Embodiment 2

[0038] This embodiment is basically the same as Embodiment 1, and the special features are as follows:

[0039]The laser sensor is a laser ranging sensor DLS-B(H) from DIMETIX AG, which can determine the boundaries of harvested wheat and unharvested wheat by scanning the wheat field.

[0040] The microprocessor is the ARM9 series microprocessor S3C2440A of Samsung, which receives the signals sent by each module, performs calculation and analysis, and sends control instructions to each module.

[0041] Described GPRS module is a commonly used GPRS module that carries on the described ARM9 series microprocessor S3C2440A, is directly connected to microprocessor interface by bus line, realizes wireless data transmission by this module and remote control center, is convenient to combine harvester Realize remote control.

[0042] The angle sensor adopts the REP absolute value encoder JSP3806 rotary encoder, which is used to measure the boundary information of the transmitted crops....

Embodiment 3

[0044] The structure and working principle of the laser navigation system of this unmanned combine harvester are as follows:

[0045] like figure 1 Shown, the wheat harvester 1 that has microprocessor 5 and automatic steering device 7 harvests wheat between wheat fields. The cutter 2 is installed on the wheat harvester 1, and the laser sensor 3 is installed on the right end of the cutter 2 through a bracket, so that it is as close as possible to the boundary of the wheat when harvesting, so that the central axis of the scanning light of the laser sensor 3 is on the boundary with the wheat. The direction of 8 is consistent, just can make microprocessor 5 have great advantage in the process of controlling the automatic steering of wheel, and can simplify geometric relationship. The rear wheels 4 of the combine harvester are used for driving.

[0046] The unmanned combine harvester 1 based on laser navigation technology is a common combine harvester, which travels in a wheat fi...
