Real-time data on the state of the wood, including humidity, temperature, moisture content, etc., are collected by sensors. These data are used to determine the drying state of the wood and provide dynamic feedback. However, despite the significant advantages of intelligent manufacturing technology in wood drying systems, there are still some challenges and shortcomings. First, a large amount of real-time data is generated during the wood drying process, such as temperature, humidity, moisture content, wind speed, heating power, etc. Efficiently processing, storing, and analyzing this big data requires powerful computing power and efficient data management systems.
[0004] Secondly, wood drying systems usually involve multiple devices and control modules, such as heating sources, humidity adjustment devices, fans, etc. Ensuring the coordinated work of different devices and smooth information transmission is still a technical challenge.
[0005] To address the above problems, it is necessary to propose a furniture wood drying system based on intelligent manufacturing. SUMMARY
[0006] The present application aims to solve the problems in the background art and proposes a furniture wood drying system based on intelligent manufacturing.
[0007] The purpose of the present application can be achieved by the following technical solutions:
[0008] A furniture wood drying system based on intelligent manufacturing includes a material analysis module, a pretreatment control module, a drying control module, a post-treatment control module, and an inspection module.
[0009] The material analysis module collects the physical and chemical properties of the wood, including moisture content and appearance conditions, through sensors to determine the drying requirements of the wood.
[0010] The geometric size information of the wood is obtained, including the length L, width B, and thickness H.
[0011] A plurality of detection points are arranged on the surface of the wood, and the detection points are numbered, with the number being i; i = 1, 2, 3,..., n; wherein n is the total number of detection points. A three-dimensional perception coordinate system XOY of the wood is established with the corner point of the wood as the origin, the direction of the side length H as the X axis, and the direction of the width B as the Y axis.
[0012] The wood humidity is measured by a resistance hygrometer. Two electrodes are placed in two adjacent detection points i1 and i2 of the wood, and the resistance value R(i1, i2) between the two detection points is measured. Wherein i1∈i and i2∈i.
[0013] The wood moisture content MC(i1, i2) between the detection points i1 and i2 is calculated by the formula
[0014] The wood moisture content MC(i1, i2) between the detection points i1 and i2 is calculated by the formula
[0015] The uniformity of the wood moisture content is detected, and the wood moisture content uniformity index σ is calculated by the formula The wood moisture content uniformity index σ is calculated by the formula MC MC MC
[0016] As a preferred mode of the present application, the drying requirements of the wood are determined according to the wood moisture content average value, the wood moisture content uniformity index, and the wood moisture content continuity index, including the parameter setting of the surface humidity uniformization treatment and the parameter setting of the heating curve.
[0017] The parameter setting of the humidity uniformization treatment is specifically:
[0018] If the wood moisture content uniformity index σ MC is lower than a preset threshold value and the wood moisture content continuity index U MC is greater than a preset threshold value , it is determined that the wood directly enters the high-temperature heating process, and a first pretreatment execution symbol PRO1 = 0 is output.
[0019] Otherwise, it is determined that the wood moisture content distribution is discontinuous and uneven, and a first pretreatment execution symbol PRO1 = 1 is output.
[0020] And the wood moisture content continuity index U is calculated by the formula The surface moisture uniformization treatment parameters include a pre-treatment time Tpro and a pre-treatment heating power Ppro. Wherein γ1, γ2 and γ3 are preset influence indexes, K1, K2 and K3 are preset weight factors; Tpro0 is a preset initial pre-treatment time; wherein and are preset threshold values of the moisture content average, the moisture content uniformity index and the moisture content continuity index, respectively.
[0021] The heating curve parameter setting is specifically:

Wherein t1 is a preset temperature change time, and tfinal is a preset final time.
[0023] Let the initial temperature T0 and the moisture content average μ MC have the following relationship: Wherein β is a preset influence factor.
[0024] On the other hand, the coordinates (xi, yi, zi) of each detection point i in XOY in the perception coordinate system are obtained by the laser range finder. The surface flatness index PI is calculated by the formula Z . Wherein is the surface average height, and σ Z is the surface height standard deviation.
[0025] When PI Z is greater than a preset threshold value Let the second pre-treatment execution symbol PRO2 = 1; otherwise, let the second pre-treatment execution symbol PRO2 = 0.
[0026] The pre-treatment control module performs appearance pre-treatment and surface moisture uniformization treatment on the wood, ensures the wood surface flatness through surface flatness detection and scraping process, and ensures that the moisture distribution of the wood is relatively uniform when entering the drying process through the surface moisture uniformization treatment, reduces defects such as warping and cracking generated in the drying process, and provides stable initial conditions for subsequent drying. The specific process is as follows:
[0027] The first pre-treatment execution symbol PRO1 and the second pre-treatment execution symbol PRO2 are called. If PRO1 = 1, appearance pre-treatment is performed; if PRO2 = 1, surface moisture uniformization treatment is performed.
[0028] The appearance pre-treatment is specifically: the wood is sent into a scraping machine, and the scraping tool scrapes the wood surface to a preset depth d scrape = min{q × PI z, dmax, |zmax-zmin|} is performed on the wood surface, where q is an empirical coefficient, dmax is a preset standard scraping depth, and |zmax-zmin| is the difference between the maximum surface height and the minimum surface height. Ensure that each scraping covers all uneven areas of the wood surface until the flatness requirement, i.e., PI Z less than or equal to a preset threshold Exit the appearance pre-processing flow and set the first pre-processing execution symbol PRO1 = 0. Otherwise, re-execute the appearance pre-processing flow.
[0029] The surface moisture uniformity treatment specifically includes: immersing the wood in a water bath or steam tank, introducing moisture into the interior of the wood, and controlling the temperature and humidity of the liquid or steam for heat soaking treatment. Heating is performed according to the pre-processing heating power Fpro, and the duration is Tpro. After completing the heat soaking treatment, the temperature of the wood is slowly reduced to avoid stress caused by sudden temperature changes. After the temperature of the wood is reduced to a preset temperature, moisture content uniformity detection is performed again to obtain the average moisture content μ MC , the moisture content uniformity index σ MC , and the moisture content continuity index U MC When the conditions that the moisture content uniformity index σ MC is lower than a preset threshold and the moisture content continuity index U MC is greater than a preset threshold are met, exit the surface moisture uniformity treatment flow and set the second pre-processing execution symbol PRO2 = 0. Otherwise, re-execute the surface moisture uniformity treatment flow.
[0030] The drying control module calls the first pre-processing execution symbol PRO1 and the second pre-processing execution symbol PRO2. If PRO1 = 0 and PRO2 = 0, the overall drying flow is executed.
[0031] The overall drying flow specifically includes:
[0032] The wood is dried overall by multiple air sources and heating sources, and multiple heating sources and multiple air sources are fine-tuned based on a PID controller to ensure that the drying temperature is maintained within an optimal range, avoiding excessive drying or uneven drying.

Wherein Tmax is the highest temperature on the surface of the wood after the overall drying process, and η is the preset cooling influence factor; wherein T0 is the preset regression temperature, and T environment is the environmental temperature.
[0042] Retrieve the PID controller while performing temperature control through the cooling curve, and record the temperature Ti of each detection point i on the surface of the wood during the drying process in real time through the temperature sensor.

Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor belong to the scope of protection of the present application.
[0058] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown in the figure, a furniture wood drying system based on intelligent manufacturing, comprising a material analysis module, a pretreatment control module, a drying control module, a post-treatment control module and an inspection module.
[0059] The material analysis module collects the physicochemical properties of wood through sensors, including moisture content properties and appearance conditions, and judges the drying requirements of wood.
[0060] The geometric size information of wood is obtained, including side length L, width B and thickness H.
[0061] A number of detection points are arranged on the surface of the wood, and the detection points are numbered, the number symbol is i; i=1, 2, 3,..., n; Where n is the total number of detection points. The three-dimensional perception coordinate system XOY of the wood is established with the corner point of the wood as the origin, the side length H direction as the X axis and the width B direction as the Y axis.
[0062] The wood humidity is measured by resistance hygrometer, two electrodes are placed in two adjacent detection points i1 and i2 of the wood, and the resistance value R(i1, i2) between the two detection points of the wood is measured. Where i1∈i and i2∈i.
[0063] The formula is
[0064] The moisture content MC(i1, i2) between the detection points i1 and i2 is calculated. Wherein R0 is the resistance reference value; L(i1, i2) is the distance between the detection points i1 and i2, and p is the wood density, and p0 is the density reference value. Wherein A1 and A2 are empirical coefficients; K1 and K2 are influence indexes.
[0065] The uniformity of the moisture content of the wood is detected, and the formula The average value of the moisture content μ MC , the uniformity index of the moisture content σ MC and the continuity index of the moisture content U MC are calculated.
[0066] Further, the drying requirements of the wood are determined according to the average value of the moisture content, the uniformity index of the moisture content and the continuity index of the moisture content, including the parameter setting of the surface humidity uniformization treatment and the parameter setting of the heating curve.
[0067] The parameter setting of the humidity uniformization treatment is specifically:
[0068] If the uniformity index of the moisture content σ MC is lower than a preset threshold value and the continuity index of the moisture content U MC is greater than a preset threshold value , it is determined that the wood directly enters the high-temperature heating process, and a first pretreatment execution symbol PRO1=0 is output.
[0069] Otherwise, it is determined that the moisture content distribution of the wood is discontinuous and uneven, and direct heating drying will cause cracks or warping, so the wood needs to be subjected to surface humidity uniformization treatment first and then enter the high-temperature heating process, and a first pretreatment execution symbol PRO1=1 is output. Furthermore, the surface humidity uniformization treatment parameters including the pretreatment time Tpro and the pretreatment heating power Ppro are determined by the formula . Wherein γ1, γ2 and γ3 are preset influence indexes, K1, K2 and K3 are preset weight factors; Tpro0 is a preset initial pretreatment time; wherein and are the preset threshold values of the average value of the moisture content, the uniformity index of the moisture content and the continuity index of the moisture content, respectively.
[0070] The parameter setting of the heating curve is specifically:
[0071] A preset heating curve function, i.e. the relationship between the heating time t and the heating temperature T, is called: Wherein a is a temperature change index; T0 is an initial temperature, and Tfinal is a preset final temperature. Wherein t1 is a preset temperature change time, and tfinal is a preset final time.
[0072] Let the initial temperature T0 and the average moisture content μ of the wood be MC The relationship is: Where β is a preset influence factor.
[0073] On the other hand, the coordinates (xi, yi, zi) of each detection point i in XOY in the perception coordinate system are obtained by the laser range finder. The surface flatness index PI is calculated by the formula Z Where is the average height of the surface, and σ Z is the standard deviation of the surface height.
[0074] When PI Z is greater than a preset threshold Let the second pre-processing execution symbol PRO2 = 1; otherwise, let the second pre-processing execution symbol PRO2 = 0.

