[0002] Filter presses are used in coal processing to dehydrate and recover fine coal sludge, accelerating the processing of tail coal. Existing filter presses require manual inspection during operation for damaged filter bags, as well as for any sludge that has fallen from the filter plates in the filtrate collection tank during discharge. These inspections must also be cleaned promptly. However, since filter presses generate noise, dust, and other pollutants during operation, manual inspections pose a risk to workers. Furthermore, traditional manual inspections are highly subjective and subject to limitations in monitoring methods, data recording, and analysis. These inspections are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient, with limited real-time performance. Utility Model Content

[0022] In order to better understand the purpose, structure and function of the present invention, the present invention is clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] like Figure 1-Figure 5 The filter press robot inspection auxiliary blanking device shown in FIG. includes: a guide rail 1, a robot body 2 and a camera 3. Figure 5 As shown, the guide rail 1 is mounted on the filter press 4, specifically at the bottom of the filter press 4 frame, above the filter plate, without obstructing the passageway for personnel. The slider of the guide rail 1 is connected to the upper portion of the robot body 2, which is in turn connected to the camera 3. The guide rail 1 and slider can be constructed using existing linear slide rail structures and driven by a drive motor. When the drive motor is in operation, it drives the slider in linear motion along the guide rail 1, thereby driving the robot body 2 and camera 3 in linear motion above the filter plate. The camera 3 captures real-time images of the filter bags, enabling comprehensive inspection without blind spots, thus enabling the robot to replace human operators. Based on the images captured by the camera 3, the camera 3 issues instructions to the cleaning unit 6 to remove any residual coal slime from the filter bags. To facilitate installation, a connecting plate 9 is provided above the robot body 2 and camera 3. The upper portion of the connecting plate 9 is bolted to the slider.

[0024] The upper part of the robot body 2 is provided with an interface 5, and the lower part is connected to a cleaning piece 6 through a rotating mechanism. The cleaning piece 6 is used to clean the residue on the filter bag. The robot body 2 can be an executive robot that can be purchased on the market, which has a rotating function and can make the cleaning piece 6 contact the filter bag. In this embodiment, the lower part of the robot body 2 is improved and a rotating mechanism is provided. Specifically, the rotating mechanism includes a rotating motor 7 provided at the lower part of the robot body 2 and a steering gear 8 connected to the rotating motor 7. The output shaft of the steering gear 8 is arranged horizontally and connected to the cleaning piece 6. After the rotating function on the robot body 2 drives the cleaning piece 6 to contact the filter bag, the rotating motor 7 works and drives the cleaning piece 6 to swing back and forth inside or outside the filter bag through the steering gear 8, thereby knocking and shoveling the filter bag to clean the residue. Furthermore, the cleaning piece 6 includes a cleaning shovel located at the lower part of the robot body 2.

[0025] A controller is provided within the robot body 2, electrically connected to the guide rail 1, the robot body 2, and the camera 3. In this embodiment, the controller is a PLC controller; it is electrically connected to the drive motor of the guide rail 1, the interface 5 on the robot body 2, and the rotation mechanism, namely, the rotary motor 7. It can issue commands to the drive motor and rotary motor 7 to activate them, thereby driving the robot body 2 and the camera to automatically move along the guide rail 1 and driving the cleaning shovel to automatically clean residue from the filter bag.

[0026] Specifically, the controller is connected to the communication module, the early warning module, and the data processing module respectively; the communication module is used to connect to the external terminal, and can remotely monitor and control the operation of the robot body 2; the early warning module is used to connect to the alarm and issue an alarm to alert the staff when a fault occurs. The data processing module pre-processes and compares the data collected by the camera 3, and decides whether to issue an instruction to the rotating motor 7 based on its processing structure. Its principle is as follows: it contains an image pre-processing unit, a feature extraction algorithm, a classifier, a decision unit and a feedback learning mechanism. Among them, the image pre-processing unit: performs pre-processing operations such as denoising, contrast enhancement, and grayscale conversion on the collected images to improve the accuracy of subsequent recognition; the feature extraction algorithm: uses deep learning technology, such as convolutional neural network (CNN), to extract features of filter bag damage and coal slime residue from the pre-processed image; the classifier: classifies the extracted features based on the trained model to identify whether the filter bag is damaged and whether coal slime remains, and whether automatic knocking and cleaning of the coal slime residue is required; the decision unit: based on the output of the classifier, the decision unit decides whether to trigger the cleaning shovel to clean or replace the filter bag; the feedback learning mechanism: can continuously learn and optimize the recognition algorithm based on the operation results to improve the recognition accuracy.

[0027] The filter press robot inspection and blanking device provided by the utility model can realize automatic inspection and cleaning, effectively solving the problems of traditional manual inspection such as time-consuming and labor-intensive, poor real-time performance, etc., greatly improving the operating efficiency of the filter press 4, realizing safe, efficient and precise production, reducing labor costs, and reducing the safety risks of operators.
