[0017] 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.
[0018] Example: Reference Figure 1-5The seed mixing device shown includes a water tank 1, an angle adjustment assembly installed on the water tank 1, and a seed mixing cylinder 2 installed on the angle adjustment assembly. The angle adjustment assembly is used to adjust the tilt angle of the seed mixing cylinder 2 in the horizontal direction. Multiple heat exchange fins 3 are fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the seed mixing cylinder 2, all located above the water tank 1. A discharge pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the left side of the seed mixing cylinder 2, and a sealing plate 12 is hinged to the left end of the discharge pipe 4. Opening the sealing plate 12 allows the mixed corn seeds in the seed mixing cylinder 2 to be poured out along the discharge pipe 4. A locking buckle is installed on the sealing plate 12 for locking the discharge pipe 4 and the sealing plate 12. A feed pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the right side of the seed mixing cylinder 2, and the feed pipe 5 has a feed pipe at its right end... A feeding pipe 7 is inserted into the inner side. The connection between the feeding pipe 5 and the feeding pipe 7 is rotatably connected by a bearing. It is more convenient to put corn seeds into the inside of the seed mixing cylinder 2 along the feeding pipe 7. Multiple stirring blades 6 are fixed in a circular array on the inner wall of the seed mixing cylinder 2. The use of stirring blades 6 can better stir the corn seeds in the seed mixing cylinder 2, so that the corn seeds and the agent can be fully mixed. A first gear 8 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the feeding pipe 5. A carrier plate 9 is installed on the angle adjustment component. A drive component is installed on the carrier plate 9, and the carrier plate 9 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the feeding pipe 7. The drive component is used to drive the first gear 8 to rotate. A dosing component is installed on the feeding pipe 7. The dosing component is used to add the medicine to the seed mixing cylinder 2. When the first gear 8 is rotated by the drive component, the first gear 8 can drive the seed mixing cylinder 2 to rotate, so that the corn seeds and the agent put into the seed mixing cylinder 2 are constantly mixed until the corn seeds are fully coated with the agent. During this process, the seed mixing cylinder 2 can better contact the ice water in the water tank 1 with the help of multiple heat exchange fins 3. The ice water is used to cool the seed mixing cylinder 2, so that the corn seeds mixed inside the seed mixing cylinder 2 can get timely heat exchange, thereby dissipating their own heat. In this way, the corn seeds after the seed mixing is completed are not easily damaged by their own heat accumulation.
[0019] The drive assembly includes a drive motor 10, which is mounted on a carrier plate 9. The output shaft of the drive motor 10 is connected to a second gear 11 via a coupling. The second gear 11 meshes with the first gear 8. The drive motor 10 drives the second gear 11 to rotate. Since the second gear 11 meshes with the first gear 8, the rotating second gear 11 can pull the first gear 8 to rotate, thereby driving the feed pipe 5 and the seed mixing cylinder 2 to rotate.
[0020] The dosing assembly includes a dosing tube 13. The left end of the dosing tube 13 is inserted into the inside of the feeding tube 7 and is fixedly connected to a delivery tube 14. The delivery tube 14 extends from the feeding tube 7 into the inside of the seed mixing cylinder 2, and the left end of the delivery tube 14 is fixedly capped with an end cap 15. The bottom of the delivery tube 14 is fixedly connected to multiple outlet tubes 16. The top end of the dosing tube 13 is fixedly connected to an auxiliary hopper 17. The medicine can be filled into the dosing tube 13 along the auxiliary hopper 17. The medicine is dispersed along the multiple outlet tubes 16 to multiple positions inside the seed mixing cylinder 2, which facilitates the mixing of the medicine with the corn seeds.
[0021] The angle adjustment assembly includes a first U-shaped seat 18 and a carrier ring 19. The first U-shaped seat 18 is fixedly installed on the left side of the water tank 1. A sleeve 20 is rotatably connected between the front and rear inner walls of the first U-shaped seat 18 by a pin. A fixing plate 21 is fixed to the outer wall of the sleeve 20. The fixing plate 21 is sleeved on the outside of the unloading pipe 4, and the joint between the unloading pipe 4 and the fixing plate 21 is rotatably connected by a bearing. The carrier ring 19 is sleeved on the outside of the seed mixing cylinder 2, and the joint between the seed mixing cylinder 2 and the carrier ring 19 is rotatably connected by a bearing. The carrier plate 9 is fixedly installed on the top of the carrier ring 19. Two telescopic components are installed between the carrier ring 19 and the water tank 1. The two telescopic components are used to push the carrier ring 19 to move. The telescopic assembly includes two second U-shaped seats 22, one of which is fixedly installed on the carrier ring 19 and the other is fixedly installed on the water tank 1. The inner walls of the two second U-shaped seats 22 are rotatably connected by a pin, and a hydraulic cylinder 24 is installed between the two carrier pipes 23. By using two hydraulic cylinders 24 to push the loading ring 19 and the seed mixing cylinder 2 to rotate around the sleeve 20, the seed mixing cylinder 2 changes from a horizontal state to an inclined state. The sealing plate 12 is opened, and the corn seeds that have been mixed in the seed mixing cylinder 2 can be poured out along the unloading pipe 4.
[0022] The hydraulic cylinder is equipped with a power source, and the power source is configured as a standard feature in the field, which technicians can implement based on existing technology.
[0023] Working principle of this utility model: First, water and crushed ice are added to the water tank 1 to make an ice-water mixture. Then, the sealing plate 12 is closed and the unloading pipe 4 is locked to the sealing plate 12 with a latch. A certain amount of corn seeds are put into the seed mixing cylinder 2 along the feeding pipe 7. The drive motor 10 is activated to drive the second gear 11 to rotate. The second gear 11 pulls the first gear 8 to rotate, so that the first gear 8 drives the seed mixing cylinder 2 to rotate. The agent is poured into the dosing pipe 13 along the auxiliary hopper 17, so that the agent is dispersed into multiple positions of the seed mixing cylinder 2 along multiple dosing pipes 16. In this way, the corn seeds and agents in the seed mixing cylinder 2 can complete the seed mixing operation during the mixing process. During the mixing process, the seed mixing cylinder 2 exchanges heat with the ice water in the water tank 1 through multiple heat exchange fins 3, so that the temperature of the seed mixing cylinder 2 drops. The seed mixing cylinder 2 can exchange heat with the corn seeds during the mixing process, avoiding excessive heat accumulation of corn seeds during the mixing process. Once the corn seeds are evenly coated with the agent, stop the drive motor 10, open the sealing plate 12, and activate the extension of the two hydraulic cylinders 24. This causes the two hydraulic cylinders 24 to push the seed mixing cylinder 2 to rotate around the sleeve 20, changing the seed mixing cylinder 2 from a horizontal position to an inclined position. This allows the corn seeds inside the seed mixing cylinder 2 that have been mixed to be discharged along the discharge pipe 4.
[0024] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
