Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of smart construction site technology, and more specifically, to a method for purifying dust at a construction site using a water curtain and a water curtain purification robot. Background Technology

[0002] Dust is frequently generated at construction sites, seriously affecting the health of construction workers and, in some cases, impairing visibility and thus disrupting construction progress. Current methods primarily use blowers to disperse the dust, but blower airflow control is difficult, and inappropriate airflow can affect the stability of certain facilities at the construction site, even posing safety hazards. This invention aims to solve this technical problem. Summary of the Invention

[0016] If neither the first detection data nor the second detection data is empty, then the first distance between the personnel position and the construction machinery position is calculated. If the first distance is greater than the distance threshold, then the construction scenario is determined to be the third construction scenario; otherwise, the construction scenario is determined to be the second construction scenario.

[0028] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0029] This invention deploys a water curtain purification robot that can be controlled automatically or manually in the construction site. First, it detects and acquires the detection data of the construction site, and analyzes the current construction scene and dust distribution data of the construction site. Based on this, the optimal purification plan can be determined, and the water curtain purification robot can be controlled to execute the purification plan, thereby achieving rapid purification of the construction site and effectively reducing the dust concentration. Attached Figure Description

It should be understood that the following drawings only show some embodiments of the present invention and should not be regarded as a limitation on the scope.

[0032] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the main structure of a water curtain purification robot disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention;

[0033] Figure 3 This is a functional structure diagram of a water curtain purification robot disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0034] Please see Figure 1 This invention discloses a method for purifying dust at a construction site using a water curtain, comprising the following steps:

[0035] The construction scenario and dust data are determined based on the testing data of the construction site;

[0036] A purification plan is determined based on the construction scenario and the dust data, and a water curtain purification robot is controlled to purify the dust at the construction site according to the purification plan.

[0037] Deploying self-controlled or human-controlled water curtain purification robots in the construction site first detects and acquires data about the construction site. Based on this data, the current construction scenario, dust distribution, concentration, and other information can be analyzed. The optimal purification plan can then be determined, and the water curtain purification robots can be controlled to execute the purification plan, thereby achieving rapid purification of the construction site and effectively reducing dust concentration.

[0038] Optionally, the water curtain purification robot includes a detection module, a water curtain module, a walking module, a control module, and a power module.

[0039] See Figure 2 As shown, the water curtain purification robot involved in this invention mainly includes the aforementioned functional modules. The detection module, walking module, control module, and power module are not shown in the figure and can be implemented using existing technology. The water curtain module includes upper spray nozzles, a lower water receiving pool, and a water supply pipe (including a water pump) connecting the upper spray nozzles and the lower water receiving pool. The water pump delivers water from the lower water receiving pool to each upper spray nozzle. Multiple upper spray nozzles simultaneously release water into the receiving pool, thus forming multiple water columns, which in turn form a water curtain. The water curtain purification robot can absorb and purify airborne dust by moving back and forth on the construction site using the water curtain.

[0040] It should be noted that the detection module does not necessarily have to be deployed on the water curtain purification robot. It can be deployed at a suitable height within the construction site. In this case, the water curtain purification robot only needs to be equipped with a communication module capable of communication, and can obtain the detection data from the external detection module through short-range communication. Setting the detection module as an external device can avoid the problem of limited detection range caused by insufficient height of the water curtain purification robot.

[0041] Optionally, the water curtain purification robot further includes a negative pressure module, which is located behind the water curtain module and faces away from the purification direction of the water curtain purification robot.

[0042] In this embodiment, to further enhance the purification effect, a negative pressure module (e.g., a fan) is also installed behind the water curtain. When the negative pressure module is activated, it generates negative pressure, which in turn causes airflow. This allows the dust-laden airflow to actively flow towards the water curtain, thus achieving rapid dust purification without requiring the water curtain purification robot to move. Of course, the water curtain purification robot can also use the negative pressure module during movement, which can further improve purification efficiency.

[0043] Optionally, determining the construction scenario and dust data based on the detection data of the construction site includes:

[0044] Based on the detection data of the construction site, the personnel and construction machinery at the construction site are identified to obtain the first detection data of the personnel and the second detection data of the construction machinery. The construction scenario is determined based on the first detection data and / or the second detection data.

[0045] In addition, the dust source area is determined based on the first detection data and / or the second detection data, and dust data related to the dust source area is extracted.

[0046] In this embodiment, the present invention determines the specific construction scenario based on the personnel and construction machinery at the construction site, and identifies the area where the personnel and construction machinery are located as the dust source area, and then extracts the dust data of the area.

[0047] It should be noted that the identification of personnel and construction machinery can be accomplished using image recognition technology, or by identifying and locating audio data from the construction site. For example, there are clear differences between purely manual and mechanical operations.

