[0066] The present invention provides a disc spreader, as shown in Figures 1-3. The disc spreader 1 includes a disc 12 and a swing drive mechanism. The disc 12 is rotatable. The swing drive mechanism is in transmission connection with the disc 12 and is configured to drive the disc 12 to swing back and forth. The disc 12 is configured to contact material during its swinging motion, thereby spreading the material outward, i.e., throwing the material outward from the disc 12.

[0067] According to the disc spreader 1 of the embodiment of the present application, when the disc spreader 1 is in operation, the swing drive mechanism of the disc spreader 1 can drive the disc 12 to swing back and forth. During the swinging process, the disc 12 contacts the material, thereby spreading the material outward. The disc spreader 1 can achieve material spreading operations with a single disc 12. Compared with the prior art that provides two side-by-side spreading assemblies, the disc spreader 1 has a simpler structure, a smaller overall volume, and lower costs.

[0068] In one embodiment, the disc spreader also includes a mounting shell 11, which is provided with a feed port 114 and a discharge port 115; the disc 12 is rotatably mounted in the mounting shell 11; wherein, the material entering the mounting shell 11 from the feed port 114 can be thrown out from the discharge port 115 by the swinging of the disc 12.

[0069] In one embodiment, the swing drive mechanism includes a first motor 14 and a transmission member, wherein the first motor 14 drives the transmission member to move, and the transmission member is connected to the spinning disc 12, and the transmission member is used to drive the spinning disc 12 to move. In some embodiments, the transmission member is configured to drive the spinning disc 12 to swing.

[0070] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG3 and FIG6 , the swing drive mechanism includes a first motor 14 and a connecting rod mechanism 13 . The first motor 14 drives the connecting rod mechanism 13 to operate, and the connecting rod mechanism 13 is configured to drive the spinning disc 12 to swing.

[0071] In one embodiment, the connecting rod mechanism 13 is arranged on the outside of the mounting housing 11, and the connecting rod mechanism 13 is connected to the spinning disc 12 through the mounting hole on the mounting housing 11. The connecting rod mechanism 13 includes a first connecting rod 131, a second connecting rod 132 and an intermediate connecting rod 133, and the second connecting rod 132 is connected to the spinning disc 12 through the mounting hole on the mounting housing 11.

[0072] Specifically as shown in Figures 2 and 3, for the convenience of assembly, the mounting shell 11 includes a first shell 111 and a second shell 112, which are snapped together to form a accommodating space for the spinner 12; wherein, a feed port 114 is provided on the first shell 111, the spinner 12 is mounted on the second shell 112, and the connecting rod mechanism 13 is mounted on the outer side of the second shell 112 away from the spinner 12.

[0073] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6 to FIG. 8 , the link mechanism 13 includes a first link 131 , a second link 132 , and an intermediate link 133 .

[0074] The first connecting rod 131 is configured to be able to rotate around the driving shaft 134 under the drive of the first motor 14, the second connecting rod 132 is connected to the spinning disc 12 and is limited relative to the spinning disc 12 in the circumferential direction, one end of the intermediate connecting rod 133 is rotatably connected to the first connecting rod 131, and the other end is rotatably connected to the second connecting rod 132. During the rotation of the first connecting rod 131, the second connecting rod 132 can be driven to swing by the intermediate connecting rod 133, so that the second connecting rod 132 drives the spinning disc 12 to swing back and forth.

[0075] 6 and 7 (in conjunction with FIG11-12 ), the connecting rod mechanism 13 is disposed outside the mounting housing 11. A non-circular hole 1241 is provided on the side of the spinner 12 facing the connecting rod mechanism 13. A connecting shaft 1321 is provided on the second connecting rod 132. The connecting shaft 1321 includes a non-circular portion that passes through the mounting housing 11 to engage with the non-circular hole 1241. The second connecting rod 132 drives the spinner 12 to swing via the non-circular portion.

[0076] Furthermore, a connecting flange 124 is provided on the side of the spinning tray 12 facing the connecting rod mechanism 13. The connecting flange 124 can be fixed to the spinning tray body 121 of the spinning tray 12 by bolt connection or other connection methods. Specifically, a non-circular hole 1241 is provided on the connecting flange 124. A connecting shaft 1321 is provided on the end of the second connecting rod 132 away from the intermediate connecting rod 133. The non-circular portion of the connecting shaft 1321 passes through the axial hole 1123 of the second housing 112 and is inserted into the non-circular hole of the connecting flange 124. Therefore, during the swinging process, the second connecting rod 132 drives the spinning tray 12 to swing through the mating connection between the connecting shaft 1321 and the connecting flange 124. The state of the connecting flange 124 and the second connecting rod 132 after being connected is shown in FIG.

[0077] Since the spinning disc 12 needs to perform a rapid reversing motion, the impact vibration generated is relatively large. Therefore, some embodiments of the present application provide a variety of vibration reduction measures to reduce the vibration.

