Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of forage planting technology, specifically a soil covering device for forage planting. Background Technology

[0002] Forage grasses, as an important source of feed for livestock, occupy a crucial position in the development of animal husbandry. Rich in various trace elements and vitamins, and possessing strong regenerative capabilities, they can be harvested multiple times a year, playing an indispensable role in ensuring the stable development of animal husbandry. In the forage grass planting process, the soil covering stage is of paramount importance. Appropriate soil covering helps to fix the seeds and creates favorable conditions for seed germination and seedling growth. Typically, the soil should cover the forage grass seeds by 1 to 2 cm. This thickness of soil cover meets the needs of seed rooting while also facilitating the absorption of moisture and nutrients from the soil.

[0003] Existing soil covering devices for forage planting have limitations. Some devices can only complete a single soil covering process and cannot be integrated with other processes such as sowing, tilling, and compaction. For example, traditional disc-type soil covering devices require other equipment to till and prepare the land before soil covering can be done separately, resulting in a cumbersome operation process. Repeated compaction in the field can easily damage the soil structure. Moreover, some soil covering devices can cause uneven soil covering thickness, which may result in excessive soil covering and affect seed germination and emergence. A soil covering device for forage planting is provided to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0023] Example

[0024] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides a soil covering device for forage planting, including a base plate 1. The front end of the base plate 1 is rotatably connected to a first rotating shaft 2 via a bearing. A rotary tiller 3 is sleeved on the outer surface of the first rotating shaft 2. A first support plate is provided on the top of the base plate 1. A storage box 4 is provided on the top of the first support plate. A switch 5 is provided on the rear side of the storage box 4. A discharge pipe 6 is provided on the bottom of the storage box 4. A second rotating shaft 7 is rotatably connected to the inside of the first support plate via a bearing. A feeding disc 8 is sleeved on the outer surface of the second rotating shaft 7. A first L-shaped plate is provided on the rear side of the base plate 1. A rolling roller 9 is rotatably connected to the inside of the first L-shaped plate via a bearing. A protective box and a battery 10 are provided on the top of the base plate 1. A first motor 11 is provided inside the protective box. A first connecting rod 12 is provided at the output end of the first motor 11. A second connecting rod 13 is rotatably connected to the other end of the first connecting rod 12 via a pin. A lever 14 is rotatably connected to the other end of the second connecting rod 13 via a pin.

[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 4 A first pulley 15 is provided at one end of the first rotating shaft 2, a second motor 16 is provided at the top of the base plate 1, a second pulley 17 is provided at the output end of the second motor 16, and a first V-belt 18 is engaged in the grooves of the first pulley 15 and the second pulley 17.

[0026] Specifically, the second motor 16 drives the second pulley 17 to rotate, which in turn drives the first V-belt 18 and the first pulley 15 to rotate, thereby causing the first rotating shaft 2 to drive the rotary tiller 3 to till the land.

[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 4 A third pulley 19 is provided at one end of the second rotating shaft 7, and a fourth pulley 20 is provided at one end of the rolling roller 9. A second V-belt 21 is engaged in the grooves of the third pulley 19 and the fourth pulley 20.

[0028] Specifically, when the push plate is pushed, the rolling roller 9 rotates as the worker pushes it. The rolling roller 9 drives the fourth pulley 20 to rotate, which in turn drives the second V-belt 21 and the third pulley 19 to rotate. The third pulley 19 drives the second rotating shaft 7 and the feeding disc 8 to rotate, thereby causing the grass seeds stuck in the feeding disc 8 to fall into the soil.

[0029] Please see Figures 4 to 5 The feeding tray 8 has two slots, and the discharge pipe 6 has a funnel inside, which is located above the feeding tray 8.

[0030] Specifically, the slot can temporarily store grass seeds. When the slot opening faces downwards, the grass seeds temporarily stored in the slot fall into the soil through the discharge pipe 6 to complete the sowing.

[0031] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The top of the base plate 1 is provided with a second L-shaped plate, the inner bottom wall of the second L-shaped plate is provided with a cylinder 22, the movable end of the cylinder 22 is provided with a connecting plate 23, and the bottom of the connecting plate 23 is provided with a V-shaped guillotine 24.

[0032] Specifically, the cylinder 22 continuously extends and contracts, driving the connecting plate 23 and the V-shaped cutter 24, causing the V-shaped cutter 24 to continuously break up larger soil clods, preventing large soil particles from affecting the germination and growth of pasture.

[0033] Please see Figures 3 to 5 The bottom of the base plate 1 is provided with a fixed shaft 25, one end of the lever 14 is sleeved on the outer surface of the fixed shaft 25, and the bottom of the discharge pipe 6 is provided with a plow blade 26.

[0034] Specifically, the fixed shaft 25 supports the lever 14, allowing the lever 14 to rotate around the axis of the fixed shaft 25, so that the plow blade 26 can easily break the soil and make it easier for grass seeds to be buried in the soil.

[0035] During use, the user presses switch 5, activating the first motor 11, the second motor 16, and the cylinder 22. The second motor 16 drives the second pulley 17 to rotate, which in turn drives the first V-belt 18. The first V-belt 18 drives the first pulley 15 and the first shaft 2 to rotate. The first shaft 2 then drives the rotary tiller 3 to break up the soil. For larger soil clods, the cylinder 22 continuously extends and retracts, driving the connecting plate 23. The connecting plate 23 then drives the V-shaped chaff cutter 24 to move up and down continuously, breaking up larger soil clods. Subsequently, the user pushes the base plate 1, causing the roller 9 to rotate and drive the fourth pulley 20. The fourth pulley 20 then drives the second V-belt 21 and the first V-belt 22 to rotate. The three pulleys 19 rotate, and the third pulley 19 drives the second rotating shaft 7 and the feeding disc 8 to rotate. As the feeding disc 8 rotates, the grass seeds temporarily stored in the slot of the feeding disc 8 fall into the soil. At this time, the first motor 11 drives the first connecting rod 12 to rotate. The first connecting rod 12 drives the second connecting rod 13, which is connected to the other end of the first connecting rod 12 by a pin. The second connecting rod 13 drives the lever 14, which is connected to the other end of the second connecting rod 13 by a pin, so that the lever 14 rotates around the axis of the fixed shaft 25 and continuously moves the soil to make the soil cover thickness as uniform as possible. As the base plate 1 moves, the rolling roller 9 appropriately rolls the soil so that the soil and grass seeds are in full contact.

[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
