Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of logistics technology, and particularly to the field of roller conveyor of goods in a cargo station. Background Art

[0002] In the existing cargo station logistics, the types of goods transported are numerous, and the proportion of large-sized goods is relatively high, and the required transportation equipment is also relatively complex. Generally, in order to better integrate discrete goods or to protect the goods from damage during transportation, such goods are placed on pallets for transportation. Among many transportation equipment, the belt conveyor in the cargo station logistics may cause serious wear to the belt due to the presence of large-sized goods. Relatively speaking, the application of a roller conveyor device in this scenario is more suitable. However, due to the variety of pallets, the bottom structure of the pallet may not be suitable for roller conveyor, and the supporting wooden strips at the lower end of the wooden box loaded with goods are parallel to the axial direction of the roller, resulting in the bottom of the pallet or the bottom of the wooden box getting stuck in the gap between the rollers, greatly affecting the transportation efficiency, and in serious cases, goods congestion may occur; secondly, the pallets suitable for transportation on the roller conveyor may carry too heavy goods, and there are too few bearing points between the bottom of the pallet and the roller, resulting in a risk of compression deformation and damage to the bottom of the pallet, increasing the cost. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a device and method for identifying and processing the transportability of pallet materials, aiming at the above problems existing currently, to solve the adaptability problem of the roller conveyor device for transporting pallet materials, and to avoid the situations of pallet jamming, material jamming and preventing pallet damage.

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: A device for identifying and processing the transportability of pallet materials includes a receiving device, and further includes a pallet profile detection device and a data analysis device. The pallet profile detection device is arranged on the receiving device; the data analysis device is arranged on one side of the pallet profile detection device and is signal-connected to the pallet profile detection device; a pallet distribution device is arranged on one side of the receiving device; the pallet profile detection device includes a camera for collecting the bottom image of the pallet material and the image information above the receiving device, and the data analysis device includes an image recognition algorithm module for identifying whether the bottom image of the pallet material can be transported on the receiving device; when the image recognition algorithm module determines that the pallet material cannot be transported on the receiving device, the pallet distribution device transports an auxiliary carrier onto the receiving device, and the auxiliary carrier is placed under the pallet material to isolate the pallet material and the receiving device.

[0005] Through the above structure, the image recognition algorithm module determines whether the tray material can be conveyed on the rollers of the receiving device. When it cannot be conveyed, the tray distribution device conveys the auxiliary carrier to the receiving device, so that the tray material can be conveyed on the rollers without jamming the tray, jamming the material, and preventing the tray from being damaged.

[0006] Further, the image recognition algorithm module identifying whether the bottom image of the tray material can be conveyed on the receiving device specifically includes: The image recognition algorithm module calculates the size of the convex structure at the bottom of the tray material and the length size of the tray material in the vertical conveying direction through the image, and compares the size of the convex structure at the bottom of the tray material with the gap distance between the rollers of the receiving device. Secondly, the secondary determination content includes comparing the evenly distributed weight of the bearing points where the tray contacts the roller with the minimum bearing capacity for the tray to undergo plastic deformation; If the size of the protruding structure at the bottom of the tray material is greater than the gap distance between the rollers, then compare the length size of the tray material in the vertical conveying direction with the width of the conveying surface of the receiving device. If the length size of the tray material in the vertical conveying direction is less than the width of the conveying surface of the receiving device, it is determined that the bottom structure and contour size of the tray material are suitable for conveying on the receiving device; If the size of the protruding structure at the bottom of the tray material is less than the gap distance between the rollers and the length size of the tray material in the vertical conveying direction is less than the width of the conveying surface of the receiving device, it is determined that the bottom structure and contour size of the tray material are not suitable for conveying on the receiving device; If the length size of the tray material in the vertical conveying direction is greater than the width of the conveying surface of the receiving device, readjust the tray direction and reload; If it is initially determined that the bottom structure and contour size of the tray material are suitable for conveying on the receiving device, a secondary determination is required. Calculate the number of convex beams at the bottom of the tray parallel to the conveying direction through the image, and then calculate the number of contact bearing points between the bottom of the tray material and the receiving device. Based on the number of bearing points, evenly distribute the weight of the tray material. If the evenly distributed bearing weight of each bearing point is less than the minimum load weight for the tray to undergo plastic deformation, it is determined that the bottom structure and contour size of the tray material are completely suitable for conveying on the receiving device; otherwise, it is determined that the bottom structure and contour size of the tray material are not suitable for conveying on the receiving device.

