Abstract: In view of the current situation of gradual degradation of grassland, this paper designs a water jet grassland root cutting machine based on root cutting improvement technology. The machine achieves the purpose of restoring grassland by the impact of high-pressure fluid on soil. In order to improve the working efficiency, an adaptive position adjustment device (following is referred to as APA device) is designed, which can ensure the adaptability of the fluidic sprinkler to the ground. In this regard, the overall structure and working principle of the water jet grassland root cutting machine are first analyzed. Furthermore, the dynamic model of the APA device is established based on the Lagrange equation, and the motion process of the device is simulated by MATLAB/SimMechanics. The results show that the APA device has good working efficiency in the smooth ground, and there is a significant vibration response in the protuberant ground. In order to reduce the vibration interference, the structure of the APA device is optimized based on the simulation results. The optimized simulation results show that the vibration response generated during the operation of the APA device is reduced, the vibration interference is reduced, and the optimization effect is significant.
