Definitions
- the present invention generally relates to a device for distributing and discharging a liquid reagent. More specifically, the present invention relates to a rice transplanter-mounted liquid reagent application device, and a method of applying a liquid reagent during rice planting using the device.
- a rice transplanter-mounted chemical reagent application device is a machine that distributes granules, a liquid such as a suspension (flowable reagent or emulsion) or an aqueous solution or the like at the same time that the rice transplanter plants the seedlings.
- Rice transplanter-mounted chemical reagent application devices include devices designed for use with granules and devices designed for use with liquid reagents, depending on the properties of the chemical reagent to be applied, and not only enable the operation of applying control agents, which traditionally required a separate operation to rice planting, to be performed at the same time as rice planting, but also enable application of a fixed amount of the chemical reagent and the measuring of very small amounts.
- Rice transplanter-mounted granule application devices are able to perform uniform application of the granules by measuring an amount of granules using a metering device that operates in synchronization with the speed of rice planting, and then dropping the measured amount of granules onto a circular disk that is rotating at high speed, so that contact plates formed on the circular disk flick the granules off the disk, as disclosed in Japanese patent application laid-open publication Nos. JPH11-308959 and JP2008-048659, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
- Liquid reagent application devices that operate at the same time as rice planting employ a system wherein a tube that connects a tank with a nozzle is squeezed by using the action of a roller, as disclosed in "Common Technologies for Agrochemical Application - Soil Application”, “Agrochemical Application Technology”, (1998), edited by the “Agrochemical Application Technology” editorial committee, published by the Japan Plant Protection Association, page 122, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference.
- a liquid reagent application device for use during rice planting which is used by installation on the rear portion of a rice transplanter, is currently in use under the trade name "Tekika-man” (registered trademark No. 2,419,217), the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference.
- the "Tekika-man” application device has only one nozzle i.e. is a one-drip device. This frequently results in uneven dispersion of the liquid reagent, especially for low water-soluble active ingredients such as the herbicide oxadiargyl. Such uneven dispersion results in uneven control of weeds, pests and/or fungi and/or causes crop damage.
- Rice planting operations have traditionally been conducted in a shallow water state (with a submerged depth of 0 to 3 cm) in order to maintain the accuracy of the planting process.
- a conventional granule application device depending on the strength and angle at which the granules are scattered, some granules may become buried in the soil of the rice field, meaning the effect of the chemical reagent is not realized, and this can result in areas in which satisfactory weed eradication is not achieved.
- granules located closely to seedlings of the rice planted may cause phytotoxic effect against the seedlings.
- the granule application device may also be easily affected by wheather conditions such as rain fall and wind.
- the liquid reagent is unable to diffuse across the hillings of all 6 to 8 rows, meaning a uniform control effect is unattainable.
- the active ingredient of the chemical reagent tends not to diffuse satisfactorily, and the anticipated effect, such as weed eradication, pest control or control of fungal disease, may be unattainable.
- uneven distribution of the chemical reagent may also promote chemical damage of the rice plant.
- the embodiments of the present invention aim to at least partially improve at least a part of the points mentioned above, and provide a rice transplanter-mounted liquid reagent application device which can apply agrochemicals onto medium scale fields (rice fields with a surface area of 1,000 to 3,000 m 2 (0.1 to 0.3 ha) per field) and large scale fields (rice fields with a surface area exceeding 3,000 m 2 (0.3 ha) per field), as well as a method of applying a liquid reagent during rice planting that uses the device.
- medium scale fields rice fields with a surface area of 1,000 to 3,000 m 2 (0.1 to 0.3 ha) per field
- large scale fields rice fields with a surface area exceeding 3,000 m 2 (0.3 ha) per field
- the embodiments of the present invention enable a liquid reagent to be dripped uniformly (the error of dripping amount from each nozzle is less than 50%, 30%, 20% or 10% compared to the average dripping amount) to between a plurality of planted hillings following passage of a rice transplanter. Because the applied liquid reagent can diffuse across all of a plurality of hillings, a uniform control effect and superior safety of the paddy field rice plants (superior selectivity) can be achieved.
- the method according to the embodiments of the present invention can prevent the liquid reagent from making direct contact with the paddy field rice plants during application of the liquid reagent, and can therefore prevent chemical damage caused by contact of the liquid reagent with the leaves of the rice plants and further enhance growth of the rice plants effectively (more than 10% or 30% compared to untreated rice plant).
- a further advantage of the present invention over the prior art is an even dispersion of the liquid reagent, even if the liquid reagent has a very low or medium water solubility.

- the pump 12 may also be operated alone, in a continuous manner.
- the liquid reagent is discharged from the other ends 32b of each of the third pipelines 32.
- These other ends 32b of the third pipelines are positioned in the spaces between the scraper blades C of the rice transplanter, and as a result, the liquid reagent discharged from other ends 32b of the third pipelines 32 is dripped into all of the spaces between the hillings in the field in which the seedlings are planted.
