Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of rain-increasing spraying devices, specifically a rain-increasing spraying device for ranches using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Background Technology

[0002] Pastures refer to grasslands suitable for grazing. When pastures encounter prolonged drought, it is necessary to use drones for rain enhancement to assist in precipitation. Drone-based weather modification mainly involves dispersing catalysts to induce artificial rain. Current technologies primarily use a free-feeding method from a hopper to directly disperse the catalyst, which easily leads to uneven distribution, clogging during the dispersal process, poor dispersion, and ultimately, ineffective rain enhancement, making it inconvenient to use. Therefore, we propose a drone-based rain enhancement spraying device for pastures. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a rain-inducing spraying device for ranches using drones, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, where the catalyst is directly dispersed by the free feeding method of the feed box when the drone disperses the catalyst. This method is prone to uneven dispersion of the catalyst, blockage during the dispersal process, and poor dispersion effect, thus failing to achieve a better rain-inducing effect.

[0024] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0025] The rain-inducing spraying device for ranches using drones includes a storage bin 1, with a storage trough 10 inside the storage bin 1. A rotating shaft 19 is rotatably connected inside the storage trough 10. A flipping rod 11 is fixedly connected at equal intervals to the outside of the rotating shaft 19. A fixing frame 3 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage bin 1. A discharge frame 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing frame 3.

A guide frame 5 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the outside of the guide seat 15. The guide frame 5 is connected to the discharge frame 4.

[0026] It is understood that this utility model can store the rain-enhancing catalyst through the storage tank 10, and the rotation of the rotating shaft 19 drives the flipping rod 11 to rotate, which flips the catalyst to prevent blockage. The setting of the guide seat 15, the guide trough 16 and the guide frame 5 facilitates the delivery of the catalyst to the discharge frame 4. The setting of the fan 18 and the guide pipe 7 can blow air into the interior of the discharge frame 4, thereby blowing out the catalyst for spraying, which is convenient for artificial rain enhancement.

[0027] Furthermore, a drive shaft 17 is rotatably connected inside the storage box 1, and the drive shaft 17 is connected to the rotating shaft 19 via a drive belt 20.

[0028] It is understood that the present invention drives the outer pulley of the rotating shaft 19 to rotate, thereby driving the outer pulley of the transmission shaft 17 to rotate through the transmission belt 20, which facilitates the rotation of the transmission shaft 17 and assists in feeding the catalyst.

[0029] Furthermore, a guide roller 13 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the drive shaft 17, and a storage trough 12 is provided at equal intervals on the outer side of the guide roller 13.

[0030] It is understood that the present invention facilitates the feeding and conveying of catalysts through the arrangement of the guide roller 13 and the storage tank 12.

[0031] Furthermore, a fixed box 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the storage box 1, and a drive motor 6 is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixed box 2. The output end of the drive motor 6 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 19.

[0032] It is understood that this utility model uses a drive motor 6 to drive the rotating shaft 19 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 19 drives the flipping rod 11 to rotate to flip the catalyst and prevent blockage.

[0033] Furthermore, a feeding port 8 is provided on the top of the storage box 1, and mounting blocks 9 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the outside of the storage box 1.
