Description

Technical Field

[0002] In production and life, people often need to collect various external information, and after relevant processing of this information, make corresponding behaviors that are beneficial to production and life. The accuracy of external information collection is crucial. Now there are various external information collection devices on the market, and the collected information is also different.

[0003] In the unmanned supermarket project, computer vision technology can identify the types of goods based on the visual effects of the goods. In the application of computer vision technology, the computer needs to collect a large number of photos of each type of goods in advance, use a large number of photos as samples to establish a product recognition model, and obtain the appearance information of each product. In theory, the more photos entered into the database during modeling, the higher the accuracy of product recognition after modeling.

[0004] Generally speaking, each product needs thousands or even tens of thousands of photos from different angles and directions before it can be sold in unmanned supermarkets. Manual photo collection with traditional cameras or video cameras is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and slow. The photo collection process for each product generally takes 30-60 minutes, and the error rate is very high. At the same time, there is also a technology that uses a robot to drive the recognition device to move around the product for automatic photo collection. However, when collecting photos, the product is usually placed on a workbench. This method can only collect photos of the top and sides of the product, while the bottom of the product is blocked. It is necessary to manually adjust the position of the product and collect photos of the bottom of the product again. The operation is cumbersome and the degree of automation is low.

[0016] A method for using an artificial intelligence external information collection device includes the following steps:

[0017] S1. Place the goods that need to be photographed on the top of the front conveying mechanism. The controller controls the front conveying mechanism to start and convey the goods to the position of the flip conveying mechanism below. In the initial stage, the flip conveying mechanism below is flush with the conveying mechanism. When the goods move to the top of the flip conveying mechanism below, the controller controls the servo motor 4 to drive the conveying roller and the conveying belt to rotate and convey the goods to the middle of the front and rear position of the conveying belt.

[0018] S2, the controller controls the X-axis moving module, the Y-axis moving module and the Z-axis moving module to drive the installation back plate to move, and moves the connecting arm to the top of the goods. Then the controller controls the servo motor 1 and the servo motor 2 to adjust the direction and tilt angle of the binocular camera. At the same time, the controller controls the electric turntable to drive the transmission arm and the binocular camera to rotate, so that the binocular camera rotates around the goods. The binocular camera collects photos of the sides and top of the goods. After the collection, the controller controls the binocular camera to reset.

[0019] S3, the controller controls the two sets of electric telescopic rods to start, driving the two sets of flip conveying mechanisms to move to the middle of the rotating frame to clamp the goods, and monitors the thrust exerted by the electric telescopic rods on the flip conveying mechanisms through the push-pull force sensors. After the two sets of flip conveying mechanisms clamp the goods, the controller controls the reduction motor to drive the rotating frame, the two sets of flip conveying mechanisms and the goods to rotate 180 degrees to flip the position of the goods;

[0020] S4. When the two sets of flip conveyor mechanisms clamp the goods, the support rollers in the support assembly at the position in contact with the goods are compressed, causing the compression springs to be compressed and contracted, thereby forming inwardly concave positioning parts on the two sets of conveyor belts. The goods are restricted by the concave positions of the conveyor belts to prevent the goods from sliding down due to gravity when the two sets of flip conveyor mechanisms drive the goods to flip;

[0021] S5. The goods are flipped over to expose the bottom of the goods that are blocked. The controller controls the electric telescopic rod located above to drive the flipping conveying mechanism to move upward. Then the controller controls the binocular camera to move to collect photos of the bottom of the goods that are exposed after flipping.

[0022] S6. After collecting photos of the goods, the controller controls the electric telescopic rod below to drive the flip conveyor mechanism to move upward, so that the flip conveyor mechanism below is flush with the conveying mechanism again. At this time, the positioning claw is used to limit the positioning component in the flip conveyor mechanism below, and the positioning claw presses the positioning rod, and the positioning rod is limited by the support fork frame. The connecting seat transmission lifts up several supporting components as a whole, so that the position where the conveying belt in the flip conveyor mechanism below and the goods are matched is in a flat state, and then the controller controls the servo motor 4 in the flip conveyor mechanism below to drive the conveying belt to rotate, and the goods are transported to the rear conveying mechanism;

When the goods are turned over, the controller controls the second electric telescopic rod to drive the conveying mechanism to move to the side away from the mounting support.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0025] 1. The artificial intelligence external information collection device and its use method, transports the goods to the top of the flip conveying mechanism below through the conveying mechanism, and moves the connecting arm to the top of the goods through the mobile module, drives the binocular camera to move through the electric turntable, servo motor 1, and servo motor 2 to collect photos of the sides and top of the goods, and then drives the flip conveying mechanism to move and clamp the goods through two sets of electric telescopic rods, and drives the rotating frame, flip conveying mechanism and goods to flip through the reduction motor, and the blocked position of the bottom of the goods can be exposed by flipping, which is convenient for realizing comprehensive collection of photos of the goods and improving collection efficiency and automation.

[0026] 2. The artificial intelligence external information collection device and its use method are as follows: when the two sets of flip conveying mechanisms clamp the goods, the support components in contact with the goods can be compressed and contracted inward, thereby forming inwardly recessed positioning parts on the two sets of conveying belts to prevent the goods from sliding due to gravity when the two sets of flip conveying mechanisms drive the goods to flip and adjust.

[0027] 3. The artificial intelligence external information collection device and its use method, after collecting photos of the goods, drives the flip conveying mechanism below to move up through the electric telescopic rod, and moves the flip conveying mechanism below to a position flush with the conveying mechanism. At this time, the positioning claw is used to limit the positioning component in the flip conveying mechanism below, and the positioning claw presses the positioning rod and limits the positioning rod through the support fork frame. The supporting assembly can be lifted up as a whole through the connecting seat transmission, so that the position where the conveying belt in the flip conveying mechanism below cooperates with the goods is in a flat state, thereby realizing stable transportation of the goods.
