Abstract

The paper presents the kinematic analysis of bionic vibratory subsoiler used for agricultural tillage operation. Bionics is the study of the mechanical systems that function like living organisms or parts of the living organisms. Studies have reported that application of bionics in design procedure improves the working system efficiency. A crank-rocker mechanism is selected from the available literature for vibratory tillage operation in banana cultivation. The required trajectory of the crank-rocker mechanism for bionic vibratory subsoiler is examined through kinematic analysis. Velocity and acceleration required for the tillage tool operation are identified through kinematic analysis.
