Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of intelligent agricultural machinery, and in particular relates to a high-performance regenerated rice harvester and method suitable for wide-narrow row planting modes. Background Art
[0002] Ratoon rice is a special rice cultivation model that offers many advantages, including saving labor, seeds, water, fertilizer, pesticides, and nursery fields. It is an important measure to increase the land multiple cropping index and ensure my country's food security. The harvest period of ratoon rice is divided into two seasons. When the first season of rice is harvested, the rice stump and root system in the lower third of the plant must be retained. After fertilization and cultivation, it is allowed to grow another season of rice. Ratoon rice has special agronomic requirements for planting, management, and harvesting. Currently, there is no standardized mechanized production model for ratoon rice worldwide. Traditional harvesters have poor adaptability to ratoon rice, low intelligence level and operation accuracy, and cause high damage to ratoon rice. Therefore, the economic benefits and promotion prospects of ratoon rice are severely restricted.
[0003] The existing technology has not yet developed a regenerated rice combine harvester suitable for the standardized planting mode of wide and narrow rows. The currently disclosed low-damage regenerated rice combine harvester patents include: a multi-layer segmented stubble-leaving cutter device and control method for first-season regenerated rice and a combine harvester for first-season regenerated rice ZL201910899203.1, which provides a multi-layer segmented stubble-leaving cutter device and control method for first-season regenerated rice and a combine harvester for first-season regenerated rice, including a cutting table, a segmented cutter and a stubble-leaving cutter, which can achieve the harvesting of ears with only a small amount of stems. Harvesting operations are carried out while ensuring the height of the rice pile and the length of the rice stems returned to the field; a regenerated rice harvesting header and a harvester equipped with the header ZL202210092168.4, which provides a regenerated rice harvesting header and a harvester equipped with the header, including a multi-layer adjustable disc cutter, a header and a spike cutter. The multi-layer adjustable disc cutter is used to cut the stems between the spike cutting height and the stubble height multiple times, thereby preventing excessively long stems from falling into the field and covering the dormant buds of regenerated rice, thereby providing a guarantee for the return of stems to the field and the smooth growth of rice in the regeneration season. It can be seen that the problems addressed by the current inventions mainly focus on the precise cutting of the regenerated rice spikes, the effective retention of dormant buds, and the crushing of long stems. It can play a role in increasing the yield of regenerated rice to a certain extent, but due to the lack of technological breakthroughs in reducing rolling losses, the pain point problem of reduced regenerated rice yield has not yet been solved in the above inventions. It can be seen that the current mechanized high-performance and low-damage harvesting technology for regenerated rice still has room for further improvement, and the economic benefits generated by planting regenerated rice have not yet been maximized.

[0022]

[0031]
[0032] Among them, a is the length of the field, b is the width of the field, c is the width of the track, B1 is the cutting width, and r is the turning radius.
[0033] Furthermore, when working on irregular fields, laser scanning is first used to image the field information, and then the characteristic endpoints of the field information are marked. Based on the characteristic endpoints, a relatively standard field is constructed and harvest path planning is performed. This is achieved by scanning the boundary endpoints of the field, taking four characteristic points, and constructing a rectangular field. Then, the corresponding rolling rates R1, R2, and R3 are calculated according to the three working paths. Since the rolling rate calculated by this method includes the area that has not been rolled, the proportional coefficient ξ is introduced. The calculation formula is as follows:
[0034]
[0035] The area of irregular fields is calculated using the integral method, the length and width a and b of standard fields are obtained by laser scanning, and the rolling rates of the three operation paths are ξR1, ξR2, and ξR3, respectively.
