Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of crop planting technology, specifically a fertilization device for strip intercropping. Background Technology

[0002] Strip intercropping is a highly efficient agricultural model that involves planting two or more crops in the same field at intervals according to a certain row ratio. It allows for the planting of two crops without blocking sunlight and while meeting the needs of both crops, thus maximizing space utilization. An example is corn-soybean strip intercropping. Currently, this strip intercropping model is widely used in many regions of my country, particularly in relatively flat areas such as river valleys and plains that are conducive to mechanized operations.

[0003] In the intercropping model, since each crop requires different types and amounts of fertilizer, different fertilizers need to be applied to the two crops after planting. Fertilizer application devices for strip intercropping are needed to achieve good growth results for both crops.

[0004] While existing fertilization devices for strip intercropping can reach between two rows of crops to apply fertilizer, they can only fertilize the side of each crop closest to the device. This causes fertilizer to accumulate on one side of the crop, preventing it from being evenly distributed around the root system. Consequently, roots tend to grow excessively towards the side with the densest fertilizer source, a phenomenon known as nutrient tropism. Meanwhile, the roots on the other side grow relatively weaker. For taller crops like corn, the root system on one side cannot stably support the stem, reducing the crop's resistance to lodging and affecting its growth. Utility Model Content

All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0033] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures. Furthermore, in the description of this utility model, terms such as "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0034] Examples, such as Figures 1-9 As shown, a fertilization device for strip intercropping includes a mobile frame 1 and two water and fertilizer tanks 2, as well as a fertilization mechanism and an adjustment mechanism. Both water and fertilizer tanks 2 are located above the mobile frame 1. Specifically, in actual use, the bottom of the mobile frame 1 is also equipped with a drive mechanism and a steering mechanism. When moving the mobile frame 1, the drive component drives the moving wheels to rotate, causing the mobile frame 1 to move forward or backward. The rotation component enables the moving wheels to turn, thereby enabling the mobile frame 1 to turn, making it convenient to move the mobile frame 1 to a suitable position. It should be noted that the drive mechanism and steering mechanism of the moving wheels are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0035] By setting up two water and fertilizer tanks 2, different types of water and fertilizer can be stored according to the different needs of crops;

[0036] The fertilization mechanism includes two conveying components, two spraying components, and multiple nozzles 3. Each conveying component is located above the mobile frame 1, each spraying component is located on one side of a conveying component, and multiple nozzles 3 are respectively located on the two spraying components.

[0037] The adjustment mechanism includes two Z-shaped plates 4, two push assemblies and two adjustment assemblies. Each push assembly is located above the mobile frame 1, each Z-shaped plate 4 is located on one side of a push assembly, and each adjustment assembly is located on top of a Z-shaped plate 4.

[0038] like Figures 1-9 As shown, each conveying component includes a support plate 23, an inlet pipe 5, a water pump 6, an outlet pipe 7, two branch pipes 8, and two hoses 9. The support plate 23 is fixedly installed on the top of the mobile frame 1, the water pump 6 is fixedly installed on the top of the support plate 23, the input end of the water pump 6 is connected to one of the water and fertilizer tanks 2 through the inlet pipe 5, one end of the outlet pipe 7 is fixedly installed at the outlet end of the water pump 6, one end of each of the two branch pipes 8 is fixedly installed on both sides of the other end of the outlet pipe 7, and one end of each hose 9 is fixedly connected to the other end of one branch pipe 8.

[0039] When fertilization is needed on the crops on both sides, the mobile frame 1 is moved between the two rows of crops. At the same time, two pushing components push four arc-shaped tubes to the base of the crops. Then, the adjusting components control the two arc-shaped tubes to move closer to each other, thus wrapping the crops. The controller then controls the two water pumps 6 to start, controlling the flow of water and fertilizer. The water and fertilizer in the water and fertilizer tank 2 are sucked out through the water inlet pipe 5 above the water pumps and transported to the water outlet pipe 7. Each water outlet pipe 7 introduces the water and fertilizer into two branch pipes 8. Through the branch pipes 8, the water and fertilizer are introduced into two flexible and rigid pipes. Finally, the water and fertilizer are sprayed out through the nozzles 3 above the arc-shaped tubes 11, so that the water and fertilizer can flow out into the soil around the crops through multiple nozzles 3, so that the fertilizer is evenly applied around the crops, allowing the roots of the crops to absorb the fertilizer evenly, improving the fertilizer utilization rate, and helping to ensure the normal growth of the crops.

