[0021] The present invention provides a fertilizer spreading machine for the roots of costus root. Figure 1-4As shown, the root fertilizer spreader for costus root comprises: a casing 1, a bearing seat 2 is fixedly installed in the casing 1, an auger rod 3 is rotatably installed on the bearing seat 2, and is used to break the soil layer at the root of the costus plant to drill a fertilizer pit; a first motor 4 and a reducer 5, the first motor 4 and the reducer 5 are both fixedly installed in the casing 1, the output shaft of the first motor 4 is fixedly connected to the input shaft of the reducer 5 through a coupling, and the output shaft of the reducer 5 is fixedly connected to the auger rod 3 through a coupling; a water tank 6, the water tank 6 is fixedly installed in the casing 1, and is used to The water and fertilizer liquid to be applied to the roots of the costus root is contained; a water pump 7, which is fixedly installed in the casing 1 and is used for pumping water and fertilizer, and the water inlet end of the water pump 7 is fixedly connected to the water tank 6 through a liquid pumping pipe 8; a fertilizer pipe 9, which is fixedly connected to the water outlet end of the water pump 7 and is used for guiding water and fertilizer, and the water outlet end of the fertilizer pipe 9 extends to one side of the auger rod 3; a handle frame 10, which is fixedly installed on the top of the casing 1 and can be grasped by people; a stirring mechanism, which is arranged on the water tank 6 and is used for stirring and mixing water and fertilizer.
[0022] In this embodiment, the housing 1 serves as the external protective structure and installation base of the entire fertilizer spreader, providing a stable installation environment for the various internal components, enabling them to work together in the complex environment of the wood fragrance planting area, preventing the components from being damaged by external collisions, and ensuring the normal operation of the fertilizer spreader; the bearing seat 2 provides a stable rotation support for the auger rod 3, and the auger rod 3 can effectively break the soil layer at the root of the wood fragrance plant to drill a fertilizer pit. Compared with the traditional manual fertilization by digging the soil, its efficiency is greatly improved, saving manpower and time. The fertilizer pit drilled by the auger rod 3 has a relatively regular shape, which is conducive to the precise application of water and fertilizer in the future, reducing the waste of fertilizer in non-root areas, improving the absorption and utilization rate of fertilizer by wood fragrance, promoting the growth and development of wood fragrance, and thus improving economic benefits; the first motor 4 is a power source, connected to the reducer 5 through a coupling, and the reducer 5 is connected to the auger rod 3. The power of the first motor 4, after being regulated by the speed reducer 5, enables the auger 3 to obtain the appropriate speed and torque to meet the drilling requirements of different soil textures, ensuring stable and efficient operation in the soil layer at the root of the wood fragrance, ensuring the smooth drilling of the fertilizer pit, and further improving the overall fertilization efficiency. The water tank 6 is used to hold the water and fertilizer solution to be applied to the roots of the wood fragrance, providing a sufficient source of water and fertilizer for fertilization. The centralized storage facilitates management and allocation, allowing the accurate allocation of water and fertilizer solutions with corresponding concentrations and compositions according to the needs of different growth stages of the wood fragrance to achieve precise fertilization. The water pump 7 undertakes the key task of extracting the water and fertilizer solution from the water tank 6. After successfully obtaining the water and fertilizer via the liquid extraction pipe 8, it is then accurately guided through the fertilizer pipe 9 to the fertilizer pit pre-drilled by the auger 3. This design cleverly circumvents a series of problems caused by the easy blockage of the water outlet of traditional fertilizer spreaders, greatly enhancing the continuity of the fertilization operation. In actual operation, there is no need to frequently interrupt the operation for cleaning and maintenance due to water outlet blockage, effectively reducing the time and labor costs. Compared with the traditional manual method of spreading fertilizer, this fertilizer spreader can more accurately control the amount of fertilizer through the coordinated operation of the water pump 7 and the pipeline system, effectively avoiding the unnecessary waste of fertilizer and the uneven distribution of fertilizer in the soil, providing a more reliable fertilization guarantee for the healthy growth of costus root and improving the fertilization effect; the handle frame 10 is fixedly installed on the top of the housing 1 for the operator to grasp. During the operation of the fertilizer spreader, the operator can stably control the fertilizer spreader to move in the costus root planting area by holding the handle frame 10, which is convenient for accurate positioning of the fertilization position. It is also beneficial to maintain the balance and stability of the fertilizer spreader in complex terrain, ensuring the smooth progress of the fertilization operation; the stirring mechanism is set on the water tank 6 for stirring and mixing water and fertilizer. When adding fertilizer and water to the water tank 6, the stirring mechanism can fully dissolve the fertilizer and mix it evenly.