[0036] A control method for the high-performance regenerated rice harvester suitable for the wide-narrow row planting mode comprises the following steps:
[0037] The driver drives the harvester, and the harvesting platform harvests the regenerated rice ears and feeds the ears into the conveying trough; the symmetry axis of the harvesting platform coincides with the symmetry axis of the two harvester tracks, so that the harvesting range and the crushing range of the regenerated rice combine harvester are symmetrically distributed, so that the regenerated rice harvester matches the standardized planting pattern of wide and narrow rows: in straight-line operation, the two tracks run in the center of two adjacent wide rows, that is, the crushing range is within the wide row range; the harvesting platform covers the narrow rows on both sides of the two wide rows, that is, the harvesting range covers the narrow row range; the additional cutter controls the stubble height to retain the dormant buds under the regenerated rice stalks; the grain conveying device lifts the regenerated rice grains accumulated at the bottom of the threshing and cleaning device after threshing and conveys them to the grain box.
[0038] The above solution also includes the following steps:
[0039] The path planning system calculates the compaction rates of different operation paths in advance according to the shape of the field to be operated: the length and width a and b of the field are measured and input into the path planning system, and the path planning system calculates the compaction rates under different paths and marks them as R1, R2, and R3, so that the driver can choose the path with the lowest compaction rate to harvest crops; the path planning system calculates the grain tank filling amount and the remaining time available for the grain tank volume according to the grain weight signal detected by the piezoelectric sensor, and controls the early warning device to send an early warning signal when the remaining time available for the grain tank volume is less than the preset time, reminding the driver to plan the route according to the remaining time and unload the grain in time.

[0041] 1. The present invention can achieve high-performance and low-damage harvesting of the first-season rice of regenerated rice, increase the yield of regenerated rice, and improve the economic benefits of regenerated rice.
[0042] 2. The cutting platform used in the present invention is a lightweight and wide-width cutting platform, which can reduce the number of operating strokes of the regenerated rice combine harvester in the field, thereby reducing the crushing area of the crawler on the regenerated rice, reducing crushing losses, and increasing the yield of regenerated rice.
[0043] 3. The cutting platform adopted in the present invention can widen the cutting width, improve the feed amount and work efficiency without increasing the weight of the cutting platform, thereby ensuring a reasonable configuration of the center of gravity of the regenerated rice combine harvester, avoiding the whole machine from tipping forward due to "top-heavy", and improving the stability of the harvester during operation and transfer.
[0044] 4. The aluminum alloy integrated die-casting adopted in the present invention can greatly reduce the number of parts of the cutting platform device, reduce the weight of the cutting platform, simplify the cutting platform structure, and at the same time improve the structural strength and operation stability of the cutting platform.
[0045] 5. The modular one-piece die-cast high-strength cutting platform frame and modular one-piece die-cast cutting platform auger adopted in the present invention can manufacture the cutting platform frame and cutting platform auger of the required width by splicing multiple sections, which greatly improves the utilization rate of the die-casting mold, reduces production costs, and improves production flexibility and production efficiency.
[0046] 6. The additional cutter used in the present invention is a foldable and retractable type with an adjustable cutting angle. The additional cutter can be stored and attached to the bottom surface of the cutting platform frame in a non-working state, effectively reducing the space occupied by the additional cutter and improving the stability of the regenerated rice combine harvester during transfer; the additional cutter can meet the optimal cutting angle of the regenerated rice stalks at any working height, avoiding pulling and damaging the dormant buds of the regenerated rice during the cutting process.
[0047] 7. The grain conveying device adopted in the present invention is a double-auger parallel type large-flow grain conveying device, which greatly improves the grain conveying capacity and avoids the grain blockage phenomenon caused by wide cutting width and large feeding amount operating conditions; the grain conveying device of the present invention, through the double-auger parallel structure, greatly reduces the lateral size of the device, effectively utilizes the limited space between the threshing and cleaning device and the grain box, and improves the space utilization rate of the whole machine.
[0048] 8. The present invention adopts a path planning system, which can display the grain filling amount and the remaining time available in the grain box to the driver in real time during the operation. When the grain box is about to be filled, an alarm will be issued to remind the driver to unload the grain to avoid unnecessary losses caused by grain overflow and leakage; at the same time, the driver will be prompted to arrange the unloading route according to the remaining time, the current location of the machine and driving experience to avoid additional crushing of the regenerated rice by the tracks during the unloading process.
