Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. The terminology used herein in the description of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and/or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
In the embodiment of the invention, the application scene of the spraying equipment provided with the folding arm module can be as follows: in a pesticide spraying scene in hilly areas. It will be appreciated that in the prior art, in the pesticide spraying scenario for crops in hilly areas, the spraying is typically performed by unmanned aerial vehicles, or manually. But neither of these two modes of spraying is satisfactory. For example, unmanned aerial vehicle sprays and can appear spraying the phenomenon in place, and the manual work sprays and can appear spraying inefficiency, sprays the pesticide poisoning risk that leads to and is big, and the cost of labor is high.
Based on this, provide the spraying equipment of folding arm module of folding function in this embodiment, can combine unmanned aerial vehicle to spray with artifical spraying again, be applied to the farm environment of complicated topography such as hilly topography, for example, in the orchard environment of hilly topography to solve artifical spraying inefficiency and unmanned aerial vehicle and spray the problem that the precision is not high.
The technical scheme of the invention is further elaborated below by referring to the drawings in the specification and the specific embodiments.
Referring to fig. 1 to 6, an embodiment of the present invention provides a folding arm module 1, the folding arm module 1 is disposed on a spraying device for spraying crops in hilly areas, and includes: n arms, wherein the N arms have an extended state and a contracted state;
the folding arm module 1 further includes:
the camera module 11 is used for collecting the topographic image information of the hilly area within the preset range of the folding arm module 1;
the processing module 12 is connected with the camera module 11 and is used for determining the telescopic state of the folding arm module according to the topographic image information, wherein in the extending state, the joint between two adjacent arm rods is a first preset angle which is different from 0, and in the contracting state, the joint between two adjacent arm rods is a second preset angle which is equal to 0;
a driving module 13 is arranged between two adjacent arm rods, and the driving module 13 is connected with the processing module 12 and is used for determining a driving state according to the telescopic state; the different driving states correspondingly drive the adjacent arm rods to have different moving directions and moving speeds.
It should be noted that the N arm levers have an extended state, and an extended state is provided between any two adjacent arm levers in the N arm levers; the N arm bars have a contracted state, and any two adjacent arm bars in the N arm bars are in the contracted state.
For example, referring back to fig. 1, as shown in fig. 1, the folding bar of the folding arm module 1 has an extended state. For example, referring to fig. 2 again, as shown in fig. 2, the folding bar of the folding arm module 1 has a contracted state.
The camera module 11 here comprises a binocular camera, or a monocular camera. In practical applications, the camera module 11 may be mounted on the arm of the folding arm module 1, or the end of the arm; the system can be used for collecting the topographic image information of the hilly area within the preset range of the folding arm module 1 on the one hand, and can be used for collecting the crop image information of the crops within the preset range of the folding arm module 1 on the other hand. It can be understood that the topographic image information can be used to determine what walking state the spraying device mounted with the folding arm module 1 is in, whether an uphill slope, a downhill slope, etc. are required; the crop image information can be used for judging whether the folding arm module 1 sprays nearby crops or not, so that the folding state among all arm rods of the folding arm can be adjusted according to the judging result of whether the folding arm module sprays, and automatic spraying is realized.
The driving module 13 here may include a motor, which includes but is not limited to a permanent magnet dc motor, or a stepper motor, a push rod, etc., and in any case, under the operation of the motor, can drive the adjacent two arms to move, so as to change the presentation angle of the connection between the adjacent two arms, that is, change the telescopic state between the adjacent two arms.
The processing module 12 may be an upper computer and a lower computer, and the lower computer may be installed in the folding arm module 1 and connected with the camera module 11 and the driving module 13 in the folding arm module 1. The upper computer is used for data processing and can be a computer and the like. The lower computer can be used as a transmitting transfer station of the instruction, wherein the upper computer and the lower computer can be connected through 485, a network and the like.
