FIELD OF INVENTION
The present invention relates to a system for dispensing materials. More particularly, the present invention relates a dispensing system for dispensing materials in an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) in agriculture industry, which effectively sprinkles the materials onto a designated land area.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), commonly referred as “Drone”, these types of vehicles are capable to travel Pilate, and achieve the target through user commands. The UAV secured with an dispensing system is employed to spray pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, plant growth regulators, defoliation agents, seeds, and fertilizers into the field.
Leading technologies include precision positioning, navigation, controls, imaging, communications, sensors, materials, batteries, circuits, and motors. Depending on the use of the UAV and the characteristics of the farming sector, various technologies (e.g., equipment development, nozzle controls, and big data) are required, hence it is much need to develop a dispensing system with UAV.
Some of the prior arts:
US10364029B2 discloses a Drone for agriculture for spraying liquid over field crop includes: a frame with a slender rigid beam in the middle and two base structures at the two ends, a rigid tube with an array of nozzles on elongated stems and the rigid tube is suspended below the beam structure with retractable wires, at least three propellers on motors with arms that are rotatably mounted to each of the two base structures of the frame, a power source, at least one distance detector for measuring height, an antenna for communication, an electronic control system to operate motors and sensors, a container for a liquid material and electronic valve to allow liquid in the container to be transferred and sprayed from the nozzles, and a remote controller. The drone is intended to spray liquid over a wide strip of the field with high efficiency, precision, and safety and reduced drift of sprays.
US20170015416A1 discloses an Agricultural Crop Analysis Drone proposes a method and system utilizing one or more agricultural drones in combination with agricultural equipment, e.g., an agricultural boom sprayer, to evaluate the crops being farmed, and to improve the real-time delivery and dispensing of liquid from the sprayer including monitoring and verifying that the liquid is being dispensed correctly and/or in accordance with a desired distribution pattern or level.
WO2014160589A1 discloses an Aerial farm robot system for crop dusting, planting, fertilizing and other field jobs states that automated farming uses unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that are equipped with detachable implements and reservoirs and that we call "aerial farm robots." Automated farming uses high-precision GPS and other precision positioning and vision technology to perform crop dusting, planting, fertilizing and other field related farming or husbandry tasks autonomously and precisely. The subsystems for the control, refill, recharge and communication subsystems of the aerial farm robots are part of the overall automated farming system and can autonomously handle most of the husbandry tasks on a farm.

WORKING EXAMPLE:
The dispenser system (100) consists of an extruder (101) attached to a drone that is carrying a tank (104) of seeds or fertilizer. A delivery buffer tank (104) is attached to the other end of the extruder (101). Between the extruder (101) and the delivery buffer tank (104), there is a second motor (107) with an actuator (109) and a fertilizers and seeds level sensor (103).
Thereby the present invention works in a rack and pinion mechanism which is connected to the second motor (107), and one end of the rack is used to control the extruder's (101) outlet.
When the second motor is turned on, its rotational motion drives the gears, which move the rack and allow the outlet to open and close. The level monitoring sensor (103) gives the operator real-time feedback by tracking the flow of seeds and fertilizer. Thereby enables the operator to secure a constant material flow during the distribution procedure. The material can only flow into designated cavities due to the flow controller (105) located within the tank (104).
This guarantees that any extra seeds and fertilizer are gathered and stored in the tank for later use. The material flows through the flow controller (105) and onto a vane plate (106), which is attached to a second motor (107) that is positioned beneath the plate, to help spread the material evenly.
Effective material dispersion is encouraged by the motor's rotation of the vane plate (106). A transmitter is used to operate the vane plate (106) by motor (102) and the second motor (107). This makes it possible for the operator to remotely manage the system's operations, securing accurate fertilizer and seed delivery and dispersion in accordance with requirements. For safety and protection, a cowling (108) covers the vane plate motor (107), shielding it from external elements during operation.
A drone used for reforestation is intended to plant tree seeds in deforested regions to help them regrow. It has a seed hopper and a system that delivers seeds at predetermined intervals. When delivering seeds over the intended area, the drone may swiftly cover enormous regions.
ADVANTAGES OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
1. The present invention provides a dispensing system for an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), which reduces the laboring costs.
2. The present invention provides a dispensing system, which allows precise and optimized material distribution for enhanced agricultural production.
To maximize crop growth and productivity, farmers employ drones for precision agriculture. It is possible for it to be fitted with a device that drops seeds precisely. In order to ensure ideal spacing and minimize seed waste, the drone must fly over agricultural areas to equally scatter seeds. By dispersing native plant seeds, an ecological restoration drone restores habitats. Eventhough the existing drones have their own advantages these dispensing system are essential in specific regions where there have been landslides, wildfires, or other natural catastrophes.
It will be apparent to a person skilled in the art that the above description is for illustrative purposes only and should not be considered as limiting. Various modifications, additions, alterations, and improvements without deviating from the spirit and the scope of the invention may be made by a person skilled in the art.