[0049] 9. The present invention adopts a path planning system. When harvesting regenerated rice, it can calculate the compaction rate of different operation paths in advance according to the different field shapes, and guide the operator to select the path with the lowest compaction rate for harvesting, effectively reducing the compaction loss and increasing the yield of regenerated rice.

The header frame side panels 1-1-2 are welded to both ends of the header frame main module 1-1-1, which are spliced together in multiple sections.

[0090] Combine Figure 14As shown, the first grain reversing conveying device 3-2 includes a first grain reversing conveying device housing 3-2-1, a first reversing conveying impeller 3-2-2, a second reversing conveying impeller 3-2-3 and a grain flow guide plate 3-2-4; the first grain reversing conveying device housing 3-2-1 has a centrifugal fan volute structure, the grain inlet is located on the side of the housing, and the end of the transverse grain conveying auger 3-1 close to the grain box 7 extends into the grain inlet; the grain outlet is located on the top surface of the housing, and is connected to the bottom ends of the first longitudinal grain conveying auger 3-3 and the second longitudinal grain conveying auger 3-4; The first reversing conveying impeller 3-2-2 is installed inside the housing 3-2-1 of the first grain reversing conveying device and is connected to the end of the horizontal grain conveying auger 3-1 shaft near the grain box 7. The direction and speed of the first reversing conveying impeller 3-2-2 are consistent with those of the horizontal grain conveying auger 3-1, that is, with the direction perpendicular to the grain inlet as a reference, the first reversing conveying impeller 3-2-2 rotates in the counterclockwise direction; the second reversing conveying impeller 3-2-3 is installed inside the housing 3-2-1 of the first grain reversing conveying device and on the side of the first reversing conveying impeller 3-2-2. -3 rotating axis is parallel to the rotating axis of the first reversing conveying impeller 3-2-2, and the two rotate in the same direction, the diameter of the second reversing conveying impeller 3-2-3 is smaller than that of the first reversing conveying impeller 3-2-2, the number of blades of the second reversing conveying impeller 3-2-3 is less than or equal to the number of blades of the first reversing conveying impeller 3-2-2, and the speed of the second reversing conveying impeller 3-2-3 is higher than or equal to the speed of the first reversing conveying impeller 3-2-2; the particle flow guide plate 3-2-4 has a centrifugal fan volute tongue structure, which smoothly transitions from the narrow end to the wide end, and the particle flow guide plate 3-2-4 is installed on the first particle flow guide plate 3-2-4.

The grain flow guide plate 3-2-4 divides the first grain reversing conveying device shell 3-2-1 into two front and rear grain flow channels, and separates the grain outlet into a first and a second parallel grain outlet. The first grain outlet and the second grain outlet are respectively connected to the bottom ends of the first longitudinal grain conveying augers 3-3 and the second longitudinal grain conveying augers 3-4.
[0091] Combine Figure 15As shown, the second grain reversing conveying device 3-5 includes a second grain reversing conveying device shell 3-5-1 and a reversing sprinkling plate 3-5-2; the second grain reversing conveying device shell 3-5-1 has two circular grain inlets on the bottom surface, and the grain inlets are directly connected with the top of the first longitudinal grain conveying augers 3-3 and the second longitudinal grain conveying augers 3-4, and the second grain reversing conveying device shell 3-5-1 is close to the grain tank 7. The side has an open grain outlet that is connected with the opening above the grain tank 7; the reversing sprinkling plate 3-5-2 is installed inside the second grain reversing conveying device shell 3-5-1, and includes two sub-sprinkling plates, which are respectively connected to the top of the first longitudinal grain conveying augers 3-3 and the second longitudinal grain conveying augers 3-4, and rotate together with the first longitudinal grain conveying augers 3-3 and the second longitudinal grain conveying augers 3-4.
