Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of raw material yard transportation, and in particular to a method and system for detecting material blockage at the conveyor belt unloading port based on visual recognition. Background Technology

[0002] In the mineral and pulverized coal processing industry, belt conveyors are crucial transportation equipment, responsible for conveying materials in raw material yards. In steel production, to meet raw material supply requirements and improve the metallurgical properties of sintered ore, numerous operations are needed, including unloading, storing, conveying, batching, and mixing mineral raw materials. Therefore, a large number of unloading trolleys and belt conveyors are required to transport these materials. To meet the needs of multi-point and multi-location material distribution, material yards often use belt conveyor unloading trolleys, whose structure mainly consists of a frame, roller assemblies, idler roller assemblies, drive units, wheel assemblies, and hoppers. Simultaneously, to meet production demands, numerous belts are distributed throughout the material yard area. Belt conveyors offer advantages such as low noise, large conveying capacity, simple structure, convenient maintenance, and standardized components. The direct connection between belts is primarily achieved through belt hoppers. However, during the passage of powder through the hoppers, excessive flow or humidity can easily cause material to accumulate on the hopper walls, leading to hopper blockage and significantly impacting production.

[0003] Traditional contact sensors are prone to damage and have high maintenance costs due to harsh operating environments, while traditional non-contact detectors, such as ultrasonic detectors, also have extremely high environmental requirements. Furthermore, relying on operators to monitor the scene in real-time for extended periods is inefficient due to the numerous and complex images transmitted from various conveyor belts, and fatigue from prolonged monitoring can lead to missed detections. Therefore, this invention provides a method for detecting material blockage at the unloading port of a conveyor belt in a material yard, incorporating an auxiliary light source. This method monitors the material surface in the unloading hopper of the conveyor belt in real-time, uses image analysis to determine if blockage is present, and issues an alarm promptly, minimizing the serious economic losses caused by blockages. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the above problems, the present invention is proposed to provide a method and system for detecting material blockage at a belt unloading port based on visual recognition, which overcomes or at least partially solves the above problems.

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, the embodiments of this application disclose the following technical solutions:

[0006] A vision-based method for detecting material blockage at a conveyor belt unloading port includes:

[0007] S100. Equipped with a light source system, it provides a stable detection environment for detecting material blockage at the conveyor belt discharge port;

[0008] S200. Real-time acquisition of the current frame image of the unloading video stream of the belt conveyor unloading trolley, and sending the acquired current frame image of the belt unloading video stream to the image processing module;

[0009] S300. The image processing module processes the current frame image according to a preset image processing algorithm, obtains the image judgment result, and determines whether the current belt unloading port is blocked.

[0010] S400. When the image processing module determines that the current belt unloading port is blocked, it outputs an alarm message to the user.

[0011] Furthermore, in S100, a light source system is used. Specifically, the light source system is installed at a preset angle, and the change in material height is converted into a change in the height of the auxiliary light source laser by directly shining the laser on the unloading port of the belt conveyor. At the same time, in order to ensure stable lighting conditions in the working environment, it is also necessary to eliminate the overexposure caused by excessive sunlight on site.

[0012] Furthermore, in S300, the image processing module processes the current frame image according to a preset image processing algorithm, including: segmenting the current frame image by color, saturation, and brightness; selecting a region of interest (ROI) based on the target detection area; detecting the color, saturation, and brightness of the corresponding laser color within the ROI; and returning the blockage detection result when the number of pixels within the ROI that meet the color, saturation, and brightness values ​​reaches a set threshold.

[0013] Furthermore, in S300, the image processing module processes the current frame image according to a preset image processing algorithm, which also includes: setting up a target detection area and selecting a region of interest (ROI). Within this ROI, the color, saturation, and brightness of the corresponding laser color are detected. This area is responsible for detecting laser scattering caused by smoke and dust in the scene. When the number of pixels in the ROI that meet the color, saturation, and brightness values ​​reaches a set threshold, the dust emission result is returned to avoid interference with the material blockage detection.

