Problems solved by technology

[0003] The existing above-mentioned communication is to connect each robot and the control system through cables, and communicate in a wired manner. The disadvantage of using wired communication is that, on the one hand, the area of ​​communication is limited; on the other hand, the cables themselves are easily damaged. Frequent maintenance is required, and even accidents are easily caused in the automated production process
[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned problems, people hope that the above-mentioned communication can be realized in a wireless manner. At present, it is generally considered that the wireless communication method is to use a wireless local area network, such as wireless fidelity (WIreless-Fidelity, WiFi), and Bluetooth communication (Bluetooth) to carry out wireless signals. Transmission, but due to many problems, it is still not up to the task of wireless signal transmission in automated factories

Abstract

The invention provides an automated factory based on optical communication. The automated factory based on optical communication comprises a first optical communication unit, a plurality of working units and a plurality of second optical communication units. The plurality of working units are respectively communicatively connected with the plurality of second optical communication units; the plurality of second optical communication units and the first optical communication unit convert a data signal transmitted by the work unit into a corresponding optical signal according to a preset parameter rule, and the plurality of work units communicate with each other through the optical signal through the optical signal; wherein the illumination area of the first optical communication unit includes an area where the plurality of second optical communication units are located; and the illumination area of the plurality of second optical communication units includes an area where the first optical communication unit is located. The automatic factory based on the optical communication of the invention can well complete the wireless signal transmission of the whole factory.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of automation, in particular to an automatic factory based on optical communication. Background technique [0002] As factory automation has been popularized in various fields, such as: automotive automated production lines, etc., automated factories need to use bus systems such as EtherCAT, RS485, RS232, Ethernet, Can, etc. communication between. [0003] The existing above-mentioned communication is to connect each robot and the control system through cables, and communicate in a wired manner. The disadvantage of using wired communication is that, on the one hand, the area of ​​communication is limited; on the other hand, the cables themselves are easily damaged. Frequent maintenance is required, and even accidents are easily caused in the automated production process. [0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned problems, people hope that the above-mentioned communication can be realized in a wirel...
