Moreover, when the factory building needs to be vacated, the large structures or equipment in the factory building can only be moved out of the factory building, which is time-consuming and laborious.

Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0026] Embodiment 1

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the present application provides a docking device for a trackless mobile plant, including: a first dual positioning antenna, a second dual positioning antenna and a reference station 3, wherein the first dual positioning antenna is arranged on the docked plant 1; the second dual positioning antenna is arranged on the active docking plant 2; the reference station 3 is fixedly arranged on a ground reference point at a known position; the reference station 3 is an existing RTK base station; the reference station 3 is a station providing known coordinates, and the active docking plant 2 and the passive docking plant are separated from the reference station 3 by a certain distance; the first dual positioning antenna and the second dual positioning antenna are in communication connection with the reference station 3. For example, the active docking plant 2 and the passive docking plant are separated from the reference station 3 by 15-20 kilometers.

[0028] It should be explained that the docking device of the trackless mobile factory building realizes the docking process of the active docking factory building 2 and the docked factory building 1 through the RTK dual-antenna positioning and orientation technology. During the docking process, the docked factory building 1 is ensured to be fixed, and the active docking factory building 2 moves and adjusts toward the docked factory building 1 or actively turns the docking factory building 2 according to the positions of the first dual positioning antenna and the second dual positioning antenna until the active docking factory building 2 and the docked factory building 1 are docked.

[0029] As a specific embodiment of the utility model, the first bidirectional positioning antenna includes two antennas, the two antennas are: A1 positioning antenna and A2 positioning antenna; A1 positioning antenna and A2 positioning antenna are respectively located at Figure 1The positions shown by A1 and A2 in the figure; the A1 positioning antenna and the A2 positioning antenna receive GPS or GNSS signals; the A1 positioning antenna and the A2 positioning antenna are symmetrically arranged at the two ends of the length direction of the docked factory building 1; and are both arranged on the top of the docked factory building 1. Preferably, the A1 positioning antenna and the A2 positioning antenna are located at the midpoint of the two ends of the top edge of the docked factory building 1. According to the position coordinates of the A1 positioning antenna and the A2 positioning antenna, the coordinates of the midpoint of the two ends of the docked factory building 1 can be obtained.

[0030] As a specific embodiment of the utility model, the two antennas of the first bidirectional positioning antenna are existing GPS antennas, and the two GPS antennas of the first bidirectional positioning antenna are fixedly connected to the top of the docked factory building 1 through existing fixing devices (such as bolts, screws, etc.), and the GPS antenna obtains its own position coordinates by receiving GPS signals. For example, the A1 positioning antenna and the A2 positioning antenna receive GPS signals, and the position coordinates of the A1 positioning antenna are obtained as (XA1, YA1), and the position coordinates of the A2 positioning antenna are obtained as (XA2, YA2). Then, according to the position coordinates of the A1 positioning antenna and the A2 positioning antenna, the coordinates of the midpoint positions of the two end edges of the docked factory building 1 are obtained as (XA1, YA1) and (XA2, YA2), respectively.

[0031] As a specific embodiment of the utility model, the second bidirectional positioning antenna includes two antennas, the two antennas are: B1 positioning antenna and B2 positioning antenna; B1 positioning antenna and B2 positioning antenna are respectively located at Figure 1 The B1 positioning antenna and the B2 positioning antenna receive GPS or GNSS signals; the B1 positioning antenna and the B2 positioning antenna are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the length direction of the active docking plant 2; and are both arranged on the top of the active docking plant 2. Preferably, the B1 positioning antenna and the B2 positioning antenna are located at the midpoint of the two ends of the top edge of the active docking plant 2.

[0032] As a specific embodiment of the utility model, the two antennas of the second bidirectional positioning antenna are existing GPS antennas, and the two GPS antennas of the second bidirectional positioning antenna are fixedly connected to the top of the active docking plant 2 through existing fixing devices, and the GPS antenna obtains its own position coordinates by receiving GPS signals. For example, the B1 positioning antenna and the B2 positioning antenna receive GPS signals, and the position coordinates of the B1 positioning antenna are obtained as (XB1, YB1), and the position coordinates of the B2 positioning antenna are obtained as (XB2, YB2). Then, according to the position coordinates of the B1 positioning antenna and the B2 positioning antenna, the coordinates of the midpoint positions of the two end edges of the active docking plant 2 are obtained as (XB1, YB1) and (XB2, YB2), respectively.

[0033] The first bidirectional positioning antenna and the second bidirectional positioning antenna of the utility model adopt the existing GPS antenna, and the GPS antenna can adopt the antenna of model AC-GPS-06 or AGPS20P-36C. The GPS antenna can also adopt an anti-interference GPS antenna structure disclosed by patent publication number CN218569211U. Here, the specific model of the GPS antenna adopted by the first bidirectional positioning antenna and the second bidirectional positioning antenna is not limited, as long as it can realize receiving GPS signals and obtaining its own position coordinates.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, an XY axis coordinate system is established, the angle between the line connecting the position coordinates of the A1 positioning antenna and the A2 positioning antenna and the X axis represents the straight-line heading angle of the antenna A1-A2, and the angle between the line connecting the position coordinates of the B1 positioning antenna and the B2 positioning antenna and the X axis represents the straight-line heading angle of the antenna B1-B2.

