[0029] The present invention provides the following embodiments.
[0030] Example 1
[0031] This invention provides a mobile tracked remote-controlled lawnmower adapted for use in mountain photovoltaic applications, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes: a support base 1, a battery-powered motor is installed inside the support base 1, the power supply motor is connected to the track drive wheel, the track drive wheel is connected to the lawnmower track 2, and a processing box 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the support base 1, and a lawnmower device is installed inside the processing box 3.
[0032] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: The present invention provides power to the track drive wheel via a power supply motor within the support base 1. The track drive wheel drives the lawnmower track 2 to move to the desired mowing position, and then the mowing device is activated to effectively remove the grass at the mowing position. This effectively improves upon the technical problems raised in the background art: existing photovoltaic fields are numerous and widely distributed, occupying a large area, and the traditional manual weeding method is inefficient and unsafe.
[0033] Example 2
[0034] Based on Example 1, such as Figure 1-3As shown, a mobile tracked remote-controlled lawnmower adapted for mountain photovoltaic applications is disclosed. The lawnmower includes: a drive motor 4, the fixed end of which is fixedly mounted on a connecting rod 5, a short rod 6 fixedly mounted on the output end of the drive motor 4, and connecting rods 7 symmetrically mounted on the front and rear ends of the short rod 6. Blade fixing mechanisms are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the other end of the connecting rods 7.
[0035] Optionally, the front-end blade fixing mechanism includes: a slide bar 8, the front and rear ends of which are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cavity 9 provided in the connecting rod 7, and a slider 10 is fixedly installed on the slide bar 8. A drive motor 11 is fixedly installed at the top of the slider 10, and a return spring 12 is sleeved on the slide bar 8 near the drive motor 4.
[0036] Optionally, the output ends of the drive motor 11 in the front and rear sets of blade fixing mechanisms of the short rod 6 are respectively fixedly installed with chaff cutter blade 23 and saw blade 13.
[0037] Optionally, the bottom end of the mowing device is connected to a displacement mechanism, which includes: a mounting frame 22, which is symmetrically fixedly installed on the inner walls of the bottom sides of the left and right ends of the processing box 3, and a motor 14 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the left mounting frame 22. One end of a threaded rod 15 is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor 14, and the other end of the threaded rod 15 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the front end of the mounting frame 22. A second slider 16 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 15. A second slider 17 is fixedly installed on the inner walls of the front and rear ends of the right mounting frame 22. A third slider 18 is slidably connected to the second slider 17. The second slider 16 and the third slider 18 are fixedly installed on a connecting rod 5.
[0038] Optionally, the processing box 3 has a through hole 19 at its front end, and a baffle 20 is fixedly installed on the support base 1 and the front end of the processing box 3, and two sets of cameras 21 are fixedly installed on the top of the processing box 3.
[0039] Optionally, a remote control system is also provided inside the bracket base 1.
[0040] The working principle of the above technical solution is as follows: When the device needs to be used, the power supply motor is started first. The power supply motor drives the track drive wheel and the drive mower track 2 connected to the track drive wheel, and moves it to the desired mowing position in conjunction with the camera 21. Then, when weeds and shrubs need to be cut, the motor 14 is started. The motor 14 drives the slider 16 connected to it to move back and forth, thereby driving the connecting rod 5 fixed to it to move back and forth, thereby moving the blade fixing mechanism at one end out of the processing box 3 through the through hole 19. Then, the drive motor 11 is started. The drive motor 11 rotates and drives the chaff cutter blade 23 fixed to it to rotate, thereby effectively cutting weeds and shrubs. When trees need to be cut, the drive motor 4 is started and rotated. The drive motor 4 rotates and drives the short rod 6 fixed to it to rotate, and the short rod 6 rotates and drives the connecting rod 7 fixed to it to rotate, thereby turning the blade fixing mechanisms at both ends, thereby effectively cutting the trees.
[0041] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: By setting the baffle 20, the present invention helps to prevent shredded weeds from splashing out during the mowing operation; by setting the camera 21, it helps to effectively observe the surrounding environment; by setting the displacement mechanism, it helps to move the blade fixing mechanism out of the processing box 3 through the through hole 19; by setting the drive motor 4 and the short rod 6, it helps to turn the blade fixing mechanism; by setting the chaff cutter blade 23 and the serrated blade 13, it helps to effectively cut different types of grass and trees; by setting the return spring 12, it helps to effectively buffer the cutting of the blade and prevent excessive stress from damaging the blade, which is very convenient and practical.

