Description
Single and double seed alternating peanut planting device Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of planting equipment technology, and in particular relates to a single-double seed alternating peanut planting device. Background Technology
[0002] Alternating single and double seed sowing is an agricultural planting technique that optimizes planting results by alternating between single and double seed sowing methods during the sowing process.
[0003] Alternating single and double seed sowing refers to the practice of alternating between single and double seed sowing on the same plot of land, based on the crop's growth characteristics and planting needs. This method can save costs while regulating the crop population, ensuring that crops receive more even light, water, and nutrients during their growth, thereby improving crop yield and quality.
[0004] Currently, peanut planters use alternating single and double seed planting. However, the same position is set for each seeding disc, which means that adjacent seeding discs plant seeds either one or two at a time. Adjacent seeds reduce ventilation and light penetration, leading to nutrient imbalance, increased pests and diseases, and reduced crop yield and quality. Technical issues
[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a single-double seed alternating peanut planting device, which solves the current problem that uneven seed distribution during peanut planting reduces crop ventilation and light penetration, leading to nutrient imbalance, increased occurrence of pests and diseases, reduced crop yield and quality, and the inability to change the seed distribution pattern according to needs. Technical solutions
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: It includes two identical seeding components. Each seeding component includes a housing, on which a hopper cavity, a feeding cavity, and a discharge port are provided. A partition fixedly connected to the housing is provided between the hopper cavity and the feeding cavity. The lower end of the partition has a feeding port communicating with the hopper cavity and the feeding cavity. A seeding wheel is rotatably connected inside the feeding cavity. A detachable rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the seeding wheel. The left and right ends of the rotating shaft pass through the housing and are rotatably connected to it. Multiple circumferentially distributed double-grain-collecting components and multiple circumferentially distributed single-grain-collecting components are fixedly connected to the outer circumference of the seeding wheel. The number of double-grain-collecting components and single-grain-collecting components are the same and they are evenly staggered. When the two seeding components rotate synchronously via the rotating shaft, the positions of the single-grain-collecting components on one seeding component and the double-grain-collecting components on the other seeding component are the same.
[0007] Preferably, the seeding wheel includes a first feeding disc and a second feeding disc with the same structure and detachably connected. The first feeding disc is fixedly connected to a detachable first fixing frame and a second fixing frame. The first fixing frame is provided with a plurality of slots evenly distributed in a circle. The second fixing frame is provided with a plurality of inserts corresponding one-to-one with the slots. A detachable first feeding block is provided between every two adjacent slots. A detachable second feeding block is fixedly connected to each insert.
[0008] Preferably, the first and second material-collecting blocks have the same structure, both including a block-shaped body, and the block-shaped body is provided with material-collecting grooves.
[0009] Preferably, the housing is composed of a left housing and a right housing made of transparent material, which are connected and fixed together by a connector.
[0010] Preferably, the housing is provided with a pull-out baffle, which can isolate the hopper cavity within the hopper cavity. Beneficial effects
[0011] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this invention are: 1. The two sowing components are connected by a rotating shaft and rotate synchronously, making the sowing process more efficient. The alternating arrangement of single-seed and double-seed feeding components ensures uniform distribution of seeds along the sowing path, improving sowing efficiency; 2. The first and second feeding blocks on the sowing wheel are detachable, allowing the sowing quantity to be flexibly adjusted according to land conditions and planting needs. This design not only improves sowing accuracy but also reduces planting costs; 3. Through alternating sowing, crops can obtain more balanced nutrients and light during growth, thereby improving germination rate, survival rate, and yield. At the same time, the reasonable group structure improves crop ventilation and light penetration, reducing the occurrence of pests and diseases; 4. The sowing wheel consists of two detachably connected feeding discs, and both the fixing frame and the feeding blocks are detachable. This design allows the sowing wheel to be easily maintained or replaced when needed, reducing maintenance costs and improving the reliability and service life of the equipment; 5. This design can be flexibly adjusted according to different land conditions and planting needs. On land with low survival rates, more second seed blocks can be installed to increase the number of seeds sown; while in cases where a larger seeding spacing is required, some seed blocks can be removed to achieve this goal.

The best embodiment of the present invention
[0021] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the invention.
[0022] Referring to Figures 1-7, the present invention includes two identical seeding components 1. Each seeding component 1 includes a housing 2, on which a hopper cavity 3, a feeding cavity 4, and a discharge port 5 are provided. A partition 6 fixedly connected to the housing 2 is provided between the hopper cavity 3 and the feeding cavity 4. The lower end of the partition 6 is provided with a feeding port 7 communicating with the hopper cavity 3 and the feeding cavity 4. A seeding wheel 8 is rotatably connected inside the feeding cavity 4. A detachable rotating shaft 9 is fixedly connected to the seeding wheel 8. The left and right ends of the rotating shaft 9 pass through the housing 2 and are rotatably connected to the housing 2. Multiple double-particle lifting elements 10 and multiple single-particle lifting elements 11 are fixedly connected to the outer circumference of the seeding wheel 8. The number of double-particle lifting elements 10 and single-particle lifting elements 11 are the same and they are evenly staggered.
