Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of agriculture, and in particular relates to an opposed-probe type no-tillage sowing and stubble-avoiding device and method. Background Art
[0002] No-till seeding refers to applying fertilizer and seeds directly to the stubble after harvest, without or with minimal tillage. It is a key technology in conservation tillage, effectively conserving water and entropy, improving soil physical and chemical properties, and enhancing soil drought resistance and fertility. Due to the complex and resilient root systems of crops, no-till seeding on stubble land can easily cause the furrow opener to clog, potentially causing the planter to shut down, severely impacting seeding quality.
[0003] Precision row-by-row seeding is crucial for improving the quality of no-till seeding in stubble fields. Currently, the main methods for achieving precise row-by-row stubble detection are vision, mechanical feelers, and satellite navigation. Visual detection of stubble is easily affected by field conditions such as lighting. Mechanical feelers provide poor stability in row spacing. Using satellite navigation for stubble-avoidance seeding requires navigation for seeding the preceding crop, which is costly and has significant limitations. Therefore, a highly stable, low-cost active stubble-avoidance device is urgently needed to assist no-till seeders in performing active stubble-avoidance seeding. Summary of the Invention

The right front ultrasonic radar 1-1-1 detects the parameter L1 and transmits it to the controller 1-3; the right middle ultrasonic radar 1-1-2 detects the parameter L2 and transmits it to the controller 1-3; the right rear ultrasonic radar 1-1-3 detects the parameter L3 and transmits it to the controller 1-3; the left rear ultrasonic radar 1-1-6 detects the parameter L4 and transmits it to the controller 1-3; the left middle ultrasonic radar 1-1-7 detects the parameter L5 and transmits it to the controller 1-3; the left front ultrasonic radar 1-1-8 detects the parameter L6 and transmits it to the controller 1-3.
[0104] S3. The controller 1-3 judges whether the electric push rod 1-5 works through the following steps.
[0105] S3.1. Calculate the perpendicular distance P between the center line horizontal plane projection CL of the advancing speed direction of the seeding unit 2 and the center point of the crop stubble 4 when the seeding unit 2 is working normally.
[0106]
[0107] In Formula 1, P is the perpendicular distance between the center line horizontal plane projection CL of the advancing speed direction of the seeding unit 2 and the center point of the crop stubble 4 when the seeding unit 2 is working normally, with the unit of m; L1 is the distance from the right front ultrasonic radar 1-1-1 to the crop stubble 4, with the unit of m; L2 is the distance from the right middle ultrasonic radar 1-1-2 to the crop stubble 4, with the unit of m; L3 is the distance from the right rear ultrasonic radar 1-1-3 to the crop stubble 4, with the unit of m; L4 is the distance from the left rear ultrasonic radar 1-1-6 to the crop stubble 4, with the unit of m; L5 is the distance from the left middle ultrasonic radar 1-1-7 to the crop stubble 4, with the unit of m; L6 is the distance from the left front ultrasonic radar 1-1-8 to the crop stubble 4, with the unit of m.
[0108] S3.2. If T1 < |P| < T, the electric push rod 1-5 does not work.
[0109] T1 < |P| < T2 indicates that when the controller 1-3 determines that the seeding unit 2 is working normally, the vertical distance between the horizontal plane projection CL of the center line of the forward speed direction of the seeding unit 2 and the center point of the crop stubble 4 is within a reasonable range. The working components of the seeding unit 2 are not likely to touch the crop stubble 4 and can work properly.
[0110] S3.3. If |P| < T1 and P ≥ 0, the controller 1-3 controls the electric push rod 1-5 to extend, and the seeding unit 2 moves horizontally to the right.
[0111] |P| < T1 indicates that when the controller 1-3 determines that the seeding unit 2 is working normally, the vertical distance between the horizontal plane projection CL of the center line of the forward speed direction of the seeding unit 2 and the center point of the crop stubble 4 is too close; P > 0 indicates that when the seeding unit 2 is working normally, the horizontal plane projection CL of the center line of the forward speed direction of the seeding unit 2 is on the right side of the center point of the crop stubble 4; P = 0 indicates that the center point of the crop stubble 4 is on the horizontal plane projection CL of the center line of the forward speed direction of the seeding unit 2 when the seeding unit 2 is working normally. At this time, the working components of the seeding unit 2 are likely to touch the crop stubble 4, affecting the operation effect of the working components of the seeding unit 2. The controller 1-3 controls the electric push rod 1-5 to extend, and the seeding unit 2 moves horizontally to the right, increasing the distance between the horizontal plane projection CL of the center line of the forward speed direction of the seeding unit 2 and the center point of the crop stubble 4 when the seeding unit 2 is working normally, so that the working components of the seeding unit 2 are not likely to touch the crop stubble 4 and can work properly.
[0112] S3.4. If |P| < T1 and P < 0, the controller 1-3 controls the electric push rod 1-5 to contract, and the seeding unit 2 moves horizontally to the left.
[0113] |P| < T1 indicates that when the controller 1-3 determines that the seeding unit 2 is working normally, the vertical distance between the horizontal plane projection CL of the center line of the forward speed direction of the seeding unit 2 and the center point of the crop stubble 4 is too close; P < 0 indicates that when the seeding unit 2 is working normally, the horizontal plane projection CL of the center line of the forward speed direction of the seeding unit 2 is on the left side of the center point of the crop stubble 4. At this time, the working components of the seeding unit 2 are likely to touch the crop stubble 4, affecting the operation effect of the working components of the seeding unit 2. The controller 1-3 controls the electric push rod 1-5 to contract, and the seeding unit 2 moves horizontally to the left, increasing the distance between the horizontal plane projection CL of the center line of the forward speed direction of the seeding unit 2 and the center point of the crop stubble 4 when the seeding unit 2 is working normally, so that the working components of the seeding unit 2 are not likely to touch the crop stubble 4 and can work properly.
[0114] S3.5. If |P| > T2 and P > 0, the controller 1-3 controls the electric push rod 1-5 to contract, and the seeding unit 2 moves horizontally to the left.
[0115] If |P| > T2 and P > 0, controller 1-3 determines that the vertical distance between left probe 1-1-5 and the center of crop stubble 4 is too close when sowing unit 2 is operating. This indicates that the horizontal projection CL of the centerline of sowing unit 2 in the direction of its forward speed is to the right of the center of crop stubble 4, and left probe 1-1-5 is likely to hit the crop stubble 4 and cause damage. At this point, controller 1-3 controls electric push rod 1-5 to retract, causing sowing unit 2 to move laterally to the left, increasing the distance between left probe 1-1-5 and crop stubble 4.
[0116] S3.6. If |P|>T2, P<0, the controller 1-3 controls the electric push rod 1-5 to extend, and the sowing unit 2 moves horizontally to the right.
[0117] If |P|>T2 and P<0, controller 1-3 determines that the vertical distance between right probe 1-1-4 and the center of crop stubble 4 is too close when sowing unit 2 is operating. This indicates that the horizontal projection CL of the centerline of sowing unit 2 in the direction of its forward speed is to the left of the center of crop stubble 4, and right probe 1-1-4 is likely to hit the crop stubble 4 and cause damage. At this point, controller 1-3 controls electric push rod 1-5 to extend, causing sowing unit 2 to move horizontally to the right, increasing the distance between right probe 1-1-4 and crop stubble 4.
[0118] S4. The controller obtains the sowing coordinate position of the sowing unit 2 according to the movement of the electric push rods 1-5, generates the actual sowing route of the sowing unit 2, and predicts the growth position information of the sowing crops to provide data reference for the next harvest and sowing.
