The robot gripper suction head sucks up the cover and turns it over to take a photo. According to the picture obtained by the photo, if the title page is recognized, it will be stamped. If the title page is not recognized, the page will continue to be turned over and photographed. If the title page is not recognized after turning the page n times in a row, it will directly proceed to the next step for processing. In this embodiment, n=3, that is, the title page is not recognized after turning the page n times in a row, and it will directly proceed to the next step for processing; but n can also be set to 2, 4, 5, .... After stamping, the system detects whether the book has folds or covers according to the folding detection mechanism. For books with folds and covers, the cover needs to be opened for gluing and edge sealing. For books without folds, no processing is done; finally, the book hinges and the opened back cover is hinged.

[0060] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the method for automated processing and procurement acceptance of books also includes step S19, abnormal book processing, the abnormal book processing includes: in the step S11, an industrial camera is used to photograph and identify the books, and the separated books are checked for overlap and accumulation, and abnormalities are recorded; in the step S15, a barcode camera is used to verify the printed and pasted barcodes, and books with verification errors will be recorded in the system; in the step S18, books that have not recognized the title page after turning the pages for n times are recorded in the system; the abnormal books are removed at the designated location and then handed over to manual processing.

[0061] In this application, if the title page is not recognized after turning the pages three times in a row, the stamping and labeling operations will not be performed, but the remaining steps will be performed. After all the steps are completed, the page will be removed from the designated sorting grid and processed manually.

[0065] Step S22, using a six-axis robot to continuously turn pages; should at least include book position detection and adjustment, automatic fixing and loosening, automatic opening of the book cover or back cover, and automatic opening of the inner pages of the book page by page. Automatically fix and loosen the book, automatically fix the book before the book enters the continuous page turning mechanism and adjusts its position to start page turning scanning, so that the book will not move during the page turning process. And automatically loosen the book after the book completes the page turning scanning work, so that it can be smoothly transported out of the page turning mechanism.

[0066] Step S23, during the page turning process of step S22, the collected book pages are continuously photographed using an industrial camera;

[0067] Step S24, sharpening the collected book page images and saving them, with the number of saved pages being no less than 20 pages.

[0068] The method for automatic sorting of books comprises the following steps:

[0069] Step S30, call number processing: query the current book PID data, reverse query the database catalog data, automatically generate the call number, and print and paste the call number in real time;

[0070] Step S31, automatic book sorting; the sorting robot automatically receives the corresponding books according to the sorting list provided by the book collection institution, and completes the book classification by reading the collection information of the book PID or RFID tag.

[0071] The present application also includes a book acquisition and editing system, including a book automated processing and procurement acceptance subsystem, a book cataloging subsystem and a book sorting subsystem; the book automated processing and procurement acceptance subsystem includes a barcode processing unit, an inner page processing unit, a title page processing unit and an exception processing unit.

[0072] The barcode processing unit includes: a single book separation module, which adopts manual batch stacking and automatic single book separation by machine, and can separate single books from a whole package of books. The separated books have no overlap and no accumulation, and are in a single book separation state that the system can perform subsequent processing.

[0073] The book ISBN barcode generation module uses a barcode camera to identify the book ISBN, and automatically identifies the book price through a recognition module trained by an artificial intelligence system. It compares the sampled ISBN code parsing results and book prices with the book order to complete automatic acceptance; based on the sampled ISBN code parsing results and barcode rules, it generates a barcode that uniquely corresponds to the book.

[0074] The first posture adjustment module adjusts the position of the book to a state that meets the system processing standards. The posture adjustment power adopts servo control to adjust the book to the calibrated whole position origin on one side of the page. During the posture adjustment process, different types of books will not be deformed, especially thin books will not be deformed.

[0075] The image acquisition module uses an industrial array camera to take photos of the back cover of the book. The system automatically recognizes the book price based on the collected photos of the back cover of the book. The system also relies on the photos of the back cover to analyze and recognize the optimal labeling position of the barcode on the back cover of the book. The automatic recognition process of the book price is as follows: after the book is separated into individual books, the ISBN number of the book is recognized through the collected image information on the back cover. At the same time, the original image data is appropriately processed to adapt to the training of the artificial intelligence system, and the automatic recognition of the book price is finally realized through system training. The binding of book price information and ISBN number information is completed. The order price information is queried and corrected through the software system.