- the liquid reagent is dripped intermittently into the spaces between the 6 rows of seedlings planted following passage of the rice transplanter, namely into all 5 spaces between the hillings, with an interval between the intermittent applications that corresponds with the driving speed of the rice transplanter.
- the liquid reagent is dripped intermittently into the spaces between the 8 rows of seedlings planted following passage of the rice transplanter, namely into all 7 spaces between the hillings, with an interval between the intermittent applications that corresponds with the driving speed of the rice transplanter. Because the dripped liquid reagent diffuses across all 6 or 8 rows of hillings, a uniform control effect can be obtained. Moreover, even if the depth of the water in the field during planting is shallow, the active ingredient of the chemical reagent can still be diffused satisfactorily.
- the liquid reagent was dripped into all of the spaces between a plurality of hillings planted by the rice transplanter, depending on the properties of the liquid reagent, the liquid reagent may only need to be dripped into some of the spaces between a plurality of hillings.
- some of the third pipelines 32 may be sealed using a separately prepared sealing mechanism (such as a clip), or the distribution unit may be exchanged with a unit having fewer third pipelines 32.
- a prepared liquid reagent is fed into the tank 10.
- the pump 12 is rotated continuously.
- the liquid reagent stored in the tank 10 is aspirated, and the aspirated liquid reagent is discharged from the pump 12.
- the liquid reagent discharged from the pump 12 forces any residual air inside the first pipeline 14 out from the other end 14b of the first pipeline 14 and into the air-catch chamber 18. As a result, the retention of dead air space in the first pipeline 14 almost never occurs.
- the liquid reagent that flows into the air-catch chamber 18 accumulates in the bottom of the air- catch chamber 18, and then flows into the end 16a of the second pipeline 16.
- the liquid reagent that flows into the second pipeline 16 flows into the distribution chamber 30, and then flows into the ends 32a of a plurality of third pipelines 32. Because the valves 40 impart flow resistance, the liquid reagent that flows into the third pipelines 32 is not immediately discharged from the other ends 32b of the third pipelines 32, and the internal pressure within the sequential pathway composed of the first pipeline 14, the air-catch chamber 18, the second pipeline 16, the distribution chamber 30 and the third pipelines 32 gradually increases as additional liquid reagent is supplied by the pump 12. During this period, no flow of the liquid reagent occurs through the path from the air-catch chamber 18 to the third pipelines 32.
- the ends 32a of the third pipelines 32 are located at higher positions than the other ends 32b of the same pipelines, and the end 16a of the second pipeline 16 is located at a higher position than the other end 16b of the same pipeline. Moreover, the other end 16b of the second pipeline 16 that is connected to the distribution chamber 30 is disposed at a higher position than the ends 32a of the third pipelines 32 connected to the distribution chamber 30.
- any air remaining inside the third pipelines 32 floats up through the third pipelines 32 towards the distribution chamber 30, any air remaining inside the distribution chamber 30 flows up into the second pipeline 16, and any air remaining inside the second pipeline 16 floats up through the second pipeline 16 towards the air-catch chamber 18.
- any air remaining inside the first pipeline 14 flows into the air-catch chamber 18 under the pressurizing action of the pump 12, whereas any air remaining inside the second pipeline 16, the distribution chamber 30 and the third pipelines 32 floats up into the air- catch chamber 18 as a result of the inherent height differences. In this manner, almost all of the air remaining within the pathway from the tank 10 through to the third pipelines 32 is collected within the air-catch chamber 18.
- the internal pressure within the sequential pathway composed of the first pipeline 14, the air- catch chamber 18, the second pipeline 16, the distribution chamber 30 and the third pipelines 32 gradually increases as additional liquid reagent is supplied by the pump 12, and when that internal pressure eventually exceeds the flow resistance imparted by the valves 40, the liquid reagent is discharged from the other ends 32b of the third pipelines 32.
- the exhaust valve 24 is opened, and the air accumulated inside the air-catch chamber 18 is extracted.
- the air inside the air-catch chamber 18 is also under pressure as a result of the increase in the internal pressure inside the sequential pathway, and is therefore discharged rapidly from the other end 23b of the exhaust pipe 23 that is open to the atmosphere.
- the expression "dripped uniformly" means that the drip amount of the liquid reagent from each of the other ends 32b may diverge by a maximum of 50% from the average drip amount of the liquid reagent across all of the other ends 32b, although this divergence is preferably not more than 30%, and most preferably 20% or less.
- the application unit 2 may be configured to include an optional tank 10' which stores a liquid reagent as shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
- the tank 10' is connected to the tank 10 through a pipeline 11.
- the one end of the pipeline 11 communicates with the tank 10' while the other end of the pipeline 11 communicates with the tank 10.
- the pipeline 11 includes a pump 12' used to draw the liquid reagent from the tank 10' and carry the reagent into the tank 10.
- a sensor 13 which detects whether or not the top surface of the liquid reagent contained in the tank 10 reaches a predetermined level and which sends a control signal to the pump 12' depending on the result of the detection.
- the tank 10' may be housed inside the casing 13a along with the tank 10, etc.
