Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of image recognition and acquisition devices, and more specifically, to an image recognition and acquisition device and method for digital media. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, some home appliances have added cameras to their doors to capture images of items inside the appliance, which are then identified using image recognition technology.

[0003] In the prior art, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN111031238A provides an image acquisition method, device and home appliance for image recognition. When the opening angle of the door is within a first preset angle range and the angle between the camera and the door is within a second preset angle range, the field of view of the camera covers the cabinet of the home appliance. At this time, controlling the camera to acquire images of the items inside the cabinet can more accurately acquire images of the items inside the cabinet, and thus accurately perform image recognition based on the images of the items.

[0004] However, the device in this patent cannot be adapted to the location of food inside the appliance, especially the refrigerator. As a result, the device can only collect and identify food that is relatively centrally located inside the refrigerator. It cannot effectively collect and identify food that is located on the side or in the corner, which reduces the overall practicality of the device to some extent and makes it inconvenient to use.

[0005] Therefore, in view of the above-mentioned technical problems, it is necessary to provide an image recognition and acquisition device and method for digital media. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an image recognition and acquisition device and method for digital media to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, an embodiment of the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A digital media image recognition and acquisition device and method, comprising a housing;

[0009] The monitoring manual door assembly is located on one side of the inner wall of the box. The monitoring manual door assembly includes a hinge, a manual door is rotatably connected to one side of the hinge, a positioning block is fixedly connected to the front of the manual door, a handle is fixedly connected to one side of the positioning block, and a camera is installed on the back of the manual door.

[0010] A self-positioning monitoring component is provided; the self-positioning monitoring component is located on the front of the housing, and includes a rotating frame. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected inside the rotating frame. A monitoring and positioning door is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft. A motor is fixedly installed at one end of the top of the rotating frame. The output end of the motor is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft. An angular velocity sensor is fitted into the top of the monitoring and positioning door. A main controller is provided on one side of the monitoring and positioning door. The main controller, the angular velocity sensor, and the motor are electrically connected.

[0011] As a further improvement of the present invention, the manual door has an inner groove, and a concave shielding plate is fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the inner groove, and a magnetic block is fixedly installed inside the concave shielding plate.

[0012] As a further improvement of the present invention, the monitoring and positioning door has a positioning groove adapted to the positioning block inside. A rectangular groove is provided inside the monitoring and positioning door and on one side of the positioning groove. A concave shielding plate II is fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the rectangular groove. A magnetic block II is fixedly installed inside the concave shielding plate II.

[0013] As a further improvement of the present invention, one side of the second magnetic block and one side of the first magnetic block are opposite magnetic poles.

[0014] A method for acquiring images using an image recognition acquisition device for digital media includes the following steps:

[0015] S1. The camera on the manual door can monitor the position of food in the refrigerator inside the cabinet. After monitoring, the processed information can be transmitted to the angular velocity sensor. The angular velocity sensor can transmit the obtained information to the motor. The motor can indirectly drive the monitoring and positioning door to open to the working angle.

[0016] S2. After the monitoring and positioning door rotates to the working position, the manual door can be rotated by the operator applying external force. When rotating, the operator can use the handle to assist in the rotation. After the manual door rotates to a certain angle, the attraction between the magnetic block one inside the positioning block on the manual door and the magnetic block two inside the positioning groove can make the manual door automatically rotate to the working position. After rotation, the camera on it can collect and identify information about the food in the refrigerator.

[0017] As a further improvement of the present invention, the camera in step one specifically includes a monitoring module, one end of which is connected to a location information receiving module, and the other end of which is connected to a control module.

[0018] As a further improvement of the present invention, one end of the control module is connected to a calculation module, one end of the calculation module is connected to a data processing module, and one end of the data processing module is connected to an information feedback module.

[0019] As a further improvement of the present invention, one end of the information feedback module is connected to an information storage module, and one end of the information storage module is connected to the control module.

[0020] As a further improvement of the present invention, one end of the control module is also connected to an information output module, and one end of the information output module is connected to the other end of the information feedback module.

[0021] As a further improvement of the present invention, the monitoring module is used to detect the specific location of food inside the refrigerator, and the location information receiving module is used to receive the monitored location information.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this invention are:

[0023] This solution uses a camera on the manual door to monitor the position of food inside the refrigerator. The monitored information is then processed and transmitted to an angular velocity sensor, which in turn transmits the information to a motor. The motor then indirectly drives the monitoring and positioning door to open to the working angle. This design allows for easy repositioning of the manual door by staff. By limiting the position of the manual door, the camera can accurately capture and identify food items located on the sides and corners of the refrigerator. Furthermore, the device can be adaptively adjusted based on the position of the corresponding food items inside the refrigerator. This design significantly improves the overall practicality of the equipment and better meets the diverse needs of users. Attached Figure Description

All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] Example 1:

[0037] Please see Figure 1-6 A digital media image recognition and acquisition device and method, comprising a housing 1;

[0038] The monitoring manual door assembly 2 is located on one side of the inner wall of the housing 1. The monitoring manual door assembly 2 includes a hinge 21, and a manual door 22 is rotatably connected to one side of the hinge 21. The manual door 22 can be operated manually. A positioning block 23 is fixedly connected to the front of the manual door 22, and a handle 24 is fixedly connected to one side of the positioning block 23. The handle 24 is provided with anti-slip texture to facilitate the user's operation of the handle 24. A camera 27 is installed on the back of the manual door 22. The camera 27 is movable and takes pictures when the appliance door is opened to a certain angle.

