Container posture detection device and method

Abstract

The invention discloses a container posture detection device and a method. The disclosed detection device comprises a scan module which is used for carrying out real-time scan on a container truck which passes a buffer area, thereby obtaining vehicle contour point data of each scan section; a contour generation module which is used for generating a three-dimensional contour of a vehicle accordingto the vehicle contour point data of the scan sections; and an identification module which is used for identifying change of a container posture according to the three-dimensional contour of the vehicle. According to the device and the method, contour data of the container truck is obtained through utilization of laser radar and real-time computing is carried out, so a position and a posture of acontainer are obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to object recognition and position detection technology, in particular to a container posture detection device and method. Background technique [0002] In the automated terminal, there is a lack of accurate measurement of the container's position and orientation during the container lifting process. Once the container has a position deviation or deformation, it may lead to the failure of automated loading and unloading or increase the loading and unloading time. On the other hand, if the tilt angle of the container is too large during the loading and unloading of the collection truck, it can be judged that the lock head of the collection truck is not unlocked, which will lead to the occurrence of a safety accident when the collection truck is lifted. [0003] At present, the automatic loading and unloading of containers mainly obtains the position of the container in three directions through the lidar top-loading scanning method,...

Problems solved by technology

[0002] In the automated terminal, there is a lack of accurate measurement of the container's position and posture during the container lifting process. Once the container has a position deviation or deformation, it may lead to the failure of automated loading and unloading or increase the loading and unloading time.

On the other hand, if the tilt angle of the container is too large during the loading and unloading of the collection truck, it can be judged that the lock head of the collection truck is not unlocked, which will lead to the occurrence of safety accidents caused by the lifting of the collection truck

[0003] At present, the automatic loading and unloading of containers mainly obtains the position of the container in three directions through the lidar top-loading scanning method, but cannot judge the inclination angle of the container

In terms of anti-lifting of collection trucks, remote monitoring is mostly used at this stage, which increases the work intensity and complexity of the driver himself
