Description

DESCRIPTION

Aggregate bag filler.

Technical sector

The invention falls within the agricultural sector more specifically in the plant nursery area, in which it will be used for seed sowing, planting of seedlings and filling of aggregate bags.

State of the art

Currently there is no known type of invention or tool similar to this invention, there are some inventions that I know fit within this field but are far from what is here. For example, the publication with reference USD766533 (S) and title Sand bag filler allows you to fill bags, but only one at a time and the execution of such work would be manual, on the contrary our solvent machine is because it allows filling of multiple bags at the same time and the completion of the filling work is done by the machine itself. The invention US6283178 (B1), which is called Bag filler attachment for a sander, also allows you to fill bags of aggregates and even large sizes, but you can only fill them one at a time.

Description of the invention

The technical problem that arises is to be able to fill bags of aggregates, leaving them planted and placed in the definitive place, without having to carry out tedious operations, without the need to have to carry out the work in an awkward position.

Currently, the work of filling aggregate bags is carried out in an uncomfortable and even painful posture, accentuating more and more throughout the working day, the person in charge of filling bags must be kneeling on the floor and through a saucepan fill the bag of mud or sand depending on the subsequent tree to be planted or sown, after filling it, place it in a pile so that another person removes them to place them in their final place, after being placed in their place they will be ready to be planted (through a seedling or root ball) or sown (through seed) by another person, who will make a hole in the mud or sand to introduce the root ball or seed.

Because there is no prior state of the art or that it is almost non-existent, the invention has several advantages such as the resolution of bad posture when working, leaving the bag in its final place in situ and planting it in an integrated way together With its filling, it is proposed as a solution the use of the invention presented here which allows filling multiple bags at once, planting them in parallel to their filling and leaving them placed in their respective place.

The aggregate bag filler is a machine that consists of several tubes, which are embedded in a hopper which is raised by two actuators and that being elevated can rotate thanks to the bearings it has, which allows the insertion of several bags, travels throughout the work environment thanks to the wheels that have its chassis in the lower part and whose tractor is driven by a hydraulic motor.

Description of the content of the figures

The invention is composed of a hopper (1) at the bottom of which an iron (2) with a series of holes of circular section are arranged which are equally spaced longitudinally and transversely creating a matrix of holes.

At these points we will attach tubes (3), of which some may be of some metallic material

To this hopper we will join by welding two bars at the height of its center of gravity, which together with a bearing (4) will allow the rotation of the hopper union tubes.

On the outside of the bearing we will join other bars in the form of r (5), which at their other ends will be connected to the heads of hydraulic actuators (6), which will allow us to raise and lower the entire assembly.

The hydraulic actuators (6) will be attached to a chassis (7), which wraps around the hopper, allows us to move the entire machine through the 4 wheels that it has in its lower part and that serves as the basis for the entire placement of those elements that allow the machine to operate (8), such as:

- Battery (8.1)

- Hydraulic pump (8.2)

- Hydraulic Distributor (8.3)

- Bucket Valve (8.4)

- Oil Tank (8.5)

For movement along the work area we will have a hydraulic motor (9) that will be connected to the tractor axle.

The aggregate bag filler (10) remains completely defined.

Embodiment of the invention

For the realization of the invention we will begin by sizing perforated plates which must be laser cut, because this operation must be carried out with great control over the cut and great dimensional control to avoid future problems or interference.

After this we will cut and weld the plates that will make up the hopper, we will proceed to the union of the iron pipes to the perforated plates, when we have them attached to the two plates we weld these to the hopper, thus remaining a set hopper tubes.

Now we will join the tubes to the previous set.

We weld two iron rods at the height of its center of gravity and at the other end of these we will weld a bearing, the side skirts will be welded to the assembly, always leaving a gap that allows the correct filling of the bag and preventing it from falling while the hopper-tube assembly is lifted.

Having already the maximum dimensions of our hopper we will build the chassis that will wrap it, which will be composed of several iron rules, to this chassis we will attach two crazy wheels and two tractor wheels. Hydraulic actuators will be attached to this chassis by welding or mechanical joining.

One of the ends of the r-shaped rods will be attached to the heads of the hydraulic actuators and the other end will be welded to the outside of the bearing perpendicular to the rods that are attached to the tube hopper assembly.

We will weld the supports for the placement of battery, distributor, valve, pump, tank. After this we will place the hydraulic sleeves.

Industrial application

The industrial application of this invention would be aimed at nurseries or all those companies related to the plantation environment. The way in which this invention is susceptible to industrial application is that its use causes the transformation of tedious work to machine work in the field of filling and planting bags of aggregates.

Claims (1)

1. Filler bag aggregates (10), characterized in that the hopper (1) is raised vertically by two hydraulic actuators (6), which can also be electric actuators, by means of a system of cables and pulleys or a mixture of them. It has a hydraulic motor (9) that allows it to move horizontally, it can also be an electric or combustion engine. The hopper () has bearings (4) that allow it to rotate to allow the insertion of bags in the tubes (3) that are embedded in an iron (2) that have a matrix of holes. It has a hydraulic distributor (8.3) that allows you to regulate the rise and fall of hydraulic actuators (6). It has a bucket valve (8.4) to cause the rise and fall at the same time and at the same speed of the two hydraulic actuators (6). It has wheels attached to a chassis (7) that allows movement on the work surface. It has a hydraulic pump (8.2) powered by a battery (8.1).
