次に、リモコン装置３１で散布量調整部２２の作動を操作する場合の操作方法に基いて本例の無線通信制御装置の内容を説明する。図５と図６はリモコン装置３１の操作盤を示したもので、図６の操作盤は図５の操作盤の下方に設けた目隠しシート３２を取り除いた状態を示したものである。図５の操作盤は、散布量調整部２２の操作を最もシンプルに流下量の調整のみ操作できる状態にしたものである。下方のシャッタ切換スイッチ３１９は、散布部が二つ設けられている場合に対応するための切換スイッチである。図６の操作盤の状態では、各種の操作モードによる操作によって、散布量調整部２２を多様に操作及び制御ができる。 Next, the contents of the wireless communication control device of this example will be described based on the operation method when operating the spraying amount adjusting unit 22 with the remote control device 31. 5 and 6 show the operation panel of the remote control device 31, and the operation panel of FIG. 6 shows a state in which the blindfold sheet 32 provided below the operation panel of FIG. 5 is removed. The operation panel of FIG. 5 is in a state where the operation of the spray amount adjusting unit 22 can be operated most simply by adjusting the flow amount. The lower shutter changeover switch 319 is a changeover switch for coping with the case where two spraying portions are provided. In the state of the operation panel in FIG. 6, the spray amount adjusting unit 22 can be variously operated and controlled by operations in various operation modes.
リモコン装置３１は、複数の操作モードを選択して実行できるように設けられていて、本例の場合は、散布量調整部２２のシャッタ板２２１の開度量のみ設定できる基本操作モードと、トラクタの走行車速、肥料の物性、単位面積当たりの散布量、散布幅の散布条件の何れか又は複数又は全部を変更設定すると、散布量調整部２２のシャッタ板２２１の開度量が演算され実行される車速優先モードと、速度条件を除く散布条件を設定すると装着されたトラクタからの速度情報信号等を取り入れて自動的にトラクタの走行速度に合わせて散布量調整部２２のシャッタ板２２１の開度量が逐次変更される車速連動モードが設けられている。車速連動モードは、さらにトラクタメーカごとに異なる信号に対応できるように３種類が設けられている。各モードの切替は、操作盤の電源スイッチ３１０と各モードごとに設定された他のスイッチを同時に押すと切替が行われる。切替後は、電源スイッチ３１０を入れ直しても切替後のモードが立ち上がり実行される。 The remote control device 31 is provided so that a plurality of operation modes can be selected and executed. In the case of this example, a basic operation mode in which only the opening amount of the shutter plate 221 of the spray amount adjusting unit 22 can be set, and the tractor When any one or a plurality or all of the traveling vehicle speed, the fertilizer properties, the spraying amount per unit area, and the spraying condition of the spraying width are changed and set, the opening amount of the shutter plate 221 of the spraying amount adjusting unit 22 is calculated and executed. When the priority mode and the spraying condition excluding the speed condition are set, the speed information signal from the mounted tractor is taken in and the opening amount of the shutter plate 221 of the spraying amount adjusting unit 22 is sequentially adjusted in accordance with the traveling speed of the tractor. A vehicle speed interlocking mode to be changed is provided. There are three types of vehicle speed interlocking modes so that different signals can be used for each tractor manufacturer. Switching between modes is performed by simultaneously pressing the power switch 310 of the operation panel and other switches set for each mode. After the switching, even after the power switch 310 is turned on again, the mode after the switching is started up and executed.
