[0013] As a further scheme of the present application: the suction hole is arranged in a trumpet shape, and the end of the plugging head is provided with a chamfer.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following advantages:

[0015] (1) A plurality of groups of suction holes with different sizes are arranged on the seed metering disc, the suction holes with different sizes are arranged concentrically, and a corresponding air suction adjusting mechanism is arranged on the air suction disc corresponding to each group of suction holes. When a group of suction holes with a certain size is needed to be used, all the other groups of suction holes are closed by the air suction adjusting mechanism, so that the corresponding suction holes are left to adsorb the seeds of the corresponding size, and the seeds with multiple sizes are adapted for seed metering.

[0016] (2) A plurality of groups of suction holes with different sizes are arranged on the seed metering disc, and a plurality of groups of suction holes are arranged on the air suction disc. When a group of suction holes with a certain size is needed to be used, the other groups of suction holes need to be closed to ensure that only the corresponding group of suction holes adsorbs the seeds. A plurality of plugging rings are arranged on the back of the air suction disc, a plugging head is arranged on the position corresponding to the suction hole on the plugging ring, and the plugging ring keeps the plugging head matched with the suction hole under the action of the connecting slide column and the return spring, so as to close the suction hole and realize the adaptive seed metering of different sizes.

[0017] (3) The suction hole may adsorb multiple seeds. In order to remove the excess seeds from the suction hole, a seed cleaning mechanism is set up. When the seed dispensing tray carries the seeds and rotates, it will interfere with the seeds that are off the suction hole and close to the seed cleaning scraper when they come into contact with each other. This will cause the seeds to fall off the suction hole and fall off. Seeds that are closer to the suction hole will be completely adsorbed by the suction hole under the action of negative pressure.

[0018] (4) Since the height of suction holes of different sizes is different, in order to adapt to the mutual adsorption between seeds and suction holes, the lifting motor drives the lifting plate, the matching block and the telescopic film to move up and down, so that the seeds above the tray can reach the corresponding suction hole and avoid seed retention in the seed support area.

[0030] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, an electrically controlled pneumatic suction seed metering device suitable for pelleted millet sowing includes a suction chamber shell 1 and a seed metering device rear cover 2. A seed box 3 is provided on the seed metering device rear cover 2. A negative pressure port 10 is provided on the suction chamber shell 1. A suction cup 11 is fixedly installed inside the suction chamber shell 1. A seed metering disc 8 is rotatably installed inside the seed metering device rear cover 2. A drive shaft 7 is connected to the center of the seed metering disc 8. The drive shaft 7 passes through the center of the seed metering device rear cover 2 and is connected to a transmission mechanism. A suction adjustment mechanism 9 is provided between the suction cup 11 and the suction chamber shell 1. Multiple sets of suction cups of various sizes are concentrically distributed in a ring on the seed metering disc 8. The air suction cup 11 is provided with an air extraction port 110 corresponding to the suction hole 80. The seed metering plate 8 is fitted with the air suction cup 11. The outer shell of the air suction chamber 1 is fixedly connected to the rear cover 2 of the seed metering device by bolts. The center of the air suction cup 11 is sealed to the outer shell of the air suction chamber 1 by a sealing bolt 112 and a gasket 12. Sealing rubber rings are provided on both sides of the gasket 12 between the air suction cup 11 and the outer shell of the air suction chamber 1, respectively. The air suction cup 11 is provided with a seed dropping area 113. When the seed metering plate 8 reaches the seed dropping area 113, the seeds are removed from the suction hole 80 and fall into the seed inlet 6 at the bottom of the rear cover 2 of the seed metering device.

[0032] Specifically, in order to adapt to the seed of multiple sizes to be discharged, multiple groups of suction holes 80 of different sizes are arranged on the seed plate 8, and the suction holes 80 of different sizes are arranged concentrically. The air suction adjusting mechanism 9 is arranged on the air suction plate 11 corresponding to each group of suction ports 110. When a certain size of suction port 110 is needed, the air suction adjusting mechanism 9 is combined to close all the suction ports 110 of other sizes, so that the corresponding suction holes 80 of other sizes on the seed plate 8 are closed, and the corresponding suction holes 80 are left to adsorb the seeds of the corresponding size. The seeds are adsorbed and rotated on the seed plate 8, and when they rotate to the seed dropping area 113 of the air suction plate 11, the suction holes 80 and the seed dropping area 113 are mutually attached and the negative pressure disappears, so that the seeds in the suction holes 80 are separated from the suction holes 80 and fall through the seed dropping port 6.

