A fruit and vegetable robot picking transportation pipeline

Abstract

The invention discloses a picking and conveying pipeline for garden stuff robots. The pipeline comprises a mobile base, a picking robot installed on the base, a picking basket installed on the base, a mechanical arm installed on the picking robot and a picker installed on the front end of the mechanical arm, wherein a picking and conveying pipeline is installed between the picking basket and the picker; the picking and conveying pipeline further comprises an inlet pipe arranged on the front end, an outlet pipe mounted on the rear end, a plurality of elastic and retractable corrugated pipes installed between the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe, and buffering pipes installed between every two adjacent corrugated pipes. Since the picking and conveying pipeline, which contains the elastic corrugated pipes, is arranged between the picking basket and the picker of the picking robot, the picked fruits fall into the material feeding inlet of the inlet pipe and pass through the corrugated pipes to fall into the picking basket; during retraction of the mechanical arm, the retractable corrugated pipes can synchronously retract under the action of the elastic force, so that the picking efficiency of the picking robot can be greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a vegetable picking device, in particular to a fruit and vegetable picking transportation pipeline for a robot. Background technique [0002] Traditionally, the picking of mature fruits and vegetables mainly relies on human manual picking, which consumes a lot of labor and wastes a lot of manpower and material resources; however, with the rapid development of science and technology, in order to make fruit and vegetable picking more efficient and save Labor force, there are various picking machine devices in the prior art, and the existing mechanical picking devices usually use manipulators, on which scissors for picking are installed, and the fruit is picked by shape recognition or color recognition; but the existing Picking machines usually have a relatively big disadvantage, that is, after the picking manipulator picks the fruit, it usually operates the manipulator and puts it back into the picking box, and then picks it agai...

[0002] Traditionally, the picking of mature fruits and vegetables mainly relies on human manual picking, which consumes a lot of labor and wastes a lot of manpower and material resources; with the rapid development of science and technology, in order to make fruit and vegetable picking more efficient and save Labor force, there are various picking machine devices in the prior art, and the existing mechanical picking devices usually use manipulators, on which scissors for picking are installed, and the fruit is picked by shape recognition or color recognition; but the existing Picking machines usually have a relatively big disadvantage, that is, after the picking manipulator picks the fruit, it usually puts the manipulator back into the picking frame by operating the manipulator, and then picks again. The action of picking not only wastes working time, but also increases the difficulty in the operation process, programming process and automatic control of the overall device; Many problems cannot be solved. One is that it cannot move synchronously with the picker, and when the picker is retracted, the pipe will bend, so that the picked fruit cannot be placed in the picking frame. The other is the height difference of the fruit when picking Larger, it is easy to smash the fruit when it falls into the box