図５の操作盤の状態で操作する基本操作モードの場合の制御を図７のフロー図に基いて説明する。操作盤の電源スイッチ３１０と肥料の流下部であるシャッタ板２２１を開閉する流下部開閉スイッチ３１３の「出」と「止」スイッチを同時に押す（Ｓ１）と基本操作モードに切り替えが行われる（Ｓ２）。そして、肥料散布装置２に設けた散布量調整部２２の制御部３０に基本操作モードへの切替指令信号が送信され（Ｓ３）制御部３０が基本操作モード操作指示待機状態に設定される。 Control in the basic operation mode operated in the state of the operation panel of FIG. 5 will be described based on the flowchart of FIG. When the "exit" and "stop" switches of the lower switch 313 that opens and closes the shutter switch 313 that opens and closes the power switch 310 of the operation panel and the fertilizer flow are simultaneously pressed (S1), switching to the basic operation mode is performed (S2). ). Then, a switching command signal to the basic operation mode is transmitted to the control unit 30 of the application amount adjusting unit 22 provided in the fertilizer application device 2 (S3), and the control unit 30 is set to the basic operation mode operation instruction standby state.
次に、散布量調整部２２のポテンショメータ２２５の信号からシャッタ板２２１の開閉状態を確認する（Ｓ４）。シャッタ板２２１が開いた状態の場合は、リモコン装置３１の表示部３１１に流下部開閉スイッチ３１３である肥料散布スイッチ部の「止」スイッチを押してシャッタ板２２１を閉じる指示のメッセージを表示させる（Ｓ１３）。「止」スイッチが押される（Ｓ１４）と、シャッタ板２２１を閉じる指令信号が散布量調整部２２へ送信され（Ｓ１５）シャッタ板２２１が落下口を閉じる。 Next, the open / close state of the shutter plate 221 is confirmed from the signal of the potentiometer 225 of the application amount adjusting unit 22 (S4). When the shutter plate 221 is in the open state, a message for instructing to close the shutter plate 221 is displayed on the display unit 311 of the remote control device 31 by pressing the “stop” switch of the fertilizer application switch unit which is the flow-down opening / closing switch 313 (S13). ). When the “stop” switch is pressed (S14), a command signal for closing the shutter plate 221 is transmitted to the application amount adjusting unit 22 (S15), and the shutter plate 221 closes the dropping port.
シャッタ板２２１が落下口を閉じた状態となると、前回の開度設定値が呼び出されて表示部３１１に表示される（Ｓ１５）。散布時のシャッタ板２２１の開度値を変更する場合（Ｓ６）は、流下量設定スイッチ３１２である散布量調整スイッチ部の「増」「減」スイッチを押して開度値を変更する（Ｓ１６）。変更後、流下部開閉スイッチ３１３部の「出」スイッチを押すと（Ｓ７）、散布量調整部２２の制御部３０にシャッタ板２２１を開度設定値まで開く指令信号が発せられる（Ｓ８）。散布量調整部２２がシャッタ板２２１を開き散布作業が行われる状態となる（Ｓ９）。流下部開閉スイッチ３１３部の「止」スイッチを押すと（Ｓ１０）、シャッタ板２２１が落下口を閉じて散布が停止される（Ｓ１１）とともに、変更された開度値が記憶部に記憶される（Ｓ１２）。尚、シャッタ板２２１が開かれて散布作業中の状態でも開度設定値を変更できる。開度設定値は、単位面積当りの散布量と散布作業走行速度から計算して求めるが、一般的に予め計算されて設けた早見表等から開度値を求め設定する。 When the shutter plate 221 is closed, the previous opening setting value is called and displayed on the display unit 311 (S15). When changing the opening value of the shutter plate 221 at the time of spraying (S6), the opening value is changed by pressing the “increase” and “decrease” switches of the spraying amount adjustment switch unit which is the flow amount setting switch 312 (S16). . After the change, when the “exit” switch of the flow-down opening / closing switch 313 is pressed (S7), a command signal for opening the shutter plate 221 to the opening setting value is issued to the control unit 30 of the application amount adjusting unit 22 (S8). The application amount adjusting unit 22 opens the shutter plate 221 and the application operation is performed (S9). When the “stop” switch of the lower flow opening / closing switch 313 is pressed (S10), the shutter plate 221 closes the dropping port and the spraying is stopped (S11), and the changed opening value is stored in the storage unit. (S12). The opening setting value can be changed even when the shutter plate 221 is opened and the spraying operation is in progress. The opening setting value is obtained by calculating from the spraying amount per unit area and the spraying work traveling speed. Generally, the opening setting value is obtained and set from a quick reference table calculated and provided in advance.
