Abstract
Description
Fertilizer spreading mechanism of a fertilizer spreader Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fertilizer spreading technology, and more specifically, to a fertilizer spreading mechanism of a fertilizer spreader. Background Technology
[0002] In existing technologies, fertilizer spreading mechanisms of fertilizer spreaders often face several key problems, especially the difficulty in continuous and directional spreading of fertilizer and the problem that the discharge pipe is prone to blockage and is difficult to clear. This seriously affects the working efficiency and service life of fertilizer spreaders.
[0003] In traditional fertilizer spreaders, the quantitative distribution of fertilizer relies on simple mechanical or airflow control systems. However, these systems often fail to precisely control the directional application of fertilizer. Uneven fertilizer flow during operation can easily lead to discontinuous and uneven application, or even fertilizer blockage or retention. For example, fertilizer can easily get stuck in the spreading mechanism, especially with moist or sticky fertilizers. Because fertilizer spreaders lack effective continuous control mechanisms, fertilizer accumulation and retention frequently occur, significantly reducing the speed and uniformity of application.
[0004] As a crucial part of fertilizer delivery in a fertilizer spreader, blockages in the discharge pipe directly affect the smooth operation of the entire fertilizer spreading process. During the fertilizer delivery process, blockages often occur due to the viscosity or large particle size of the fertilizer, especially in humid or low-temperature environments, where the fluidity of the fertilizer decreases, making it easy to accumulate and form blockages in the discharge pipe. Once a blockage occurs, traditional fertilizer spreaders usually rely on manual cleaning or rough mechanical methods to clear it, which not only increases labor costs but may also damage other parts of the equipment and even lead to accelerated wear and tear on components after long-term use. Summary of the Invention
[0005] (a) Technical problems to be solved
[0006] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a fertilizer spreading mechanism for a fertilizer spreader to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art, such as the difficulty in continuous and directional spreading of fertilizer and the easy blockage and difficulty in clearing of the discharge pipe.
[0007] (II) Technical Solution
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a fertilizer spreading mechanism for a fertilizer spreader, comprising a control box, a quantitative flipping mechanism, a discharge and unblocking mechanism, and an unblocking auxiliary mechanism.

The tensioning spring is installed between adjacent centripetal columns. The rotating column is installed on one end face of the rotating sleeve. The rotating column rotates sequentially between adjacent centripetal columns, so that the outer rotating sleeve drives the two sets of rotating sleeves to rotate stably.
[0010] The present invention is further configured such that an adding hopper is installed on the top end of the control box, and fertilizer is added to the control box through the adding hopper. The adding hopper makes it easy to add fertilizer into the control box, simplifies the operation process, and reduces the risk of fertilizer leakage and waste.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that a main wheel is installed at the output end of the drive motor, and a driven wheel is installed at one end of the rotating shaft. A transmission belt is installed between the main wheel and the driven wheel. Through the cooperation of the main wheel and the driven wheel, the transmission belt can effectively transmit power from the motor to the rotating shaft, ensuring the stable operation of the fertilizer spreading mechanism. At the same time, by adjusting the wheel speed, the spreading rate and uniformity of the fertilizer spreader can be controlled.
[0013] The present invention is further configured such that a connecting pipe is provided through the bottom end of the control box, and one end of the connecting pipe is connected to one end of the unblocking pipe.

The directional shaft on rotating shaft 3 drives multiple sets of directional grooves to rotate. The directional grooves guide the fertilizer to scraper 6. Scraper 6 pushes the fertilizer from the top to the bottom of control box 1, ensuring that the fertilizer is turned evenly and achieving quantitative discharge. After quantitative turning, the fertilizer is discharged through unblocking pipe 7. Rotating sleeve 8 and rotary push block 10, under the action of rotary push spring 11, drive unblocking plate 13 and limiting plate 12 to work together to ensure that the fertilizer can be discharged smoothly and to avoid blockage.

[0038] When the auxiliary mechanism is in operation, the outer rotating sleeve 14 is limited to rotate on the outer wall of the unblocking pipe 7. It is connected to the rotating sleeves 8 arranged symmetrically on the upper and lower sides through the linkage plate 15.
