Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of agricultural production, and in particular to a fertilizer granule spreader. Background Technology

[0002] Agricultural production mainly involves four stages: cultivation, planting, management, and harvesting. Current sowing methods include manual and mechanical methods. Manual sowing is labor-intensive, inefficient, and uneven. Overly dense sowing affects seed quality, while overly sparse sowing wastes farmland resources.

[0003] Existing fertilizer granule spreaders, such as the solid fertilizer spreader disclosed in utility model patent application number 201120403830.0, mainly include a storage hopper and a gearbox. The gearbox contains a gear transmission assembly, and the driven gear of the gear transmission assembly is connected to a first and a second transmission shaft in a vertical direction. The bottom plate of the storage hopper has two discharge ports. Below the bottom plate is a first discharge adjustment plate, and below the first discharge adjustment plate is a second discharge adjustment plate. In use, the second discharge adjustment plate is first manually rotated to adjust it to a position for spreading the fertilizer to the left, right, or both directions. Then, the power unit is started, which drives the first discharge adjustment plate to rotate, causing the two first discharge ports of the first discharge adjustment plate to be misaligned with the discharge ports on the bottom plate. The power unit controls the degree of misalignment between the first discharge ports and the discharge ports.

[0004] However, most existing seeders are unable to apply fertilizer according to the distance traveled, and the travel speed can easily affect the fertilization effect. Moreover, the diameter of solid fertilizer particles is uneven, which may cause fertilizer to clog the discharge port and affect the spreading. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a fertilizer granule spreader that can not only spread fertilizer in appropriate amounts according to the travel distance to avoid uneven fertilizer spreading caused by different travel speeds, but also disperses and screens the fertilizer to ensure uniform fertilizer particle size.

The operator puts fertilizer into the storage mechanism, and the driver pushes the storage mechanism forward. The storage mechanism drives the rotating mechanism to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring mechanism to rotate and stir the fertilizer to prevent clumping. At the same time, it drives the vibrating mechanisms to rotate and tap the screen to prevent fertilizer from clogging the screen. The screened fertilizer falls into the spreading mechanism, which evenly spreads the fertilizer onto the land according to the travel distance.

The first rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the screen, and its input end is connected to the output end of the gearbox. The multiple sets of mixing rulers are all mounted on the first rotating shaft. The screen filters the fed fertilizer to prevent clumps of fertilizer from entering the spreading mechanism and affecting the discharge. At the same time, the gearbox drives the first rotating shaft to rotate, and the first rotating shaft drives the multiple sets of mixing rulers to rotate and break up the clumps of fertilizer.

[0010] Preferably, the spreading mechanism includes a discharge hopper, a uniform plate, a second rotating shaft, multiple sets of scrapers, and multiple sets of baffles.
