Method and device at a planter or a seed drill
The invention refers to a method at a seed drill ( 1 ) or a planter for placing seeds ( 27 ) in the soil. According to the invention the steps executed are that each seed fed out is detected, its placement site in the soil is determined through detection and at least one compound ( 26, 28 ) is placed intermittently at at least one predetermined placement site in relation to the specific placement site of each seed. The invention also refers to a device ( 4 ) for execution of the method.
1. A method for a seed drill or a planter for placing seeds in soil, comprising:
detecting each seed that is fed out and determining a placement site for each seed in the soil through the detection, and
placing fertiliser and or at least one chemical compound intermittently at an approximate predetermined distance from the placement site of each seed, wherein
a mouth of at least one transport tube for said fertiliser and/or said at least one chemical compound is positioned relative to placement of the seeds in the soil and is moved such that the speed of said mouth relative to the soil is decreased.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said at least one transport tube can be restored automatically to a stalling position by coiling to achieve a recoiling action or by means of a spring.
3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein a plurality of chemical compounds are laid out simultaneously and continually, in the form of a string or band; at a predetermined distance from the specific placement site of each seed.
4. The method according to claim 2 , wherein a valve is regulated such that after each seed has been placed at a specific site in a seed furrow by means of said detection, said fertiliser and/or said at least one chemical compound is placed at at least one predetermined placement site relative to each seed.
5. A feed device for execution of the method for the planter or seed drill for placing seeds in the soil according to claim 2 , said feed device being provided with control members in order to detect each fed seed and intermittently place at least one compound at an approximate predetermined distance from the specific placement site of each seed, wherein said control member is arranged to control the mouth of at least one transportation tube for said fertiliser and/or said at least one chemical compound such that said mouth is positioned relative to placement of the seeds in the soil and is moved in order to decrease the speed of said mouth relative to the soil.
6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of compounds are laid out simultaneously and continually in the form of a string or band, at a predetermined distance from the specific placement site of each seed.
7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein a valve is regulated such that after each seed has been placed at a specific site in a seed furrow by means of said detection, said fertiliser and/or said at least one chemical compound is placed at at least one predetermined placement site relative to each seed.
8. A feed device for execution of the method for the planter or the seed drill for placing seeds in the soil according to claim 6 , said feed device being provided with control members in order to detect each fed seed and intermittently place at least one compound at an approximate predetermined distance from the specific placement site of each seed, wherein said control member is arranged to control the mouth of at least one transportation tube for said fertiliser and/or said at least one chemical compound such that said mouth is positioned relative to placement of the seeds in the soil and is moved in order to decrease the speed of said mouth relative to the soil.
9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a valve is regulated such that after each seed has been placed at a specific site in a seed furrow by means of said detection, said fertiliser and/or said at least one chemical compound is placed at at least one predetermined placement site relative to each seed.
10. A feed device for execution of the method for the planter or the seed drill for placing seeds in the soil according to claim 9 , said feed device being provided with control members in order to detect each fed seed and intermittently place at least one compound at an approximate predetermined distance from the specific placement site of each seed, wherein said control member is arranged to control the mouth of at least one transportation tube for said fertiliser and/or said at least one chemical compound such that said mouth is positioned relative to placement of the seeds in the soil and is moved in order to decrease the speed of said mouth relative to the soil.
11. A feed device for execution of the method for the planter or a seed drill for placing seeds in the soil according to claim 1 , said feed device being provided with control members that detect each fed seed and intermittently place at least one compound at an approximate predetermined distance from the specific placement site of each seed, wherein said control member is arranged to control the mouth of at least one transportation tube for said fertiliser and/or said at least one chemical compound so that said mouth is positioned relative to placement of the seeds in the soil and is moved such that the speed of said mouth decreases relative to the soil.
12. The device according to claim 11 , wherein said at least one transport tube can be restored automatically to the starting position by coiling to achieve a recoiling action or by means of a spring.
13. The device according to claim 12 , wherein said fertiliser and/or said at least one chemical compound is liquid.
14. The device according to claim 12 , wherein said fertiliser and/or said at least one chemical compound is dry, in the form of granulate and/or powder.
15. The device according to claim 11 , wherein said fertiliser and/or said at least one chemical compound is liquid.
16. The device according to claim 11 , wherein said fertiliser and/or said at least one chemical compound is dry, preferably in the form of granulate and/or powder.
17. The device according to claim 16 , further comprising a feeding entity, which is adapted to simultaneously and continually lay out an additional chemical compound, preferably in the form of a string or band, at a predetermined distance from the placement site of each seed.
18. The device according to claim 17 , further comprising a feeding entity, which is adapted to simultaneously and continually lay an additional chemical compound, in the form of a string or band, at a predetermined distance from the specific placement site of each seed.
19. The device according to claim 16 , wherein said control member comprises a detection member, including a photocell or similar, that senses the position of the seeds in a transport tube, and a valve is arranged on each transport tube for said fertiliser and or said at least one chemical compound, the valve is regulated by said detection member and is adapted to feed said fertiliser and/or said at least one chemical compound to at least one specific placement site relative to the specific placement site of the seeds.
20. The device according to claim 19 , further comprising a feeding entity, which is adapted to simultaneously and continually lay an additional chemical compound, in the form of a string or band, at a predetermined distance from the specific placement site of each seed.