[0040] like Figures 1-9 As shown, each spraying assembly includes two rigid pipes 10 and two arc-shaped pipes 11. One end of each rigid pipe 10 is connected to the end of a hose 9 away from the branch pipe 8, and one end of each rigid pipe 10 is fixedly connected to the other end of a hose 9. Each arc-shaped pipe 11 is disposed on one side of a rigid pipe 10, and one end of each arc-shaped pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the end of a rigid pipe 10 away from the hose 9. Multiple nozzles 3 are respectively fixedly disposed on the outer wall of the two arc-shaped pipes 11.

[0041] The water and fertilizer entering the arc-shaped tube 11 will be sprayed out by multiple nozzles 3 set on the surface of the arc-shaped tube 11. By pairing two arc-shaped tubes 11, each crop will be surrounded, and the water and fertilizer will be evenly applied around the crop so that the roots of the crop can absorb the fertilizer evenly.

[0042] like Figures 1-9 As shown, each pushing component includes a cylinder 12, a connecting plate 13, two slides 14, four slide bars 22, and four limiting grooves 15. The two slides 14 are respectively fixedly installed on both sides of the Z-shaped plate 4, and the four slide bars 22 are respectively fixedly installed on the two slides 14. Each limiting groove 15 is opened on the outer wall surface of the support plate 23, and each slide bar 22 is slidably connected to one limiting groove 15. The cylinder 12 is fixedly installed on the top of the support plate 23, and the bottom end of the connecting plate 13 is fixedly installed on the top of one of the slides 14, and one end of the connecting plate 13 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder 12.

[0043] When spraying water and fertilizer on crops, the mobile frame 1 is first moved to a suitable position. Then, the cylinder 12 at the corresponding crop is controlled to extend and retract, pushing the two slides 14 to move, thereby moving the Z-shaped plate 4. The Z-shaped plate 4 then moves the adjusting component and the two arc-shaped tubes 11, bringing them closer to the roots of the crop. The adjusting component then moves the two arc-shaped tubes 11 closer together, surrounding the roots of the crop for easy fertilization. After fertilization, the adjusting component moves the two arc-shaped tubes 11 away from each other. Once the two arc-shaped tubes 11 are detached from the roots of the crop, the cylinder 12 is controlled to retract, causing the two slides 14 and the Z-shaped plate 4 to reset, allowing the mobile frame 1 to move to the next position for fertilizing the next crop.

[0044] like Figures 1-9 As shown, each adjustment component includes a bidirectional push rod 16, a slide groove 17, two sliders 18, two connecting blocks 19, and two fixing sleeves 20. The slide groove 17 is opened on the top of one of the Z-shaped plates 4. The two sliders 18 are slidably disposed in the slide groove 17. Each connecting block 19 is fixedly disposed on the top of one slider 18. Each fixing sleeve 20 is fixedly disposed on the top of one connecting block 19, and each fixing sleeve 20 is fixedly disposed on the outer wall of a rigid tube 10. The bidirectional push rod 16 is fixedly disposed on a Z-shaped plate 4, and the two ends of the bidirectional push rod 16 are respectively fixedly connected to the two connecting blocks 19 on the side close to each other.

[0045] When the pushing component pushes the two arc-shaped tubes 11 close to the roots of the crop, the bidirectional push rod 16 is controlled to drive the two connecting blocks 19 closer together. The two connecting blocks 19 drive the two fixing sleeves 20 closer together, and the fixing sleeves 20 drive the two rigid tubes 10 closer together. Thus, the rigid tubes 10 drive the two arc-shaped tubes 11 closer together, so that the two arc-shaped tubes 10 surround the roots of the crop and fertilize the roots more evenly. After fertilization is completed, the bidirectional push rod 16 is controlled to drive the two connecting blocks 19 away from each other, thereby driving the two arc-shaped tubes 11 away from each other, so as to avoid the two arc-shaped tubes 11 limiting the roots of the crop when the pushing component drives the Z-shaped plate 4 to reset.

[0046] like Figures 1-9 As shown, the top of the mobile frame is provided with two support frames. Each support frame 21 is fixedly installed on the top of the mobile frame 1, and each water and fertilizer tank 2 is fixedly installed on one support frame 21. The water and fertilizer tank 2 is fixedly installed above the mobile frame 1 by the support frame 21, so that the water pump 6 can draw water and fertilizer from the inside of the water and fertilizer tank 2 through the water inlet pipe 5 below the water and fertilizer tank 2.

[0047] like Figures 1-9As shown, each support plate 23 is fixedly mounted above the mobile frame 1 by two horizontal blocks. The support plate 23 is mounted above the mobile frame 1 by two horizontal blocks to facilitate the sliding of the two carriages 14 up and down on the support plate 23.

[0048] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0049] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