[0092] like Figure 16-18 As shown, the high-performance regenerated rice combine harvester suitable for wide and narrow row planting mode also includes a path planning system 4; the path planning system 4 includes a flat plate 4-1, several piezoelectric sensors 4-2, a control unit, an early warning device and a display screen; the flat plate 4-1 is installed at the bottom of the grain tank 7, and the piezoelectric sensor 4-2 is installed on the upper surface of the flat plate 4-1. The piezoelectric sensor 4-2 is used to detect the weight of the grain in the grain tank and transmit it to the control unit; the early warning device is used to issue an early warning signal; the display model is Mitsubishi GT1050, but the model is not limited to this. The display screen is used to at least display the crushing rate of different operation paths and the remaining time of the grain tank volume; the display screen can also be used to at least input the type of grain to match different densities, and at least output the filling height in the grain tank and the remaining time of the grain tank volume. The control unit calculates the remaining time of the grain tank volume based on the information input on the display screen and the data monitored by the piezoelectric sensor 4-2. When the available time of the grain tank volume is less than the preset value, the early warning device 4-4 will start to alarm.
[0093] The warning device includes a buzzer and an LED rotating warning light. The warning device and display are integrated into the cab 8. The control unit is connected to the piezoelectric sensor 4-2, the warning device, and the display, respectively. The flat plate 4-1 needs to be tightly mounted on the bottom of the grain tank 7. The shape and size of the flat plate 4-1 can be flexibly adjusted according to the number and arrangement of the required piezoelectric sensors 4-2.
[0094] Multiple piezoelectric sensors 4-2 are monitored simultaneously to reduce errors. Data from multiple sensors is fused using a BP neural network to achieve the most accurate values. In one embodiment of the present invention, the control unit uses a BP neural network to fuse data from multiple piezoelectric sensors 4-2 to reduce errors and obtain more accurate data.
[0095] Assume that n piezoelectric sensors 4-2 are used to monitor the remaining volume of the grain tank. The weights of the n sensors are automatically adjusted through the BP neural network to fuse the external stress T. The external stress T after fusion becomes T = w1% T1 + w2% T2 + ... + w n %T n The data collected by the multiple piezoelectric sensors 4-2 are fused and processed using a BP neural network, and a large amount of data is used for training to minimize the error in the calculated grain tank filling amount.
[0096] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the control unit is a STM32h7 series single-chip microcomputer, but the model is not limited thereto, and its performance must be able to implement a BP neural network.
[0097] The control unit calculates the crushing rates of different operation paths in advance according to the shape of the field to be operated, so as to guide the operator to select the path with the lowest crushing rate for harvesting; the control unit calculates the grain tank filling amount and the remaining time available for the grain tank volume according to the grain weight signal detected by the piezoelectric sensor 4-2, and controls the early warning device to send out an early warning signal when the remaining time available for the grain tank volume is less than the preset time, reminding the driver to plan the route according to the remaining time and unload the grain in time, so as to avoid losses caused by grain leakage and additional crushing of the regenerated rice by the machine during the unloading process.
[0098] The remaining available time of the grain tank capacity is:
[0099]
[0100] Where g is the acceleration of gravity; ρ is the grain density; γ is the grain-to-straw ratio; B is the feed amount; Q 额 It is the rated capacity of the grain tank.
[0101] The early warning device includes a buzzer and an LED rotating warning light, each of which is connected to a control unit. Specifically, the input of the control unit is connected to the output of a plurality of piezoelectric sensors 4-2 via amplifier circuits. The rotating warning light and buzzer are connected to the output of the control unit via an early warning device circuit. The display screen is connected to the input and output of the control unit. The display screen is mounted within the combine harvester cab 8.
[0102] When the remaining available time of the grain tank volume is lower than the first preset value, the buzzer will emit an intermittent alarm sound and the LED light will flash intermittently, reminding the driver that the remaining volume is insufficient and to reasonably plan the harvester's route to facilitate unloading of grain; when the remaining available time of the grain tank volume is lower than the second preset value, the buzzer will emit a continuous alarm sound and the LED light will continue to flash, reminding the driver that the grain tank volume is full and harvesting can no longer continue.