[0023] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the stirring mechanism includes: a rotating rod 11 rotatably installed in the water tank 6; a plurality of stirring blades 12 fixedly mounted on the rotating rod 11 for stirring water and fertilizer; a second motor 13 fixed to the water tank 6, and the output shaft of the second motor 13 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 11 through a coupling for transmission.
[0024] In this embodiment, a rotating rod 11 is rotatably mounted within the water tank 6, providing a stable mounting base and rotational support for the stirring blades 12. Its rotation drives the stirring blades 12, thereby stirring the water and fertilizer in the water tank 6. This ensures that the fertilizer is evenly dispersed in the water, resulting in a uniform composition of the fertilizer liquid extracted each time, helping the woodruff to evenly absorb nutrients and improving the stability of the fertilization effect. Multiple stirring blades 12 are fixed to the rotating rod 11. When the rotating rod 11 rotates, the stirring blades 12 fully contact the water and fertilizer and produce a stirring effect. These stirring blades are designed with different angles and shapes to promote thorough mixing of fertilizer particles and water molecules. A second motor 13, fixed to the water tank 6, serves as the power source for the stirring mechanism. Its output shaft is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 11 via a coupling, providing continuous and stable power for the rotation of the rotating rod 11 and stirring blades 12. By controlling the speed and operating time of the second motor 13, the stirring intensity and duration can be flexibly adjusted according to the type and amount of fertilizer added, as well as the total amount of water and fertilizer in the water tank 6, ensuring a good stirring effect for different fertilization requirements.
[0025] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a feeding pipe 14 is fixedly connected to the water tank 6 , and a funnel 15 is fixedly installed on the feeding end of the feeding pipe 14 for adding water-soluble fertilizer and water into the water tank 6 .
[0026] In this embodiment, the feeding pipe 14 is fixedly connected to the water tank 6 and provides a dedicated channel for water-soluble fertilizer and water to enter the water tank 6. Its structural design ensures a smooth addition process, allowing fertilizer and water to be more accurately introduced into the water tank 6, reducing leakage and loss during the addition process, facilitating the operator's replenishment of fertilizer materials, and improving the efficiency of fertilization preparation. The funnel 15 installed at the feed end of the feeding pipe 14 plays a good guiding role. Its large upward-facing design makes it easy for the operator to pour the water-soluble fertilizer and water, preventing spillage during the addition process, making the addition process more convenient.
[0027] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a detachable protective shell 16 is provided at the bottom of the casing 1 for shielding and protecting the auger rod 3 and the fertilizer pipe 9. Hooks 17 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the outer wall of the protective shell 16, and buckles 18 are symmetrically provided on the outer wall of the casing 1, and the buckles 18 are engaged with the corresponding hooks 17.
[0028] In this embodiment, the removable protective shell 16 provided at the bottom of the housing 1 plays an important role in shielding and protecting the fertilizer spreader when it is not in use. It can effectively protect the auger rod 3 and fertilizer pipe 9 from erosion by external environmental factors, thereby extending their service life, reducing the risk of component damage or performance degradation due to long-term exposure, reducing equipment maintenance costs, and ensuring that the fertilizer spreader can continue to operate normally after long periods of inactivity. When the fertilizer spreader is needed, the protective shell 16 can be removed without causing any obstruction to the fertilization operation, which is convenient and quick. The hooks 17 symmetrically fixed on the outer wall of the protective shell 16 cooperate with the buckles 18 symmetrically provided on the outer wall of the housing 1 to form a simple and effective connection method. This connection method facilitates the operator to install and remove the protective shell 16, and can be completed quickly without the need for complex tools. The tight fit of the hooks 17 and buckles 18 ensures the stability of the protective shell 16 in the installed state, preventing it from accidentally falling off, while allowing it to be easily disengaged when it is necessary, improving the convenience and flexibility of the equipment and greatly facilitating the daily maintenance and use of the fertilizer spreader.
