Description

Orchard targeting air-assisted sprayer based on laser radar and spraying method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of agricultural machinery, in particular to an orchard targeting air-assisted sprayer based on a laser radar and a spraying method thereof.
Background
In recent years, as the population ages, heavy spraying operations have become a major factor affecting orchard management. Currently, in order to overcome this problem, some robots for orchard work have been developed, but most of these robots are aimed at picking and harvesting fruits, and there are relatively few robots for orchard spraying. Most of orchard pesticide spraying robots are suitable for on-demand regulation and control of the spraying dosage, and few orchard pesticide spraying robots supporting on-demand regulation and control of dosage and wind power are provided. In the process of spraying the pesticide to the fruit trees, if the wind power is too small, insufficient deposition in the fruit tree canopy bores is caused, and the wind power is too large, so that the pesticide liquid is blown out of the fruit tree canopy, and pesticide drift is caused, so that ecological environmental pollution of farmlands is caused.
Meanwhile, with the development of a sensor and an automatic control technology, the existing automatic target-targeting sprayer can selectively apply pesticides to targets according to the existence of targets and the change of target characteristics, so that the attachment rate of pesticides on crops is effectively improved, sedimentation of pesticides in non-target areas is obviously reduced, better pesticide application effects are obtained, however, the existing automatic target-targeting sprayer has single function, mainly aims at target regulation and control of the dosage during spraying, and does not relate to target regulation and control of wind power.
Although some sprayers with automatic target wind power regulation and control functions are developed at present, wind power regulation is realized by changing the areas of an air inlet and an air outlet and the rotating speed of a fan, the sprayers can only singly regulate the wind speed or the wind quantity, and in practical application, the wind speed and the wind quantity have a strong coupling relation, namely when the area of the air outlet is independently regulated, the area of the air outlet is reduced, so that the wind quantity is reduced, but the wind speed is increased, otherwise, the wind quantity is increased, and the wind speed is reduced; when the rotating speed of the fan is independently regulated, the rotating speed of the fan is increased to synchronously increase the air quantity of the outlet air speed, and otherwise, the air quantity of the outlet air speed is synchronously reduced. Therefore, the strong coupling relation between the corresponding wind speed and the wind quantity of the existing sprayer makes the existing sprayer incapable of realizing the on-demand regulation and control of the wind speed and the wind quantity.
Based on the state of the art, when the existing target sprayer sprays the target on the fruit trees in the orchard, the on-demand regulation and control of the dosage and wind power are difficult to be realized in a coordinated manner, and the 'strong coupling' relation between the wind speed and the wind quantity during spraying is overcome, so that the better medicine spraying effect is difficult to achieve.

Referring to fig. 1, 2 and 5, the embodiment provides a laser radar-based orchard target air-assisted sprayer, which comprises: the two-dimensional laser radar 1 is used for acquiring target information of the fruit tree, wherein the target information comprises position information, canopy contour information, canopy volume information and canopy density information of the fruit tree; the speed detection device is used for collecting the running speed information of the sprayer; the air conveying device 2, wherein the air conveying device 2 comprises an air box 21, a fan 22, an air inlet area adjusting mechanism 24 and an air outlet area adjusting mechanism 23; one end of the bellows 21 forms an air inlet, and the other end forms an air outlet; the air inlet area adjusting mechanism 24 is arranged at the air inlet, and the air outlet area adjusting mechanism 23 is arranged at the air outlet; the spraying device 3, the spraying end of the spraying device 3 is positioned at the air outlet side of the air conveying device 2; the input end of the control device 4 is in communication connection with the two-dimensional laser radar 1 and the speed detection device, and the output end of the control device 4 is in communication connection with the fan 22, the air inlet area adjusting mechanism 24, the air outlet area adjusting mechanism 23 and the spraying device 3 respectively.
