Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of tunnel construction, and in particular to a tunnel material transport vehicle automatic driving sensor protection support. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the process of shield tunnel construction, the horizontal transportation part is mainly composed of rail tunnel material transport vehicles as transportation tools. In order to eliminate the safety hazards caused by the limitations of human attention and observation ability on vehicle operation, an automatic driving system of the material transport vehicle is designed by using artificial intelligence and sensing technology, which integrates the surrounding condition detection, position positioning and operation strategy implementation into the automatic driving system for automatic operation. The automatic driving relies on the sensor detection signals at each part of the vehicle body to judge the surrounding situation of the vehicle. The existing sensor supports applied on the locomotive do not have protection (protection) function. In the unmanned driving environment of the tunnel material vehicle, the sensor is more likely to cause misalignment and failure due to collision and pollution. The existing common detection device protection cover does not have self-cleaning function and signal shielding function. When the equipment is started and debugged and the effect is detected, more manpower is needed to disassemble and assemble frequently, which increases the maintenance workload and also prolongs the downtime.

[0003] The existing technology is temporarily fixed when installing the sensor, and the installation method is not stable. During use, it is easy to cause displacement or sensor falling off risk, and has an impact on the judgment of the entire automatic driving system to the surrounding environment. In addition, the sensor needs to be positioned on the existing structure of the transport vehicle, and it is necessary to find a position that is convenient for binding, buckling and sticking. Such fixing method is mostly one-time, and if the sensor needs to be replaced, it needs to be fixed again. In addition, the sensor does not have the function of protecting it after installation. Since the material transport vehicle operates in the tunnel construction environment, the phenomena of water splashing, dust and physical impact in the environment are more serious, which is easy to cause damage to the sensor. After the sensor is installed, it needs to be cleaned manually. Some positions, such as the bottom of the vehicle and the sensors between each compartment, are difficult to clean completely. SUMMARY

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the present application provides a tunnel material transport vehicle automatic driving sensor protection support, which solves the technical problems that the automatic driving sensor of the tunnel material transport vehicle in the prior art does not have protection function and the surface of the sensor is not easy to clean.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, not all. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0019] As Figure 1 shown, the present application provides a tunnel material transport vehicle automatic driving sensor protection support, which comprises a fixed rod 2, comprising a first end for fixing to an existing structure or device and a second end for installing a sensor 7 to be protected; a protection cover 5 rotatably connected to the fixed rod and used to cover the sensor 7 to be protected, the protection cover 5 is provided with a cleaning brush 6 for cleaning the sensor to be protected, and a window is provided on the protection cover 5 for signal transmission of the sensor 7 to be protected, and a transparent window is connected to the window.

[0020] Preferably, the transparent window 5 comprises a window sash connected to the protective cover by a hinge. A hinged window sash can be installed on the window of the protective cover 5, and a locking pin is installed on the side of the window sash opposite to the hinge to achieve the locking of the window. After the sensor 7 is installed, the window sash is closed to prevent general physical damage to the sensor 7 and to prevent water splash damage.

[0021] Preferably, the protective cover 5 is made of metal, and the window sash is made of non-metal transparent material. The protective cover 5 can be made of carbon steel, stainless steel, cast aluminum, etc. The carbon steel must be coated with anti-rust paint.

The sensor 7 in the protective cover 5 can be cleaned without opening the protective cover 5, avoiding the repeated disassembly and assembly of the protective cover 5 during cleaning. During the rotation of the protective cover 5, the cleaning brush 6 can completely clean the sensor 7 in all directions. When the window of the protective cover is opened and the window is facing downward, the dust can be discharged. When the window is facing away from the emission surface of the sensor 7, it can play a signal shielding role, and thus the signal shielding test of each sensor 7 can be performed without increasing the equipment.

[0023] Preferably, the protective cover 5 is provided with a sleeve 8 for the fixing rod 2, the sleeve 8 is fixed on the rotary bearing 4, the protective cover 5 is fixed in position by a latch 9, and the sleeve 8 and the fixing rod 2 are respectively provided with insertion holes for the insertion of the latch 9. When the protective cover 5 is rotated and adjusted to the side where the window is facing the emission surface of the sensor 7, the latch 9 is inserted into the insertion hole. The insertion holes on the sleeve 8 and the fixing rod 2 should correspond to each other when the window is facing the emission surface of the sensor 7.

[0024] Preferably, the protective cover 5 is in the shape of a square, one side of the protective cover is provided with the window, and the other three sides are respectively fixed with at least one cleaning brush 6.

The fixing rod 2 can be a hollow rod, and the fixing rod 2 is provided with a wire 3 for connecting the transport vehicle and the sensor 7. The wire 3 can be connected from the sensor 7 to the control system on the transport vehicle, thereby controlling the sensor 7 to work and ensuring its power supply.

[0026] Preferably, the first end of the fixed rod 2 is formed with a fixing seat 1 having a diameter larger than that of the fixed rod 2 and used for fixing to the existing structure or equipment. In the embodiment, the fixing seat 1 has a diameter larger than that of the fixed rod 2, so as to increase the contact area with the transport vehicle and make the whole structure more stable. The fixing seat 1 is fixed to the transport vehicle by bolts, so as to improve the flexibility of the installation position of the sensor 7 and facilitate the installation.

[0027] Preferably, the second end of the fixed rod 2 is formed with a flange used for fixing the sensor 7, and the sensor 7 is fixed to the flange by bolts. Since the sensor 7 is fixed to the flange by bolts, the danger of falling of the sensor 7 is avoided. When the sensor 7 is replaced, the sensor 7 is only needed to be removed from the protection support, and then a new sensor 7 is installed to the protection support by standard bolts, so as to facilitate the replacement of the sensor 7.

[0028] Preferably, the side of the flange for fixing the sensor 7 is provided with a shock pad, so as to reduce the influence of the vibration of the transport vehicle on the sensor 7 during operation and reduce the damage of the sensor 7.
