Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drone medicine box technology, specifically to a medicine box with pesticide mixing function and a drone. Background Technology

[0002] In modern agriculture, drone technology has been widely used in pesticide spraying operations. Drones can replace manual labor to spray pesticides on large areas of farmland by carrying pesticide tanks and spraying systems.

[0003] In existing technologies, pesticides in the drone's spray tank often fail to be completely discharged after spraying, remaining inside the pipes or nozzles, leading to crystalline deposits. These pesticide residues can corrode metal pipes or plastic parts, and the crystalline deposits can easily clog the nozzles, reducing spraying efficiency. Furthermore, when changing to different pesticides, the pesticide residues in the drone's spray tank may cause mixing reactions, producing toxic substances or reducing efficacy. Mixing pesticides of different densities can also result in different spraying effects, leading to inconsistent efficacy. Therefore, this invention designs a spray tank and drone with a pesticide mixing function.

[0004] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance the understanding of the overall background of this utility model and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a pesticide tank and drone with pesticide stirring function, so as to solve the problems of pesticide precipitation and crystallization in the drone's pesticide tank leading to equipment corrosion and blockage, cross-contamination risks, and uneven pesticide efficacy.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center," "longitudinal," "lateral," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating orientation or positional relationships, are based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first," "second," etc., may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more. Example

[0026] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a pesticide mixing box, including a box body 1, a pesticide inlet 15 on the box body 1, a detachable pesticide inlet cover 16 installed on the pesticide inlet 15, and a filter screen 17 installed inside the pesticide inlet 15.

[0027] Specifically, the prepared pesticide enters the housing 1 through the dosing port 15 and the filter screen 17.

[0028] In this embodiment, a stirring system is installed at the bottom of the box 1. The stirring system includes a jet mixer 2 and a water pump 3. The jet mixer 2 includes a water inlet 4 and a water sprayer 5. A water inlet pipe connector 13 is installed at the bottom of the water inlet 4, and a water inlet pipe 6 is connected through the water inlet pipe connector 13. The other end of the water inlet pipe 6 is connected to the water pump 3. A water outlet pipe connector 14 is installed at the bottom of the water sprayer 5, and a water outlet pipe 7 is connected through the water outlet pipe connector 14. The other end of the water pump 3 is connected to the water sprayer 5 through the water outlet pipe 7.

[0029] In this embodiment, the water inlet 4 has an open end design, and the pesticide inside the box 1 enters through the opening of the water inlet 4. The water sprayer 5 has an arc-shaped closed structure at the head end, and can be pressurized when spraying water. The water sprayer 5 has symmetrical jet nozzles 8 on both sides, and the height of the jet nozzles 8 is slightly higher than the bottom wall of the box 1.

[0030] Specifically, the water pump 3 draws pesticides from the tank 1. The pesticides flow through the inlet pipe through the opening of the water inlet 4, and after being pressurized by the water pump 3, they are sprayed out through the outlet pipe and the jet nozzle 8 of the sprayer 5 to flush the bottom wall of the tank 1 and prevent pesticide sedimentation. The sprayed pesticides then enter through the water inlet 4 and are ejected through the jet nozzle 8 of the sprayer 5, thus forming a circulation backflow in the tank 1 and completing the pesticide mixing operation in the tank 1.

[0031] In this embodiment, the jet agitator 2 is installed at the bottom of the housing 1 by a fixing device, and the jet agitator 2 is made of rubber with excellent sealing and waterproof performance.

[0032] Specifically, the fixing device includes an end cap 9, which has an internal thread inside. A mounting post 10 extends from the bottom of the housing 1, and the mounting post 10 has an external thread that mates with the end cap 9. The end cap 9 is fitted onto the mounting post 10 at the bottom of the housing 1 and is threadedly connected to the housing 1.

[0033] The jet stirrer 2 is provided with a mounting base 11, and the mounting base 11 has a flanged structure 12. The flanged structure 12 is clamped between the end cover 9 and the mounting post 10. The jet stirrer 2 is fixed to the bottom of the box body 1 by the end cover 9, which can effectively prevent the medicine from leaking out of the jet stirrer 2 and has a good sealing effect. Example

[0034] This embodiment provides a drone, including the pesticide mixing tank described in Embodiment 1.

[0035] Specifically, pesticides are prone to remain inside the tank 1, pipelines, and nozzles after spraying, leading to crystal deposition and damage to the equipment. The drone pesticide tank provided in this embodiment has a pesticide stirring function, which can stir the pesticide during flight and after spraying to prevent pesticide precipitation and crystallization in the tank 1, and can effectively improve the spraying and control effect.

[0036] Before the drone sprays, farmers can prepare the pesticide and inject it through the pesticide inlet 15 of the pesticide tank. During the flight, when the weight sensor on the drone (not shown in the figure) detects that the liquid pesticide inside the tank 1 is lower than the threshold, it can control the water pump 3 to start and activate the pesticide stirring function to prevent pesticide sedimentation.

[0037] After the spraying operation is completed, farmers can inject clean water into tank 1 and then start the mixing system. The clean water mixed with the pesticide solution will be discharged through the spraying system, which can effectively prevent pesticide solution from remaining in tank 1, pipelines and nozzles, and effectively avoid the risk of pesticide damage caused by mixing different pesticide solutions.

[0038] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
