Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0029] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the utility model provides an intelligent weeding robot, which mainly includes: a walking mechanism, a lifting device 2, a mowing device 3 and a tilling device 4, wherein:
[0030] The traveling mechanism includes a vehicle frame 1, wheels, a power system and a navigation system. In the figure, only the vehicle frame 1 is shown as a schematic, and the wheels, power system and navigation system are not shown.
[0031] A mowing device 3 and a tilling device 4 are respectively provided in the forward direction of the self-propelled vehicle. The mowing device 3 is located at the front end of the self-propelled vehicle. The lifting device 2 is fixed inside the frame 1. The lifting device 2 extends out of the bottom plane of the frame 1 and is fixedly connected to the mowing device 3 and the tilling device 4 respectively. The power system on the walking mechanism drives the self-propelled vehicle to move to the weed position according to the navigation system. The lifting device 2 first controls the mowing device 3 to descend to a suitable position to cut the weeds on the soil. The lifting device 2 then controls the tilling device 4 to dig out the weed roots. The first guide rod 212 and the first guide sleeve 23 in the lifting device 2 constrain and guide the axial movement of the first screw rod 211. The second guide rod 222 and the second guide sleeve 24 are used to constrain and guide the axial movement of the second screw rod 221. The first screw rod 211 and the second screw rod 221 are each other's guiding mechanisms, so that the utility model does not require an additional guiding mechanism, thereby saving production costs.
[0032] Combine Figure 5As shown, the lifting device 2 includes:
[0033] The first screw motor 21 includes a first screw 211, a first guide rod 212 is coaxially fixed to the top of the first screw 211, a first shaft sleeve 23 is sleeved on the outer side of the first guide rod 212, and the second screw motor 22 includes
[0034] A second screw rod 221 is coaxially fixed to the top of the second screw rod 221 with a second guide rod 222. A second sleeve 24 is sleeved on the outer side of the second guide rod 222. The first sleeve 23 and the second sleeve 24 are used to constrain the first screw rod 211 and the second screw rod 221 respectively. The first screw rod 211 and the second screw rod 221 are both cylindrical, and the first guide rod 212 and the second guide rod 222 are both prismatic, so that the first screw rod 211 and the second screw rod 221 can only move along their axis but cannot rotate.
[0035] The first shaft sleeve 23 and the second shaft sleeve 24 are fixed by a connecting rod 25. The connecting rod 25 is a three-section structure and is respectively located between the frame 1, the first shaft sleeve 23 and the second shaft sleeve 24. The long axis direction of the connecting rod 25 is consistent with the forward direction of the self-propelled vehicle. There is a through groove at the center of the fixing plate 26 and the through direction of the groove is the same as the forward direction of the self-propelled vehicle. The connecting rod 25 passes through the groove at the center of the fixing plate 26 and is connected to the front and rear sides of the frame 1. There are through holes at the four corners of the fixing plate 26. Bolts 27 pass through the through holes at the four corners of the fixing plate 26 to fix the fixing plate 26 to the front and rear sides of the frame 1. On the side, the bolt 27 passes through the frame 1 and extends to the outside of the frame 1. The nut 28 tightens the bolt 27 on the surface outside the frame 1. The first guide rod 212 and the second guide rod 222 are guiding mechanisms for each other. The first screw motor 21 can independently drive the first screw rod 211 to move up and down, and the second screw motor 22 can independently drive the second screw rod 221 to move up and down. The prismatic guide rod ensures that the screw rod can only move axially relative to the shaft sleeve and cannot rotate. The bolts 27 on the four corners of the fixing plate 26 ensure that the fixing plate 26 will not slide or rotate. The fixing method of the bolts 27 and the nuts 28 is convenient for later maintenance and replacement.
[0036] Combine Figure 6 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8As shown, the mowing device 3 includes: a first motor 31, a first motor compartment 32, a turntable 33 and a wire rope 34.

