Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a self-mounted compost spreader. Conventionally, when spreading with a compost spreader, there are three steps: loading the compost, transporting it to the field, and spreading. Compost was being loaded using a tractor equipped with a compost loading machine, or another tractor equipped with a compost loading machine.

The present invention was conceived in view of the above-mentioned problems, and provides a self-mounted compost spreading machine that allows the operator to carry out the three steps of loading, transporting, and spreading all by himself while riding on the tractor.

Next, an explanation will be given based on the drawings. FIG. 1 is a left side view of the embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a front view, and FIG. 3 is a right side view. It consists of a spreading section c, a scraping device d, and a lifting device e. The cargo frame a has a front wall 1, left and right side walls 2, 3, and a bottom plate 4.
The rear end of the bottom plate 4 extends from the left and right side walls 2 and 3, and a ground protrusion 24 with an acute angle in cross section is formed at the rear edge. A conveyor b is arranged at the front of the bottom plate 4 and rotates to the left. A dispersion section c is arranged above the left end of the conveyor b and at a position extending outward from the left side wall 3. The dispersion section c is composed of a beater 6, a spill prevention plate 7, and a regulating frame 8. Reference numeral d denotes a scraping device extending from the front wall 1, which is fixed to the front wall 1 and has a fork-shaped scraping device, which pivots the base of the mast 10 to the lower part of the support plate 9 that projects upward. A filling material 11 is pivotally supported at the tip. The scraping material 11 is provided with an auxiliary plate 11' attached thereto as shown in FIG.
2 and the lower part of the fork of the scraping material 11 are fitted together.
The intermediate upper surface of the mast 10 and the upper portion of the support plate 9, and the intermediate lower surface of the mast 10 and the scraping material 11 are connected by cylinders 12 and 13, respectively. Reference numeral e designates a lifting device provided on the right side wall 3, with a shaft 14 pivotally supported on the lower surface of the floor plate 4, and arms 15 fixed to both ends of the shaft 14. A wheel 16 is pivotally supported at the tip of the arm 15, and approximately the middle of the arm 15 and the upper part of the right side wall 3 are connected by a cylinder 17. Reference numeral 5 denotes a traction rod whose base is fixed to the lower front surface of the front wall 1 and protrudes forward. 18 is an input shaft, which is driven from a PTO shaft (not shown) at the rear of the tractor via a universal joint 19;
The beater drive shaft 20 and the conveyor drive shaft 21 are driven to drive the beater 6 and conveyor b. A hydraulic unit 23 is connected to the cylinders 12, 13, and 17 through connecting hoses, and each is actuated by a lever provided on the hydraulic unit 23. Incidentally, the gist remains the same even if the tractor is mounted at three points and raised and lowered.

FIG. 6 shows a second embodiment in which a scraping device d is provided on one side, and the wheels are raised and lowered to load from the side and scatter from the rear.

Next, to explain the operation, an example of a field where a compost spreader that spreads one side is suitable is an orchard, and as an example of the field of this embodiment, a case where compost is spread in an orchard will be explained. This embodiment is connected to the drawbar of a tractor via a traction rod 5, and the following operations are performed. First, when loading compost, as shown in FIG. 4, the ground protrusion 24 at the rear of the compost spreader of this embodiment is grounded in the compost storage area, and the compost is advanced to the bottom of the compost for primary loading. Furthermore, while riding in the driver's seat of the tractor, the cylinder 17 is operated to control the cargo frame a to a desired position (Fig. 4),
The cylinder 12 is operated to rotate the mast 10 up and down, and the cylinder 13 is operated to rotate the scraping plate 11 back and forth to scrape compost from the rear of the cargo frame a. Repeat this action to load the compost. An auxiliary plate 11' is attached to the scraping material 11 depending on the type of compost. After loading the compost, the raking board 11 is installed to prevent the compost from falling.
is positioned vertically and used as the back wall. and,
The cylinder 17 is operated to raise the cargo frame a and transport it to an orchard, which is a field. When spreading compost, the PTO shaft of the tractor is driven by driving between the trees, and the input shaft 18 is driven via the universal joint 19 to operate the beater 6 and conveyor b. The compost transferred by the conveyor b is scattered laterally by the beater 6. At this time, the scraping material 11 used as the rear wall is pushed forward by operating the cylinders 12 and 13 to supply the compost to the conveyor b. The regulation frame 8 has a narrow vertical scattering angle for use in orchards, but the gist remains the same even if the regulation frame 8 is used differently depending on the field.
Due to the regulation frame 8, the scattered compost is scattered to the base of the tree without being scattered to the branches. Then, the three steps of loading, transporting, and spreading the compost are repeated as described above.

For another purpose, when turning compost as shown in Figure 5, unripe compost from turning area A is loaded into cargo frame a using the raking plate 11 as described above, and transferred to turning area B by the spreading unit. Release the compost while mixing and turning in the horizontal direction. After a predetermined period of time, the compost is cut back from the cutting place B to the cutting place C as described above, and the cutting is repeated several times until the compost becomes fully ripe.

Next, to explain the effect, the cargo frame, which has a scattering means and a loading means on one side perpendicular to the scattering direction of the scattering means, is configured to be able to be raised and lowered freely, so that it is possible to sit in the driver's seat of the tractor. One person can carry out the three steps of loading, transporting, and spreading compost with one machine, making the work smooth without the need for a compost loading machine.

In addition, since compost turning work can be done with one machine, it has the effect of increasing versatility and being economical.
