Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of industrial measurement technology, and in particular to an industrial photographic dynamic measurement system and method for large structural components. Background Technology

[0002] Large structural components are commonly found in building construction. They are physical structures assembled into building installations through production and assembly processes, primarily using materials such as metal, concrete, and wood. Besides common building and structural components, modern production and assembly techniques have led to increasingly complex and larger structural components in modern construction, such as high-rise building curtain walls.

[0003] Industrial photogrammetry, as a branch of surveying and mapping, has gradually developed into a new discipline within the industrial field by utilizing the theoretical methods and technical means of close-range photogrammetry and combining them with the characteristics of industrial products. Currently, industrial photogrammetry is increasingly developing towards diversified cameras, high precision, high automation, dynamic measurement, and multi-sensor collaboration.

[0004] Currently, there is an increasing amount of research and practical application of industrial photogrammetry for large structural components, including its application in the manufacturing and assembly processes of large equipment and structural components.

[0005] In the construction of large equipment and structural components, the assembly accuracy of key components is a crucial factor determining the manufacturing quality and service life of the final product. Dynamic measurement and data feedback during the assembly process can effectively assist in achieving efficient and precise assembly.

[0006] However, existing technologies for industrial photogrammetry of large components have not adequately addressed the following issues:

[0007] 1. Industrial photogrammetry for large structural components is inefficient. Due to their inherent structural characteristics, large structural components have complex curved surfaces and large structural areas. The number of photogrammetric markers deployed for these structural features is large. After a single station's data acquisition is completed, selecting and replacing photogrammetric points takes a considerable amount of time. Furthermore, it requires periodic dimensional calibration using a reference ruler, and the resulting redundancy is embedded in the final measurement results. This not only makes it impossible to determine the overall data stitching accuracy of large structural component measurements, but also makes the industrial photogrammetry method very inefficient.

[0008] 2. When measuring large structural components consisting of multiple unit cells, distinguishing the point clouds of different unit cells requires manually dividing the points into components in the software, and then managing them in layers or files; this is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inaccurate.

[0009] 3. Measuring large structural components requires targets or codes, reference rulers, marking points, etc., and there are many parts and accessories; they are inconvenient to carry or manage.

[0010] 4. The camera cannot rotate flexibly and stably to the optimal shooting angle during flight filming.

[0011] Currently, there is an urgent need for a measurement system and method with a reasonable structure and composition to solve the aforementioned bottleneck technical problems in dimensional control during the construction and installation of large structural components. Summary of the Invention

[0012] Based on the above analysis, the present invention aims to provide an industrial photogrammetry system and method for large structural components based on a flight unit, in order to solve the technical problems of low automation, low measurement efficiency, and inability to manage the same measurement data separately in the industrial measurement process of large structural components.

[0017] Furthermore, the measurement marking module also includes a variety of common marking points; the common markings are composed of marking circles of various radii; each marking circle of a radius corresponds to a nominal circle of the same radius or a mark circle of the same radius; the various common markings are set on the surface of the large structural component.

[0018] Furthermore, the industrial photogrammetry module includes a camera unit and a camera mounting unit; the camera unit is connected to the lower part of the flight module via the camera mounting unit.

[0019] Furthermore, the camera mounting unit includes a camera mounting connection unit and a camera damping unit; the camera damping unit is integrated into the camera mounting connection unit.

[0050] The following is combined Figures 1-12 The present invention’s industrial photographic dynamic measurement system and its measurement method for large structural components are specifically described using a preferred embodiment, namely, industrial scanning of a curved curtain wall 100-1 and a window 100-2 to be installed on the curtain wall 100-1.

[0051] A dynamic measurement system for industrial photography of large structural components is disclosed, used for geometrical and positional measurements of a large structural component 100, specifically measuring a curtain wall 100-1 and a window 100-2 to be installed on the curtain wall 100-1. The measured surfaces on the large structural component 100 are defined as the feed surfaces.

