[0002] During tobacco processing, cut tobacco warehouses and tobacco leaf warehouses are three-dimensional, elevated storage areas for cut tobacco and tobacco leaves. These warehouses consist of multiple rows of shelves for tobacco boxes and stackers. They are characterized by high space utilization and automated access to boxes and packs. However, due to their high degree of automation, the height of the shelves, and the high density of tobacco boxes and packs, these warehouses present significant safety risks. Therefore, during daily production, access to these warehouses is prohibited except for designated maintenance personnel. This makes dust cleaning of the shelves and their storage areas difficult, making them a high-risk breeding ground for tobacco insects.

[0057] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0058] In this application, relational terms such as first and second are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. The terms "include", "comprises" or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or apparatus comprising a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article or apparatus. In the absence of further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising a ..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or apparatus comprising the element.

[0059] like Figure 1 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the architecture of an insect monitoring system for an elevated storage area provided in an embodiment of the present application, including the modules shown below.

[0060] Stacker 100 , tobacco insect trap 200 and control module 300 .

[0061] There are multiple stackers 100, each stacker 100 corresponds to a track, and shelves are deployed on both sides of the track. The stacker 100 can move horizontally along the track. The stacker 100 includes a maintenance platform, which can be moved vertically through a lifting arm.

[0062] It should be noted that the track is set in the elevated storage area, which can be understood as the tobacco storage area. The tobacco storage area includes multiple rows of shelves and multiple lanes. A track is set on each lane, and a stacker 100 runs on each track.

[0063] In some examples, a three-dimensional view of the tobacco library can be seen in Figure 2 As shown, the main view of the tobacco warehouse can be seen in Figure 3 As shown, the top view of the tobacco warehouse can be seen in Figure 4 shown.

[0064] In some examples, the architecture of the stacker 100 can be seen in Figure 5 In actual production applications, the maintenance platform on the stacker 100 can be used for people to stand on, so that workers can perform maintenance work on the maintenance platform.

[0065] In a possible embodiment, the stacker 100 includes wheels, a ladder, a lifting arm and a maintenance platform, wherein the wheels are used to enable the stacker 100 to move on the track, the ladder is used to assist workers to board the maintenance platform, and the lifting arm is used to achieve vertical movement (i.e., lifting movement) of the maintenance platform.

[0066] In a possible embodiment, the maximum height to which the lifting arm can rise is generally the height of the shelf.

[0067] In some examples, the height of the shelf may range from 10 to 20 meters, and the length of the shelf may range from 50 to 80 meters.

[0068] It is understandable that since shelves are deployed on both sides of the track, the length of the track usually needs to be aligned with the length of the shelves on both sides.

[0069] There are multiple tobacco insect traps 200, which are respectively installed on the maintenance platforms of multiple stackers 100, so that the tobacco insect traps 200 can move horizontally with the stackers and move vertically with the maintenance platforms.

[0070] It can be understood that the tobacco insect traps 200 can be used to trap tobacco insects, and the number of tobacco insect traps 200 can be greater than or equal to the number of stackers 100.

[0071] In a possible implementation manner, at least one smoke insect trap 200 may be installed on the maintenance platform of each stacker 100 .

[0072] The control module 300 is electrically connected to multiple stackers 100 respectively, and is used to determine the multiple trapping points corresponding to each tobacco insect trap 200 based on the horizontal movement space of each stacker 100 and the vertical movement space of the maintenance platform, and determine the activation time matched by each trapping point based on a preset monitoring cycle. When the daily production task is completed, the target trapping point matched by each tobacco insect trap 200 on that day is identified, and by controlling the horizontal movement of the stacker 100 and the vertical movement of the maintenance platform, each tobacco insect trap 200 is moved to its respective matched target trapping point.

[0073] It should be emphasized that the control module 300 is electrically connected to multiple stackers 100 respectively. It can be understood that the control module 300 can directly control the operation of each stacker 100, that is, control the horizontal movement of each stacker 100 on the track (generally by controlling the drive motor to drive the wheels to achieve horizontal movement of the stacker 100), and control the vertical movement of the maintenance platform of each stacker 100 (generally by controlling the movement of the lifting arm to achieve vertical movement of the maintenance platform).

[0074] It should be noted that the control module 300 controls the stacker 100 to move to a specified position on the track and controls the maintenance platform to move to a specified height, which are both conventional control means. The implementation principles of the relevant control logic will not be repeated here.

