AI Technical Summary
Existing early warning methods for agricultural drive shafts rely on fixed torque thresholds, which can lead to false alarms or missed alarms. They cannot effectively detect weed entanglement, causing the drive shaft to suddenly seize up and become damaged.
By collecting real-time torque and speed signals of the drive shaft, the weed entanglement coefficient is calculated, and the hydraulic solenoid valve is used to control the clutch to cut off the power output, thus preventing the drive shaft from suddenly locking up.
It enables accurate detection of slow weed entanglement, avoids damage to the drive shaft and gearbox, and improves the safety and reliability of the equipment.