Specifically, in the sprayer shown in this embodiment, target information of the fruit tree can be collected by the two-dimensional laser radar 1, and running speed information of the sprayer is collected by the speed detection device, so that when the air-supply device 2 and the corresponding spraying device 3 are opposite to the canopy of the fruit tree and perform air-supply spraying, the amount of medicine sprayed to the fruit tree can be calculated based on the target information of the fruit tree, so as to control the spraying device 3 to spray medicine, and the air speed and the air quantity conveyed by the air-supply device 2 to the fruit tree are calculated based on the target information of the fruit tree, so as to cooperatively control the rotation speed output by the fan 22, control the air inlet area adjusting mechanism 24 to adjust the air inlet quantity of the air inlet and control the air outlet quantity of the air outlet area adjusting mechanism 23 to adjust the air outlet quantity of the air outlet, and further control of different positions of the wind distribution and the wind power of the canopy of the fruit tree can be realized, and target spraying operation can be sequentially performed on each fruit tree of the orchard based on the running speed information of the sprayer and the position information of the fruit tree.

Therefore, the sprayer disclosed by the embodiment is high in automation degree, applicable to spraying operation of fruit trees of different types and different heights in an orchard, and capable of greatly reducing labor intensity of operators.
As shown in fig. 1, the two-dimensional laser radar 1, the speed detection device, the air-assisted device 2, the spraying device 3 and the control device 4 shown in this embodiment are all installed on the mobile platform 5, and the mobile platform 5 can adopt a crawler running mechanism known in the art to adapt to complex running road conditions of an orchard, so as to facilitate target spraying of medicines on fruit trees, wherein the two-dimensional laser radar 1 can be installed on the mobile platform 5 through an adjustable bracket, so that based on adjustment of the installation height of the two-dimensional laser radar 1, acquisition of target information of fruit trees with different heights can be realized.
The two-dimensional laser radar 1 shown in this embodiment realizes non-contact ranging of fruit trees (targets) according to a laser pulse Time Flight principle (Time-of-Flight) so as to obtain characteristic point cloud data of the fruit trees, and further obtains target information of the fruit trees according to the characteristic point cloud data. Meanwhile, the two-dimensional laser radar 1 not only can be used for collecting target information of fruit trees, but also can be used for providing a navigation path for autonomous walking of the mobile platform 5, so that unmanned operation process of the whole pesticide spraying is realized, labor cost can be saved, pesticide utilization rate can be improved, and harm of pesticides to personnel health can be reduced.
The speed detection device shown in this embodiment is not illustrated in fig. 1, and the speed detection device may be a GPS positioning module known in the art, so that the running speed information of the sprayer may be obtained by monitoring the real-time position change of the sprayer, or the speed detection device may be a speed sensor known in the art for directly detecting the speed of the sprayer, or an encoder or a proximity switch may be used to detect the rotation speed of a corresponding running device (running wheel) of the sprayer, which is not specifically illustrated herein.
Meanwhile, as shown in fig. 3, the control device 4 in this embodiment may include an industrial personal computer, a drug amount control system, a wind power control system and a walking control system, where the industrial personal computer is connected to the two-dimensional laser radar 1 through network port communication and is respectively connected to the drug amount control system, the wind power control system and the walking control system through a CAN bus, and the drug amount control system is used for controlling the drug amount sprayed by the spraying device 3 based on target information of fruit trees. The wind power regulation and control system is used for controlling the wind speed and the wind quantity of the wind power supplied by the wind power supply device 2 based on the target information of the fruit trees.
In addition, based on the navigation path provided by the two-dimensional laser radar 1 for autonomous walking of the mobile platform 5, the walking control system can control the walking pose of the crawler travelling mechanism, so that the whole pesticide spraying operation process is unmanned, the labor cost is greatly saved, the pesticide utilization rate is improved, and the harm of pesticides to personnel health is reduced. The crawler traveling mechanism is arranged on the crawler, the corresponding traveling control system of the crawler traveling mechanism comprises a crawler traveling controller, the deflection angle of the crawler during traveling can be monitored based on the angle sensor, the traveling speed of the crawler is monitored by monitoring the rotating speed of a traveling motor on the crawler through the speed sensor, and accordingly the crawler traveling controller can control the traveling pose of the crawler in real time through the motor driver based on the deflection angle and the traveling speed.