[0029] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a base plate 19 is provided at the bottom of the protective shell 16 , and the base plate 19 is fixedly connected to the protective shell 16 via a support frame.
[0030] In this embodiment, the base plate 19 at the bottom of the protective shell 16 plays an important role. First, it provides a relatively stable support surface for the entire fertilizer spreader when in use. This allows the fertilizer spreader to be stably placed on a flat surface such as the ground when not in use, preventing accidents such as tipping over due to unstable placement, and protecting the fertilizer spreader and its internal components from damage. The support frame securely connects the base plate 19 to the protective shell 16, providing a stable support and connection. Furthermore, it ensures the relative position between the base plate 19 and the protective shell 16 is fixed, making the entire structure more secure and reliable, and preventing loosening or deformation.
[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a visual liquid level window and a scale mark are provided on the water tank 6 for checking the remaining water and fertilizer in the water tank 6.
[0032] In this embodiment, the visual liquid level window on the water tank 6 allows the operator to directly observe the liquid level of water and fertilizer in the water tank 6. Through the transparent window, the operator can intuitively understand the approximate amount of water and fertilizer currently remaining in the water tank without opening the water tank 6. This is very convenient during fertilization operations. For example, during long-term continuous fertilization operations, the operator can quickly know whether the water and fertilizer in the water tank 6 are sufficient by glancing at the liquid level window at any time, so as to arrange the replenishment of water and fertilizer in a timely manner, avoiding fertilization interruptions due to depletion of water and fertilizer, which affects the continuity and efficiency of fertilization. The scale mark in conjunction with the visual liquid level window further improves the accuracy of viewing the remaining water and fertilizer in the water tank 6. The scale mark clearly indicates the specific capacity values corresponding to different liquid levels, and the operator can accurately judge how many liters of water and fertilizer are remaining in the water tank 6 based on these scales.
[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a grip cover is fixedly mounted on the handle frame 10 , and the grip cover is made of rubber and is provided with a grip groove.
[0034] In this embodiment, the rubber grip fixedly mounted on the handle frame 10 offers numerous advantages. Rubber has excellent elasticity and flexibility, providing a cushioning effect when gripped by the operator, alleviating hand fatigue caused by prolonged gripping. For example, during fertilization operations in large areas of osmanthus plantations, operators may need to hold the fertilizer spreader for extended periods. The rubber grip effectively alleviates hand pressure, making operation more comfortable and durable. Furthermore, the rubber's excellent anti-slip properties prevent the handle from slipping even in sweaty hands or in humid weather, enhancing operational safety and stability, and preventing damage to the osmanthus plants or the surrounding environment caused by the fertilizer spreader slipping out of the operator's hands.
[0035] In summary, the casing 1 is used as an external protective structure and installation base to provide a stable installation environment for the internal components; the bearing seat 2 provides a stable rotation support for the auger rod 3, and the auger rod 3 can efficiently break the soil layer at the root of the wood fragrance plant to drill a regular fertilizer pit. Compared with the traditional manual digging and fertilization, it greatly improves efficiency and saves manpower and time. The regular fertilizer pit is conducive to subsequent precise fertilization, reduces fertilizer waste, improves the absorption and utilization rate of the wood fragrance for fertilizer, promotes growth and development and improves economic benefits; the first motor 4 is used as a power source and is adjusted by the reducer 5 to provide the auger rod 3 with a rotation speed of 1000 rpm. It provides appropriate speed and torque to adapt to the drilling needs of different soil textures, ensures stable and efficient operation in the soil layer at the root of costus root, further improves the efficiency of drilling the fertilizer pit, and thus ensures the smooth progress of the overall fertilization operation. The key task of extracting water and fertilizer liquid through the water pump 7 is to successfully obtain water and fertilizer with the help of the liquid extraction pipe 8, and then accurately guide it through the fertilizer pipe 9 to the fertilizer pit drilled in advance by the spiral drill rod 3, which solves a series of problems caused by the easy blockage of the water outlet of the traditional fertilizer machine, and greatly enhances the continuity and efficiency of the fertilization operation.