[0007] Through the above structure, the image recognition algorithm module compares the size of the convex structure at the bottom of the tray material with the gap distance between the rollers of the receiving device, the bearing points, etc. to determine whether the tray material can be conveyed, and performs adaptation operations on the materials that are not suitable for conveying on the receiving device to ensure the normal transportation of the tray material on the receiving device (e.g., roller conveyor).

[0008] Further, the tray profile detection device includes a light and shadow support disposed on the receiving device. The two side rods of the light and shadow support are fixedly connected to the two sides of the receiving device. A display and a camera mounting bracket I are provided on the cross bar of the light and shadow support. A camera I for collecting the image information of the prompt area and the devices above the area of the receiving device is obliquely provided on the camera mounting bracket I.

[0009] Further, the tray profile detection device further includes a main camera mounting bracket disposed below the receiving device. The two side rods of the main camera mounting bracket are fixedly connected to the two sides of the receiving device; a camera mounting bracket II is provided on one side rod of the main camera mounting bracket. A camera II for collecting the bottom image information of the tray material before feeding is provided on the camera mounting bracket II; a camera III for collecting the bottom image information of the tray material and the position information of the auxiliary carrier on the receiving device is provided at the center of the cross bar of the main camera mounting bracket.

[0010] Through the above structure, information such as the bottom image of the tray material is collected, and the data analysis device analyzes whether the tray material can be conveyed, thereby avoiding the occurrence of tray jamming and tray damage.

[0011] Further, a centering device is provided directly below the prompt area of the receiving device. The centering device includes a driving body and a push rod. The driving body is in transmission connection with the push rod, and the driving body drives the push rod to extend or retract; the height of the push rod is greater than the height of the roller of the receiving device, and the width of the push rod is less than the roller gap of the receiving device; by driving the driving body to drive the push rod, the auxiliary carrier is adjusted to be directly below the tray material.

[0012] Through the above structure, the centering device adjusts the auxiliary carrier to be directly below the tray material, avoiding the situation of material tipping due to inclined placement. The tray material is normally conveyed on the roller, increasing the conveying efficiency.

[0013] Further, a region display device is further connected to the cross bar of the light and shadow support. The region display device projects a prompt area on the receiving device where the tray material should be placed.

[0014] Further, the tray material is placed at the position of the prompt area of the receiving device by the transfer device; a pressure sensor for detecting the weight of the tray material is built in the support structure of the receiving device; the image recognition algorithm module reads the number information and the contour volume of the tray material from the image obtained by the tray profile detection device.

[0015] Through the above structure, the device can bind and upload the contour volume, weight, number information of the tray material and the number information of the auxiliary carrier to the data analysis device, facilitating the monitoring and tracking of the subsequent conveying of the tray material.

[0016] The present application also includes a method for identifying and processing the transportability of tray materials, including: During the process of the transfer device placing the tray material directly above the prompt area of the receiving device, Camera II and Camera III collect image information of the bottom of the tray material and upload the collected image information to the data analysis device; The image recognition algorithm module of the data analysis device calculates and determines whether the bottom structure of the current tray material can be transported on the receiving device; When the judgment result is that the bottom structure of the current tray material cannot be adapted to be transported on the receiving device: The display shows information of waiting for material placement and pattern warnings (including: green pattern, yellow pattern, red pattern). Among them, when both the preliminary determination and the secondary determination are that the bottom structure and contour dimensions of the tray material are adapted to be transported on the receiving device, the display shows the green pattern information of completely transportable; when the preliminary determination is that the bottom structure and contour dimensions of the tray material are adapted to be transported on the receiving device, and the secondary determination is that the bottom structure and contour dimensions of the tray material are not adapted to be transported on the receiving device, the display shows the yellow pattern information of warning non - transportable; when the preliminary determination is that the bottom structure and contour dimensions of the tray material are not adapted to be transported on the receiving device, the display shows the red pattern information of non - transportable; The tray distribution device transports the auxiliary carrier to the transport surface of the prompt area of the receiving device; Camera I and Camera II collect the position information of the auxiliary carrier on the transport surface of the receiving device and upload it to the data analysis device; After data analysis by the data analysis device, it controls the centering device to work, the push rod contracts, and pushes the auxiliary carrier to the middle position of the transport surface of the receiving device; Camera I collects the image information on the auxiliary carrier and uploads it to the data analysis device, and the data analysis device matches the corresponding weight information of the auxiliary carrier; The area display device projects the prompt area where the tray material should be placed on the auxiliary carrier; Camera I collects the image information of the auxiliary carrier and the prompt area on the auxiliary carrier, and then displays it on the display; The transfer device places the tray material at the correct position on the auxiliary carrier according to the image and the prompt area on the display; Camera I, Camera II and Camera III collect the image information of the tray material, upload it to the data analysis device, and the data analysis device judges whether the material placement is completed through the image recognition algorithm; after the material placement is completed, the data analysis device obtains the contour volume and the number information of the tray material through the image recognition algorithm, and then the total weight of the tray material and the auxiliary carrier is measured by the pressure sensor built inside the receiving device and uploaded to the data analysis device; The data analysis device calculates and deducts the weight of the auxiliary carrier to obtain the weight of the pallet material; the data analysis device integrates and binds the previously acquired pallet material number information, pallet material outline volume, weight, and auxiliary carrier number information to facilitate subsequent monitoring of detailed materials; finally, the receiving device transports the pallet material and the auxiliary carrier to the back end.