For example, the upper computer may be Hai Si H3519A, and the lower computer may be Rui SA 4M2. The arm lever in the folding arm module 1 may be a gantry structure.
The moving direction and the moving speed refer to the moving direction and the moving speed of the arm lever driven by the motor. The driving state can be determined according to the telescopic state and the initial state, so that the moving direction and the moving speed of the motor-driven arm lever are obtained. It will be appreciated that in some embodiments, the movement speed may be constant and the movement direction may be based on a comparison of the telescoping state and the initial state. For example, if the initial state of the folding arm module 1 is an extended state, the topographic image information indicates that the folding arm module 1 needs to be in a contracted state, and the moving direction is the direction of opposite movement between two adjacent arm levers; in contrast, if the initial state of the folding arm module 1 is the contracted state, the topographic image information indicates that the folding arm module 1 needs to be in the extended state, and the moving direction is the direction in which the adjacent two arm levers move in opposite directions. Of course, the direction of movement may be non-directional when the initial state is the same as the final desired telescoping state. Of course, in other embodiments, the movement speed may be intelligently changed, and may be determined by topographical image information, for example.
In the above-mentioned embodiment, compare prior art, need the manual work to spray the crops of hilly area, perhaps utilize unmanned aerial vehicle to spray, owing to adopted the folding arm module that can stretch out and draw back automatically to consider unmanned aerial vehicle can not spray the blade back of crops, also can reduce simultaneously that the manual work sprays the spraying inefficiency that arouses, spray risks such as poisoning. Therefore, the folding arm module installed on the spraying equipment can ensure the spraying efficiency and the spraying precision, thereby realizing safe and efficient spraying of crops in hilly areas.
In some embodiments, the processing module 12 is further configured to:
determining whether the spraying equipment needs to walk to the next hilly zone according to the topographic image information;
and determining that the telescopic state of the folding arm module is a contracted state in response to the spraying equipment moving to the next hilly zone.
In the hilly area scene, since each hilly area rises according to a step, the spraying device sprays along each hilly area. When one hilly belt climbs up the other hilly belt, if the folding arm module is in an extended state, the folding arm module is easy to damage. Based on the above, according to the topographic image information, it is determined whether the spraying device needs to travel to the next hilly area, and the telescopic state of the folding arm module is adjusted to be the contracted state.
So, in this embodiment, through determining whether spray equipment need walk under the condition of next hilly area, can confirm that the flexible state of folding arm module is the shrink state to let folding arm module can accomplish under the shrink state and walk next hilly area, thereby can reduce the problem that the folding arm module is easy to damage because the topography is complicated in the spray equipment walking process.
Illustratively, the determining whether the spraying device needs to walk to the next hilly zone according to the topographic image information includes: determining whether the spraying equipment walks to the end part of the current hilly zone according to the topographic image information; if the end of the hilly zone is reached, it is determined that the spraying device needs to travel to the next hilly zone.
Illustratively, determining whether the spraying device walks to the end of the current hilly zone based on the topographic image information comprises: according to the topographic image information, determining gray information in the topographic image information; if the gray information indicates that a region with gray change larger than a change threshold exists; and if the region with the gray level change larger than the change threshold value is determined to be the end part of the hilly zone according to the deep learning model, determining that the spraying equipment walks to the end part of the current hilly zone. So, can discern intelligently whether need shrink the armed lever of folding arm module to reduce the damage to the armed lever in the spraying equipment walking process.
Referring again to fig. 1-5, each of the N arms includes two ends;
the first end of the 1 st arm rod is fixedly arranged, the second end of the 1 st arm rod is rotatably connected with the first end of the 2 nd arm rod, and the like, the second end of the N-1 st arm rod is rotatably connected with the first end of the N th arm rod, wherein N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1. Therefore, each arm rod can be contracted, and the collision damage of crops on the arm rods which cannot be contracted in the walking process of the spraying equipment, particularly in the climbing and descending process of hilly lands, is reduced.
