Abstract

The invention discloses a branch pruning and crushing robot and a method thereof, comprising a mechanical arm, a pruning end effector installed at the front end of the mechanical arm, a control unit, and a camera; the actions of the pruning end effector, the camera and other components are controlled by the control unit; the mechanical arm Including motor, finger driving device, forked finger, saw blade, saw blade shaft, saw blade shaft driving device; the motor drives the finger driving device and saw blade shaft driving device; the saw blade is installed on the outer periphery of the saw blade shaft, and the saw blade shaft Connect the blade shaft drive; the forked fingers connect to the finger drive. The invention integrates the selective pruning and crushing of the branches, reduces the branch handling link for the branch crushing, and can perform real-time crushing. In addition, the crushed branches and leaves are used as organic fertilizers and returned to the soil, which reduces production costs, reduces the use of chemically synthesized fertilizers by crops, and promotes the development of the organic fruit industry.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of mechanized pruning of fruit tree branches, in particular to a branch pruning and crushing robot and method. Background technique [0002] The pruning of fruit tree branches is of great significance to the quality of fruit tree growth and fruit. In recent years, the research on automatic pruning of horticultural plants has received widespread attention, but it is mainly aimed at the research on automatic pruning of horticultural plants. The pruning requirements of fruit tree branches are different from those of garden plants. It is necessary to selectively prune the branches of the tree body, while garden plants generally prune the whole tree body. At present, there are few studies on automatic pruning of fruit trees, and it is urgent to strengthen the intelligent research on pruning and crushing of fruit tree branches. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the present invention is to overc...