[0033] Further, as shown in Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 , the air suction adjusting mechanism 9 includes multiple groups of blocking rings 90 arranged concentrically on the air suction plate 11. The blocking rings 90 are arranged corresponding to the suction ports 110 on the air suction plate 11. The blocking rings 90 are provided with blocking heads 91 matched with the suction ports 110. The blocking rings 90 are movably mounted between the air suction plate 11. A driving assembly is arranged between the blocking rings 90 and the air suction plate 11. The driving assembly drives the blocking rings 90 to move away from the air suction plate 11 and makes the blocking heads 91 separate from the suction ports 110. The driving assembly includes push cylinders 92 arranged on the outer circle of the air suction plate 11. The push cylinders 92 are connected with rubber rods 94. The air suction plate 11 is provided with a guide frame 93 corresponding to the position of the rubber rod 94. The guide frame 93 controls the rubber rod 94 to point to the center of the air suction plate 11. The blocking rings 90 are inserted with connecting slide columns 911. The connecting slide columns 911 are fixedly connected with the air suction plate 11. A return spring 912 is arranged between the blocking rings 90 and the connecting slide columns 911. The blocking rings 90 are provided with inclined blocks 96. The air suction plate 11 is slidably mounted with a linkage rod 95 along the radial direction. The linkage rod 95 is provided with a vertical rod 98 corresponding to the position of the inclined block 96. A matching sleeve 99 is slidably and pre-tightly mounted on the vertical rod 98. The matching sleeve 99 is connected with a matching wedge block 97. The matching wedge block 97 is matched with the inclined surface of the inclined block 96. The side of the matching sleeve 99 is provided with an electromagnetic pin 910. The matching sleeve 99 is locked with the vertical rod 98 through the electromagnetic pin 910. The end of the rubber rod 94 is connected with the outermost vertical rod 98.

[0034] Specifically, in order to adapt to different sizes of seeds, a plurality of groups of suction holes 80 of different sizes are arranged on the seed plate 8, and a plurality of groups of air suction ports 110 are arranged on the air suction plate 11 correspondingly. When a suction hole 80 of a certain size is needed, other size suction holes 80 need to be closed to ensure that only the corresponding size suction hole 80 can adsorb the seeds. A plurality of groups of blocking rings 90 are arranged on the back of the air suction plate 11 correspondingly. The part of the blocking ring 90 corresponding to the air suction port 110 is provided with a blocking head 91. The blocking ring 90 is kept in cooperation with the air suction port 110 under the action of the connecting slide column 911 and the return spring 912, so as to close the air suction port 110.

[0035] When the seed needs to be adsorbed, the rubber rod 94 is controlled to be elongated by the push cylinder 92. The matching sleeve 99 at the part of the blocking ring 90 is locked between the electromagnetic pin 910 and the vertical rod 98. At this time, when the rubber rod 94 drives the vertical rod 98 to move, the inclined block 96 is pushed under the action of the matching wedge block 97, so as to push the blocking ring 90 away from the air suction plate 11, thereby driving the blocking head 91 to separate from the air suction port 110 of the corresponding size, and then making the air suction plate 11 suck the air suction hole 80 of the corresponding size on the seed plate 8. At this time, the rotating seed plate 8 will suck the seeds at the part of the air suction hole 80 of the corresponding size, rotate together with the seed plate 8, and finally separate from the air suction hole 80 when reaching the seed dropping area 113.

[0036] Further, as shown in Figure 8 , the air suction plate 11 is provided with an arc-shaped through slot 111 between the air suction ports 110 of the same size. When the air suction plate 11 and the seed plate 8 are matched, the same size suction hole 80 is adsorbed by the negative pressure port 10 and the arc-shaped through slot 111, and rotates together with the seed plate 8.

[0037] Specifically, in order to ensure that the air suction port 110 always forms a negative pressure effect on the rotating air suction hole 80 of the seed plate 8, the arc-shaped through slot 111 is arranged on the side of the air suction port 110 facing the seed plate 8. The air suction hole 80 is always communicated with the arc-shaped through slot 111 during the rotation of the seed plate 8, so as to continuously adsorb the adsorbed seeds.

