Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of control mechanism technology, and in particular to a spraying quantity control mechanism for agricultural drones. Background Technology
[0002] Agricultural drones are mainly used for spraying pesticides on crops. Traditional agricultural drones have pesticide containers that are fixedly connected to the drone body. After the drone completes a spraying task, it cannot immediately change the container containing pesticides and set off again. Instead, it needs to wait in place for the pesticides to be refilled, which results in long waiting times and affects the efficiency of agricultural operations.
[0003] The existing technology CN221914602U discloses a spraying device for an agricultural drone, including a drone body with a convenient disassembly and assembly mechanism. This mechanism includes support feet fixedly installed at the bottom of the drone body, an adjustment seat fixedly installed at the bottom of the drone body, a limit rod fixedly installed inside the adjustment seat, and bidirectional rotating rods extending to both sides of the adjustment seat rotatably connected inside the adjustment seat. Turntables are fixedly installed at both ends of the bidirectional rotating rods. This agricultural drone spraying device, through its convenient disassembly and assembly mechanism and the cooperation between the various structures on the drone body, allows workers to quickly and easily install replacement containers after each spraying operation, saving pesticide filling time and enabling continuous, uninterrupted operation. This improves spraying efficiency and effectively enhances the practical performance of the drone body.
[0004] However, using the above method makes it impossible to control the amount of pesticides sprayed, which can easily lead to excessive pesticide use, resulting in waste and increased production costs. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a spraying quantity control mechanism for agricultural drones, which can control the amount of pesticides sprayed when spraying pesticides on crops, avoid excessive pesticide use, prevent waste, and reduce production costs.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a spraying volume control mechanism for an agricultural drone, including a water tank and a spraying volume control component, wherein the spraying volume control component includes a water supply pipe, a transfer box, and multiple spraying components;
[0007] The water supply pipe is fixedly connected to and communicates with the water tank, and is located at the bottom of the water tank; the transfer box is fixedly connected to and communicates with the water supply pipe, and is located at the bottom of the water supply pipe; multiple spraying components are respectively located at the bottom of the transfer box, each spraying component including a connecting pipe, a first mesh tray, a bearing, a water outlet pipe, a second mesh tray, and an atomizing nozzle; the connecting pipe is fixedly connected to and communicates with the transfer box, and is located at the bottom of the transfer box; the first mesh tray is fixedly connected to the connecting pipe, and is located inside the connecting pipe, and the first mesh tray has multiple first water outlet holes; the outer ring of the bearing is fixed to the connecting pipe, and is located inside the connecting pipe; the water outlet pipe is fixedly connected to the inner ring of the bearing, and is located inside the bearing; the second mesh tray is fixedly connected to the water outlet pipe, and is located between the water outlet pipe and the first mesh tray, and the second mesh tray has multiple second water outlet holes; the atomizing nozzle is fixedly connected to the water outlet pipe, and is located at the end of the water outlet pipe away from the second mesh tray.
[0008] The spraying component also includes a rubber sealing ring; the rubber sealing ring is disposed between the second mesh disk and the connecting pipe.
[0009] The spray volume control component further includes a solenoid valve; the solenoid valve is fixedly connected to the water supply pipe and is located on the side of the water supply pipe.
[0010] The spray volume control component further includes a drive component; the drive component is disposed on the transfer box.
[0011] The driving component includes multiple drive sprockets, two rotating shafts, two transmission sprockets, a chain, and a motor. The multiple drive sprockets are fixedly connected to multiple water outlet pipes and are located on the sides of the water outlet pipes. The two rotating shafts are rotatably connected to the transfer box and are located on the sides of the transfer box. The two transmission sprockets are fixedly connected to the two rotating shafts and are located on the sides of the two rotating shafts. The chain is sleeved on the sides of the multiple drive sprockets and the two transmission sprockets. The motor is fixedly connected to the transfer box, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to the rotating shafts and located at the bottom of the transfer box.
[0012] This invention discloses a spraying control mechanism for an agricultural drone. Multiple first water outlets correspond to multiple second water outlets. A water tank is installed on the agricultural drone and stores pesticides. The drone moves the water tank into the air, and the pesticides in the tank enter a transfer box via a water supply pipe. The pesticides in the transfer box then pass sequentially through a connecting pipe, the first water outlet, the second water outlet, and the water outlet pipe before being sprayed from the atomizing nozzle to spray pesticides onto crops. When the spraying amount needs to be adjusted, the operator can rotate the water outlet pipe. The water outlet pipe drives the first mesh disc to rotate, causing the first and second water outlets to be misaligned. This reduces the communication area between the first and second water outlets, thereby reducing the efficiency of pesticides entering the water outlet pipe from the connecting pipe, thus controlling the pesticide spraying amount. This invention can control the pesticide spraying amount when spraying crops, avoiding excessive pesticide use, preventing waste, and reducing production costs. Attached Figure Description
