Problems solved by technology

However, this method is weak in the detection of welding groove size parameters and the monitoring of welding torch height information.
[0005] Through the retrieval of related technologies, it can be seen that in the design of visual sensor based on laser structured light currently used in welding robots, there is no design scheme using a combination of cross laser and straight laser, and the detection function is relatively single

[0069] Example 1: Detection of welding torch 200 height information:

[0070] Such as figure 2 As shown, the multifunctional visual sensor device 100 based on the composite laser structured light is in the forward direction of the welding movement of the welding torch 200, and the groove features of the workpiece will reflect the crosshair laser projected on the workpiece by the crosshair laser 4a and the inline laser 4b. Influenced by the line laser, the laser line extends in the groove to form a bend. The bending characteristics of the laser line are recorded by the industrial CCD camera 1 after passing through the light reduction system 5 and the filter system 6. By further using the correlation detection algorithm based on the image processing and triangulation principle, relevant information can be extracted, especially the bending characteristics of the laser line. The coordinate information of the bending point.