[0052] The large structural component industrial photogrammetry dynamic measurement system includes a flight module 1, an industrial photogrammetry module 2, a measurement marking module 3, and a central control module 4. The industrial photogrammetry module 2 is mounted on the flight module 1. The central control module 4 controls the flight module 1 and the industrial photogrammetry module 2. The measurement marking module 3 is installed on the large structural component 100. The measurement marking module 3 includes a composite coded marking plate 31 and various ordinary markings 32. For example... Figure 1 As shown.

[0053] Specifically, the composite coded signboard 31 includes a signboard 311, coded marks, and various nominal identifiers 313; the coded marks and nominal identifiers 313 are disposed on the same surface of the signboard 311. For example... Figure 2 As shown.

[0054] In this specific embodiment, the composite coding sign plate 31 is preferably made of metal. The back of the composite coding sign plate 31 is provided with magnetic material for easy and quick installation or removal onto the metal structure on the surface of the large structural component 100. Alternatively, a metal block can be specially installed on the surface of the large structural component 100 to conveniently fix the composite coding sign plate 31 onto the surface of the large structural component 100. The front of the composite coding sign plate 31 is provided with coding marks and nominal identifiers 313.

[0055] More specifically, the coded marker consists of a set of marker circles 312 with the same radius. Each coded marker is distinguishable due to the different number and positional relationships of the marker circles 312 it contains, thus possessing coded characteristics and becoming a unique nominal measurement feature in the measurement system. This nominal measurement feature is recorded in the photographic data processing module of the central control module 4 for the overall stitching of measurement data. In this specific embodiment, as... Figure 1 As shown, nine 3*3 marker circles 312 are used. Different numbers and positional relationships of marker circles 312 are used to form coded markers for different nominal measurement characteristics.

[0056] More specifically, the nominal markings 313 set on the composite coded marking plate 31 include at least two sets of nominal circles with different radii. These nominal circles are arranged individually or in a mixed arrangement, but the spacing between each set is a factory-calibrated standard size, and all are recorded in the photographic data processing module of the central control module 4, becoming nominal length characteristics for determining the scanned data size, thus all functioning as a reference ruler. Preferably, this specific embodiment uses three sets of nominal circles with different radii as nominal markings 313, set on the marking plate 311. The three sets of nominal markings 313 are the first nominal marking 313-1, the second nominal marking 313-2, and the third nominal marking 313-3, with radii decreasing sequentially. Figure 2 As shown.

[0057] Specifically, the measurement marking module 3 also includes various ordinary markings 32; these ordinary markings 32 are marking dots with different radii. The radius of the marking dot of each ordinary marking 32 corresponds to the radius of the nominal circle of a nominal marking 313; different ordinary markings 32 are set on different unit surfaces on the large structural component 100. More specifically, corresponding to the first nominal marking 313-1, the ordinary marking 32 corresponds to the first ordinary marking 32-1; corresponding to the third nominal marking 313-3, the ordinary marking 32 corresponds to the third ordinary marking 32-3.

[0058] Specifically, in this embodiment, the third ordinary mark 32-3 is adhered to the feed surface of the window 100-2, and multiple composite coded mark plates 31 are also adhered to it; the first ordinary mark 32-1 is adhered to the feed surface of the curtain wall 100-1, and multiple composite coded mark plates 31 are also adhered to it. Both the composite coded mark plates 31 and the ordinary marks 32 are asymmetrically arranged. In areas with significant curvature changes on the feed surface and at the boundary areas of each unit, a greater number of ordinary marks 32 or a greater number of composite coded mark plates 31 and ordinary marks 32 are arranged.

[0059] Specifically, the industrial photogrammetry module 2 includes a camera unit 21 and a camera mounting unit 22; the camera unit 21 is connected to the lower part of the flight module 1 via the camera mounting unit 22. For example... Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown.

