Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural machinery technology, specifically to a single-row horizontal disc precision seeder. Background Technology
[0002] Against the backdrop of the continuous development of agricultural mechanization, sowing equipment, as a key piece of equipment in agricultural production, directly affects sowing efficiency and quality. However, there is still room for improvement in terms of structural stability, seed treatment accuracy, and intelligent control of current traditional sowing equipment.
[0003] The following is an analysis of the core problems and similar solutions of the existing technology: Most existing seeders use air suction seed metering devices (such as "An Axial Flow Air Suction Seeding Device" patent number: CN202210190436.6). Although they can achieve single planting, they have many shortcomings, especially in terms of multi-channel collaborative seeding, seed flow density control and remote operation adaptability. The existing technology has not yet fully met the needs of efficient and precise seeding, which provides a real necessity for the development of new seeding equipment.
[0004] The most similar implementation to this invention is a horizontal disc-type precision seed metering device suitable for sloping land (patent number: CN202311495016.X). The bevel gear reversing box is fixed below the chassis, the upper shell and the frame are fixed above and below the chassis respectively, the seed inlet of the chassis is located directly below the seed pushing mechanism, one end of the first to third level seed cleaning brush fixing beam is connected to the upper inner wall of the upper shell, and the other end is connected to the upper outer surface of the truncated cone. The seed pushing mechanism positioning hole is located on the outer boss of the truncated cone. The seed box guide tube, the three-level seed cleaning brush fixing beam and the seed pushing mechanism positioning hole are arranged in circumferential order, consistent with the rotation direction of the seed metering disc. This invention completes seed cleaning and reduces seed flow density through the three-level seed cleaning mechanism, and the seed pushing mechanism forces the seeds out of the seed inlet to complete the seeding.
[0005] In existing seeders, seed cleaning relies on a single cleaning component or the natural fall of seeds, resulting in high levels of residual impurities after cleaning. Furthermore, the concentrated density of the seed flow during transport leads to poor seed cleaning efficiency and inadequate seed flow control. The seed pushing mechanism is often passively designed, lacking an active, forced pushing function. When seeds are stuck together or different seeds have varying gravity, delayed or missed seeding is highly likely. The multi-channel collaborative operation capability and overall operational support are weak, and the mismatch between the number of seed metering devices and the number of channels results in significant seed distribution deviations during multi-channel seeding.

[0026] Example
[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 5This embodiment proposes a single-row seeder horizontal disc precision seeder, including a lower support frame 1, multiple frame support columns 2 mounted on the upper side of the lower support frame 1, and an upper support frame 3 mounted on the upper side of the frame support columns 2.

Compared with existing seeders that suffer from incomplete seed cleaning, easy seed flow congestion, delayed and missed seeding, and uneven seeding in multiple channels, this embodiment features a three-stage seed cleaning mechanism that can perform graded seed cleaning along the rotation direction of the seed metering disc 102, reducing seed flow density by more than 30%, reducing impurity residue by 40%, significantly improving seed cleaning efficiency, and directly promoting improved seeding precision. With a success rate exceeding 98%, this technology solves the problems of reseeding and missed sowing caused by incomplete seed cleaning in traditional equipment. The forced seed pushing mechanism replaces the traditional passive seeding mode, eliminating seed adhesion and seeding delays caused by gravity differences through mechanical active pushing. The missed sowing rate has been reduced from 8%-12% in existing technologies to below 1%, significantly improving the sowing accuracy and ensuring uniform crop emergence. The "one row of seeders with 5 corresponding to three channels" layout design, combined with the coordinated operation of furrowing, soil covering, and roller devices, controls the row spacing deviation within ±1 cm when sowing multiple crops simultaneously. The soil covering incomplete rate is reduced by 60%, the operation efficiency is increased by 20%-30%, the seed waste rate is reduced by 25%, and the risk of reseeding and rework is significantly reduced.

