Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tobacco fertilization technology, specifically to a tobacco fertilizer applicator. Background Technology

[0002] Tobacco leaves are the leaves harvested from the tobacco plant and processed for the production of various tobacco products. They are widely cultivated globally and are an important economic crop in many countries. The quality of tobacco leaves is affected by a variety of factors, including soil conditions, climate, and agricultural management practices such as irrigation and fertilization.

[0003] When fertilizing tobacco leaves, existing fertilizer applicators have a fixed rear shovel height. When fertilizing on different terrains, it is necessary to manually control the tilt angle of the fertilizer applicator to ensure that the rear shovel is in contact with the ground. During the fertilization process, the operator needs to maintain the posture to keep the rear shovel in contact with the ground, which reduces work efficiency and wastes time and human resources. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model proposes a tobacco fertilizer applicator, the specific technical solution of which is as follows:

[0005] A tobacco fertilizer applicator includes a mounting platform, a front shovel, and a rear shovel. A hopper and a single wheel are located on the underside of the mounting platform. The hopper is connected to a storage box. The front and rear shovels are respectively arranged on the front and rear sides of the hopper. The front shovel is connected to the mounting platform via a fixing rod, and a height adjustment assembly is provided between the rear shovel and the mounting platform. The height adjustment assembly includes a telescopic rod and two stabilizing rods. The two stabilizing rods are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the telescopic rod. The two ends of the telescopic rod are connected to the mounting platform and the rear shovel, respectively, and the two ends of the stabilizing rods are rotatably connected to the mounting platform and the rear shovel, respectively. The stabilizing rod includes a sliding shell, a sliding rod, and a spring disposed within the sliding shell. The sliding rod is slidably mounted within the sliding shell, and one end of the sliding rod abuts against the spring.

[0006] Furthermore, the telescopic rod is an electrically operated push rod.

[0007] Furthermore, it also includes a mixing and crushing assembly, which includes a fixed base and a motor mounted on the fixed base. The fixed base is located at one end of the hopper, and an internal gear ring is provided inside the fixed base. The output end of the motor is connected to a drive gear, and multiple driven gears are provided between the internal gear ring and the drive gear.

[0027] The working process is as follows: First, the fertilizer is poured into the storage box 6. Then, the fertilizer enters the hopper 8. The motor 16 is started, which drives the drive gear 18 fixed at its output end to rotate, thereby driving multiple driven gears 19 to rotate. The mixing roller 21 also rotates. The rotation stirs and crushes the fertilizer to ensure that the fertilizer particles meet the requirements and are better absorbed by the soil. The overall height of the rear shovel 9 is changed by adjusting the length of the telescopic rod 11 according to the different ground elevations. When the telescopic rod 11 moves, the sliding rod 14 in the sliding shell 13 moves up and down accordingly. The spring 24 provides the necessary buffer and support to ensure the stability of the equipment at different heights.

[0028] The rear shovel 9 is located on the lower side of the mounting platform 1, and a fixed plate 10 is fixedly connected to its upper end. The rear shovel 9 is used to clean the ground after fertilization and keep the soil flat. The fixed plate 10 and the mounting platform 1 form a stable structure through the telescopic rod 11 and the stabilizing rod. The telescopic rod 11 connects the mounting platform 1 and the fixed plate 10. The height of the rear shovel 9 can be controlled by adjusting its length to adapt to different operating needs. The spring 24 uses its elastic properties to provide cushioning and support, ensuring that the sliding rod 14 remains stable during operation. The length can be adjusted with the electric push rod to control the height of the rear shovel 9.

[0029] Mounting platform 1 serves as the base platform for the entire fertilizer applicator, used to fix and support other components, ensuring the stability and ease of operation of the fertilizer applicator during use. Fixing rod 2 is fixedly connected to the lower end of mounting platform 1, and a front shovel 3 is fixedly connected to its lower end. This shovel primarily guides the fertilizer applicator forward and helps clear obstacles in front, ensuring an unobstructed fertilization path. The front shovel 3 is fixedly connected to the lower end of fixing rod 2; its front end design effectively trenches the soil, facilitating fertilizer application. Mounting frame 4 is fixedly connected to the lower end of mounting platform 1, with a single wheel 5 rotatably connected to its inner surface, providing movement support for the fertilizer applicator and allowing for easy movement in the field. The single wheel 5 rotatably connects to the inner surface of mounting frame 4, facilitating flexible movement of the fertilizer applicator on different terrains and reducing the workload of operators. Discharge hopper 8 is fixedly connected to the lower end of mounting platform 1, with its upper end penetrating the upper end of mounting platform 1, guiding the fertilizer in storage box 6 to the fertilization position, ensuring even fertilizer distribution. Fixing base 15 is fixedly connected to discharge hopper 8. One end of the fixed base 15 provides a mounting base for the mixing and crushing assembly. The driven gear 19 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of one side of the fixed base 15. One end of the mixing roller 21 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of one side of the feeding hopper 8, and the other end moves through the inner wall of the other side of the feeding hopper 8 and rotates coaxially with the driven gear 19. It is responsible for mixing and crushing the fertilizer inside the feeding hopper 8 to ensure that the fertilizer is of uniform size. The motor 16 is fixed to one side of the fixed base 15. The output end moves through one side of the fixed base 15 and is fixedly connected to the drive gear 18 to provide power to the mixing and crushing mechanism. The drive gear 18 is fixed to the output end of the motor 16 and meshes with the driven gear 19 to transmit power to drive the mixing roller 21 to work, thereby mixing and crushing the fertilizer inside the feeding hopper 8. The fertilizer applicator mixes and crushes the poured mixed feed to ensure that the fertilizer particles meet the requirements and are better absorbed by the soil. This avoids the need for secondary crushing and fertilization, improves the working efficiency of the fertilizer applicator, and reduces the waste of time and human resources.
