Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a robot, in particular to a garbage sorting robot based on deep learning, belonging to the technical field of garbage sorting. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of modern urban science and technology and the continuous improvement of residents' living standards, the amount of domestic garbage has shown an explosive growth trend. The randomly discarded garbage has not only seriously damaged the clean appearance and ecological environment of the city, but also posed an unprecedented challenge to the traditional garbage sorting and treatment methods that rely on manual labor. Although the traditional mode of manual sorting has played an important role in the past, facing the huge amount of garbage disposal today, its inherent disadvantages such as time-consuming, labor-intensive and inefficient are becoming more and more prominent, and it is difficult to effectively cope with large-scale and high-intensity garbage disposal needs. At the same time, with the development of social economy, labor costs continue to rise, making the economic cost of manual sorting continue to increase, bringing a heavy economic burden to the entire garbage disposal industry. More importantly, human factors such as fatigue caused by long-term work and difficulty in continuous concentration can easily cause errors in the sorting process, thereby affecting the efficiency and final treatment effect of subsequent garbage disposal, especially in the face of garbage with complex and varied compositions, a wide variety and different characteristics. The limitations of manual sorting are even more exposed, and the classification results are often difficult to achieve ideal conditions; in addition, the shortcomings of traditional garbage disposal methods in terms of environmental protection cannot be ignored. Due to incomplete sorting or incorrect classification, a large number of recyclable resources are mistakenly mixed with other garbage, which not only causes a huge waste of resources, but may also be polluted due to improper handling; at the same time, if harmful substances are mishandled, it is more likely to cause serious environmental pollution problems and cause long-term and irreversible damage to the ecological environment. In addition, potential safety hazards in the manual sorting process, such as scratches from sharp objects and direct contact with toxic and harmful substances, also pose a serious threat to the health of people engaged in sorting work and increase occupational risks.

[0003] In view of the many drawbacks of manual picking and sorting, the automation and intelligent transformation in the field of mobile garbage picking has become an inevitable trend in the development of the industry.

[0004] In recent years, garbage sorting robot technology has made significant progress. These robots can accurately identify and sort out various types of garbage, including recyclables, hazardous waste, wet garbage, etc. by integrating advanced technologies such as advanced sensors, machine vision, and artificial intelligence algorithms. Compared with traditional manual sorting, garbage sorting robots have higher sorting efficiency, lower error rate, and stronger environmental adaptability, which effectively improves the automation and intelligence level of garbage disposal. In the future, garbage sorting robot technology will continue to develop in the direction of intelligence and precision. With the continuous maturity of artificial intelligence technologies such as machine learning and deep learning, garbage sorting robots will have stronger autonomous learning capabilities, and will be able to continuously optimize sorting algorithms and improve sorting accuracy and efficiency. At the same time, combined with technologies such as the Internet of Things and big data, garbage sorting robots will be interconnected with other devices to build a more complete garbage disposal ecosystem.

[0005] The garbage sorting mobile robot is an innovative robot platform that integrates a robot chassis, a control system module, and an intelligent perception system module. Its design process includes three aspects: mechanics, control, and intelligent perception.

[0006] First, in terms of mechanics, the use of a wheeled chassis as a mobile platform enables the robot to move freely on various surfaces and in various environments. The wheeled chassis ensures that the robot has good passability and stability through the combination of tires, drive devices and suspension systems. Secondly, the actuator is a key component of the robot and is responsible for completing various tasks. It can be a flexible robotic arm for fine movements such as handling, assembly and operation; it can also be other types of actuators, such as various tools and sensors, to meet the needs of different tasks. The design and control capabilities of the actuator directly affect the function and performance of the robot. Finally, in terms of control, the control system plays the role of the "brain" of the robot, responsible for real-time monitoring and control of the robot's movement and operation. This requires combining the research content of the three aspects of mechanics, control and intelligent perception to ensure the rationality of the robot system design, and complete the processing and installation of the mechanical parts of the robot system and the overall motion debugging.

