It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0021] This utility model embodiment provides a precision pesticide application device for water chestnut cultivation, such as... Figure 1-4 As shown, the precision spraying device for water chestnut cultivation includes: a drone body 1 for precise spraying via flight, with a medicine tank 2 for holding the pesticide solution on the top of the drone body 1; a mounting frame 3 fixedly installed at the bottom of the drone body 1, with a rotatable and adjustable atomizing nozzle 4 below the mounting frame 3 for spraying pesticide solution onto the water chestnut plants; a water pump 5 fixedly installed on the mounting frame 3 for pumping pesticide solution, with the inlet end of the water pump 5 connected to the medicine tank 2 via a suction pipe 6; an outlet pipe 7 installed at the outlet end of the water pump 5, with the outlet end of the outlet pipe 7 connected to a connecting pipe 8 via a telescopic pipe 9, and the outlet end of the connecting pipe 8 connected to the atomizing nozzle 4; and an adjustment mechanism installed on the mounting frame 3 for adjusting the atomizing nozzle 4 to swing slightly.

[0022] In this embodiment, the drone body 1 serves as the flight carrier of the entire device, enabling it to fly and move over the paddy field, avoiding the difficulty of personnel entering the paddy field. The drone body 1's flight capability allows for long-distance, efficient spraying of water chestnut plants, improving application efficiency. The pesticide tank 2 holds the pesticide solution, serving as the source of pesticide during application. The pesticide tank 2 allows the drone to carry sufficient pesticide solution for continuous spraying, reducing the hassle of multiple refills. The mounting bracket 3 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the drone body 1, supporting and securing components such as the water pump 5 and the atomizing nozzle 4. Pipe 4 is used to spray pesticide onto water chestnut plants. Its adjustability allows the spraying angle and range to be adjusted according to actual needs. Water pump 5 is fixedly mounted on mounting bracket 3 and is used to pump pesticide solution from the pesticide tank 2 to the atomizing spray pipe 4. Liquid extraction pipe 6 connects the inlet end of water pump 5 and pesticide tank 2 and is used to extract pesticide solution from pesticide tank 2. Liquid outlet pipe 7 connects the outlet end of water pump 5 and connecting pipe 8 and is used to transport pesticide solution to connecting pipe 8. The transport function of liquid outlet pipe 7 allows pesticide solution to smoothly reach connecting pipe 8 from water pump 5 and then enter atomizing spray pipe 4 for spraying. Connecting pipe 8 connects liquid outlet pipe 7 and atomizing spray pipe. 4. The connecting pipe 8 is used to transport the pesticide solution from the outlet pipe 7 to the atomizing spray pipe 4. The connecting pipe 8 ensures a continuous and stable flow of pesticide solution into the atomizing spray pipe 4, guaranteeing the continuity and stability of the application. The telescopic pipe 9 is located between the outlet pipe 7 and the connecting pipe 8; its telescopic nature allows for adjustment of the atomizing spray pipe 4's oscillation. The adjustment mechanism, located on the mounting frame 3, is used to adjust the atomizing spray pipe 4 to oscillate slightly, achieving a more uniform spraying effect. Through the adjustment mechanism, the atomizing spray pipe 4 can oscillate slightly during spraying, thus achieving more complete coverage of the water chestnut plants. The more even and comprehensive spraying further improves the application effect. In summary, the precision spraying device for water chestnut cultivation of this utility model achieves precise application of pesticides to water chestnut plants through the flight capability of the drone body 1, the holding capacity of the pesticide tank 2, the supporting function of the mounting frame 3, the precise spraying of the adjustable atomizing nozzle 4, the pumping function of the water pump 5, the conveying function of the liquid extraction pipe 6 and the liquid outlet pipe 7, the connecting function of the connecting pipe 8 and the telescopic pipe 9, and the adjustment function of the adjustment mechanism. This improves the application effect, reduces the waste of pesticide solution, lowers the application cost, and also reduces the labor intensity of growers.

[0024] In this embodiment, the rotation of the rotating rod 10 can drive the assembly frame 12 and the atomizing nozzle 4 on it to swing, thereby adjusting the spraying angle and improving the accuracy and uniformity of the application. The driving action of the first motor 11 enables the rotating rod 10 to rotate at a predetermined speed and direction, thereby achieving precise control of the swing angle of the atomizing nozzle 4 and improving the automation level and accuracy of the application. The assembly frame 12 not only enhances the stability of the atomizing nozzle 4, but also enables the atomizing nozzle 4 to swing with the rotation of the rotating rod 10, thereby expanding the spraying range and improving the uniformity and efficiency of the application. The pipe rack is used to fix the atomizing nozzle 4 on the assembly frame 12 to ensure that the atomizing nozzle 4 will not fall off or shake during the swinging process. In summary, the adjustment mechanism, through the coordinated action of the rotating rod 10, the first motor 11, the assembly frame 12, and the pipe rack, achieves precise control of the swing angle of the atomizing nozzle 4, thereby improving the accuracy and uniformity of the application.

After being powered on, the second motor 16 outputs precise and stable power according to the application requirements, and efficiently transmits the power to the stirring rod 17 through a coupling, driving the stirring rod 17 to rotate continuously and at a uniform speed around its axis. The operator can flexibly adjust the start, stop, and speed of the second motor 16 according to the type of medicine, the concentration of the medicine solution, and the application time.

[0029] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the medicine box 2 is provided with a medicine replenishment port, the top of the medicine replenishment port is hinged to an openable cover plate, and a handle is fixedly installed on the top of the cover plate.

Growers precisely control the timing of replenishment based on the application progress and the remaining pesticide level in the tank, smoothly pouring the prepared pesticide solution into the medicine tank 2 through the replenishment port. The cover is hinged to the top of the replenishment port, allowing for flexible opening and closing. During normal application, the cover is tightly closed, effectively sealing the replenishment port and isolating it from external dust, debris, and moisture, preventing these impurities from contaminating the pesticide solution inside the medicine tank 2.

[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the medicine box 2 is provided with a visual liquid level window and scale for observing the amount of medicine.

[0032] In this embodiment, the combination of a visual liquid level window and a scale makes it convenient for personnel to observe the amount of medicine added to the tank 2.

[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a detachable inspection plate is provided on the mounting shell 15, and the inspection plate is fixedly connected to the mounting shell 15 by screws.
