Aiming to solve the problem of knot-tripping failure caused by severe wear between the spherical roller and planar cam of the knotter, this paper first establishes a calculation model of the spatial cam contour surface. The knot-tripping mechanism in the knotter is designed as a line-contact curved-surface cam mechanism, with the cutter arm swinging in accordance with sinusoidal acceleration. The design significantly reduces the contact stress between the cam and the roller, compared to the original knot-tripping mechanism. Additionally, it eliminates the impact between the spherical roller and the planar cam. Based on the Archard model, the calculation model for cam-roller wear in the knot-tripping mechanism has been derived and utilized for wear calculation. The wear test results of the knot-tripping mechanism with an aluminum cam show that the curved cam has a wear amount that is 43%, 56%, 46%, and 37% lower than that of the planar cam after tying the knot 200 times, 600 times, 1300 times, and 2000 times, respectively. Under the condition that the twine tension is set to 120 N, and the rotation speed of the fluted disc is 60 rpm, the deviations between the calculated value and the measured value of the wear amount of the curved cam are 9.48%, 6.01%, 7.27%, and 9.95%, respectively. This validates the accuracy of the spatial cam wear model and the correctness of the curved cam design.

Apple tree branches have the physical characteristics of high cellulose content and high elasticity, and the use of traditional soft straw pickers will miss a large number of branches. It is necessary to design a picking mechanism that adapts to the physical characteristics of fruit tree branches. In the treatment of branches in modern orchards, the picking mechanism is an important part of the picking device. The success rate of picking directly affects the processing performance of the whole machine. To improve the picking rate, the roller branch picking mechanism is studied. The trajectory of the roller picking and the stress state of the branches are analyzed, and five main factors affecting the picking effect are obtained, i.e. the position relationship between the rotation center of the picking roller and the feeding roller, inclination angle of the steel teeth, the effective working length, the speed and the forward speed of the machine. A mathematical model is established to obtain the static and dynamic motion trajectories of the roller picking mechanism are obtained by using Matlab. Taking the analysis results of influencing factors as the optimization goal, the picking trajectory of the mechanism is simulated to obtain a set of non-inferior solutions. A roller branch picker is manufactured according to the parameter values and tested in the field, and the picking rate can reach 91%.
