摘要： To address the problems of low crushing efficiency and uneven distribution in traditional straw crushing and returning machines for cotton stalk return operations in Xinjiang, a vertical straw crushing and returning machine with large and small dual-blade discs was designed, adapted to Xinjiang's cotton planting model. The machine employs a differentiated configuration of large and small blade discs corresponding to four and two rows of cotton stalks, respectively, effectively reducing tool workload while significantly improving operational efficiency. A simulation model of the crushing and returning machine was developed using the discrete element method (DEM), and a flexible cotton stalk model was established to systematically investigate the effects of machine forward speed, crushing blade rotational speed, and knife tip-to-ground clearance on operational performance. Single-factor simulation experiments were conducted using crushing qualification rate and broken stalk drop rate as evaluation indicators. Subsequently, a multi-factor orthogonal field experiment was designed with Design-Expert software (13.0.1.0, Stat-Ease Inc, Minneapolis, MN, USA). The optimal working parameters were determined to be machine forward speed of 3.5 m/s, crushing blade shaft speed of 1500 r/min, and blade tip ground clearance of 60 mm. Verification tests demonstrated that under these optimal parameters, the straw crushing qualification rate reached 95.9% with a broken stalk drop rate of 15.5%. The relative errors were less than 5% compared to theoretical optimization values, confirming the reliability of parameter optimization. This study provides valuable references for the design optimization and engineering application of straw return machinery.