[0075] Optionally, for the horizontal movement space of each stacker 100, the control module 300 is specifically used to: determine the horizontal movement space of each stacker 100 based on the length of the track corresponding to each stacker 100, wherein the horizontal movement space is the horizontal distance starting from one end of the track to the other end of the track.

[0076] In some examples, assuming that the length of the track is 72 meters, the horizontal movement space of the stacker crane can be considered to start from one end of the track and end at the other end of the track, with a total horizontal distance of 72 meters.

[0077] Optionally, for the vertical movement space of the maintenance platform of each stacker 100, the control module 300 is specifically used to: determine the vertical movement space of the maintenance platform of each stacker 100 based on the height of the shelf corresponding to each stacker 100, wherein the vertical movement space is the vertical distance starting from the ground and ending at the height of the shelf.

[0078] In some examples, assuming the height of the shelf is 15 meters, the vertical movement space of the maintenance platform can be considered as the vertical distance starting from the ground and ending at 15 meters.

[0079] Optionally, the control module 300 is specifically used to: for each tobacco insect trap 200, determine a plurality of latitude points based on the horizontal movement space of the stacker 100 corresponding to the tobacco insect trap 200; determine a plurality of longitude points based on the vertical movement space of the maintenance platform of the stacker 100 corresponding to the tobacco insect trap 200; and generate a plurality of trapping points corresponding to the tobacco insect trap 200 based on a combination of a plurality of latitude points and a plurality of longitude points.

[0080] In some examples, assuming that the horizontal movement space of the stacker 100 is a horizontal distance of 77 meters from one end to the other end of the track, a latitude point can be set every 7 meters on the horizontal distance, resulting in a total of 10 latitude points.

[0081] In some examples, assuming that the vertical movement space of the maintenance platform is a vertical distance from the ground to 15 meters, a meridian point can be set every 5 meters on the horizontal distance, and a total of 3 meridian points can be obtained.

[0082] In some examples, a combination of 10 latitude points and 3 longitude points results in a total of 30 trapping points, each of which is based on a latitude point and a longitude point as a position coordinate, and the position coordinates of each trapping point are different.

[0083] In a possible implementation, taking a stacker on any track as an example, the horizontal moving space is divided into 9 equal parts along the extension direction of the track to determine 10 latitude points. Similarly, the vertical moving space is divided into 3 equal parts along the vertical direction to determine 3 longitude points. The preset monitoring period is 30 days. On the 1st to 3rd day, the stacker is controlled to move to the 1st latitude point. The maintenance platform is controlled to move to the 1st longitude point on the 1st day so that the tobacco insect trap moves to the 1st trapping point. The maintenance platform is controlled to move to the 2nd longitude point on the 2nd day so that the tobacco insect trap moves to the 2nd trapping point. The maintenance platform is controlled to move to the 3rd longitude point on the 3rd day so that the tobacco insect trap moves to the 3rd trapping point. On the 4th to 6th day, the stacker is controlled to move to the 2nd latitude point, and the maintenance platform is controlled to move to the 1st meridian point on the 4th day, so that the tobacco insect trap is moved to the 4th trapping point. On the 5th day, the maintenance platform is controlled to move to the 2nd meridian point, so that the tobacco insect trap is moved to the 5th trapping point. On the 6th day, the maintenance platform is controlled to move to the 3rd meridian point, so that the tobacco insect trap is moved to the 6th trapping point, and so on until the 30th day.

[0084] In some examples, it is assumed that there are 4 tracks, the number of stackers is 4, and each tobacco insect trap corresponds to 30 trapping points. Therefore, the distribution of the trapping points corresponding to each tobacco insect trap can be found in Figure 6 shown.

[0085] It can be understood that no matter how many lanes (i.e., tracks) there are in the elevated storage area, the tobacco insect trap detection on each track is monitored in real time based on the corresponding multiple trapping points, thereby achieving full coverage of insect detection inside the elevated storage area.

[0086] It should be noted that for each tobacco insect trap 200, the multiple trapping points corresponding to each tobacco insect trap 200 are different. Figure 5 and Figure 6 It can be seen that with the maintenance platform where people stand as the base point, it can move horizontally along the track with the stacker 100, and can also move vertically with the maintenance platform. The operation path of the maintenance platform can cover the entire plane between the two rows of shelves, that is, the entire aisle. By using the maintenance platform on the stacker 100 in each aisle, the entire elevated warehouse area can be covered.