[0103] like Figure 19 As shown, the piezoelectric sensor 4-2 monitors the grain weight of the combine harvester's grain tank and transmits the data to the control unit. The control unit operates under a pre-set program, calculates the final filling volume of the grain tank, and simultaneously calculates the remaining available time of the grain tank volume, and compares it with a pre-set threshold. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, when the remaining available time of the grain tank volume is 5s < t ≤ 10s, the buzzer will emit an intermittent alarm sound and the LED light will flash intermittently, reminding the driver that the remaining volume is insufficient and to plan the harvester's forward route to facilitate grain unloading. When the remaining available time of the grain tank volume is t ≤ 5s, the buzzer will emit a continuous alarm sound and the LED light will flash continuously, reminding the driver that the grain tank volume is full and that harvesting can no longer be carried out. At the same time, the remaining available time of the grain tank volume is displayed in real time on the display screen 4-5 to facilitate the driver to plan the corresponding route and unload the grain.
[0104] If the warning device sends a warning signal indicating that the grain tank is about to be full, the driver can reasonably arrange the unloading path according to the current position of the harvester to reduce the crushing rate:
[0105] If the harvester is close to the edge of the field, the driver can choose to continue harvesting and drive towards the edge of the field. When the grain tank is full, the machine is at the edge of the field and can unload the grain directly. If the harvester is at the edge of the field, although the grain tank is not full yet, the driver can choose to stop the harvesting operation directly and empty the grain tank directly at the edge of the field. If the harvester is in the center of the field and far away from the edge of the field, the operator can choose to continue harvesting until the grain tank is full, and then reverse to the edge of the field along the path the machine has traveled to unload the grain. When the driver is working along the current path, he will inevitably encounter multiple situations where the grain tank is full and needs to be unloaded. The operator can plan the unloading of grain based on the existing path and his own experience according to the alarm prompts, thereby reducing unnecessary crushing. Figure 16-19 As shown in Figure 2, the path planning process is as follows:
[0106] Before the harvest begins, Figure 18 Select the corresponding grain name on the display screen to determine the grain density and transmit the data to the control unit. Figure 18 The microcontroller shown;
[0107] like Figure 16 、 17 As shown, the plurality of piezoelectric sensors 4-2 are installed at the bottom of the grain tank 7. The continuous entry of grain causes the electrical signal of the piezoelectric sensor 4-2 to be proportional to the weight of the grain, and the obtained data is input into the control unit, i.e., the single chip microcomputer, for data processing, thereby realizing the monitoring of the weight of the grain pile in the grain tank and the volume of the filling material in the grain tank;
[0108] like Figure 18As shown, the control unit is connected to the piezoelectric sensor 4-2, the warning device, and the display screen. The control unit calculates the harvestable time of the remaining volume of the grain tank based on the information input by the piezoelectric sensor and the display screen. When the calculated time is less than or equal to a preset value, the control unit controls the warning device to sound an alarm. The calculation formula for the harvestable time of the remaining volume of the grain tank is as follows:
[0109]
[0110] By programming the calculation formula of the remaining volume of the grain tank to calculate the harvest time and running it, the remaining time of the grain tank volume is calculated and displayed on the Figure 18 The display screen shown in the figure provides a reference for the operator to operate. At the same time, it can judge whether the grain tank is about to be full and send out an alarm to remind the operator to unload the grain. The unloading alarm process is as follows: Figure 19 shown.
[0111] The principle of the piezoelectric sensor 4-2 is that some ionic crystal dielectrics can produce polarization under the action of mechanical force and their electric displacement D (charge density σ in the MKS unit system) is proportional to the external stress tensor T: Where d is the piezoelectric constant matrix.
[0112] When the external force disappears, the dielectric returns to its original uncharged state.
