[0022] The integrated design of the walking mechanism 1, the variable fertilizing mechanism 2, and the fertilizer storage mechanism 3 achieves high efficiency, precision, and intelligence in agricultural fertilization operations. With two variable fertilizing mechanisms 2 symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the walking mechanism 1, fertilization operations can be performed on fruit trees on both sides simultaneously, reducing operation time, greatly increasing the coverage area and operation speed of a single operation, and improving operation efficiency. Each variable fertilizing mechanism 2 is equipped with at least three sets of hole-digging fertilizing modules 22, so that multiple hole-digging operations can be completed on one side at a time during fertilization operations, thereby significantly saving manpower and time costs, and thus improving operation efficiency.

The flexible pulling member 23264 is wound, generating a pulling force. The pulling force overcomes the elastic force of the first elastic member 23265, and pulls the box plate 23261 along the displacement groove toward the axis direction of the turntable 2324, so that the depth of the fertilizer storage chamber becomes deeper and can accommodate more organic fertilizers, so that the amount of fertilizer applied can be adjusted in real time according to the growth of the fruit trees, thereby improving the efficiency and targetedness of fertilization. Since all the winding drums 23263 are fixed on the same second rotating shaft 23262, they rotate and reel synchronously, realizing complete synchronous and equal adjustment of the depth of all fertilizer storage chambers, thereby achieving precise synchronous adjustment, compact structure and high integration, and the winding power part 23266 can accurately control the rotation angle of the second rotating shaft 23262, thereby accurately controlling the moving distance of the box plate 23261, realizing stepless and continuous adjustment of the depth of the fertilizer storage chamber, and high precision in controlling the amount of fertilizer applied.

The input ends of at least three groups of nested fertilizer delivery pipes 2331 are connected to the second adapter 2323 of the variable-pitch fertilizing portion 232. The at least three groups of fertilizer delivery pipes 2331 are slidably sleeved in sequence from top to bottom, wherein the diameter of the fertilizer delivery pipes 2331 gradually increases from top to bottom, and the inner wall of the next fertilizer delivery pipe 2331 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the previous fertilizer delivery pipe 2331.

The human-shaped baffle 23311 has a leakage hole 23312 along its own height direction, which divides the falling fertilizer flow into multiple thin streams, ensuring that the fertilizer enters the receiving bucket 2332 at a low speed and uniform state.
[0029] The fertilizer delivered through the second adapter 2323 enters the input end of the top fertilizer delivery pipe 2331, and the fertilizer flows through the nested fertilizer delivery pipes 2331 step by step, and is diverted by the human-shaped baffle 2331 at the outlet of each level. The variable pitch power component 2335 passively and adaptively adjusts the extension length of adjacent fertilizer delivery pipes through the movement of the robotic arm 21. The length of the fertilizer delivery pipe 2331 can be accurately adjusted according to different working environments and delivery distances to achieve the best delivery effect. The ball head 2333 rotates in the ball socket 2334 to compensate for the angular deviation of the bottom fertilizer delivery pipe 2331. The fertilizer enters the receiving bucket 2332 through the fertilizer delivery pipe 2331 and then enters the hollow rod 224.
[0030] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 6 The variable pitch power assembly 2335 includes a second elastic member 23351 for resetting the upper fertilizer delivery tube 2331 to the lower fertilizer delivery tube 2331, and a rotating column 23352 rotatably arranged on the side wall of the lower fertilizer delivery tube 2331. One end of the second elastic member 23351 is coaxially fixedly matched with the rotating column 23352, and the other end is fixedly connected to the side wall of the input end of the upper fertilizer delivery tube 2331; the second elastic member 23351 is a clockwork spring, and the protective cover covers the clockwork spring on the rotating column 2335 2, the other end of the clockwork spring passes through the protective cover and extends out of the protective cover; when working, when the mechanical arm 21 extends, the fertilizer delivery pipe 2331 is extended, and the clockwork spring is stretched at this time. When the mechanical arm 21 retracts, the clockwork spring uses its own elastic restoring force to pull the fertilizer delivery pipe 2331 back to a suitable length for conveying fertilizer. Through the design of the clockwork spring and relying on the elastic potential energy of the clockwork spring, the length between adjacent fertilizer delivery pipes 2331 can automatically adapt to different telescopic working requirements, thereby improving the practicality and flexibility of the variable-length conveying part 233.

