以下では、図5を参照として、本発明の一実施形態に係るコンベア式排出装置を有する農業用ドローン1の全体的な作動方法について詳細に説明する。 In the following, with reference to FIG. 5, the overall operation method of the agricultural drone 1 having the conveyor type discharge device according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

先ず、ドローン本体10の脚部12に設けられている貯蔵タンク20の蓋部21を開き、貯蔵空間内に農薬を投入する。その後、無線操縦機を用いて農薬を散布すべき農耕地の上空でドローン本体10が飛行するようにする。 First, the lid 21 of the storage tank 20 provided on the leg 12 of the drone body 10 is opened, and the pesticide is put into the storage space. After that, the drone body 10 is made to fly over the farmland where the pesticide should be sprayed by using the radio control machine.

ドローン本体10が、農薬を撒く農耕地の上空に到着すると、無線操縦機で排出装置30の駆動モータ34を作動させる。駆動モータ34が作動すると、駆動モータ34の軸とその軸が噛合している駆動ローラ33が回転し、駆動ローラ33とベルト35とによって連結されているアイドルローラ31も同時に回転しながらベルト35が一方向に回転する。このとき、ベルト35の回転方向は、貯蔵空間の内部で下側から上側に、貯蔵空間の外部で上側から下側に移動しながら、ベルト35全体が連続回転することになる。 When the drone body 10 arrives above the farmland where the pesticide is sprayed, the drive motor 34 of the discharge device 30 is operated by the radio control device. When the drive motor 34 operates, the shaft of the drive motor 34 and the drive roller 33 in which the shaft meshes with each other rotate, and the idle roller 31 connected by the drive roller 33 and the belt 35 also rotates at the same time while the belt 35 moves. Rotate in one direction. At this time, the rotation direction of the belt 35 is that the entire belt 35 continuously rotates while moving from the lower side to the upper side inside the storage space and from the upper side to the lower side outside the storage space.

貯蔵空間内で下側から上側に移動するベルト35に沿って粉状または錠剤状の農薬が連続して搬送され、搬送された農薬は、排出口32を通じて外部に排出され、農耕地にまんべんなく散布される。 Powdered or tablet-shaped pesticides are continuously transported along a belt 35 that moves from the lower side to the upper side in the storage space, and the transported pesticides are discharged to the outside through the discharge port 32 and evenly sprayed on the farmland. Will be done.

そして農耕地全体に農薬が撒かれるまでドローン本体10は、農耕地の上空で繰り返し飛行する。 Then, the drone body 10 repeatedly flies over the cultivated land until the pesticide is spread over the cultivated land.

以上のようなコンベア式排出装置を有する農業用ドローン1によれば、貯蔵タンク20の内部に入った農薬がコンベアベルト式排出装置30によって下側から上側に順次搬送され、搬送された農薬が外部に定量排出できるため、農薬を所定の散布領域内にムラなく均一に散布することができる。 According to the agricultural drone 1 having the conveyor type discharge device as described above, the pesticides that have entered the inside of the storage tank 20 are sequentially transported from the lower side to the upper side by the conveyor belt type discharge device 30, and the transported pesticides are externally transported. Since the pesticide can be discharged in a fixed amount, the pesticide can be evenly and evenly sprayed in the predetermined spraying area.
