[0014] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0015] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, an insertable fertilization device for potato planting includes a fertilizer storage tube 1, and further includes a rubber stopper 3 that is detachably installed on the top of the fertilizer storage tube 1. A hollow pointed tube 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fertilizer storage tube 1, and a fertilizer inlet 201 is opened on the bottom side wall of the pointed tube 2. The quantitative fertilizer application component 4 is installed inside the fertilizer storage tube 1. The quantitative fertilizer application component 4 includes a turntable 408 rotatably connected to the bottom of the inside of the fertilizer storage tube 1. The turntable 408 is evenly provided with quantitative grooves 401 in the circumference. The bottom wall of the fertilizer storage tube 1 is provided with a feeding port 402 that communicates with the pointed tube 2 and is adapted to the quantitative grooves 401.

[0016] Based on the above embodiments, the fertilizer storage tube 1 is made of high-strength plastic material and is hollow cylindrical in shape, used for storing granular fertilizer specifically for potatoes. A rubber stopper 3 is detachably installed at the top of the fertilizer storage tube 1 via threads. The rubber stopper 3 is made of nitrile rubber and has a diameter slightly larger than the outer diameter of the fertilizer storage tube 1. Tightening it seals the top of the fertilizer storage tube 1, preventing fertilizer from getting damp or leaking. A hollow pointed tube 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fertilizer storage tube 1 by hot-melt welding. The pointed tube 2 is made of stainless steel and has a conical shape with a 30-degree cone angle at the bottom, facilitating insertion into the loose soil for potato cultivation. Two symmetrical fertilizer inlets 201 are opened on the bottom side wall of the pointed tube 2 for discharging fertilizer into the soil tillage layer. The fertilizer storage tube 1 is equipped with a quantitative fertilizer application component 4, which includes a turntable 408 rotatably connected to the bottom of the fertilizer storage tube 1. The turntable 408 is made of plastic and rotates by engaging an annular boss at its bottom with an annular groove on the inner wall of the fertilizer storage tube 1. The turntable 408 has four quantitative grooves 401 evenly distributed around its circumference; the bottom wall of the fertilizer storage pipe 1 has a feed port 402 at the corresponding position. The diameter of the feed port 402 is adapted to the width of the quantitative groove 401 and is connected to the inside of the pointed pipe 2 so that the fertilizer in the quantitative groove 401 can fall into the pointed pipe 2.

[0017] A shaft 405 is fixedly connected to the center of the turntable 408. The turntable 408 is rotatably installed inside the fertilizer storage tube 1 via the shaft 405 at the center of the turntable. One end of the shaft 405 extends to the outside of the fertilizer storage tube 1.

[0018] A shaft 405, made of stainless steel, is integrally molded and fixedly connected to the axis of the turntable 408. Its length is adapted to the height of the fertilizer storage tube 1. The turntable 408 is rotatably mounted inside the fertilizer storage tube 1 via this shaft 405. The extended end of the shaft 405, away from the turntable 408, is used to connect external drive components (drive gear 403 and driven gear 404). Rotation of the shaft 405 can drive the turntable 408 to rotate synchronously, achieving the switching and alignment of the metering trough 401 and the feed port 402.

[0019] A handle 6 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the fertilizer storage pipe 1. A driven gear 404 is fixedly connected to the extended end of the shaft 405. A driving gear 403 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the handle 6. The driving gear 403 meshes with the driven gear 404.

[0020] A handle 6 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the fertilizer storage tube 1 via a shaft pin. The handle 6 is made of plastic and is easy to rotate by hand. The extended end of the shaft 405 is fixedly connected to a driven gear 404 via a flat key. The driven gear 404 is made of steel, with a module of 2 mm and 40 teeth. The end of the handle 6 near the shaft pin is fixedly connected to a driving gear 403 via welding. The driving gear 403 is also made of steel, with a module of 2 mm and 20 teeth. The driving gear 403 meshes with the driven gear 404, and the meshing clearance is controlled between 0.1 and 0.2 mm. When the handle 6 is rotated, the driving gear 403 drives the driven gear 404 to rotate, which in turn drives the turntable 408 to rotate via the shaft 405, thus achieving stable power transmission.

[0021] One end of the handle 6 is provided with multiple elastic retaining beads 406. The elastic retaining beads 406 are located on the side of the handle 6 near the fertilizer storage tube 1. A retaining groove 407 is provided on one side of the bottom end of the fertilizer storage tube 1.

