Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seeding and metering technology, specifically to a metering device with integrated functions of intercropping, sowing, and fertilization. Background Technology

[0002] In agricultural production, sowing has always been an important procedure. Intercropping refers to the planting of two or more crops in rows or strips on the same field during the same growing season. Intercropping utilizes the spatial structure principle of the community to make full use of light, space and time resources to increase crop yield.

[0003] Existing intercropping sowing equipment relies on centrifugal force to throw seeds onto baffles for sowing. However, the uniformity of centrifugal force is easily affected by rotation speed, seed shape, and coefficient of friction. This can easily lead to uneven sowing at both low and high speeds. When the rotation speed is too low, the centrifugal force is insufficient, and seeds tend to accumulate in a localized area on the baffle. When the rotation speed is too high, seeds may be thrown outside the intended sowing area, resulting in missed sowing or double sowing, which can easily affect sowing efficiency and effectiveness.

[0047] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0048] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The seed metering device, which integrates intercropping, sowing, and fertilization, includes a frame 1, a seed trough shell 2, a rotatable clamping seed metering unit, an adjustment mechanism, a feeding mechanism, and a feeding mechanism. Multiple seed trough shells 2 are provided, all fixedly connected to the frame 1. Each seed trough shell 2 has a feeding port at its top and a discharge port at its bottom. Through the arrangement of the seed trough shell 2, the rotatable clamping seed metering unit, the adjustment mechanism, the feeding mechanism, and the feeding mechanism, seeds can be evenly arranged before sowing, reducing the likelihood of missed or duplicate sowing. Furthermore, the seed clamp 4 opens and closes within the trough to fix and release seeds, adapting to different types of seeds and improving sowing efficiency and effectiveness.

[0049] Each of the multiple seed trough housings 2 is equipped with a rotatable clamping seed metering unit for clamping and releasing seeds. The rotatable clamping seed metering unit includes: a lower trough plate 3, seed clips 4, a fixed shaft 5, a support spring 6, a sliding shaft 7, an upper trough plate 8, a joist 9, and a stepper motor 10. The lower trough plate 3 is rotatably connected to the inner bottom wall of the seed trough housing 2. Multiple sliding grooves are formed on the lower trough plate 3, and a seed clip 4 is slidably connected in each groove. A fixed shaft 5 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of each groove, and a support spring 6 is fixedly connected to each seed clip 4. The other end of each support spring 6 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide groove. Each fixed shaft 5 has a support spring 6 fitted on its circumferential surface. Each seed clamp 4 is fixedly connected to a slide shaft 7. The upper groove plate 8 is set at the top of the lower groove plate 3. Multiple drive grooves are opened on the upper groove plate 8. A slide shaft 7 is slidably arranged in each drive groove. The rib rod 9 is rotatably connected in the frame 1. The lower groove plate 3 and the upper groove plate 8 are both fixedly connected to the rib rod 9. The stepper motor 10 is installed in the frame 1. The output end of the stepper motor 10 is axially fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rib rod 9.

[0050] The stepper motor 10 drives the joist 9 to rotate. When the joist 9 rotates, it drives the lower groove plate 3 and the upper groove plate 8 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving multiple seed clips 4 to rotate synchronously. When the seed clip 4 rotates to the position of the fixed arc rod 11, it will move away from the center of the lower groove plate 3 along the arc of the arc rod 11, compressing the support spring 6, so that the sliding groove between the seed clip 4 and the lower groove plate 3 opens and closes to the size of the seed. As it rotates away from the position of the arc rod 11, the support spring 6 extends to clamp the seed clip 4 and continues to rotate. When the clamped seed rotates to the top of the discharge port, since the end of the seed clip 4 that contacts the seed has an arc chamfer, the seed falls freely through the discharge port into the channel conversion plate 19 for sowing.