[0017] Furthermore, the image recognition algorithm module calculates the protrusion size X1 of the bottom of the pallet and the length size Y1 of the pallet in the vertical conveying direction through the image of the bottom of the pallet, and compares X1 and Y1 with the gap distance X3 between the rollers of the receiving device and the width size Y2 of the conveying surface of the receiving device respectively: If Y1≥Y2, notify the transfer device to readjust the direction of the pallet and reload the material; If Y1<Y2, and X1<X3, it is determined that the bottom structure of the current pallet material cannot be adapted to transportation on the receiving device; If Y1<Y2, and X1≥X3, it is determined that the bottom structure of the current pallet material is suitable for transportation on the receiving device.

[0018] Furthermore, for the result that the bottom structure of the current pallet material is determined to be suitable for transportation on the receiving device, a secondary determination data comparison is performed: Calculation of the number of load-bearing points: n=m(X2 / X3-(X2-2*X1) / X3-1) (taking a four-corner “U”-shaped pallet as an example), where m is the number of raised beams on the bottom of the pallet parallel to the conveying direction. Taking a four-corner “U”-shaped pallet as an example, m=4; n=m(X2 / X3-1) (taking the “田” type pallet as an example), m is the number of raised beams on the bottom of the pallet parallel to the conveying direction. Taking the “田” type pallet as an example, m=3; Load point weight calculation: Wgn=Wg / n, Wg is the total weight of the pallet material; Load capacity verification comparison: If Wgn≥W, where W is the minimum load of the plastic deformation of the pallet, it is determined that the bottom structure of the current pallet material cannot adapt to transportation on the receiving device. At this time, the receiving device returns the pallet material, and the transfer device receives the returned pallet material at the return end. Then, the pallet distribution device transports the auxiliary carrier to the conveying surface of the prompt area of ​​the receiving device, and the transfer device reloads the pallet material. If Wgn<W, it is determined that the bottom structure of the current pallet material is suitable for transportation on the receiving device.

[0019] Furthermore, the method further comprises the following steps: When the judgment result is that the bottom structure of the current pallet material can be adapted for transportation on the receiving device: The display shows information that can be directly discharged; The area display device projects the prompt area where the tray material should be placed on the receiving device; The transfer device places the tray material on the prompt area of the receiving device; Camera I, Camera II, and Camera III collect the image information of the tray material and upload it to the data analysis device. The data analysis device determines whether the material placement is completed through an image recognition algorithm; after the material placement is completed, the data analysis device obtains the contour volume of the tray material and the number information of the tray material through the image recognition algorithm, and then the pressure sensor built inside the receiving device measures the weight of the tray material and uploads it to the data analysis device; The data analysis device uniformly integrates and binds the previously obtained tray material number information, tray material contour volume, and weight information for subsequent monitoring of the detailed materials; finally, the receiving device transports the tray material and the auxiliary carrier to the rear end.

Taking the four-corner "square" type pallet as an example, m = 4; n = m(X2 / X3 - 1) (taking the "field" type pallet as an example), m is the number of raised beams at the bottom of the pallet parallel to the conveying direction.
