[0003] In existing technologies, in order to reduce the competition of weeds for crops during agricultural cultivation, it is usually necessary to weed the farmland. Traditional weeding methods are generally carried out by manual weeding or by using weeding machinery. During the weeding process, weeders need to work continuously or move the machinery. When the farmland area is large, traditional weeding methods will result in a large labor intensity, and weeders will become tired, which will reduce weeding efficiency and affect the weeding effect. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an automated farmland weeding robot to solve the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, during use, workers add herbicide to the water tank. Then, they connect an external computer or mobile device to the robot via Bluetooth and network signals. The external computer or mobile device transmits the Bluetooth and network signals to the circuit board through the Bluetooth and network receiving antennas. The circuit board then feeds back electrical signals to the PLC controller, enabling remote control. The PLC controller activates the mobile vehicle, laser scanning sensor, and vision camera sensor. The mobile vehicle's wheels move, and the laser scanning sensor scans the surrounding farmland environment. The main control chip and sensor chip on the top of the circuit board process the data from the vision camera sensor and feed the processed information back to the PLC controller. Simultaneously, the information is fed back to the worker's external computer or mobile device via the Bluetooth and network receiving antennas. At this point, staff can set the weeding path. After the above steps are completed, the moving vehicle will drive the visual camera sensor to move, allowing the visual camera sensor to capture images of weeds on the farmland. The collected data will then be processed by the main control chip on the top of the circuit board, and the processed information will be fed back to the PLC controller. The PLC controller will then process the data feedback from the external device to identify crops or weeds. When the visual camera sensor detects weeds, the PLC controller will control the spraying of herbicide-containing solution through the water outlet pipe to the weed growth area, thereby achieving the weeding effect. In summary, this achieves the effect of automatically cleaning weeds on farmland.

During use, the operator adds herbicide to the water tank 10. Then, the operator connects an external computer or mobile device to the robot via Bluetooth and network signals. The external computer or mobile device transmits the Bluetooth and network signals to circuit board 13 through Bluetooth receiving antenna 7 and network receiving antenna 8. Circuit board 13 then feeds back electrical signals to PLC controller 3, enabling remote control. At this time, PLC controller 3 controls the activation of the mobile vehicle 2, laser scanning sensor 4, and vision camera sensor 15. The wheels of the mobile vehicle 2 then move, and the laser scanning sensor 4 scans and provides feedback on the external farmland environment during movement. The main control chip and sensor chip on the top of circuit board 13 process the data from vision camera sensor 15 and feed the processed information back to PLC controller 3. Simultaneously, the information is fed back to the operator's external computer or mobile device via Bluetooth receiving antenna 7 and network receiving antenna 8. At this point, staff can set the weeding path. After the previous step is completed, the moving vehicle 2 moves the visual camera sensor 15, allowing it to capture images of weeds on the farmland. The collected data is then processed by the main control chip on top of the circuit board 13, and the processed information is fed back to the PLC controller 3.

Under the meshing transmission action of the first transmission gear 23 and the first gear ring 25, the positioning cylinder 16 and its internal water outlet pipe 26 can be rotated. At this time, the spraying direction of the water outlet pipe 26 is adjusted so that it is consistent with the growth direction of the weeds. At the same time, the rotation of the drive shaft of the second electric motor 29 will drive the third transmission gear 30 to rotate.
