Problems solved by technology

When the stacking machine stacks the containers to a higher level, due to the long distance, too high viewing angle, and the large swing of the spreader, it is difficult for the driver of the stacking machine to accurately align the containers on the spreader with the containers already stacked below. Containers need to be repeatedly operated on the stacking machine to align, so the stacking quality cannot be guaranteed, and it will greatly affect the production efficiency of the stacking machine

Embodiment 1

[0057] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the first layer of containers at the bottom is manually stacked by the driver of the stacking machine. When stacking the containers of the second layer and above, the driver manually lifts the container to the correct position to ensure that it is higher than the already Stacked containers. Then, the driver changes manual control to automatic control, and the system measures the position difference between the container on the spreader and the stacked container, and then controls the position of the container on the spreader until the stacking is successful, and then turns to For manual control, the driver manually controls to carry the next container, and repeats the above steps. If the position of the container is not automatically controlled, the driver can be informed of the position difference between the upper and lower containers in real time by using voice, text or image information, and then the driver manually controls the position ...

Abstract

The invention provides a container aligning system and method and adopts any one of the following three methods to realize: a first method: adopting two laser radars and at least one monocular camera to measure and align; a second method: adopting two stereo cameras to measure and align; a third method: combination of the first method and the second method to align the container, wherein the camera in the first method adopts a camera of the stereo camera. The container aligning system and method can effectively ensure the stacking aligning quality and improve the stacking efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a container alignment system and an alignment method. The container alignment method and system in this patent can be applied to most port machinery (such as stackers, reach stackers, etc.). Background technique [0002] Container stacking machinery is widely used in container terminals, railway transfer stations, highway intermediate stations and container yards, mainly for container stacking and handling. Empty containers can be stacked up to nine layers. Due to the high stacking height, the containers on each layer need to be aligned accurately, otherwise the container may collapse. When the stacking machine stacks the containers to a higher level, due to the long distance, too high viewing angle, and the large swing of the spreader, it is difficult for the stacking machine driver to accurately align the containers on the spreader with the containers already stacked below. It is necessary to repeatedly operate the stacking...