[0039] A self-positioning monitoring component 3 is included. This component adaptively adjusts its angle based on the position of the food to be monitored inside the refrigerator. The self-positioning monitoring component 3 is located on the front of the refrigerator body 1. It includes a rotating frame 31, with a rotating shaft 32 rotatably connected inside. One end of the rotating shaft 32 is fixedly connected to a monitoring and positioning door 34. A motor 33, a miniature servo motor, is fixedly mounted on the top end of the rotating frame 31. The output end of the motor 33 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 32. An angular velocity sensor 4 is fitted into the top of the monitoring and positioning door 34, located at the rotatable connection between the refrigerator body 1 and the monitoring and positioning door 34, and is used to directly measure the opening angle of the door. A main controller 35 is located on one side of the monitoring and positioning door 34. The main controller 35, the angular velocity sensor 4, and the motor 33 are electrically connected.

[0040] The manual door 22 has an inner groove inside. A concave shielding plate 26 is fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the inner groove. A magnetic block 25 is fixedly installed inside the concave shielding plate 26. The concave shielding plate 26 is used to shield the magnetic force of other parts of the magnetic block 25 that are not facing the magnetic block 36. With this setting, the overall stable operation of the equipment can be guaranteed.

[0041] The monitoring and positioning door 34 has a positioning groove inside that matches the positioning block 23. A rectangular groove is provided inside the monitoring and positioning door 34 and on one side of the positioning groove. A concave shielding plate 37 is fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the rectangular groove. A magnetic block 36 is fixedly installed inside the concave shielding plate 37. The concave shielding plate 37 is used to shield the magnetic force of other parts of the magnetic block 25 that are not facing the magnetic block 36. With this setting, the overall stable operation of the equipment can be guaranteed.

[0042] One side of the second magnetic block 36 and one side of the first magnetic block 25 are opposite magnetic poles, and one side of the second magnetic block 36 and one side of the first magnetic block 25 can attract each other within a certain distance range.

[0043] A method for acquiring images using an image recognition acquisition device for digital media includes the following steps:

[0044] S1. The position of food in the refrigerator inside the cabinet 1 can be monitored by the camera 27 on the manual door 22. After monitoring, the processed information can be transmitted to the angular velocity sensor 4. The angular velocity sensor 4 can transmit the obtained information to the motor 33. The motor 33 can indirectly drive the monitoring and positioning door 34 to open to the working angle.

[0045] S2. After the monitoring and positioning door 34 rotates to the working position, the manual door 22 can be rotated by the operator applying external force. When rotating, the operator can be assisted by the handle 24. After the manual door 22 rotates to a certain angle, the attraction between the magnetic block 25 inside the positioning block 23 and the magnetic block 36 inside the positioning groove can make the manual door 22 automatically rotate to the working position. After rotation, the camera 27 on it can collect and identify information about the food in the refrigerator.

[0046] The camera 27 mentioned in step one specifically includes a monitoring module, which detects the specific location of food inside the refrigerator. One end of the monitoring module is connected to a location information receiving module, which receives the monitored location information. Another end of the location information receiving module is connected to a control module, which processes the received messages. A third end of the control module is connected to a calculation module, which performs effective calculations on the obtained data messages using a built-in algorithm. One end of the calculation module is connected to a data processing module, which processes the calculated information. Another end of the data processing module is connected to an information feedback module, which provides timely feedback on the processed information. A fourth end of the information feedback module is connected to an information storage module, which stores the processed information for later use. One end of the information storage module is connected to the control module, and one end of the control module is also connected to an information output module, which can indirectly output information after processing. One end of the information output module is connected to the other end of the information feedback module.

[0047] This solution uses a camera 27 on the manual door 22 to monitor the position of food inside the refrigerator. After monitoring, the processed information is transmitted to an angular velocity sensor 4, which in turn transmits the information to a motor 33. The motor 33 then indirectly drives the monitoring and positioning door 34 to open to the working angle. This design allows for easy movement of the manual door 22 to the working position by staff. By limiting the position of the manual door 22, the camera 27 can accurately capture and identify food located on the sides and corners inside the refrigerator. The device can also be adaptively adjusted according to the position of the corresponding food inside the refrigerator. This design greatly improves the overall practicality of the device and facilitates meeting the different needs of users.