[0060] More specifically, the flight module 1 has a flight module connection structure below it that connects to the industrial photogrammetry module 2, which is used to connect the camera mounting unit 22. Preferably, in this specific embodiment, the industrial photogrammetry module 2 is suspended on the lower part of the aircraft fuselage of the flight module 1, and the flight module connection structure on the lower part of the aircraft fuselage can be connected with bolts.

[0061] The camera unit 21 is the functional execution unit of the system of this invention. When shooting towards the feed surface, the shooting direction needs to be as close as possible to the normal of the feed surface, and the shooting moment needs to be as stable as possible. During flight, the flight module 1 needs to provide as many shooting positions and angles as possible. However, since the curvature change of the feed surface cannot be planned in detail, and the flight gate 1 itself changes its course at any time during flight, it will increase the instability of the shooting process of the camera unit 21. Therefore, it is necessary to design the necessary structure on the camera mounting unit 22 to support the camera unit 21 to rotate at any time to face the normal of the feed surface, and at the same time, to isolate the vibration of the flight module 1.

[0062] In this specific embodiment, the camera mounting unit 22 drives the camera unit 21 to perform pitch and planar rotation movements below the flight module 1. At the same time, the camera mounting unit 22 is also equipped with a device that can reduce the transmission of vibration from the flight module 1 to the camera unit 21.

[0063] More specifically, the camera unit 21 includes a camera body 211 and a camera body connecting assembly 212 disposed on the camera body. The camera body connecting assembly 212 is used to connect to the camera mounting unit 22. In this specific embodiment, the camera body connecting assembly 212 is a housing integrating the camera body 211. The housing has camera screw holes 2121 and camera tip holes 2122 on its two sides. The camera screw holes 2121 and camera tip holes 2122 are used to connect to the camera mounting unit 22 and form the tilt and rotation center line of the camera body 211. The camera body 211 integrates conventional camera modules such as a camera head 2111 and a flash 2112. The camera head 2111 uses different lenses depending on the actual shooting needs.

[0064] More specifically, the camera mounting unit 22 includes a pitch rotation assembly 221, a pitch rotation counterweight assembly 222, a horizontal rotation assembly 223, and a bridge plate assembly 224. Each of these assemblies includes its own camera mounting connection unit and camera damping unit; the camera damping unit is integrated into the camera mounting connection unit. Preferably, the camera damping unit includes one or more sets of elastic elements, each set comprising at least two disc springs stacked together; the camera mounting connection unit includes a screw or bolt and fasteners such as elastic washers, flat washers, and lock nuts mounted on the screw or bolt, with the disc springs, acting as elastic elements, interlacing between the fasteners and the connected structural components. This composite structure, where the camera damping unit is integrated into the camera mounting connection unit, can provide a damping effect while simultaneously serving a connecting function, maintaining the relative stability of the camera unit 21.

[0065] More specifically, the first end of the horizontal rotation component 223 is connected to the flight module connection structure, and the second end is fixedly connected to the middle of the bridge plate component 24; the two ends of the bridge plate component 24 are respectively connected to the pitch rotation component 221 and the pitch rotation counterweight component 222; the pitch rotation component 221 and the pitch rotation counterweight component 222 are respectively connected to the camera unit 21 through the camera screw hole 2121 and the camera top hole 2122.

[0066] More specifically, both the pitch rotation assembly 221 and the horizontal rotation assembly 223 are used to connect related components or units for rotational movement. Compared to the pitch rotation assembly 221, the horizontal rotation assembly 223 changes its outer frame 2214 to a horizontal rotation outer frame 2231. Specifically, based on the outer frame 2214 structure, it adds a mounting post 22311 connected to the flight module connection structure and mounting post bolts 22312 at the ends of the mounting post 22311. Figure 5 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown; the pitch rotation counterweight assembly 222 and the horizontal rotation assembly 223 have the same appearance and connection structure. The main function of the pitch rotation counterweight assembly 222 is to perform the counterweight function with the same mass as the pitch rotation assembly 221, maintaining the overall mass balance of the industrial photogrammetry module 2. At the same time, it is coaxial with the pitch rotation assembly 221 at the camera tip hole 2122, forming the pitch motion center line of the camera unit 21. Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown.

