[0037] The host computer, the carriage box and the image acquisition mechanism in the photovoltaic module shipment management device provided by the embodiment can be one or more. The embodiment does not make specific limitation. For the convenience of explanation, the following takes the photovoltaic module shipment management device with one host computer, one carriage box and one image acquisition mechanism as an example for description.

[0038] Further referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 Fig. 1 is a first schematic view of the composition modules of the photovoltaic module shipment management device. The photovoltaic module shipment management device includes a host computer 11, a carriage box 12 and an image acquisition mechanism 13. The image acquisition mechanism includes an image acquisition device 131 and a pose adjustment assembly 132. One end of the pose adjustment assembly 132 is fixedly connected to the carriage box 12, and the other end of the pose adjustment assembly 132 is movably connected to the image acquisition device 131. Wherein,

[0039] The pose adjustment assembly 132 adjusts the image acquisition device 131 from a preset pose to a target pose according to a first instruction output by the host computer 11. The image acquisition device 131 is positioned in a shipment management area of the photovoltaic module 10 in the shipment process under the target pose. The image acquisition device 131 acquires shipment image information of the shipment management area according to a second instruction output by the host computer 11, and sends the shipment image information to the host computer 11. The host computer 11 outputs a shipment management result of the photovoltaic module 10 according to the shipment image information.

[0040] It should be noted that the pose adjusting assembly 132 can be used to adjust the pose of the image acquisition device 131 in space, and specifically can include adjusting the position of the image acquisition device 131 in space and the attitude of the image acquisition device 131 in space. The pose adjusting assembly 132 can be a mechanical arm type pose adjusting assembly or an electric push rod type pose adjusting assembly, etc. One end of the pose adjusting assembly 132 is fixedly connected to the compartment box body 12, and the fixed connection can be welding connection, bolt connection, rivet connection or pin connection, etc. The other end of the pose adjusting assembly 132 is movably connected to the image acquisition device 131. The image acquisition device 131 can be a high-sensitivity and high-resolution digital video camera, an industrial digital camera or a near-infrared camera, etc. The movable connection can be mechanical movable connection (such as through a rotary joint, a slide rail or an extension rod) or flexible connection (through a flexible cable or a flexible bracket). For example, in one implementable manner, the base of the pose adjusting assembly 132 is welded to a predetermined position of the top wall of the compartment box body 12, and the top of the pose adjusting assembly 132 is connected to the image acquisition device 131 through a rotary joint. The image acquisition device 131 can move freely in the space inside the compartment box body 12 through the pose adjusting assembly 132, and can also move freely in the space outside the compartment box body 12 through the pose adjusting assembly 132. It can be understood that the freely movable space range of the image acquisition device 131 is determined by the adjustable range of the pose adjusting assembly 132. In this way, during the delivery process of the photovoltaic module 10, the pose of the image acquisition device 131 in space is adjusted through the pose adjusting assembly 132, so that the finished product quality detection before the photovoltaic module 10 is transported, the transportation process detection when the photovoltaic module 10 is transported to the compartment box body 12 for delivery, and the detection of the photovoltaic module 10 after being loaded on the vehicle before delivery can be realized.

[0041] It should be noted that the pose adjusting assembly 132 and the image acquisition device 131 are respectively connected in communication with the upper computer 11, so that the upper computer 11 can respectively issue corresponding management instructions to the image acquisition device 131 and the pose adjusting assembly 132 in the process of performing the delivery management task, so as to realize the delivery management of the photovoltaic assembly 10. Specifically, the upper computer 11 can output a first instruction to the pose adjusting assembly 132. After receiving the first instruction, the pose adjusting assembly 132 adjusts the pose of the image acquisition device 131. It can be understood that the image acquisition device 131 cannot normally acquire the delivery image information of the delivery management area in the preset pose before the delivery management. Specifically, assuming that the delivery management task of the upper computer 11 needs to detect the outer packaging of the photovoltaic assembly 10, the image acquisition device 131 needs to move from the preset pose of the carriage box 12 to the first target pose at this time, so the horizontal coordinate, the vertical coordinate and the vertical coordinate of the image acquisition device 131 can be adjusted at this time. Assuming that the delivery management task of the upper computer 11 needs to monitor the carrying process of the photovoltaic assembly 10, the image acquisition device 131 needs to translate from the preset pose of the carriage box 12 to the second target pose at this time, so the horizontal coordinate and the vertical coordinate of the image acquisition device 131 can be adjusted at this time. After the pose adjusting assembly 132 adjusts the image acquisition device 131 from the preset pose to the target pose based on the first instruction, the image acquisition device 131 can position the photovoltaic assembly 10 in the delivery management area in the delivery process. The delivery management area can be, for example, a temporary storage area outside the delivery vehicle to which the carriage box 12 belongs, a movement area during the carrying of the photovoltaic assembly 10 to the carriage box 12, and a storage area in which the photovoltaic assembly 10 is placed in the carriage box 12. The photovoltaic assembly 10 can be one or more. Thus, the image acquisition device 131 can be flexibly positioned in the delivery management area of the photovoltaic assembly 10 in the delivery process under the action of the pose adjusting assembly.

