[0030] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0031] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the present invention is a new type of drill rod system, including an intelligent lifting fixture 1, a visual sorting system 2, an electric-controlled clamping and rotating mechanism 3, and a multi-section threaded cutting drill rod mechanism 4: the intelligent lifting fixture 1 is connected to the bottom plate of the vehicle body by welding to control the fixing and lifting effect of the drill rod 41. The visual sorting system 2 uses the machine vision function to identify foreign matter on the surface of the drill rod 41 and remove it. The electric-controlled clamping and rotating mechanism 3 is fixed on the bracket to drive the drill rod 41 to rotate, thereby achieving the function of automatic rod removal. The multi-section threaded cutting drill rod mechanism 4 is connected by a threaded joint to deliver the rod. A soil crushing device is installed inside the drill rod 41 to cut and suck large soil blocks appearing in the loess to prevent the drill rod 41 from being blocked.
[0032] The intelligent lifting fixture 1 includes a fixed plate 11, a ball screw lifting platform 12, an electric push rod 13, an electric push rod support frame 14, a rigid connection key 15, and a mechanical scissors 16. The fixed plate 11 is welded to the front end of the base plate, and the fixed plate 11 is bound to the ball screw lifting platform 12 by bolt connection. At the same time, the electric push rod support frame 14 is bolted to the workbench of the ball screw lifting platform 12, and the electric push rod 13 is bolted to the bracket. The pin connects the front end of the electric push rod 13 and the two rigid connection keys 15. Similarly, the pin connects one end of the rigid connection key 15 to the two handle ends of the mechanical scissors 16. The mechanical scissors 16 are composed of two steel plates. By using the up and down movement of the ball screw lifting platform 12, the fixture can be controlled to clamp the drill rod 41 at different positions, and the drill rod 41 can be driven to connect with the reducer 5 to reduce the working time. The electric push rod 13 shrinks the mechanical scissors 16 through telescopic action to form a fixture.
[0033] The visual sorting system 2 includes a CMOS camera 21, Opencv image processing software, an alarm system, and a PLC control system. The CMOS camera 21 is placed on a ball screw lifting platform 12 and equipped with a multi-angle camera to ensure that the shape and size of the soil block are fully captured. Image preprocessing is performed through Opencv software, including graying, noise removal, and edge detection, so that the outline of the foreign body is clearer. The background is removed by using regional segmentation technology to separate the foreign body from the complex background. The outline of the foreign body is obtained by the Canny edge detection algorithm, and the shape and area of the foreign body are obtained by the contour detection algorithm. The major axis and minor axis of the soil block are calculated to determine whether its size meets the screening criteria. An alarm system with an alarm threshold set according to the size of the foreign body. When a foreign body exceeding the threshold is detected, the signal is sent to the PLC control system for signal processing, and then a light alarm is issued. Relying on feedback information, the intelligent lifting fixture 1 is adjusted, and the surface of the drill rod 41 is subsequently cleaned.

The rotating clamp block 37 is welded to one end of the flat key block 36, and a through hole in the rotating clamp block 37 is connected to the outer collar 34 by a headless screw. The DC motor 31 drives the small gear 32 to rotate, and drives the large gear 33 to rotate through the gear meshing action. The large gear 33 drives the rotating ring 35 to rotate, thereby driving the flat key block 36 to rotate, and then the rotating clamping block 37 rotates inward to form a clamping posture.

A through hole is opened on the drill rod 41 for inserting the rigid shaft 43, and the rolling bearing 45 is connected to the rigid shaft 43 by interference fit. A gasket 47 is placed between each rolling bearing 45, and isolating rings 46 are placed on both sides of the rolling bearings 45 at both ends to prevent the rolling bearings 45 from shaking and deflecting.
