Orchard mower capable of automatically completing mowing operation and method

Abstract

The invention discloses an orchard mower capable of automatically completing the mowing operation. The orchard mower comprises a frame, a main cutter head, a driving control device, a Beidou positioning antenna, a Beidou inertial navigation integrated navigation module and an automatic operation control device and is characterized in that two amplitude-variable cutter heads are arranged at the front end of the frame, a laser scanner and a video monitoring device are arranged at the front end of the frame, and a barrier ahead is detected and identified through the laser scanner. The invention further discloses a mowing method. The mowing method comprises the following steps of a) carrying out path learning; b) carrying out path planning; and c) carrying out automatic mowing operation. According to the orchard mower, the mowing width can be adaptively adjusted according to the line spacing, when positioning is not accurate, navigation is carried out by using the laser scanner, and therefore the problem that the driving path deviation is large due to the fact that Beidou positioning is simply adopted can be solved, the automatic mowing work of the mower is realized, manpower and material resources are saved, the occurrence of accidents caused due to the fact that a cutterhead touches the ground can be effectively avoided, the beneficial effects are remarkable, and the mower is suitable for popularization.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an orchard lawnmower and its method, more specifically, to an orchard lawnmower and its method which can automatically complete the mowing operation. Background technique [0002] Orchards play a very important role in my country's agricultural production. Planting fruit trees can not only increase economic income, but also increase the green coverage area and adjust the climate, which has good economic and social benefits. Along with the planting of fruit trees, various grasses will inevitably grow under the fruit trees. In traditional agriculture, it is generally believed that weeds will compete with fruit trees for nutrients and water, hindering the growth of fruit trees. However, studies have shown that grass mulching in orchards can improve the ecological conditions of orchards, increase soil organic matter content and physical and chemical properties, and have the functions of water storage and moisturizing, fer...
