Abstract: A ground-contour-following autonomous obstacle avoidance mower for hillside orchards and a control method thereof are provided to achieve multi-angle cutting and low energy consumption in mowing operation through cooperation of a push rod motor and a connecting-rod rotating pair. A connecting rod is arranged and forms a flexible mechanism together with an upper base bearing, a lower base bearing and a base-connecting unthreaded shaft. The flexible mechanism interacts with the push rod motor to achieve ground contour following operation, so that the mower as a whole can conduct ground-contour-following mowing operation on a complex orchard terrain, with a better cutting effect than that of a traditional mower.

Abstract: The present invention provides a ground-contour-following autonomous obstacle avoidance mower for hillside orchards and a control method thereof. Through cooperation of a push rod motor and a rotating pair, multi-angle cutting is achieved, and energy consumption needed by mowing operation is reduced. A connecting rod is arranged and forms a flexible mechanism together with an upper base bearing, a lower base bearing and a base-connecting unthreaded shaft. The flexible mechanism interacts with the push rod motor to achieve ground contour following operation, so that the mower as a whole can conduct ground-contour-following mowing operation on a complex orchard terrain, with a better cutting effect than that of a traditional mower. The use of a right-angle bypassing obstacle avoidance mode realizes precise obstacle avoidance of the mower, and achieves the operation purpose of not excessively relying on operators.

Abstract: An apparatus for monitoring comprehensive growth condition of potted lettuce consists of a polarized hyperspectral imaging system and a 3D laser scanning system. The polarized hyperspectral imaging system includes a control system, a dual-coordinate sample holder, an image acquisition system, and a light source system, and the polarized hyperspectral imaging system detects water and fertilizer stress in lettuce by polarized hyperspectral multi-dimensional reflection imaging of characteristics on a canopy/leaf scale. The 3D laser scanning system detects morphological characteristics such as the biomass, stem diameter, plant height, and leaf area of lettuce.

Abstract: An automatic degradable sphere distributing device for an unmanned aerial vehicle, relating to the technical field of plant protection mechanism. Said distributing device comprises a ranking portion, an adjustment portion and a distributing portion. The ranking portion consists of a rotating shaft (2), blades (1a, 1b), a rolling bearing (12), a sphere cabinet (3), a coupling (9b), a motor support (11b) and a motor (10b). The adjustment portion consists of a housing (501), a bevel gear transmission group (502, 503) and adjustment sheets (504a, 504b, 504c). The distributing portion consists of circular wheels (8a, 8b), a spur gear group (6a, 6b), a guide rod (13), a coupling (9a), a motor support (11a) and a motor (10a). Said distributing device may rank the degradable spheres vertically in sequence, being adaptable to spheres of different volumes, being highly universal, and being capable of distributing the spheres at intervals, with high precision and automation degree.

Abstract: A charging device of an automatic cruise platform for a greenhouse comprises a power monitoring module, an information transmission module and a sensor module, which are located on a movement monitoring platform (25), and a ground pressure sensor module, a charging module, an information receiving module (20), an information collection module (21), a control module (22), an AC-DC conversion module (23), and a power control module (24), which are located on a smart charging device (33). The device can automatically return to be charged at a cruise detection interval of a movement platform when the electric quantity is lower than a threshold, thereby improving the working efficiency and automation degree of a movement monitoring platform, reducing the labor management cost, and meanwhile greatly improving the reliability and safety of a charging docking process and facility power consumption.

Abstract: A smart mobile detection platform for a greenhouse comprises a frame, a front suspension assembly, a rear suspension assembly, a power assembly and a drive assembly for driving a mobile platform to move, a steering system for controlling the mobile platform to steer, an automatic-cruising pose-detection sensor module needed for automatic mobile platform cruising, a greenhouse environment and crop detection image sensor module (29), a signal collection module (30) for collecting a sensor signal, a central control system for controlling the mobile platform to move, an information transmission module, and a power module for supplying power to the whole mobile platform. By means of a central control system, a mobile platform completes automatic inspection of the greenhouse environment and crop growth information, and an automatic charging device provides supplemental electric energy to the mobile platform, thereby improving detection efficiency and accuracy.