One end of the third elastic member is fixedly connected to the bottom of the annular groove, and the other end is fixedly connected to the input end of the upper fertilizer delivery pipe 2331. The third elastic member is a coil spring. When the robot arm 21 is extended, it drives the adjacent fertilizer delivery pipe 2331 to extend. At this time, the coil spring is stretched. When the robot arm 21 retracts, the coil spring uses its own elastic restoring force to pull the adjacent fertilizer delivery pipe 2331 back to the appropriate length to transport fertilizer. Through the design of the coil spring, relying on the elastic potential energy of the coil spring, the length of the adjacent fertilizer delivery pipe 2331 can automatically adapt to different telescopic working requirements, thereby improving the practicality and flexibility of the variable pitch conveying part 233.

[0033] The angle adjustment module 24 also includes a telescopic reinforcement 247, both ends of which are hinged to the adjacent receiving arms 221 through hinged seats. The telescopic reinforcement 247 includes a hydraulic cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder or an electric push rod. The telescopic reinforcement 247 can be used to adjust the angle between adjacent hole-digging and fertilizing modules 22 to be more stable, and can also stably transmit force when the hole-digging and fertilizing modules 22 dig holes.
[0034] The rotating rod 243 is driven to rotate by the angle power member 244, and the outer teeth 245 on the rotating rod 243 are engaged with the inner teeth 246 in the connecting hole 2411 for transmission, driving the receiving arm 221 to rotate to achieve the angle adjustment between adjacent receiving arms 221, so that the variable fertilization mechanism 2 can flexibly adapt to different fruit trees at different growth stages, ensuring accurate alignment of the fertilization position, and by cooperating with the telescopic reinforcement member 247, it can not only enhance the strength and stability of the connection part, but also stably transmit the force.
[0035] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3The mechanical arm 21 includes a fixed arm 211 vertically and fixedly connected above the walking mechanism 1, a telescopic arm 212 slidably installed in the fixed arm 211, a support arm 213 horizontally installed on the top of the telescopic arm 212, and an extension arm 214 installed inside the support arm 213. A lifting hydraulic cylinder is installed in the fixed arm 211, and the output end of the lifting hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the telescopic arm 212. An extension hydraulic cylinder is installed in the support arm 213, and the output end of the extension hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the extension arm 214. Any receiving arm 221 of at least three groups of the digging and fertilizing modules 22 is installed on the end of the extension arm 214 away from the support arm 213. It is fixed vertically above the walking mechanism 1 and serves as the basic support structure of the mechanical arm 21. The lifting hydraulic cylinder pushes the telescopic arm 212 to slide up and down in the fixed arm 211 to adjust the working height of the digging and fertilizing module 22. The extending hydraulic cylinder pushes the extending arm 214 to extend and retract horizontally in the support arm 213 to control the horizontal distance of the digging point, so that it can adapt to the position of the fertilization point at different growth stages of different fruit trees.
[0036] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 9 The fertilizer storage mechanism 3 includes a lifting arm 31 fixedly connected to the top of the walking mechanism 1 and arranged in a rectangular shape, a box body 32 fixedly connected to the top of the lifting arm 31, a crushing part 33 rotatably arranged in the box body 32 and dividing the box body 32 into two upper and lower chambers, and a triangular partition 34. The triangular partition 34 divides the lower chamber of the box body 32 into a left fertilizer storage chamber 35 and a right fertilizer storage chamber 36. The crushing part 33 includes a first roller 331 rotatably arranged in the box body 32, a second roller 332 rotatably arranged in the box body 32, a plurality of roller cutters 333, a first gear 334 coaxially fixedly matched with the first roller 331, a second gear 335 coaxially fixedly matched with the second roller 332, and a crushing power member 336 for driving the first roller 331 to rotate. The crushing power member 336 includes an electric motor or a hydraulic motor, and an annular transmission member that transmits and connects the first roller 331 and the output end of the electric motor or the hydraulic motor. The annular transmission member is a pulley drive or a sprocket drive. The plurality of roller cutters 333 are equidistantly arranged on the first roller 331 and the second roller 332, and the roller cutters 333 on the first roller 331 and the second roller 332 are staggered.
