Description

A kind of arm end effector
Technical field
The invention belongs to agricultural robot technical field, be specifically related to a kind of arm end effector.
Background technology
Within 2013, Chinese orchard sown area is 1113.95 ten thousand hectares, fruit total output 200,000,000 tons, and 2014 more than 2.1 hundred million tons.China's Vegetable cultivated area more than 300,000,000 mu in 2013, output 7.06 hundred million tons.Although the output of fruit, vegetables is very high, in harvesting, intermediate links, rotten loss rate, up to 20-30%, loses more than 2,000 hundred million yuan every year.Because China's agricultural modernization level is on the low side, add harvesting, circulation substantially by artificial, China's fruit, vegetables industry cost in harvesting, intermediate links is sharply risen, also causes huge waste simultaneously, have influence on the selling price of fruit, victual.Picking mechanical arm end effector of the present invention, can pluck at agricultural product, intermediate links, clamping lighter in weight, neat appearance, the little fruit of overall dimensions, vegetables.
Harvesting, classification, packaging are during agricultural product are produced, and the most consuming time, the link of requiring great effort most, belongs to labour-intensive operation.Along with Chinese society's urbanization, aging process, labor cost significantly promotes, agricultural workforce's unbalance of structure, and prices of the means of agricultural production goes up in addition, and the price relative advantage of Chinese fruit and vegetable food declines.The standardization of fruits and vegetables industry, large-scale production, can improve quality, scale, output capacity, productivity ratio that fruits and vegetables are produced, improves the competitiveness of China's Agricultural.Therefore, Low-cost, efficiently fruit picking, transporter are imperative.In the harvesting of agricultural product, first to be gripped, could realize cutting handle, or low-angle overturn harvesting object fast, make it come off; The links such as agricultural product transhipment, classification, packaging also need a large amount of clamping devices, to reduce labour intensity and cost, raise the efficiency and quality.
In the automatic harvesting of small-sized, lightweight agricultural product, running, classification, processing, packaging process, require that manipulator fast, efficiently, accurately, move with low-angle upset, small distance.Conventional robot end effector, mostly adopts the mentality of designing of industrial robot, and more regular, reliability is high, but under natural environment, lacks the flexibility of transferring to other use among a small circle, inefficiency, and cost is higher simultaneously; Part have employed the picking mechanical arm end effector of air pump, because gas suction is in fruit, victual top layer, can reduce the surface quality of fruit, vegetables, increases loss; Utilize steel wire rope, spring assembly, control the arm end effector of paw folding, due to repetitive operation, can cause fatigue fracture, service behaviour is unstable.
In the automatic harvesting of small-sized, lightweight agricultural product, running, classification, packaging process, required end effector quantity is more, not high to the relative requirement of operation precision, repeatable accuracy, and higher to the requirement of cost control.Therefore, be necessary to develop some novel, the end effector of low cost, to improve agricultural product autonomous harvesting, running, working (machining) efficiency further.
