[0046] Related explanation:
[0047] Open wagon: A type of railway freight car, which is characterized by being uncovered and having four side panels, two of which have openable side doors to facilitate unloading of cargo. This type of car is mainly used to transport bulk goods such as coal or ballast that are not afraid of wind and rain. Open wagons are mainly used to transport bulk goods such as coal, ore, mining and construction materials, wood, steel, etc., and can also be used to transport light mechanical equipment.
[0048] The core of the invention is to disclose a gondola cutting system to realize intelligent cutting and improve the repair efficiency of the gondola.
[0049] Another core of the present invention is to disclose a gondola cutting method, which adopts the gondola cutting system mentioned above.
[0050] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention discloses an open car cutting system, including a support 100, a cutting mechanism and a control system, wherein the cutting mechanism is in sliding cooperation with the support 100.
[0052] For the convenience of explanation, the side panels arranged along the length direction of the gondola 400 are defined as side walls, which include a first side wall and a second side wall; the side panels arranged along the width direction of the gondola 400 are defined as end walls, which include a first end wall and a second end wall. The cutting mechanism includes a first cutting mechanism 200 capable of cutting the side wall of the gondola 400 and a second cutting mechanism 300 capable of cutting the end wall of the gondola 400.
[0053] Specifically, the first cutting mechanism 200 includes a first scanning component 210 and a first cutting component 220, which are respectively connected to the control system for communication, and the first scanning component 210 can scan the side wall of the open car 400, collect the image of the side wall of the open car 400, and transmit the collected image of the side wall to the control system, and the control system processes the image of the side wall, identifies the area to be repaired of the side wall, and generates a first cutting path. The first cutting component 220 cuts the area to be repaired of the side wall according to the first cutting path.
[0054] The second cutting mechanism 300 includes a second scanning component 310 and a second cutting component 320, and the second scanning component 310 and the second cutting component 320 are respectively connected to the control system for communication. The second scanning component 310 can scan the end wall of the open car 400, collect the image of the end wall of the open car 400, and upload the collected image to the control system. The control system identifies the area to be repaired of the end wall according to the image of the end wall, and generates a second cutting path. The second cutting component 320 cuts the area to be repaired of the end wall according to the second scanning and cutting path.
[0055] The open car cutting system disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention, when in use, pushes the open car 400 between the supports 100, and collects images and scans the side wall and the end wall of the open car 400 through the first scanning assembly 210 and the second scanning assembly 310, respectively. The control system identifies the areas to be repaired of the side wall and the end wall according to the images of the side wall and the end wall, and generates respective cutting paths. The first cutting assembly 220 and the second cutting assembly 320 perform cutting operations according to the corresponding cutting paths, which can realize intelligent cutting of the side wall and the end wall of the open car 400, can replace manual cutting operations, save labor, and improve the repair efficiency of the open car 400. At the same time, the side wall and the end wall of the open car 400 can be cut at the same time, which can further improve the cutting efficiency.
[0056] In some specific embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the first cutting mechanism 200 includes at least two, and each first cutting mechanism 200 performs cutting operations on the first side wall of the gondola 400 and the second side wall of the gondola 400 respectively;
[0057] The second cutting mechanisms 300 include at least two, and each second cutting mechanism 300 performs cutting operations on the first end wall of the gondola 400 and the second end wall of the gondola 400. The arrangement of multiple first cutting mechanisms 200 and second cutting mechanisms 300 can further improve the cutting efficiency.
[0058] In some specific embodiments, Figure 2As shown in FIG. 4 , the first cutting mechanism 200 includes four first cutting mechanisms 200, wherein two first cutting mechanisms 200 jointly perform a cutting operation on the first side wall of the open car 400, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, the other two first cutting mechanisms 200 jointly perform cutting operations on the second side wall of the open car 400. It should be noted that the two first cutting mechanisms 200 that perform cutting operations on the first side wall of the open car 400 can be arranged at both ends of the side wall, and move toward each other from the ends to the middle of the first side wall. In this way, in order to reduce the collision between the two first cutting mechanisms 200 when moving toward each other, a partition is provided in the middle of the first side wall, or the two first cutting mechanisms 200 can be provided with their own moving tracks. The two first cutting mechanisms 200 can also be arranged in the middle of the first side wall, and move from the middle of the first side wall to both ends of the first side wall.
[0059] The second cutting mechanism 300 includes two, one of which performs a cutting operation on the first end wall of the open car 400. Figure 3 As shown, another second cutting mechanism 300 performs cutting operation on the second end wall of the gondola 400. In this embodiment, by setting six cutting mechanisms to cooperate in cutting the side walls and end walls of the gondola 400, the cutting efficiency can be further improved.
