Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of coal flow management, and in particular to an intelligent coal flow management system based on visual AI autonomous decision-making. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of my country's industry, underground coal energy mining has become an important research direction. Coal flow refers to the flow of coal after it is crushed and transported through conveyor belts. The smoothness of coal flow transportation is directly related to the production efficiency and supply stability of coal. Efficient coal flow management can ensure that coal is delivered to the demand side in a timely and accurate manner, providing strong guarantees for industrial production and energy supply. At the same time, with the continuous advancement of technology, modern coal flow monitoring and control systems are also constantly developing to improve the safety and reliability of coal flow.
[0003] There are the following problems in the process of coal transportation through conveyor belts:
[0004] 1. The conveyor belt for transporting coal flow is driven by a motor. However, the amount of coal piled on the conveyor belt is not constant. With the change of the progress of coal mining and crushing in the mine, the amount of coal on the conveyor belt is sometimes more, sometimes less, and sometimes even no coal is transported. A large amount of coal on the conveyor belt means that the efficiency of coal mining and crushing is high at this time. Therefore, it is necessary to speed up the transportation and transmission of coal to prevent the blockage of coal transportation after mining. A small amount of coal on the conveyor belt means that the efficiency of coal mining and crushing is low at this time. If the conveyor belt still maintains a high-speed transportation state, it will not only waste electricity but also waste the service life of the conveyor belt and the rotating roller due to friction.
[0005] 2. During the transportation of coal flow, the coal moves with the conveyor belt and is shaken, and the accumulated coal will roll down. Therefore, some coal will approach the edge of the conveyor belt or even roll off the conveyor belt. The rolled coal is not only not transported effectively, but also has the risk of injuring workers or mining equipment. In order to facilitate the intelligent management of the transportation speed of the coal flow conveyor belt and to prevent the coal from rolling off the conveyor belt, we propose an intelligent coal flow management system based on visual AI autonomous decision-making.

[0059] In this solution, the reference image in the visual inspection module is further analyzed by the offset alarm module to estimate the distance between the coal and the edge of the conveyor belt. When the distance is too small, the alarm is turned on to remind the management personnel to intervene and clean up the coal at the edge, which is helpful to prevent the coal from falling from the conveyor belt during transportation and injuring workers or mining equipment.
[0060] It is worth mentioning that the weight values in this scheme can be obtained through the hierarchical analysis method, and the values of the preset thresholds in this scheme can be obtained through the weight analysis method, which will not be elaborated here.
[0061] In the visual monitoring module, the visual coal flow coefficient is obtained by visually analyzing multiple reference images, specifically:
[0062] Step 1: Classify all reference images according to the top-view angle and the side-view angle, then grayscale all reference images, obtain the brightness information of each reference image after grayscale processing, set the brightness preset threshold range, capture the brightness area within the brightness preset threshold range in each top-view reference image and mark it as the coal top-view area, and capture the brightness area within the brightness preset threshold range in each side-view reference image and mark it as the coal side-view area;
[0063] Step 2: Perform repeated area comparison and deletion on all coal top-view areas to obtain the final coal top-view area, obtain the area of each final coal top-view area respectively, perform repeated area comparison and deletion on all coal side-view areas to obtain the final coal side-view area respectively, obtain the height of each final coal side-view area respectively, arrange the heights of all final coal side-view areas in ascending order and select the maximum value to mark as the final coal side-view area height;
[0064] Step 3: setting a preset threshold value for the area ratio, and obtaining a visual coal flow coefficient through the preset threshold value for the area ratio, the area of all final coal overlooking areas, and the height of the final coal side-viewing area;
[0065] The calculation method of the visual coal flow coefficient is as follows:

[0067] Among them, Sx represents the visual coal flow coefficient, Mj represents the preset threshold of the area ratio, Fs represents the area of the final coal overlooking area, Es represents the height of the final coal side viewing area, and n represents the number of areas of the final coal overlooking area, n = 1, 2, 3,...
[0068] In this embodiment, the captured image is processed in grayscale, the coal in the image is identified by brightness, the coal area is identified by a bird's-eye view, and the coal height is identified by a side view to calculate the volume of the coal. This makes it easier to predict the amount of coal on the conveyor belt through visual monitoring, and then to adjust the speed of the drive motor according to the prediction results, thereby adjusting the coal transportation efficiency according to the actual amount of coal transported.
[0069] The running speed of the conveyor belt is obtained in the data correction module, specifically:
[0070] Step 1: Obtain two consecutive reference images taken in the visual monitoring module, obtain the shooting interval, and identify and capture multiple common reference objects in the two reference images by brightness, contrast, area and shape;
[0071] Step 2: Overlap the two reference images, measure the distance between each group of common reference objects to obtain multiple distance values, arrange the multiple distance values in ascending order and delete the minimum and maximum values, sum and average the remaining multiple distance values to obtain the reference distance, set the distance ratio preset threshold, and obtain the running speed of the conveyor belt through the reference distance, the distance ratio preset threshold and the shooting time interval;

