AGV anti-collision obstacle avoidance protection device and position self-adaptive adjustment method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides an AGV anti-collision and obstacle-avoiding protection device. The AGV anti-collision obstacle avoidance protection device comprises an anti-collision obstacle avoidance assembly used for detecting obstacles and a self-adaptive adjustment assembly. The self-adaptive adjusting assembly comprises a transmission unit with a self-locking function, a detection unit and an adjusting unit. The anti-collision obstacle avoidance assembly comprises a non-contact type obstacle avoidance sensor and a contact type obstacle avoidance sensor. The non-contact type obstacle avoidance sensor is arranged on the detection unit and the contact type obstacle avoidance unit is hinged with the adjusting unit. The transmission unit is installed on the AGV equipment, one end of the adjustingunit is connected with the transmission unit, and the other end of the adjusting unit is hinged to the detection unit, so it is achieved that the transmission unit is controlled to drive the adjustingunit to move so as to adjust the positions and the detection ranges of the non-contact type obstacle avoidance sensor and the contact type obstacle avoidance sensor. According to the invention, the probability of accidents of the AGV equipment and related workers around the working environment can be reduced, and the service life of the AGV equipment is prolonged. The invention also provides a rapid and effective method for adaptively adjusting the positions of the device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of AGV anti-collision and obstacle avoidance safety protection, and more specifically, relates to an AGV anti-collision and obstacle avoidance protection device and a method for self-adaptive adjustment of its position. Background technique [0002] In the process of rapid transformation of the manufacturing industry, the development of smart equipment plays a vital role. Automatic guided robot (hereinafter referred to as AGV) has been widely used in the equipment manufacturing process due to its good flexibility, high degree of automation and high level of intelligence. Especially in the fields of logistics handling and product production lines, AGVs are more widely used. [0003] In order to avoid collisions and interference between the AGV and the operators and equipment around the driving environment during the working process, resulting in additional safety accidents, the AGV is generally equipped with...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, when the AGV transports super-long cargo such as aluminum profiles, the maximum size of the cargo extends beyond the outside of the AGV body, resulting in the failure of the non-contact collision avoidance and obstacle avoidance sensor, and the contact collision avoidance and obstacle avoidance module cannot play its due role. role, prone to corresponding accidents