[0038] Further, as shown in Figure 4 , Figure 5 , the seed cleaner 5 is arranged in the seed plate rear cover 2. The seed cleaner 5 includes a seed cleaning scraper 58 arranged in an arc shape corresponding to the same size air suction hole 80. The seed cleaning scraper 58 is arranged on the surface of the seed plate 8. The seed cleaning scraper 58 is made of rubber. The seed cleaning scraper 58 is connected with a matching driving assembly. The seed cleaning scraper 58 removes the excess seeds through the matching driving assembly suitable for different sizes of air suction holes 80.

[0039] Specifically, the suction hole 80 can adsorb multiple seeds. In order to remove the excess seeds from the suction hole 80, the seed cleaning mechanism 5 is arranged. When the seed plate 8 carrying the seeds rotates and touches the arc-shaped seed cleaning scraper 58, the seed cleaning scraper 58 interferes with the seeds deviating from the suction hole 80 and close to the seed cleaning scraper 58, so that the seeds deviate from the suction hole 80 and fall off. The seeds close to the suction hole 80 are completely adsorbed by the suction hole 80 under the action of negative pressure.

[0040] Further, as shown in Figure 5 , the matching drive assembly includes a drive shell 50 arranged at the center of the seed meter rear cover 2. The drive shell 50 is provided with a drive motor 51. The drive motor 51 is connected with a drive gear 53. The drive shell 50 is rotatably installed with a gear disc 52. A plurality of drive screws 54 are rotatably installed on the side wall of the drive shell 50. One end of the drive screw 54 located in the drive shell 50 is connected with a driven gear 55. The driven gear 55 and the gear disc 52 are in meshing relationship. The part corresponding to the drive screw 54 in the seed meter rear cover 2 is provided with a guide sliding groove 59. The guide sliding groove 59 is slidably connected with a connecting rod 57. The connecting rod 57 is connected with a matching sliding block 56. The matching sliding block 56 and the connecting rod 57 are in threaded connection with the drive screw 54. The seed cleaning scraper 58 is slidably connected with the end of the connecting rod 57.

[0041] Specifically, in order to adapt to the seed cleaning operation of different size suction holes 80, the drive motor 51 and the gear disc 52, the drive gear 53, the driven gear 55 drive a plurality of drive screws 54 to rotate, thereby synchronously controlling a plurality of matching sliding blocks 56 and connecting rods 57 to move. At this time, the seed cleaning scraper 58 at the end of the connecting rod 57 will adjust the radius of the seed cleaning scraper 58 itself under the limiting action of the connecting rod 57, so as to adapt to the seed cleaning operation of the suction holes 80 at different positions.

[0042] Further, as shown in Figure 6 , Figure 7 , the part corresponding to the seed tank 3 of the seed meter rear cover 2 is provided with a feeding port 22. The bottom of the seed meter rear cover 2 is provided with a supporting plate 13 on one side of the feeding port 22. The supporting plate 13 is provided with a vertical partition plate 130. The supporting plate 13 and the partition plate 130 form a seed supporting area. The supporting plate 13 is provided with a lifting plate 23. The supporting plate 13 and the lifting plate 23 are provided with a lifting motor 24. One end of the lifting plate 23 towards the edge of the seed meter rear cover 2 is connected with a matching block 26. The matching block 26 is inserted with the lifting plate 23 through the insertion rod 27. The insertion rod 27 is sleeved with a supporting spring 28. The upper end between the lifting plate 23 and the matching block 26 is provided with a stretchable film 25.

[0043] Specifically, since the heights of the different sizes of the suction holes 80 are different, in order to adapt to the mutual adsorption between the seeds and the suction holes 80, the lifting motor 24 drives the lifting plate 23, the matching block 26 and the telescopic film 25 to move up and down, so that the seeds above the supporting plate 13 can reach the positions of the corresponding suction holes 80, and the seed retention in the seed supporting area is avoided.

[0044] Further, as shown in Figure 8 、 Figure 9 , the suction hole 80 is arranged in a trumpet shape, and the end of the plugging head 91 is provided with a chamfer.

[0045] Specifically, the trumpet-shaped suction hole 80 is more suitable for the adsorption of the seeds, and the chamfer of the plugging head 91 facilitates the mutual docking of the plugging head 91 and the air suction port 110 to complete the plugging operation.

