[0003] Existing cotton planters are inadequate in adapting to different land flatness levels, and the turbulence during traction can easily damage the structure, so their adaptability needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a wide-width folding cotton planter that can flexibly adapt to planting operations on land with different flatness levels, and has strong structural protection.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A wide-width folding cotton planter includes a traction frame. One end of the traction frame is fixedly connected to a support beam. Two other independent support beams are rotatably connected to both ends of the support beam. Adjacent support beams are rotatably connected via a rotating connecting shaft. One end of the traction frame is rotatably connected to a connecting seat via a pin. A connecting rod is installed in the mounting groove of the connecting seat. The connecting rod and the connecting seat are fixedly connected via a screw. Both ends of the connecting rod are rotatably connected to a traction device. The rotation axis of the connecting rod and the traction device is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the connecting seat and the traction frame.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, folding operations can be performed, and the system can automatically adapt to sowing grounds with different flatness, which plays a positive role in protecting the structure.

[0008] Furthermore, multiple rotating connecting seats are fixedly connected to the symmetrical side surface of the traction frame and the side surface of the two movable support beams. A hydraulic rod is installed between two corresponding rotating connecting seats, and both ends of the hydraulic rod are rotatably connected to the rotating connecting seat through pins.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the extension and retraction of the hydraulic rod can be used to drive the unfolding or folding of the seeder.

[0010] Furthermore, multiple fourth brackets are fixedly sleeved on the outside of the support beam. A seeding wheel is rotatably installed at the corner of the fourth bracket. A cotton seed storage box is installed at the upper end of the fourth bracket. The discharge end of the cotton seed storage box is connected to the inlet of the seeding wheel through a pipe.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the seeding wheel can roll on the ground when the seeder is being towed, and the rolling seeding wheel can effectively complete the digging, sowing, and backfilling operations.

[0012] Furthermore, a second bracket and a first bracket are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the support beam. A second movable wheel is rotatably installed at one end of the second bracket, and a support wheel is rotatably installed at one end of the first bracket. A bearing seat is provided on the lower surface of the traction frame, and a rotating shaft is rotatably installed in the mounting position of the bearing seat. A first movable wheel is installed at each end of the rotating shaft.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, it is easier to move the seeder.

[0014] Furthermore, a channel plank is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the support beam, and a restraint rod is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the traction frame.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the flipped support beam can be bound and fixed, while also making it easier for staff to add cotton seeds.

[0016] Furthermore, multiple sets of third supports are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the support beam, and two film roll frames are rotatably installed between each set of third supports.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, it is easy to pull the covering film roll to rotate during the sowing process, so that the film covers the sowing position.

[0018] In summary, the beneficial technical effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0019] 1. This utility model allows the hydraulic rod to extend during operation. Since multiple support beams are connected end-to-end via a rotating connecting shaft, the extension of the hydraulic rod enables the multiple support beams to be arranged in a straight line, achieving effective deployment and improving the stability of each structure during sowing. Furthermore, since the connecting seat is rotatably connected to one end of the traction frame, and the connecting rod is fixedly installed in the mounting groove of the connecting seat, with both ends of the connecting rod rotatably connected to the traction vehicle, and the central axis of the rotatable connection between the connecting rod and the traction vehicle is perpendicular to the central axis of the rotatable connection between the connecting seat and the traction frame, the connecting seat and connecting rod can provide positional compensation for the seeder's woes when it moves on ground with varying flatness, effectively improving the seeder's working stability and environmental adaptability.

