Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of agricultural equipment, in particular to a profiling spray boom for a field sprayer. Background Technique
[0002] The prevention and control of pests and diseases of field crops mainly adopt the method of spraying pesticides. At the same time, the operating environment of field spraying is complex and the ground is rough. In order to ensure the uniformity of pesticide spraying, it is necessary to adjust the distance between the spray boom and the crops according to the actual operating environment to maximize the effective rate of pesticide use.
[0003] For a field sprayer, the distance between the spray boom and the suspension and the ground is not adjusted after the spraying operation starts. When the field ground is relatively flat, this measure can reduce the complexity of the sprayer system and is beneficial to the operation and maintenance of the system. However, when the field ground is uneven or operating on a mountain, some problems will occur: affected by the uneven ground, the vibration of the spraying machine during operation will be aggravated, and this vibration will be transmitted to the spray boom, causing the spray boom to shake violently; when affected by the uneven ground, the spraying machine will tilt at a certain angle, and coupled with the violent shaking of the spray boom, the spray boom will contact or even touch the ground with the crops; when operating on a mountain, affected by the terrain, the crops will be planted on the hillside. If the spray boom is not adjusted, it may cause the spray boom to contact the mountain body and lead to inoperability or even damage to the spray boom.
[0004] A profiling spray boom for a sprayer and its control method disclosed in Application No. 201611017261.X adopts a main-passive support suspension and spray boom side arms on both sides to realize a profiling spray boom for a sprayer. The passive part of the suspension isolates the high-frequency motion excitation of the spray boom from the vehicle body, providing a relatively stable platform for the active control of the motion posture of the spray boom. The active part of the suspension combines sensors, actuators, etc. to realize that the spray boom tracks the low-frequency ground slope change to adjust the overall posture of the spray boom; at the same time, the spray boom side arm is composed of multiple sections of trusses, and relative movement can be realized between the trusses. However, for field spraying, this system is too complex and the control complexity is relatively high.
[0005] A hand-pushed assisted profiling spray boom sprayer disclosed in Application No. 201720268707.X realizes the adjustment of the height of the spray boom and the shape of the spray device through a deformable spray boom, a medicine box, a vehicle body, etc., but it does not consider the influence of terrain changes on the shaking of the spray boom, and at the same time does not consider the influence of the high-frequency vibration of the machine itself on the spray boom.
[0006] A spray bar self - balancing device for an on - vehicle wide - width spray bar sprayer disclosed in Application No. 202020495623.1 realizes, on the premise of not affecting the normal and stable operation of the spray bar sprayer, overcoming the defect that the spray bar shakes violently with the chassis during pesticide application operations through devices such as an arc - shaped groove guide rail provided on the inner wall and an arc - shaped rod provided on the middle frame that cooperates with the arc - shaped groove guide rail. However, in the design of the spray bar, an integrated spray bar is adopted, which has slightly insufficient space utilization on the machine and does not consider the influence of the chassis shaking on the spray bar operation when the spray bar has a certain folding freedom.

[0030] The present invention provides a profiling spray boom and suspension system applied to a field sprayer, which is used for profiling spraying of a field sprayer for different terrains and different crop heights and has the effect of isolating high-frequency vibrations from the machine.
[0031] The suspension design in this utility model has the function of active control, and the active control mainly realizes three functions: overall height increase, ground profiling, and active balance. The purpose of adjusting the height of the boom side arm is to keep a relative distance between the boom and the crop canopy within a certain range, so as to achieve the optimal spray deposition characteristics and maximize the use efficiency of chemical pesticides. The height adjustment oil cylinder adjusts the height of the lifting frame, thereby driving the up and down movement of the boom side arm, which can meet the field operation requirements of different crops in the same period and the same crop in different periods.
[0032] The profiling hydraulic cylinder is hinged with the boom side arm and the support suspension. The telescopic movement of the profiling cylinder drives one side of the boom side arm to rotate around the hinge point in the vertical plane, realizing the ground profiling of the boom.