After charging is completed, it returns to the unfinished work area to continue mowing.
[0050] The lawn mowing effect monitoring and optimization module uses camera 21 and image recognition technology to monitor the mowing effect in real time and automatically adjust the cutting speed of the blades to ensure that the lawn is clean and beautiful.

[0052] Optionally, the intelligent navigation module also has a memory function, which can store and reuse multiple optimized mowing paths to improve mowing efficiency.

[0054] Optionally, the safety protection module also includes: an audible and visual alarm device that alerts the user when the lawnmower encounters an obstacle or requires maintenance, reminding the user to handle the situation promptly.
[0055] Optionally, the remote control system also supports remote control and monitoring via a mobile app, allowing users to check the lawnmower's status, control its operation, and receive alarm information anytime, anywhere.
[0056] Example 4
[0057] Based on Examples 1-3, a mobile tracked remote-controlled lawnmower adapted for mountain photovoltaic applications is provided, the lawnmower further comprising:
[0058] A speed sensor is used to detect the moving speed of the lawnmower;
[0059] The controller and alarm are electrically connected, with the controller being connected to the speed sensor and the alarm.
[0060] Preferably, the controller controls the alarm based on the speed sensor, including the following steps:
[0061] Step 1: Calculate the actual output torque T of the lawnmower track power supply motor according to formula (1):
[0062]
[0063] Where G is the weight of the lawnmower, L is the length of the lawnmower track 2 in contact with the ground, and λ max denoted as , where μ is the maximum drag coefficient of the lawnmower when turning (range 0.24-0.86), μ is the drag coefficient between the lawnmower track 2 and the soil (range 0-1.0), r is the turning radius of the lawnmower track 2, d is the center distance of the lawnmower track 2, α is the lateral offset of the lawnmower track 2, and F... m R is the soil friction force acting on the lawnmower track 2, and R is the radius of the lawnmower track drive wheel;
[0064] Step 2: Calculate the actual output power W of the lawnmower's power supply motor based on the following formula (2) and the speed sensor detection value. The controller compares the actual output power W of the lawnmower's power supply motor with the preset output power range. When the actual output power is not within the preset output power range, the controller activates the alarm.
[0065]
[0066] Where V is the speed sensor reading, S is the number of teeth on the second drive wheel of the lawnmower track, Z is the pitch of the second lawnmower track, and P... j The average ground pressure of the lawnmower track 2 (ground pressure refers to the pressure of the track on the ground per unit area, while the average ground pressure is the average pressure value after considering the contact area between the track and the ground, with a value range of 100kPa-160kPa), n is the number of lawnmower tracks 2, and X is the width of lawnmower tracks 2.
[0067] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: The controller controls the alarm to work based on the speed sensor. First, according to formula (1), the actual output torque of the lawnmower track power supply motor is calculated. By comprehensively considering the weight of the lawnmower, the length of the lawnmower track 2 in contact with the ground, the maximum resistance coefficient of the lawnmower when turning, the resistance coefficient between the lawnmower track 2 and the soil, the turning radius of the lawnmower track 2, the center distance of the lawnmower track 2, the lateral offset of the lawnmower track 2, the soil friction force on the lawnmower track 2, and the radius of the lawnmower track drive wheel, the calculation results are more accurate and reliable.
[0068] Then, based on formula (2) and the speed sensor detection value, the actual output power of the lawnmower track power supply motor is calculated, and the number of teeth of the drive wheel of the drive track, the pitch of the lawnmower track 2, the average ground voltage of the lawnmower track 2, the number of lawnmower tracks 2, and the width of the lawnmower track 2 are taken into account to make the calculation results more accurate and reliable.
[0069] The controller controls the speed sensor to work. The controller compares the actual output power of the lawnmower's power supply motor with the preset output power range. When the actual output power is not within the preset output power range, the controller controls the alarm to sound, reminding the staff to repair or replace the lawnmower's track motor in time, thereby meeting the user's needs for this type of mobile tracked remote-controlled lawnmower suitable for mountain photovoltaic applications.
