Intelligent robot for harvesting garlic sprouts and working method thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to an intelligent robot for harvesting garlic sprouts and a working method thereof, and belongs to the field of agricultural intelligent equipment. The robot comprises one or more harvesting devices, a moving platform, a control system and a power system; the harvesting devices are located at the front end of the moving platform, and each harvesting device comprises a three-dimensional sliding table, a clamping and tying assembly, an identifying and positioning assembly, a feeding assembly and a garlic sprout container; the three-dimensional sliding table, the clamping and tying assembly, the identifying and positioning assembly, the feeding assembly, the moving platform and the power system are all connected with the control system. The intelligent robot for harvesting the garlic sprouts has the advantages that artificial intelligence and mechanical design are combined skillfully, the operation process of manual garlic sprout harvesting is simulated, and the high-speed identification and positioning of garlic plants and accurate and fast harvesting of garlic sprouts are achieved through plant identifying, plant clamping, plant smoothing, garlic sprout tying,garlic sprout lifting, garlic sprout feeding, walking and other steps; the robot is adopted for harvesting the garlic sprouts, the harvesting amount is quantifiable, the harvesting progress is predictable, and the harvesting quality can be ensured.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an intelligent robot for harvesting garlic sprouts and a working method thereof, belonging to the technical field of agricultural intelligent equipment. Background technique [0002] Garlic sprouts are flower stems extracted from garlic plants. As a common vegetable, garlic sprouts are one of the main products of the garlic industry. Harvesting garlic sprouts is an essential operation link in garlic production. It has strong seasonality and the harvest time is short and concentrated. For a long time, the majority of garlic farmers have mainly relied on manual methods or simple tools to extract garlic sprouts. The operation efficiency is low, the labor intensity is high, the production cost is high, and the harvest quality is uneven and it is difficult to guarantee. The yield and quality of garlic sprouts and garlic heads are severely restricted. [0003] In response to the above problems, relevant domestic personnel have carri...

Problems solved by technology

Chinese patent application CN102057810A discloses an automatic garlic harvester, which is composed of a frame, a bolting part, a rounded rectangular guide rail, a cutting part, a storage box, a scraping integration part, a power device and a plurality of transmission units, which are pushed forward At the same time, the cutting part cuts the garlic skin covering the garlic sprouts, and the lower scraping integrated part squeezes the bottom end of the garlic sprouts, and the bolting part on the top then extracts the garlic sprouts and sends them to the storage box. This invention is easy to cause the garlic plants to pick Later lodging affects the later growth of garlic heads

[0004] Chinese patent application CN106941868A discloses a garlic moss harvester, which cuts the garlic stem and then removes the garlic skin, without considering the continued growth of the garlic head; Chinese patent application CN103609251A discloses a garlic moss harvester, which is pulled by a tractor and transported by clamping The mechanism holds the garlic moss, which may easily cause the garlic stalk to break or the whole plant to be pulled out. In addition, tractors running in the field have specific requirements for garlic planting specifications and border width, otherwise it is easy to crush the garlic sprouts; Chinese patent application CN107455077A discloses a garlic sprout harvesting method. machine, there are problems of repeated needle pricking and multiple cutting of garlic stalks, which can easily lead to garlic stalks being broken and affecting growth; Chinese patent application CN104663121B discloses a mechanical device for automatic harvesting of garlic sprouts. The harvesting operation is realized by the methods of lifting garlic sprouts, cutting garlic sprouts longitudinally, and cutting garlic sprouts horizontally, but neither mentions nor realizes the mobile carrier platform of the device, nor does it mention or realize the identification and positioning method of individual garlic plants, so the The plan doesn't make sense

In short, there are still no mature schemes and practical devices for harvesting garlic sprouts in China.