[0033] The overall height increase and ground profiling can ensure that the best spray height is maintained between the bottom end of the boom and the crop canopy, improving the adaptability of the applicator to changes in the operation terrain environment; the active balance can further improve the adaptability of the applicator to changes in the operation ground environment.
[0034] The structure of this utility model is reasonable, with high adaptability to the operation environment, and can meet the needs of most field operations.
[0035] The boom limiting device can limit the rotational movement of the boom suspension relative to the support frame within a certain angular range. When the boom suspension is in the passive suspension state, it can effectively prevent the boom from being damaged due to large-angle rolling movement and the end of the boom touching the ground.

[0043] AsFigure 1 , 2 As described in items 6 and 7, the present utility model discloses a profiling spray boom for a field spraying machine, which includes a support suspension 47 connected to the spray vehicle body and spray boom side arms 46 installed on the left and right sides of the support suspension 47. The support suspension 47 includes a support frame 48 connected to the spray vehicle body through a vertical linear guide.

The trapezoidal four-bar linkage spray boom suspension 50 includes an upper link 51 and a lower link 52. The length of the upper link 51 of the trapezoidal four-bar linkage spray boom suspension 50 is less than the length of the lower link 52.

The tail ends of the active balance cylinders 8 are hinged on both sides of the lower link 52 of the trapezoidal four-bar linkage spray boom suspension 50, and the telescopic ends face upward and are hinged on the left and right sides of the support frame 48. The function of the connecting rod 55 is to offset the horizontal force acting on the upper link 51 when the active balance cylinder 8 moves up or down.
[0046] An inclined surface inclined downward toward the support suspension 47 is provided at the inner end of the spray boom side arm 46, so that a pointed part located at the lower side is formed at the inner end of the spray boom side arm 46. The pointed part of the left spray boom side arm 46 is coaxially hinged with the hinge point between the left link 53 and the lower link 52, and the pointed part of the right spray boom side arm 46 is coaxially hinged with the hinge point between the right link 54 and the lower link 52.

[0048] A boom limiting mechanism 61 is provided between the trapezoidal four-link boom suspension 50 and the support frame 48. The boom limiting mechanism 61 includes a limiting groove 58 arranged horizontally on the lower connecting rod 52. A vertically arranged connecting plate 59 penetrates through both sides of the limiting groove 58. Both ends of the connecting plate 59 extend out of the limiting groove 58 and are respectively fixed to the support frame 48 through limiting rods 60. The limiting rods 60 are vertically installed on the support frame 48 and are used to limit the rotation angle of the trapezoidal four-link boom suspension 50.
[0049] The control functions of the present utility model are as follows:
[0050] 1) Overall height increase
[0051] As Figure 3 shown, when the spraying machine is working in the field, due to different crops in the field or different time points when the crops need to be sprayed with pesticides, the overall ground clearance of the boom side arm 46 needs to be adjustable within a relatively large range to meet the field operation requirements of different crops in the same cycle and different crops in different cycles, so as to achieve the best spraying height and then the best spraying effect, and improve the adaptability of the spraying machine to the changing environment of the operating crops. Therefore, by controlling the height adjustment oil rod 19, the height adjustment of the boom side arm 46 can be realized.
[0052] 2) Ground contour following
[0053] As Figure 4 shown, in the case of different terrains on the left and right, such as Figure 4 the terrain on the right in is a slope terrain. This causes the boom part of the spraying machine to follow the terrain change. At this time, by controlling the contour following oil cylinder 39 to retract to lift the boom suspension 47, the best spraying height between the bottom end of the boom suspension 47 and the crop canopy is ensured, and the adaptability of the spraying machine to the changing terrain environment during operation is improved.
[0054] 3) Active balance
[0055] When the spraying machine is working in the field, the body tilt caused by the uneven ground drives the boom suspension 47 to tilt. As Figure 5 shown, at this time, the ground is in an uneven state. In this state, to keep the relative position between the bottom end of the boom suspension 47 and the crop canopy unchanged and achieve the best spraying effect, it is necessary to control the active balance oil cylinder 8 to act to overcome the tilt of the boom suspension 47 caused by the body, combined with the action of the left and right contour following oil cylinders 39, to further reach the ideal height of the boom suspension 47 during field operation and improve the adaptability of the spraying machine to the changing ground environment during operation.

