Self-propelled, multiple-use transfer device with feed spreader

Abstract

SELF-PROPELLED, MULTI-PURPOSE TRANSFER DEVICE, as described in the report and in the attached illustrations, is an equipment used in general agriculture and livestock activities to transfer products to another suitable equipment or place, containing the additional function of spreading products in the soil, therefore called self-propelled. The equipment presents as a differential the fact that it brings together multiple functions such as the possibility of transferring and spreading products in the field or in other applications, such as in sandpits.

DESCRIPTION

(17) The transfer device is composed by the product reservoir (1) attached to the operator's cabin (2) constituting a single equipment with full wheel assemblies (3) for its movement. The operator's cabin is constructed in such a way that it is possible to visualize the packaging of the products inside the product reservoir (1).

(18) General products, such as grains, fertilizers or limestone are deposited inside the product reservoir (1) by other equipment, such as harvesters, trucks, cranes, loaders, backhoe loaders and others.

(19) The inputs, such as fertilizers, humus, gypsum, phosphorus, potassium, limestone and others can be spread directly on the soil or discharged to any other equipment. Before, however, these inputs must be decompressed so that they can be moved easily by the conveyor belt.

(20) The decompression takes place through the axes (4) provided with decompression levers (5) simultaneously moved by the chain (6) and the sprockets (7). The activation occurs through the power socket (8). The decompression levers (5) have the function of stirring the inputs so that the conveyor belt can carry them.

(21) The soil spreading occurs through the conveyor belt (9) which is activated by the power socket (10), that has a double direction of movement. For soil spreading, the conveyor belt moves in the direction A so that the inputs pass through the back gate (11) and the flow divider (12), falling on the circular spreaders (13), which have the function of distributing the inputs on the soil's surface.

(22) The conveyor belt (9) is constituted by chain (14) provided with L-shaped salience (15) where the container pallet transporters (16) are fixed. The continuous movement of the chain (14) occurs through the sprockets (17).

(23) The unloading of the inputs to another equipment, in order to supply a planter, for example, occurs through the conveyor belt (9) that moves in the direction B so that the inputs fall into the corn heads (18) activated by the power socket (19), being directed to the unloading telescopic articulated duct (20), which can be positioned in any way necessary. For that, the unloading telescopic articulated duct (20) is positioned as in C, and when not used, it is positioned as in D, retracting the telescopic hinges.

(24) In order to carry out any of the input unloading forms by direct spreading on the soil or through the unloading telescopic articulated duct (20), the sheets (21) of the tray (22) that confine the conveyor belt (9) must be open so that the inputs can be contacted and transported by the conveyor belt (9). The activation of the selection plates movements occurs through the power sockets (23) and it is only possible when the equipment is empty.

(25) The transfer of grains or other products from the interior of the product reservoir (1) is carried out by the articulated duct (24) provided internally with the corn heads (25), whose load and unload of the products occurs in the direction E. The articulated duct (24) has a central hinge (26) for the purpose of enabling the accommodation of its upper portion closest to the operator's cabin (2). The horizontal portion of the articulated duct (24) has nozzles (27) for periodic cleaning. The activation of the corn heads (25) occurs through the hydraulic power unit (28) or by gearboxes.

(26) For the transfer of grains or other products from the interior of the product reservoir (1) through the articulated duct (24) it is necessary that the tray's sheets (21) are closed so that the products fall over the corn heads (25).

(27) The transfer device has and engine driven by diesel (29), preferably for activation of hydraulic motors (30) in order to move the complete set of wheels (3). The hydraulic motors (30) can be replaced by transmission through gearboxes and differential crown wheel and pinion.

(28) The control of the various mechanisms occurs from the hydraulic pump (31) interconnected to the hydraulic control valve (32) which activates and deactivates the power sockets (8), (10), (19), (23), the power sockets (33) for activation of the circular spreaders (13) and the hydraulic power unit (28). The hydraulic pump assembly (31) and the hydraulic control valve (32) can be replaced by transmission through gearboxes and differential crown wheel and pinion.

(29) The equipment can optionally contain a third axis resulting in 64 traction.

CONCLUSION

(30) Thereby, the Self-propelled, Multi-purpose Transfer Device is subsidized by unpublished technical and functional characteristics, thus deserving the legal protection requested.
