Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of agricultural equipment, and more specifically, to an omnidirectional moving chassis capable of moving ridges. Background Technology
[0002] Agricultural machinery, also known as agricultural equipment, refers to all kinds of mechanical equipment used in agricultural production. These machines can significantly improve agricultural production efficiency and reduce the labor intensity of farmers, and are an important part of modern agriculture.
[0003] Most current agricultural machinery chassis lack omnidirectional mobility, requiring ample space for turning to avoid crushing seedlings. Secondly, almost all existing chassis lack the ability to move between ridges, making it inconvenient to transfer machinery from one ridge to another, especially if seedlings are densely planted (where space is limited). Therefore, there is an urgent need to design an omnidirectional chassis capable of moving between ridges. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an omnidirectional moving chassis that can move ridges, so as to facilitate ridge moving and avoid crushing seedlings.
[0005] The present invention achieves its objective by employing the following technical solution:
[0006] An omnidirectional moving chassis for movable ridges, characterized in that it comprises: a frame and four sets of walking components; each walking component includes an upper mounting plate and a lower mounting plate, the upper mounting plate and the lower mounting plate being respectively fixedly connected to a lead screw and a guide rod, the upper mounting plate and the lower mounting plate being respectively bearing-connected to a drive shaft; the lower mounting plate is fixedly connected to a bevel gearbox, the lower end of the drive shaft is fixedly connected to the input shaft of the bevel gearbox, and the output shaft of the bevel gearbox is fixedly connected to symmetrical wheels.
[0007] As a further limitation of this technical solution, it also includes four sets of lifting components. Each lifting component includes a lifting plate, a lead screw nut fixedly connected to the lifting plate, a bearing connecting the lifting plate to another lead screw nut, a lifting motor fixedly connected to the lifting plate, the output shaft of the lifting motor passing through the lifting plate, a lifting drive gear fixedly connected to the output shaft of the lifting motor, a driven gear fixedly connected to another lead screw nut, the driving gear connecting to the driven gear, a guide rod passing through one lead screw nut, and the lead screw threadedly connected to the other lead screw nut.
[0008] As a further limitation of this technical solution, it also includes four sets of swing components. Each swing component includes a swing motor. The frame is fixedly connected to the swing motor. The output shaft of the swing motor passes through the frame and is fixedly connected to a friction wheel. The frame is bearing-connected to a friction sector plate. The friction wheel contacts the friction sector plate. The friction sector plate is fixedly connected to a circular seat. The circular seat is fixedly connected to a frame body. The frame body is fixedly connected to symmetrical horizontal plates.
[0009] 1. The omnidirectional motion chassis for movable ridges according to claim 1, characterized in that: it further includes four sets of wheel drive components, each wheel drive component including a drive motor, the drive motor being fixedly connected to the upper corresponding horizontal plate, the output shaft of the drive motor passing through the upper corresponding horizontal plate, the output shaft of the drive motor being fixedly connected to a drive gear, the drive gear meshing with a drive gear, the drive gear being fixedly connected to a transmission shaft nut, the transmission shaft nut being bearing-connected to the upper corresponding horizontal plate, the transmission shaft nut being provided with a guide hole matching the transmission shaft, and the transmission shaft being disposed within the guide hole.
[0010] As a further limitation of this technical solution, it also includes four sets of yaw components. Each yaw component includes a yaw motor, which is fixedly connected to the corresponding lower horizontal plate. The output shaft of the yaw motor passes through the corresponding lower horizontal plate and is fixedly connected to a yaw drive gear. The bearing of the corresponding lower horizontal plate is connected to the central shaft of the yaw driven gear. The yaw drive gear meshes with the yaw driven gear. The central shaft of the yaw driven gear is fixedly connected to the corresponding lifting plate, and the transmission shaft passes through the central shaft of the yaw driven gear.
[0011] As a further limitation of this technical solution, the drive shaft is a splined shaft.
[0012] As a further limitation of this technical solution, its usage mode is as follows:
[0013] S1: Leg swing mode;
[0014] The swing motor is controlled to rotate, which drives the friction wheel to rotate, the friction wheel drives the friction sector plate to rotate, and the friction sector plate drives the circular seat, the frame, the horizontal plate, the wheel drive assembly, the yaw assembly, the lifting assembly and the walking assembly to swing, thereby realizing the leg swing;
[0015] S2: Mobile mode;
[0016] The drive motor is controlled to drive the drive gear to rotate, the drive gear to drive the driven gear, the transmission shaft nut and the transmission shaft to rotate, and the transmission shaft to drive the bevel gear box to work, so as to realize the rotation of the wheels and the movement of the chassis;
[0017] S3: Turning mode;
[0018] The yaw motor is controlled to rotate, which drives the yaw drive gear to rotate. The yaw drive gear drives the yaw driven gear to rotate, and the yaw driven gear drives the lifting plate to swing, thereby realizing the swinging of the lifting assembly and the traveling assembly to achieve turning.
[0019] S4: Lifting / lowering mode;
[0020] As a further limitation of this technical solution, the lifting motor is controlled to rotate, which drives the lifting drive gear to rotate. The lifting drive gear drives the lifting driven gear and the corresponding lead screw nut to rotate. The lead screw nut drives the lead screw to move, thereby realizing the movement of the walking component relative to the frame. The transmission shaft moves relative to the transmission shaft nut, and the guide rod moves relative to the corresponding lead screw nut, changing the height difference between the wheels and the frame so as to avoid the seedlings from rubbing against the frame when transplanting the seedbed.
[0021] As a further limitation of this technical solution, by driving the lead screw nut to rotate, the lead screw can be raised and lowered. This not only adjusts the height of the frame relative to the wheel, but also raises and lowers the entire walking assembly, effectively reducing the total length of the walking assembly. Furthermore, it can change the ground clearance of any wheel, giving the chassis a better obstacle-crossing ability.
[0022] As a further limitation of this technical solution, the four walking components adopt a triangular gait, and each walking component swings to achieve walking. At this time, the ridges can be moved. If the seedlings are tall, the slender walking components can pass between the seedlings to avoid crushing them.
[0023] As a further limitation of this technical solution, the chassis has omnidirectional movement capability, enabling longitudinal, lateral and diagonal movement, as well as rotation in place.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of the present invention are:
[0025] 1. The chassis of this device has omnidirectional mobility, enabling longitudinal, lateral, and diagonal movement, as well as rotation in place. By employing a swing motor, a yaw motor, and a lifting motor, the corresponding motors are controlled to rotate in coordination during movement, achieving leg swing mode, movement mode, turning mode, and lifting mode. One or more modes can be combined to achieve longitudinal, lateral, and diagonal movement, enabling the shifting of rows and overcoming of obstacles, while avoiding crushing seedlings.
[0026] 2. This device uses a drive screw nut to rotate, thereby raising and lowering the screw. This not only adjusts the height of the frame relative to the wheels but also raises and lowers the entire walking assembly, effectively reducing the overall length of the walking assembly. It also allows for changing the ground clearance of any wheel, and the chassis has good obstacle-crossing ability. The four walking components adopt a triangular gait, swinging one component at a time to achieve movement. This allows for ridging. If the seedlings are tall, the slender walking components can pass between seedlings, avoiding crushing them. Attached Figure Description
