Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural planting machinery technology, and more specifically, it relates to a disc harrow for corn planting. Background Technology
[0002] The disc harrow for corn planting is a type of land preparation machinery used in agricultural tillage operations. It primarily uses rotating disc blades mounted on a frame to break up the soil and level the surface, creating a suitable seedbed environment for corn planting. This device typically consists of a traction frame, main beam, disc assembly, and adjustment mechanism. During operation, the disc blades cut into the soil, using mechanical traction or power drive to break up, mix, and level the topsoil. It is widely applicable to the land preparation stage before corn planting and plays a crucial role in improving sowing quality and seedling survival rate.
[0003] Existing disc harrows have significant drawbacks in practical applications: First, traditional devices are mostly fixed directly to the frame with bolts and connecting brackets. Adjusting the disc spacing requires disassembly and reassembly using tools, making it difficult to adapt to different widths of tillage or the row spacing requirements of corn planting. Especially when frequent adjustments to the plow width are needed, repeated disassembly and reassembly are not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but may also affect the uniformity of tillage due to installation errors, leading to inconsistent corn planting depth and reduced seed survival rate. Second, in soils with high moisture content, the disc plow blades easily adhere to soil during operation. Especially in wet tillage environments before corn planting, soil adhesion gradually increases the thickness of the discs, increasing mechanical resistance and compromising soil fragmentation precision, resulting in uneven soil clods after tillage, affecting the quality of corn planting. Furthermore, the adhered soil requires frequent manual cleaning, further reducing operational efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a disc harrow for corn planting that combines adjustable spacing and prevents soil adhesion to improve the flexibility and reliability of tillage operations.

[0030] Please see Figures 1-8A disc harrow for corn planting includes a frame 1. The frame 1 has a connecting frame 2 fixedly connected to its upper surface by bolts. A slide rail 3 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the frame 1. Four slide rails 3 are symmetrically arranged along the axial direction of the frame 1. Several scraper blades 9 and disc harrow bodies 13 are evenly distributed in a rectangular array. A rotating roller 4 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the slide rail 3. A slider 5 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide rail 3. A spiral groove is formed on the slide rail 3, and the slider 5 is adapted to the spiral groove. The slider 5 can move axially along the rotating roller 4. A movable rod 6 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the slider 5. A connecting barrel 7 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lower end of the movable rod 6. A second bearing 12 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the connecting barrel 7. A disc rake body 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the second bearing 12. Vertical rods 14 are fixedly connected to the lower surfaces of both ends of the slide rail 3. Slide rods 15 are fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of the two vertical rods 14. The slide rods 15 penetrate the inner wall of the connecting barrel 7 and the inner wall of the second bearing 12. The inner wall of the second bearing 12 is movably connected to the outer surface of the slide rods 15. The inner wall of the connecting barrel 7 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the slide rods 15. A first bevel gear 16 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating roller 4. A rotating shaft 17 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the middle part of the frame 1. A second bevel gear 18 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft 17. The outer surface of the rotating shaft 17 is connected to one end of the rotating roller 4 through the second bevel gear 18 and the first bevel gear 16. An adjusting wheel 19 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 17.
[0031] The spiral groove includes a first spiral groove 401, a second spiral groove 402, a third spiral groove 403, and a fourth spiral groove 404 formed on the outer surface of the rotating roller 4. The depth of the first spiral groove 401, the second spiral groove 402, the third spiral groove 403, and the fourth spiral groove 404 gradually increases, and the pitch of the first spiral groove 401, the second spiral groove 402, the third spiral groove 403, and the fourth spiral groove 404 gradually increases along the axial direction of the rotating roller 4.
[0032] The slider 5 includes: a first spiral slider 501 adapted to the first spiral groove 401, a second spiral slider 502 adapted to the second spiral groove 402, a third spiral slider 503 adapted to the third spiral groove 403, and a fourth spiral slider 504 adapted to the fourth spiral groove 404.
