Specifically, a control box 12 is installed between star-shaped discharge bin 5 and star-shaped discharge bin 6. The controller inside the control box 12 is electrically connected to the distance regulator 7. Specifically, the controller uses existing technologies, such as microcontrollers. Specifically, a separate battery for powering the motor 72 can be installed inside the control box 12.

[0022] Specifically, cone-shaped funnel 1 2 and cone-shaped funnel 2 3 are evenly and fixedly installed at the bottom of fertilizer bin 1. Both cone-shaped funnel 1 2 and cone-shaped funnel 2 3 are connected to the inside of fertilizer bin 1. The bottom of cone-shaped funnel 1 2 is fixedly connected to star-shaped discharge bin 5, and the bottom of cone-shaped funnel 2 3 is fixedly connected to star-shaped discharge bin 2 6, so that the fertilizer inside fertilizer bin 1 can automatically fall into the corresponding star-shaped discharge bin 5 and star-shaped discharge bin 2 6 through cone-shaped funnel 1 2 and cone-shaped funnel 2 3.

[0023] Specifically, a triangular truncated pyramid 4 is installed inside the fertilizer bin 1. The triangular truncated pyramid 4 is located between the first conical funnel 2 and the second conical funnel 3, so that the fertilizer inside the fertilizer bin 1 can be automatically dispersed into the first conical funnel 2 and the second conical funnel 3 through the triangular truncated pyramid 4, thus avoiding stagnation inside the fertilizer bin 1.

[0024] Specifically, the drive mechanism includes a power connection shaft 10, a U-shaped bracket 11, a driven shaft 16, and a bevel gear 17. There are two driven shafts 16. One end of the power connection shaft 10 and the two driven shafts 16 are rotatably extended into the U-shaped bracket 11 and are meshed with the bevel gear 17. The U-shaped bracket 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fertilizer bin 1 via a connecting rod. The other ends of the two driven shafts 16 are respectively fixedly connected to one end of the corresponding star wheel 15. The driven shafts 16 are rotatably connected to the corresponding star discharge bin 1 5 and star discharge bin 2 6. Specifically, in use, the power connection shaft 10 is connected to an external power mechanism, such as the power output shaft of a tractor, so as to simultaneously drive the star wheel 15 to rotate inside the corresponding star discharge bin 1 5 and star discharge bin 2 6.

[0025] Specifically, each of the star-shaped discharge bins 1-5 and 2-star discharge bins 6 is provided with an integrated discharge pipe 13 at its bottom. The bottom end of the discharge pipe 13 is rotatably connected to the top end of the corresponding Z-shaped discharge pipe 1-8 and Z-shaped discharge pipe 2-9. Each of the star-shaped discharge bins 1-5 and 2-star discharge bins 6 is provided with an integrated feed pipe 14 at its top. The top end of the feed pipe 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the corresponding conical funnel 1-2 and conical funnel 2-3. Specifically, the inner diameters of Z-type discharge pipe 18 and Z-type discharge pipe 29 are larger than the diameter of discharge pipe 13, and Z-type discharge pipe 18 and Z-type discharge pipe 29 are rotatably sleeved on the outside of the corresponding discharge pipe 13 through bearings.

[0026] Specifically, the spacing adjuster 7 includes a gearbox 71, a motor 72, a drive gear 73, a ring gear 74, and a shaft hole 75. The motor 72 is fixedly mounted externally on the gearbox 71. The drive gear 73 and the ring gear 74 are rotatably mounted inside the gearbox 71, meshing together. The output end of the motor 72 rotatably extends into the gearbox 71 and is fixedly connected to one end of the drive gear 73. A shaft hole 75 is provided through one side of the gearbox 71, coaxial with the ring gear 74. The gearbox 71 is fixedly mounted externally to the corresponding feed pipe 13 via the shaft hole 75. The Z-shaped discharge pipe 8 and the Z-shaped discharge pipe... The top end of the discharge pipe 2 9 extends into the gearbox 71 through the shaft hole 75. Bearings are installed between the Z-type discharge pipe 1 8 and the Z-type discharge pipe 2 9 and the shaft hole 75. The ring gear 74 is sleeved and fixed outside the corresponding Z-type discharge pipe 1 8 and Z-type discharge pipe 2 9. The gearbox 71 is fixedly connected to the control box 12. With the setting of the spacing adjuster 7, the motor 72 can drive the drive gear 73 and the ring gear 74 to rotate forward and backward according to the spacing of the crop ridges, thereby driving the corresponding Z-type discharge pipe 1 8 and Z-type discharge pipe 2 9 to rotate forward and backward, thereby adjusting the distance between the bottom of the Z-type discharge pipe 1 8 and Z-type discharge pipe 2 9.

[0027] In this embodiment, when in use, fertilizer is loaded into the fertilizer bin 1, the power connection shaft 10 is connected to an external power mechanism, such as the power output shaft of a tractor, and the fertilizer bin 1 is fixedly connected to the tractor through a support connector (such as a traction frame). Then, during fertilization, the motor 72 drives the drive gear 73 and the ring gear 74 to rotate in both directions according to the spacing between crop rows. This causes the corresponding Z-type discharge pipe 1 8 and Z-type discharge pipe 2 9 to rotate in both directions, thereby adjusting the distance between the bottoms of Z-type discharge pipe 1 8 and Z-type discharge pipe 2 9 so that the distance between Z-type discharge pipe 1 8 and Z-type discharge pipe 2 9 corresponds to the spacing between crop rows. In this way, during the movement of the tractor, the star wheel 15 can be driven to rotate inside the corresponding star discharge bin 1 5 and star discharge bin 2 6, thereby evenly conveying the fertilizer inside the fertilizer bin 1 to the Z-shaped discharge pipe 1 8 and Z-shaped discharge pipe 2 9, and discharging it from the bottom of the Z-shaped discharge pipe 1 8 and Z-shaped discharge pipe 2 9.

[0028] Any technical solution that achieves the above-mentioned technical effects by utilizing the technical solution described in this utility model, or by designing a similar technical solution inspired by the technical solution described in this utility model, falls within the protection scope of this utility model.