[0078] In some embodiments, the outer side of the rotating shaft of at least one of the first connecting rod 131, the middle connecting rod 133 and the second connecting rod 132 is installed in the ring, and a buffer sleeve is provided between the rotating shaft and the ring. The buffer sleeve is usually made of rubber elastic material.

[0079] As shown in Figures 6 and 7, a collar 1122 is provided around the shaft hole 1123 on the second shell 112, and the rotating shaft of the second connecting rod 132 (i.e., the connecting shaft 1321) is inserted into the collar 1122 and extends into the inner side of the mounting shell 11 to be connected to the spinneret 12, wherein a first buffer sleeve 17 is provided between the collar 1122 and the connecting shaft 1321, and the first buffer sleeve 17 is used to reduce the vibration of the spinneret 12 during the swinging process of the second connecting rod 132.

[0080] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 6, at the pivotal connection between the second connecting rod 132 and the intermediate connecting rod 133, a rotating shaft is provided at one end of the second connecting rod 132 connected to the intermediate connecting rod 133. A collar is provided on the intermediate connecting rod 133, into which the rotating shaft is inserted. A second buffer sleeve 135 is provided between the rotating shaft and the collar. The presence of a buffer sleeve between the rotating rods can mitigate vibration caused by swinging. Buffer sleeves can also be used to reduce vibration at other pivotal connections.

[0081] In some embodiments, a counterweight 136 is provided at one end of the first connecting rod 131 away from the middle connecting rod 133 . The counterweight 136 can reduce vibration caused by the eccentricity of the first connecting rod 131 .

[0082] For alleviating the vibration that produces in the swinging process of throwing away dish 12, in some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2, throwing away dish 12 comprises the material parts that are positioned at a side of the swinging center (the material parts that are thrown away shown in Figure 2 are a plurality of blades 122) and the block 123 on the other side of the swinging center, the mounting housing 11 is also provided with the buffer assembly 16 that is positioned at block 123 both sides, and block 123 is for hitting the buffer block of buffer assembly 16 when swinging towards both sides. In addition, block 123 can also be used as counterweight, because the material parts that are thrown away are positioned at the below of the swinging center, counterweight is set on a side away from the material parts that are thrown away of throwing away dish 12, the center of gravity of throwing away dish 12 can be lifted, thereby is conducive to promoting the swing stability of throwing away dish. That is to say, in the embodiment shown in Figure 2, block 123 both as the counterweight that promotes the center of gravity of throwing away dish 12, uses as the buffer block that hits buffer assembly 16 again. Since the portion of the buffer assembly 16 that the block 123 collides with is made of a buffering flexible material, such as rubber, the block 123 can be made of metal as a counterweight. Of course, the block 123 can also be made of a flexible material.

[0083] 5 , the structure of the buffer assembly 16 includes a buffer portion 161, a guide rod 162, a spring 163, and a mounting support 164. The mounting support 164 is fixed to the mounting housing 11, and the guide rod 162 is axially movable through the mounting hole of the mounting support 164. The spring 163 is disposed between the buffer portion 161 and the mounting support 164, and a retaining spring 165 is disposed at one end of the guide rod 162 away from the spring 163 to prevent the guide rod 162 from separating from the mounting support 164. During the swinging process of the spinning disc 12, when the block 123 strikes the buffer portion 161 of the buffer assembly 16, the buffer portion 161 pushes the guide rod 162 to move, compressing the spring 163 and providing a buffering effect on the swinging of the block 123. After the block 123 separates from the buffer portion 161, the buffer portion 161 and the guide rod 162 are reset under the action of the spring 163.

[0084] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, the swinging plate 12 is configured to swing back and forth on both sides in the vertical direction. The swinging plate 12 includes a material throwing component located below the swing center, and the discharge port 115 is arranged below the mounting shell 11. In this way, when the swinging plate 12 swings back and forth on both sides in the vertical direction, the material is thrown out from the discharge port 115 below through the material throwing component below.

[0106] The spinner spreader 1 can be configured so that the angle between the swing plane of the spinner 12 and the horizontal plane is between 0° and 90°. Specifically, during sowing, if the angle between the swing plane of the spinner 12 and the horizontal plane is 0°, the spinner 12 swings along the horizontal plane; if the angle between the swing plane of the spinner 12 and the horizontal plane is 90°, the spinner 12 swings along the vertical plane; and if the angle between the swing plane and the horizontal plane is greater than 0° but less than 90°, the spinner 12 swings along an inclined plane between the vertical and horizontal planes. For example, the spinner spreader in the sowing device shown in Figure 11 is configured so that the spinner 12 can swing along the vertical plane, while the spinner 12 in the sowing device shown in Figure 13 is configured so that it swings along the horizontal plane. The angle of the swing plane of the spinner 12 can be adjusted by installing the spinner spreader in the sowing device or by installing the sowing device, for example, on a drone or application equipment.
