The above spraying unit can control the amount of liquid substance sprayed according to the condition of the crop by adjusting the spraying angles of the first to third spraying units based on image data determined by the analysis unit, or can simultaneously spray different types of liquid substances through the spray nozzles formed in each of the first to third spraying units by supplying different types of liquid substances to the first to third spraying units. The above spraying unit discharges water after the pesticide is sprayed to clean the inside of the first to third spraying units where the pesticide was sprayed, thereby preventing the pesticide from mixing with water or fertilizer, and The above analysis unit is characterized by marking a fruit to be harvested with a laser to guide a worker to harvest it quickly, and when scissors approach the laser-marked area, the laser stops and directs the next harvest target by irradiating the laser toward the next harvest target. Hanger roller type pest control system capable of unmanned variable-volume spraying based on video data.
  2. In Article 1, The above analysis unit An analysis camera formed on each of the upper sides of the above loading section and simultaneously photographing the crops formed on both sides of the rail to acquire an image containing position and depth information of the crops; A position sensor formed at regular intervals on the rail to measure the current position of the conveying unit and form section information of the crop captured in the image; Characterized by comprising an analysis unit that extracts fruit and leaf information of the crop from the above image, stores the growth state of the crop, and determines the pest and disease status of the crop based on pest and disease information stored in a database. Hanger roller type pest control system capable of unmanned variable-volume spraying based on video data.
  3. delete
  4. In Article 1, The front surface of the above housing further includes an arc-shaped groove formed to limit the angle at which the angle adjustment member rotates; The middle section of the angle adjustment member further includes a protruding end that is inserted into the arc-shaped groove and slides along the arc-shaped groove. The above protruding end is characterized by limiting the angle of rotation when the angle adjustment member is rotated by the above rotation motor. Hanger roller type pest control system capable of unmanned variable-volume spraying based on video data.
  5. In Article 1, The above-mentioned plurality of sprayers are arranged radially at a constant angle centered on one end of the angle adjustment unit, and Characterized by being able to slide toward the other end of the angle adjustment member so that the liquid substance is sprayed in accordance with the position of the crop analyzed through the analysis unit. Hanger roller type pest control system capable of unmanned variable-volume spraying based on video data.
  6. In Article 1, The invention further comprises a spray valve formed in each of the plurality of spray nozzles and controlling the liquid substance to be sprayed only from the spray nozzle located in a position close to the crop, in accordance with the position of the crop determined by the analysis unit. Hanger roller type pest control system capable of unmanned variable-volume spraying based on video data.

Description

Hanger roller type spray system capable of unmanned and variable spraying based on image data The present invention relates to a hanger roller type pest control system capable of unmanned variable-rate spraying based on image data, wherein the system captures the condition of crops as an image during autonomous driving and adjusts the type and amount of pesticide sprayed according to the diagnosed condition. Recently, facilities such as vinyl or glass are being used to cultivate various crops, including vegetables and fruits. Furthermore, in grape cultivation, facilities such as shade systems or vinyl greenhouses are being installed to improve the quality of the harvest. Generally, vinyl greenhouses are long and the rows where crops are planted are narrow, which caused significant inconvenience for workers when transporting harvested produce, carrying agricultural materials, or performing pest control operations. To address these issues, various conveying devices are being proposed to efficiently move harvested crops, fertilizers, and agricultural materials within greenhouses. Typically, conventional conveying devices for greenhouses install monorail-type rails on the greenhouse's steel frame, allowing the conveying device to move along these rails. Korean Registered Patent No. 10-1038934 discloses a device for transporting harvested produce and controlling pests in greenhouse horticulture. A conventional facility horticulture harvest transport and pest control device comprises: a rectangular mounting bracket installed on the lower side of a rail installed longitudinally on the ceiling of a vinyl greenhouse; a lifting motor equipped with a winding drum installed on one side of the upper surface of each corner of the rectangular mounting bracket; a support plate installed vertically upward for a certain length on the other side of the upper surface of each corner of the rectangular mounting bracket; a moving motor installed on the upper part of the support plate and equipped with wheels, such that the upper surface of the rail contacts the lower surface of the wheels; a guide part installed on the lower part of the support plate so that the lower surface of the rail contacts the guide part; a lifting/lowering wire connected to the winding drum of the lifting motor and moving up and down according to the rotation of the winding drum; a carrier connected to the lifting/lowering wire and moving up and down; a hinge installed and fixed along the side of the carrier; a metal fence rotatably installed on the hinge; and a magnet located on one side of the hinge and installed vertically upward and vertically downward on the edge of the carrier. It consists of a clamp installed and fixed at regular intervals on the bottom surface of the above-mentioned carrier, and a sprayer that is fastened and fixed to the clamp and sprays pesticides onto crops. However, in the case of the conventional technology described above, there was a problem in that the operator had to constantly monitor the operating status because it was operated by manual control, and there was the inconvenience of having to check for the presence of surrounding obstacles or people even while moving. In addition, in the case of the conventional technology described above, pesticides are sprayed regardless of the condition of the crops, resulting in high pesticide consumption and excessive scattering inside the greenhouse, which contaminates the soil.