[0048] Optionally, the first detection data includes the location of personnel, and the second detection data includes the location of construction machinery;

[0049] The step of determining the construction scenario based on the first detection data and / or the second detection data includes:

[0050] If the first detection data is empty, then the construction scenario is determined to be the first construction scenario;

[0051] If the second detection data is empty, then the construction scenario is determined to be the second construction scenario;

[0052] If neither the first detection data nor the second detection data is empty, then the first distance between the personnel position and the construction machinery position is calculated. If the first distance is greater than the distance threshold, then the construction scenario is determined to be the third construction scenario; otherwise, the construction scenario is determined to be the second construction scenario.

[0053] In this embodiment, the construction site includes automated mechanical operations (including remote-controlled operations) and manual operations by workers, corresponding to the first construction scenario and the second construction scenario, respectively. This invention identifies the construction scenario based on the presence or absence of personnel and machinery within it.

[0054] Another possibility is that the machinery operates automatically while workers observe and direct it, and workers use the machinery to operate. This invention further distinguishes between the two based on the distance between the personnel and the construction machinery. When the distance is large, it is determined to be the third construction scenario, where the machinery operates automatically while workers observe it. When the distance is small, it is determined to be the second construction scenario, where workers use the machinery to operate.

[0055] Optionally, when the construction scenario is the first construction scenario, determining the purification plan based on the construction scenario and the dust data includes:

[0056] A second distance is determined based on the first construction scenario, and a first purification path is determined based on the second distance; then, a first water curtain velocity is determined based on the dust data.

[0057] A first purification scheme is generated based on the first purification path and the first water curtain velocity.

[0058] In this embodiment, since no personnel are present in the first construction scenario, the health of personnel does not need to be considered. Essentially, only the "visibility" of the automated machinery needs to be considered, such as the dust concentration being lower than the minimum identifiable clarity of the machinery's camera. Therefore, this invention determines a second distance corresponding to the first construction scenario and, based on this second distance, determines a curve (such as a circle) around the work area, i.e., the dust center, which serves as the purification path for the water curtain purification robot. Simultaneously, an appropriate first water curtain velocity is determined based on the dust concentration; the higher the dust concentration, the higher the first water curtain velocity, thereby increasing the dust purification rate per unit time. As the water curtain purification robot reciprocates around the first purification path, it can confine the dust within the first purification path, thereby reducing the spread of dust in the construction site.

[0059] Optionally, when the construction scenario is the second construction scenario, determining the purification plan based on the construction scenario and the dust data includes:

[0060] A third distance is determined based on the second construction scenario, and a second purification path is determined based on the third distance; then, a second water curtain velocity is determined based on the dust data.

[0061] A second purification scheme is generated based on the second purification path and the second water curtain velocity.

[0062] In this embodiment, when there is no machinery but personnel working at the construction site, the primary consideration is the health of the personnel, i.e., purifying the dust at a faster rate. To address this, the present invention determines a third distance based on the second construction scenario, and similarly generates a curve (such as a circle) around the work area, i.e., the center of the dust, which serves as the purification path for the water curtain purification robot. Furthermore, the method for determining the second water curtain speed is the same as described above and will not be repeated. As the water curtain purification robot reciprocates around the second purification path, it can confine the dust within the second purification path, reducing not only the spread of dust at the construction site but also appropriately lowering the dust concentration within the second purification path.

[0063] Optionally, the second distance is greater than the third distance, and the speed of the first water curtain is less than the speed of the second water curtain.

[0064] In this embodiment, since the operating machinery only needs to consider "visibility," while personnel need to consider their health, the technical goals pursued in the two construction scenarios are significantly different. Therefore, for the former, the water curtain purification robot in the first construction scenario can perform dust purification operations from a greater distance. Although the purification rate is slightly slower, it ensures that the water curtain purification robot is not damaged by the operating machinery and also guarantees sufficient "visibility" for the operating machinery. For the latter, the water curtain purification robot in the second construction scenario operates closer to the personnel. At this point, the dust has not yet dispersed, so it can absorb and purify the dust at a faster rate, protecting the health of the construction personnel. This is also beneficial to the health of other personnel outside the work area. Furthermore, since the "visibility" requirement for the operating machinery in the first construction scenario is lower than the health requirement for personnel, the speed of the first water curtain can be set lower than the speed of the second water curtain at the same dust concentration.

[0065] Furthermore, the aforementioned third construction scenario involves automated machinery operation with personnel observing and directing from the sidelines. While this scenario demands higher visibility from personnel, the distance is generally considerable, so there's no need to significantly increase health requirements. Therefore, a third purification scheme, positioned between the first and second purification schemes, is adopted. Details are as follows:

[0066] When the construction scenario is the third construction scenario, determining the purification plan based on the construction scenario and the dust data includes:

[0067] A fourth distance is determined based on the third construction scenario, and a third purification path is determined based on the fourth distance; then, a third water curtain velocity is determined based on the dust data.

[0068] A third purification scheme is generated based on the third purification path and the third water curtain velocity;

[0069] Wherein, the fourth distance is greater than the third distance and less than the second distance, and the third water curtain speed is greater than the first water curtain speed and less than the second water curtain speed.