[0067] More specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the pitch and rotation assembly 221 includes a rotary motor 2211, a harmonic reducer unit 2212, an inner frame 2213, an outer frame 2214, a first vibration damping connection assembly 2215, and a second vibration damping connection assembly 2216. The harmonic reducer 2212 includes the harmonic reducer itself, couplings to both ends, and auxiliary parts for connection, including an intermediate connecting plate. The first vibration damping connection assembly 2215 and the second vibration damping connection assembly 2216 each include their respective camera mounting connection unit and camera damping unit.

[0068] The output shaft of the rotary motor 2211 is connected to the input end of the harmonic reducer unit 2212 via a first coupling. The output end of the harmonic reducer unit 2212 is connected to the second vibration damping connection assembly 2216 via a second coupling. The output end of the second vibration damping connection assembly 2216 is a bolt, which is screwed into the camera screw hole 2121.

[0069] The inner frame 2213 includes an inner frame bottom 22131, an inner frame body 22132 connected to the end face of the inner frame bottom 22131, and an inner frame lifting lug 22133 disposed on the outside of the inner frame body 22132, such as Figure 6 As shown.

[0070] The outer frame 2214 is a frame plate parallel to the cross-section of the inner frame 2213, including a frame plate body 22141 and a plurality of frame plate body through holes 22142 evenly distributed on the frame plate body 22141.

[0071] The inner frame bottom 22131 is connected to the outer shell of the harmonic reducer unit 2212. The inner frame 2213 is connected to the bridge plate assembly 224 through the first vibration damping connection assembly 2215 at the inner frame lug 22133, passing through the frame plate through hole 22142 of the outer frame 2214. Figure 7 As shown.

[0072] Preferred, such as Figure 8 As shown, the first vibration damping connection assembly 2215 includes a first connecting rod, preferably a bolt, which is disposed on the first side of the inner frame lug 22133 and passes through the inner frame lug 22133, the outer frame 2214, and the bridge plate assembly 224. A flat washer and an elastic washer are provided between the bolt head and the first side of the inner frame lug 22133; multiple disc springs, more preferably four, are provided between the second side of the inner frame lug 22133 and the first side of the outer frame 2214; multiple disc springs, more preferably two, are provided between the second side of the outer frame 2214 and the inner side of the bridge plate assembly 224; a spring washer, a flat washer, and a locking mechanism are provided on the outer side of the bridge plate assembly 224. This description corresponds to the assembly process. As long as it can play the role of connection and vibration reduction, the locking parts and vibration damping parts included in the first vibration damping connection assembly 2215 are suitable.

[0073] Preferred, such as Figure 8 As shown, the second vibration damping connection assembly 2216 is used to connect the pitch and rotation assembly 221 to the camera unit 21, specifically to the housing of the camera body connection assembly 212. In this specific embodiment, the second vibration damping connection assembly 2216 includes a second connecting rod with a guide rod portion and a threaded portion. The guide rod portion is connected to a coupling connected to the output end of the harmonic reducer; the threaded portion of the second connecting rod is connected to the camera screw hole 2121. A locking nut, a flat washer, an adjusting sleeve, an elastic washer, and a flat washer are sequentially arranged on the second connecting rod from the coupling to the camera screw hole 2121. The adjusting sleeve is a replaceable size sleeve to compensate for manufacturing errors in the parts of the industrial photogrammetry module 2.

