Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a coconut picking robot, in particular to a wheeled tree-climbing robot as a basic structural unit, which is equipped with a picking mechanical arm with a saw blade at the end to climb trees and cut coconut roots to achieve the purpose of picking. Background Art
[0002] The coconut picking robot uses a wheeled tree-climbing robot as its basic structural unit. The robotic arm and harvesting saw blade are assembled to form a harvesting robotic arm. The robotic arm and the mounting parts on the side of the robot are then fixedly connected to form a composite structural system, allowing the whole machine to integrate the two functions of "tree climbing" and "cutting".

[0008] The frame tube is designed in two halves, so that it can be manually wrapped around the tree, and connected by bolts;
[0009] The support platform is connected to the frame pipe through a pipe clamp, and screw holes for placing the mechanical arm, the clamping arm and the control element are respectively provided on the support platform; the support platform plays the role of supporting the mechanical arm, the clamping arm and the control element at the same time;
[0010] There is a gear at the end of the clamping arm, which is placed in the support platform and has a boss outside for welding with the clamping arm; the gear is connected to the clamping motor to ensure the clamping effect; there are eight clamping arms in total, and each clamping arm is composed of two front and rear steel plates connected by screws. A support plate is connected to the end of the clamping arm, on which a servo is installed, which is connected to the drive wheel support frame. The purpose of this design is to make the robot more maneuverable on the tree.
[0011] The driving wheels are connected to the driving wheel support frame through motors, and the four driving wheels are all controlled by independent motors;
[0012] The picking robot arm consists of a base, a turntable, a big arm, a middle arm and a small arm. The big arm and the turntable, the middle arm and the big arm, and the small arm and the middle arm are connected through a servo. A high-speed motor is fixed at the end of the small arm, and the saw blade is connected to the high-speed motor. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