- the sensor 13 when the sensor 13 detects that the predetermined level is reached by the top surface of the liquid reagent, the sensor 13 sends a control signal to the pump 12' to deactivate the pump 12'. On the contrary, when the sensor 13 detects that the predetermined level is not reached by the top surface of the liquid reagent, the sensor 13 sends a control signal to the pump 12' to activate the pump 12'. Therefore, the top surface of the liquid reagent can be maintained at around the predetermined level.
- Fig. 5 is a schematic view illustrating the strucuture of the application unit 2' according to a further embodiment.
- the structure of the application unit according to the further embodiment will be described in detail below. It should be noted that only the structure specific to the further embodiment will be described and that the description regarding the structure common to that described above with rereference to Figs. 1 to 4 will be therefore omitted.
- Fig. 5 shows an application unit 2' according to a further embodiment.
- the pump 12 is connected to the distribution chamber 30 through a pipeline 52.
- One end of the pipeline 52 is connected to the pump 12 while an opposite end of the pipeline 52 is connected to the chamber 30.
- the pipeline 52 carries the liquid reagent drawn by the pump 12 to the chamber 30.
- an additional pipeline 54 Provided between the chamber 30 and the tank 10 is an additional pipeline 54.
- One end 54a of the pipeline 54 is connected to the tank 10 while opposite ends 54b, 54c of the pipeline 54 are connected to the chamber 30.
- two opposite ends 54b, 54c may be connected to both ends of the chamber 30 extending in a horizontal direction.
- the pipeline 54 receives the liquid reagent provided to the chamber 30 from the pump 12 and carries the received liquid reagent to the tank 10.
- the air may be forced to move toward either end of the chamber 30 because of the flow of the liquid reagent applied by the pumb 12.
- the air which tends to float in the liquid reagent, may finally reach the opposite end 54b or the opposite end 54c and then move upwardly along the pipeline 54. Therefore, the air may be carried to the tank 10 along the pipeline 54.
- the pipeline 54 may functions to receive the liquid reagent carried by the pipeline 52 and the chamber 30 and capture the air contained in the received liquid reagent.
- the difference in the amount of the liquid reagents which flow through the pipelines 32 may also be minimized and discharging flow of the air contained liquid reagent from one end 54a into the tank 10 stirs the liquid reagent in the tank 10 so then prevents segregation of the liquid reagent.
- Fig. 5 illustrates the best embodiment where the opposite ends 54b, 54c of the pipeline 54 are connected to both ends of the chamber 30.
- the opposite ends 54b, 54c of the pipeline 54 may be connected to any position distant from the both ends of the chamber 30 because these opposite ends 54b, 54c may capture the air present in the chamber 30 more or less.
- the air carried by the pipeline 52 might arrive at the positions near the both ends of the chamber 30 and then move downwardly to the pipelines 32, which may unintentionally increase the difference in the amount of the liquid reagent discharged by the pipelines 32. Therefore, the opposite ends 54b, 54c may be advantageously connected to both ends of the chamber 30 as illustrated in Fig. 5.
- the opposite ends 54b, 54c of the pipeline 54 may be advantageously connected to the top surface of the chamber 30 compared to the side surface or the bottom surface of the chamber 30.
- the opposite ends of the pipeline 54 may be connected to the side surface or the bottom surface of the chamber 30 because these opposite ends may still capture the air contained in the chamber 30 more or less.
- Fig. 5 may be implemented instead of or along with that described above with reference to Fig. 2.
- the structure illustrated in Fig. 5 may operate in cooperation with that illustrated in Fig. 2.
- the application units described above with reference to, for example, Figs. 2 and 5 may be advantageously mounted on a rice transplanter. However, the application units may also be mounted on any device which requires the structure where liquid reagents should be discharged from two or more pipelines (valves) so that the difference in the amount of the liquid reagents which flow through the pipelines (valves) may be minimized.
- Each pipeline 32 may include a cock 32c capable of selectively opening or closing, as described above with reference to Fig. 2.
- each cock 32c is also made closed.
- air may be produced anywhere in the unit 2' (for example, chamber 30, pipelines 52, 54, etc.)
- the pump 12 may be activated with each cock 32c closed.
- the air produced in the unit 2' may be captured by the pipeline 54 and carried back to the tank 10. Therefore, the amount of the air contained in the chamber 30 may be minimized.
- each cock 32 may be opened to allow each pipeline 32 to discharge the liquid reagent.
- the pipeline 54 may include a valve which is the same as the valve 40 described above near the one end 54a of the pipeline 54, as shown in Fig. 5. With the valve 40, the pressure of the reagent flowing through the one end 54a of the pipeline 54 can be adjusted to balance with that of the reagent flowing through the end 32b of each pipeline 32.
- Fig. 5 shows the valve 40 may be provided inside the tank 10, the valve 40 may also be provided outside the tank 10.
- the optional tank 10' and the elements associated with the tank 10' may be used to maintain the top surface of the liquid reagent contained in the tank 10 at around the predetermined level in the embodiment described with reference to Fig. 5.
