No irrigation is required or the irrigation frequency is very low. The sowing period is in the dry season with less rainfall at the junction of spring and summer. In order to ensure that the corn seeds can germinate smoothly, irrigation is required after corn sowing. The field planting of corn is equipped with complete irrigation facilities, but for some scattered small plots in rugged areas such as mountainous areas and hills, manual sowing and fertilization are required, and canned water is used to irrigate the small plots many times, which requires a lot of manpower and time. At present, technicians have developed unmanned walking machines, which can be remotely controlled to walk on the ground, but they are only suitable for walking on flat ground and are not suitable for entering mountainous areas, hills and other areas. How to combine unmanned walking machines with agricultural machinery to achieve automatic sowing and ensure the emergence of seeds in the dry season is a technical problem that technicians in this field need to solve.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0019] Specific implementation examples Figure 1-3 As shown, a crawler unmanned corn planter includes an unmanned traveling frame 1 with crawler chassis 8 on the left and right sides.

A motor is arranged on the unmanned traveling frame 1, and the driving wheel 81 is connected to the motor by transmission. The remote control transmits a wireless signal to the unmanned traveling frame 1 to control the motor to transmit power to the driving wheel to realize the walking and steering of the unmanned traveling frame 1.

[0020] The unmanned traveling frame 1 is provided with a fertilizing unit 4 located between two crawler chassis 8, a slotting unit 2, a sowing unit 3 located behind the slotting unit 2 and a covering plate 9, the sowing unit 3 includes a seeder 31 arranged on the unmanned traveling frame 1, and the unmanned traveling frame 1 is also provided with a water retaining agent box 5 and a group of water retaining pipes 6 connected to the water retaining agent box 5, the blanking ends of the water retaining pipes 6 are respectively arranged on both sides of the seed discharge port 32 of the seeder 31, and the water retaining pipes 6 are opened and closed by means of a valve assembly 7, and the width of the groove opened by the slotting unit 2 is greater than or equal to the distance between the blanking ends of the water retaining pipes 6 on both sides of the seed discharge port 32.

[0021] A slotting unit 2, a sowing unit 3, a fertilizing unit 4 and a water retaining agent box 5 are arranged on the unmanned walking frame 1. The unmanned walking frame is moved in a small plot with the help of a remote controller. The unmanned walking frame is visually remotely controlled. During the walking process, slotting, sowing, water retaining agent spreading and fertilizing operations are performed, thereby realizing unmanned driving sowing and fertilizing operations and reducing labor intensity. During the walking process of the unmanned walking frame 1, the slotting unit 2 slots the plot, the sowing unit 3 sows the seeds in the groove, and the water retaining agent box 5 spreads the water retaining agent around the seeds in the groove with the help of the water retaining pipe 6. After the covering plate passes, the soil is covered on the water retaining agent and the seeds to prevent the water retaining agent from being exposed to sunlight and to extend the use time of the water retaining agent. The water retaining agent quickly absorbs and preserves moisture in the soil to prevent moisture from seeping or evaporating. The water retaining agent slowly releases moisture for plant absorption to ensure that there is sufficient moisture around the seeds, effectively reducing the amount of water required for irrigation, further reducing the planting labor intensity of small plots without irrigation facilities in mountainous areas and hills, and helping to improve the emergence rate of crops.

[0022] The seeder 31 is a duckbill hole seeder, and the drive shaft of the seeder 31 is transmission-connected with the power output end of the motor on the unmanned traveling frame 1. The duckbill hole seeder is suitable for crops suitable for hole sowing, such as corn.

During the operation, the rotating disk 21 rotates, and the slotting protrusions 22 on the rotating disk 21 squeeze on the plot to form a groove with a large top and a small bottom. The water retaining agent falls into the groove and is located around the seeds. At the same time, it is convenient for the covering plate 9 to cover and shield the water retaining agent with soil to prevent the water retaining agent from failing.

[0024] The valve assembly 7 includes a drop tray 71 fixedly connected to the unmanned walking frame 1 and located on both sides of the seeder 31, and a receiving tray 72 located in the drop tray 71.

The drop tray 71 is provided with a drop port 711 corresponding to the seed discharge port 32 at the bottom of the seeder 31. The receiving tray 72 uses the drop port 711 to realize the drop of the water-retaining agent at the sowing position, wherein the driving shaft of the receiving tray 72 is connected to the power output end of the motor on the unmanned walking frame 1. Transmission connection; when the receiving plate 72 rotates and the receiving trough 721 is aligned with the discharge end of the water-retaining pipe 6, the water-retaining agent in the water-retaining agent box 5 falls into the receiving trough 721 along the water-retaining pipe 6; when the water-retaining pipe 6 is located between the two receiving troughs 721, it is blocked by the side wall of the receiving plate 72 and stops dropping; the receiving trough 721 on the receiving plate 72 receives the material, and the receiving plate 72 continues to rotate, and the inner wall of the dropping plate 71 blocks the opening of the receiving trough 721. When the receiving trough 721 rotates to the dropping port 711 of the dropping plate 71, the water-retaining agent in the receiving trough 721 slides along the dropping port 711 to the sowing position.

[0025] Preferably, a guide plate 73 is provided at the bottom of the drop port 711. The guide plate 73 is inclined with a high front and a low rear along the walking direction of the unmanned walking frame 1. The upper end of the guide plate 73 is connected to the bottom of the drop port 711. The water-retaining agent slides along the guide plate 73 to increase the application range of the water-retaining agent, ensuring that the water-retaining agent can cover the area around the seeds and provide moisture for the root growth area of ​​the crop.

[0026] Preferably, the number of seeders 31 in the sowing unit 3 is greater than 1, and the seeders 31 are arranged at intervals in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the walking direction of the unmanned walking frame 1.
