Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of construction tools, and more specifically, to an intelligent construction scaffolding system. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional scaffolding has a single function, and its height needs to be adjusted manually according to the site conditions. For ceiling construction work, such as painting, where the ceiling height varies, the scaffolding needs to be moved frequently and its height needs to be manually adjusted constantly according to the changes in ceiling height. This greatly increases the workload of construction workers and slows down the construction efficiency.

[0003] In view of the above, this application is hereby submitted. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an intelligent building scaffolding system that can adaptively adjust its height according to the actual conditions of the construction site. It is particularly suitable for ceiling construction, which can effectively reduce the extra workload of construction workers and improve construction efficiency.

[0005] The embodiments of the present invention are implemented as follows:

[0006] An intelligent building scaffolding system includes: a frame, a control module, and a distance measuring module.

[0007] Both the control module and the ranging module are located on the frame, which has a lifting assembly. Both the ranging module and the lifting assembly are connected to the control module via signals.

[0008] The distance measuring module is used to detect the distance from the support surface of the lifting assembly to the ceiling. The control module is used to input the height data of the worker, and controls the lifting module to adjust its height so that the distance from the support surface to the ceiling is adapted to the height data.

[0009] Furthermore, intelligent building scaffolding systems also include: walking mechanisms, locking mechanisms, counterweights, and vision modules.

[0010] The traveling mechanism is installed at the bottom of the frame and is used to drive the frame to move.

[0011] The locking mechanism works in conjunction with the traveling mechanism to lock the traveling mechanism in place.

[0012] The counterweight is installed at the bottom of the frame.

[0013] The vision module is mounted on the frame.

[0014] The walking mechanism, locking mechanism, and vision module are all connected to the control module via signals.

[0015] The ranging module is also used in conjunction with the vision module to acquire on-site data of the construction site, and the control module is used to complete the mapping of the construction site based on the on-site data.

[0016] The control module is also used to control the walking mechanism so that the frame moves gradually within the construction site.

[0017] Furthermore, the intelligent building scaffolding system also includes a projection module.

[0018] The ranging module is also used in conjunction with the vision module to acquire ceiling data at the construction site. The control module is used to complete the drawing of the ceiling at the construction site based on the ceiling data and determine the correspondence between the digital graphics of the construction site and the digital graphics of the ceiling.

[0019] At the start of the operation, the control module moves the walking mechanism to a corner of the ceiling as the starting position. The direction of one edge of the ceiling is designated as the first direction, and the direction of the other edge is designated as the second direction. The control module then controls the projection module to project a first reference line and a second reference line. The first reference line is positioned along the first direction and spaced apart from the edge of the ceiling, while the second reference line is positioned along the second direction and also spaced apart from the edge of the ceiling. The first reference line, the second reference line, and the edge of the ceiling define the current construction area.

[0020] After the current construction area is completed, the control module controls the walking mechanism to move a distance equal to the length of a first reference line in the first direction, or a distance equal to the length of a second reference line in the second direction, in order to update the current construction area.

[0021] Furthermore, the control module is also used to acquire image data of the current construction area through the vision module, and to determine the unfinished area based on the image data of the current construction area, and to control the projection module to mark the unfinished area.

[0022] Furthermore, when determining the unfinished area, if the boundaries of the unfinished area all contain the first reference line / second reference line, and the length ratio of the first reference line / second reference line corresponding to the unfinished area exceeds the proportional threshold, then the first reference line / second reference line is moved inward to the position of the edge of the unfinished area that is farthest from the first reference line / second reference line.

[0023] Furthermore, the control module is also used to acquire image data outside the first reference line / second reference line through the vision module to determine the overcompletion area.

[0024] If the length of the first reference line / second reference line corresponding to the overachievement area exceeds the proportion threshold, the first reference line / second reference line will be moved to the position of the edge of the overachievement area that is closest to the first reference line / second reference line.