[0037] The first roller 331 is driven to rotate by a crushing power member 336, and the meshing transmission of the first gear 334 and the second gear 335 drives the second roller 332 to rotate in the opposite direction. The staggered roller cutters 333 on the two rollers form a shearing and crushing effect, breaking the fertilizer lumps entering the box 32 into uniform particles, so that the organic fertilizer can be better absorbed and the loading capacity of the organic fertilizer can be adjusted to meet the different needs of different fruit trees at different growth stages, avoiding agglomeration that affects fertilization accuracy and preventing blockage during the delivery process of the variable delivery module 23. The crushed fertilizer falls into the left and right fertilizer storage chambers 36 separated by the triangular partition 34, allowing the fertilizer to slide down the inclined surface of the triangular partition 34 by its own gravity and always remain at the bottom of the left and right fertilizer storage chambers 36, facilitating the continuous supply of fertilizer to the variable delivery modules 23 of the variable fertilization mechanism 2 on the left and right sides.
[0038] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 10 The digging and fertilizing module 22 further includes a water spraying module 25, which is used to moisten the organic fertilizer delivered from the variable delivery module 23; The water spray module 25 includes an annular tube 251, a water spray head 252, and a spiral water pipe, which are located within the discharge end of the variable conveying module 23. There are multiple water spray heads 252, which are evenly spaced on the annular tube 251 and spray water in the direction of the central axis of the hollow rod 224. The annular tube 251 is connected to an external water source via a delivery pump 254 and the spiral conveying pipe 253. The spiral conveying pipe 253 has a certain degree of elasticity and hardness, allowing for continuous water delivery. Each water spray head 252 is equipped with a control valve 255. The water tank 11 is located above the walking mechanism 1 and is connected to the annular tube 251. The control valve 255 can accurately control the amount of water sprayed. Multiple control valves 255 can be integrated into the control mechanism 5 for unified control, thereby facilitating management. The annular tube 251 is fixed below the inner wall of the receiving bucket 2332 and above the hollow tube. Multiple water spray heads 252 are evenly spaced on the annular tube 251, and the water spray direction is toward the central axis of the hollow tube. This makes the water spray coverage wider, allowing the organic fertilizer to fully contact the water, allowing the organic fertilizer to dissolve into the soil and be better absorbed. Before fertilizing, the water spray module 25 can be used to spray water to moisten the pit, which helps the organic fertilizer dissolve better.
[0039] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 11 and Figure 12, further comprising an obstacle avoidance mechanism 4, the obstacle avoidance mechanism 4 comprising an L-shaped plate 41 fixedly connected to the front of the traveling mechanism 1, and a plurality of obstacle avoidance portions 42 arranged along the width direction of the L-shaped plate 41, forming a detection zone covering the entire width of the traveling mechanism 1, which can cover the lateral area in front of the traveling mechanism 1, and can detect obstacles in all directions with a wide coverage range, and can also adjust the travel route of the traveling mechanism 1 by controlling the control mechanism 5 according to the position of the obstacle; The obstacle avoidance portion 42 includes a U-shaped touch plate 421, a contact point 422 fixed to the U-shaped touch plate 421, a contact block 423 fixed to the front side of the L-shaped side plate, an elastic member 424 for returning the U-shaped touch plate 421 to the front, and a force sensor 425 mounted on the front side of the L-shaped plate 41 and fixed to the rear end of the elastic member 424. The L-shaped plate 41 has a sliding hole 426 that slidably cooperates with the U-shaped touch plate 421. There are two elastic components 424 , each of which includes a spring. The two springs are respectively mounted on arms at both ends of the U-shaped touch panel 421 .
[0040] During the movement of the walking mechanism 1, if there is an obstacle in front, the U-shaped touch plate 421 contacts the obstacle, and the U-shaped touch plate 421 slides with the sliding hole 426 to move backward. At this time, the elastic component 424 is compressed, and the force sensor 425 measures the resistance in real time. The control mechanism 5 analyzes the force results and adjusts the movement mode and direction of the walking mechanism 1 according to the established procedure. If, during the movement of the walking mechanism 1, the elastic component 424 is compressed to the limit, so that the contact point 422 contacts the contact block 423, it can be determined that the obstacle cannot be overcome by the walking mechanism 1. At this time, the movement route of the walking mechanism 1 can be adjusted manually or by the control mechanism 5.