[0007] In the prior art, the intelligent garbage sorting robot disclosed in announcement number CN116985090A includes a motion module, an action module and a control system; the motion module includes a chassis walking device consisting of four Mecanum wheels and a motor; the action module includes a six-axis robotic arm and a robotic claw; the wrist of the six-axis robotic arm is equipped with an Intel RealSense D455 binocular camera; the bottom control system completes the control of the motor and the servo and the obstacle avoidance sensor signal processing, and the upper processing system completes SLAM mapping, positioning and navigation, garbage classification, positioning and path planning of the robotic arm grasping based on laser radar and ROS, and the information processed by the upper processing system is sent to the bottom control system through serial port communication to adjust the speed of the motor and control the various servos of the robotic arm, thereby controlling the movement of the robot and the movement of the robotic arm. The present invention identifies the domestic garbage in the designated area, distinguishes the type of garbage it belongs to, completes the positioning, picking and classification operations, and realizes the fully automatic unmanned garbage sorting work in the designated area through the mobile search of the robot. Although some automated sorting equipment has been put into use in the current market, its popularity is still insufficient, and the technical level is uneven, making it difficult to fully cover and meet the urgent needs of the garbage disposal industry for efficient and accurate sorting. What is particularly critical is that the lack of support from advanced intelligent recognition systems and efficient algorithms makes it difficult for existing systems to quickly and accurately identify and sort out various types of garbage, especially those with different shapes and complex characteristics, thereby limiting the further improvement of garbage disposal efficiency and accuracy. In addition, although existing robots can realize automatic grasping, transportation and sorting of garbage, the sorting efficiency is low, and the sorting accuracy is also low, which cannot actually and effectively alleviate the pressure of manual sorting. The garbage classification image feature database cannot be improved, and the sorting strategy cannot be optimized using big data analysis technology, which leads to the inability to improve the adaptability and stability of the system, and it is impossible to ensure that efficient and accurate sorting can be achieved in different scenarios.

[0024] Embodiment 2, in addition to all the technical features of Embodiment 1, this embodiment also includes: the frame body 1 includes two supporting bottom plates, the docking bottom surfaces of the two supporting bottom plates are connected to a docking seat 13, the robot arm mechanism and the garbage storage mechanism are installed on the upper plate surface of one of the supporting bottom plates of the frame body 1, the control host 6 is installed on the upper plate surface of the other supporting bottom plate of the frame body 1, and the lower plate surface of the other supporting bottom plate is fixedly connected to a battery 12, so that the frame body 1 can be disassembled through the docking seat 13, thereby facilitating the assembly of the robot.

[0025] The traveling mechanism includes a reduction motor 9 and a Mecanum wheel 10. The Mecanum wheels 10 are rotatably connected to the four corners of the frame body 1, and the four Mecanum wheels 10 are symmetrically arranged. Each Mecanum wheel 10 is matched with a reduction motor 9. The reduction motor 9 and the Mecanum wheel 10 are connected through a coupling. The reduction motor 9 drives the Mecanum wheel 10 to move, so that the robot has good maneuverability and flexibility, and adopts a four-wheel drive mode to adapt to various road surfaces and various paths.

[0026] The mechanical arm structure includes a mechanical claw 2, a servo 5, a pan-tilt 11 and a connecting rod 16. Both ends of the connecting rod 16 are respectively connected to the servo 5. Three servos 5 are provided. The pan-tilt 11 is fixedly connected to the frame body 1. The servo 5 at the bottom is installed on the pan-tilt 11.

The upper end of the main box body 4 has no cover, and the detachable garbage basket 7 is built in the main box body 4. The hinge door 8 is movably connected to one side of the main box body 4. The position of the detachable garbage basket 7 is fixed by the main box body 4, and the detachable garbage basket 7 can be easily taken out and placed by opening the hinge door 8, so that the garbage placed in the garbage basket can be easily cleaned.

[0028] Embodiment 3. In addition to all the technical features of Embodiment 1, this embodiment also includes: the target recognition module of the garbage identification system performs target detection and target classification on the image obtained by the camera through the SSD_Mobilenet_V2 deep learning algorithm. The sorting control module of the garbage identification system includes a camera 3 and a contact sensor 15. The camera 3 is installed in front of the uppermost servo 5. The contact sensor 15 is connected to the center of the claw of the mechanical claw 2 so that the garbage to be grabbed can be photographed by the camera 3. The image obtained by the camera 3 is subjected to target detection and target classification through the SSD_Mobilenet_V2 deep learning algorithm. The coordinates and angle information of the target are obtained as input information of the sorting control module, and then the mechanical claw 2 is controlled to aim at the garbage. When the contact sensor 15 touches the garbage, it means that the mechanical claw 2 moves into place.

[0029] The navigation module of the garbage identification system includes a laser radar 14, which is installed at the bottom of the gimbal 11. The laser radar 14 is used to collect environmental information of the cleaning area, realize the SLAM function based on the scan matching algorithm, and traverse the cleaning area through the optimal path algorithm for path planning. The laser radar 14 uses an 8000 sampling frequency to ensure the quality of map construction when the robot moves at a high speed.