[0087] In some examples, after each monitoring cycle, the control module 300 can also control each stacker 100 to move to the end of the shelf to facilitate maintenance personnel to inspect the tobacco insect trap 200 on the inspection platform. The inspection process is relatively safe and quick. After each monitoring cycle, multiple tobacco insect traps 200 can be replaced, making the entire monitoring process, inspection and maintenance safe, convenient and efficient.

[0088] The insect monitoring system in the elevated storage area shown above has the following beneficial effects: First, it solves the problem that the insect monitoring points in the elevated storage area can only be arranged outside the storage area and cannot monitor the internal situation of the storage area, thereby clearing the blind spots of insect monitoring; Second, by utilizing the characteristics of the tobacco warehouse stacker, it can flexibly realize insect monitoring in various areas inside the storage area and in the middle and high altitude areas, and realize efficient insect monitoring functions with all-weather, three-dimensional and full-area coverage; Third, the inspection and maintenance of tobacco insect traps are relatively safe and convenient, laying a solid foundation for insect monitoring and control inside the elevated storage area.

[0089] like Figure 7 As shown, it is a flow chart of an insect monitoring method in an elevated storage area provided in an embodiment of the present application, which can be applied to a control module (such as a computer, an industrial computer, etc.) and includes the steps shown below.

[0090] S701: Determine a plurality of trapping points corresponding to each tobacco insect trap according to the horizontal moving space of each stacker and the vertical moving space of the maintenance platform.

[0091] The stacker crane is mounted on tracks and can move horizontally along them. The elevated warehouse area consists of multiple lanes, each with a track and racks on both sides. The stacker crane also includes an inspection platform that can be moved vertically via a lifting arm.

[0092] It should be noted that a smoke insect trap is installed on the maintenance platform of each stacker.

[0093] Optionally, the process of determining the multiple trapping points corresponding to each tobacco insect trap according to the horizontal moving space of each stacker and the vertical moving space of the maintenance platform can be found in Figure 8 、 Figure 9 Steps shown and explanations of the steps.

[0094] S702: Determine the activation time matched by each trapping point according to a preset monitoring period.

[0095] Among them, the preset monitoring period can be set by technical personnel according to actual conditions.

[0096] In some examples, for any tobacco insect trap, the preset monitoring period is 30 days and the number of trapping points is 30. The trapping points where the tobacco insect trap is parked every day are determined to obtain the activation time matching each trapping point. The activation time can be understood as the time when the tobacco insect trap is parked at the trapping point.

[0097] S703: After the daily production task is completed, identify the target trapping point that each tobacco insect trap matches on that day.

[0098] S704: By controlling the horizontal movement of the stacker and the vertical movement of the maintenance platform, each tobacco insect trap is moved to its corresponding target trapping point.

[0099] Among them, the daily production task is that the stacker needs to perform sorting work in the elevated warehouse area, which will not be repeated here.

[0100] In some examples, the tobacco storage area of ​​a tobacco-making workshop consists of eight rows of shelves and four stackers. The shelves are 13.42 meters high and 55.2 meters long, with 1024 shelves accommodating 2048 tobacco boxes. A stacker is located between every two rows of shelves. A stacker is a device capable of both horizontal and vertical movement. Its primary function is to place tobacco boxes on and off the shelves, and then transport them to downstream workstations. To ensure the stacker's range of motion covers the entire tobacco storage area, a tobacco insect trap is mounted on the stacker's maintenance platform. An electronic control program sets the stacker's position at different horizontal and vertical points within the aisle after a daily production pause. For example, a stacker in a particular aisle is divided horizontally into nine equal parts, defining 10 locations (called latitude points). Similarly, three locations (called warp points) are defined vertically along the stacker. A monitoring cycle is set at 30 days. On the 1st to 3rd day, the stacker will be parked at the 1st latitude point, and the stacker's maintenance platform (tobacco insect trap) will be parked at the 1st, 2nd and 3rd longitude points respectively. Similarly, on the 4th to 6th day, the stacker will be parked at the 2nd point, and the stacker's maintenance platform (i.e., tobacco insect trap) will be parked at the 4th, 5th and 6th longitude points respectively, and so on until the 30th day. Regardless of the number of lanes in the elevated storage area, the tobacco insect trap detection in each lane is set in this way, so as to achieve full coverage of insect detection inside the elevated storage area, laying a good foundation for insect control.