[0060] like Figure 8 As shown, in some specific embodiments, the first cutting assembly 220 includes a first robot 221, a first anti-collision structure 222 and a first cutting gun 223. Among them, the first cutting mechanism 200 includes a first fixed plate 230 that is slidably matched with the support 100, and the first robot 221 is connected to the first fixed plate 230, preferably in a detachable connection mode, specifically by bolt connection, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly. The first anti-collision structure 222 is arranged on the mechanical arm of the first robot 221, preferably in a detachable connection mode, and the first cutting gun 223 is connected to the first anti-collision structure 222, preferably in a detachable connection mode. The first robot 221 and the first anti-collision structure 222 are both connected to the control system in communication. In other specific embodiments, the first cutting assembly 220 also includes a plasma control box 224, specifically, the plasma control box 224 is arranged on the first fixed plate 230, the first cutting gun 223 is electrically connected to the plasma control box 224, and the plasma control box 224 is used to control the current and other parameters of the first cutting gun 223.
[0061] When the first cutting assembly 220 performs a cutting operation, if the first cutting gun 223 collides with the side wall of the gondola 400, the first cutting gun 223 drives the first anti-collision structure 222 to deviate. When the offset distance of the first anti-collision structure 222 exceeds the preset distance, the first anti-collision structure 222 generates an interrupt signal and transmits it to the control system, and the control system controls the first robot 221 to stop the cutting action. The setting of the first anti-collision structure 222 can reduce the damage to the gondola 400 caused by the collision between the first cutting gun 223 and the gondola 400. The control system includes an emergency stop button. When the first cutting gun 223 collides with the side wall of the gondola 400, the first robot 221 can also stop the cutting action through the emergency stop button.
[0062] The second cutting assembly 320 has the same structure as the first cutting assembly 220. Figure 5 As shown, the second cutting assembly 320 includes a second robot 321, a second anti-collision structure 322 and a second cutting gun 323. The specific connection method and working principle are the same as those of the first cutting assembly 220, which will not be repeated here.
[0063] The second cutting mechanism 300 includes a second fixing plate 330 and a reinforcing column 324 that are slidably matched with the support 100. The second robot 221 is connected to the reinforcing column 324, preferably in a detachable connection mode. The reinforcing column 324 is connected to the second fixing plate 330, preferably in a detachable connection mode. The second fixing plate 330 is slidably matched with the support 100, specifically, it can be slidably matched through a slider. The second scanning component 310 is connected to the reinforcing column 324 through the second visual bracket 340. The setting of the reinforcing column 324 can enhance the stability of the structure.
[0064] like Figure 8 As shown, in some specific embodiments, the first scanning assembly 210 includes a plurality of first cameras 211, each of which is connected to the first fixing plate 230 via a first visual bracket 240. Specifically, each of the first cameras 211 is connected to the first visual bracket 240 in a detachable manner, which may be a bolted connection or a snap-on connection, and the first visual bracket 240 is detachably connected to the first fixing plate 230. In order to reduce the problem of insufficient field of view when taking pictures, all the first cameras 211 are dispersedly arranged. Preferably, all the first cameras 211 are arranged up and down, left and right along the side wall of the open car 400. Here, up and down refers to the height direction along the side wall of the open car 400, and left and right refers to the length direction along the side wall of the open car 400. The up and down arrangement can expand the field of view, and the left and right arrangement can prevent individual parts on the side wall of the open car 400 from blocking the field of view. Figure 8The first cameras 211 shown in the figure include four, and the four first cameras 211 are arranged in a rectangular manner, dispersedly arranged at the four corners of the rectangle, and the four first cameras 211 are set around the first robot 221. Multiple first cameras 211 synchronously scan the side wall of the open car 400, and the combination of jigsaw puzzles can more accurately capture the image of the side wall of the open car 400, ensuring that the captured image is more accurate. The second scanning component 310 has the same structural composition and arrangement as the first scanning component 210, which will not be repeated here.
[0065] In some specific embodiments, a driving mechanism is also included, and the driving mechanism includes a first driving assembly and a second driving assembly. The first driving assembly is connected to the first cutting mechanism 200 by transmission, and drives the first cutting mechanism 200 to slide along the support 100. The second driving assembly is connected to the second cutting mechanism 300 by transmission, and drives the second cutting mechanism 300 to slide along the support 100. The first driving assembly and the second driving assembly are both connected to the control system by communication. In some specific embodiments, the first driving assembly can use a motor and a screw mechanism, the motor is connected to the screw of the screw mechanism, and the cutting mechanism is threaded with the nut of the screw mechanism. Alternatively, the first driving assembly can use a motor and a driving cylinder to cooperate, and the cutting mechanism is connected to the piston rod of the driving cylinder, or a gear rack can be used, as long as the cutting mechanism can be driven to slide along the support 100 and perform linear displacement. The structure and working principle of the second driving assembly are the same as those of the first driving assembly, and will not be repeated.