[0074] Specifically, the pitch-rotation counterweight assembly 222 includes the inner frame 2213, outer frame 2214, and first vibration damping connection assembly 2215 of the horizontal rotation assembly 223. Since the function of the pitch-rotation counterweight assembly 222 is to provide counterweight to the horizontal rotation assembly 223 and to form the rotation axis at the top, it replaces the rotary motor 2211, harmonic reducer unit 2212, and two couplings in the horizontal rotation assembly 223 with a counterweight block 2221, matching the combined mass and center of mass of these components. Simultaneously, the second vibration damping connection assembly 2216 is installed in reverse, and the second connecting rod is replaced with a counterweight connecting rod. This involves making the end of the optical axis into a chamfered pyramid that matches the top cone hole inside the camera's top tip hole 2122, along with other locking parts, to form the counterweight connection assembly 2222.Figure 8 As shown. The chamfered pyramid design is to increase the contact area between the counterweight connecting rod and the camera unit 21. After the chamfered pyramid is fitted with the center hole, the threaded part of the counterweight connecting rod is connected to the threaded hole of the counterweight block 2221, and all fastening parts are connected. Finally, the fasteners on the counterweight connecting rod are locked onto the counterweight block 2221 with a lock nut.

[0075] Specifically, the horizontal rotation assembly 223 includes a rotary motor 2211, a harmonic reducer unit 2212, an inner frame 2213, and a first vibration damping connection assembly 2215, as well as a horizontal rotation outer frame 2231 and a horizontal connection assembly 2232. For example... Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown.

[0076] More specifically, the horizontally rotating outer frame 2231 includes an outer frame 2214; the outer frame 2214 includes a frame plate 22141 and multiple flight connection units; the flight connection unit includes mounting posts 22311, and mounting post bolts 22312 are provided on the mounting posts 22311. Specifically, frame plate through holes 22142 are evenly distributed on the frame plate 22141; preferably, this specific embodiment includes four mounting posts 22311 evenly distributed at the four vertices of a square on the frame plate 22141, and one mounting post bolt 22312 is screwed onto each mounting post. Figure 11 As shown. The flight module connection structure located on the lower part of the aircraft fuselage can be connected to the mounting column bolt 22312.

[0077] More specifically, the horizontal connecting assembly 2232 is used to connect the horizontal rotating assembly 223 to the bridge plate assembly 224. Preferably, the horizontal connecting assembly 2232 includes a horizontal connecting rod, which includes a horizontal connecting rod shaft portion and a horizontal connecting rod threaded portion. The horizontal connecting rod shaft portion connects to the second coupling in the horizontal connecting assembly 2232 that is connected to the harmonic reducer unit 2212, and the horizontal connecting rod threaded portion connects to the bridge plate assembly 224. On the horizontal connecting rod, between the second coupling and the outer side of the bridge plate assembly 224, an elastic washer, a flat washer, a lock nut, a horizontal rotation adjusting sleeve, an elastic washer, and a flat washer are sequentially arranged; on the horizontal connecting rod threaded portion, on the outer side of the bridge plate assembly 224, a plurality of disc springs, elastic washers, flat washers, and lock nuts are sequentially arranged.

[0104] S42, Settlement Data: The central control module 4, through the photography data processing module, performs shape and position calculation on the captured point cloud data based on the measured nominal features and nominal length features, and assigns size features to the point cloud data of the feed surface of the large structural component 100.

[0105] S43. Point cloud data component division: The point cloud data of the feed surface of the large structural component 100 is divided into regions by the photogrammetric data processing module; specifically in this embodiment, the point cloud data on the window 100-2 is distinguished as the tracking part and the point cloud data on the curtain wall 100-1 is distinguished as the reference part.

[0106] S44, Data Tracking: Through the tracking module, combined with the industrial photogrammetry module 2 carried by the flight module 1, the tracking module tracks and captures the area defined as the tracking unit's shooting area. The positional change of the tracking unit relative to the reference unit is calculated at the terminal of the central control module 4 until the two boundaries are aligned.