[0113] The remaining time that the grain tank capacity can be used should be The remaining capacity should be the combined harvester rated capacity minus the current feeding volume of grain; the grain feeding volume per second is
[0114] The remaining volume can be expressed as: Grain feeding volume per second:
[0115] Therefore, the remaining available time of the grain tank volume is:
[0116] Where g is the acceleration of gravity; ρ is the grain density; γ is the grain-to-straw ratio; B is the feed amount; Q 额 It is the rated capacity of the grain tank.
[0117] The model of the piezoelectric sensor 4-2 is BH01-YFF-4, but it is not limited to this model, and the quantity is not limited to one. The piezoelectric sensor 4-2 needs to be connected to an amplifier circuit.
[0118] Figure 22-23The figure shows a flow chart for calculating the crushing rate and selecting a path for replanting rice harvesting. During replanting rice harvesting, the path planning system 4 determines the forward harvesting route based on the field shape before harvesting to reduce the number of turns and travel distance, particularly reducing crushing of the replanting rice sprouts, thereby increasing the budding rate and, consequently, yield. The crushing rates for three different paths are calculated in advance based on the field shape, and the path with the lowest crushing rate is used for the first harvest of replanting rice, thereby minimizing damage to the replanting sprouts.
[0119] like Figure 20 As shown, the shapes of the working fields include regular working fields and irregular working fields, and the working paths include transverse S-shaped paths, longitudinal S-shaped paths, and spiral paths. The straight path of the transverse S-shaped path is perpendicular to the long side of the field and follows the S-shaped path, as shown in FIG. Figure 20 As shown in (a), the advantage is that the number of times it reaches the edge of the field is large, making it easy to arrange unloading of grain; the disadvantage is that the number of turns is large, and the turning area is large. The straight path of the longitudinal S-shaped path is parallel to the long side of the field and follows the S-shaped path, as shown in FIG. Figure 20 As shown in (b), the advantages are fewer turns and smaller turning area; the disadvantage is that it reaches the edge of the field less frequently, making it slightly more difficult to arrange grain unloading than the previous path. The spiral path starts from the outermost edge of the field and moves in a spiral path towards the center of the field, as shown in the figure below. Figure 20 As shown in (c), this route has low driving difficulty and does not require 180° turns. However, it passes by the edge of the field the least number of times. When the grain tank is full, the vehicle can only unload the grain by reversing to the edge of the field.
[0120] Next, the crushing rate when harvesting crops is calculated based on the three paths: where a is the length of the field, b is the width of the field, c is the width of the track, B1 is the cutting width, and r is the turning radius. The turning path is uniformly set to 1 / 4 arc. The total crushing rate is the straight crushing rate plus the crushing rate at the turning. Therefore, the crushing rate of the harvesting path when operating in a regular field can be calculated as:
[0121] The rolling rate R1 of the transverse S-shaped path is:
[0122]
[0123] The rolling rate R2 of the longitudinal S-shaped path is:
[0124]
[0125] The rolling rate R3 of the spiral path is:
[0126]
[0127] Before harvesting crops, the path planning system 4 calculates the crushing rates of the three paths and selects the path with the lowest crushing rate for harvesting. This is achieved in the following way:
[0128] Measure the length and width a and b of the field and input them into the control unit;
[0129] The control unit calculates the rolling rates under three paths and marks them as R1, R2, and R3;
[0130] The driver can choose the path with the lowest crushing rate to harvest crops.
