Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of agricultural planting, in particular to a small-sized ditching fertilizer applicator suitable for orchards. Background Art
[0002] Over the years, governments at all levels in my country have attached great importance to the economic development of rural areas, gradually implemented the rural revitalization strategy, and vigorously advocated the development of fruit planting. However, various fruit trees need to continuously absorb nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, sulfur, zinc, boron, iron, molybdenum, copper, manganese, silicon and other dozens of trace nutrients in the soil to promote their healthy growth and development. However, the various nutrients in the soil are not inexhaustible. When the nutrients in the soil cannot meet the demand, it has a great impact on the healthy growth of trees; for example, malnutrition of fruit trees will cause the leaves to discolor and shrink, even wither and fall, and the fruits to decrease or even fall and fruitless, which seriously affects the quality and yield of fruits and the normal development and growth of fruit trees.
[0003] Therefore, in order to meet the different nutritional elements required by the growth stage of fruit trees, fertilizers need to be applied to the soil during planting and later maintenance so that the fruit trees can absorb nutrients from the soil. For the fertilization of fruit trees, the existing fertilization methods are roughly divided into hole application, furrow application and surface application. Through hole application, fertilizer holes need to be opened manually near the fruit trees, and then the fertilizer is manually put into the holes and then covered with soil. Through this fertilization method, the absorption rate of fruit trees is high and the fertilizer waste rate is low, but the labor intensity is relatively high. Although the labor intensity of surface application is low, the fertilizer utilization rate is low, resulting in waste.
[0004] Therefore, the method of furrow application can not only ensure the utilization rate of fertilizer, but also has moderate labor intensity, and is suitable for fertilizing most fruit trees. However, in actual fertilization, due to the presence of fruit trees in the orchard, if a large-scale furrowing fertilizer applicator is used for furrowing and fertilizing, it is not convenient to move in the orchard. At the same time, because the roots of fruit trees are staggered, it is easy to cut off the roots during the furrowing process. When using manual furrowing, one person is required to dig the furrow and the other to fertilize, which not only increases the labor cost and labor intensity, but also has the possibility of cutting the roots. Utility Model Content
[0005] Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned shortcomings, the utility model provides a small trenching fertilizer applicator suitable for orchards. The trenching fertilizer applicator places a conical hopper through a hand-held mobile device, which can be convenient for storing fertilizer and then moving it to the orchard for fertilization. Combined with the setting of the trenching knife, trenching and fertilizing can be achieved while pushing the hand-held mobile device. At the same time, during the trenching process, if the trenching knife contacts the tree roots, resistance will be generated, so the trenching knife can be lifted upward to avoid cutting off the tree roots.
[0006] The utility model is realized by constructing a small-sized furrowing fertilizer applicator suitable for orchards, comprising a hand-held mobile device, a conical hopper being fixed on the top thereof;
[0007] Grooving knife, movable arrangement at both ends of the hand-held mobile device to keep the spacing adjustable;
[0008] The fertilization component has one end connected to the bottom of the conical hopper and the other end connected to the trenching knife and realizes automatic fertilization as the hand-held mobile device moves forward.
[0009] Specifically, the hand-held mobile device includes a frame and a rotatable rod arranged at the lower end of the frame, wheels are arranged on both sides of the rotatable rod, a hand-held rod is arranged on the side of the frame, and the conical hopper is fixed on the frame.
[0010] Specifically, mounting rods are arranged on both side surfaces of the frame, and the mounting rods are arranged perpendicularly to the moving direction of the handheld mobile device. A sleeve is slidably sleeved on the outer end of the mounting rod, and a trenching knife is fixed to the lower end of the sleeve. The trenching direction of the trenching knife is adapted to the forward direction of the handheld mobile device.
[0011] Specifically, the mounting rod is linearly provided with a plurality of fixing holes, the sleeve is provided with a connecting hole which is equal in size to the fixing holes and has a corresponding position, and the sleeve is fixed to the mounting rod by fasteners passing through the connecting hole and any fixing hole on the mounting rod.
