When searching the existing patents and papers of similar technologies, it is found that the
Chinese patent 1 "A Real-time
Monitoring System and Method for Farm Machinery's Plowing Depth" with the application number of 201310032560.0 discloses a system capable of real-time monitoring of the plowing depth of the
machine when it is working. It can
record the tillage depth in real time and give an audible and visual alarm when the tillage depth exceeds the set range. In this method, forward and reverse springs and angle measuring devices are installed on the main shaft of the ground wheel to make the ground wheel close to the ground. The angle change between the ground wheel frame and the plumb line caused by time can measure the tillage depth, but this system cannot realize the
automatic control of the tillage depth and the real-time measurement of the working area
Patent 2 (Application No. 201420364537.1) discloses "Subsoiling
Soil Preparation Machine with
Tillage Depth Liquid Level
Display Device". When the pull-down rod, lift rod and lift arm of the rear-mounted three-point suspension are linked up and down due to different depths, the oil in the
hydraulic cylinder is subject to different external pressures and flows to the liquid level indicator in the cab through the hydraulic oil
pipe. Through the change of the scale of the liquid level indicator, the lifting situation of the
agricultural machinery and the tillage depth during the mechanical tillage can be quickly known, but the device only indirectly reflects the tillage depth through the change of the indication value of the liquid level gauge, and the accuracy is poor. When working on inconsistent plots, it is difficult to ensure accurate measurement and consistency of the depth of tillage, and the device cannot realize automatic measurement and control of the depth of tillage; The characteristics of the system are: a rotation angle measuring device is installed on the tillage depth adjustment arm, the tillage depth adjustment
handle is connected with the motor output shaft, and the position of the tillage depth adjustment
handle is adjusted through the change of the length of the motor output shaft, thereby adjusting the tillage depth. And use the feedback value of the rotation angle measuring device to adjust the output length of the
motor shaft, so as to realize the adjustment of the plowing depth, but this system cannot realize the real-time measurement of the working area and the measurement and control of the working load, nor can it realize the sudden rock formation in the ground. Monitoring and alarming of blocks and tree roots
Paper 1 (Journal of
Agricultural Machinery, 2013, 31(3)) discloses a "Design and Experiment of Ultrasonic
Agricultural Machinery Operation Depth
Measurement Device". Combined with the sound velocity of ultrasonic
waves in the medium to calculate the operating depth, the measurement of the depth of plowing operations is realized. However, the reflection of the ultrasonic
waves emitted by the
ultrasonic sensor used in the device will cause the measurement reflection points at the same point to be different due to the unevenness of the reflection interface. One point, so the
delay is also different, and the measurement is not accurate; in addition, the device cannot realize real-time measurement of the operating area, measurement and control of the operating load, and monitoring and alarming of sudden stones and tree roots in the ground.
Paper 2 (
Agricultural Mechanization Research, 2013, 5) discloses a "Design of Rotary
Tiller Loosening Depth Detection
System", which uses ultrasonic sensors to detect tillage depth, but cannot realize the adjustment of tillage depth
Paper 3 (Journal of
Agricultural Machinery, 2013, 31(3)) discloses a "Design and Test of
Tractor Hydraulic Suspension Electro-
hydraulic Control System for
Tillage Depth", which starts from the principle of
tractor hydraulic suspension electro-
hydraulic control system for tillage depth, researches An electro-
hydraulic control system for plowing depth with electro-hydraulic
proportional valve as the main control valve is developed. The
strain gauge force sensor detects the plowing resistance, takes the plowing depth and plowing resistance as the two-way feedback
signal of the controller, and controls the flow and direction of the hydraulic oil in and out of the oil cylinder through the inherent electro-hydraulic
proportional valve of the electronically controlled hydraulic suspension system to control the suspension. The lifting of the lifting mechanism realizes the
automatic control of the plowing depth. The disadvantages are: the real-time measurement of the working area cannot be realized, the real-time
monitoring data of the plowing depth and plowing resistance cannot be recorded and stored, and there is no ability to detect sudden rocks in the ground. , Root monitoring and alarm function