[0042] It should be noted that the image acquisition device 132 can acquire the delivery image information in the delivery management area based on the first instruction output by the upper computer 11. It can be understood that the acquisition accuracy of the delivery image information is determined by the relative position between the image acquisition device 132 and the photovoltaic assembly 10 and the internal parameters of the image acquisition device 132. The acquisition beat of the delivery image information is determined based on the acquisition beat information carried by the second instruction. For example, the image acquisition device 132 can acquire five delivery images in the delivery management area within 10 seconds based on the second instruction. After completing the acquisition of the delivery image information, the image acquisition device 132 sends the delivery image information to the upper computer 11. Thus, the upper computer 11 can perform delivery management on the photovoltaic assembly 10 based on the delivery image information.

[0043] It should be noted that after receiving the delivery image information sent by the image acquisition device 132, the host computer 11 can perform delivery management on the photovoltaic module 10 based on the delivery image information collected under different delivery management, and output the delivery management result of the photovoltaic module 10. Specifically, the host computer 11 can output the packaging defect detection result of the photovoltaic module 10 based on image recognition technology and AI technology, and the photovoltaic module 10 with unqualified packaging will not be loaded onto the vehicle; the host computer 11 can also automatically extract photos in the loading process according to the delivery business requirements based on video frame extraction technology and AI technology, which can reduce labor costs; the host computer 11 can also warn the non-compliant behavior of the photovoltaic module 10 in the loading process based on the AI algorithm, for example, the prediction of the collision of the photovoltaic module 10 or the deviation of the motion trajectory; the host computer 11 can also detect the compliance of the rain cloth operation of the delivery vehicle to which the carriage box 12 belongs before delivery based on video monitoring technology and AI technology, which can avoid damage to the photovoltaic module 10 due to the non-compliant behavior of the delivery personnel during transportation.

[0044] The cooperation among the upper computer 11 of the shipment management device of the photovoltaic module, the carriage box 12 and the image acquisition mechanism 13, wherein the image acquisition mechanism 13 comprises an image acquisition device 131 and a pose adjustment assembly 132, one end of the pose adjustment assembly 132 is fixedly connected to the carriage box 12, and the other end of the pose adjustment assembly 132 is movably connected to the image acquisition device 131, in the process of shipment management of the photovoltaic module 10, the pose adjustment assembly 132 can adjust the image acquisition device 131 from the preset pose to the target pose under the action of the first instruction output by the upper computer 11, wherein the image acquisition device 131 is positioned in the shipment management area of the photovoltaic module 10 in the shipment process in the target pose, by setting the adjustment assembly, the pose adjustment of the image acquisition device 131 is automatically completed in the shipment process of the photovoltaic module 10, so that the image acquisition device 131 is always positioned in the shipment management area of the photovoltaic module in the shipment process, so that the image acquisition device 131 has the image acquisition capability of the corresponding shipment management area when the photovoltaic module 10 is located in different shipment management areas in the shipment process, and then the image acquisition device 131 acquires the shipment management image of the shipment management area under the action of the second instruction output by the upper computer 11, therefore, by setting the image acquisition device 131, the purpose of automatically acquiring the shipment management information in the corresponding shipment management area is achieved, finally the image acquisition device 131 sends the shipment image information to the upper computer 11, and the upper computer 11 outputs the shipment management result of the photovoltaic module 10 based on the shipment image information, therefore, by setting the image acquisition device 131 with adjustable pose, the image acquisition device 131 participates in the whole process management of the photovoltaic module 10 through the adjustment of the pose, automatically acquires the image information of different shipment management areas and outputs to the upper computer 11, so as to cooperate with the upper computer 11 to finally complete the whole process management of the photovoltaic module 10, rather than manually participating in the management process all the way, therefore, the limitations of human operation efficiency and subjective consciousness are overcome, the shipment management process of the photovoltaic module is complicated and the management accuracy is unstable, at the same time, the manual participation in the on-site operation also has the technical defects of safety hidden danger, therefore, the shipment management effect of the photovoltaic module is improved.

[0045] In one embodiment, the existing pose adjustment assembly 132 usually cooperates with the pose of the image acquisition device 131 to adjust together in the process of adjusting the image acquisition device 131, but in the process of shipment management of the photovoltaic module 10, in some shipment management scenes, the position and / or angle of the image acquisition device 131 can be adjusted to realize the shipment management, therefore, to improve the flexibility of the pose adjustment of the image acquisition device 131, the internal structure of the pose adjustment assembly 132 can be further designed, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 2For a second example diagram of the constituent modules of the shipment management device of the photovoltaic module, wherein the pose adjustment assembly 132 includes a position adjustment piece 1321 and an angle adjustment piece 1322, the position adjustment piece 1321 is fixed vertically to the top wall of the compartment box 12, and the angle adjustment piece 1322 is fixed between the position adjustment piece 1321 and the image acquisition device 131, wherein the fixing manner of the position adjustment piece 1321 and the angle adjustment piece 1322 can be the same or different, so that the pose adjustment assembly 132 can adjust the position or angle of the photovoltaic module 10 by adjusting the position adjustment piece 1321 or the angle adjustment piece 1322 alone, or can jointly adjust the position and angle of the photovoltaic module 10 by adjusting the position adjustment piece 1321 or the angle adjustment piece 1322 at the same time, to adapt to different acquisition requirements of the image acquisition device 131 for acquiring shipment image information in different shipment management scenarios.