Then, the contour map of the surrounding environment is obtained and a 2D plane image is constructed. In order to enable the robot to navigate at the fastest speed, the robot uses the latest Raspberry Pi 5 4B board to process navigation, which is light, easy to carry and has good performance. The single-chip microcomputer uses STM32F405, which is mainly used to control the deceleration DC motor. Using a high-frequency (168MHz) STM32F4 can increase the reaction speed and make walking more coordinated.

[0030] Embodiment 4. This embodiment provides an identification and control method for a garbage sorting robot based on deep learning. The garbage sorting robot mentioned in this embodiment is the garbage sorting robot based on deep learning mentioned in Embodiments 1 to 3. When in use, ensure that the garbage sorting robot is in patrol mode and is placed on a road surface in a spacious area with a suitable environment (community, park, etc.).

[0031] Furthermore, the automatic mobile garbage sorting robot is placed at a designated starting position, ensuring that it has unimpeded access to a power source or that the battery is sufficiently charged, and the robot is started through a remote control, a mobile phone APP or a preset program to perform self-inspection and calibration, including initialization of sensors, cameras, navigation systems, etc.

[0032] Furthermore, the robot uses built-in laser radar, camera and SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping) technology to autonomously navigate in the venue, autonomously plan paths, avoid obstacles, and ensure safe and efficient movement. It also captures garbage images through high-definition cameras and uses deep learning algorithms to quickly analyze the images and identify the types of garbage. This process relies on a pre-trained model that can accurately distinguish different types of garbage.

[0033] Furthermore, once the visual module identifies the type of garbage, the robot will use the integrated mechanical arm or gripping device to accurately grab or absorb the target garbage based on the identification result. At the same time, according to the identified type of garbage, the robot will place the garbage into the corresponding classified garbage bin. This process may involve the robot dynamically adjusting its position and direction to ensure the accuracy of placement.

[0034] Furthermore, during the entire sorting process, the robot will record sorting data in real time, including sorting speed, accuracy, quantity of various types of garbage, etc., to provide data support for subsequent operational optimization. Through the cloud platform or local control system, users can view the robot's working status and sorting report, and adjust parameters or upgrade software as needed to continuously improve sorting efficiency and accuracy.

[0035] Furthermore, regularly inspect and maintain the robot's mechanical parts, sensors, batteries, etc. to ensure they are in good working condition. Clean the dirt and garbage residue on the robot's surface, and keep the camera and sensors clean to avoid affecting recognition and navigation performance.

[0036] Furthermore, when the power level is below the set threshold, the robot will automatically return to the charging station for charging without human intervention. When the robot is not needed, it can be manually turned off through the remote control or APP to save energy. When the device starts the automatic patrol mode, camera 3, as the core component of the visual system, instantly captures environmental images and autonomously analyzes and identifies garbage targets within the field of view.

[0037] Once the target garbage is successfully identified, the device immediately starts the garbage sorting process. The process first uses the camera 3 to accurately aim at the target garbage, collect its image information in real time, and upload it to the cloud server immediately. The automatic recognition mechanism embedded in the cloud server quickly processes these image data and uses deep learning algorithms for efficient analysis to determine the specific type of garbage.

[0038] Then, based on the instructions returned by the cloud, the control host 6 built into the device immediately plans an optimal path to guide the mechanical body to approach the target garbage smoothly and efficiently. During the approach process, the target recognition module accurately extracts the contour information of the target garbage, and sets multiple sampling points on this basis to construct a detailed set of garbage feature points. By mathematically fitting these feature points, the device can generate an accurate picking trajectory.

[0039] Then, the robot arm mechanism accurately completes the picking and lifting operation of the target garbage according to the picking trajectory. This process not only demonstrates the high-precision control capability of the device, but also demonstrates its flexible response capability in complex environments.

[0040] After successful collection, the device will perform preliminary classification of the garbage based on the results of big data analysis, and automatically place it in a pre-set garbage storage mechanism that matches the type of garbage. This process not only improves the accuracy of garbage classification, but also greatly improves the overall work efficiency and automation level.

[0041] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be considered as limiting the claim to which it relates.

[0042] In addition, it should be understood that although the present specification is described according to implementation modes, not every implementation mode contains only one independent technical solution. This description of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment may also be appropriately combined to form other implementation modes that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
