Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a spraying device, and more particularly to a splicing device suitable for agricultural drones. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, conventional agricultural drones are mainly used for spraying or irrigating specific areas with pesticides such as nutrient solutions and insect repellents. The standard method involves attaching a storage tank to the drone and then activating its attached nozzles to spray the pesticides in the designated area.

[0003] However, because different pesticide solutions have varying viscosities, some higher-concentration solutions tend to "condense" at the bottom after settling, causing blockages in the spray components and hindering smooth spraying. Therefore, manual intervention is often required upon reaching the spraying area, resulting in low spraying efficiency. Furthermore, relying solely on gravity and normal water pressure for spraying can lead to flow interruptions due to pesticide concentration after prolonged application.

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings, the designer has actively researched and innovated in order to create a splicing device suitable for agricultural drones, making it more valuable for industrial use. Utility Model Content

[0037] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit its scope.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 2 This is a spraying device suitable for agricultural drones, comprising a main body. Its unique feature is that the main body includes a material storage and spraying device 1, with a drive control device 2 located at its upper end. The drive control device 2 coordinates and controls the spraying operation of the material storage and spraying device 1. Specifically, the material storage and spraying device 1 includes a storage tank 3 with a liquid inlet hole and a movable sealing plug 4. This allows for liquid filling during material preparation and enables effective liquid sealing through the movable sealing plug 4. Simultaneously, to ensure effective spray guidance, several spraying components are connected to the bottom of the storage tank 3. To meet the need for flowing spraying of relatively viscous pesticide solutions, a stirring device is installed inside the storage tank 3.

[0039] During implementation, the drive control device 2 includes a mounting box 5, within which a drive assembly 6 connected to the stirring device is installed. This provides driving power to the stirring device, facilitating its rotation for stirring the liquid medicine. Considering the need to increase the pressure in the storage tank 3, allowing for better pressurized spraying of the liquid medicine through the spraying assembly and better preventing improper clogging, a pressure applying device 7 is installed inside the mounting box 5, and is electrically connected to the storage tank 3. Simultaneously, to meet the requirements of long-endurance autonomous drive operation, a power supply module 8 and a control module 9 are also installed inside the mounting box 5. The power supply module 8 is electrically connected to the drive assembly 6 and the pressure applying device 7, and the control module 9 is electrically connected to the drive assembly 6, the pressure applying device 7, and the drive assembly 6.

[0040] Furthermore, to achieve better mixing, the mixing device includes a mixing rod 10 connected to the drive assembly 6. Several mounting blocks 11 are spaced apart on the mixing rod 10, and disturbance rods 12 are horizontally mounted on the mounting blocks 11. Blades 13 are mounted at both ends of the disturbance rods 12. Thus, as the mixing rod 10 rotates, the disturbance rods 12 can drive the blades 13 to agitate the liquid, preventing improper clogging of the spraying assembly. Simultaneously, this improves the flow efficiency of the liquid and increases the final spraying rate.

[0041] According to a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the spraying assembly includes a funnel structure 14 located at the bottom of the storage tank 3, with a spray pipe 15 extending downward from the funnel structure 14, and a spraying mechanism installed on the spray pipe 15. During implementation, the spraying mechanism is a spray head 16; or, the spraying mechanism is a single-hole irrigation head 17. This allows for regionalized spraying coverage or independent irrigation of specific cultivation locations, meeting the actual spraying needs of different pesticides such as insecticides and fertilizers, depending on the usage environment. During implementation, under normal hydraulic differential conditions, the drone will not (or only will) experience leakage during material delivery; operation will only be initiated after the pressure device 7 is activated. If leakage is a concern, a disposable plug can be fitted onto the spraying mechanism, which can be flushed away by the liquid flow after use, preventing unnecessary leakage during drone delivery.

[0042] Furthermore, to ensure a stable connection, the mounting block 11 consists of two symmetrically distributed clamping blocks that hold the stirring rod 10. These clamping blocks are connected by connecting screws. Simultaneously, to accommodate the volume of the storage tank 3, achieve optimal stirring to agitate the liquid, prevent localized coagulation, and meet the flow requirements of viscous liquids, the clamping blocks are equipped with transverse limiting grooves. The end of the agitator 12 is embedded in these grooves and held by the clamping blocks. The blade 13 is connected to the agitator 12 via connecting screws. This allows the blade 13 to be positioned optimally for liquid flow. Moreover, to achieve an appropriate flow rate during stirring and prevent abnormal upper or lower layer flow, ensuring uniform stirring as much as possible, the blade 13 is arranged in a non-horizontally staggered configuration with an inwardly concave arc structure.

[0043] In practical implementation, this invention features a positioning base 18 installed inside the storage tank 3, with a bearing assembly 19 mounted on the positioning base 18. The lower end of the stirring rod 10 is connected to the bearing assembly 19. This ensures that even if the stirring rod 10 rotates at relatively high speeds, causing flow obstruction, its lower end is well-limited, preventing unnecessary vibrations and ensuring the normal flight attitude of the drone. Furthermore, considering the defined drive operation, the drive assembly 6 is a motor, and the power supply module 8 is a battery assembly. This meets the requirements for long-term operation and continuous spraying. Considering the configuration needs of various working conditions, the control module 9 is a microcontroller, an industrial computer, or a PLC. Appropriate components can be selected according to actual needs to reduce implementation costs; a commercially available control motherboard with a microcontroller is typically preferred. Moreover, to facilitate remote independent start-up and data transmission during actual operation, the control module 9 is connected to an auxiliary communication module, which can be a WIFI module or a 5G module.

[0044] Furthermore, in order to meet the requirement of continuous pressure supply, the pressure application device 7 includes an air pump. The air outlet of the air pump is connected to the storage tank 3, and the air inlet of the air pump is connected to the end of the air guide filter. The end of the air guide filter is installed on the outside of the hanging box 5.

[0045] During implementation, in order to connect with the pre-set mounting device of the drone, several lifting rods 20 are installed around the upper periphery of the mounting box 5 of this utility model, and limit buckles 21 are distributed on the lifting rods 20. Usually, agricultural drones have a lifting frame at the bottom, and the lifting frame is equipped with a lifting ring. After the limit buckles 21 are inserted into the lifting ring, they can be clamped by external fixing clips or tied with rope.

[0046] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0047] The liquid medicine to be sprayed is poured in through the inlet. Then, depending on the viscosity of the liquid medicine, the stirring device is selected to start stirring during the feeding process or to "preheat" the stirring after it reaches the spraying area.

[0048] When spraying is required, the pressurizing device 7 starts working to pressurize the internal environment of the storage tank 3. Then, the liquid medicine is sprayed out from the spraying assembly.

[0049] Even if the pesticide solution condenses locally at the feed end of the spraying unit during spraying, the stirring device can break up the condensation in time to ensure smooth spraying.

[0050] As can be seen from the above textual description and the accompanying drawings, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0051] 1. It can stir the medicine solution, so as to ensure the smooth spraying of medicine solutions of various viscosities and avoid blockage.

[0052] 2. Spraying can be assisted by a pressure device to achieve better spraying pressure and meet different coverage needs.

[0053] 3. The blade distribution can achieve better coverage of the stirring area, realizing the stirring of the entire liquid in the storage tank.

[0054] 4. It can be docked with existing agricultural drone mounting frames to ensure a stable connection.

[0055] 5. The overall structure is simple, making it easy to manufacture and use.

They are only for the purpose of facilitating the description of this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or structure referred to must have a specific orientation, or to operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0057] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
