JUSTIFICATION OF THE BUCKET VOLUME OF THE DOSING DRUM AND ITS EFFECT ON OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY
Keywords:
Dosing drum, bucket volume, cotton seeds, geometric parameters, productivity, coefficient of variation, feeding uniformity.Abstract
The article examines the determination of the volume of the blade-type buckets of a dosing drum and analyzes its influence on the cotton seed feeding process. Based on geometric parameters, the bucket volume is calculated, and design solutions ensuring uniform seed feeding under operating conditions are substantiated. The influence of blade height in the range of 17–26 mm was experimentally studied, and it was found that at a value of 23 mm the optimal productivity and feeding uniformity are achieved.
