Description

1 TARIFF A PROCESS CONDUCTED IN AN ELECTROSTATIC CHARGED PULVERIZER DEVELOPMENT Technological Field: The invention is in the field of agricultural spraying machinery, particularly involving electrostatic charging. spraying efficiency and operation in turbo atomizer sprayers Improvements in nozzle, electrode and insulation to increase reliability 10 It is related. State of the Art: Today, spraying machines used in agricultural spraying systems number 15 They are mostly based on mechanical fans, pressure pumps, and standard nozzles. However, these practices ensure that a significant portion of the treated liquid reaches the target surface. This causes it to disperse into the environment without adhering, resulting in economic losses. This is the reason. Specifically, the undersides of leaves and densely branched areas of plants are affected. It is not being covered sufficiently, which prevents pests and diseases from being fully controlled. This prevents its acquisition. Existing machines require high energy consumption, putting extra strain on tractor engines and prolonged use during operation This increases their costs. Furthermore, the high consumption of medicine and water affects both producers. This increases costs and has negative effects on the ecosystem. This creates another problem. Another issue is finding compatible solutions for different agricultural areas and crop types. The inadequacy of flexible and precise control mechanisms leads to homogeneity. This presents limitations in spraying, orientation, and coating efficiency. The applicant's application numbered 2025 / 012928 concerns an electrostatically charged pulverizer. It has been explained. In the turbo atomizer sprayers mentioned in the application, 30 The ring electrode, located in the spray group, is connected to the nozzle structure via a conical cap. Due to being fixed, some of the water is sprayed under high voltage. 2 The ring is attracted by the electrode, and wetting occurs around the electrode. This wetting causes an electric current to pass through the nut on the nozzle and It is transmitted from the chassis to the ground via the connecting elements, therefore by preventing the effective transfer of electrostatic charge to the sprayed droplets The system experiences electrical leakage, energy loss, and spraying inefficiency. Additionally, 5 In the current system, all nozzles are controlled via a single control unit. Therefore, any malfunction occurring in any nozzle or associated control line will affect all This can negatively affect the operation of the spraying system and the spraying process. It reduces its continuity. Therefore, a new one that can overcome the disadvantages mentioned above. Technology is needed. Description of the invention: In the current technique, the ring electrode is placed close to and fixed to the nozzle structure via a conical head. Due to its positioning, the water enters the electrode area during spraying. There may be a possibility of withdrawal and wetting in this area. The subject of the invention In this system, the insulation group is separate from the nozzle and functions as an insulating structure. Thanks to its regulation, the electric current passes through the connecting elements on the nozzle 20 This prevents electrostatic charge from escaping to the chassis and ground. The process is becoming more stable, and energy losses occurring during spraying are being reduced. This reduces the efficiency of the system and increases its performance. The insulation group developed within the scope of the invention is designed to spray electrostatic charge onto 25 It contributes to more effective transfer of the virus into droplets. Isolation Thanks to its insulating properties, the electrode operates under high voltage. This prevents the formation of unwanted transmission paths between the structure and the body. This situation, This ensures both the preservation of the electrostatic field and the closer contact of the droplets with the target plant surfaces. It ensures that it is directed effectively. As a result, 30 during the spraying process. Off-target loss of the sprayed liquid is reduced, resulting in a more homogeneous coating. This is being done, and savings are being achieved in the amount of water and pesticides used. 3 Another important advantage of the invention is the gap between the electrode ring and the nozzle tip. The distance must be optimally determined. The center point of the electrode ring. Adjusting the distance between the nozzle tip and the tip of the nozzle to be 13 mm, both It maintains its electrostatic charging effectiveness and also provides insulation during spraying. 5 This prevents wetting from occurring on the group. Thanks to this distance... The electrode is positioned to adequately charge the droplets with electrostatic charge, The liquid is prevented from accumulating directly on the electrode or insulation surface. Thus, the system is safer, more stable, and more efficient under high voltage. It is acquiring a working character. 10 Designing the isolation group so that it can rotate is an application of the invention. It provides ease of use and adjustability. The insulation group is connected to the nozzle. Thanks to its ability to perform circular motion on an axle, the operator can do so if needed. It is possible to manually adjust the position of the electrode and insulation group. With this 15 Thanks to the resistance created by the compression spring, the insulation group operates. This prevents spontaneous displacement during the process. This structure, on the one hand, benefits the farmer. while providing a practical adjustment option that can be easily modified in the field, on the other hand position adjusted under external influences such as vibration, airflow or machine movement It allows for its protection. 20 The invention not only increases electrical efficiency, but also... It also provides advantages in terms of maintenance and safety of use over time. Electricity Reducing leakage and wetting problems for parts operating under high voltage. This contributes to a longer lifespan. However, 25 to the body or chassis. Preventing unwanted current flows increases operator safety and improves the system. This allows for more reliable use in high-voltage operating conditions. This makes the device more durable, more stable, and better suited to agricultural field conditions. This allows it to operate with a lower risk of failure. The nozzle control box included in the invention offers a significant operational advantage compared to existing systems. Continuity provides an advantage. In the current technology, all nozzles are controlled by a single unit. 4 Because it is controlled via the unit, there is no risk of damage to any nozzle or control line. The resulting malfunction can negatively affect the operation of the entire injection system. (Invention) In this system, each nozzle is electronically controlled by a separate nozzle module. This ensures that if a malfunction occurs in one nozzle, the other nozzles will also be affected. It does not stop working, the system continues the spraying process even in case of partial malfunction. It can continue.

