Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of automatic detection devices, and in particular relates to a device for automatically detecting three-dimensional information of a pipe segment steel mold. Background Art

[0002] Precast segments are primarily used in tunneling projects, particularly in subway shield tunnel construction. Precast segment construction technology offers high efficiency and a wide range of applications. Precast segments are primarily manufactured using high-precision steel molds, which are then poured into concrete. The production process utilizes multiple molds in a fully automated assembly line, requiring high standards for dimensional tolerance, accuracy, and consistency.

[0003] To ensure the production quality of the pipe segments, the shape and dimensional accuracy of the inner cavity of the steel mold need to be inspected and monitored during the production process. However, due to the large size of the steel mold (usually approximately 5 meters long, 2 meters wide, 0.6 meters thick, and with a curved inner mold), conventional laser trackers can meet the needs of fast measurement and high precision, but require testers to manually place measurement points, resulting in extremely low detection efficiency and prone to human errors, which cannot meet the requirements of assembly line operations. Other three-coordinate detection methods are limited in the number of detection points and cannot meet the requirements. The large-scale robotic arm plus ground rail solution has high testing costs, extremely high requirements for the operating environment, and is difficult to maintain. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problem that the existing steel mold is large in size (usually about 5 meters long, 2 meters wide, 0.6 meters thick, and has a curved inner mold). Conventional laser trackers can meet the needs of fast measurement and high precision, but require testers to manually place measurement points, the detection efficiency is extremely low, and it is easy to produce human errors, which cannot meet the requirements of assembly line operations. Other three-coordinate detection methods are limited in the detection points and cannot meet the requirements. The large-scale robotic arm plus ground rail solution has high testing costs, extremely high requirements for the use environment, and is difficult to maintain. Therefore, a three-dimensional information automatic detection device for pipe segment steel molds is proposed.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a device for automatically detecting three-dimensional information of a segment steel mold, comprising:

[0006] A production line track, on which a transport trolley and a steel structure frame are arranged, a fixed bracket is connected to the steel structure frame, an optical tracker is connected to the fixed bracket, and a segment steel mold is positioned on the transport trolley;

[0007] a mobile assembly connected to the steel structural frame;

[0008] The visual monitoring unit comprises a rotating component and a structured light 3D camera, wherein the structured light 3D camera is connected to the rotating component, and the rotating component is connected to the moving component.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0010] The moving assembly includes an X-axis linear motor, a Y-axis linear motor and a Z-axis arm. The X-axis linear motor is connected to the top of the steel structure frame, the Y-axis linear motor is connected to the X-axis linear motor, and the Z-axis arm is connected to the Y-axis linear motor.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0012] The cross section of the fixing bracket is V-shaped, with both ends located outside the X-axis linear motor, and the optical tracker is located in the middle of the fixing bracket.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0014] The structured light 3D camera is provided with a self-luminous tracker, and the self-luminous tracker is provided with a plurality of infrared light emitting points.

[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0019] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0020] In the present invention, a transport trolley and a steel structure frame are arranged on the production line track, the pipe segment steel mold is placed on the transport trolley, a mobile component that can move in the X / Y / Z axes is arranged on the steel structure frame, and a rotating component is arranged at the tail of the mobile component. The structured light 3D camera is connected to the rotating component via a camera connecting plate, and the optical tracker is connected to the steel structure frame via a fixed bracket, so that the structured light 3D camera can not only move in direction but also adjust the angle. At the same time, a self-luminous tracker is arranged on the structured light 3D camera. The self-luminous tracker has 7 light-emitting surfaces, each of which has 4 infrared light emission points. The shape formed by the 4 infrared light emission points in each surface is different. The optical tracker can capture the position of the light-emitting points and distinguish the corresponding light-emitting surfaces based on the shape characteristics of each of the 4 infrared light emission points. As long as the optical tracker can capture any one or more light-emitting surfaces of the tracker, it can capture the position information of the tracker itself, realizing automatic collection and high-precision detection of 3D information of the inner cavity of large-sized steel molds, greatly reducing the difficulty of system installation and debugging, lowering the requirements for the use environment, and reducing the maintenance requirements of the system.
