[0034] The depth camera 2, AI platform 7, attitude decision platform 8 and hydraulic cylinder solenoid valve are connected in sequence through the 5G network. The depth camera 2 is installed in the middle position behind the clamp of the vibration device to facilitate the boundary division of the tree trunk contour without affecting the clamping of the trunk.

[0035] like Fig.14 As shown in the framework diagram of the walnut tree trunk posture recognition system, the depth camera 2 identifies the spatial coordinate points of the walnut tree trunk boundary, and the coordinate values ​​are transmitted to the AI ​​platform 7 through the 5G network.

Under the action of the telescopic cylinder 5, the square tube slider 6-3, the hanging plate 6-4, the excitation device 4, etc. can slide back and forth along the square tube slide rail 6-6. The square tube slide rail 6-6 is welded to the cylindrical support arm 6-7. The length of the square tube slide rail 6-6 is shorter than that of the cylindrical support arm 6-7.

[0041] like Fig.14 As shown, when the binocular depth camera of the vibration harvesting equipment recognizes the trunk, because it is a depth camera, the three-dimensional spatial information of the trunk can be obtained. The trunk contour line can be obtained by performing image segmentation on the trunk through the MASKRCNN instance segmentation model, that is, the pixel position coordinates of each point cloud can be obtained. The inclination parameters of the central axis of the trunk can be obtained through the algorithm, including postures such as tilting to the left, right, forward, and backward. The inclination parameters of the central axis are transmitted to the attitude decision system of the excitation device through the network. This system can control the solenoid valve of the rotary hydraulic cylinder 6-1, the solenoid valve of the swing hydraulic cylinder 9-1, and the solenoid valve of the telescopic cylinder 5 respectively to adjust the attitude of the excitation device so that the direction of the clamping force and the direction of the excitation force are perpendicular to the central axis of the trunk, as shown in FIG. Fig.16 , 17 As shown, the excitation method perpendicular to the central axis of the trunk is the most efficient excitation method.

It can automatically identify the shape of the trunk of the tree, and then automatically adjust the swing posture of the vibration device to achieve vibration harvesting for each tree. The operation is simple and the efficiency of walnut harvesting is greatly improved.
