The first adjusting rod slides along the top of the actuating frame, the return spring contracts, and the first adjusting rod slides along the depth adjustment port, thereby driving the actuating frame to rotate around the fixed axis. The actuating rod pushes the actuating plate to move, which in turn causes the depth limiting frame to rotate around the connection point, changing the height of the depth limiting wheel. This adjusts the height difference between the bottom of the furrow opener and the bottom of the depth limiting wheel. The position of the furrow opener remains unchanged, only the height of the depth limiting wheel is changed, to prevent the furrow opener connection from loosening and causing a decrease in furrowing accuracy. The operation is simpler and less labor-intensive.

[0015] Next, release the handle. Under the action of the return spring, the positioning pin is inserted into the positioning hole to position the handle, preventing it from shifting or shaking, and ensuring the accuracy of the groove.

[0016] 2. A pressing component is provided. Pulling the second adjusting rod along the pressing adjustment port causes the pressing plate to rotate around the connection point, which in turn causes the inverted T-shaped transmission plate to rotate around the connection point, pulling the tension spring to extend and causing the pressing frame to rotate around the connection point, changing the height of the pressing wheel. This allows the soil in the trench to be squeezed with appropriate force after the furrow is opened and sown. The depth limiting component and the pressing component work together to improve the sowing effect. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0028] Example: Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution for a depth limiting wheel adjustment mechanism, including a frame 1, with a trencher 2 symmetrically installed in the middle of the frame 1, and a depth limiting component 3 installed in the middle of the frame 1.

[0029] A depth adjustment port 301 is provided on the top surface of the frame 1. A first adjustment rod 302 is movably installed inside the depth adjustment port 301. A handle 303 is welded to the top of the first adjustment rod 302. The bottom end of the first adjustment rod 302 movably passes through the top of the actuating frame 304. A limit ring 305 is fixedly sleeved at the bottom end of the first adjustment rod 302 inside the actuating frame 304. A fixed shaft 306 is rotatably installed through the bottom end of the actuating frame 304. Actuating rods 307 are welded to both sides of the actuating frame 304. A depth limiting frame 308 is connected to the frame 1 below the actuating frame 304 via a rotating shaft. An actuating plate 309 is welded to the top of the depth limiting frame 308 near the actuating rod 307. A depth limiting wheel 310 is installed at the bottom end of the depth limiting frame 308 via a rotating shaft. The longitudinal section of 304 is U-shaped. There are two depth limiting frames 308, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the depth limiting wheel 310 to facilitate the stability of the depth limiting frames 308. The top surface of the frame 1 is evenly provided with positioning holes 311 on both sides of the depth adjustment port 301. The bottom surface of the handle 303 is symmetrically welded with positioning pins 312. The positioning holes 311 and positioning pins 312 are transition fit. The depth adjustment port 301 of the frame 1 is an arc-shaped curved surface to facilitate the docking and fixing of the positioning holes 311 and positioning pins 312. The top of the first adjusting rod 302 is slidably sleeved with a compression sleeve 313 inside the frame 1. The first adjusting rod 302 is sleeved with a return spring 314 between the compression sleeve 313 and the limiting ring 305.

[0030] One end of the frame 1 is equipped with a pressing assembly 4, which includes a pressing adjustment port 401, a bayonet 402, a second adjusting rod 403, a pressing rotating plate 404, an inverted T-shaped transmission plate 405, a tension spring 406, a pressing frame 407, and a pressing wheel 408.

[0031] One end of the frame 1 has a pressing adjustment port 401, and slots 402 are evenly distributed on one side of the pressing adjustment port 401. A second adjusting rod 403 is movably installed inside the pressing adjustment port 401. A pressing rotating plate 404 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the second adjusting rod 403. The middle part of the pressing rotating plate 404 is rotatably connected to the frame 1 via a screw. The bottom end of the pressing rotating plate 404 is snapped into an inverted T-shaped transmission plate 405. The top end of the inverted T-shaped transmission plate 405 is rotatably connected to the frame 1 via bolts. The frame 1 has a T-shaped transmission plate 405 with one end of a tension spring 406 attached to both ends. A compaction frame 407 is symmetrically installed on one end of the frame 1. A compaction wheel 408 is symmetrically installed on the bottom end of the compaction frame 407 via a rotating shaft. The frame 1 has a compaction adjustment port 401 with an arc-shaped curved surface. The compaction wheel 408 is aligned with the trencher 2 to facilitate compaction of the soil by the compaction wheel 408. The other end of the tension spring 406 is attached to the top of the compaction frame 407 near the compaction wheel 408.

[0032] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: When it is necessary to adjust the depth of the sowing furrow, pull the handle 303 upward until the positioning pin 312 disengages from the positioning hole 311. At this time, the extrusion sleeve 313 extrudes the inner top surface of the extruder frame 1, the first adjusting rod 302 slides along the top of the actuating frame 304, the return spring 314 retracts, and pulls the first adjusting rod 302 along the depth adjustment port 301 to slide, thereby driving the actuating frame 304 to rotate around the fixed shaft 306. The actuating rod 307 will push the actuating plate 309 to move, thereby limiting the movement of the sowing furrow. The deep frame 308 rotates around the connection point, changing the height of the depth limiting wheel 310, thereby adjusting the height difference between the bottom of the trencher 2 and the bottom of the depth limiting wheel 310. This height difference is the trenching depth. Then, the handle 303 is released. Under the action of the return spring 314, the positioning pin 312 is inserted into the positioning hole 311 to position the handle 303 and prevent the handle 303 from shifting or shaking. The position of the trencher 2 remains unchanged. Only the height of the depth limiting wheel 310 is changed to prevent the trencher 2 connection from loosening and causing a decrease in trenching accuracy. The operation is simpler and less strenuous.

[0033] Next, pull the second adjusting rod 403 along the pressing adjustment port 401. The second adjusting rod 403 drives the pressing plate 404 to rotate around the connection point, which in turn drives the inverted T-shaped transmission plate 405 to rotate around the connection point, pulling the tension spring 406 to extend, driving the pressing frame 407 to rotate around the connection point, changing the height of the pressing wheel 408, so that the soil dug in the trench can be squeezed with appropriate force after the trenching and sowing are completed. After the adjustment is completed, the second adjusting rod 403 is locked into the locking slot 402 and fixed. The depth limiting component 3 and the pressing component 4 cooperate with each other to make the sowing effect better.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