[0066] In some specific embodiments, two first cutting mechanisms 200 that perform cutting operations on the first side wall are respectively arranged at both ends of the first side wall, and the first driving component selects a motor and a screw mechanism. The two ends of the screw in the screw mechanism are respectively provided with a left-handed thread portion and a right-handed thread portion, one of the cutting mechanisms 200 is threadedly matched with the left-handed thread portion, and the other cutting mechanism 200 is threadedly matched with the right-handed thread portion. The first cutting mechanism 200 is slidably matched with the support 100 through a slider, and the motor is started to drive the screw to rotate, and the two first cutting mechanisms 200 move toward each other.
[0067] In some specific embodiments, a guide rail 110 is provided on the support 100, and the first cutting mechanism 200 and the second cutting mechanism 300 are both slidably matched with the guide rail 110 through a slider. The guide rail 110 includes at least four rails extending along the length direction of the first side wall, the second side wall, the first end wall, and the second end wall of the open car 400. Alternatively, the guide rails 110 arranged along the length direction of the first side wall and the second side wall of the open car may include multiple rails, and one first cutting mechanism 200 may be provided on the multiple guide rails 110, or one guide rail 110 corresponds to one first cutting mechanism 200.
[0068] In order to prevent the cutting mechanism from detaching from the guide rail 110 when sliding along the guide rail 110, limit members are provided at both ends of the guide rail 110. Specifically, the cutting mechanism can be limited by providing an arc plate at the end of the guide rail 110; or a limit sensor is provided at the end of the guide rail 110, and the limit sensor is communicated with the control system. When the cutting mechanism moves to the end of the guide rail 110, the limit sensor is triggered to stop the cutting mechanism from moving.
[0069] In order to protect the cutting mechanism and facilitate the inspection and maintenance of the cutting mechanism, in some specific embodiments, a guardrail 120 and a ladder 130 are provided on the support 100 .
[0070] In some specific embodiments, the support 100 includes a first support 101 and a second support 102 . Specifically, the first support 101 is arranged along the length direction of the side wall of the gondola 400 , and the second support 102 is arranged along the length direction of the end wall of the gondola 400 .
[0071] like Figure 4 and Figure 6-Figure 7 As shown, the first support 101 and the second support 102 both include a column 103 and a crossbeam 104. The columns 103 include a plurality of columns, and all are fixed to the ground steel plate by anchor bolts 105. The crossbeam 104 is arranged on the columns 103. The first support 101 includes a first crossbeam 1011 extending along the length direction of the side wall of the gondola 400, and the first cutting mechanism 200 is slidably matched with the first crossbeam 1011; the second support 102 includes a second crossbeam 1021 extending along the length direction of the end wall of the gondola 400, and the second cutting mechanism 300 is slidably matched with the second crossbeam 1021.
[0072] In addition, the present invention also discloses a method for cutting an open car, comprising the following steps:
[0073] S1, the cutting mechanism slides along the support 100 to reach a preset position;
[0074] The control system includes a main start and stop key for the cutting mechanism and start and stop keys for controlling the movement and start and stop of each cutting mechanism respectively. The main start and stop key for the cutting mechanism can control the start and stop of each cutting mechanism as a whole, and the start and stop keys for controlling the movement and start and stop of each cutting mechanism can control the start and stop of each cutting mechanism respectively.
[0075] The first cutting mechanism 200 and the second cutting mechanism 300 can be controlled to move along the support 100 respectively and reach their respective preset positions in sequence through the cutting mechanism start / stop key or the start / stop keys of the movement start / stop of each cutting mechanism. The preset positions here refer to different areas of the side wall and the end wall of the open car 400, preferably arranged along the length direction of the side wall and the length direction of the end wall of the open car 400. The control system also includes a control unit capable of controlling the movement speed of the cutting mechanism.
[0076] S2, collecting an image of the open car 400 and generating a cutting path;
[0077] At any preset position, the first scanning component 210 takes a picture and scans the side wall of the open car 400, specifically adopting a counterclockwise scanning method from left to right, and the side wall scanning time is about 300 seconds, and then the collected image is transmitted to the control system, the control system identifies the area to be repaired, and generates a first cutting path; the second scanning component 310 takes a picture and scans the end wall of the open car 400, specifically adopting a counterclockwise scanning method from left to right, and the side wall scanning time is about 200 seconds, and then the collected image is transmitted to the control system, the control system identifies the area to be repaired, and generates a second cutting path.
