Abstract: With the increasing use of agricultural plastic film, the pollution it bringing is becoming more and more serious. It has become a problem which needs to be solved urgently. In China, the plant areas of peanut were expanded to 460.6 hm2 in 2014, which accounted for about 17.9% of the global area of peanut crops. And its output reached to 16.481 7 million tons in the same year, which accounted for about 38.9 % of the global production of peanut yields. Therefore, design and experiment on plastic film collector of ridged peanut means a great deal to us. The collecting film teeth residue plastic film collector of ridged peanut was designed, and the whole structure and working mechanism of the machine were introduced. Therefore, the main operation components of it were designed and the structure parameters were determined at last. To solve the problem of residual film recycling after peanuts harvest, we designed the plastic film residue collector, and then optimized its parameters. The key structural parameters were determined by mechanism analysis and tests. The collecting film teeth diameter of the first row, the second row, and the third row were set as 10, 8 and 8 mm, respectively. The harrowing tooth was made of No.65 manganese steel, and the harrowing tooth's lug angle ranges from 10° to 35°. The collecting film teeth space on the first row, the second row, and the third row were 120, 100 and 80 mm, respectively. The four-dimensional slice of MATLAB and response surface analysis was done on the machine speed, the harrowing tooth's lug depth and its radius of curvature. The quadratic regression model between film removing ratio and machine operating speed, the embedded depth of the rake, tooth curvature radius was built. The optimal structure parameters of plastic film residue collector were obtained by response surface analysis. The response surface analysis of the model was optimized, and the effect of 3 factors on the recovery of the residual membrane was significant. The order of strength is: machine operating speed> embedded depth of the collecting film teeth > collecting film teeth curvature radius. The machine was optimized by parameter optimization. The machine operating speed, depth of collecting film teeth, tooth's radius of curvature of machine was 1.2 m/s, 11mm, and 222 mm, respectively. And film recycling rate was about 93% through the field test. Its relative error was 2% compared with the predictive value. In conclusion, the optimization scheme was feasible. This paper could provide theoretical basis for optimization of related machines. With the preliminary experiment, the collecting film teeth residue plastic film collector of ridged peanut has good film quality, which meets the design requirements of plastic recycling machine. Removing mechanism on the collecting film teeth residue plastic film collector of ridged peanut is the further research.
