However, due to the shortcomings in structural design, when the existing weeding machines are weeding between plants, their operating parts not only remove the weeds between plants, but also cause irregular mechanical scratches and damage to the seedlings, and even dig their roots out of the soil, causing the death of the seedlings. The seedling injury rate is relatively high, and the promotion and application of mechanical weeding machines are limited. Summary of the invention

An automatic weeding mechanism between crop plants, wherein a sun gear 17 is fixedly mounted on a positioned power input shaft 5, a friction ring 9 is rotatably mounted on the upper outer portion of the sun gear 17, a driving shaft 11 is rotatably mounted on the friction ring 9, a planetary gear 16 and a bevel gear A12 are respectively fixedly mounted on the upper side and lower end of the driving shaft 11, a hanging bracket 15 is relatively rotatably mounted on the middle portion of the driving shaft 11, an intermediate shaft 14 and a driven shaft 19 are rotatably inserted on the middle portion and the end portion of the hanging bracket 15, a bevel gear B13 and a bevel gear C22 are respectively fixedly mounted on the inner and outer ends of the intermediate shaft 14, a bevel gear D20 and a cutter disc 18 are respectively fixedly mounted on the upper and lower ends of the driven shaft 19, a weeding blade 21 is fixedly mounted on the cutter disc 18, the planetary gear 16 and the bevel gear A12 are respectively fixedly mounted on the upper side and lower end of the driving shaft 11, a hanging bracket 15 is relatively rotatably mounted on the middle portion of the driving shaft 11, an intermediate shaft 14 and a driven shaft 19 are respectively rotatably inserted on the middle portion and the end portion of the hanging bracket 15, a bevel gear B13 and a bevel gear C22 are respectively fixedly mounted on the inner and outer ends of the intermediate shaft 14, a bevel gear D20 and a cutter disc 18 are respectively fixedly mounted on the upper and lower ends of the driven shaft 19, a weeding blade 21 is fixedly mounted on the cutter disc 18, the planetary gear 16 meshes with the sun gear 17, the bevel gear A12 meshes with the bevel gear B13, and the bevel gear C22 meshes with the bevel gear D20; the inner gear ring 10 meshing with the planetary gear 16 is mounted on the outside of the planetary gear 16; the stepper motor 6 is fixedly arranged at the upper part of the friction ring 9 and the inner gear ring 10, the connecting plate 7 is fixedly mounted on the motor shaft of the stepper motor 6, and the Π-shaped friction frame 8 is fixedly mounted on the lower end of the connecting plate 7, and the inner and outer lower end surfaces of the Π-shaped friction frame 8 are respectively pressed and contacted or disengaged with the upper ends of the friction ring 9 and the inner gear ring 10; the cover 1 is fixedly covered above the sun gear 17, the friction ring 9 and the inner gear ring 10, and the ultrasonic sensor 2 is installed on the outside of the cover 1; the wire 3 connects the automatic controller 4 with the ultrasonic sensor 2 and the stepper motor 6 respectively. A protective cover 23 is fixedly mounted on the end of the hanging frame 15, and the protective cover 23 is located outside the weeding knife 21 as a whole.
[0013] When used for weeding between rows, the rotating power input shaft 5 drives the sun gear 17 to rotate. When the inner lower end of the Π-shaped friction frame 8 is in downward pressure contact with the friction ring 9, the friction ring 9 is locked. At this time, the outer lower end of the Π-shaped friction frame 8 is out of downward pressure contact with the inner gear ring 10. Driven by the sun gear 17, the planetary gear 16 rotates, and drives the weeding knife 21 to rotate through the driving shaft 11, bevel gear A12, bevel gear B13, intermediate shaft 14, bevel gear C22, bevel gear D20, driven shaft 19, and knife disc 18 in sequence. When the ultrasonic sensor 2 detects the upright seedlings, the wire 3 transmits the electrical signal The power is input to the automatic controller 4, the stepper motor 6 is started, and the Π-shaped friction frame 8 is driven to rotate through the connecting plate 7. While the Π-shaped friction frame 8 is disengaged from the friction ring 9, the Π-shaped friction frame 8 is in contact with the inner gear ring 10 and locked. The planetary gear 16 revolves around the sun gear 17 while rotating. The weeding knife 21 is driven to rotate around the axis of the power input shaft 5 through the driving shaft 11, the hanging frame 15, and the knife disc 18 to avoid touching the seedlings and complete the weeding operation between the plants. Then the stepper motor 6 reverses, and the Π-shaped friction frame 8 returns to the initial position, and the process is repeated. The protective ring 23 can reduce and avoid the damage of the weeding knife 21 to the seedlings.