[0041] The obstacle avoidance unit 42 also includes an obstacle detection module, which detects obstacles in front of the walking mechanism 1 in real time. The obstacle detection module can be an ultrasonic sensor. If an obstacle is detected, it can be fed back to the control mechanism 5 to slow down the travel speed of the walking mechanism 1 to ensure the safety of the walking mechanism 1. If it does not return to the normal travel speed.
[0042] Working principle: First, organic fertilizer is put into the box 32 from the top, and the first roller 331 is driven to rotate by the crushing power member 336. The meshing transmission of the first gear 334 and the second gear 335 drives the second roller 332 to rotate in the opposite direction. The staggered roller cutters 333 on the two rollers form a shearing and crushing effect, breaking the fertilizer blocks entering the box 32 into uniform particles. The crushed fertilizer falls into the left and right fertilizer storage chambers 36 separated by the triangular partition 34, so that the fertilizer can slide along the inclined surface of the triangular partition 34 by its own gravity and always stay at the bottom of the left and right fertilizer storage chambers 36. According to the path component, the walking path of the walking mechanism 1 is planned and reaches the fertilizing point. The telescopic arm 212 is pushed up and down in the fixed arm 211 by the lifting hydraulic cylinder to adjust the working height of the digging and fertilizing module 22. The hydraulic cylinder is extended to push the extension arm 214 to extend and retract horizontally in the support arm 213 to control the horizontal distance of the digging point, so that at least three groups of digging and fertilizing modules 22 of the variable fertilizing mechanism 2 on both sides are located above the digging position of the fruit tree and the blade teeth 2261 on the spiral knife arm 226 are in contact with the ground. The digging power part 227 drives the hollow rod 224 to rotate and drive the wheel ring 225 to rotate. The two ends of the spiral knife arm 226 are respectively fixed on the circular ring 223 and the wheel ring 225. The spiral knife arm 226 also rotates with the hollow rod 224. The rotating spiral knife arm 2 26 uses the blade teeth 2261 thereon to cut the soil, and the cut soil enters the digging tube 222 from the gap between the spiral cutter arms 226, and the soil-feeding spiral piece 2241 cooperates with the inner wall of the digging tube 222 to continuously push the soil entering the digging tube 222 from the bottom upward, and the soil pushed upward by the soil-feeding spiral piece 2241 is finally transported to the soil storage space 228 between the top of the soil-feeding spiral piece 2241 and the top and circumferential side wall of the digging tube 222. When the digging is completed, the mechanical arm 21 controls at least three groups of digging and fertilizing modules 22 to rise a certain distance, and the variable conveying module 23 causes the crushed organic fertilizer to flow out from the bottom of the fertilizer storage chamber of the fertilizer storage mechanism 3 according to the different fertilizer amounts set according to the needs of different fruit trees, and the fertilizer flows into the variable conveying module 23 through the bellows 231. The first adapter 2322 of the fertilizing part 232 enters the interior of the shell 2321, and then enters the fertilizer storage chamber on the turntable 2324. The variable power part 2327 drives the first rotating shaft 2325 to rotate and drives the turntable 2324 to rotate. The fertilizer storage chamber filled with fertilizer leaves the feed port position. When the fertilizer storage chamber rotates to a position aligned with the second adapter 2323, the fertilizer is discharged from the fertilizer storage chamber under the action of gravity and enters the input end of the top fertilizer delivery pipe 2331 through the second adapter 2323. The fertilizer flows through the nested fertilizer delivery pipes 2331 step by step and is diverted by the human-shaped baffle 23311 at each outlet. The variable pitch power component 2335 passively and adaptively adjusts the extension length of adjacent fertilizer delivery pipes through the movement of the robotic arm 21, which can be adjusted according to different working conditions. The length of the fertilizer delivery pipe 2331 is accurately adjusted according to the environment and delivery distance to achieve the best delivery effect. The ball head 2333 rotates in the ball socket 2334 to compensate for the angular deviation of the fertilizer delivery pipe 2331 at the bottom. The fertilizer enters the receiving bucket 2332 through the fertilizer delivery pipe 2331 and is fixed to the bottom of the inner wall of the receiving bucket 2332 and above the hollow pipe through the annular pipe 251. Multiple water spray heads 252 are arranged on the annular pipe 251 at equal intervals, and the water spraying direction is all toward the central axis of the hollow pipe, so that the water spraying coverage is wider, so that the organic fertilizer can fully contact with the water and then enter the hollow rod 224. The organic fertilizer is transported from the fertilizer storage mechanism 3 to the top of the hollow rod 224. Under the action of gravity, the fertilizer is directly transported to the bottom of the dug pit.During the fertilizer delivery process, the soil can be dropped into the pit after the fertilizer is delivered in one go, and then the hollow rod 224 is rotated in the opposite direction by the digging power member 227 and the mechanical arm 21 is lifted. Alternatively, the soil can be dropped into the pit while the hollow rod 224 is rotated in the opposite direction by the digging power member 227 and the mechanical arm 21 is lifted. This allows the digging, fertilizing, and covering operations to be completed automatically in an integrated manner, thereby greatly reducing labor costs, reducing operating steps, and improving work efficiency.
