The study aims to substantiate the design and parameters of the comb-forming device with elastic rods. The basic principles and methods of classical mechanics, mathematical analysis and statistics were used in this study. The authors proposed a comb-forming machine with elastic rods for sowing cotton on the combs. The main parameters of the comb-forming machine with elastic rods and the amount of vertical load on the working body are justified by experimental studies. It is established that with a diameter of 3 mm elastic rod, the number of elastic rods 64 pieces, a radius of 0.3 m disks and a width of 0.60 m device capture provides high-quality destruction of soil lumps and the formation of ridges of the required shape.
A design diagram of comb formation roller in resilient stems is given. Comb-forming roller consists of support and small discs, as well as elastic rods. Elastic rods are installed along the perimeter of the diameter of the disks through their holes. Analytical dependences and mathematical models are obtained for determining the distance between disks, the diameter of disks, the diameter, length and number of elastic rods. One-factor experiments were carried out to substantiate the diameter of the disks and the number of rods. It was found that with the length of the elastic rods of the comb-forming roller 65-75 cm, the diameters of large, medium and small discs, respectively, at least 600mm, 550 mm and 200 mm, the angle of sharpening of the discs within 55-650, the issue of stems within 64 - 69 trimming and diameter bars 3 mm, intensive defeat of chunk and high- quality creation of ridges is ensured.