[0076] Non-standard books and abnormally excluded books are processed manually, and machine and manual data are merged as the final financial settlement standard.

[0077] The back cover printing and pasting module prints the barcode generated by the book ISBN barcode generation module and pastes it to the optimal labeling position of the book back cover barcode; the system uses a barcode printer to print and paste it to the specified position of the book according to the generated barcode. The barcode is the identification of the book property registration and the identity mark of the book. Each book corresponds to a unique barcode in the system. The barcode is generated and printed in real time according to the existing system standards. After the barcode is pasted, it must be covered with a specific protective film. The protective film is a transparent film that is slightly larger than the barcode and has adhesiveness. It can protect the barcode and avoid wear and tear in the circulation link. When pasting, stick the film on the barcode to just cover the entire barcode. The machine automatically presses the film tightly so that the barcode and the protective film are tightly attached to the book. The system sets the total amount and remaining management function. When the total amount of barcodes, protective films and electronic labels reaches the set value, and the remaining number of barcodes, protective films and electronic labels is equal to or less than the set value, the system will stop and alarm.

[0078] The inner page processing unit includes: a second posture adjustment module, which uses servo control to adjust the book to one side of the page as the calibrated whole position origin; an inner page processing module, which adjusts the book posture to the edge, uses an industrial robot to turn the back cover, a folding detection mechanism to detect whether the book has folds or cover, affixes RFID tags and covers the inner pages with collection labels, and finally hinges the opened back cover.

[0079] The second posture adjustment module adjusts the position of the book to a state that meets the system processing standards. The posture adjustment power adopts servo control to adjust the book to the side of the page as the calibrated whole position origin. During the posture adjustment process, different types of books will not be deformed, especially thin books will not be deformed.

[0080] Inner page processing module, the book posture is adjusted to the edge. The book posture is adjusted to the edge first to ensure the establishment of the system reference point; according to the reference point and parameters such as the width and height of the book, an industrial robot is used to turn the back cover, and the robot gripper suction head is used to suck up and turn over the back cover; then the book is detected to see if it has folds or covers according to the folding detection mechanism. For books with folds and covers, the covers need to be opened for labeling, gluing and edge sealing. For books without folds, only labeling is performed; finally, the book is hinged to hinge the opened back cover.

[0081] The actions of turning the back cover, labeling, and gluing are all realized by a 6-axis industrial robot. The page turning and the operations after page turning are completed by different industrial robots. The collection logo is made of invisible ink to ensure that it is invisible in sunlight and can only be seen under ultraviolet light.

[0082] The title page processing unit includes: turning over the front and back of the book; using a robot gripper to suck up the cover and turn the page; at the same time, using an industrial camera to take pictures and identify them, and stamping the title page after it is identified.

[0083] When the book is processed in the title page processing module, the book's posture will be adjusted to ensure the establishment of the system reference point; based on the reference point and parameters such as the width and height of the book, an industrial robot will be used to turn the cover, and the robot's gripper suction head will suck up the cover and turn it over to take a picture; recognition will be carried out based on the picture taken, and if the title page is recognized, a stamp will be affixed, if the title page is not recognized, the page will be turned and photographed; after stamping, the system will detect whether the book has folds or covers based on the folding detection mechanism. For books with folds and covers, the covers need to be opened for gluing and edge sealing, and books without folds will not be processed; finally, the book is hinged and the opened back cover is hinged.

[0084] The exception handling unit includes a first exception recognition module, which uses an industrial camera to take pictures of books after ISBN barcode recognition, and can identify books whose physical state does not meet the system processing requirements, including identifying single books or multiple overlapping books, and the system identifies and records books with abnormal physical states; a second exception recognition module, which uses a barcode camera to verify the barcode printed and pasted by the back cover printing and pasting module during the posture adjustment process of the second posture adjustment module, and records books with verification errors; an exception rejection module, which rejects abnormal books detected by the first exception recognition module and the second exception recognition module and sends the system the reasons for rejection.