[0020] 2. This utility model can be folded when not in operation. The two support beams after folding can be fixed by the restraint rod, which can effectively improve the folding and storage capacity of the entire seeder. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The method of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3A wide-width folding cotton seeder includes a traction frame 1. One end of the traction frame 1 is fixedly connected to a support beam 11. Two other independent support beams 11 are rotatably connected to both ends of the support beam 11. Adjacent support beams 11 are rotatably connected via a rotating connecting shaft 15. One end of the traction frame 1 is rotatably connected to a connecting seat 9 via a pin. A connecting rod 10 is installed in the mounting groove of the connecting seat 9. The connecting rod 10 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 9 via a screw. Both ends of the connecting rod 10 are rotatably connected to a traction device. The rotation axis of the connecting rod 10 and the traction device is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the connecting seat 9 and the traction frame 1. Multiple rotating connecting seats 18 are fixedly connected to the symmetrical side surfaces of the traction frame 1 and the side surfaces of the two movable support beams 11. A hydraulic rod 2 is installed between two corresponding rotating connecting seats 18. Both ends of the hydraulic rod 2 are connected via... The hydraulic rod 2 is rotatably connected to the pivot pin and the rotating connecting seat 18. During operation, the hydraulic rod 2 can be extended. Since multiple support beams 11 are connected end to end through the rotating connecting shaft 15, the extension of the hydraulic rod 2 allows the multiple support beams 11 to be arranged in a straight line, which enables effective deployment and improves the stability of each structure during sowing. Furthermore, since the connecting seat 9 is rotatably connected to one end of the traction frame 1, and the connecting rod 10 is fixedly installed in the mounting groove of the connecting seat 9, both ends of the connecting rod 10 are rotatably connected to the traction vehicle. The rotational connection axis between the connecting rod 10 and the traction vehicle is perpendicular to the rotational connection axis between the connecting seat 9 and the traction frame 1. Therefore, when the seeder is moved on ground with different flatness, the connecting seat 9 and the connecting rod 10 can provide position compensation for the seeder's woes, effectively improving the seeder's working stability and environmental adaptability.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 Multiple fourth supports 16 are fixedly attached to the outside of the support beam 11. A seeding wheel 8 is rotatably installed at the corner of the fourth support 16. A cotton seed storage box 7 is installed at the upper end of the fourth support 16. The discharge end of the cotton seed storage box 7 is connected to the inlet of the seeding wheel 8 through a pipe. Multiple sets of third supports 12 are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the support beam 11. Two film roll frames 13 are rotatably installed between each set of third supports 12. During sowing, the seeding machine can be moved by a traction device. At this time, the seeding wheel 8 contacts the ground and rolls. The rolling seeding wheel 8 can dig holes in the ground. As the seeding wheel 8 rotates, the cotton seeds inside the cotton seed storage box 7 fall into the inside of the seeding wheel 8 along the guide pipe, and then fall into the dug holes. Finally, the rotating seeding wheel 8 can fill the soil. During the entire sowing process, the rolled film installed on the film roll frame 13 can be effectively pulled and unfolded, thus effectively covering the outside of the sowing position, ensuring that the entire sowing operation can be carried out in an orderly manner.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 A second bracket 6 and a first bracket 4 are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the support beam 11. A second moving wheel 17 is rotatably installed at one end of the second bracket 6, and a support wheel 5 is rotatably installed at one end of the first bracket 4. A bearing seat is provided on the lower surface of the traction frame 1, and a rotating shaft is rotatably installed in the mounting position of the bearing seat. A first moving wheel 3 is installed at each end of the rotating shaft. A channel board 14 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the support beam 11, and a restraining rod 19 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the traction frame 1. During the process of the seeder being tractioned and moved, the first moving wheel 3, the second moving wheel 17, and the support wheel 5 provide stable support for the entire seeder, while ensuring that the entire seeder is tractioned and moved in an orderly manner. During use, the operator can conveniently add cotton seeds into the cotton seed storage box 7 through the channel board 14, making the operation convenient.

[0029] Working Principle: In use, first, the two ends of the connecting rod 10 on the seeder are rotatably connected to the traction vehicle. Then, the cotton seeds to be sown are placed inside the cotton seed storage box 7. Next, the rolled film is installed on the film rolling frame 13. Then, the hydraulic rod 2 is extended. Since multiple support beams 11 are connected end-to-end through the rotating connecting shaft 15, the extension of the hydraulic rod 2 allows the multiple support beams 11 to be arranged in a straight line, enabling effective unfolding and improving the stability of each structure during sowing. Traction sowing can then be performed. Because the connecting seat 9 is rotatably connected to one end of the traction frame 1, and the connecting rod 10 is fixedly installed in the mounting groove of the connecting seat 9, with both ends of the connecting rod 10 rotatably connected to the traction vehicle, the rotational connection axis of the connecting rod 10 and the traction vehicle is perpendicular to the rotational connection axis of the connecting seat 9 and the traction frame 1. Therefore, when the seeder moves, whether on uneven ground or not, the connecting seat 9 and the connecting rod 10 can provide support for the seeder's movement. The buoyancy provides position compensation. During sowing, the sowing wheel 8 contacts the ground and rolls. The rolling sowing wheel 8 can dig holes in the ground. As the sowing wheel 8 rotates, the cotton seeds inside the cotton seed storage box 7 fall into the inside of the sowing wheel 8 along the guide tube, and then into the dug holes. Finally, the rotating sowing wheel 8 can fill the soil. During the entire sowing process, the rolled film installed on the film roll frame 13 can be effectively pulled and unfolded, thus effectively covering the outside of the sowing position, ensuring that the entire sowing operation can be carried out in an orderly manner. During the entire sowing process, the first moving wheel 3, the second moving wheel 17, and the support wheel 5 provide stable support for the entire seeder, and at the same time ensure that the entire seeder is pulled and moved in an orderly manner. After sowing is completed, the seeder can be folded and stored. At this time, the hydraulic rod 2 is retracted, and the hydraulic rod 2 drives the movable support beam 11 to flip and fold. Then, the flipped and folded support beam 11 is tied to both ends of the restraint rod 19.

[0030] The embodiments described herein are preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