リモコン装置３１の操作盤は、図５に示す基本操作モード操作状態から流下量設定スイッチ３１２部の下方部に貼り付けた目隠しシート３２を取り除くと、図６に示す操作盤の状態となり、車速優先モードと車速連動モードに切り替えて使用できる状態になる。 The operation panel of the remote control device 31 is in the state of the operation panel shown in FIG. 6 when the blind cover sheet 32 attached to the lower part of the flow amount setting switch 312 is removed from the basic operation mode operation state shown in FIG. Switch to mode and vehicle speed interlocking mode.
図６と図８に示すフロー図に基いて車速優先モードの場合を説明する。図６に示す操作盤において、電源スイッチ３１０と肥料の流下量を調整する散布量調整スイッチ３１２の「増」と「減」スイッチを同時に押す（Ｓ２０）と車速優先モードに切り替えが行われる（Ｓ２１）。そして、肥料散布装置２に設けた散布量調整部２２の制御部３０に車速優先モードへの切替指令信号が送信され制御部３０が車速優先モード操作指示待機状態に設定される。 The case of the vehicle speed priority mode will be described based on the flowcharts shown in FIGS. In the operation panel shown in FIG. 6, when the “increase” and “decrease” switches of the power switch 310 and the application amount adjustment switch 312 for adjusting the flow rate of fertilizer are pressed simultaneously (S20), the vehicle speed priority mode is switched (S21). ). And the switch command signal to vehicle speed priority mode is transmitted to the control part 30 of the spraying quantity adjustment part 22 provided in the fertilizer spreading apparatus 2, and the control part 30 is set to the vehicle speed priority mode operation instruction standby state.
立ち上げられた表示部３１１には、肥料散布装置２の機種設定の表示がされる。機種設定は、流下量設定スイッチ３１２の「増」「減」スイッチを押すと設定可能な機種が順次表示され、設定したい機種が表示された状態で右下の機種設定スイッチ３１８を押すと機種が設定される（Ｓ２２）。次回からは、設定操作を行わなくても設定された機種の操作モードで立ち上がる。 The set-up display unit 311 displays the model setting of the fertilizer application device 2. To set the model, press the “Increase” and “Decrease” switches of the flow rate setting switch 312 to sequentially display the settable models. When the model you want to set is displayed, press the model setting switch 318 in the lower right to select the model. It is set (S22). From the next time, it will start up in the operation mode of the set model without setting operation.
前記機種設定スイッチ３１８が押されると、散布量調整部２２のポテンショメータ２２５の信号からシャッタ板２２１の開閉状態を確認する（Ｓ２３）。シャッタ板２２１が開いた状態の場合は、リモコン装置３１の表示部３１１に流下部開閉スイッチ３１３である肥料散布スイッチ部の「止」スイッチを押してシャッタ板２２１を閉じる指示のメッセージを表示部に表示させる（Ｓ４６）。「止」スイッチが押される（Ｓ４７）と、シャッタ板２２１を閉じる指令信号が散布量調整部２２へ送信され（Ｓ４８）シャッタ板２２１が落下口を閉じる。 When the model setting switch 318 is pressed, the open / close state of the shutter plate 221 is confirmed from the signal of the potentiometer 225 of the application amount adjusting unit 22 (S23). When the shutter plate 221 is in the open state, a message for instructing to close the shutter plate 221 by pressing the “stop” switch of the fertilizer application switch unit which is the flow-down opening / closing switch 313 on the display unit 311 of the remote control device 31 is displayed on the display unit. (S46). When the “stop” switch is pressed (S47), a command signal for closing the shutter plate 221 is transmitted to the application amount adjusting unit 22 (S48), and the shutter plate 221 closes the dropping port.
