Design of Tracked Agricultural Robots for Apple Orchards

摘要

To solve the problems of heavy protection tasks and low operational intelligence in China's apple production, this paper designs a crawler-type agricultural robot dedicated to the apple orchard, which is easy to obtain growth information and plant protection of fruit trees in apple orchards. Based on the working environment of the agricultural robot, the parameter indexes are designed; the motion model of the lifting sprayer is established and the length dimension of the lifting frame is obtained; the parameter requirements of the robot's driving motor are derived based on its force and motion analysis; the control system of the robot is designed using the control flow chart. The simulation results show that the structure and control system of the robot meet the design requirements. The design is also of reference value for the design of other fruit tree protection robots.
