Abstract

Due to the commitment to the target of green mechanized production and precision agriculture, the operating parameters of the main functional components of a combine harvester need to be adjusted according to the feeding quantity. Therefore, feeding quantity monitoring is one of the key technologies of intelligent control for a combine harvester. In order to obtain the accurate information of feeding quantity in the harvesting operation process in real time, a monitoring system was set up to obtain the accurate information of feeding quantity in real time. The torque signal corresponding to different feeding quantity was obtained through bench calibration experiments. The signal was decomposed, noise reduced, and reconstructed through the analysis of the frequency range of the noise based on the wavelet transform. A fitting relationship between the torque and the feeding quantity was obtained. Field validation experiment results showed good consistency of the measured data and the actual quantity. This paper provides a theoretical basis and technical reference for subsequent research on intelligent control of combine harvesters.