シャッタ板２２１が閉じられたことが確認されると、設定呼出スイッチ３１４が操作できる状態となる。設定呼出スイッチ３１４は、予め設定した散布条件を記憶部に記憶しておくとともに呼び出しができるように設けられている。本例においては、３種類の設定が記憶可能で横に３個のスイッチが設けられている。設定呼出スイッチ３１４は、各圃場ごとの設定値を記憶させておくと、圃場ごとに設定操作をせずに一瞬で設定値を呼び出しできて作業を効率よく行える。また、肥料等の物性ごとに、粉状、砂状、粒状のように分けて登録することも可能である。 When it is confirmed that the shutter plate 221 is closed, the setting call switch 314 can be operated. The setting call switch 314 is provided so that preset spraying conditions are stored in the storage unit and can be called. In this example, three types of settings can be stored, and three switches are provided beside. If the setting call switch 314 stores the setting value for each field, the setting value can be called instantly without performing the setting operation for each field, and work can be performed efficiently. Moreover, it is also possible to register separately for each physical property such as fertilizer such as powder, sand, and granular.
いずれかの設定呼出スイッチ３１４を押すと前回設定した散布条件が表示部に表示される（Ｓ２４）。設定値の変更を行わないでよい場合は、流下部開閉スイッチ（肥料散布スイッチ）３１３の「出」を押すとシャッタ板２２１が開き散布作業が開始状態となる（Ｓ４１）。散布条件は、車速、肥料の物性、単位面積当たりの散布量をそれぞれ変更できる。 When any one of the setting call switches 314 is pressed, the previously set spraying condition is displayed on the display unit (S24). When it is not necessary to change the set value, the shutter plate 221 is opened by pressing “out” of the lower flow opening / closing switch (fertilizer application switch) 313, and the application work is started (S41). The spraying conditions can change the vehicle speed, the physical properties of the fertilizer, and the spraying amount per unit area.
車速を変更する場合は、流下部開閉スイッチ３１３の「出」スイッチを押す（Ｓ２６）と車速設定値を変更可能となり、流下量設定スイッチ３１２の「増」「減」スイッチで変更する（Ｓ２７）。変更が行われると、変更値に基いてシャッタ板２２１の開度が演算され変更される（Ｓ２８）。流下部開閉スイッチ３１３の「止」スイッチを押す（Ｓ２９）と設定値が記憶される（Ｓ３０）。 When the vehicle speed is changed, the vehicle speed setting value can be changed by pressing the “out” switch of the flow-down opening / closing switch 313 (S26), and is changed by the “increase” and “decrease” switches of the flow amount setting switch 312 (S27). . When the change is made, the opening degree of the shutter plate 221 is calculated and changed based on the change value (S28). When the “stop” switch of the lower flow opening / closing switch 313 is pressed (S29), the set value is stored (S30).
肥料の物性条件を変更する場合は、設定ボタンの肥料設定スイッチ３１５を押す（Ｓ３１）と変更可能状態となり、流下量設定スイッチ３１２の「増」「減」スイッチを押すと「粉」、「砂」、「粒」がそれぞれ順番に表示部に表示され（Ｓ３２）、変更したい肥料物性の表示状態で肥料設定スイッチ３１５を押す（Ｓ３３）と、変更された物性条件に応じてシャッタ板２２１の開度が演算され変更される（Ｓ３４）。選定している設定呼出スイッチ３１４を押す（Ｓ３５）と、変更された設定値が記憶部に記憶される（Ｓ３０）。 When changing the physical property conditions of the fertilizer, the fertilizer setting switch 315 of the setting button is pressed (S31), and the change is possible. When the “increase” and “decrease” switches of the flow rate setting switch 312 are pressed, “powder”, “sand” ”And“ grain ”are sequentially displayed on the display unit (S32), and when the fertilizer setting switch 315 is pressed in the display state of the fertilizer physical property to be changed (S33), the shutter plate 221 is opened according to the changed physical property condition. The degree is calculated and changed (S34). When the selected setting call switch 314 is pressed (S35), the changed setting value is stored in the storage unit (S30).