There is a through hole at the center of the bottom shell of the first motor compartment 32. The output shaft of the first motor 31 passes through the through hole of the bottom shell of the first motor compartment 32. The output shaft of the first motor 31 is perpendicular to the forward direction of the self-propelled vehicle. There is a blind hole in the center of the upper surface of the turntable 33 in the direction of its own short axis. The output shaft of the first motor 31 is inserted into the blind hole at the center of the upper surface of the turntable 33. The turntable 33 can rotate around the output shaft of the motor. There are three channels inside the center plane of the turntable 33. The plane where the channels are located is parallel to the forward direction of the self-propelled vehicle. The first channel and the second channel The first ends of the two channels are on the side of the turntable 33, the first channel and the second channel are respectively located on both sides of the blind hole in the center of the turntable 33 and the first channel is parallel to the second channel, the two ends of the third channel are respectively connected to the second end of the first channel and the second end of the second channel, and the third channel is not connected to the blind hole in the turntable 33. The first channel, the second channel and the third channel are combined to form a through hole on the internal plane of the turntable 33, and the wire rope 34 passes through the through hole inside the rotating shaft 43 and extends to the through hole openings on both sides of the turntable 33. When the first motor 31 drives the turntable 33 to rotate at high speed, the turntable 33 will drive the wire rope 34 connected thereto to rotate at high speed. The high-speed rotating wire rope 34 will quickly cut the weeds on the soil. The wire rope 34 is fixed through the through hole inside the turntable 33 to facilitate later maintenance and replacement.
[0037] Combine Figure 9 、 Figure 10 As shown, the tilling device 4 includes: a second motor 41, a second motor compartment 42, a rotating shaft 43 and a rotary blade 44.

The center of the second motor 41 has a through hole running through the direction of its own long axis. The long axis of the second motor 41 remains perpendicular to the movement direction of the self-propelled vehicle. The center of the second motor compartment 42 has a through hole running through the direction of its own long axis. The through hole of the second motor 41 is opposite to the through hole of the second motor compartment 42. The rotating shaft 43 passes through the second motor 41 and the second motor compartment 42 respectively. 2 is provided with a central through hole and extends equidistantly at both ends. The rotating shaft 43 can rotate around its own long axis. Two rotary tilling blades 44 are fixed to the left and right ends of the rotating shaft 43 respectively. The two rotary tilling blades 44 at each end are fixed vertically relative to each other. Each rotary tilling blade 44 has curved flanks on both sides. The blades of the flanks gradually narrow into a trapezoidal blade. When the second motor 41 drives the rotating shaft 43 to rotate, the rotary tilling blades 44 at both ends of the rotating shaft 43 rotate relative to each other at the same time and turn over the soil. The curved flanks facilitate better cutting into the soil and reducing resistance during rotation. The trapezoidal flank blades can more effectively cut and turn over the soil.
[0038] When the self-propelled vehicle moves to the weed position, the controller controls the first screw motor 21 of the lifting device 2 to drive the first screw rod 211 to move downward to lower the mowing device 3 to the vicinity of the weeds. The first motor 31 in the mowing device 3 drives the turntable 33 to rotate at high speed about its own short axis and drives the wire rope 34 to rotate at high speed. When the high-speed rotating wire rope 34 quickly cuts the weeds, the controller controls the first screw motor 21 to drive the first screw rod 211 to move upward to restore the mowing device 3 to its initial position. The controller controls the self-propelled vehicle to move to the position where the tilling device 4 is aligned with the weeds. The controller controls the second screw motor 22 to drive the second screw rod 221 to move downward to lower the tilling device 4 to the weed position. The second motor 41 in the tilling device 4 drives the rotating shaft 43 to rotate about its own long axis and drives the rotary blades 44 at both ends of the rotating shaft 43 to rotate. The rotating rotary blades 44 turn the soil over and remove the roots of the weeds. After the weeds are removed, the controller controls the second screw motor 22 to drive the second screw rod 221 to move upward to restore the tilling device 4 to its initial position.
