The purpose of the study is to substantiate the method and design scheme of a combined machine for preparing the soil and sowing melons. The authors propose a new method of soil preparation and sowing, as well as a machine for its implementation. The basic principles and methods of classical mechanics, mathematical analysis, and statistics were used in this study. The method of preparing the soil and planting gourds provides a combination of the following technological processes: the turnover of the layers of the upper layer of soil, the sowing area to the left and to the right, shallow tilling the soil of the field with the left and right sides of the sowing area, deep tillage seeding areas with simultaneous formation of irrigation furrows and the local application of fertilizers, soil preparation for sowing in line sowing and sowing seeds of melons. The machine consists of lister housings installed along the axis of symmetry of the unit, flat cutters, parallel-type deep-diggers, furrowers, coulters for fertilizing, and a sowing device. It was found that preparation of soil for sowing and planting of melons with a minimum expenditure of energy is provided by the width of Lusternik buildings 86 cm, the width of tillers and cultivators, respectively, 45 and 33 cm, the longitudinal distance between the body and the plane of 35 cm between the cultivators of 42.3 cm, and longitudinal spacing of the chisel cultivator and sowing device 110 cm.
The physical basis of the mixture formation is analyzed. The study aims to increase the intensity of the process of continuous mixing of feed in the mixer. The basic principles and methods of classical mechanics, mathematical analysis, and statistics were used in this study. The design of the mixer cover in the form of a three-sided box is justified, which eliminates additional resistance to the rotation of the screw due to the impact of the feed masses reflected from the cover. When using a lid in the form of a three-sided box, the mixing quality improves by 4-5% and reaches 93% or more at a capacity of 15 t/h. It is established that the optimal angle of inclination of the reflecting plane of the mixing chamber cover is 31-35° with a screw diameter of 400 mm, the height of the reflecting plane from the screw axis of 350 mm, and a rotation speed of 36.61 s-1. The following indicators of the mixer were determined: the productivity that ensures the mixing quality of more than 90% when mixing green mass and silage with mixed feed - 19 t/h, crushed feed root crops with mixed feed-23 t / h, the speed of the screw - 36.61 s-1.