単位面積当たりの散布量を変更する場合は、設定ボタンの散布量設定スイッチ３１６を押す（Ｓ３６）と変更可能状態となり、表示部に表示される散布量を流下量設定スイッチ３１２の「増」「減」スイッチを押すと変更表示され、変更したい数値を表示した状態で散布量設定スイッチ３１６を押す（Ｓ３８）と、変更された条件に応じてシャッタ板２２１の開度が演算され変更される（Ｓ３９）。選定している設定呼出スイッチ３１４を押す（Ｓ４０）と、変更された設定値が記憶部に記憶される（Ｓ３０）。 When changing the spraying amount per unit area, the spraying amount setting switch 316 of the setting button is pressed (S36), and it becomes a changeable state. The spraying amount displayed on the display unit is set to “Increase” and “Lower”. When the "decrease" switch is pressed, the change is displayed, and when the spray amount setting switch 316 is pressed in a state where the numerical value to be changed is displayed (S38), the opening degree of the shutter plate 221 is calculated and changed according to the changed condition ( S39). When the selected setting call switch 314 is pressed (S40), the changed setting value is stored in the storage unit (S30).
各散布条件が決定され散布作業を開始するには、走行を開始と同時に肥料散布スイッチである流下部開閉スイッチ３１３部の「出」スイッチを押す（Ｓ４１）と、散布量調整部２２の制御部３０に指令信号が送信され（Ｓ４２）、シャッタ板２２１が開かれて散布物の散布が開始される（Ｓ４３）。そして、散布を終了するには、肥料散布スイッチである流下部開閉スイッチ３１３の「止」スイッチを押す（Ｓ４４）と散布量調整部２２のシャッタ板２２１は落下口を閉じて散布が停止される（Ｓ４５）。電源スイッチ３１０をオフにしても変更された散布条件は記憶され、再び電源スイッチ３１０をオンするとオフ時の状態と同じ操作待ち状態で立ち上げられる。 In order to start the spraying work after each spraying condition is determined, simultaneously with the start of traveling, the “departure” switch of the lower flow opening / closing switch 313 that is a fertilizer spraying switch is pressed (S41), and the control unit of the spraying amount adjusting unit 22 A command signal is transmitted to 30 (S42), the shutter plate 221 is opened, and spraying of the sprayed material is started (S43). Then, in order to end the spraying, when the “stop” switch of the lower flow opening / closing switch 313 which is a fertilizer spraying switch is pressed (S44), the shutter plate 221 of the spraying amount adjusting unit 22 closes the dropping port and the spraying is stopped. (S45). Even if the power switch 310 is turned off, the changed spraying condition is stored, and when the power switch 310 is turned on again, the operation is started in the same operation waiting state as the off state.
その他の散布条件として散布幅の変更も可能であるが、前記肥料の物性条件や散布量の変更と同じ操作となるため説明を省略する。 Although it is possible to change the spreading width as other spreading conditions, the description is omitted because it is the same operation as the change of the physical property condition and the spreading amount of the fertilizer.
操作盤下方部に設けた設定ボタンのモード切替スイッチ３１９は、シャッタ板２２１を回動させホッパ底板２２０の落下口を全開にして掃除やホッパ２０内の残留する散布物を排出するためのもので、モード切替スイッチ３１９を押すと散布条件の設定値に関わらずシャッタ板２２１は落下口を全開状態とする。左右切替スイッチは、散布部が二つ設けられている機種の場合の調整のための切換スイッチで、左右それぞれ切換えてから前記の散布部が一つの場合の調整と同じような操作で設定を行う。 A mode changeover switch 319 of a setting button provided at the lower part of the operation panel is for rotating the shutter plate 221 to fully open the drop port of the hopper bottom plate 220 and discharging the remaining sprayed material in the hopper 20. When the mode switch 319 is pressed, the shutter plate 221 fully opens the drop port regardless of the setting value of the spraying condition. The left / right switch is a switch for adjustment in the case of a model with two spraying units, and is set by the same operation as the adjustment in the case of one spraying unit after switching left and right respectively. .
