Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of coal storage management, and in particular to a rail-mounted laser coal inventory device. BACKGROUND

[0002] In a large open-pit coal mine or a coal storage site, workers need to monitor the stacking of coal in real time to improve inventory management efficiency. Therefore, workers often need to detect the coal inventory to realize real-time monitoring of the stacking of coal.

[0003] Traditional coal inventory management relies on manual measurement, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also difficult to ensure accuracy, especially in large-scale coal storage sites. This method obviously cannot meet the needs of modern enterprise management. In recent years, automated detection equipment, including but not limited to ultrasonic sensors, radar sensors, and laser scanners, can improve the speed and accuracy of detection to some extent, but also has its own limitations.

[0004] Ultrasonic sensors are widely used for preliminary measurement due to their low cost, but their resolution is low and they are easily affected by environmental noise, resulting in large measurement errors. Although radar sensors have high penetration and anti-interference performance, their accuracy is still limited in complex coal accumulation environments. Laser scanners have gradually become the mainstream choice due to their high accuracy and fast response, but most laser scanners are handheld or vehicle-mounted, which has poor deployment flexibility and high maintenance costs. In addition, most existing automatic detection systems lack effective data analysis tools, which reduces the utilization rate of raw data and affects the quality of final decisions.

[0005] Although various automated detection methods on the market have improved the efficiency of coal inventory management to some extent, there are still some obvious shortcomings, mainly including high equipment cost, complex operation, and weak data processing capacity. Especially for large-area and high-density coal stacking areas, how to achieve comprehensive coverage and accurate measurement is still a major challenge. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION

[0006] In order to achieve comprehensive coverage and accurate measurement of large-area and high-density coal stacking areas, the present application provides a rail-mounted laser coal inventory device.
