It consists of an engine, transmission, walking mechanism, steering system, hydraulic suspension, power output, electrical instruments, driving controls, and towing systems or devices. During use, it is prone to issues such as delayed braking, which can lead to collisions with obstacles or people.

[0003] For example, a tractor obstacle avoidance device based on laser ranging, with authorization announcement number "CN219201927U", uses a data comparator to set a safe distance threshold. If the distance between the detected obstacle and the tractor is less than the safe distance threshold, an audible and visual alarm sounds, reminding the operator to control the tractor to avoid the obstacle, greatly improving the obstacle avoidance effect. However, this device is not convenient for quick disassembly and protection of the ranging equipment. When the tractor is in use, the tractor's front guard plate may be bumped or damaged, and the tractor needs to be disassembled and repaired if damaged. The device is not convenient for quick disassembly and protection, making its use inconvenient. Utility Model Content

The two sides of the tractor front guard plate are fixedly connected to the two ends of the grille. The outer wall of the grille is provided with a protective device. The inner wall of the grille is fixedly connected to a box. The inner wall of the box is in contact with a laser ranging module. The outer wall of the laser ranging module is electrically connected to a power line. One end of the power line passes through the box.

[0007] Preferably, the protective device includes through-hole blocks and straight plates. One end of each through-hole block on both sides is fixedly connected to the grid plate.

[0012] This utility model proposes an obstacle avoidance device for a tractor based on laser ranging. The advantages are as follows: Through the cooperation of the protective device and the grid plate, the operator places the laser ranging module inside the housing. Simultaneously, the operator pushes the two straight plates upwards, allowing them to be inserted into the frames on both sides.

The two tractor front guard plates 1 are fixedly connected to the two ends of the grille 3 respectively. The outer wall of the grille 3 is provided with a protective device 2. The inner wall of the grille 3 is fixedly connected with a housing 10. The inner wall of the housing 10 is provided with heat insulation cotton to reduce the impact of engine heat on the laser ranging module 5. The inner wall of the housing 10 is in contact with the laser ranging module 5. The laser ranging module 5 includes a three-axis accelerometer, a three-axis magnetic sensor, a barometric pressure sensor, a data comparator, a counter, a central processing unit, a gyroscope, and an audible and visual alarm. The outer wall of the laser ranging module 5 is electrically connected to a power line 9, and one end of the power line 9 passes through the housing 10.

[0022] The outer walls of both straight plates 204 are provided with grooves, and the outer walls of both straight plates 204 are provided with two threaded holes. The front end of the laser ranging module 5 is fixedly connected to the laser rangefinder 4. The front end of the laser ranging module 5 is provided with a circular groove. The frame 203 is threadedly connected to the first bolt 6 through the threaded hole on its surface. One end of the first bolt 6 is inserted into the groove on the surface of the straight plate 204. The surface of the straight plate 204 is provided with one groove and two threaded holes. The outer walls of both straight plates 204 are respectively attached to the two ends of the protective frame 7. The protective frame 7 is threadedly connected to the straight plates 204 on both sides through multiple second bolts 8.

[0024] Working principle:

[0025] When using a tractor equipped with laser rangefinding:

[0026] Installation process:

[0027] The tractor front guard plate 1 in this device needs to be installed on the chassis to protect the engine. The operator places the laser ranging module 5 inside the housing 10. At the same time, the operator connects the power cable 9 to the tractor's onboard battery through a transformer to power the laser ranging module 5. Simultaneously, the operator pushes the two straight plates 204 upwards so that they can be inserted into the two side frames 203. The operator then inserts two first bolts 6 into the frame 203 and rotates the first bolts 6 so that one end of the first bolt 6 engages with the groove on the surface of the straight plate 204, fixing the position of the two straight plates 204. At the same time, the operator installs the protective frame 7 onto the surface of the two straight plates 204 using four second bolts 8 to protect the laser ranging module 5.

[0028] Usage process:

[0029] While the tractor is moving forward, the laser rangefinder 4 emits pulsed laser light to detect the distance between obstacles and the tractor body in real time. The laser emitter in the laser emission system emits laser light, which is then transmitted to the central processing unit via the laser receiving system. Simultaneously, a counter counts the number of clock pulses entering during the time period of light pulse emission and reception. The laser light emitted by the laser emitter is calibrated and modulated by a beam expander collimation system and a spatial light modulator. When the emitted laser light encounters an obstacle, it is reflected back, filtered by an optical wave filter module, and then converted into an electrical signal by a photoelectric converter before being transmitted to the central processing unit. Meanwhile, the three axes... Accelerometers, triaxial magnetic sensors, and air pressure sensors monitor the tractor's driving status in real time. The detected speed, acceleration, and direction are transmitted to the central processing unit (CPU) via a data comparator and a counter. After receiving signals from the photoelectric converter and the counter, the CPU analyzes the driving speed and the number of clock pulses entering during the time period of light pulse emission and reception. It calculates the relative distance between the tractor and the obstacle and transmits the obtained data in real time to the data comparator and the display screen (which can be installed in a position convenient for the driver to observe). By observing the display screen, the operator can effectively avoid collisions.

[0030] Although the present invention has been illustrated and described with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes in form and detail are possible within the scope of the claims.