[0012] Specifically, there are two groups of fertilization components, which correspond to the trenching knives at both ends of the hand-held mobile device respectively. Each group of fertilization components includes a fertilizer pipe and a hose. The top of one end of the fertilizer pipe is arranged at the bottom of the conical hopper and is connected thereto, and the bottom of the other end of the fertilizer pipe is connected to one end of the hose, and the other end of the hose is fixed to the inner side of the trenching knife and keeps the discharge port vertically downward. A spiral shaft is also arranged at the inner end of the fertilizer pipe, and either end of the spiral shaft passes through the end of the fertilizer pipe and is connected to the rotating rod through a second transmission mechanism.
[0013] Specifically, a rotating shaft is arranged at the center of the inner bottom of the conical hopper, one end of the rotating shaft passes through the bottom of the conical hopper and is connected to the rotating rod through a first transmission mechanism, and a stirring blade for stirring the material inside the conical hopper is arranged at the other end of the rotating shaft, and a drop hole is opened in the conical hopper at both ends of the rotating shaft, and the drop hole is connected to the fertilization assembly.
[0014] Specifically, a blanking valve is also provided on the bottom side of the conical hopper. When the blanking valve is slidably inserted into the conical hopper, the blanking hole and the fertilization assembly are blocked. When the blanking valve is withdrawn from the conical hopper, the blanking hole is connected to the fertilization assembly.
[0015] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] The trenching fertilizer applicator places a conical hopper through a hand-held mobile device, which can be convenient for moving to the orchard for fertilization after storing fertilizer. Combined with the setting of the trenching knife, trenching and fertilization can be conveniently achieved when pushing the handheld mobile device. At the same time, during the trenching process, if the trenching knife contacts the tree roots, resistance will be generated, so the trenching knife can be lifted upward to avoid cutting off the tree roots. The trenching knife is set in a movable connection form, and the position of the trenching knife can be adjusted before trenching to correspond to different spacings of different fruit trees.

[0032] Please refer to the attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 Specifically, mounting rods 10 are provided on both side surfaces of the frame 1, and the mounting rods 10 are perpendicular to the moving direction of the handheld mobile device. A sleeve 11 is slidably sleeved on the outer end of the mounting rod 10, and a trenching knife 12 is fixed to the lower end of the sleeve 11, and the trenching direction of the trenching knife 12 is adapted to the forward direction of the handheld mobile device.
[0033] Specifically, the mounting rod 10 is linearly provided with a plurality of fixing holes, the sleeve 11 is provided with a connecting hole which is equal in size to and has a corresponding position to the fixing holes, and the sleeve 11 is fixed to the mounting rod 10 by fasteners passing through the connecting hole and any fixing hole on the mounting rod 10 .
[0034] Please see attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 4Specifically, there are two groups of fertilization components, which correspond to the trenching knives 12 at both ends of the hand-held mobile device respectively. Each group of fertilization components includes a fertilizer pipe 8 and a hose 9. The top of one end of the fertilizer pipe 8 is set at the bottom of the conical hopper 2 and is connected thereto. The bottom of the other end of the fertilizer pipe 8 is connected to one end of the hose 9. The other end of the hose 9 is fixed to the inner side of the trenching knife 12 and keeps the discharge port vertically downward. A spiral shaft is also arranged at the inner end of the fertilizer pipe 8. Any end of the spiral shaft passes through the end of the fertilizer pipe 8 and is connected to the rotating rod 5 through the second transmission mechanism 7.
[0035] Please refer to the attached Figure 4 The lower end of the trenching knife is arc-shaped, the inner end of the arc is a trenching portion, and the outer end of the arc is provided with a receiving groove, and the hose is fixed in the receiving groove.
[0036] Please see attached Figure 5 and attached Figure 6 Specifically, a rotating shaft 14 is provided at the center of the inner bottom of the conical hopper 2, one end of the rotating shaft 14 passes through the bottom of the conical hopper 2 and is connected to the rotating rod 5 through the first transmission mechanism 4, and a stirring blade for stirring the material inside the conical hopper 2 is provided at the other end of the rotating shaft 14, and a drop hole is opened in the conical hopper 2 at both ends of the rotating shaft 14, and the drop hole is communicated with the fertilization component.
