Double drone cooperation picking robot for coconuts

Abstract

The invention relates to a double drone cooperation picking robot for coconuts, and belongs to the technical field of fruit picking equipment. The robot aims to install a mini-type laser cutter and barbed dart emitters on each drone. According to the robot provided by the invention, each drone brings one corresponding mini-type laser cutter and corresponding barbed dart emitters to an area near amature coconut, each barbed dart emitter emits one barbed dart connected with the drone to the coconut, after the barbed dart is inserted into a coconut shell, one corresponding mini-type laser cuttercuts a coconut fruit pedicel locked by the barbed dart by a laser, and the coconut separated from a coconut tree is suspended below one corresponding drone by one corresponding barbed dart; and in order to ensure realization of functions of the robot, each drone is equipped with one camera used for locking the mature coconut, a wireless communication device used for information exchange and a single-chip microcomputer used for controlling work of the robot, the robot adopts cooperation of double drones, so that the robot can continuously pick up coconuts, ensure quality of the coconuts whilereducing workloads, and is superior to a current coconut picking device and technology.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a dual-UAV cooperative coconut picking robot, which belongs to the technical field of fruit picking equipment. Background technique [0002] At present, due to the particularity of coconut trees and coconuts, coconuts cannot be harvested by large-scale machinery. For a long time, pickers basically use tree-climbing tools to climb coconut trees to complete coconut picking. With the increasing demand and planting of coconuts, manual picking will not be able to adapt to the development of the entire coconut industry. It goes without saying that the efficiency of manual picking is very low, and it consumes a huge amount of manpower. To a certain extent, the unchangeable disadvantages of manual picking will also inhibit the development of the coconut industry. On the other hand, there are still huge potential safety hazards in the process of manual coconut picking. The height of the coconut tree is between 15m-30m, and the coconut ...

With the increasing demand and planting of coconuts, manual picking will not be able to adapt to the development of the entire coconut industry

It goes without saying that the efficiency of manual picking is very low, and it consumes a huge amount of manpower. To a certain extent, the unchangeable disadvantages of manual picking will also inhibit the development of the coconut industry.

On the other hand, there are still huge potential safety hazards in the process of manual coconut picking. The height of the coconut tree is between 15m-30m, and the coconut grows close to the crown of the tree, so the pickers need to climb to a very high position to When picking coconuts, there will eventually be a thinning of white and dense coconuts. If there is a problem with the protection measures of the pickers or the climbing equipment, the pickers are likely to fall from the tree