In other embodiments, referring to fig. 1, the driving module 1 further includes:
the signal sensor is arranged at the joint of the second end of the (N-1) -th arm rod and the first end of the (N) -th arm rod and is used for converting the telescopic state into a numerical signal capable of representing the sub telescopic state of the (N-1) -th arm rod and the (N) -th arm rod; and determining the driving state according to the numerical value information.
The signal sensor may be a metal proximity switch, for example. When the metal approaches, a high level is output and indicated by a value signal 1, and otherwise, a low level is output and indicated by a value signal 0. Illustratively, if retraction is desired, it may be denoted by 0, and if extension is desired, it may be denoted by 1.
The sub-telescopic state is the telescopic state of the pointer to the (N-1) th arm lever and the (N) th arm lever.
Thus, by converting the telescopic state into the digital signal, the signal is simplified, and the corresponding telescopic operation and the like are conveniently read and executed based on the digital signal.
In other embodiments, the processing module 12 further comprises: determining signal generation time sequence information of N signal sensors according to the telescopic state; transmitting a control signal to the signal sensor corresponding to the time sequence information according to the time sequence information;
the signal sensor is further configured to convert the telescopic state into a numerical signal capable of representing the sub telescopic states of the N-1 th arm and the N-th arm in response to receiving the control signal.
Here, the signal generation timing information of the N signal sensors means that each signal sensor has an own priority. For example, referring back to fig. 1 to 5, the third signal sensor 133 has a higher priority than the second signal sensor 132 and than the first signal sensor 131. In this way, according to the priorities of the N signal sensors, the signal generation timing information of the N signal sensors can be determined, so that the respective arms of the arm module 1 can be sequentially extended or contracted. Of course, in some embodiments, the priority of the signal sensor may be determined based on the captured topographical image information, and in some cases, the priority of the second signal sensor 132 may be higher than the priority of the third signal sensor 133, as an example.
In other embodiments, referring to fig. 1 again, as shown in fig. 1, the N arms are four arms;
the driving module 13 is further configured to compare a first number of first numerical signals used to represent the extended state with a second number of second numerical signals used to represent the extended state in the initial state in the N numerical signals; responsive to the first number being greater than the second number, determining the actuation state to actuate the N arms to extend; and/or, responsive to the first number being less than the second number, determining the actuation state to actuate retraction of the N arms; and/or, in response to the first number being equal to the second number, determining that the driving state is a stopped driving state.
In practical application, comparing the number of the sensors of the expansion group to be expanded with the number of the initial state of the sensors of the expansion group to be expanded, and if A is more than B, confirming that the folding arm of the spraying machine needs to be expanded; if A < B, recognizing that the folding arm of the spraying machine needs to be contracted; if a=b, confirm that the spray machine folding arm does not need to act; when the folding arm of the spraying machine needs to be stretched, according to the priority of the stretching group sensor, if the state with low priority in the state of the stretching group sensor needs to be reached is the stretching state, and the state with high priority is not the stretching state, the method is not executed, and the abnormal state is fed back to the upper computer. If the state of the expansion group sensor needs to be normal, confirming whether the actual state of the high priority in the expansion group sensor is shrinkage, and if the actual state of the high priority in the expansion group sensor is expansion, if the actual state is not the expansion, feeding back an abnormality to an upper computer, otherwise, normally expanding; when the folding arm of the spraying machine needs to be contracted, according to the priority of the contraction group sensor, if the state with low priority in the state of the contraction group sensor needs to be reached is a contracted state, and the state with high priority is not the contracted state, the operation is not performed, and the abnormality is fed back to the upper computer. If the shrink group sensor needs to reach the normal state, confirming whether the actual state of the high priority in the shrink group sensor is expansion, and if the actual state of the high priority in the shrink group sensor is contraction, if the actual state is not execution, feeding back an abnormality to the upper computer, otherwise, contracting normally.