Images of the machine in current technology are shown in Figures 1-4. This is shown in the images. The machine in question, in the current technology, is used in agricultural spraying applications and It is a device that falls into the category of tractor-type turbo atomizer sprayers. The device has 10 Essentially, it carries all the mechanical loads, absorbs vibrations, and supports other parts. It is built on the chassis (1) which forms the basis for its assembly. It is fixed on the chassis (1). The liquid reservoir (2) contains water and pesticide mixed in predetermined proportions. It is the main reservoir in which the liquid is stored and conveyed under pressure to the spray group (6). liquid reservoir (2), protection from external factors and deformation during long-term use 15 It is surrounded by a guard (3) so that it does not get damaged. The guard (3) is also This enhances the operational safety of the device and protects its internal components from dust, moisture, and mechanical impacts. It protects against. The fan (4) produces a high-speed airflow, causing liquid droplets to fall onto the plant surfaces. It enables the fan (4) to move. The rotation speed of the fan (4) is controlled by the speed control unit in the system. (9) can be adjusted via, so that both spraying performance control This is done while also optimizing the tractor's engine load. The spray group (6), nozzle (6.1), conical head (6.2), ring 25 included in the current technology It consists of an electrode (6.3) and an electrode cable (6.4). Spray group (6) It contains nozzles (6.1) that atomize the liquid. Nozzles (6.1) break the liquid into very small droplets under pressure It determines the spray angle and droplet diameter. The liquid coming out of the nozzles (6.1) high voltage static charger (5) which causes it to be electrostatically charged and this 30 There are ring electrodes (6.3) that carry out the transfer of charge to the droplets. The conical caps (6.2) located at the ends of the nozzles (6.1) allow the liquid to flow in a circular pattern. 7 It ensures a homogeneous distribution. Placed inside the conical caps (6.2) Ring electrodes (6.3) create an electrostatic field during spraying, thus dispersing the droplets. It charges with negative charge. High voltage static loader (5), 20,000 to 50,000 volts by generating a high voltage between them, ring electrodes placed at the end of nozzles (6.1) (6.3) transmits. Thus, the liquid droplets sprayed from the nozzles (6.1) have a negative charge of 5 They become charged with (electrons), and the droplets fall onto the leaves, stems, and fruits of plants. It is attracted by electrostatic force. Thanks to this technique, the sprayed material Fluid reabsorption is decreasing, consumption of the drug and water mixture is decreasing, and lower It can be operated with fan (4) speed. This electrostatic charge is safe and uninterrupted. Electrode cables (6.4) are used to transmit the signal in this way. 10 The flow control of the liquid from the liquid reservoir (2) is done by the guiding group (7). is provided. The guiding group (7) directs the liquid into the turbo atomizer group. This group makes it possible to direct the projectiles to the nozzles (6.1) or to the gun. The turbo atomizer valve (7.1) located inside it increases the fluid flow to the spray group (6) by 15 It opens and closes. The gun valve (7.2) is used in manual spraying operations. It is used. The liquid coming out of this valve (7.2) passes through the flexible gun hose (7.3) The signal is transmitted to the gun via this mechanism. Thanks to this structure, the system is both automatic and automated. It offers the operator both spray and manual spraying options. Safe removal of electrostatic charge accumulated in the system during operation. grounding connected to the chassis (1) and positioned to rub against the ground The grounding chain (8) is used. The grounding chain (8) removes excess electricity that may occur in the body. By conducting the current to the ground, it protects both the device and the operator from electrical risks. This In this way, electrostatic charging can be safely maintained at high voltage levels. 25 It can be operated. The invention concerns a system that involves an improvement on the existing machine technology. The related views are given in Figures 5-7. The invention belongs to the spray group. (6) By completely changing the design of the conical cap (6.2) and ring electrode (6.3), 30 It has integrated the insulation group (10). The machine encountered in the current technology One of the problems is; when spraying during pesticide application, the spray group malfunctions. 8 Since the ring electrode (6.3) is fixed to the nozzle (6.1) structure via the conical cap (6.2), By the effect of high voltages, some water is drawn by the ring electrode (6.3) This was causing the material to become wet. As a result of this wetting, the electricity... The current flows from the nut on the nozzle (6.1) to the chassis, and from the chassis to the ground. This passes through. This leads to inefficiency during spraying. The subject of the invention is 5. This situation has been completely overcome with the integration of the isolation group (10) into the system. As seen in Figures 5-6, the isolation group (10) and the nozzle (6.1) They are separated from each other. In particular, the insulation part (10.2) is likely to form. It prevents electrical leaks from being transmitted to the housing. The part in question (10.2) insulation 10 It performs the function. In addition, the insulation group (10) has a cylindrical body (10.2) design. It is integrated to rotate on a shaft connected to the nozzle (6.1). Therefore, the isolation group (10) can move in a circular motion (bidirectional in Figure 6). (indicated by the arrow). However, the manipulation in question was done manually by the farmer. soft enough to move around, but hard enough that he couldn't move on his own. 15 This occurs in this way. This movement separation is provided by the compression spring (10.4). By providing compression action, the compression spring (10.4) allows the insulation group (10) to act on its own. It prevents it from moving. Another aspect of the development of the invention is that the electrode ring (10.1) center point is 20 This distance is the distance between the nozzle (6.1) and the tip of the nozzle. This distance is optimumly 13 It is adjusted to be mm. In this way, the insulation group is protected during spraying. (10) also no wetting occurs. Another innovation in the development subject to the invention is the nozzle control box (11). Figure 1-4 25 All of the nozzles (6.1) in the machine shown in the images are controlled by a single control. It was controlled from the unit. In the development of the invention, each nozzle... It includes an electronically controlled nozzle module (11.1). Therefore, The system is not disrupted if any one nozzle fails; the other nozzles continue to function. He / She is able to continue working. 30
