Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of agricultural machinery, in particular to a creeping soil turning device. Background Art
[0002] Before planting crops, it is often necessary to turn the soil over to make it looser, enhance soil aeration, remove weeds and pests, and benefit the growth of crops.
[0003] Traditional wheeled or tracked tillers can cause soil compaction (especially in the subsoil) due to concentrated loads when traveling in the field. This damages the soil's pore structure and the straw on the surface, hindering root growth and water penetration. Furthermore, they are prone to slipping and getting stuck in wet, uneven, or stubble-covered fields, impacting operational efficiency.
[0004] When tilling the soil, soil-turning equipment often encounters stones on the soil surface. When the stones are too large, they will cause grinding and bending of the blades, reducing the service life of the blades and affecting the tilling effect. When the stones are small, when the blades of the soil-turning equipment cut into the soil, these stones are easily drawn into them and buried in the soil as the tilling action deepens, causing the stones to occupy the effective space in the soil, reducing the porosity of the soil, thereby affecting the air permeability and water permeability of the soil, which is not conducive to crop planting.
[0005] Many existing soil turning devices can only dig soil to a single depth. Some improved equipment can adjust the swing angle of the digging head to dig soil layers of different depths. However, due to the high viscosity and humidity between the turned soil layers, the soil layers are unevenly turned, which may lead to inconsistent thickness of soil covering the seeds, affecting the germination rate of the seeds and the uniformity of the emergence of the seedlings.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this application are as follows: 1. The peristaltic crawling mechanism of this application adopts a unique peristaltic component and connection method, which can move flexibly in fields with different terrains, reduce soil compaction, and adapt to complex terrains such as mountains and hills. The movement process is smooth and has little impact on the surrounding environment. The peristaltic crawling mechanism is inspired by caterpillars and loopers in nature. It controls the movement of multiple links through a motor to achieve peristaltic crawling on the ground, and disperses the pressure of the body on the soil through flexible movement, simulating the progressive contact between the organism and the soil, reducing local compaction, and maintaining the looseness and air permeability of the soil.
[0018] 2. Traditional planting machinery relies on wheels or tracks, making it difficult to maneuver in irregular terrain such as terraces, slopes, orchards, or greenhouses. However, this new machine adapts to complex terrain, using wave-like peristalsis to achieve continuous, stable, and controllable movement in various complex terrains. In clay soils, traditional machinery is prone to soil adhesion, resulting in reduced efficiency. However, the wave-like "peel-and-propel" mechanism reduces adhesion and significantly improves operating efficiency.
[0019] 3. Wave-like peristalsis creates multi-directional, multi-layered soil shear forces through alternating pressure and release in segments. This discontinuous dynamic disturbance effectively breaks up soil compaction while minimizing damage to deeper soil structures. Wave-like motion improves soil crushing uniformity through randomized stress distribution. Furthermore, the peristaltic mechanism's "arching-contraction" action simultaneously loosens the surface layer and crushes the subsurface, avoiding the problem of "over-crushing the surface while not loosening the deeper layers" often associated with conventional machinery due to fixed depth.
[0020] 4. This application realizes the picking up of stones through the stone picking mechanism, avoids direct impact on the rotary tiller, prolongs the life of the rotary tiller, and improves the soil porosity; after picking up, the soil is tilled, and the rotary tiller moves up and down during operation to realize tillage of soil at different depths, improves the uniformity of soil mixing after tillage, and adapts to the needs of different crops; a watering mechanism is set behind the rotary tiller, and the soil is immediately moistened by water mist during the tillage operation, which reduces soil scattering, suppresses dust generation, and moistens the surface soil. Traditional equipment requires three operations. This device integrates stone picking, tillage, and watering. It can complete multiple soil treatment tasks in one operation, reduce the number of times the equipment enters the ground, reduce the risk of soil compaction, reduce energy consumption, and improve operation efficiency, providing a one-stop solution from soil improvement to planting preparation for sustainable agriculture.
[0021] 5. The stone-picking mechanism, through the coordination of a turning mechanism, a horizontal linear module, and a gripping manipulator, can accurately grab stones from the soil and transport them to the stone storage bin via a conveyor belt, effectively removing the stones from the soil and providing good conditions for subsequent tilling and planting operations. The special structural design of the gripping manipulator enhances its stone-picking ability and improves stone-picking efficiency.
[0022] 6. The support plate and connecting plate of the tillage mechanism are at a specific angle. Combined with the lifting mechanism and the rotary tiller, the soil can be tilled with adjustable depth, making the soil loose and uniform, improving the soil structure, and being conducive to the growth of crop roots.
[0023] 7. The water spray mechanism uses a combination of a water storage tank, a water pump, and a high-pressure atomizing nozzle to evenly spray water on the plowed soil, ensuring the appropriate soil moisture and providing good moisture conditions for crop seed germination and growth. The electromagnetic switch valve is set to facilitate the control of the water spray start and stop and the water volume. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Then the flip motor 113 is started, and the flip motor 113 drives the receiving plate 114 to flip through the first driving gear 116 and the first driven gear 117, and then drives the horizontal moving linear module 115 to flip, thereby driving the grabbing manipulator to flip, so that the grabbing manipulator flips until the stone is above the conveyor belt 112, and then the cylinder 103 pushes the swing frame 101 to open, the two stone clamping plates 105 release the stone, and the stone falls to the conveyor belt 112, and the conveyor belt 112 transports the stone to the stone storage bin 111, completing the stone picking operation.
[0056] After the stone removal operation is complete, the control unit controls the lifting motor 411 based on soil conditions, adjusting the height of the blade mounting plate 405 to ensure that the rotary tiller 407 reaches the appropriate tilling depth. The tilling motor 412 is activated, rotating the rotary tiller 407 and tilling the soil. The creeping mechanism 2 slowly moves to ensure continuous tilling.
[0057] When the tillage mechanism 4 is turning the soil, the control unit opens the electromagnetic switch valve, and the water pump sends the water in the water storage tank 501 to the high-pressure atomizing nozzle through the water supply pipe to spray water on the plowed soil to moisten it and prevent soil dust, thus completing the entire operation process.
[0058] In addition, the stone picking mechanism 1, soil turning mechanism 4 and water spraying mechanism 5 of the present application can operate simultaneously or independently.
[0059] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
