Product Description:
Working Principle of Sweet Potato Double-ridge Single-row Ridger
1. Power Transmission & Mechanical Movement
Driven by a 22-37kW tractor, the traction-type ridger converts engine power into forward motion via a drawbar. The hydraulic lift system adjusts the depth of adjustable curved plows, ensuring consistent ridging height (250-350mm) by controlling oil cylinder extension-critical for adapting to varying soil textures.
2. Soil Preparation Mechanism
Preceding the plows, a rotary tiller with spiral blades rotates at 300-400rpm to break up clods and loosen soil. This pre-treatment creates a fine tilth, reducing resistance for ridge formation and preventing compacted layers that hinder sweet potato root expansion.
3. Ridge Formation Process
- Parallel Ridge Construction:Two curved plows, set 800mm apart, deepen soil at a 45° angle. The concave plow surfaces lift and invert soil, piling it into two parallel ridges. The 300mm single-row spacing between ridges is maintained by precision alignment of plow frames, optimizing vine growth space.
- Surface Smoothing:As the machine advances at 3-5km/h, the tiller's spiral blades follow the plows to refine ridge surfaces, ensuring they are free of clumps and have a 15° slope for drainage.
4. Hydraulic Depth Control System
A feedback mechanism in the hydraulic lift system monitors soil resistance and automatically adjusts plow depth. For example, in clayey soils, the system raises plows slightly to prevent excessive load, while in loamy soils, it deepens ridging to 350mm for better root aeration.
5. Operational Efficiency Logic
The ridger processes 0.3-0.5 hectares/hour by synchronizing three functions: soil tilling, ridge shaping, and surface finishing. This integration reduces pass times by 60% compared to manual ridging, with the hydraulic system ensuring energy consumption remains within 1.2kW/h/ha.
