BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0034] Figure 1 It is a three-dimensional structure diagram of the flexible sheet processing device in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0035] Figure 2 It is a flowchart of the flexible sheet processing method in the embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] To describe the technical content, structural features, achieved purposes, and effects of the present invention in detail, the following is described in detail in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0037] This embodiment discloses a flexible sheet processing method for dividing and processing materials such as leather, textile fabrics, and synthetic fabrics into multiple structural parts. First, it should be noted that as Figure 1, the processing method in this embodiment is automatically operated based on the projection device 10 and the processing device 20. The processing device 20 can automatically move on the workbench 30 according to the pre-generated electronic layout drawing to perform splitting processing on the flexible sheet. The projection device 10 projects the electronic layout drawing onto the flexible sheet, so that the user can monitor whether the execution of the processing device 20 is correct and classify and sort the structural parts based on the projected electronic layout drawing.

[0038] For this, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the processing method in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0039] S1: Obtain an electronic layout drawing adapted to the flexible sheet, and send the electronic layout drawing to the projection device 10 and the processing device 20.

[0040] S2: Based on the projection device 10, project the electronic layout drawing onto the flexible sheet in the unfolded state located on the workbench 30.

[0041] S3: Determine whether the electronic layout drawing projected by the projection device 10 matches the flexible sheet in terms of spatial position. If so, execute S5; if not, execute S4.

[0042] S4: Adjust the projection direction of the projection device 10, and return to step S3.

[0043] S5: Based on the processing device 20, perform processing operations on the flexible sheet.

[0044] For the flexible sheet processing method in this embodiment, the layout drawing is projected onto the flexible sheet through the projection device 10 to help the user monitor the processing process and classify and sort the structural parts. When the layout drawing projected by the projection device 10 does not match the flexible sheet, the projection direction of the projection device 10 is automatically adjusted instead of moving the material, saving time, reducing manual intervention, and effectively improving work efficiency.

[0045] On the other hand, at least two first positioning marks are preset on the surface of the flexible sheet, and virtual second positioning marks corresponding to the first positioning marks are set in the electronic layout drawing;

[0046] The method for adjusting the projection direction of the projection device 10 includes:

[0047] Capture the surface image of the flexible sheet through the image acquisition device, and calculate the coordinate difference between the first positioning mark and the second positioning mark in the surface image;

[0048] Generate an adjustment parameter based on the coordinate difference, and adjust the projection direction of the projection device 10 based on the adjustment parameter so that the second positioning mark coincides with the first positioning mark in space.

[0049] Specifically, the first positioning identifier adopts an optically recognizable physical mark.

[0050] In this embodiment, the first positioning identifier is a physical identifier, and the second positioning identifier is a virtual identifier. Through the quantization and calibration mechanism of the "physical-virtual identifier pair", the effective projection positioning accuracy is improved. Experimental data shows that after using dual-identifier calibration on a 2m×3m substrate, the projection distortion error can be reduced from the traditional 4.7‰ to 0.8‰. Especially for composite materials with an elastic modulus > 5GPa, the coordinate difference algorithm can effectively improve the temperature deformation compensation efficiency.

[0051] On the other hand, in actual production, the flexible sheet is gradually and automatically moved into the processing area of the workbench 30 from one side of the workbench 30. Then, to further improve work efficiency, during the process of placing the flexible sheet on the workbench 30, when a part of the flexible sheet containing the first positioning identifier is in place and the other part is not, the projection direction of the projection device 10 is adjusted. In this way, when the flexible sheet completely enters the processing area, the projection direction of the projection device 10 has been adjusted in place, and at this time, the processing device 20 can be immediately started.

[0052] In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, a flexible sheet processing system based on projection is also disclosed, which includes:

[0053] A processing device 20, which is used to perform processing operations on the flexible sheet based on a pre-generated electronic layout diagram;

[0054] A projection device 10, which is used to project the pre-generated electronic layout diagram onto the flexible sheet in an unfolded state located on the workbench 30;

[0055] A detection device, which is used to detect whether the electronic layout diagram projected by the projection device 10 matches the flexible sheet in terms of spatial position;

[0056] The projection device 10 also adjusts the projection direction according to the detection result of the detection device, so as to make the electronic layout diagram projected by the projection device 10 match the flexible sheet in terms of spatial position.

[0057] On the other hand, at least two first positioning identifiers are preset on the surface of the flexible sheet, and virtual second positioning identifiers corresponding to the first positioning identifiers are set in the electronic layout diagram.

[0058] The detection device includes an image acquisition device and an image processing device.

[0059] The image acquisition device is used to capture the surface image of the flexible sheet.

[0060] The image processing device is used to process the surface image to calculate the coordinate difference between the first positioning identifier and the second positioning identifier in the surface image, and generate an adjustment parameter based on the coordinate difference.

[0061] The projection device 10 adjusts the projection direction of the projection device 10 based on the adjustment parameters.

[0062] Specifically, the first positioning identifier adopts a physically marked optical recognition.

[0063] On the other hand, during the process of placing the flexible sheet into the workbench 30, when a part of the flexible sheet containing the first positioning identifier is placed in place and the other part is not, the projection device 10 starts to adjust the projection direction.

[0065] The present invention also discloses another flexible sheet processing system, which includes one or more processors, a memory, and one or more programs. Among them, the one or more programs are stored in the memory and are configured to be executed by the one or more processors. The programs include instructions for executing the flexible sheet processing method as described above. The processor may adopt a general-purpose central processing unit (CPU), a microprocessor, an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), or one or more integrated circuits to execute the relevant programs to implement the functions required to be executed by the modules in the flexible sheet processing system of the embodiments of the present application, or to execute the flexible sheet processing method of the method embodiments of the present application.

[0066] The present invention also discloses a computer-readable storage medium, which includes a computer program that can be executed by a processor to complete the flexible sheet processing method as described above. The computer-readable storage medium may be any available medium that can be accessed by a computer or a data storage device such as a server or a data center that integrates one or more available media. The available medium may be a read-only memory (ROM), a random access memory (RAM), a magnetic medium, such as a floppy disk, a hard disk, a magnetic tape, a magnetic disk, or an optical medium, such as a digital versatile disc (DVD), or a semiconductor medium, such as a solid-state disk (SSD), etc.

A processor of an electronic device reads the computer instructions from the computer-readable storage medium, and the processor executes the computer instructions, so that the electronic device executes the above-mentioned flexible sheet processing method.
