Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of greening pruning, and particularly to an automated greening pruning robot and a pruning method based on a complex environment. Background Art

[0002] In the context of the rapid advancement of modern urbanization, the green belts on both sides of the roads have become an essential key element in urban infrastructure construction. A green belt, in a professional definition, is a specially planned strip for greening planting. It is like a green ribbon in the urban context, skillfully inlaid on both sides of the road, playing multiple crucial roles. The green belt also performs excellently in environmental protection. It is like a natural "air purifier", which can effectively retain dust particles in the air, making the air in the city cleaner and fresher; it is also like a loyal "noise guard", relying on its dense branches and leaves to weaken noise pollution generated by vehicle driving, crowd noise, etc., creating a relatively quiet living environment for residents; at the same time, it can absorb harmful gases such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides in the air and release a large amount of oxygen through photosynthesis, injecting continuous fresh air into the city and improving the quality of the urban ecological environment.

[0003] For example, a greening pruning robot with the publication (announcement) number CN107646385A includes a vehicle and a first robotic arm mounted on the vehicle. The first robotic arm includes a first link, a second link, and a third link connecting the first and second links. The first link is connected to the vehicle, and the second link is equipped with a first trimmer.

[0004] To sum up, the following technical problems exist in the prior art: In the process of using the above prior art, although it can prune greening plants with relatively thin branches, when encountering relatively thick branches, it becomes unable to cope. At this time, the staff has to temporarily replace the pruning knife to continue the pruning work. This operation method is not only time-consuming and laborious, but also has a low degree of automation and cannot meet the requirements of high efficiency and convenience in modern urban greening maintenance. Therefore, we propose an automated greening pruning robot and a pruning method based on a complex environment. Summary of the Invention

[0039] An auxiliary trimming mechanism is assembled at the bottom of the carrier frame 6. The auxiliary trimming mechanism includes a positioning connection frame 20, a connection cavity plate 32, a fifth motor 33, a gear 34, a cutting blade 35, and a force guiding linkage rod 36. A positioning connection frame 20 is fixed to the bottom of the carrier frame 6. A connection cavity plate 32 is assembled on one side of the positioning connection frame 20.

And the U-shaped connection frame 30 is rotatably connected to the L-shaped rotation auxiliary arm 31. When the central shaft rod 27 drives the first bevel gear 28 to mesh with the second bevel gear 29 and rotate, the angle of the L-shaped rotation auxiliary arm 31 and the connection cavity plate 32 can be adjusted.

Through the setting of the intelligent controller 37, it is convenient to control the movement of the autonomous driving trolley 1 and move the device to the greening trimming area.

[0042] Embodiment 2

[0043] As Figures 1-7 shown, a trimming method for an automated greening trimming robot in a complex environment, applicable to an automated greening trimming robot in a complex environment, includes the following steps:

[0044] S1: Start the autonomous driving trolley 1 to move to the greening area, and record the green plant image through the intelligent camera 39 and transmit it to the intelligent controller 37;

[0045] S2: The intelligent controller 37 identifies the image to determine whether trimming is required. If trimming is not required, the autonomous driving trolley 1 moves to the next greening area; if trimming is required, start the robotic arm 5 and the trimming machine 19 to operate;

[0046] S3: During the trimming process, the intelligent camera 39 records the trimming picture in real time and transmits it to the intelligent controller 37 to facilitate adjusting the angle and position of the trimming machine 19;

[0047] S4: If it is necessary to trim branches, start the fifth motor 33, and at the same time control the angle of the cutting blade 35 to finally complete the automated trimming of the greening. When starting the fifth motor 33, the intelligent camera 39 records the position of the end of the cutting blade 35 in real time, and then moves the cutting blade 35 to the trimming position. The output end of the fifth motor 33 drives the gear 34 to rotate, so that the cutting blade 35 rotates under the limit of the force guiding linkage rod 36, and finally one end of the two cutting blades 35 moves towards the approaching direction until the branches are trimmed.

[0048] Based on the above, it can be seen that:

[0049] Technical problem addressed by the present invention: In the process of using the prior art, although it can prune greening plants with relatively thin branches and trunks, it becomes powerless when encountering relatively thick branches and trunks. At this time, the staff has to temporarily replace the pruning knife to continue the pruning work. This operation method is not only time-consuming and laborious, but also has a low degree of automation and cannot meet the efficient and convenient needs of modern urban greening maintenance; The technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments are adopted. At the same time, the implementation process of the above-mentioned technical solutions is as follows:

[0050] All the electrical components in this device are of the prior art, and its model is only one of them. As long as the electrical components can achieve the purpose required in this device, they can be used. Connect all the electrical components in the device and their adapted power supplies through wires, and a suitable controller should be selected according to the actual situation to meet the control requirements. For the specific connection and control sequence, refer to the working principle below, and complete the electrical connection according to the sequential working order among the electrical components. Its detailed connection means are well-known techniques in the art. The following mainly introduces the working principle and process, and no further description of electrical control will be made;

[0051] During the use process, the intelligent controller 37 controls the autonomous driving trolley 1 to move to the designated position. The intelligent camera 39 takes the greening picture and transmits it to the intelligent controller 37 for pruning judgment. When pruning is required, the robotic arm 5 and the pruning machine 19 are started. The output end of the robotic arm 5 drives the carrier 6 to move, adjusts the equipment mounting base 12 to the greening area, and at the same time, in cooperation with the position movement of the electric module 4 on the guide rail frame 3, the equipment mounting base 12 can be adjusted to a more accurate position until the pruning machine 19 contacts the greening, realizing the pruning operation of the greening;

[0052] When the degree of freedom of the position of the pruning machine 19 needs to be increased, the first motor 7 is started. The output end of the first motor 7 drives the first transmission rod 8 to rotate, and then the first transmission rod 8 pulls the second transmission rod 10 to move through the first connecting rod 9. Because the second transmission rod 10 is rotationally connected to the folded long plate 11, and the folded long plate 11 is rotationally connected to the first transmission rod 8, the first transmission rod 8 and the second transmission rod 10 can drive the folded long plate 11 to move. At the same time, the second motor 13 is started. The output end of the second motor 13 drives the third transmission rod 14 to rotate, so that the fourth transmission rod 16 pulls the second connecting rod 18 to rotate through the V-shaped force application arm 15 and the fifth transmission rod 17, and then the equipment mounting base 12 can rotate along the connection with the folded long plate 11, realizing the dual adjustment of the angle and position of the pruning machine 19.

[0053] Through the above settings, this application can surely solve the above technical problems. At the same time, the following technical effects can be achieved:

[0054] 1. Through the structural design of the autonomous vehicle 1, the lifting platform 2, the greening pruning mechanism and the auxiliary pruning mechanism, the present invention makes it convenient for the device to perform multiple transformations on the position and angle of the pruning operation, capable of adapting to the three-dimensional pruning requirements of low-growing herbaceous plants, shrubs and trees, as well as synchronously pruning the ground greening, and can seamlessly switch to pruning greening branches of different thicknesses, being applicable to complex greening environments such as roads and parks, improving the pruning efficiency and standardization level.

[0055] 2. Through the structural design of the adjustment mechanism and the control mechanism, the present invention enables the device to intelligently regulate the collaborative operation between various electrical devices, facilitating the improvement of the automation level of the pruning operation, reducing the manual labor intensity and enhancing the pruning efficiency.