[0023] When the two seeding components 1 are connected and rotate synchronously via the rotating shaft 9, the single-grain feeding component 11 on one seeding component 1 and the double-grain component 10 on the other seeding component 1 are in the same position.
[0024] The design comprises two identical seeding components 1. Each seeding component 1 consists of a housing 2, inside which are a hopper chamber 3, a feed chamber 4, and a discharge port 5. To separate the hopper chamber 3 and the feed chamber 4, a partition 6 is fixedly connected to the housing 2, and a feed port 7 is provided at the lower end of the partition 6, which allows the hopper chamber 3 and the feed chamber 4 to communicate with each other.
[0025] Inside the feeding chamber 4, a seeding disc 8 is rotatably connected. This seeding disc 8 is fixedly connected to it via a detachable rotating shaft 9, with both ends of the shaft 9 passing through and rotatably connected to the housing 2. This design allows the seeding disc 8 to rotate freely within the feeding chamber 4.
[0026] Multiple double-seed feeders 10 and multiple single-seed feeders 11 are fixed on the outer circumference of the seeding disc 8, and they are all evenly distributed in a circular pattern. The number of double-seed feeders 10 and single-seed feeders 11 is the same, and they are designed to be evenly staggered. When seeding on one seeding disc 8, seeds will be discharged alternately in single and double positions along one seeding path to ensure the uniformity and accuracy of seeding.
[0027] When the two sowing components 1 are connected by the rotating shaft 9 and rotate synchronously, the single-seed feeder 11 on one sowing component 1 will be in the same position as the double-seed feeder 10 on the other sowing component 1. This design ensures that single and double seeds are alternately discharged on both sowing paths during sowing by the two sowing discs 8, and the single and double seeds also alternate at symmetrical positions on the two sowing paths (see Figures 5 and 6). This further ensures seed germination and survival rates, improves sowing efficiency, helps crops form a more rational plant population structure during growth, improves crop ventilation and light penetration, and reduces the occurrence of pests and diseases. Alternating sowing allows crops to receive more balanced nutrients and light during growth, thereby improving crop yield and quality. It also allows for reasonable control of seed usage, reducing planting costs.
[0028] In summary, this dual-seeding assembly design achieves efficient and accurate seeding operations through precise component layout and synchronous rotation mechanism, making it ideal for agricultural production scenarios that require precise control of seeding rate.
[0029] The seeding wheel 8 includes a first feeding disc 12 and a second feeding disc 13 with the same structure and detachable connection. The first feeding disc 12 is fixedly connected to a detachable first fixing frame 14 and a second fixing frame 15. The first fixing frame 14 is provided with a plurality of slots 16 evenly distributed in a circle. The second fixing frame 15 is provided with a plurality of inserts 17 corresponding one-to-one with the slots 16. A detachable first feeding block 18 is provided between every two adjacent slots 16. A detachable second feeding block 19 is fixedly connected to each insert 17.
[0030] The seeding disc 8 consists of two main parts: a first seeding disc 12 and a second seeding disc 13. These two parts have identical structures and are detachably connected. This design allows for easy maintenance or replacement of the disc when needed.
[0031] On the first seeding disc 12, two important structures are fixedly connected: a first fixing frame 14 and a second fixing frame 15. These two fixing frames are also detachable, which further increases the flexibility and maintainability of the seeding disc.
[0032] For example, on land with a low survival rate, a second feed block 19 is installed on the insert block 17 on both seeding discs 8, so that the number of seeds sown by the seeding component 1 is two, which will form the form of single seeds becoming double seeds as shown in Figure 6.
[0033] Alternatively, there is an option where the second feed block 19 is not installed on the insert block 17 of each seeding disc 8, which increases the seeding distance on a single seeding track and causes the two particles of adjacent seeding tracks to be staggered, resulting in the form of single-particle removal as shown in Figure 6.
[0034] Between the slots 16 of the first mounting bracket 14, a removable first seed-grabbing block 18 is provided between every two adjacent slots 16. These first seed-grabbing blocks 18 are responsible for scooping up the seeds from the storage area and distributing them to the sowing position during the sowing process. Similarly, a removable second seed-grabbing block 19 is fixedly connected to each mounting block 17. These second seed-grabbing blocks 19 work together with the first seed-grabbing blocks 18 to ensure that the seeds can be evenly and accurately distributed to the sowing area.
[0035] In order to facilitate the picking up of seeds entering the feeding chamber 4 and drive them to rotate, the first picking block 18 and the second picking block 19 have the same structure, both including a block-shaped body, and the block-shaped body is provided with a picking groove 20.
[0036] Specifically, in order to facilitate observation of the material conveying inside the housing 2 and to facilitate disassembly, the housing 2 is composed of a left housing and a right housing made of transparent material connected and fixed by connectors.
[0037] Furthermore, in order to facilitate stopping the feeding of material to the hopper cavity 3, the housing 2 is provided with a pull-out baffle 21, which can isolate the hopper cavity 3 inside the hopper cavity 3.
[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above descriptions are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