[0078] Taking the first cutting mechanism 200 as an example, the preset positions include a first preset position, a second preset position and a third preset position, and the first preset position, the second preset position and the third preset position are arranged along the length direction of the open car 400. The driving mechanism drives the first scanning component 210 to reach the first preset position, and the first scanning component 210 takes a photo and scans, and transmits the collected image to the control system. The control system processes the image, identifies the area to be repaired, and generates a first cutting path. Of course, there may be no area to be repaired at the first preset position. If there is no area to be repaired, the driving mechanism drives the first scanning component 210 to directly reach the second preset position. After that, the driving mechanism drives the first scanning component 210 to reach the second preset position and the third preset position in sequence. After the first scanning component 210 completes scanning, the respective cutting paths are generated accordingly.
[0079] S3, performing cutting operation on the open car 400;
[0080] At any preset position, the first cutting assembly 220 cuts the area to be repaired of the side wall of the gondola 400 according to the first cutting path; the second cutting assembly 320 cuts the end wall of the gondola 400 according to the second cutting path.
[0081] For example, when in the first preset position, the first cutting component 220 cuts the area to be repaired according to the first cutting path. After cutting is completed, it moves to the second preset position and the third preset position in sequence for cutting. After cutting is completed at all preset positions, the first cutting mechanism 200 returns to the starting position, that is, the first preset position.
[0082] For the second cutting mechanism 300, the cutting method is the same as that of the first cutting mechanism 200, and will not be described in detail here.
[0083] The specific cutting method is described by taking the first cutting mechanism 200 as an example: the start / stop button in the control system is activated, the first cutting mechanism 200 slides along the support 100 and reaches the first preset position, the first scanning component 210 scans the first preset position, transmits it to the control system, generates the cutting path of the first preset position, and the first cutting component 220 performs the cutting operation according to the first cutting path. After the cutting is completed, the first cutting mechanism 200 continues to move and reaches the second preset position, the first scanning component 210 scans the second preset position, transmits it to the control system, generates the cutting path of the second preset position, and the first cutting component 220 performs the cutting operation according to the cutting path of the second preset position. After the cutting is completed, the first cutting mechanism 200 continues to move and reaches the third preset position, the first scanning component 210 scans the third preset position, transmits it to the control system, generates the cutting path of the third preset position, and the first cutting component 220 performs the cutting operation according to the cutting path of the first preset position. After the cutting is completed, the first cutting mechanism 200 moves to the first preset position.
[0084] Of course, the cutting method of the first cutting mechanism 200 can also be as follows: start the start / stop button in the control system, the first cutting mechanism 200 slides along the support 100, reaches the first preset position, the first scanning component 210 scans the first preset position, transmits it to the control system, and generates a cutting path for the first preset position. Then the first cutting mechanism 200 continues to move and reaches the second preset position, the first scanning component 210 scans the second preset position, transmits it to the control system, and generates a cutting path for the second preset position. Then the first cutting mechanism 200 continues to move and reaches the third preset position, the first scanning component 210 scans the third preset position, transmits it to the control system, and generates a cutting path for the third preset position. After the cutting paths of all preset positions are generated, the first cutting mechanism 200 moves to the first preset position.
[0085] At the first preset position, the first cutting component 220 performs a cutting operation according to the cutting path of the first preset position. After the cutting is completed, the first cutting mechanism 200 moves to the second preset position. The first cutting component 220 performs a cutting operation according to the cutting path of the second preset position. After the cutting is completed, the first cutting mechanism 200 moves to the third preset position. The first cutting component 220 performs a cutting operation according to the cutting path of the third preset position. After the cutting of all preset positions is completed, the first cutting mechanism 200 moves to the first preset position.
[0086] The cutting method of the second cutting mechanism 300 is the same as that of the first cutting mechanism 200, and will not be described in detail here.
[0087] In the step of performing the cutting operation on the open car 400, when the first cutting gun 223 in the first cutting assembly 220 collides with the open car 400, the first cutting gun 223 will be offset, and the first anti-collision structure 222 will be offset. The first anti-collision structure 222 includes a displacement sensor, and the displacement sensor detects the offset distance. If the offset distance is greater than the preset distance, an interrupt signal is transmitted to the control system, and the control system controls the first robot 221 in the first cutting assembly 220 to stop the action. The setting of the first anti-collision structure 222 can reduce the degree of damage to the open car 400, and at the same time reduce the damage to the first cutting gun 223, which can extend the service life of the first cutting gun 223. For the second cutting mechanism 300, the specific structural composition and working principle of the second anti-collision structure 322 are the same as those of the first anti-collision structure 222, and will not be repeated.
