Description

 The invention relates to agricultural machinery.

 Known electrified irrigation agricultural units, such as the Kuban sprinkler.

 The disadvantage of these machines is that they can only water and fertilize plants and cannot do many other agricultural work.

 Known bridge units that can perform the whole set of work on growing plants from soil preparation to harvest. The agromost has wide-spreading platforms and spaced water distribution pipes, which ensures its high performance when used on long-range agricultural lands. However, on agricultural lands with a short length, up to square, which are much easier to distinguish in regions with a high population density and in the conditions of the existing historical development, it is not profitable to use such a highly productive and expensive agromost. It is structurally complex, metal-intensive, its weight and large dimensions make it difficult to move it from one agricultural land to another neighboring.

 The purpose of the invention is to simplify the design and reduce its metal consumption, which would ensure the profitability of its constant use on short agro-sites. To create a less productive, but simpler to manufacture, simpler structurally, cheaper at the price agromost, which could be made almost immediately and begin to be used both in relatively large and smaller enterprises on various rectangular shapes with a quiet relief.

 The possibility of achieving this goal is ensured by the fact that two multi-support trusses are fixed on boom consoles mounted on self-propelled carts transversely to the longitudinal axis of the agromost, while multi-span trusses are quadrangular in cross section, and conveyor belts are fixed on the upper truss planes, while on the rods are fixed transitional bridges with folding ladders.

 In FIG. 1 shows the end parts of the agromost, side view; in FIG. 2 same, top view.

 The device has two multi-support trusses 1 and 2, fixed on the consoles of the rods 3, mounted on self-propelled carts 4 transverse to the longitudinal axis of the agromost. Multiple support trusses have a quadrangular cross section in their forts and belt conveyors 5 are fixed on their upper planes 5. Transition bridges 6 with railings 7 and folding ladders are fixed on the rods 3. Self-propelled carts 4 are moved on wheels 9, driven by gear motors 10 through cardan 11 while the wheels of the double edge carts move along the hard edge tracks 12 with dividing guide rollers 13, and the wheels of the intermediate carts can move, for example, on rolled dirt tracks. Grooved guides are fixed on multi-support trusses 14. Rubberized wheels 15, supporting platforms 16, suspended to the wheel hubs through brackets 17, move along the gutters from the trunks 17. The rollers 18 located under the guides provide reliable platform movement and prevention of wheel runs 15 from the guides. The platform drive can be either electric or cable. A water distribution pipe 20 with irrigation nozzles is fixed on the tubular supports 19 of the carts 4. On the double edge carts, flooring 21 is fixed with a diesel generator 22, a water pump and other auxiliary equipment. Cable-stayed cables 23 are supported by rods 3, cable-stayed cables 24 provide the necessary rigidity for fixing the positions of the tops of self-propelled carts and a water distribution pipe 20. An empty container box 25 or a box loaded with agricultural products is transported by a conveyor belt.

 Agromost works as follows.

 In the presence of interchangeable agricultural implements that are fixed on the same or on a number of interchangeable platforms 16, the agromost can carry out all types of agricultural work necessary for growing low-stemmed plants and harvesting. For example, in order to perform selective collection of cucumbers, a platform lowered above the farmland is hung and the collectors lying on it stack the selectively assembled product in boxes 25, which at the right interval are delivered by conveyor belts from one deck 21 to another. Empty boxes that have been torn apart with platform 16 are removed and replaced by loaded ones, which are delivered to flooring 21 at the other end of the agro bridge, where they are loaded onto an external utility vehicle that comes close to the decks on hard-gauge plates 12.

 While the workers-assemblers are in a working position on their sofas, one of the workers gives them empty boxes removed from the conveyor 5 and puts the loaded boxes on the conveyor. At the same time, in order to go through the bar 3, when the platform slowly passes under one of them in a slow working movement, he uses a transition bridge 6 with a railing 7 and ladders 8 thrown down.

 After harvesting from strip B, the agromost moves frontally to strip B, and then to strip G, after which the agromost non-stop moves three steps forward to an adjacent work area.

 Depending on the specific strength of multi-support farms 1 and 2 and the weight of movable platforms 16 with agricultural implements, as well as the nature of the work performed, the agromost can be used in different ways: platforms can move along the farms in one direction in parallel and side by side; move towards each other, for example, when plowing; agromost can move in the mode of non-stop frontal movement, for example, when watering and fertilizing plants, as well as in start-stop mode, for example, when harvesting.

 In order to simplify and reduce the cost even more, the agromost may not have to be understaffed with belt conveyors 5: having accumulated the removed products on the platform 16 to the optimum weight, transfer them to another auxiliary platform. For this, the working movable platform 16 must stop, for example, over one of the intermediate running trolleys and wait until the auxiliary transport platform, along the same guides used by the working platform 16, comes close to the working one in order to accept the assembled products and transfer the batch of empty containers For loading.

 The useful effect of the device is as follows: the design of the agromost is simple and its metal consumption is significantly reduced; the desired width of the light universal agromost, which can immediately cover the entire width of the agricultural land (it is assumed that the maximum width of the agromost is not expedient for more than about 1 km for reasons related to the coefficient of thermal expansion and a number of other reasons) is easily achieved by a set of simple and inexpensive module spans, which allows achieving long-term cost-effective use of the agromost on short rectangular agricultural lands that are easier to find and highlight near large cities in order to supply them with laziness, vegetables, berries, potatoes; the design of the agro-bridge allows for the immediate assembly of a series of experimental agro-bridges almost entirely from serial units, for example: undercarriage from the Kuban sprinkler; a diesel generator providing agromost with electricity from the Kuban machine, as well as water supply equipment; multi-support trusses for the first experimental series to use ready-made serial trusses for hanging contact wire over branched railway tracks at stations, hundreds of kilometers of such trusses are manufactured in our country every five years and it remains only to weld two channels of the channel, which will give them additional carrying capacity and provide them with longitudinal guides; as interchangeable agricultural implements, use light ready-made serial implements, as well as those newly developed implements that are already used in single-span agromosts operating in greenhouses; use the front axle alignment system and control its work.