[0085] The book cataloging subsystem adopts a paperless cataloging system. Through industrial automation technology, it realizes the automatic handover, automatic alignment and automatic continuous page turning of single books, and uses artificial intelligence technology for image recognition; it realizes image scanning, correction, information recognition, etc. of single-page images in books. The automation process of the book cataloging subsystem includes storing the processed books in the designated location of the cache library; clamping the books to be cataloged, placing them in the designated location and fixing them; using a six-axis robot to continuously turn the pages; during the page turning process, using an industrial camera to continuously shoot the collected book pages; and processing and saving the collected book page images. In addition, through the integration and distribution of the above information by application software, the information of the books to be cataloged is distributed to the corresponding catalogers in the form of electronic documents, and the catalogers complete the online paperless cataloging.

[0086] The in-and-out warehouse turnover module is mainly used to connect to the book adaptive dynamic processing subsystem, and is used to cache the books being processed or after being processed in the book adaptive dynamic processing subsystem to the module in the book shelves.

[0087] This module will release the books that have been adjusted by the book adaptive dynamic processing subsystem to the designated location, waiting for the vertical library robot to pick them up, and then place them on the designated cargo position. The module takes into account the function of returning to the warehouse or continuing to circulate after the book processing is completed, so that there will be no conflict and waiting between the book flow in and out of the subsystem. At the same time, the in-and-out turnover handover module should have a certain temporary storage function, so that the book adaptive dynamic processing subsystem and the paperless cataloging subsystem can wait normally in place, maximizing the system efficiency of page turning and scanning.

[0088] The book turning machine module uses a 6-axis industrial robot to continuously turn pages and cooperates with an industrial camera for image sampling. The module accurately captures the front and back pages of the book through image processing. The module should at least include book position detection and adjustment, automatic fixing and loosening, automatic opening of the book cover or back cover, and automatic opening of the inner pages of the book page by page.

[0089] Automatically fix and release the book. After the book enters the continuous page turning mechanism and adjusts its position, it automatically fixes the book before starting the page turning scanning, so that the book will not move during the page turning process. And after the book completes the page turning scanning work, it automatically releases the book so that it can be smoothly transported out of the page turning mechanism.

[0090] The book page collection uses image shooting and recognition technology to continuously shoot the collected book pages. Image collection and recognition adopts the mode of "sampling-saving sharpening-judgment-re-sampling" until the collection and storage reaches the specified number of pages. The maximum number of continuous sampling and storage pages is not less than 20 pages.

[0091] The vertical library robot is used for dispatching between the in-and-out warehouse turnover handover module, the book turning machine module and the book shelf. The robot should be able to take or put books between the in-and-out warehouse turnover handover module, the book turning machine module and the book shelf. It can accurately respond to the dispatching of the in-warehouse turnover handover module and the book turning machine module, so that the dispatching of the in-warehouse turnover handover module and the book turning machine module can work more efficiently.

[0092] The vertical library robot must ensure that books of different sizes and materials can be smoothly transferred in and out of the circulation library and paperless cataloging subsystem. It is required that books do not get stuck or fall when entering and leaving the library. The vertical library robot should also consider the function of returning books to the library or continuing to circulate after processing, so that there will be no conflicts and waiting when books are transferred in and out of the subsystem.

[0093] The book sorting subsystem includes a call number processing module, which automatically queries the current book PID (Processing Identity) data, reversely queries the database cataloging data, automatically generates call numbers, and prints and pastes call numbers in real time; the sorting robot automatically receives books according to the sorting list, reads the book PID or the collection information of the RFID tag, and moves the books to the designated location.

[0094] The call number processing module will automatically query the current book PID data, reverse query the database catalog data, automatically generate the call number, and print and paste the call number in real time; the system can automatically specify the printing position according to the thickness of the book and the length of the call number to meet actual needs; the system automatically peels off and pastes the protective film onto the call number, and the call number and the protective film must be aligned with the center line of the book spine, and the center is consistent. The call number is printed in black and white or color to meet user needs, and the call number label is made of self-adhesive material, which is easy to peel and paste.

[0095] The sorting robot automatically receives books according to the sorting list given by the book collection institution, reads the book PID or the collection information of the RFID tag, and realizes the automatic classification of books. The sorting robot can use AGV carts, etc., and use QR code or RFID to navigate. The sorting robot is equipped with an alarm indicator light. The robot working status indicator light can indicate the current status of the robot: shutdown status, stop status, running status, fault status, etc.

[0096] The book collection and editing system and method of this application is based on the book collection and editing business link, and builds an intelligent book collection and editing operation system.