The rolling bearing 103 is located on the upper side of the seed metering disc 102. The upper outer shell 104 is mounted on the upper side of the rolling bearing 103. The seed cleaning brush 105 is installed on the inner top wall of the upper outer shell 104, and the seed cleaning brush 105 is located above the seed metering disc 102. The rotating shaft coupling 106 is located on the lower side of the seed metering disc 102, driving the rotating shaft through the seed metering disc. The upper housing 104 is equipped with a drive unit for rotating the shaft coupling 106. The drive unit is a forward and reverse motor. A seed pushing frame 13 is provided on the upper side of the upper housing 104. A seed pushing roller 14 is sleeved on the seed pushing frame 13. The seed pushing frame 13 and the seed pushing roller 14 cooperate to realize the mechanical pushing of seeds on the rotating seed metering disc 102, thereby eliminating seed adhesion and seeding delay caused by gravity differences. There are three seed cleaning brushes 105, which are arranged in a ring inside the upper housing 104. Multiple seed cleaning brushes 105 simultaneously clean the seeds on the seed metering disc 102, enhancing the seed cleaning effect. Figure 4 As shown, the seed feeding hopper 6 is connected to the lower side of the seed box 4. A rotating rod is rotatably installed inside the seed feeding hopper 6, and a forced seed pushing blade 7 is sleeved on the rotating rod. The upper sowing plow 8 is connected to the lower side of the seed feeding hopper 6, and a connecting shaft 9 is installed on the upper sowing plow 8.

The leveling wheel 16 can rotate on the leveling wheel frame 15, realizing automatic filling of the seed furrow after sowing, eliminating the need for manual filling of the seed furrow afterward, and improving work efficiency.
[0030] Working principle:
[0031] Pour the seeds into the seed box 4 to ensure even distribution and no accumulation or blockage. After pouring, remotely or locally set the sowing parameters via the wireless receiving module 18, adjust the initial angle of the horizontal axis 19 to adapt to field operation needs, and confirm sufficient seed quantity through the observation port of the seed box 4. During sowing, the forward and reverse motors are connected to the seed metering disc via the shaft coupling 106 to drive the shaft, causing the seed metering disc to drive the shaft to rotate. The transmission action of the shaft, in conjunction with the gear set, power distribution transmission wheel set and belt set, drives the seed metering disc 102, wheels 17, upper sowing plow 8 and lower sowing plow 10 to operate synchronously. The seed metering disc 102 rotates, and with the drag reduction effect of the rolling bearing 103, it stably drives the seeds to flow in the seed box 4-seed metering area. The wheels 17 rotate to pull the whole machine forward, providing mobility for field operations. As the seeder moves forward, the lower sowing plow 10 cuts into the soil to complete the furrowing. The furrowing depth is controlled by the lower sowing plow 10 and soil resistance.
[0032] Seed cleaning stage: When the seed metering disc 102 rotates, the seed cleaning brush 105 contacts the surface of the seed metering disc 102. Utilizing the elasticity and friction of the seed cleaning brush 105, impurities on the seed surface are cleaned and the seeds are arranged to ensure uniform seed flow density and prevent clogging. Seed feeding stage: The cleaned seeds enter the feeding hopper 6 of the seed feeding channel. The seed pushing frame 13 and the seed pushing roller 14 are linked with the power transmission system, driving the forced seed pushing blade 7 to move periodically. The forced seed pushing blade 7 actively resists the seeds, overcoming seed adhesion and the influence of gravity, and accurately pushes the seeds onto the upper sowing plow. Inside the upper sowing plow 8, the seeds enter the three sowing channels inside the lower sowing plow 10 through the three sowing openings on the lower side of the upper sowing plow 8. This avoids delays and missed sowing. The seeds slide down the sowing channels and fall into the seed furrows opened by the lower sowing plow 10, completing the sowing process. To finish the field operation: after the seeds fall into the seed furrows, the leveling wheel 16 moves forward with the equipment. Supported by the leveling wheel frame 15, it levels the soil on both sides of the seed furrows to prepare for covering with soil. Then, the covering wheel 12 rolls to backfill the soil on both sides of the seed furrows to cover the seeds, ensuring close contact between the seeds and the soil, thus realizing the sowing of the seeds.
