to release the film due to the pulling force from the front and back, realizing the laying of the plastic film.

[0062] When laying the plastic film, the motor drives the first lead screw 23 to rotate forward, the hinge support 28 moves vertically downward, and drives the film pressing wheel 283 to work through the connecting rod.

[0063] After laying the plastic film, the motor drives the first lead screw 23 to rotate reversely, the film pressing wheel 283 slowly rises, drives the first driving wheel 24 to rotate synchronously, the first driving wheel 24 drives the third gear 25 to rotate, drives the first worm gear 26 to rotate through the first worm 27 (transmission ratio 1:20), the first worm gear 26 drives the first incomplete gear 224 to rotate intermittently through the aluminum transmission column, this gear forms an alternating meshing mechanism with the second incomplete gear 225, the incomplete gear set (224 / 225) meshes with the rack 223, generating a periodic bidirectional linear driving force, driving the heating wire support 29 to work, driving the heating wire to reciprocate through the heating wire support 29, and the power is transmitted between the two mirror-symmetrical film covering mechanisms 2 through the hinge sprockets to achieve synchronous movement.

[0064] 3. Adjustable-distance seeding process of automatic feeding:

[0065] Process of the alternating movement of the push plate:

[0066] The motor drives the third driving wheel 39 to rotate, forms an eccentric movement through the rotation of the eccentric wheel crank 333, the eccentric wheel crank 333 drives the swinging yam section to move upward, and at the same time the second push plate 34 moves downward to close the upper space; when the first push plate 33 moves downward and resets, the second push plate 34 moves upward to perform the pushing action, sending the yam section to the crawler 36, and the push plates cycle alternately to form continuous feeding.

[0067] Process of crawler conveying:

[0068] The motor drives the second driving wheel 381 to rotate, drives the fifth gear 38 to rotate through gear meshing, the fifth gear 38 drives the fourth gear 37 to rotate synchronously through the transmission chain, the fourth gear 37 drives the crawler 36 shaft to rotate, making the crawler 36 connected to the third push plate 35 form a continuous conveying surface, and the yam section in the third push plate 35 is smoothly conveyed to the next process by the moving crawler 36.

[0069] Preferably, four U-shaped beams are selected for assembly during the construction of this product, and they are encapsulated on the outside to reduce the frictional loss of the yam cuttings. Among them, the inclined groove size of each push plate can just accommodate one yam cutting. If the yam cuttings are stacked on the push plate, during the upward movement of the first push plate 34, the critical stable state of the stacked yam cuttings is destroyed, and the stacked yam cuttings fall back into the yam bin 31, thus ensuring that the yam cuttings fall row by row onto the conveyor belt each time it is lifted.

[0070] The highest point of the first push plate 34 is close to the lowest point of the yam bin 31. When stacking occurs, the height at which the yam cuttings fall back into the bin is relatively low, and it hardly causes damage to the yam cuttings.

[0071] 4. Connecting mechanism

[0072] After being divided, the yam cuttings fall in a row on the crawler 36, and enter the yam guide groove 41 one by one through the connecting structure 4. The connecting track uses a runner 43 to assist the yam cuttings to move forward and enter the yam feeding groove 56 of the feeding mechanism 5.

[0073] 5. Feeding mechanism

[0074] The motor drives the fifth driving wheel 58 to rotate, driving the sprocket group meshed with it to rotate, thereby driving three sprocket groups to rotate. The yam cuttings enter the yam feeding groove 56 through the opening at the top of the feeding frame 51. The yam feeding groove 56 outside the hinge 55 rotates with the hinge 55. Each yam feeding groove 56 carries a single yam segment. The hinge 55 drives the feeding groove 56 to continuously operate along a triangular path, forming a cyclic operation of loading - conveying - unloading, and the yam segments fall smoothly into the groove.

[0075] Preferably, by adjusting the rotation speed of the fourth driving wheel 58, different yam plant spacings can be achieved for planting.

[0076] 6. Soil covering process:

[0077] Soil covering process at the rear of the vehicle:

[0078] The motor drives the seventh driving wheel 77 of the reversing support 76, driving the coaxial seventh gear 78 to rotate. The seventh gear 78 drives the second worm 74 to rotate, converting the horizontal axial rotation into the vertical axial rotation of the second worm 74. The second worm 74 drives the second worm gear 75 to rotate, achieving torque amplification and motion direction conversion through the second worm and worm gear. The axis of the second worm gear 75 is hinged with the parallelogram soil covering connecting rod 73. The parallelogram soil covering connecting rod 73 makes a translational motion under the drive of the second worm gear 75, thereby driving the translation of the moving part 71. The soil covering plate 72 generates an inclination adaptive rotation for soil covering along with the translation of the moving part 71.

[0079] Soil covering process in front of the vehicle:

[0080] When the yam planter moves backward, the motor drives the sixth driving wheel 64 to rotate. Through gear meshing, the sixth gear 65 is driven to rotate synchronously. The sixth gear 65 drives the right-side symmetric gears through the second chain 66, forming synchronous rotation of bilateral gears. The sixth gear 65 meshes with the thread of the lead screw slider 63, converting the rotational motion into a linear motion. The bilateral lead screw sliders 63 move at a constant speed in opposite directions under the mirror-symmetric layout, driving the left and right front-side converging soil covering plates 61 to perform synchronous linear lifting and lowering. When the front-side converging soil covering plate 61 descends, the triangular front limit marker 62 contacts the ground to form a positioning reference; the bilateral front-side converging soil covering plates 61 are in a V-shaped converging posture, pushing the soil towards the crop roots in a directional manner to achieve ridge furrow soil covering. When lifted, they are separated from the soil layer and maintain a stable height through the self-locking property of the lead screw.

[0081] 7. Irrigation and fertilization process:

[0082] Before working, a certain amount of granular fertilizer is added to the fertilizer bin 81 fixed on the vehicle. When starting to work, the water in the water tank mechanism 9 is sprayed for irrigation through the pressure of the pump; the motor drives the fertilizer application runner 82 by driving the eighth driving wheel 84. Under the centrifugal force of the fertilizer application runner 82, the originally blocked granular fertilizer flies outwards and is sprinkled onto the ground through the gap of the pulled-out chassis 85 to complete fertilization. When the driving motor stops working finally, the remaining granular fertilizer will automatically be blocked on the fertilizer application mechanism chassis 85, thus avoiding the scattering of granular fertilizer.

[0083] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: the specific implementation manners of the present invention can still be modified or equivalently replaced, and any modification or equivalent replacement that does not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention shall be covered by the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