[0065] The working principle of the hydraulic control system is as follows.
[0066] 1) During the working process of the hydraulic control system, when the first two-position two-way electromagnetic cut-off valve 13 and the second two-position two-way electromagnetic cut-off valve 14 are de-energized, at this time the first two-position two-way electromagnetic cut-off valve 13 and the second two-position two-way electromagnetic cut-off valve 14 are in the closed state, the oil fluid cannot flow, and the two active balance oil rods 8 on both sides are in the locked state. The spray bar side arm cannot be leveled under the action of gravity due to the restriction of the two active balance oil rods 8 on both sides, and the support suspension 47 is in the closed state.
[0067] Control the first two-position two-way electromagnetic cut-off valve 13 and the second two-position two-way electromagnetic cut-off valve 14 to be energized. At this time, the first two-position two-way electromagnetic cut-off valve 13 and the second two-position two-way electromagnetic cut-off valve 14 are in the open state. And when the third three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 15 is in the middle position, the two active balance oil rods 8 are in the floating state, and the active balance oil cylinders 8 can freely extend or retract under the action of gravity. The first one-way throttle valve 10 and the second one-way throttle valve 11 installed on the active balance circuit A can change the damping of the entire system when the spray bar side arm 46 is adjusted by gravity by adjusting the size of the throttle orifice. At this time, the support suspension 47 is in the passive suspension state.
[0068] The first two-position two-way electromagnetic cut-off valve 13 and the second two-position two-way electromagnetic cut-off valve 14 are energized. The first two-position two-way electromagnetic cut-off valve 13 and the second two-position two-way electromagnetic cut-off valve 14 are in the open state, and the third three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 15 is energized. When placed in different working positions, the pressure oil enters the two active balance oil rods 8. One of the two active balance oil rods 8 extends and the other retracts, thereby adjusting the attitude of the entire spray boom side arm through an external force source. At this time, the support suspension 47 is in the active balance state;
[0069] The first three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 31 and the second three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 32 are energized. When the pressure oil enters the rod chamber of the profiling oil cylinder 39, the spray boom suspension rises. When the pressure oil enters the rodless chamber of the profiling oil cylinder 39, the spray boom suspension descends. According to the ground conditions, the spray boom suspension is controlled to be in the ground profiling state. When the spray boom suspension rises to the appropriate position, it is necessary to keep the spray boom suspension unchanged in the spatial position attitude. This requires the ground profiling hydraulic control system to have self-locking. The first two-way balance valve 35 and the second two-way balance valve 36 installed on the ground profiling circuit C make the system have good self-locking. The first two-way balance valve 35 and the second two-way balance valve 36 will establish a certain back pressure in the working circuit during the working process so that the actuator will not generate negative pressure. And a dynamic balance relationship is formed among the spool opening degree, the control pressure of the control oil port and the opening pressure difference of the first two-way balance valve 35 and the second two-way balance valve 36 during the working process. The flow rate through the first two-way balance valve 35 and the second two-way balance valve 36 remains basically unchanged. The control pressure of the control oil port has a certain buffer when pushing the main valve of the first two-way balance valve 35 and the second two-way balance valve 36 to open. The first two-way balance valve 35 and the second two-way balance valve 36 adopted in the real-time adjustable ground profiling circuit C can effectively reduce the impact and vibration of the hydraulic control system caused by adjusting the spray boom suspension, increase the stability of the system, and effectively avoid the generation of negative pressure in the profiling oil cylinder and extend the service life of the profiling oil cylinder.
[0070] 2) The working principle of the overall spray boom lifting circuit B is the same as that of the ground profiling circuit C, and the specific principle will not be elaborated here.
