Abstract
In the forest area, it is very difficult for a worker to pick larch cones because mother trees are very high. In order to solve this problem, a robot of picking cones is researched and manufactured. This robot not only can work efficiently and safely, but also can be suited to the forest area with uneven ground. Furthermore, if a different picking claw is used, the robot also can pick cones of other tree species easily. The practical test shows that the robot can pick about 500 kg larch cones per day and its efficiency is about 30~35 times than that of a worker.
