The invention discloses a single-motor driving device for sequential picking of
kiwi fruits and a control method, and belongs to the technical field of agricultural
mechanical equipment. The single-motor driving device comprises a telescopic arm
system, a single driving device, a sequential action executing mechanism, a
visual recognition system and a fruit collecting device; the telescopic arm
system is of a three-stage nested structure and is provided with a damping mechanism, the single driving device comprises a motor, a winding drum and a driving
rope, and the sequence action executing mechanism comprises a thread-sliding sleeve composite transmission mechanism, a rigid-flexible
coupling tail end device and a
pipe wall folding area; through combination of a damping grading driving mechanism, a thread-sliding sleeve composite transmission mechanism and a rigid-flexible
coupling tail end device, a single
rope is controlled through forward and reverse rotation of a single motor, and a complete picking sequence such as ejection opening and arm extending positioning is automatically completed. According to the single-motor driving device for sequential picking of
kiwi fruits and the control method provided by the invention, intelligent
sequential control of terminal action priority is realized, multiple driving sources are not needed, and the complexity and the cost of the system are reduced.
