Automatic guided vehicle having tracking function and used for intelligent material transferring device and tracking method

Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic guided vehicle having a tracking function and used for an intelligent material transferring device and a tracking method. The automatic guided vehicle comprises amain control module. The main control module is connected with a road condition information acquisition module, a path selection and adjustment module and a database. The road condition information acquisition module comprises a real-time camera module and an infrared ranging module. The input end of the real-time camera module and the input end of the infrared ranging module are connected with areference point set, and the output end of the real-time camera module and the output end of the infrared ranging module are connected with the main control module through a real-time positioning module. The path selection and adjustment module comprises an initial point confirmation module and an end point confirmation module. The output end of the main control module is connected with a path confirmation module through the path selection and adjustment module. During tracking of the automatic guided vehicle, destroy to the road surface is avoided, and the path can be changed freely so that the automatic guided vehicle can be used more flexibly, and tracking of the automatic guided vehicle is more accurate; and in addition, when the automatic guided vehicle encounters an obstacle, the path can be rapidly adjusted in real time, and the automatic guided vehicle is prevented from crashing into the obstacle.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of intelligent transportation, in particular to an automatic tracking and guiding vehicle for intelligent material handling equipment and a tracking method. Background technique [0002] Automatic guided vehicle, also known as AGV, refers to automatic guidance equipment such as magnetic strips, tracks or lasers, driving along a planned path, powered by batteries, and equipped with safety protection and various auxiliary mechanisms (such as transfer, assembly, etc.) institutions) unmanned automated vehicles. Usually multiple AGVs and control computers (consoles), navigation equipment, charging equipment and peripheral auxiliary equipment form an AGV system. The main working principle is that under the monitoring and task scheduling of the control computer, the AGV can accurately follow the prescribed path. After arriving at the designated position of the task, a series of tasks are completed, and the control computer ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0006] (1) When the existing automatic tracking guided vehicle is in use, it is necessary to set magnetic nails on the road surface in advance, which will not only damage the road surface, but also make it difficult to replace the line, making the use of the car inflexible;

[0007] (2) Automatic tracking guided vehicles are usually used in narrow and complicated places such as warehouses, and due to the accumulation and transfer of goods, the driving environment of the car is more variable, so it is difficult to use GPS for accurate tracking. is not conducive to the transportation of goods;

[0008] (3) When the existing automatic tracking and guiding vehicles encounter obstacles, it is difficult to make real-time and rapid route adjustments, which not only easily knocks down obstacles, but also delays the normal transportation of goods