[0037] Furthermore, by Figure 2 It can be directly seen that the second transmission mechanism is a belt transmission mechanism, and the first transmission mechanism is a bevel gear transmission mechanism.
[0038] Please continue to refer to the attached Figure 5 and attached Figure 6 Specifically, a blanking valve 13 is also provided on the bottom side of the conical hopper 2. When the blanking valve 13 is slidably inserted into the conical hopper 2, the blanking hole and the fertilizer assembly are blocked. When the blanking valve 13 is pulled out from the inside of the conical hopper 2, the blanking hole is connected to the fertilizer assembly.
[0039] Further, please refer to the attached Figure 4 and attached Figure 6Two rectangular holes and a circular hole are provided on the bottom side of the conical hopper 2, and the rectangular hole is vertically connected to the blanking hole. The blanking valve is provided with a rectangular plate and a round rod, and a mounting plate is provided at one end of the blanking valve. The mounting plate is used to parallely mount the rectangular plate and the round rod, and a handle is provided on the outside of the mounting plate. The round rod passes through the circular hole on the bottom side of the conical hopper 2, and a limiting head is provided at the other end of the round rod. The rectangular plate passes through the rectangular hole on the bottom side of the conical hopper 2. When the blanking valve is in the first limit position, the mounting plate contacts the side of the conical hopper 2. At this time, the rectangular plate is inserted into the rectangular hole and moves to the innermost end to block the blanking hole. When the blanking valve is in the second limit position, the limiting head contacts the side of the conical hopper 2. At this time, the rectangular plate moves to the outermost end of the rectangular hole or separates from the rectangular hole, thereby ensuring that the blanking hole is connected to the fertilization assembly.
[0040] According to the technical features described in the previous paragraph, the shape of the blanking valve is set to facilitate blocking the blanking hole without affecting the rotation of the rotating shaft 14.
[0041] In order to facilitate the fixing of the blanking valve, magnetic parts can be arranged on the side of the limit head and the mounting plate, and the fixing is achieved after the magnetic parts come into contact with the conical hopper.
[0042] When the ditching fertilizer applicator is working, the drop valve 13 is closed in advance, the drop hole is blocked, and the fertilizer is poured into the conical hopper 2. Then the whole device is moved to the field through the wheels 6. After completion, the installation position of the ditching knife 12 is adjusted according to the spacing of the fruit trees in the field. The adjustment method can refer to the above content or the attached Figure 1 The structure shown is not described in detail here. After the adjustment is completed, the drop valve 13 is opened, and then the whole device is dragged and moved by the hand-held rod 3. During the movement, the bottom of the trenching knife 12 is ensured to be in contact with the ground to achieve the purpose of trenching. During the movement, the rotating rod 5 rotates, and the rotating shaft 14 is driven to rotate through the first transmission mechanism 4, and then the fertilizer in the conical hopper is pushed into the drop hole to achieve drop. The spiral shaft in the fertilizer pipe 8 is driven to rotate through the second transmission mechanism 7. The fertilizer dropped from the drop hole enters the fertilizer pipe and enters the hose 9 through the rotation of the spiral shaft, and finally falls from the rear end of the trenching knife under the action of gravity to achieve automatic fertilization.
[0043] During the fertilization process, if there is a large resistance when trenching, it means that the trenching knife is in contact with the tree root. At this time, it is only necessary to lift one end of the hand-held rod 3 upward to keep the trenching knife 12 over the tree root, thereby effectively ensuring the growth of the fruit tree.
[0044] The above description is a detailed description of the preferred feasible embodiment of the utility model, but the embodiment is not used to limit the scope of the patent application of the utility model. All equivalent changes or modified changes completed under the technical spirit suggested by the utility model should fall within the patent scope covered by the utility model.