In addition, in the spraying device 3, the spraying end of the spraying device 3 may be provided on the air outlet side of the air-sending device 2 in a separate manner, or the spraying end may be directly attached to the air outlet side of the air-sending device 2. The spraying device 3 can control the spraying dosage by controlling the flow of spraying medicine at the spraying end. The wind speed and the wind quantity of the wind supplied by the wind supply device 2 are controlled by the fan 22, and the wind speed and the wind quantity required by the wind supply device 2 for fruit tree transportation can be realized by adjusting the corresponding wind inlet quantity and the wind outlet quantity by combining the wind inlet area adjusting mechanism 24 and the wind outlet area adjusting mechanism 23. Thus, when actually blowing, for the fruit tree canopy with big tree crowns and sparse branches and leaves, the air blowing device 2 can be controlled to output air with big air quantity and small air speed, and for the fruit tree canopy with small tree crowns and dense branches and leaves, the air blowing device 2 can be controlled to output air with small air quantity and big air speed, so that the medicine can be uniformly delivered to each area of the fruit tree canopy.
Preferably, as shown in fig. 2 and 5, the first end of the air-sending device 2 is rotatably mounted on the base 6, and the second end of the air-sending device 2 is connected with the base 6 through a telescopic driving mechanism 7, wherein the telescopic driving mechanism 7 can be any one of a hydraulic cylinder, an air cylinder and an electric push rod, and a distance sensor can be mounted on the base 6 to monitor the turning angle of the air-sending device 2 relative to the first end thereof in real time, so as to control the telescopic amount of the telescopic driving mechanism 7 in real time.
Specifically, because corresponding medicine spraying is required in different growth periods of the fruit trees, the heights of the fruit trees in different growth periods are different, the forms of the fruit tree crowns are also different, and meanwhile, under different terrain conditions, the heights of the fruit trees to the medicine air conveying devices 2 are also different, in order to meet the medicine spraying requirements of the fruit trees with different heights, in the embodiment, the first end of the air conveying device 2 is hinged with the base 6, the second end of the air conveying device 2 is hinged with the base of the electric push rod, and the telescopic end of the electric push rod is hinged with the corresponding end of the base 6. Therefore, the control device 4 can control the expansion and contraction amount of the expansion and contraction driving mechanism 7 (electric push rod) based on the distance information of the wind conveying device 2 deviated from the base 6 acquired by the distance sensor, so that the wind conveying device 2 can be driven to turn over a corresponding angle relative to the first end of the wind conveying device 2 when the expansion and contraction end of the expansion and contraction driving mechanism 7 performs expansion and contraction actions, and the wind conveying device 2 can be ensured to perform target spraying operation on fruit trees suitable for different heights.
Further, in order to ensure the stability and reliability of the overturning of the air conveying device 2, the embodiment may further design a scissor-fork support 8, wherein the bottom of the scissor-fork support 8 is connected with the base 6, and the top of the scissor-fork support 8 is movably connected with the air conveying device 2, so that the scissor-fork support 8 can be adaptively unfolded when the air conveying device 2 is overturned towards a position far away from the base 6, and the scissor-fork support 8 can be adaptively retracted when the air conveying device 2 is overturned towards a position near to the base 6, and can provide auxiliary support for the air conveying device 2 in the process.

In order to improve the efficiency of spraying targets on fruit trees and reduce the equipment cost, the sprayer shown in the embodiment can specifically set two air conveying devices 2, and when the two air conveying devices 2 and the corresponding spraying devices 3 spray medicines on the targets on the fruit trees, the spraying directions of the targets are respectively towards the left side and the right side of the movable platform 5, so that the target spraying operation on the fruit trees on the left side and the right side can be realized.
