Description

STRUCTURE WITH INCORPORATED TURBINE FOR COUPLING TO A FERTILIZER DISTRIBUTING CART

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[001] It deals with the present patent application for a structure with a built-in turbine to enable coupling to a fertilizer distribution cart, whose field of application is turned to agriculture, application of fertilizers in the crop line.

TECHNICAL STATUS

[002] In the current state of the art the automotive fertilizer spreader with a high capacity reservoir and application range of up to 50 m is known. In other words, it refers to a robust machine that brings greater precision in the dosage and uniformity of fertilizer applications, in addition to enabling an application of powder products.

[003] Particularly, the state-of-the-art machine consists of a reservoir mounted on a structure in the form of a chassis and pulled by a tractor or similar, this reservoir being associated with a device that is coupled to hoses for releasing the fertilizer product.

[004] The document BR202015013556-0, filed on 06/10/2015 and published on 03/20/2018, is known from the state of the art, which refers to a deposit to store and transport mineral fertilizers, composing an equipment, which it is implanted on an agricultural cart in order to speed up the supply of containers and facilitate manual fertilization in areas that are difficult to access by traditional means; the fertilizer is stored in the deposit which has two versions in the capacity of 2.5m 3m and 3.5m; in this deposit, the product descends (unloaded) by gravity through three or nine exits (depending on the version) and in each one there is a register (drawer) that is manually activated for fast filling of containers or bags.

[005] Document PI8504962, deposited on 10/3/85 and published on 8/8/86, which describes equipment for the distribution of liquid fertilizer adapted in road tanks intended for distribution by gravity of vinasse in the field, comprising a double cylinder continuous divided in half by a sealed bearing,

2/6 forming two chambers, one with a plunger, which are attached to rods; each chamber is equipped with entrance holes; while the cylinder is driven with compressed air from a four-way valve, which alternates the flow on one side and the other of the cylinder's rear chamber, giving the double action effect.

[006] Document MU8702552-3, deposited on 12/27/2007 and published on 8/25/2009, describes a furrow trailer for the furrow of two lines with simultaneous distribution of fertilizer of any type, comprising a 01 bucket, 02 conveyor belts, a hydraulic motor, with 04 tires, 02 hydraulic pistons, 02 cover wheels, 02 furrowers, a digital display, 04 load cells, a bucket base chassis and 01 lower chassis.

[007] Therefore, in the state of the art, whether you have a completely manual solution, or else a solution commercially sold, that is, a tank mounted on the trailer.

[008] Technically, the known equipment is, as a rule, sold only in high-propulsion, particularly in complete form, ending up generating an extremely expensive and complex assembly (cart, tank and high propulsion), whose extension to medium and large farmers. small production ends up incorporating high cost to its final product. This, certainly, is reflected not only in the manufacturers but also and mainly for the final consumer.

ABOUT THE MODEL

[009] The model for which the utility model patent is applied for comprises a structural set with a built-in turbine, so that this set can be coupled to any fertilizer distribution cart.

OBJECTIVES OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[010] The purpose of this utility model is to make any fertilizer distribution cart able to apply fertilizers to the crop line, regardless of the crop that requires fertilizer application on the line.

[011] It is also the objective of the utility model to promote the fixation of the structure with a turbine to a fertilizer distribution cart pulled by a tractor, in order to

Petition 870180152871, of 11/19/2018, p. 5/28

3/6 to be able to apply in small areas with a timely and cost equally compatible with the different categories of farmers.

[012] Another purpose of the utility model is to provide a structure that, when not in use, can allow the use of the tractor in other applications.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[013] The structure with a built-in turbine has pivoting side arms, along which the distribution points of the fertilizer products are positioned. The structure can be coupled to a conventional cart, so that fertilizers can be applied to the crop by means of the air generated by the aforementioned turbine, so that the application is uniform, in any crop that requires application of fertilizers in the line, being said structure coupled to a distribution cart pulled by a tractor, enabling application in small areas in a timely manner.

[014] The structure also stands out for its versatility that allows its efficient operation in small areas in a timely manner, given that the bars or arms are capable of being articulated to a position at 90 degrees in relation to the working position, which facilitates maneuvers in smaller areas or with a shorter distance between streets.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE MODEL

[016] The “STRUCTURE WITH INCORPORATED TURBINE FOR COUPLING TO A FERTILIZER DISTRIBUTING CART”, object of this utility model patent application, comprises a prismatic rectangular structural set (1) containing vertical supports (2) of the adjustable type, to the whereas, between the two side portions (3) of the structural assembly (1), the signaling elements (4) necessary for movement in the traffic of the equipment, when connected to a distribution cart pulled by a tractor, are arranged at the rear.

[017] At the bottom of the structural assembly (1), a prismatic box (5) is fixed, in a transverse position to the equipment, which has, on opposite sides (6), nozzles