[0046] It should be noted that the position adjustment piece 1321 moves the angle adjustment piece 1322 and the image acquisition device 131 together to adjust the image acquisition device 131 from a first position in a preset pose to a second position, for example, the first position can be , the second position can be , or it can be , so that the position adjustment piece 1321 can move the angle adjustment piece 1322 and the image acquisition device 131 to the preset position in space respectively; further, the angle adjustment piece 1322 rotates the image acquisition device 132 to adjust the image acquisition device 132 from a first angle in a preset pose to a second angle, wherein the target pose is that the image acquisition device 132 is located at the second position with the second angle, so that the angle adjustment piece 1322 can rotate the image acquisition device 132 to the preset angle, so that the image acquisition device 132 can be located at the second position with the second angle under the joint action of the position adjustment piece 1321 and the angle adjustment piece 1322.

[0047] In an implementable manner, assuming that the shipment management device of the photovoltaic module needs to be placed in the photovoltaic module corresponding to whether the tarpaulin is covered well, after receiving the first instruction output by the upper computer, the pose adjustment assembly first moves the image acquisition device to the center position of the top of the compartment box through the position adjustment piece, and then rotates the image acquisition device counterclockwise by 30° through the angle adjustment piece, so as to align with the shipment management area of the photovoltaic module, so that the image acquisition device can acquire the tarpaulin covering image in the shipment management area.

[0048] Thus, based on the setting of the position adjusting member 1321 and the angle adjusting member 1322, after the pose adjusting assembly 132 receives the first instruction output by the host computer 11, the position and angle of the image acquisition device 131 can be adjusted based on the first instruction in sequence, so that the image acquisition device 131 is in the target pose after the position and angle adjustment, and further meets the different collection requirements of the image acquisition device 131 for collecting the delivery image information in different delivery management scenarios, so that the adjustment flexibility of the pose adjustment of the image acquisition device 131 is improved.

[0049] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 3 , Figure 3 FIG. 3 is a third schematic view of a component module of the delivery management device for photovoltaic modules, the position adjusting member 1321 includes a first position adjusting unit 211 and a second position adjusting unit 212; the first position adjusting unit 211 adjusts the image acquisition device 131 from the first position in the preset pose to the intermediate position outside the compartment box body 12 in the first preset direction, wherein the first preset direction points to the opening side of the compartment box body; the second position adjusting unit 212 adjusts the image acquisition device 131 from the intermediate position to the second position in the second preset direction, wherein the first preset direction and the second preset direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0050] It should be noted that since the delivery management areas are different in different delivery management scenarios, the position adjustment requirements required by the pose adjustment assembly 1321 when facing different delivery management tasks of the host computer 11 are different, and then through the first position adjusting unit 211, the image acquisition device 131 can be translated from the first position along the first preset direction pointing to the opening side of the compartment box body 12 to the intermediate position outside the compartment box body 12. It can be understood that the first position adjusting unit 211 can realize the position adjustment of the image acquisition device 131 in the horizontal coordinate direction and the vertical coordinate direction; further, through the second position adjusting unit 212, the image acquisition device 131 can be adjusted from the intermediate position to the second position along the second preset direction, wherein the second position adjusting unit 212 can realize the position adjustment of the image acquisition device 131 in the vertical direction.

[0051] In an implementable manner, assuming that the delivery management device for photovoltaic modules needs to detect whether the outer packaging of the photovoltaic modules has defects, and the photovoltaic modules are placed beside the delivery vehicle to which the compartment box body belongs, after the pose adjustment assembly receives the first instruction output by the host computer, the image acquisition device is first extended out of the compartment box body through the first position adjusting unit of the position adjusting member, and then adjusted upward to the specified position through the second position adjusting unit of the position adjusting member, so as to be aligned with the delivery management area of the photovoltaic modules, so that the image acquisition device can collect the image of the photovoltaic modules in the delivery management area.

[0052] Thus, based on the settings of the first position adjusting unit 211 and the second position adjusting unit 212, after the pose adjusting assembly 132 receives the first instruction output by the upper computer 11, the image acquisition device 131 can be sequentially adjusted from the first position in the preset pose to the intermediate position outside the vehicle compartment box 12 along the first preset direction and from the intermediate position to the second position along the second preset direction based on the first instruction, so as to meet the purpose of the image acquisition device 131 collecting the delivery image information of the delivery management area outside the vehicle compartment box 12, so as to adapt to different collection requirements of the image acquisition device 131 collecting the delivery image information in different delivery management scenarios, and therefore, the adjustment flexibility of the pose adjustment of the image acquisition device 131 is further improved.