[0035] As a specific embodiment of the present utility model, in the process of actively docking the plant 2 and the docked plant 1, the following three operation steps are repeatedly performed:

[0036] Step 1: Compare the straight-line heading angle of antenna B1-B2 with the straight-line heading angle of antenna A1-A2 to obtain the difference between the two, and manipulate the steering angle of the active docking building 2 according to the comparison result (the difference between the straight-line heading angle of antenna B1-B2 and the straight-line heading angle of antenna A1-A2), thereby eliminating the need to repeatedly adjust the steering angle of the active docking building 2, thereby improving the docking efficiency between the active docking building 2 and the docked building 1.

[0037] Step 2: According to the position coordinates of the B1 positioning antenna, the A1 positioning antenna and the A2 positioning antenna, the active docking plant 2 is operated horizontally until the positions of the B1 positioning antenna, the A1 positioning antenna and the A2 positioning antenna form a straight line.

[0038] Step three, according to the position coordinates of the B1 positioning antenna, the A1 positioning antenna and the A2 positioning antenna, the active docking building 2 is operated longitudinally, so that the position of the B1 positioning antenna on the active docking building 2 moves toward the position of the A1 positioning antenna close to the docked building 1, thereby realizing the movement of the active docking building 2 closer to the docked building 1.

[0039] It should be explained that, considering the error of straight-line travel of large equipment (such as trackless mobile factories) and the required docking accuracy, it is necessary to repeat the above three steps after step three until the distance between the A2 positioning antenna and the B1 positioning antenna is used to determine whether the active docking factory 2 has completed docking with the docked factory 1.

[0040] As a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the second bidirectional positioning antenna has the same structure as the first bidirectional positioning antenna.

[0041] As a specific embodiment of the present invention, the line connecting the A1 positioning antenna and the A2 positioning antenna is parallel to the center line of the top surface of the docked plant 1. The line connecting the B1 positioning antenna and the B2 positioning antenna is parallel to the center line of the top surface of the active docking plant 2.

[0042] As a specific embodiment of the present utility model, during the process of docking the active docking plant 2 with the docked plant 1 , the docked plant 1 is fixed and the active docking plant 2 moves toward the docked plant 1 .

[0043] As a specific embodiment of the present utility model, during the process of the active docking building 2 moving toward the docked building 1, the moving distance, steering angle and / or whether the docking with the docked building 1 is completed of the active docking building 2 is determined according to the position coordinates of the A1 positioning antenna, the A2 positioning antenna, the B1 positioning antenna and the B2 positioning antenna.

[0044] As a specific embodiment of the present invention, in RTK positioning, the antennas on the reference station 3 and the mobile plant (active docking plant 2 or docked plant 1) simultaneously receive signals transmitted by multiple satellites, and use the difference between the signals to calculate the position of the active docking plant 2 or the docked plant 1 relative to the reference station 3. The reference station 3 has known coordinates and can provide accurate reference data, thereby improving the accuracy of the position measurement of the antenna on the active docking plant 2 or the docked plant 1.

[0045] It needs to be explained that RTK positioning technology is an existing technology. RTK positioning technology is actually a relative positioning. By deploying a reference station at a known position, the high spatial and temporal correlation between the error sources of the mobile station and the reference station is used to perform differential elimination of the GNSS satellite's orbit error, clock error, and most of the ionospheric errors and tropospheric errors, thereby achieving centimeter-level positioning and improving positioning accuracy.

[0046] The utility model uses an RTK base station to determine the relative coordinates of the active docking plant 2 and the docked plant 1. Since there is no need to use the absolute positioning function of RTK, there is no need to find a known point as the position of the RTK base station 3. The site is highly practical and has low site requirements. Two positioning antennas are installed on each of the two mobile plants to confirm the heading angle and fixed point position of the mobile plant. And through the heading angle and the antenna fixed point position, multiple rapid adjustments are made during the docking process to ensure docking accuracy and improve docking efficiency.

[0047] As a specific embodiment of the present utility model, the docked plant 1 is fixed; the active docking plant 2 moves and docks with the docked plant 1 under the action of the docking device.

[0048] like Figure 2 As shown, the docked factory building 1 includes a roof 11, a first supporting side beam 12, a second supporting side beam 13 and a moving wheel 14; the first supporting side beam 12 and the second supporting side beam 13 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the roof 11; the moving wheel 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first supporting side beam 12 and the second supporting side beam 13; the structure of the active docking factory building 2 is the same as that of the docked factory building 1.

[0049] As a specific embodiment of the utility model, the A1 positioning antenna and the A2 positioning antenna of the docking device are arranged on the roof 11 of the docked plant 1; the B1 positioning antenna and the B2 positioning antenna of the docking device are arranged on the roof 11 of the active docking plant 2. The A1 positioning antenna and the A2 positioning antenna are used to locate the docked plant 1, and the B1 positioning antenna and the B2 positioning antenna are used to locate the active docking plant 2.

[0050] The beneficial effects achieved by this application are as follows:

The docking is more accurate and reliable than observing the relative positions of the docked plant and the active docking plant with the naked eye, and the docking accuracy of the docked plant and the active docking plant is higher, thereby improving the docking efficiency.