図６と図９に示すフロー図に基いて車速連動モードの場合を説明する。車速連動モードは、単位面積当たりの散布量を一定にするためにトラクタ１の変化する走行速度に合わせて散布量を逐次変化させて散布を行う。従って、散布速度以外の条件を設定すると、トラクタ１からの速度信号を基にシャッタ板２２１の開放度合いを逐次自動調整して散布作業が行われる。このため、トラクタ１が停止するとシャッタ板２２１が自動的に閉じられ、走行が開始されると自動的にシャッタ板２２１が走行速度に合わせて自動開閉する。図６の操作盤において、電源スイッチ３１０と設定呼出スイッチ３１４の三カ所のスイッチのうち左右両側のスイッチを同時に押す（Ｓ６０）と車速連動モードに切り替えが行われる（Ｓ６１）。そして、肥料散布装置２に設けた散布量調整部２２の制御部３０に車速連動モードへの切替指令信号が送信され制御部３０が車速連動モード操作指示待機状態に設定される。 The case of the vehicle speed interlocking mode will be described based on the flowcharts shown in FIGS. In the vehicle speed interlocking mode, in order to make the spraying amount per unit area constant, spraying is performed by sequentially changing the spraying amount according to the traveling speed at which the tractor 1 changes. Therefore, when conditions other than the spraying speed are set, the spraying operation is performed by sequentially and automatically adjusting the degree of opening of the shutter plate 221 based on the speed signal from the tractor 1. For this reason, when the tractor 1 is stopped, the shutter plate 221 is automatically closed, and when traveling is started, the shutter plate 221 automatically opens and closes according to the traveling speed. In the operation panel of FIG. 6, when the left and right switches among the three switches of the power switch 310 and the setting call switch 314 are simultaneously pressed (S60), the mode is switched to the vehicle speed interlocking mode (S61). And the switch command signal to vehicle speed interlocking mode is transmitted to the control part 30 of the spraying amount adjustment part 22 provided in the fertilizer spreading apparatus 2, and the control part 30 is set to the vehicle speed interlocking mode operation instruction standby state.
立ち上げられた表示部３１１には、肥料散布装置２の機種設定の表示がされる。機種設定は、流下量設定スイッチ３１２の「増」「減」スイッチを押すと設定可能な機種が順次表示され、設定したい機種が表示された状態で右下の機種設定スイッチ３１８を押すと機種が設定される（Ｓ２２）。次回からは、設定操作を行わなくても設定された機種の操作モードで立ち上がる。 The set-up display unit 311 displays the model setting of the fertilizer application device 2. To set the model, press the “Increase” and “Decrease” switches of the flow rate setting switch 312 to sequentially display the settable models. When the model you want to set is displayed, press the model setting switch 318 in the lower right to select the model. It is set (S22). From the next time, it will start up in the operation mode of the set model without setting operation.