[0033] Specifically, four symmetrically distributed slide rails 3 are welded to the lower surface of frame 1. The inner walls of the slide rails 3 are rotatably connected to rotating rollers 4 via bearings. The outer surface of rotating rollers 4 has first spiral grooves 401 to fourth spiral grooves 404 with increasing depth and pitch. Sliding sliders 5 are slidably connected to the slide rails 3, with the first spiral sliders 501 to fourth spiral sliders 504 at their upper ends respectively embedded in the corresponding spiral grooves. A connecting barrel 7 is welded to the lower end of the movable rod 6. The connecting barrel 7 is rotatably connected to the disc rake body 13 via a second bearing 12. A sliding rod 15 passes through the connecting barrel 7 and the second bearing 12 and is fixed to the vertical rod 14 at the lower end of frame 1. The rotating shaft 17 engages with the first bevel gear 16 at the end of the rotating roller 4 via a second bevel gear 18 for transmission. One end of the rotating roller 19 is fixed. When the rotating roller 19 is rotated, the rotating shaft 17 drives the rotating roller 4 to rotate through the bevel gear set. The spiral grooves with different pitches drive the corresponding sliders 5 to slide along the slide rail 3. Since the pitch of the first spiral groove 401 to the fourth spiral groove 404 is designed in double proportion, the first spiral slider 501 moves a distance of 1 / 2 of the second spiral slider 502, 1 / 4 of the third spiral slider 503, and 1 / 8 of the fourth spiral slider 504 for each rotation of the rotating roller 4. This achieves gradient adjustment of the spacing between adjacent disc harrow bodies 13. This structure can adjust the spacing between multiple discs simultaneously without tools, which improves the adjustment efficiency compared with the traditional bolt fixing method and meets the tillage needs of different corn row spacings.
[0034] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 7 A connecting barrel 7 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lower end of the movable rod 6. A first bearing 8 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the connecting barrel 7. A scraper 9 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the first bearing 8. An adapter groove 10 is provided on the outer surface of the scraper 9. The inner wall of the adapter groove 10 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the disc rake body 13. A spring damper 11 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the movable rod 6 located below the slider 5. One end of the spring damper 11 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the scraper 9.
[0035] Specifically, the outer surface of the connecting barrel 7 is rotatably connected to the scraper 9 via the first bearing 8. The inner side of the scraper 9 has an adapter groove 10, the curvature of which matches the outer contour of the disc harrow body 13. The lower end of the movable rod 6 is connected to the upper end of the scraper 9 via a spring damper 11, which provides buffering force. The sliding rod 15 passes through the connecting barrel 7, and the connecting barrel 7 can slide up and down along the sliding rod 15. The second bearing 12 ensures that the disc harrow body 13 rotates independently. When the disc harrow body 13 rotates with the device, the scraper 9 is pressed against its outer surface through the adapter groove 10. The soil falls off under the action of centrifugal force and scraping. When encountering dry soil, the spring damper 11 is compressed to make the scraper 9 retract, avoiding jamming. After the soil falls off, the spring returns to its original position and continues to scrape. This mechanism can continuously remove soil clumps, reduce the amount of mud and dirt adhering to the disc harrow body 13, and reduce plowing resistance.
[0036] In summary, when using the overall equipment: the connecting frame 2 is connected to the rear end of the tractor, and then the device is lowered by the tractor's drive mechanism and moves with the tractor. During the movement, the disc harrow body 13 penetrates the ground, thus plowing the soil. When high-quality plowing is required, the rotating shaft 17 is rotated by the adjusting wheel 19. At this time, the rotating roller 4 is driven to rotate through the second bevel gear 18 and the first bevel gear 16. When the rotating roller 4 rotates, multiple spiral grooves 401 and the first spiral slider 501, the second spiral groove 402 and the third spiral slider 503, the third spiral groove 403 and the third spiral slider 503, and the fourth spiral groove 404 and the fourth spiral slider 504 are driven through the transmission action. The slider 5 slides inside the slide rail 3. When rotated at a certain angle, the moving distance of the first spiral slider 501 is equal to the moving distance of the two second spiral sliders 502, the moving distance of the four third spiral sliders 503, and the moving distance of the eight fourth spiral sliders 504. This achieves the effect of synchronously adjusting the spacing between adjacent disc rake bodies 13. During operation, when there is mud adhering to the outer surface of the disc rake body 13, the mud will be scraped off by the scraper 9 when passing through the inner wall of the adapter groove 10 on the inner side of the scraper 9. The spring damper 11 can buffer the scraper 9 to prevent the difficult-to-remove material from completely jamming the scraper 9 and the disc rake body 13, thus improving the practicality of the device.
[0037] Of all the solutions mentioned above, those involving the connection between two components can be selected according to the actual situation, such as welding, bolt and nut connection, bolt or screw connection, or other known connection methods, which will not be elaborated here. For all the fixed connections mentioned above, welding is preferred. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