[0131] The path planning system 4 can calculate the crushing rate of regular fields and standardized farmland using the above formula. However, in irregular farmland, the area of the field (including length and width) needs to be roughly estimated. To adapt to the complex field operation environment, the present invention uses a laser scanning imaging method to measure the length and width of the field to determine the harvest path: first, the field information is imaged by laser scanning, and then the characteristic endpoints of the field information are marked. After constructing a relatively standard field based on the characteristic endpoints, the harvest path planning is carried out. This is achieved by the following method:
[0132] First, laser scanning is used to image the field information. Then, the characteristic endpoints of the field information are marked. After the characteristic endpoints are constructed into relatively standard fields, harvest path planning is carried out. This can be achieved in the following ways:
[0133] like Figure 22 As shown in the figure, the endpoints of the field boundary are scanned, and four feature points z, x, v, and m are taken to construct a rectangular field. Then, the corresponding rolling rates R1, R2, and R3 are calculated according to the three operation paths. Since the rolling rate calculated by this method includes the area where no rolling is performed, the proportional coefficient ξ is introduced to obtain a more accurate rolling rate. The calculation formula is as follows:
[0134]
[0135] The area of irregular fields is calculated using the integral method, and the length and width a and b of standard fields are obtained through laser scanning. The compaction rates of the three operating paths are ξR1, ξR2, and ξR3, respectively. The driver can choose the harvesting path with the smallest compaction rate for harvesting.
[0136] like Figure 24As shown, the axis of symmetry of the header frame 1-1 coincides with the axis of symmetry of the two harvester tracks 9, achieving a symmetrical distribution of the harvesting and crushing ranges of the regenerated rice combine harvester. This facilitates the regenerated rice harvester's integration with the standardized wide-narrow row planting pattern: in straight-line operation, the two tracks 9 run in the center of two adjacent wide rows, meaning their crushing range falls within the wide row range; the one-piece die-cast, high-strength header frame 1-1 covers the narrow rows on either side of the two wide rows, meaning their harvesting range falls within the narrow row range. This arrangement of the header 1 and tracks 9 not only significantly reduces the crushing rate when operating in straight-line operation but also facilitates the implementation of the subsequent standardized navigation model and the execution of the subsequent intelligent path planning algorithm process.
[0137] A control method for the high-performance regenerated rice harvester suitable for the wide-narrow row planting mode comprises the following steps:
[0138] The driver drives the harvester, and the harvesting platform 1 harvests the regenerated rice ears and feeds the ears into the conveying trough 5; the symmetry axis of the harvesting platform 1 coincides with the symmetry axis of the two harvester tracks 9, so that the harvesting range and the crushing range of the regenerated rice combine harvester are symmetrically distributed, so that the regenerated rice harvester matches the standardized planting pattern of wide and narrow rows: in straight operation, the two tracks 9 run in the center of the two adjacent wide rows, that is, the crushing range is within the wide row range, and the harvesting platform 1 covers the narrow rows on both sides of the two wide rows, that is, the harvesting range covers the narrow row range; the additional cutter 2 controls the stubble height to retain the dormant buds under the regenerated rice stalks; the grain conveying device 3 lifts the regenerated rice grains accumulated at the bottom of the threshing and cleaning device 6 after threshing and cleaning and conveys them to the grain box 7.
[0139] The control method of the high-performance regenerated rice harvester suitable for the wide-narrow row planting mode further includes the following steps:
[0140] The path planning system 4 calculates the compaction rates of different operation paths in advance according to the shape of the field to be operated: the length and width a and b of the field are measured and input into the path planning system 4, which calculates the compaction rates under different paths and marks them as R1, R2, and R3, so that the driver can choose the path with the lowest compaction rate for crop harvesting;
[0141] The path planning system 4 calculates the grain tank filling amount and the remaining time of the grain tank volume based on the grain weight signal detected by the piezoelectric sensor 4-2, and controls the early warning device to send an early warning signal when the remaining time of the grain tank volume is less than the preset time, reminding the driver to plan the route according to the remaining time and unload the grain in time to avoid losses caused by grain leakage and additional crushing of the regenerated rice by the machine during the unloading process.
[0142] The present invention is based on the idea of organically integrating agricultural machinery and agronomy. Through standardized and mechanized wide and narrow row planting and harvesting operation modes of regenerated rice, the wide and narrow row planting specifications are matched with the track width and gauge of the harvesting machinery. Combined with path planning and other technologies, the operating performance of the regenerated rice combine harvester is optimized, and the first-season harvest of regenerated rice with low compaction is achieved. This can greatly increase the yield of regenerated rice and reduce the damage caused when harvesting the first-season rice of regenerated rice.