[0079] In this embodiment, the running speed of the conveyor belt and the instantaneous power of the drive motor are combined to obtain the load value of the conveyor belt, so as to facilitate the prediction of the actual amount of coal transported on the conveyor belt, so as to facilitate the subsequent adjustment of the rotation speed of the conveyor belt drive motor according to the predicted amount of coal, and then to facilitate the adjustment of the transport speed of the conveyor belt according to the actual amount of coal transported, which is beneficial to speed up the transportation efficiency when the amount of coal is large, and is also convenient for reducing the ineffective workload of the conveyor belt and the drive motor when the amount of coal is low, so as to help avoid wasting electricity while wasting the service life of the conveyor belt and the rotating roller, and then facilitate the intelligent management of the transport speed of the coal flow conveyor belt in coal flow management.
[0080] Speed control module, specifically:
[0081] Step 1: Obtain the coal flow transport coefficient, set a preset threshold value of the coal flow transport coefficient, and obtain a transport coefficient difference by subtracting the coal flow transport coefficient from the preset threshold value of the coal flow transport coefficient;
[0082] Step 2: Set the comparison period to 10 seconds, set the drive motor speed adjustment range, and compare the transport coefficient difference with 0 every 10 seconds. If the transport coefficient difference is greater than 0, the conveyor belt drive motor is controlled to increase the speed based on the drive motor speed adjustment range. If the transport coefficient difference is less than 0, the conveyor belt drive motor is controlled to reduce the speed based on the drive motor speed adjustment range.
[0083] In this embodiment, by setting the comparison period and the speed adjustment range, it is convenient to detect the coal in a periodic cycle and adjust the speed of the drive motor, thereby facilitating the intelligent adjustment of the coal transportation speed according to the actual coal transportation volume.
[0084] The deviation alarm module is as follows:
[0085] Step 1: Obtain a reference image in the visual monitoring module, obtain the coal overlooking area in the reference image after grayscale processing, obtain the brightness of the conveyor belt edge, capture the conveyor belt edge position in the reference image after grayscale processing through the conveyor belt edge brightness, and measure the distance between the coal overlooking area and the conveyor belt edge position to obtain multiple margin values;
[0086] Step 2: setting a preset threshold value for the margin ratio, obtaining multiple margin reference values by multiplying the preset threshold value for the margin ratio by multiple margin values, arranging the multiple margin reference values in ascending order, and obtaining a minimum margin value and a majority margin value of the margin reference values;
[0087] Step 3: Set the preset threshold of edge safety distance, and compare the preset threshold of edge safety distance with the minimum margin value and the majority margin value respectively. If both the minimum margin value and the majority margin value are greater than the preset threshold of edge safety distance, the coal position is marked as safe. If both the minimum margin value and the majority margin value are less than the preset threshold of edge safety distance, the coal position is marked as dangerous and an alarm is issued to alert the management personnel.
[0088] In this embodiment, the reference image in the visual inspection module is further analyzed to estimate the distance between the coal and the edge of the conveyor belt.

The intelligent coal flow management system based on visual AI autonomous decision-making according to claim 2 is characterized by: The deviation alarm module is as follows: Step 1: Obtain a reference image in the visual monitoring module, obtain the coal overlooking area in the reference image after grayscale processing, obtain the brightness of the conveyor belt edge, capture the conveyor belt edge position in the reference image after grayscale processing through the conveyor belt edge brightness, and measure the distance between the coal overlooking area and the conveyor belt edge position to obtain multiple margin values; Step 2: setting a preset threshold value for the margin ratio, obtaining multiple margin reference values by multiplying the preset threshold value for the margin ratio by multiple margin values, arranging the multiple margin reference values in ascending order, and obtaining a minimum margin value and a majority margin value of the margin reference values; Step 3: Set the preset threshold of edge safety distance, and compare the preset threshold of edge safety distance with the minimum margin value and the majority margin value respectively. If both the minimum margin value and the majority margin value are greater than the preset threshold of edge safety distance, the coal position is marked as safe. If both the minimum margin value and the majority margin value are less than the preset threshold of edge safety distance, the coal position is marked as dangerous and an alarm is issued to alert the management personnel.
