AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current methods for spraying two types of chemicals require double the labor, time, and equipment cost due to the need for separate spraying or multiple machines.

Method used

A granule machine hopper body is divided into two sections by a partition plate, with two independent flow holes at the bottom, allowing simultaneous supply of two chemicals through synchronized shutter plates.

Benefits of technology

Reduces labor, time, and equipment costs by enabling simultaneous chemical application with a single machine, improving farming efficiency.

Abstract

This invention provides a mechanism for simultaneously supplying two different types of chemicals when using a granule spreader, thereby reducing labor, working time, and equipment costs. [Solution] The chemical hopper body 1 of the granule spreader is divided into two by a partition plate 2. The lower shutter 3 is provided with independent chemical flow holes 4. The two independent flow holes 4 supply two types of chemicals to the swivel plate simultaneously when the shutter 3 is opened. This helps to reduce the labor burden of spraying different chemicals twice during the application process, double the working time, or the equipment costs of requiring two granule spreaders.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a chemical supply mechanism that divides the inside of a granule machine hopper body into two parts and provides two independent chemical flow-down holes. Technical Background

[0002] When spraying two types of chemicals using a granule machine, either spraying is done twice or two granule machines are used on a riding tiller for spraying.

Summary of the Invention

[0006] When spraying two types of chemicals, double spraying in the field is a large labor burden and takes twice as long. Also, installing two machines on a riding tiller doubles the equipment cost. Therefore, if there is a mechanism that can supply two types of chemicals to the granule machine simultaneously, labor, working time, or equipment cost can be reduced, and the above problems can be solved. Means for Solving the Problems

[0007] The hopper body of the granule spreader is divided into two sections by a partition plate. Two independent flow holes are located at the bottom of each partitioned hopper space. The shutter plates of the flow holes open and close simultaneously, so when the shutters are opened, two types of chemicals are supplied at the same time, fall onto the swivel plate, and are spread. This solves the problems of the labor burden and doubled working time required to spread granules twice with the granule spreader, or the increased equipment costs required to use two granule spreaders.

[0008] As mentioned above, a mechanism that can supply two types of pesticides simultaneously reduces the labor, time, and equipment costs of spraying operations, contributing to the management of farming operations. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[Figure 5] Diagram showing the top view of the two-drug simultaneous supply mechanism of this invention. Embodiments for carrying out the present invention

[0010] A partition plate conforming to the cross-sectional shape is installed inside the hopper body, dividing the hopper body into two sections. A shutter plate at the bottom of the hopper has two independent flow holes in each section. When the shutter is opened, two types of chemicals are supplied simultaneously. The flow rate is adjusted by adjusting the opening of the shutter plate.

[0011] An embodiment will be described below with reference to the attached drawings. 1 is the hopper body, integrally molded from a suitable material such as durable plastic, and 2 is a stainless steel plate that partitions the inside of the hopper, composed of three sections to conform to the shape of the inside of the hopper. 3 is a stainless steel shutter at the bottom of the hopper, with two independent flow holes 4 provided therein. 5 is the lower base for the shutter, integrally molded from a suitable material such as durable plastic, and by sliding the shutter, the separate chemicals in the partitioned space flow out simultaneously through the independent flow holes. The amount of drug flow is adjusted by adjusting the slide amount of shutter 3.

[0012] One embodiment of this invention has the configuration described above, so that if the same drug is placed in the partitioned space, it can be used as a conventional drug supply mechanism, and if different drugs are placed in it, it can be used as a dual-drug supply mechanism.

Claims

[Claim 1] A partition is provided inside the hopper body of the chemical granule spreader. In addition, separate chemical flow holes are provided at the bottom of each partitioned hopper. A dual chemical simultaneous supply mechanism is characterized by the fact that when different types of chemicals are placed in the partitioned hopper and the shutters with the two independent flow holes are opened, the two types of chemicals are supplied to the rotating plate simultaneously.