[0051] Multiple seed trough housings 2 are equipped with adjustment mechanisms, each corresponding to a rotatable clamping seed metering unit. These mechanisms adjust the clamping force of the rotatable clamping seed metering units. Each adjustment mechanism includes an arc-shaped rod 11, a drive shaft 12, a rotating block 13, a telescopic rod 14, and a drive assembly. One end of the arc-shaped rod 11 is rotatably connected to the inner top wall of the seed trough housing 2. The drive shaft 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the arc-shaped rod 11. An arc-shaped groove is formed on the seed trough housing 2, and the drive shaft 12 is slidably disposed within this groove. The rotating block 13 is rotatably connected to the drive shaft 12. One end of the telescopic rod 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the rotating block 13. The drive assembly is located on the top of the seed trough housing 2. The drive assembly includes a fixed plate 15, a slider 16, a moving screw 17, and a first motor 18. Two fixed plates 15 are provided, and both fixed plates 15 are fixedly connected to the top of the seed groove housing 2. The slider 16 is slidably connected between the two fixed plates 15 through a sliding rod 23. The other end of the telescopic rod 14 is fixedly connected to the slider 16. The moving screw 17 is rotatably connected to the two fixed plates 15. The slider 16 has a screw hole, and the moving screw 17 is threaded into the screw hole. The first motor 18 is installed on one of the fixed plates 15. The output end of the first motor 18 passes through the fixed plate 15 and is fixedly connected to the moving screw 17.

[0052] The first motor 18 drives the moving screw 17 to rotate. When the moving screw 17 rotates, it drives the slider 16 to move on the slide rod 23. When the slider 16 moves, it drives the telescopic rod 14 to move. When the telescopic rod 14 moves, it drives the rotating block 13 and the drive shaft 12 to move along the arc groove, thereby adjusting the position of the arc rod 11 and thus adjusting the opening distance of the seed clamp 4. Since the arc groove has a certain curvature, the telescopic rod 14 extends and retracts adaptively when the drive shaft 12 moves along the arc groove.

[0053] The feeding mechanism is set inside the frame 1 and corresponds to multiple discharge ports. The feeding mechanism includes a channel conversion plate 19 and a partition plate 20. The channel conversion plate 19 is fixedly connected inside the frame 1. There are two partition plates 20, both of which are fixedly connected inside the channel conversion plate 19. The two partition plates 20 divide the channel conversion plate 19 into three feeding spaces. One discharge port corresponds to one feeding space. Seeds falling from the discharge port on the seed trough shell 2 enter the feeding space, which facilitates the sowing of different types of seeds.

[0054] The feeding mechanism is located at the top of the frame 1 and is used to feed different seeds. The feeding mechanism includes a feeding tray 21 and a guide tray 22. The feeding tray 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the frame 1. There are multiple guide trays 22, each guide tray 22 corresponding to a feeding port. The multiple guide trays 22 facilitate the feeding of different types of seeds into each seed trough shell 2 for sowing.

[0055] Working principle: This seed metering device, which integrates intercropping, sowing, and fertilization functions, requires the channel conversion plate 19 to be connected to external sowing equipment first. Then, the first motor 18 drives the moving screw 17 to rotate. When the moving screw 17 rotates, it drives the slider 16 to move on the slide rod 23. The slider 16 moves, driving the telescopic rod 14 to move. The telescopic rod 14 moves, driving the rotating block 13 and the drive shaft 12 along the arc-shaped groove, thereby adjusting the position of the arc-shaped rod 11 and thus adjusting the opening distance of the seed clamp 4. Because the arc-shaped groove has a certain curvature, the telescopic rod 14 adapts to the movement of the drive shaft 12 along the arc-shaped groove. After the arc-shaped rod 11 is adjusted, different types of seeds to be sown are poured into multiple guide plates 22. The seeds are then... Due to gravity, the seeds fall into the seed trough housing 2. During this process, the stepper motor 10 drives the rib 9 to rotate. When the rib 9 rotates, it drives the lower trough plate 3 and the upper trough plate 8 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving multiple seed clips 4 to rotate synchronously. When the seed clip 4 rotates to the position of the fixed arc rod 11, the sliding shaft 7 abuts against the arc rod 11, and the seed clip 4 moves away from the center of the lower trough plate 3 along the arc of the arc rod 11, compressing the support spring 6, so that the sliding groove between the seed clip 4 and the lower trough plate 3 opens and closes to a size suitable for the seeds. As it rotates away from the position of the arc rod 11, the support spring 6 extends to make the seed clip 4 clamp the seeds and continue to rotate. When the clamped seeds rotate to the top of the discharge port, because the end of the seed clip 4 that contacts the seeds has an arc chamfer, the seeds fall freely through the discharge port into the channel conversion plate 19 for sowing.

[0056] Additionally, due to the configuration of multiple rotatable clamping seed metering units, while two of the rotatable clamping seed metering units are used for sowing, another rotatable clamping seed metering unit can be used for fertilization, thus enabling simultaneous sowing and fertilization.

[0057] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
