AGRICULTURE DEVICE FOR DISPENSING A LIQUID - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240009689 titled 'AGRICULTURE DEVICE FOR DISPENSING A LIQUID
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an agricultural device that includes a boom with a supply line for transporting liquid product and nozzles along the boom. Each nozzle is connected to the supply line and a liquid product supply is connected to the supply line for supplying the liquid product to be sprayed. The device also includes a pressure regulation unit with a nozzle controller for controlling the opening and closing of a nozzle. A speed detector measures the speed of the device.
The pressure regulation unit and/or the nozzle controller calculate nozzle timing data for each nozzle, including a spraying frequency and a maximum closing time. The speed of the device is provided to the pressure regulation unit and/or the nozzle controller for the calculation of nozzle operation data. The nozzle controller operates each of the nozzles based on the calculated nozzle timing data, ensuring that the maximum closing time is not exceeded to achieve a homogeneous spraying of the liquid product over a field's surface.
- The agricultural device includes a boom with a supply line and nozzles for spraying liquid product.
- A pressure regulation unit with a nozzle controller controls the opening and closing of each nozzle.
- The speed of the device is measured by a speed detector.
- Nozzle timing data, including spraying frequency and maximum closing time, is calculated for each nozzle.
- The nozzle controller operates the nozzles based on the calculated timing data to achieve uniform spraying.
- Potential applications of this technology include precision agriculture, crop protection, and efficient use of liquid products.
- This technology solves the problem of uneven spraying of liquid products over a field's surface.
- The benefits of this technology include improved crop yield, reduced waste of liquid products, and cost savings in agricultural operations.