The specific process is:
[0076] The first pre-processing execution symbol PRO1 and the second pre-processing execution symbol PRO2 are called. If PRO1 = 1, appearance preprocessing is performed; if PRO2 = 1, surface moisture uniformization treatment is performed.
[0077] The appearance preprocessing specifically includes: feeding the wood into a scraping machine, and the scraping tool scrapes the wood surface at a set depth d scrape = min{q x PI z , dmax, |zmax-zmin|}, where q is an empirical coefficient, dmax is a preset standard scraping depth, and |zmax-zmin| is the difference between the maximum surface height and the minimum surface height. Ensure that each scraping covers all uneven areas of the wood surface until the flatness requirement is met, i.e., PI Z is less than or equal to a preset threshold Exit the appearance preprocessing process and let the first pre-processing execution symbol PRO1 = 0. Otherwise, re-execute the appearance preprocessing process.
[0078] It should be noted that the wood surface may have irregular or protruding parts that affect the overall heat transfer uniformity of the wood during the drying process. Therefore, mechanical scraping or trimming is needed to make the wood surface flat to reduce internal moisture differences caused by uneven heat transfer of the wood.
[0079] The surface moisture homogenization treatment specifically involves immersing the wood in a water bath or steam bath to introduce moisture into the wood, and controlling the temperature and humidity of the liquid or steam for a hot soaking treatment. Heating is performed according to the pretreatment heating power Fpro for a duration Tpro. After the hot soaking treatment is complete, the wood temperature is slowly reduced to avoid stress caused by sudden temperature changes. Once the wood temperature has decreased to a preset temperature, the moisture content uniformity is tested again to obtain the average moisture content μ. MC Moisture content uniformity index σ MC and moisture content continuity index U MC When the condition is met: moisture content uniformity index σ MC Below the preset threshold And the moisture content continuity index U MC Greater than the preset threshold If the condition is met, exit the surface humidity homogenization process and set the second preprocessing executor PRO2 to 0. Otherwise, re-execute the surface humidity homogenization process.
[0080] The drying control module retrieves the first preprocessing executor PRO1 and the second preprocessing executor PRO2. If PRO1 = 0 and PRO2 = 0, the overall drying process is executed.
[0081] The overall drying process is as follows:
[0082] The wood is dried as a whole by using multiple air and heat sources, and the drying temperature is kept within the optimal range by using a PID controller to fine-tune the multiple heat and air sources, thus avoiding over-drying or uneven drying.
[0083] The PID controller specifically refers to:

[0089] The post-processing control module maintains the environmental parameters of the wood after the overall drying process to prevent warping or cracking during the cooling process.
[0090] The environmental parameters include temperature and air speed.
[0091] Retrieve the preset cooling curve Ensure that the temperature difference between the surface and the interior of the wood gradually decreases, avoiding the generation of residual stress and deformation in the interior of the wood. Where Tmax is the highest temperature on the surface of the wood after the overall drying process, and η is the preset cooling influence factor; where T0 is the preset regression temperature, and T environment is the ambient temperature.

Through the formula Output the power adjustment value ΔP of each air source j1 wind and the power adjustment value ΔP of each heating source j2 warm j2, where j1 is the air source number symbol; j2 is the heating source number symbol; d(i, j1) is the distance from detection point i to air source j1; d(i, j2) is the distance from detection point i to heating source j2.
[0094] The inspection module conducts comprehensive quality detection on the wood to ensure that it meets the use standards. Quality detection includes moisture content, dimensional change, and surface quality inspection, etc., to ensure that the wood has good stability and quality during use.
[0095] Measure the resistance value R(i1, i2) between the two detection points of the wood again, and calculate the maximum moisture content MCmax(i1, i2).