前記機種設定スイッチ３１８が押されると、散布量調整部２２のポテンショメータ２２５の信号からシャッタ板２２１の開閉状態を確認する（Ｓ６３）。シャッタ板２２１が開いた状態の場合は、リモコン装置３１の表示部３１１に流下部開閉スイッチ３１３である肥料散布スイッチ部の「止」スイッチを押してシャッタ板２２１を閉じる指示のメッセージを表示部に表示させる（Ｓ８７）。「止」スイッチが押される（Ｓ８８）と、シャッタ板２２１を閉じる指令信号が散布量調整部２２へ送信され（Ｓ８９）シャッタ板２２１が落下口を閉じる。 When the model setting switch 318 is pressed, the open / close state of the shutter plate 221 is confirmed from the signal of the potentiometer 225 of the application amount adjusting unit 22 (S63). When the shutter plate 221 is in the open state, a message for instructing to close the shutter plate 221 by pressing the “stop” switch of the fertilizer application switch unit which is the flow-down opening / closing switch 313 on the display unit 311 of the remote control device 31 is displayed on the display unit. (S87). When the “stop” switch is pressed (S88), a command signal for closing the shutter plate 221 is transmitted to the application amount adjusting unit 22 (S89), and the shutter plate 221 closes the dropping port.
シャッタ板２２１が閉じられたことが確認されると、前記設定呼出スイッチ３１４が操作できる状態となる。任意の前回までの散布設定条件を呼び出し（Ｓ６４）、変更が無い場合は車速連動での散布作業が開始できる状態となる。 When it is confirmed that the shutter plate 221 is closed, the setting call switch 314 can be operated. Any previous spray setting condition is called (S64), and if there is no change, the spraying operation in conjunction with the vehicle speed can be started.
散布条件の変更を行う場合は、前記車速優先モードのときと同様に、変更したい条件の散布幅設定スイッチ３１７、散布量設定スイッチ３１６、肥料設定スイッチ３１５をそれぞれ押して（Ｓ６６、Ｓ７２、Ｓ７７）設定情報値を表示部に表示させ流下量設定スイッチ３１２の「増」「減」スイッチでそれぞれ変更し（Ｓ６７、Ｓ７３、Ｓ７８）、それぞれの選定した設定ボタンのスイッチを押し、設定呼出スイッチを押して条件を決定させる。すると設定値が記憶される（Ｓ７１）。 When changing the spraying conditions, as in the vehicle speed priority mode, the spraying width setting switch 317, the spraying amount setting switch 316, and the fertilizer setting switch 315 of the conditions to be changed are respectively set (S66, S72, S77). The information value is displayed on the display unit and changed by the “increase” and “decrease” switches of the flow amount setting switch 312 (S67, S73, S78), the switch of each selected setting button is pressed, and the setting call switch is pressed to select the condition. Let me decide. Then, the set value is stored (S71).
散布条件設定が終了すると、変更した散布条件で散布開始が可能となり、肥料散布スイッチである流下部開閉スイッチ３１３の「出」スイッチを押す（Ｓ８２）と散布量調整部２２の制御部３０へ指令信号が送信されシャッタ板２２１が作動状態となる（Ｓ８３）。車速連動モードの場合、走行車であるトラクタ１の走行速度によってシャッタ板２２１の開度が変化するため、走行を開始しないと散布が開始されない。走行が開始されると、単位面積当たりの散布量を一定にするためにトラクタ１からの車速信号を受信しながら（Ｓ９０）速度に応じた開度が逐次演算され（Ｓ９１）、散布量調整部２２の制御（Ｓ９２、Ｓ９３）が走行が行われている間又は流下部開閉スイッチ３１３の「止」スイッチが押される（Ｓ８５）まで行われる。 When the spraying condition setting is completed, spraying can be started under the changed spraying condition. When the “departure” switch of the lower flow opening / closing switch 313 which is a fertilizer spraying switch is pressed (S82), a command is sent to the control unit 30 of the spraying amount adjusting unit 22 A signal is transmitted and the shutter plate 221 is activated (S83). In the vehicle speed interlocking mode, since the opening degree of the shutter plate 221 changes depending on the traveling speed of the tractor 1 that is a traveling vehicle, spraying is not started unless the traveling is started. When traveling is started, an opening according to the speed is sequentially calculated (S91) while receiving a vehicle speed signal from the tractor 1 in order to keep the spraying amount per unit area constant (S90), and the spraying amount adjusting unit The control 22 (S92, S93) is performed while the vehicle is traveling or until the “stop” switch of the flow-down switch 313 is pressed (S85).