[0046] The working principle of the embodiment of the application is as follows:

[0047] As shown in Figures 1-10As shown, in order to adapt to the seed of various sizes, a plurality of groups of suction holes 80 of different sizes are arranged on the seed plate 8, and the suction holes 80 of different sizes are arranged concentrically. The air suction adjusting mechanism 9 is arranged on the air suction plate 11 corresponding to each group of air suction ports 110. When a certain size of air suction port 110 is needed, the air suction adjusting mechanism 9 is combined to close all other sizes of air suction ports 110, so that the corresponding other size suction holes 80 on the seed plate 8 are closed, and the corresponding suction holes 80 are left to adsorb the corresponding size seeds. The seeds are adsorbed by the seed plate 8 and then rotate. When the seeds rotate to the seed dropping area 113 of the air suction plate 11, the suction holes 80 and the seed dropping area 113 are mutually attached and the negative pressure disappears, so that the seeds in the suction holes 80 are separated from the suction holes 80 and fall through the seed dropping port 6. In order to realize the seed of different sizes, a plurality of groups of suction holes 80 are arranged on the seed plate 8, and a plurality of groups of air suction ports 110 are arranged on the air suction plate 11. When a certain size of suction hole 80 is needed, other size suction holes 80 need to be closed to ensure that only the corresponding size suction hole 80 adsorbs the seeds. A plurality of blocking rings 90 are arranged on the back of the air suction plate 11. The blocking head 91 is arranged on the part of the blocking ring 90 corresponding to the air suction port 110. The blocking ring 90 is kept in cooperation with the air suction port 110 under the action of the connecting slide column 911 and the return spring 912, so as to close the air suction port 110. When the seed is adsorbed, the rubber rod 94 is elongated under the control of the push cylinder 92. The matching sleeve 99 corresponding to the part of the blocking ring 90 is locked between the electromagnetic pin 910 and the vertical rod 98. At this time, when the vertical rod 98 is moved by the rubber rod 94, the inclined block 96 is pushed under the action of the matching wedge block 97, so as to push the blocking ring 90 away from the air suction plate 11, so as to drive the blocking head 91 to separate from the corresponding size air suction port 110, so as to make the air suction plate 11 suck the corresponding size suction hole 80 on the seed plate 8. At this time, the rotating seed plate 8 will suck the seeds at the corresponding size suction hole 80 part, rotate with the seed plate 8, and finally separate from the suction hole 80 when reaching the seed dropping area 113. In order to ensure that the air suction port 110 always forms a negative pressure effect on the suction hole 80 on the rotating seed plate 8, the arc-shaped through groove 111 is arranged on the side of the air suction port 110 facing the seed plate 8. The suction hole 80 is always communicated with the arc-shaped through groove 111 during rotation with the seed plate 8, so as to continuously adsorb the adsorbed seeds. The suction hole 80 may adsorb multiple seeds. In order to remove the excess seeds from the suction hole 80, the seed cleaning mechanism 5 is arranged. When the seed plate 8 carrying the seeds rotates and touches the arc-shaped seed cleaning scraper 58, the seeds deviating from the suction hole 80 and close to the seed cleaning scraper 58 part are interfered, so that the seeds separate from the suction hole 80 and fall off, and the seeds close to the suction hole 80 part are completely adsorbed by the suction hole 80 under the action of negative pressure.In order to adapt to the seed cleaning work of different size suction holes 80, the driving motor 51 and the gear plate 52, the driving gear 53, the driven gear 55 drive a plurality of groups of driving screws 54 to rotate, thereby synchronously controlling a plurality of groups of matching sliding blocks 56 and connecting rods 57 to move, at this time the seed cleaning scraper 58 at the end of the connecting rod 57 will be adjusted under the limiting action of the connecting rod 57 to adapt to the radius of the suction hole 80, and the radius of the seed cleaning scraper 58 itself is adjusted, thereby adapting to the seed cleaning work of the suction hole 80 at different positions. Due to the difference in height of different size suction holes 80, in order to adapt to the mutual adsorption between the seeds and the suction holes 80, the lifting motor 24 drives the lifting plate 23, the matching block 26 and the telescopic film 25 to move up and down, thereby enabling the seeds above the supporting plate 13 to reach the position corresponding to the suction hole 80, avoiding the seed retention in the seed supporting area.
