[0002] Vegetables are a general term for a large category of edible plants, usually including leafy vegetables, root vegetables, fruits, cauliflower, legumes, and fungi and algae. They are an indispensable part of the human diet, and fertilization equipment is needed in the process of vegetable cultivation.
[0003] Currently, the traditional method of fertilizing vegetables is to directly apply fertilizer to the soil. This method makes it difficult to precisely control the amount of fertilizer applied, resulting in excessive fertilizer accumulation in some areas and insufficient fertilizer in others, leading to uneven fertilization and affecting vegetable growth. Furthermore, the installation spacing of the casters on existing fertilizer applicators is usually fixed. When the planting row spacing of the vegetables does not match the wheel spacing of the fertilizer applicator, the casters may accidentally run over the vegetables, causing damage to the plants. Utility Model Content

The rotating mechanism is located within the cylindrical body, with fan-shaped plates connected to both sides, which are in contact with the inner wall of the cylindrical body. Weighing plates are connected to the other two sides of the rotating mechanism. A discharge pipe is connected to the bottom surface of the cylindrical body, penetrating the base plate. The two spacing adjustment mechanisms are respectively located on both sides of the top surface of the base plate, and each spacing adjustment mechanism passes through the base plate and is connected to two casters.
[0007] This utility model discloses a quantitative fertilization device for vegetables, which can perform quantitative fertilization, so that the fertilizer is evenly distributed and the vegetables grow healthily.

[0019] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Rather, the embodiments of the present invention include all variations, modifications, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
[0020] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, describes a vegetable quantitative fertilization device according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0021] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a vegetable quantitative fertilization device according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a base plate 10, a fertilizer box 20, a rotating mechanism 40, and two spacing adjustment mechanisms 60.
[0022] The fertilizer box 20 is located above the base plate 10. Both sides of the fertilizer box 20 are equipped with supports 11, which are set on the base plate 10. The bottom surface of the fertilizer box 20 is connected to the discharge pipe 21, which is equipped with a solenoid valve 22. Both supports 11 are connected to the pillars 12, and a cylinder 30 is set between the two pillars 12. The discharge pipe 21 is connected to the cylinder 30.
[0023] It should be noted that the fertilizer tank 20 is equipped with a stirring rod, and a motor is located on the top of the fertilizer tank 20 to drive the stirring rod to rotate. The stirring rod can stir the fertilizer to make it more uniform. The top surface of the fertilizer tank 20 is equipped with a feed inlet, and the outer wall of the fertilizer tank 20 is equipped with an observation window to facilitate the staff to observe the amount of fertilizer inside the fertilizer tank 20.
[0024] The rotating mechanism 40 is installed inside the cylinder 30. Sector plates 51 are connected to both sides of the rotating mechanism 40. The sector plates 51 are in contact with the inner wall of the cylinder 30. Weighing plates 52 are connected to the other two sides of the rotating mechanism 40. A feeding pipe 53 is connected to the bottom surface of the cylinder 30 and passes through the bottom plate 10.
[0025] It should be noted that the two sector plates 51 divide the interior of the cylinder 30 into two cavities.
[0026] Two spacing adjustment mechanisms 60 are respectively set on both sides of the top surface of the base plate 10, and the spacing adjustment mechanisms 60 pass through the base plate 10 and are connected to two universal wheels 70.
[0027] Specifically, the staff first simultaneously activates two spacing adjustment mechanisms 60 to adjust the spacing between the two universal wheels 70 to adapt to the planting row spacing of vegetables, thus completing the position adjustment of the four universal wheels 70.
[0028] The staff then poured the fertilizer into the fertilizer box 20, and then pushed the device so that the two casters 70 were positioned on both sides of the vegetables, the discharge pipe 53 was positioned above the vegetables, and the solenoid valve 22 was opened to allow the fertilizer to enter the upper cavity of the cylinder 30 from the discharge pipe 21. Then the weighing plate 52 weighed the fertilizer, and after the preset weight value was reached, the solenoid valve 22 was closed.
[0029] Then, the rotating mechanism 40 is activated to drive the two sector plates 51 to rotate 180 degrees, causing the upper cavity to rotate downwards and discharge the fertilizer through the discharge pipe 53, thus quantitatively applying the fertilizer. The lower cavity rotates upwards, and the solenoid valve 22 opens again, allowing the fertilizer to re-enter the upper cavity. The above steps are then repeated until the quantitative fertilization is completed.
[0030] This utility model provides a vegetable quantitative fertilization device that can perform quantitative fertilization, ensuring even distribution of fertilizer and guaranteeing the healthy growth of vegetables. In addition, it can adjust the wheel spacing to match the planting row spacing, thereby effectively avoiding the situation where the casters crush the vegetable plants.
[0031] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the rotating mechanism 40 includes a rotating shaft 41, a mounting sleeve 42, and a first driver 43. The rotating shaft 41 is rotatably disposed inside the cylinder 30, the mounting sleeve 42 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 41, two sector plates 51 are respectively connected to the two sides of the mounting sleeve 42, the first driver 43 is disposed on one side of the cylinder 30, and the output end of the first driver 43 is connected to the rotating shaft 41.
[0032] It should be noted that the first driver 43 described in this embodiment can be a servo motor. The servo motor can drive the rotating shaft 41 and the mounting sleeve 42 to rotate at a certain angle, thereby driving the two sector plates 51 to rotate and swap the positions of the two cavities, so as to quantitatively feed the fertilizer.
[0033] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 3As shown, the spacing adjustment mechanism 60 includes a drive box 61, a second driver 62, a bidirectional screw 63, two threaded sleeves 64, and two movable plates 65.
[0034] The drive box 61 is mounted on the base plate 10, the second driver 62 is mounted on the inner wall of the drive box 61, the bidirectional screw 63 is connected to the output end of the second driver 62, the two threaded sleeves 64 are threadedly connected to the center sides of the bidirectional screw 63 respectively, the two moving plates 65 are connected to the two threaded sleeves 64 respectively, and the base plate 10 has sliding holes 13 on both sides that match the moving plates 65. The two moving plates 65 pass through the sliding holes 13 and are connected to the two universal wheels 70 respectively.
[0035] It should be noted that the second driver 62 described in this embodiment can be a motor. The second driver 62 can drive the bidirectional screw 63 to rotate, thereby driving the two threaded sleeves 64 to move towards each other, which in turn drives the two moving plates 65 to move towards each other. During this process, the sliding hole 13 provides guidance for the moving plates 65, so that they move in a straight line, thereby completing the adjustment of the distance between the two universal wheels 70, adapting to the planting row spacing of vegetables, and avoiding collisions or crushing of vegetable plants due to improper distance when the device moves in the field.
[0036] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, both weighing plates 52 are equipped with weighing sensors 54.
[0037] Understandably, by setting up the weighing sensor 54, the weight of the fertilizer can be accurately measured, making it easier to dispense the fertilizer in a quantitative manner when fertilizing vegetables.
[0038] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, a push handle 14 is provided on one side of the top surface of the base plate 10, and an anti-slip sleeve 15 is provided on the push handle 14.
[0039] Understandably, the push handle 14 is designed to facilitate the movement of the device. The anti-slip sleeve 15 is made of rubber, which not only increases the friction between the operator's hand and the push handle, but also makes the grip more comfortable due to its softness.
[0040] In summary, the vegetable quantitative fertilization device of this utility model embodiment can perform quantitative fertilization, so that the fertilizer is evenly distributed and the vegetables are healthy. In addition, the wheel spacing can be adjusted to adapt to the planting row spacing, thereby effectively avoiding the situation where the casters crush the vegetable plants.
