The invention relates to a sprayer of the type comprising a turbine that generates an air current, a nozzle that channels the air current and an outlet of this current to the outside, carrying with it the product dosed by a series of nozzles arranged in the area of influence of the air current, the sprayer being special in that both the air outlet opening and the turbine can be configured and act in a coordinated manner to obtain the desired air flow for each type of crop and spray application, where the optimum air flow for each spray application and the configuration of the turbine and opening are determined by the actual sprayer by means of a processor and auxiliary means.
IMPROVED SPRAYER of the type comprising at least one turbine for generating air currents, a nozzle (1) through which said air current passes during the spraying operations, said nozzle comprising at least one opening (3) where, by the action of one or more deflectors (4) and (5), the air is channelled to the outside and a series of nozzles (2) arranged in the area of influence of the air current through which the product to be sprayed is incorporated into said current, characterised in that at least one of the turbines and one of the openings can be configured in a coordinated manner, and also comprises means for a coordinated determination of the configuration of the turbine and the opening that comprise:
IMPROVED SPRAYER according to the preceding claim, characterised in that the means for changing the turbine configuration comprise a drum with a peripheral circular channel (11) suitable for housing therein the eccentric shafts (10) of the vanes, in which the turbine actuator (12) and said drum are connected.
IMPROVED SPRAYER according to claim 10, characterised in that the vane position sensors are arranged in the turbine actuator (12).
IMPROVED SPRAYER according to claim 12, characterised in that the opening position sensors are arranged in the nozzle actuator (6).
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
