Detailed implementation manners

[0022] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this application, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of this application.

[0023] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, a wood truck parking guidance device based on 3D vision scanning includes a base 1 and a gantry 11 arranged on the base 1. A 3D vision camera 12 is installed on the gantry 11. On one side of the 3D vision camera 12, there is a guiding light 2 for guiding the direction in which the vehicle needs to deviate. On the upper end of the base 1, there is a control box 3. On one side of the control box 3, there is a three - color indicator light 31 for displaying the device status and sending out an alarm signal. On the upper end of the control box 3, there is a voice broadcaster 32. On the upper end of the base 1, there is also a parking indicator light 4, and two groups of parking indicator lights 4 are symmetrically arranged. On the upper end of the base 1, there are ground spotlights 5, and multiple groups of ground spotlights 5 are provided.

[0024] In this embodiment, when the vehicle loaded with wood approaches the parking area, the 3D vision camera 12 starts to scan the position and size of the vehicle in real time and transmits the scanned data to the control box 3. The system analyzes the data to determine whether the vehicle needs to adjust its position. If the vehicle needs to be offset, the control box 3 displays the offset direction through the guiding lights 2 to guide the driver to make adjustments. The voice broadcaster 32 on the control box 3 broadcasts parking instructions and adjustment suggestions to assist the driver in operation. The control box 3 displays the device status through the three-color indicator lights 31. For example, green indicates normal, yellow indicates warning, and red indicates an emergency. When the vehicle docks at the designated position, the control box 3 controls the parking indicator light 4 to turn on, indicating to the driver that the vehicle has docked accurately. The ground floodlights 5 provide sufficient lighting to prevent personnel from straying into the device operation area and ensure operation safety. The overall steps are safer than manually guiding the vehicle to dock and can effectively avoid accidents.

[0025] As Figure 2 shown, a rearview mirror 41 is installed at the upper end of the base 1. There are two groups of rearview mirrors 41 symmetrically arranged and respectively corresponding to the two groups of parking indicator lights 4.

[0026] In this embodiment, through the two groups of rearview mirrors 41, it is possible to better observe whether the parking indicator lights 4 are on, thus facilitating the driver's observation better.

[0027] As Figure 1 shown, an emergency stop button 33 is provided on one side of the control box 3.

[0028] In this embodiment, if the system detects an abnormal situation or operation risk, the device will issue an alarm through the voice broadcaster 32. In an emergency, the operator can press the emergency stop button 33 to immediately stop all relevant operations.

[0029] As Figures 2 to 3 shown, a first adjustment mechanism 6 for adjusting the height of the ground floodlights 5 and a second adjustment mechanism 7 for adjusting the angle of the ground floodlights 5 are provided on the base 1;

[0030] The first adjustment mechanism 6 includes a support frame 61 provided at the upper end of the base 1. Two groups of fixed rods 63 are fixedly provided on the support frame 61. A motor 62 is installed at the top of the support frame 61. The output shaft end of the motor 62 is connected to a lead screw 621. A slider 64 is provided on one side of the support frame 61. The slider 64 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 621 and slidably connected to the fixed rod 63. One side of the slider 64 is rotatably connected to a cross bar 65. Multiple ground floodlights 5 are installed outside the cross bar 65 and arranged at equal intervals along the outside of the cross bar 65.

[0031] In this embodiment, when the vehicle reaches a certain height, the motor 62 is started, and the motor 62 drives the lead screw 621 to rotate, so that the slider 64 slides along the outside of the fixed rod 63. The slider 64 drives the cross bar 65 to move, so that the height of the ground floodlight 5 outside the cross bar 65 is adjusted, preventing it from colliding with the vehicle and causing damage.

[0032] As Figures 4 to 5 shown, a guide post 66 is provided at the upper end of the base 1. A guide groove 661 is formed on one side of the guide post 66. A guide block 67 is slidably connected inside the guide groove 661. One end of the cross bar 65 is rotatably connected to the guide block 67. A ball 671 is movably provided at one end of the guide block 67, and the ball 671 slides inside the guide groove 661.

[0033] In this embodiment, when the slider 64 drives the cross bar 65 to move up and down, the guide block 67 slides inside the guide groove 661. The guide block 67 and the guide groove 661 play a guiding role for the cross bar 65, making its movement more stable. At the same time, the friction between the guide block 67 and the guide groove 661 is reduced by the ball 671, making its movement smoother.

[0034] As Figure 6 shown, the second adjustment mechanism 7 includes a mounting plate 71 fixedly installed on one side of the slider 64. An electric push rod 72 is provided at the upper end of the mounting plate 71. A rack 73 is provided at the telescopic end of the electric push rod 72. A gear 74 is sleeved outside the cross bar 65, and the rack 73 meshes with the gear 74.

[0035] In this embodiment, after the height of the ground floodlight 5 is adjusted, the electric push rod 72 can be used to push the rack 73 to move. The rack 73 meshes and drives the gear 74 to rotate, thereby driving the cross bar 65 to rotate, so as to adjust the angle of the ground floodlight 5, and the light can be better irradiated on the equipment working area, further ensuring operation safety.
