Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of AGV guide vehicles, and in particular to an AGV guide vehicle with adjustable load limit prompt. Background Art
[0002] AGV, or automatic guided vehicle, is a type of intelligent transportation equipment widely used in the field of industrial automation. They are equipped with automatic guidance devices such as electromagnetic or optical, can automatically travel along a preset path, and have safety protection and multiple transfer functions. AGV uses rechargeable batteries as a power source to achieve unmanned transportation operations. Its operating path and destination can be controlled by a management program, showing a high degree of maneuverability and flexibility. These vehicles can be organically combined with various production lines, assembly lines, conveyor lines, etc., to achieve various functions according to different needs, shorten the logistics turnover cycle, reduce material turnover consumption, and achieve high efficiency of the production system. AGV has a wide range of application scenarios, including warehousing industry, production workshops, intelligent logistics parks, medical institutions, and e-commerce logistics. They improve work efficiency, reduce labor intensity, and improve safety through automated handling. With the advancement of technology, the role of AGV in automated and intelligent logistics has become increasingly prominent, and it has become an indispensable part of modern industrial logistics.
[0003] Before the AGV cart moves the goods, the goods are usually packed and stacked in the warehouse. The warehouse staff needs to use the AGV cart to transfer the stacked and packed goods to other places. In this process, the warehouse staff needs to assist in transferring the stacked and packed goods from the ground of the warehouse to the top surface of the AGV cart. However, due to the constant load limit of conventional AGV carts, they cannot load more goods than their cross-sectional area can bear. Therefore, the warehouse staff will choose to stack the goods further upwards. However, if the goods are stacked too high, it is easier for the goods to fall from above during the transportation process of the AGV cart. In addition, when loading the goods at the beginning, the warehouse staff has no way to directly judge whether the cross-sectional area of the AGV cart can bear the area occupied by the stacked and packed goods on the ground. Therefore, this problem is more common.

As the amount of oil between the liquid guide column and the piston increases, the piston is pushed out, driving the extension rod and the top plate to unfold, thereby achieving precise expansion of the top surface of the AGV. The control module can stop the pump at any time and control the power-on status of the solenoid valve and the stator winding through the relay. This process ensures that the top platform of the AGV can adapt to the cargo footprint and prevents cargo from tipping over and being damaged during transportation due to excessive stacking.

[0030] like Fig. 9 As shown, it also includes an image acquisition module 30, a weight acquisition module, a data processing module 31, and a control module 32.

The image acquisition module 30 is used to collect images of goods stacked on the ground and feed them back to the data processing module 31. The data processing module 31 is used to determine whether the top surface area of the AGV trolley is unfolded according to the image of the goods and feed it back to the control module 32. The control module 32 is used to control the unfolding of the top surface of the AGV trolley according to the information fed back by the data processing module 31.
[0031] The image acquisition module 30 includes a camera, which is used to collect images of goods stacked on the ground and feed them back to the data processing module 31. The data processing module 31 includes a central processing unit, which is used to determine whether the top surface area of the AGV trolley is unfolded according to the image of the goods and feed it back to the control module 32. The control module 32 includes a single-chip microcomputer, which is used to control the unfolding of the top surface of the AGV trolley according to the information fed back by the data processing module 31. The single-chip microcomputer is coupled to the pump body. The single-chip microcomputer controls the on-off setting of the stator winding 13 through a relay, the single-chip microcomputer controls the on-off setting of the air pressure regulating solenoid valve through a relay, and the single-chip microcomputer controls the on-off setting of the switch solenoid valve through a relay.
[0032] The image acquisition module 30 is used to collect images of goods stacked on the ground and feed them back to the data processing module 31, including the following steps: The image acquisition module 30 is adjusted and placed at a non-normal viewing angle; The image acquisition module 30 takes pictures of the goods stacked on the ground to obtain the goods image and feeds it back to the data processing module 31 .
[0033] The data processing module 31 is used to determine whether the top surface area of the AGV is unfolded according to the cargo image and to feed back to the control module 32, including the following steps: Input the cargo image and perform grayscale and Gaussian blur processing on the cargo image; Perform perspective correction on the processed truck image; The processed cargo image is subjected to edge detection through the Sobel operator to extract the coordinates of the three vertices of the cargo on the ground in the cargo image. , ,as well as , and obtain the fourth vertex coordinates based on the three vertex coordinates and the quadrilateral relationship ; Extract the coordinates of the four vertices of the top surface of the cargo in the cargo image , , , ; The area A of the goods stacked on the ground is calculated by importing the coordinates of the four vertices of the goods on the ground in the goods image into the polygon area formula. The polygon area formula is: , where k is the ratio between the pixels of the picture taken by the image acquisition module and the real object; The height H, width C, and length D of the goods stacked on the ground are calculated by importing the side length formula through the coordinates of the four vertices on the top surface of the goods in the goods image. ,width ,length ; According to the comparison between the floor area A of the goods stacked on the ground and the roof area of the AGV, if the floor area A of the goods stacked on the ground is larger than the roof area of the AGV, the output result is that the roof area of the AGV needs to be expanded; otherwise, the output result is that the roof area of the AGV does not need to be expanded.
[0034] In actual application, the present invention uses the image acquisition module 30 to obtain the cargo image of the box cargo stacked on the ground, and then identifies the floor space occupied by the cargo and autonomously determines whether the top area of the AGV needs to be expanded; If it is necessary to expand the top area of the AGV trolley, the control module 32 can control the pump body so that the pump body can extract the hydraulic oil from the liquid storage tank, and then send it to the side extension pipe 11 and the corner extension pipe 12 through the liquid inlet pipe 7, the lower main pipe 8, the vertical pipe 9, and the upper main pipe 10 in sequence. After passing through the water trough, the hydraulic oil will hit the end face of the liquid guide column 23. Since the liquid guide column 23 is restricted by the outer connecting ring 29 and the inner rod 27, it cannot be displaced and can only rotate. Therefore, at this time, the control module 32 will also control the relay coupled to the stator winding 13 to energize, so that the stator winding 13 is energized to generate a magnetic field, thereby making the liquid guide column 23 with a permanent magnet buried inside It can rotate relative to the stator winding 13. When the liquid-conducting column 23 rotates, the friction between the inner wall of the threaded guide groove 24 and the hydraulic oil with a certain viscosity can drive the hydraulic oil to be transported relatively evenly, so that the hydraulic oil is relatively evenly sent from one end of the liquid-conducting column 23 to the other end. As the amount of hydraulic oil between the liquid-conducting column 23 and the piston 19 increases, the piston 19 is pushed outward, and the piston 19 drives the extension rod 18 to move outward. The telescopic rod 21 between the piston 19 and the liquid-conducting column 23 begins to extend. However, due to the setting of the sealed bearing, the piston 19 can support the liquid-conducting column 23, and the liquid-conducting column 23 is still rotating smoothly. The outward movement of the extension rod 18 is displaced by connecting the arc rod 15. In this way, the corner top plate 6 and the side top plate 5 connected thereto can be displaced out of the groove 4, thereby completing the expansion action for the top surface area of the AGV trolley, and this expansion action has a certain accuracy. The control module 32 can control the pump body to stop working at any time, and can also control the on and off power of the air pressure regulating solenoid valve, the switch solenoid valve, and the stator winding 13 through the relay; By completing the above actions, the top surface area of the AGV is expanded and adapted to the floor space of the goods stacked on the ground, thereby avoiding the problem that the goods on the AGV are forced to be stacked too high and easily tipped over and damaged during transportation.

For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations.