[0025] Furthermore, along the length direction of the first reference line / second reference line, if the distance between the edge of the over-completion area far from the first reference line / second reference line and the first reference line / second reference line increases or decreases, the control module controls the vision module and the ranging module to detect whether the travel direction deviates from the first direction or the second direction.

[0026] Furthermore, when the boundaries of the unfinished areas all include the first reference line / second reference line, if the distance between the edge of the unfinished area far from the first reference line / second reference line and the first reference line / second reference line increases or decreases along the length direction of the first reference line / second reference line, the control module controls the vision module and the ranging module to detect whether the travel direction deviates from the first direction or the second direction.

[0027] The beneficial effects of the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention include:

[0028] The intelligent building scaffolding system provided in this embodiment of the invention can adaptively adjust its height according to the actual working conditions to meet construction needs and avoid manual adjustment by workers.

[0029] The control module is also used to control the walking mechanism to move the scaffolding gradually within the construction site. This eliminates the need for workers to frequently move the scaffolding manually, greatly improving work efficiency. For tasks such as ceiling painting that require frequent scaffolding movement, it can effectively reduce the workload of construction workers.

[0030] Overall, the intelligent building scaffolding system provided by the embodiments of the present invention can adaptively adjust its height according to the actual conditions of the construction site, and is particularly suitable for ceiling construction. It can effectively reduce the extra workload of construction workers and improve construction efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0039] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments.

[0040] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the invention.

[0041] The terms “first”, “second”, etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be interpreted as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0042] Furthermore, the terms "parallel" and "perpendicular" do not imply that components must be absolutely parallel or perpendicular, but rather that they can be slightly tilted. For example, "parallel" simply means that its direction is more parallel than "perpendicular," not that the structure must be perfectly parallel, but that it can be slightly tilted.

[0043] In the description of this invention, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0044] This embodiment provides an intelligent building scaffolding system, which includes: a scaffold, a control module, and a distance measuring module.

[0045] Both the control module and the distance measuring module are located on the frame. The frame has a lifting component, which is used to adjust the height of the frame's bearing surface (i.e., the position where workers can stand).

[0046] Both the ranging module and the lifting assembly are connected to the control module via signals and are controlled by the control module.

[0047] The distance measuring module is used to detect the distance from the bearing surface of the lifting assembly to the ceiling.

[0048] The control module is used to input the height data of the staff. The control module controls the lifting module to raise and lower so that the distance from its bearing surface to the ceiling is adapted to the height data.

[0049] The relationship between the distance from the lifting module's bearing surface to the ceiling and the height can be preset and saved in the control module.

[0050] Through the above design, the intelligent building scaffolding system can adaptively adjust its height according to the actual working conditions to meet construction needs and avoid manual adjustment by workers.

[0051] Overall, the intelligent building scaffolding system provided in this embodiment can adaptively adjust its height according to the actual conditions of the construction site, making it particularly suitable for ceiling construction. It can effectively reduce the extra workload of construction workers and improve construction efficiency.

[0052] In this embodiment, the intelligent building scaffolding system also includes: a walking mechanism, a locking mechanism, counterweights, and a vision module.

[0053] The traveling mechanism is installed at the bottom of the frame and is used to drive the frame to move.

[0054] The locking mechanism works in conjunction with the traveling mechanism to lock and unlock it. Once the frame has moved to the predetermined position, the locking mechanism locks the traveling mechanism to prevent slippage. When it is necessary to move the frame again, the locking mechanism is used to unlock the traveling mechanism.

[0055] Counterweights are installed at the bottom of the frame to maintain its stability.

[0056] The vision module is mounted on the frame.

[0057] The walking mechanism, locking mechanism, and vision module are all connected to the control module via signals.

[0058] The ranging module is also used in conjunction with the vision module to acquire on-site data of the construction site, and the control module is used to complete the mapping of the construction site based on the on-site data.

[0059] The control module is also used to control the walking mechanism to move the scaffolding gradually within the construction site. This eliminates the need for workers to frequently move the scaffolding manually, greatly improving work efficiency. For tasks such as ceiling painting that require frequent scaffolding movement, it can effectively reduce the workload of construction workers.