It should be noted that, the control device 4 can independently control the air-sending device 2 and the spraying device 3 on the corresponding sides to independently perform the target spraying operation based on different growth conditions of the fruit trees on the two sides of the sprayer detected by the two-dimensional laser radar 1.

The canopy contour gridding optimization algorithm shown in this embodiment is as follows:
and acquiring the outline of the fruit tree canopy based on the point cloud data corresponding to the canopy of the fruit tree, wherein the outline of the fruit tree canopy is a set of outer wrapping lines of the fruit tree canopy, contains all information of canopy geometric characteristic parameters and is formed by connecting outermost edge points at different positions of the canopy. In this case, the fruit tree canopy contours are each gridded in the transverse direction and in the longitudinal direction at predetermined point spacings, for example: when the point taking distance is 0.1m, the corresponding size of each grid unit is 0.1m multiplied by 0.1m, wherein the grid unit coordinates are the walking direction of the sprayer, the z direction is the height direction of the fruit tree canopy, the x direction is the thickness direction of the fruit tree canopy, and the x direction is the direction of the sprayer horizontally facing the fruit tree and is perpendicular to the y direction.
As shown in fig. 8, based on the point cloud data of the fruit tree canopy acquired by the two-dimensional laser radar 1, the transverse section of the canopy can be obtained by extracting sections with different canopy heights, and the half tree profile area corresponding to the two-dimensional laser radar 1 in fig. 8 represents the transverse section of the canopy extracted in this embodiment.

Meanwhile, the number of the returned point cloud data in the designated area volume detected by the two-dimensional laser radar can be divided by the theoretical number of the point cloud data which is distributed in the designated area volume, and the canopy dense information of the fruit tree can be obtained by combining corresponding conversion coefficients, and the principle is as follows:
the objective of conventional pesticide spraying is to uniformly spray the agent onto each leaf, i.e. the application rate q is a function of the leaf area s, i.e. q=f(s), but it is difficult to calculate the leaf area rapidly by a non-destructive measurement method due to the large number of leaves and the presence of partial occlusions. The leaf area s can be indirectly calculated by multiplying the leaf area density ρ by the volume V of the designated area, i.e., s=ρv, where the leaf area density ρ is used to describe the sparsity of branches and leaves in the canopy of the fruit tree, which refers to the leaf area (m 2 /m 3) I.e., ρ=s/V.
Setting the number of blades in the designated area volume V to be n l The area of each leaf is S i ,i=1,2,…,n l Sorting the leaf numbers, setting the difference between the leaf areas of each leaf and the first leaf as DeltaS i ,i=1,2,…,n l -1, then the leaf area within the specified zone volume V can be expressed as:
Figure BDA0002579825720000171
assume that
Figure BDA0002579825720000172
I.e. the variation of the area of each blade in the specified area volume V is relatively small, so that in the specified area volume V Leaf area of (c) is reduced to s=s 1 n l Thus, ρ=s/v=s can be further obtained 1 n l /V。
It can be seen that in the first leaf area S 1 In the case of determination of the value of the specified area volume V, the leaf area density ρ is n l Is changed by a change in (a).
Accordingly, based on the fact that the more the number of blades in the specified area volume V is, the larger the blade area is, the more the point cloud data output by the two-dimensional laser radar is, and therefore the embodiment can utilize the point cloud density to represent the blade area density, and a calculation formula is as follows:
Figure BDA0002579825720000173
wherein n is p For detecting the number of returned point cloud data of a target in a designated area volume, n max For distributing the theoretical number of the point cloud data in the designated area volume, it is obvious that the theoretical number is the maximum value which can be reached by the point cloud data in the designated area volume in theory, namely, n max In the case of value determination, the point cloud density ρ p With n p To change as long as n is determined by data analysis l And n p The functional relation between the two can be used for determining the parameter leaf area density rho and the point cloud density rho through coefficient calculation p A functional relationship between, and thus, cloud density ρ of a volume of a region can be specified by p And acquiring canopy dense information of the fruit trees more conveniently.