[0014] This invention also discloses a vision-based detection system for material blockage at a conveyor belt unloading port, comprising: a conveyor belt blockage image acquisition module, a light source module, an image processing module, and an alarm module; wherein:

[0015] The belt conveyor blockage image acquisition module is used to acquire video images of material blockage at the unloading port of the belt conveyor in real time and obtain the current frame. The current frame image in the acquired belt unloading video stream is processed by an image processing algorithm to obtain the judgment result. It is also used to acquire belt unloading port blockage images and form a historical dataset of belt unloading port blockage images for comparison of detection effects.

[0016] The light source module is installed at a preset angle and converts the change in material height into a change in the height of the auxiliary light source laser by directly shining the laser on the unloading port of the belt conveyor. At the same time, in order to ensure stable lighting conditions in the working environment, it is also necessary to eliminate the overexposure caused by excessive sunlight on site.

[0017] The image processing module is used to perform algorithmic processing on the current frame image in the real-time acquired belt running video, and to detect the laser in the current frame image in real time. When the laser is detected in the target detection area of ​​the image, the blockage judgment result is output; when the laser is not detected in the target detection area of ​​the image, the normal unloading judgment result is output.

[0018] The alarm module is used to obtain the processing results of the current frame image by the image processing module. If the detection result of the frame image after algorithm processing is that the conveyor belt unloading port is blocked, the alarm device will notify the relevant person in charge in real time and provide a continuous alarm for a period of time to ensure that the relevant personnel can deal with it in a timely manner.

[0019] Furthermore, the belt conveyor blockage image acquisition device is a camera. The camera is installed directly above the unloading hopper of the belt conveyor to avoid interference with the detection scene when operators are working and clearing the hopper. The camera collects images of the blockage in the unloading hopper of the belt conveyor to form a historical database, which is used to check and verify the accuracy of the image processing algorithm.

[0020] Furthermore, the light source system adopts a line laser. The line laser is installed by placing the line laser emitter directly above the unloading hopper of the belt conveyor. The line laser is parallel to the belt feeding direction and shines directly into the unloading port, accompanied by changes in the material level.

[0021] Furthermore, the image processing module performs algorithmic processing on the current frame image in the real-time acquired belt operation video. Specifically, this includes: segmenting the current frame image by color, saturation, and brightness; selecting a region of interest (ROI) based on the target detection area; detecting the color, saturation, and brightness of the corresponding laser color within the ROI; and returning the blockage detection result when the number of pixels within the ROI that meet the color, saturation, and brightness values ​​reaches a set threshold.

[0022] Furthermore, the image processing module performs algorithmic processing on the current frame image in the real-time acquired conveyor belt operation video. Specifically, it also includes: setting up a target detection region and selecting a region of interest (ROI). Within this ROI, the color, saturation, and brightness of the corresponding laser color are detected. This region is responsible for detecting laser scattering caused by dust in the scene. When the number of pixels within the ROI that meet the color, saturation, and brightness values ​​reaches a set threshold, the dust emission result is returned to avoid interfering with the material blockage detection.

[0023] Furthermore, the alarm device is a buzzer. When the detection result obtained by the image processing algorithm indicates material blockage and no dust is generated, the buzzer will sound an alarm in real time to notify the relevant person in charge to confirm the degree of material blockage and handle it in a timely manner.

[0024] The beneficial effects of the above-described technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present invention include at least the following:

[0025] This invention discloses a vision-based method and system for detecting material blockage at the unloading port of a belt conveyor. It acquires real-time video of the unloading trolley of a belt conveyor and processes the current frame image. By adding a suitable light source system, the detection of the accumulated material is transformed into the detection of light. After image processing, if the material level rises due to accumulation and laser light accompanying the rise is detected within the target detection area, the blockage detection result is returned. Simultaneously, the system detects laser light scattered by dust within the target detection area, filtering out detection interference caused by dust, and notifies operators to handle the situation promptly via an alarm. This invention achieves automated and unmanned real-time dynamic detection of the unloading trolley status of a belt conveyor, improving detection efficiency and saving manpower.
