The Design of Yield Monitor Device of Tomato Harvester

Article Preview

Abstract:

To solve the problem that yield monitoring cannot be done in real time during tomato harvesting in existing technology, a real-time yield monitor device on tomato harvester is designed by an three-dimensional software which is named Solidworks. This article describes the all structural characteristics and working principle of the device. Weighing belt, rollers and three kinds of sensors of the device are mainly designed and selected based on the working environment and technical requirements. The design of yield monitor device promotes popularization of the technology of tomato harvesting yield monitor on tomato harvesting machinery, makes the process of yield monitor in real time during tomato harvest realize automated, intelligently and informationized and provides a theoretical basis for the further study of tomato harvester monitoring technology.