[0043] In summary, the present invention realizes the efficiency, precision and intelligence of agricultural fertilization operations through the integrated design of the walking mechanism 1, the variable fertilization mechanism 2 and the fertilizer storage mechanism 3. By symmetrically arranging the two variable fertilization mechanisms 2 on the left and right sides of the walking mechanism 1, the fruit trees on both sides can be fertilized at the same time, reducing the operation time, greatly improving the coverage area and operation speed of a single operation, and improving the operation efficiency. By equipping each variable fertilization mechanism 2 with at least three sets of digging and fertilizing modules 22, multiple holes can be completed on one side at a time during the fertilization operation, thereby significantly saving manpower and time costs, and thus improving the operation efficiency. Through the coordinated cooperation between the mechanical arm 21, the digging and fertilizing module 22, the variable conveying module 23 and the angle adjustment module 24, the angle and position of the digging and fertilizing module 22 can be adjusted according to the actual planting spacing and growth conditions of the fruit trees, so that it can be applied to a variety of fruit trees in different growth periods, different fruit tree tree shapes and other fruit trees. At least three groups of digging and fertilizing modules 22 are controlled by the mechanical arm 21 to be located above the digging position of the fruit tree and to make the teeth 2261 on the spiral cutter arm 226 contact the ground. The digging power part 227 drives the hollow rod 224 to rotate and drives the wheel ring 225 to rotate. The two ends of the spiral cutter arm 226 are respectively fixed on the circular ring 223 and the wheel ring 225. The spiral cutter arm 226 also rotates with the hollow rod 224. The rotating spiral cutter arm 226 uses the teeth 2261 thereon to cut the soil. The cut soil enters the digging tube 222 from the gap between the spiral cutter arms 226. The soil sending spiral piece 2241 cooperates with the inner wall of the digging tube 222 to continuously push upward the soil entering the digging tube 222 from the bottom. The soil pushed upward by the soil sending spiral piece 2241 is finally transported to the top of the soil sending spiral piece 2241 and the top of the digging tube 222 and In the soil storage space 228 between the circumferential side walls, after the hole is dug, the robotic arm 21 controls at least three groups of hole digging and fertilizing modules 22 to be lifted a certain distance. The variable conveying module 23 conveys organic fertilizer from the fertilizer storage mechanism 3 to the top of the hollow rod 224 according to the different fertilizer amounts set for different fruit trees. Under the action of gravity, the fertilizer is directly conveyed to the bottom of the dug hole. The fertilizer conveying process can be a one-time conveying process, and then the hole digging power part 227 rotates the hollow rod 224 in the opposite direction and the robotic arm 21 is lifted to make the soil fall into the hole. It can also be a process of conveying fertilizer while the hole digging power part 227 rotates the hollow rod 224 in the opposite direction and the robotic arm 21 is lifted to make the soil fall into the hole. This realizes the automatic completion of the hole digging, fertilizing, and soil covering operations, thereby greatly reducing labor costs, reducing operating steps, and improving work efficiency. Therefore, the present invention effectively overcomes the various shortcomings of the prior art and has high industrial utilization value.