[0071] 3) The hydraulic control system has the functions of load feedback and dynamic pressure feedback. Among them, the fuel transfer pump 2, the fixed-differential overflow valve 5, the fourth adjustable throttle valve 7, the first check valve 27, the second check valve 28, the third check valve 17, the fourth check valve 25, the first pressure compensator 29, the second pressure compensator 30, the third pressure compensator 16, the fourth pressure compensator 26 and each actuator cylinder form a load feedback system.
[0072] The first pressure compensator 29, the second pressure compensator 30, the third pressure compensator 16, and the fourth pressure compensator 26 are respectively installed at the input ends of the first three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 31, the second three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 32, the third three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 15, and the fourth three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 24, forming a pre-valve pressure compensation system, so that the pressure difference at both ends of the oil flowing through the valve ports of the first three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 31, the second three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 32, the third three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 15, and the fourth three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 24 becomes a constant value, and the flow rate flowing into each hydraulic cylinder is only related to the valve port opening degrees of the first three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 31, the second three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 32, the third three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 15, and the fourth three-position four-way proportional solenoid valve 24, that is, the opening degree controls the flow rate flowing through the proportional valve port.
[0073] During the adjustment process of the boom suspension, when the oil supply amount of the oil transfer pump 2 is greater than the sum of the required flow rates of each circuit, it will cause the pressure at the oil inlet ends of the first pressure compensator 29, the second pressure compensator 30, the third pressure compensator 16, and the fourth pressure compensator 26 to increase. At this time, the load pressures of each actuator cylinder pass through the first shuttle valve 33, the second shuttle valve 34, the third shuttle valve 12, and the fourth shuttle valve 23 installed on each circuit to feedback the maximum pressure of the load to the upper control oil circuit of the fixed-differential overflow valve 5 through the first one-way valve 27, the second one-way valve 28, the third one-way valve 17, and the fourth one-way valve 25. By comparing the feedback maximum load pressure with the oil supply pressure, when the value of the output pressure of the oil transfer pump 2 higher than the feedback pressure is greater than the set value of the fixed-differential overflow valve 5, the pressure oil output by the oil transfer pump 2 will push the spool of the fixed-differential overflow valve 5, and the excessive flow rate output by the oil transfer pump 2 will flow back to the fuel tank 45 through the return oil circuit, so that the load pressure, the oil supply pressure and flow rate of the oil transfer pump 2 match the pressure and flow rate required by the system.
[0074] The fourth adjustable throttle valve 7 is installed between the upper control oil circuit of the fixed-differential overflow valve 5 and the first one-way valve 27, the second one-way valve 28, the third one-way valve 17, and the fourth one-way valve 25, acting as a damping hole to reduce the instantaneous impact of the feedback pressure generated during the control valve switching process, reduce the vibration of the entire hydraulic control system, and increase the system stability.
[0075] The first adjustable throttle valve 42, the second adjustable throttle valve 41, the third adjustable throttle valve 20 and the first accumulator 44, the second accumulator 43, the third accumulator 19 form a dynamic pressure feedback system. Through the dynamic pressure feedback system, the flow rate pulsation generated by the oil transfer pump 2 and the instantaneous impact of the pressure oil during the adjustment process of the boom suspension can be absorbed, and the vibration generated by the boom due to adjustment can be attenuated. Embodiment 2
[0076] As Figures 3 - 5As shown in the figure, the spray bar side arms 46 on both sides each include an inner section 62 at the innermost side, a middle section 63 in the middle, and an outer section 64 at the outermost side. The bottoms of the inner section 62, the middle section 63, and the outer section 64 are hinged in sequence. A secondary deployment oil cylinder 65 that drives the middle section to rotate around the hinge point is hinged between the bottoms of the inner section 62 and the middle section 63. An end deployment oil cylinder 66 that drives the outer section 64 to rotate around the hinge point is hinged between the bottoms of the middle section 63 and the outer section 64.
[0077] The middle section 63 and the outer section 64 can be driven to fold inwards by the secondary deployment oil cylinder 65, and the outer section 64 can be driven to fold relative to the middle section 63 by the end deployment oil cylinder 66, so that the spray bar side arm 46 forms a folded state when not in use, achieving the purpose of saving space.
