UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE FOR SPRAYING PESTICIDES ON ROW CROPS Russian patent published in 2023 - IPC B64U101/45 B64U10/10 B64U10/20 B64D1/18 A01M7/00 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) used in agriculture for treating trees, shrubs and other plants with pesticides. The UAV contains a body, brackets, engines, propellers, a battery, a chassis, an automatic piloting control system, a payload module including a unit for placing and supplying working fluids, a unit for regulating and distributing working fluid flows, a sectional rod made in the form of horizontal and vertical sections with spray modules. The UAV contains environmental sensors, flight altitude measurements and plant damage detection sensors. A spray module with a vertical arc-shaped section in the form of an ellipse is mounted at the ends of each of the vertical sections. The major axis of the ellipse is parallel to the soil surface, and the minor axis coincides with the symmetry axis of the vertical section. The hydraulic manifold of the sprayers is connected by a communication line to the electromagnetic shut-off valves of the working fluid flow distribution unit.

EFFECT: increase in productivity and quality of pesticide treatment of row crops, a reduction in pesticide consumption and environmental pollution, and an increase in agricultural yields.
