[0054] Preferably, the Beidou RTK positioning module includes:
[0055] The GNSS base station host is used to receive and process signals from Beidou satellites and is installed on the top of the freight yard office building;
[0056] The GNSS mobile station host is used to receive signals from the GNSS base station host and Beidou satellites, calculate the location information of the mobile station host through real-time differential positioning technology, and is installed on the upper end of the gantry crane or reach crane;
[0057] GNSS antennas, used to receive radio signals transmitted by Beidou satellites, are installed on the GNSS base station host and the GNSS mobile station host respectively;
[0058] The data transmission radio is used to transmit the position data obtained by the GNSS mobile station host to the fixed base station or other receiving equipment in real time, and is installed on the gantry crane or reach crane.
[0059] In this embodiment, through the cooperation of the GNSS reference station host and the GNSS mobile station host, combined with the high-precision RTK technology of the Beidou satellite, high-precision three-dimensional positioning of the gantry crane or reach stacker can be achieved. This positioning method is not only highly accurate, but also can be updated in real time, providing reliable basic data for the precise management of containers; high-precision positioning information can accurately guide the operation of the gantry crane or reach stacker, reducing operation delays and errors caused by inaccurate positioning. At the same time, the feedback of real-time position information can also help operators better understand the equipment status, improve operation efficiency, and improve operation safety to a certain extent; the application of the data transmission station enables the location data obtained by the GNSS mobile station host to be transmitted to the fixed base station or other receiving equipment in real time and stably, which not only ensures the accuracy and integrity of the data, but also improves the data processing speed and efficiency, providing strong support for subsequent container management and analysis; by installing the GNSS reference station host on the top of the freight yard office building, the GNSS mobile station host is installed on the upper end of the gantry crane or reach stacker, and the flexible configuration of the data transmission station, the entire system has good flexibility and adaptability. This design can adapt to changes in different freight yard environments and operation requirements, and improves the practicality and reliability of the system.
[0060] Preferably, the GNSS mobile station host calculates the location information of the mobile station host through real-time differential positioning technology, specifically including:
[0061] Beidou satellites transmit dual-frequency signals, which are received simultaneously by the GNSS reference station host and the mobile station host;
[0062] The GNSS base station host and the mobile station host respectively calculate the received carrier phase information;
[0063] Perform differential calculation based on the carrier phase information of the GNSS base station host and the mobile station host to obtain the differential result;
[0064] Based on the differential results, the location information of the mobile station host is calculated in real time.
[0065] In this embodiment, by using the dual-frequency signals transmitted by Beidou satellites, the GNSS base station host and the mobile station host can simultaneously receive these signals and perform precise measurement of the carrier phase. Through differential calculation, the positioning error caused by factors such as differences in satellite signal propagation paths and atmospheric influences can be significantly reduced, thereby achieving sub-meter-level high-precision positioning, which is crucial for the precise management of containers in railway freight yards and stations, and can ensure the accuracy of container positions and improve operating efficiency; through real-time differential positioning technology, the position information of the mobile station host can be quickly calculated, which means that the position information of the gantry crane or front crane can be updated in real time during operation, providing timely and accurate data support for freight yard management. This helps to optimize the operating process, reduce waiting time, and improve overall operational efficiency; by using dual-frequency signals and differential positioning technology, the technical solution can still maintain high stability and reliability in complex environments, and even when the satellite signal is interfered with or blocked, the error can be reduced through differential calculation to ensure the accuracy of the positioning result, which is particularly important for railway freight yards and stations with complex environments and frequent operations.
[0066] Preferably, the Beidou RTK positioning module also includes:
[0067] The laser rangefinder is used to calculate the distance by emitting a laser beam and measuring the time it takes to be reflected back, so as to assist the positioning of the mobile station host. It is installed in conjunction with the GNSS mobile station host.

This technology has the characteristics of high-precision and high-speed measurement. After being installed in conjunction with the GNSS mobile station host, the laser rangefinder can provide additional distance information to assist GNSS positioning, thereby further enhancing the positioning accuracy. In complex environments (such as severe occlusion, signal interference, etc.), the GNSS signal may be interfered with or lost, resulting in a decrease in positioning accuracy. At this time, the laser rangefinder can be used as a backup or supplementary means to ensure the continuity and stability of positioning. In environments such as railway freight yards and stations, the mobility of containers is large and operations are frequent. By integrating the laser rangefinder and the GNSS mobile station, the laser rangefinder can be used to ensure the continuity and stability of positioning. Station host, Beidou RTK positioning module can realize real-time monitoring and accurate recording of container operation process, which helps to optimize the operation process, reduce manual intervention and errors, and improve operation efficiency. At the same time, accurate location information also provides strong support for subsequent container management and transportation scheduling; the use of laser rangefinder and GNSS mobile station host can form a redundant design and improve the reliability of the entire positioning system. When the GNSS signal is interfered or lost, the laser rangefinder can play a role immediately to ensure the continuity and accuracy of positioning. In addition, the laser rangefinder can also verify and correct the GNSS positioning results to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the positioning results.

[0073] In this embodiment, the camera can collect images of containers in real time to provide basic data for subsequent recognition work. The industrial computer runs advanced machine learning algorithms to preprocess, extract features and recognize images, which can effectively cope with complex and changeable cargo yard environments and improve recognition accuracy and robustness. The macro camera further captures detailed information of the container number to ensure accurate recognition even when the container number is blurred or damaged, thereby significantly improving the overall recognition accuracy. The use of the macro camera reduces the need for multiple recognitions due to blurred container numbers, further improving recognition efficiency. By adjusting the parameters and positions of the camera and macro camera, it is possible to flexibly cope with different operating scenarios and container placement methods to ensure the stability and reliability of the recognition effect.
[0074] It should be noted that the installation position of the camera is flexibly set according to the freight yard environment and operation requirements. In the gantry crane scenario, the camera is installed at a position 1.5 meters protruding from the railing connection of the driver's cab, on the gantry crane column, and on the inside of the telescopic arm of the spreader. It is used to solve the capture and recognition of the three operations of loading and unloading trains, loading and unloading cars, and moving containers in the yard. In the reach crane scenario, the camera is installed on the inside of the telescopic arm of the spreader and on the 1m extension rod outside the driver's room, so as to capture the container number information on the top and side of the container; in addition, the installation position of the macro camera is customized according to the specific identification requirements and freight yard environment, but usually the macro camera is installed in a position where it can clearly capture the details of the container number.

The weighing data of overload or eccentric load is used as the trigger signal for starting and ending the positioning operation, and is installed near the weighing system of the gantry crane or reach crane.
[0079] In this embodiment, the application of the wireless bridge enables the satellite signal data between the gantry crane mobile base station and the fixed base station to be transmitted wirelessly in real time, without being restricted by wired lines, thereby improving the flexibility and efficiency of data transmission; the switch, as a network connection device, can efficiently connect the wireless bridge and the collector to achieve rapid forwarding and processing of data, which helps to ensure the real-time and accuracy of the positioning data and provide strong support for the precise positioning of the container; the collector can obtain the overload and unbalanced weighing data of the gantry crane or the front loaders in real time. These data serve as trigger signals for the start and end of the positioning operation, ensuring the accurate collection of the positioning data and the smooth progress of the operation process. Through the precise capture of the collector, false alarms and missed alarms can be effectively avoided, thereby improving the operation efficiency; the data transmission module adopts a combination of wireless and wired methods, which not only ensures the flexibility of data transmission, but also enhances the stability and reliability of the system. In the complex and changeable cargo yard environment, this design helps to cope with various emergencies and ensure the continuous and stable operation of the system.
