Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of intelligent agricultural machinery equipment, and in particular to an intelligent weeding robot for orchards. Background Art

[0002] In orchard weeding operations, traditional manual weeding methods are inefficient and labor-intensive, and cannot meet the weeding needs of large orchards. With the development of social economy and the aging of the population, agricultural labor costs have increased rapidly, and there is even a situation where there is no labor available, which seriously affects agricultural production. Traditional mechanical weeders are operated by professional operators, and use rotary tillage to loosen the soil to weed between rows in the orchard. This weeding method cannot remove weeds between plants, has a low removal rate, destroys the soil surface structure, and easily damages the roots of fruit trees in the shallow soil layer. In addition, this mechanical weeding method requires high proficiency of the operator, has high labor intensity, and does not have the ability to operate intelligently and autonomously. Although chemical weeding is fast and efficient, the use of chemical herbicides in orchard weeding operations will cause environmental pollution and soil structure degradation. Herbicides will penetrate into the soil and reach the roots of fruit trees or splash onto fruit trees, which will affect the growth of fruit trees, damage the fruit, and affect the quality of the fruit. In particular, some harmful chemical residues will cause unpredictable damage. The weeding robot collects image information through a camera during work. A large amount of dust will be generated when mechanical weeding is used. At the same time, the dust adheres to the camera, resulting in a decrease in its information collection ability. In addition, the positioning and sensors of the weeding robot will be installed on its shell. The dust adheres to the shell and has an adverse effect on the use of these components. In addition, dust adheres to the shell of the weeding robot for a long time and will cause scaling, which makes it more troublesome to clean up later. Summary of the invention
