Description

Picking end effector with picking head capable of being replaced conveniently
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of intelligent picking, in particular to a picking end effector with a picking head capable of being replaced conveniently.
Background
At present, most of domestic fruit picking still needs to be finished manually. The manual picking mode has lower labor efficiency and longer labor consumption, and for picking fruits with shorter seasons, the manual picking mode is usually not as long as finishing picking all the fruits. And for some fruits growing at a high position, picking workers can pick the fruits only by climbing the escalator, so that certain dangers are realized. In addition, manual picking requires a large amount of labor, but as a large amount of labor is transferred to urban factories and population is gradually aged, available labor is gradually reduced, the price of picking employees is increased year by year, fruit picking costs are increased, and the demand for automated fruit picking equipment is also increased.
In the field of fruit picking automation, the current researches on picking end effectors mainly include an auxiliary manual type, a vibration impact type and a manipulator grasping type. The auxiliary manual picking robot provides a lifting platform moving in three degrees of freedom in space for workers, and the workers stand on the lifting platform to pick. The traditional processes of manually picking, climbing ladders, transferring ladders and the like are omitted, the picking efficiency is greatly improved, and the picking machine still depends on manual work. Vibration impact type picking robot directly vibrates and impacts the fruit trees, so that the fruits fall off and are collected. The mode has great damage to fruits, which is not beneficial to preservation and affects sale due to damaged fruit. The manipulator grasping type is the choice of most of the current researches, and adopts the end structure imitating human fingers to grasp the target fruit in a way imitating human picking. Two main picking modes are adopted for separating target fruits from fruit stalks, one mode is that the fruits are directly picked by twisting and drawing after being gripped by a manipulator; the other is to cut the fruit stalks by an additional blade, laser or electrified metal wire. The mode is very close to a manual picking mode, so that nondestructive picking can be well realized, but the picking steps are also complicated due to the fact that fruit grabbing needs to be accurately positioned, so that the picking efficiency is low, and the mode is the largest factor limiting the practicability of the picking machine.
Domestic invention patent application No. CN201580075405.4 discloses an end effector for robotic harvesting, which specifically discloses an end effector comprising a vacuum generating subsystem and a connection to the vacuum generating subsystem.

Domestic invention patent application No. CN201910418059.5 discloses an end effector for robot harvesting, which specifically discloses an end effector comprising an air inlet, a vacuum suction port connected with a vacuum generating system, and a fruit drop outlet at the lower end. The fruit picking device utilizes the annular air flow generated in the buffer cavity to generate upward lifting force on the fruits to resist the action of free falling bodies when the fruits fall down after being picked, reduces the probability that the falling parabola of the fruits is too long in the horizontal direction and collides with the extending part at the rear end to damage the rear wall, and reduces the fruit damage caused in the picking falling process.
Although the picking head of the picking end effector adopts the design that the size of the picking opening can be adjusted in a self-adaptive manner within a certain range, the self-adaptive adjustment range is not large, and is generally only suitable for the possible size difference of fruits of the same kind and the same variety, and the self-adaptive adjustment range is not enough for the fruits of different kinds or different varieties.
In order to further improve the applicability of the device to different types of fruits, a picking end effector with a picking head capable of being replaced conveniently is designed, and the picking end effector has better adaptability to the picking of different types or different varieties of fruits. The picking head structure of the end effector is separated from the end effector to be used as an independent part and adopts uniform threaded connection, so that the picking head of the end effector can be simply detached and replaced, and meanwhile, the cleaning work of a negative pressure cavity is facilitated. Through the multiple picking heads with different picking openings and the same threaded connection structure, the end effector can select the picking head with the proper picking opening size according to the different types of picked fruits, and the picking success rate is improved.

The specific working process of the invention is as follows: when the picking stage is carried out, the fruit dropping door 8 at the bottom of the end effector is closed under the driving of the fruit dropping door driver 9, the external air extractor starts to extract air subsequently, negative pressure is generated in the negative pressure cavity through the air extraction opening 12, and fruits are sucked into the end effector through the picking head 1 and are contacted with the straight pipe buffer layer 3, so that the first-stage extrusion friction buffering is realized; straight tube buffer layer 3 wraps up with certain pressure to the fruit surface to for the fruit provides with the reverse frictional force of direction of motion, reduced the speed of fruit, this collision damage that also can effectively reduce fruit and inner wall, straight tube buffer layer 3 can make effective air inlet area reduce simultaneously, has increased the adsorption affinity to the fruit, and promote the effect that negative pressure utilization ratio was in order to reach the reduction energy consumption. Because the suction force of the fruits in the end effector is larger than the friction force provided by the straight tube buffer layer 3, the fruits have certain initial speed when moving into the buffer cavity 5. When the external air extractor works, after the internal gas of the negative pressure cavity 4 is extracted by the air extraction opening 12, negative pressure is generated in the negative pressure cavity 4, and the gas in the buffer cavity 5 can only enter the negative pressure cavity 4 through the ventilation opening 16 due to the obstruction of the separation wall 17, so that unique air flow is formed. This gas flow can provide an ascending effort in the slant for the fruit that gets into in the cushion chamber 5 from the straight tube of picking head 1, can slow down the horizontal velocity of fruit on the horizontal direction, can slow down the speed of freely falling body on vertical direction to can effectively must prevent that the fruit from leading to the fact inevitable collision damage to the inner wall of cushion chamber 5 because of too big initial velocity in whereabouts process, this process has just realized the buffering of second level air current. After the fruit has passed through the second grade buffering, will fall on the terminal concave type buffering face 14 of cushion chamber 5, make the speed of fruit in the horizontal direction gradually reduce to the minimum with the slight collision of concave type buffering face 14 to slowly roll along concave type buffering face 14 and fall to falling fruit door 8 and go out, this process can prevent effectively that the fruit from leading to the fact unavoidable collision damage because of freely falling body and cushion chamber 5 bottom from strikeing the back, has realized tertiary collision buffering. At this point, the drop door 8 is opened under the control of the drop door driver 9, the fruit leaves the end effector and enters the collection system, and the drop door 8 is closed again to maintain the tightness inside the buffer chamber, and this completes the fruit picking process.
The yielding material that the straight tube buffer layer 3 adopted can provide the self-adaptation adjustment ability to a certain extent, but such self-adaptation adjustment range is not big, generally only is applicable to the size difference that the fruit of same kind and same variety probably exists, and in the real-time of picking different kinds of fruit that the diameter range difference is great, current picking end effector must change whole end effector, so not only consume a large amount of manpower and materials, still greatly increased picking cost. In fact, the size of the picking opening is adjusted only according to the size of the picking head of the picking end effector, so that the whole end effector does not need to be replaced, and only the picking head 1 and the negative pressure shell 2 are designed to be separable, and only the picking heads 1 of different models need to be replaced. In the design, the picking heads 1 with different calibers can be designed according to actual requirements, and the combination of the whole device can be completed only by screwing the picking head thread 11 of the picking head 1 with a proper model with the end effector thread 10 when in application.
