Abstract
For the current sowing machine, unavoidable reasons such as clogging of the seed row disc type opener and the seed guide tube, slipping off the ground wheel, and other unavoidable reasons lead to sowing machine leakage. This paper designs a system to detect and compensate for missed sowing of maize precision seeds. The system mainly consists of a missed seeding detection system module, a control system module, a display system module, an actuation system module, a compensation system module, etc. Detection of missed seedings uses a microcontroller as the controller and a fiber optic sensor as the detection element. Through the microcontroller’s input capture and timer timing function, the total number of rows of missed and reseeded seeds is displayed on the LED display and fed back to the replenishment system to realize the alarm of missed seeds and automatic compensation. The results show that: the detection accuracy of missed seeding is more than 96%, and the highest detection accuracy can reach 100%. Less than 4% error occurred in missed seeding compensation (0.3% error in stepper motor speed, 4% error in rotation angle). The replanting rate of replanters is more than 90%; the replanting pass rate is more than 95%. When the tractor driving speed is 3~8 km/h, the sowing qualified rate is more than 90% to meet the sowing and replanting requirements.
