Abstract:Mechanized picking of camellia fruit mainly uses vibration. In order to study the effect of canopy vibration parameters on the picking of Camellia oleifera, a camellia “fruit-branch” double pendulum dynamic 〖JP2〗model was established, the natural frequencies of the system were 0.42Hz and 7.18Hz by solving the dynamic model. According to the force analysis of the fruit and flower buds of the camellia, the average acceleration of the fruit and flower bud shedding of the camellia was 427.15m/s2 and 1.936m/s2, respectively; ADAMS dynamic simulation software was used to simulate the vibration picking of camellia fruit canopy. The variance and response surface analysis of the test data were carried out by using Design-Expert 11.0.4 software, and the quadratic regression models of oil camellia fruit recovery and flower bud damage rate with vibration time, vibration frequency and amplitude were established. By calculating the contribution rate of test factors to test indexes and optimizing canopy vibration parameters, the optimal theoretical value was obtained as follows: vibration time of 8.09s, vibration frequency of 8.15Hz, amplitude of 50mm, oil camellia fruit recovery rate was 93.41% and oil camellia flower bud damage rate was 14.10%, which were verified by field tests. Results showed that under the parameter combination of vibration time was 8s, vibration frequency was 8Hz and amplitude was 50mm, the average value of XIANG-LIN 210 camellia fruit recovery rate and bud damage rate were 92.37% and 14.38%, the difference with the theoretical optimal value was 1.04 and 0.28 percentage points, respectively. The experimental results can provide theoretical basis for the design of camellia fruit picking equipment.