[0022] Four elastic retaining beads 406 are provided at the horizontal end of the handle 6 away from the handheld end. The elastic retaining beads 406 are made of nylon and pop out of the surface of the handle 6 under normal conditions. All the elastic retaining beads 406 are located on the side of the handle 6 near the fertilizer storage tube 1. A groove 407 is provided on one side of the bottom end of the fertilizer storage tube 1 (corresponding to the rotation trajectory of the elastic retaining beads 406). The groove 407 is a hemispherical groove. When the handle 6 rotates, the elastic retaining beads 406 can move synchronously with the handle 6 and cooperate with the groove 407 to form rotational positioning feedback.

[0023] The number of slots 407 is the same as the number of metering slots 401, and they are evenly distributed circumferentially. When the elastic locking beads 406 are inserted into the slots 407, the metering slots 401 and the feed inlet 402 are completely aligned.

[0024] The number of slots 407 is the same as the number of metering slots 401, both being four, and they are evenly distributed along the circumference of the bottom side wall of the fertilizer storage tube 1. When the handle 6 is rotated until the elastic ball 406 is engaged in any slot 407, under the synergistic effect of gear transmission and structural positioning, one of the metering slots 401 on the turntable 408 is exactly aligned with the feed port 402 on the bottom wall of the fertilizer storage tube 1. At this time, the fertilizer in the metering slot 401 can fall smoothly into the pointed tube 2 through the feed port 402, realizing precise positioning of metered fertilization.

[0025] An anti-blocking baffle 202 is provided on the outer surface of the pointed pipe 2 below the fertilizer trough 201, and a handle 5 is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the fertilizer storage pipe 1.

[0026] The outer surface of the pointed tube 2 below the fertilizer trough 201 is welded with anti-clogging baffles 202. The anti-clogging baffles 202 are thin stainless steel sheets, two in total, distributed along both sides of the pointed tube 2, forming a 45-degree angle with the axis of the pointed tube 2. When the pointed tube 2 is inserted into the soil, the anti-clogging baffles 202 can pry open the surrounding soil to prevent the fertilizer trough 201 from being blocked. The outer side wall of the fertilizer storage tube 1 is fixedly connected with a handle 5 by screws. The handle 5 is made of stainless steel, U-shaped, and covered with a rubber anti-slip sleeve, making it easy for the operator to grip and apply downward force to insert the pointed tube 2 into the soil to the specified depth.

[0027] Working principle: Open the removable rubber stopper 3 at the top of the fertilizer storage tube 1, fill it with potato-specific fertilizer, and then tighten the seal; the hollow pointed tube 2 at the bottom of the fertilizer storage tube 1 prepares for subsequent soil insertion, and the fertilizer slot 201 on its bottom side wall is used for fertilizer discharge; the turntable 408 is rotatably mounted inside the fertilizer storage tube 1 via a shaft 405 fixed at the shaft center, and the extended end of the shaft 405 provides a connection point for externally driving the turntable 408; rotating the handle 6 below the fertilizer storage tube 1 causes the driving gear 403 at the bottom of the handle 6 to drive the driven gear 404 at the extended end of the shaft 405 to rotate, which in turn drives the turntable 408 to rotate synchronously via the shaft 405; the side of the handle 6 closest to the fertilizer storage tube 1... The elastic locking bead 406, when rotated with the handle 6, can engage with the locking groove 407 at the bottom of the fertilizer storage tube 1 to form positioning feedback for the rotation of the handle 6. Since the number of locking grooves 407 and the quantitative grooves 401 are the same and circumferentially distributed, when the elastic locking bead 406 is engaged in the locking groove 407, the quantitative groove 401 of the turntable 408 is exactly aligned with the feeding port 402 on the bottom wall of the fertilizer storage tube 1, ensuring quantitative fertilizer discharge. By applying force with the handle 5 on the outside of the fertilizer storage tube 1, the pointed tube 2 is inserted into the soil. The anti-blocking baffle 202 on the outer surface of the pointed tube 2 and below the fertilizer trough opening 201 clears away the soil to prevent the trough opening from being blocked. The fertilizer is discharged from the fertilizer trough opening 201 through the feeding port 402 and the pointed tube 2.
