摘要： In an aspect, a process for removing a tail end of Brussels sprouts comprises separating a Brussels sprout from a stack and transferring it to a longitudinal transport track. On the track, the Brussels sprout is manipulated to position a longest dimension of the Brussels sprout perpendicular to a direction of travel of the transport track. Near an end of the track, a position and an orientation of each Brussels sprout is defined by photographic detection. Each Brussels sprout is removed from the transport track by a gripper. A position and an orientation of the gripper are defined using the detected position and orientation of the Brussels sprout to be removed. The gripper is re-oriented and moved along a knife to remove the tail end of the Brussels sprout. The Brussels sprout is removed from the gripper and collected.

摘要翻译： 在一方面，用于去除布鲁塞尔芽菜的尾端的方法包括将布鲁塞尔芽从堆叠分离并将其转移到纵向运输轨道。 在赛道上，布鲁塞尔的芽苗被操纵，将布鲁塞尔发芽的最长尺寸垂直于运输轨道的行进方向。 靠近轨道的一端，每个布鲁塞尔发芽的位置和方向都是通过摄影检测来定义的。 每个布鲁塞尔的芽苗由夹子从运输轨道上取出。 使用检测到的待排除的布鲁塞尔芽苗的位置和方向来定义夹具的位置和取向。 夹具被重新定向并沿着刀移动以去除布鲁塞尔芽苗的尾端。 布鲁塞尔新芽从夹子中取出并收集。