車速連動モードは、トラクタメーカごとによって車速信号が異なる場合もあり、その場合はさらにモードを追加して対応を行うことができる。本例においては、図６の操作盤において電源スイッチ３１０と肥料設定スイッチ３１５と散布幅設定スイッチ３１７の三カ所のスイッチを同時に押すと、他のメーカトラクタの車速連動モードに切り替えが行われる。さらに、電源スイッチ３１０と左右切替スイッチと機種設定スイッチ３１８を同時に押すと、さらに他のメーカトラクタの車速連動モードに切り替えが行われる。 In the vehicle speed interlocking mode, the vehicle speed signal may differ depending on the tractor manufacturer, and in that case, it is possible to cope by adding a mode. In this example, when the three switches of the power switch 310, the fertilizer setting switch 315, and the spraying width setting switch 317 are simultaneously pressed on the operation panel of FIG. 6, switching to the vehicle speed interlocking mode of other manufacturer tractors is performed. Further, when the power switch 310, the left / right changeover switch, and the model setting switch 318 are pressed at the same time, the vehicle speed interlocking mode of another manufacturer tractor is switched.
本発明の無線通信制御装置３を備えた肥料散布装置２で肥料散布作業を行うには、走行車であるトラクタ１後方の３点リンク機構に肥料散布装置２を装着し、トラクタ１のバッテリ１０と散布量調整部２２をハーネス１１によって連結し、散布量調整部２２の電動作動を可能とする。また、肥料散布装置２の散布部２１を駆動するために、トラクタ１の図示していないＰＴＯ軸と入力軸をユニバーサルジョイントで連結すると肥料等の散布作業が可能状態となる。車速連動モードで作業する場合は、トラクタ１側からの車速信号を散布量調整部２２が受け取るためのハーネスの配線を行う。 In order to perform the fertilizer spraying operation with the fertilizer spraying device 2 provided with the wireless communication control device 3 of the present invention, the fertilizer spraying device 2 is mounted on the three-point link mechanism behind the tractor 1 which is a traveling vehicle, and the battery 10 of the tractor 1 is attached. And the spraying amount adjusting unit 22 are connected by the harness 11 so that the spraying amount adjusting unit 22 can be electrically operated. Moreover, in order to drive the spraying part 21 of the fertilizer spraying apparatus 2, if the PTO shaft (not shown) and the input shaft of the tractor 1 are connected with a universal joint, the spraying work of fertilizer or the like becomes possible. When working in the vehicle speed interlocking mode, wiring of a harness for receiving the vehicle speed signal from the tractor 1 side by the application amount adjusting unit 22 is performed.
リモコン装置３１の操作によって、操作モードを選択し散布条件を設定し、トラクタ１を走行させるとともに、シャッタ板２２１の開閉を行う流下部開閉スイッチ３１３の「出」スイッチを押す操作によって肥料等の散布物の散布が行われる。散布を停止するには、流下部開閉スイッチ３１３の「止」スイッチを押す操作によってシャッタ板２２１が閉じられ散布が停止される。車速連動モードでの散布作業は、散布する単位面積当たりの散布量を入力するだけで、トラクタ１の走行速度に合わせて散布量を自動制御して均一に散布が行われる。 By operating the remote control device 31, the operation mode is selected, the spraying conditions are set, the tractor 1 is driven, and the fertilizer and the like are sprayed by pressing the “exit” switch of the lower flow switch 313 that opens and closes the shutter plate 221. Things are sprayed. In order to stop the spraying, the shutter plate 221 is closed by pressing the “stop” switch of the flow-down opening / closing switch 313 and the spraying is stopped. In the spraying operation in the vehicle speed interlocking mode, the spraying amount per unit area to be sprayed is simply input, and the spraying amount is automatically controlled according to the traveling speed of the tractor 1 to perform spraying uniformly.