[0101] The process shown in S701-S704 above utilizes the stacker and maintenance platform on each track in the elevated storage area to deploy multiple trapping points for tobacco insect traps. After the daily production task is completed, by controlling the horizontal movement of the stacker and the vertical movement of the maintenance platform, each tobacco insect trap is moved to its respective matching target trapping point. This can flexibly realize insect monitoring in various areas within the storage area and in medium and high altitude areas, and achieve efficient insect monitoring functions with all-weather, three-dimensional, and full-area coverage, thereby effectively eliminating the monitoring blind spots of insect conditions in high and low altitude areas within the elevated storage area.

[0102] like Figure 8 As shown, it is a flow chart of another method for monitoring insect infestation in elevated storage areas provided in an embodiment of the present application, which includes the following steps.

[0103] S801: Determine the horizontal movement space of each stacker crane based on the length of the track corresponding to each stacker crane.

[0104] The horizontal moving space is the horizontal distance starting from one end of the track and ending at the other end of the track.

[0105] S802: Determine the vertical movement space of the maintenance platform of each stacker based on the height of the shelf corresponding to each stacker.

[0106] The vertical moving space is the vertical distance starting from the ground and ending at the height of the shelf.

[0107] S803: Determine a plurality of trapping points corresponding to each tobacco insect trap according to the horizontal moving space of each stacker and the vertical moving space of the maintenance platform.

[0108] Among them, a smoke insect trap is installed on the maintenance platform of each stacker.

[0109] The process shown in the above S801-S803 can determine the horizontal movement space of the stacker based on the length of the track corresponding to the stacker, and determine the vertical movement space of the stacker's maintenance platform based on the height of the shelf corresponding to the stacker, so that the multiple trapping points corresponding to the tobacco insect trap can cover the entire elevated warehouse area, achieve full coverage of insect detection inside the elevated warehouse area, and lay a good foundation for insect control.

[0110] like Figure 9 As shown, it is a flow chart of another method for monitoring insect infestation in elevated storage areas provided in an embodiment of the present application, which includes the following steps.

[0111] S901: For each tobacco insect trap, determine a plurality of latitude points based on the horizontal movement space of the stacker corresponding to the tobacco insect trap.

[0112] The horizontal moving space of the stacker can be equally divided to determine multiple latitude points.

[0113] In some examples, the horizontal movement space of the stacker is 77 meters, and 77 meters can be equally divided into 7 meters to obtain 10 latitude points.

[0114] S902: Determine a plurality of meridian points based on the vertical movement space of the maintenance platform of the stacker corresponding to the tobacco insect trap.

[0115] Among them, the vertical movement space of the maintenance platform can be equally divided to determine multiple meridian points.

[0116] In some examples, the vertical movement space of the maintenance platform is 15 meters, and the 15 meters can be equally divided into 5 meters to obtain three meridian points.

[0117] S903: Based on the combination of the plurality of latitude points and the plurality of longitude points, a plurality of trapping points corresponding to the tobacco insect trap are generated.

[0118] Among them, a latitude point and a longitude point are combined into a trapping point.

[0119] For some examples, see Figure 6As shown, the number of latitude points is 10 and the number of longitude points is 3, so a total of 30 trapping points are obtained.

[0120] The process shown in S901-S903 above, based on the horizontal movement space of the stacker and the vertical movement space of the maintenance platform, can determine multiple trapping points corresponding to the tobacco insect traps, solving the problem that insect monitoring points in the elevated storage area can only be deployed outside the storage area and cannot monitor the situation inside the storage area, thereby clearing the blind spots of insect monitoring.

[0121] like Figure 10 The figure shows a schematic diagram of the architecture of an insect monitoring device for an elevated storage area provided in an embodiment of the present application, which includes the units shown below.

[0122] The point planning unit 1001 is used to determine a plurality of trapping points corresponding to each tobacco insect trap according to the horizontal moving space of each stacker and the vertical moving space of the maintenance platform.

[0123] The time planning unit 1002 is used to determine the activation time matched to each trapping point according to a preset monitoring period.

[0124] The point identification unit 1003 is used to identify the target trapping point matched by each tobacco insect trap on that day after the daily production task is completed.