[0060] Furthermore, the intelligent building scaffolding system also includes a projection module.

[0061] The ranging module is also used in conjunction with the vision module to acquire ceiling data at the construction site. The control module is used to complete the drawing of the ceiling at the construction site based on the ceiling data and determine the correspondence between the digital graphics of the construction site and the digital graphics of the ceiling.

[0062] At the start of operation, the control module moves the walking mechanism to a corner of the ceiling as the starting position, such as... Figure 1 As shown. The direction of extension of one edge of the ceiling is taken as the first direction, and the direction of extension of the other edge of the ceiling is taken as the second direction. The control module controls the projection module to project the first reference line and the second reference line. The first reference line is set along the first direction and spaced apart from the edge of the ceiling, and the second reference line is set along the second direction and spaced apart from the edge of the ceiling. The first reference line, the second reference line, and the edge of the ceiling enclose the current construction area.

[0063] After the current construction area is completed, the control module controls the traveling mechanism to move a distance equal to the length of a first reference line in the first direction, or a distance equal to the length of a second reference line in the second direction, to update the current construction area. Figure 2 As shown.

[0064] After reaching the other boundary of the ceiling along the first direction, you can return to the side corresponding to the starting position to determine the new current construction area, such as... Figure 3 As shown. Alternatively, you can directly move in the second direction by the length of the second reference line to determine the new current construction area, such as... Figure 4 As shown.

[0065] It should be noted that the lengths of the first and second reference lines can be matched based on the height data input into the control module. For staff of different heights, the arm lengths are different, and the size of the area that the arm can cover during the painting process is different. The correspondence between the lengths of the first and second reference lines and the height can be set in advance and saved in the control module according to the actual situation.

[0066] During construction, the control module is also used to acquire image data of the current construction area through the vision module. Based on this image data, the control module identifies unfinished areas and controls the projection module to mark them. Figure 5 As shown, this serves as a reminder to staff to avoid omissions.

[0067] Furthermore, when determining the incomplete area, if the boundaries of the incomplete area all contain the first reference line / second reference line, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the length ratio of the first reference line / second reference line corresponding to the unfinished area exceeds the proportional threshold (in Figure 6 If the length of the reference line corresponding to the unfinished area accounts for 75%, then the first reference line / second reference line will be moved inward to the position of the edge line of the unfinished area that is furthest from the first reference line / second reference line.

[0068] The ratio threshold can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0069] The control module is also used to acquire image data outside the first reference line / second reference line through the vision module to determine the overcompletion area, such as... Figure 7 As shown.

[0070] If the length of the first reference line / second reference line corresponding to the overachievement area exceeds the proportion threshold, the first reference line / second reference line will be moved to the position of the edge of the overachievement area that is closest to the first reference line / second reference line.

[0071] This design allows for adaptive adjustment of the first and second reference lines based on the actual working conditions of the construction workers, which helps to improve construction efficiency and reduce areas requiring repeated painting while ensuring the smooth progress of the painting work.

[0072] Furthermore, along the length direction of the first reference line / second reference line, if the distance between the edge of the over-completion area far from the first reference line / second reference line and the first reference line / second reference line increases or decreases, the control module controls the vision module and the ranging module to detect whether the travel direction deviates from the first direction or the second direction.

[0073] When the boundaries of the unfinished area all include the first reference line / second reference line, if the distance between the edge of the unfinished area away from the first reference line / second reference line and the first reference line / second reference line increases or decreases along the length direction of the first reference line / second reference line, the control module controls the vision module and the ranging module to detect whether the travel direction deviates from the first direction or the second direction.

[0074] This design effectively ensures the accuracy of movement control of the walking mechanism, enabling self-calibration and correction.

[0075] In summary, the intelligent building scaffolding system provided by the embodiments of the present invention can adaptively adjust its height according to the actual conditions of the construction site, making it particularly suitable for ceiling construction. It can effectively reduce the extra workload of construction workers and improve construction efficiency.

[0076] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention. Various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
