Objective Aiming at the issues of high labor intensity and cost in the film-breaking process for potato planting under the film,a crawler-type walking device for an automatic potato seedling planter was designed. Method Based on the operational characteristics of the track,the kinematic model and differential stee-ring models of the track chassis were established,and the structural parameters of the key components were designed according to the requirements of agronomy.A fuzzy-control navigation algorithm was proposed,using navigation distance and navigation angle as inputs and track speed difference as output,to enable precise path tracking and stable operation of the seedling planter.The designed walking device was validatd through the dri-ving performance tests of the whole machine and field experiments. Result The maximum actual speed of the walking device reached 1.11 m/s,with an average deviation rate of 1.62%.As the operating speed increased from 0.3 to 0.5 m/s,both the lateral deviation and its corresponding standard deviation increased,indicating a reduction in navigation stability.Specifically,the maximum lateral deviation under the 0.5 m/s operating condition was 108 mm,with a standard deviation of 41.13 mm.When operating from different initial positions at a speed of 0.3 m/s,the seedling planter stabilized within a relatively short distance.After stabilization,the lateral deviation of the system remained below 70 mm,with a standard deviation not exceeding 37 mm. Conclusion The designed crawler-type walking device for the automatic potato seedling planter exhibits strong stability and high navigation accuracy,meeting the practical requirements for automatic potato seedling placement operations.
