Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of data acquisition equipment technology, specifically relating to a timber measurement data recognition device. Background Technology
[0002] Timber is an important material in production and daily life, and is widely used in many fields such as home building materials, construction, decoration, mold manufacturing, etc. Due to the large demand for timber and the limited domestic production capacity, and in order to meet the production needs for different properties of timber, my country imports a large amount of timber through ports every year. In order to ensure the smooth and accurate flow of timber, the port needs to sort the timber that arrives. This process usually requires manual transcription of the measurement data of the timber end face, which then needs to be entered into a computer to form an archive for data transfer in the subsequent timber circulation process.
[0003] This method of manually transcribing and recording the measurement data of the timber end faces has many drawbacks. First, there are many heavy transportation equipment working at the sorting site, and the mixing of people and equipment poses a significant safety risk. Second, manual transcription is prone to errors and can easily lead to data errors. Third, the data is difficult to trace back, so it requires a very high degree of diligence and meticulousness from the staff.
[0004] To address the aforementioned technical issues, and considering the various advanced identification devices currently available on the market, using data recognition equipment to identify timber measurement data is considered a preferred approach to replace manual labor with mechanical methods. Such equipment can effectively avoid the aforementioned technical problems. However, in practical applications, we have found that conventional data recognition equipment is usually fixed in position, making it difficult to adapt to special working conditions such as changes in timber yards and work areas. Furthermore, timber yards are typically hardened surfaces with no overhead obstructions. During hot weather, the data recognition equipment is exposed to intense sunlight, causing the battery inside the casing to overheat. This poses a serious challenge to the battery's operating temperature safety. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a portable timber measurement data recognition device with good heat dissipation.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, the top of the compartment door is hinged to the rear end plate via a horizontally set pivot, the area of the compartment door is larger than the area of the power replacement port to achieve complete coverage, and the two sides of the compartment door are locked to the rear end plate via ball-operated latches.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment, a pusher is provided on the inner side of the compartment door to extend into the power replacement port. When the compartment door is closed, the pusher abuts against the battery to prevent the battery socket and plug from becoming loose.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment, a two-axis gimbal is connected to the top of the housing. The two-axis gimbal can perform horizontal rotation and pitch movements. The camera is mounted on one end of the pitch axis of the two-axis gimbal, and an illumination device is connected to the other end of the pitch axis.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment, the top plate of the housing has an assembly hole with a waterproof edge that bends vertically upwards around the assembly hole.

[0024] The specific implementation scheme of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] like Figures 1-5 The timber measurement data recognition device shown includes an industrial computer 1 and a camera 2. The camera 2 is used to capture images of the timber end faces, and the industrial computer 1 is used to extract measurement data from the images. The camera 2 is communicatively connected to the industrial computer 1. It also includes a housing 3, with a rear end opening and a detachable rear end plate 4. The rear end plate 4 has a power replacement port 5 and a door 6 that can close the power replacement port 5. Two parallel and opposite support plates 7 are vertically connected to the bottom surface inside the housing 3. Support plate 7 extends axially along power replacement port 5. The tops of the two support plates 7 are connected to each other by a partition plate 8. The ends of the two support plates 7 away from the rear end plate 4 are connected by a limiting plate 9. The partition plate 8 and the inner top surface of the housing 3 form an assembly cavity 10 for installing the industrial control computer 1. The back sides of the two support plates 7 and the adjacent inner side wall of the housing 3 form a cable routing cavity 11. The two support plates 7, the limiting plate 9, and the partition plate 8 together form a battery compartment 12. A battery 13 is installed in the battery compartment 12. The battery 13 can be replaced through the power replacement port 5. The battery 13 is connected to the industrial control computer 1 and the camera 2 to provide power to the industrial control computer 1 and the camera 2. A plug 14 is connected to the limiting plate 9. A socket 15 is fixedly connected to the end of the battery 13 facing the limiting plate 9. When the battery 13 is inserted into the battery compartment 12, the plug 14 and the socket 15 are connected to achieve conductivity.
[0026] In this embodiment, both support plates 7 are in an "n" shape to improve the support force on the partition plate 8. A large number of heat dissipation holes 16 are opened on the two vertical plates 701 of each support plate 7 to increase the airflow inside and outside the battery compartment 12 and reduce the weight of the whole machine. Multiple fish scale holes 17 arranged in a matrix are opened on the side walls of the housing 3 opposite to the two support plates 7 to improve the airflow inside and outside the housing 3, so that the hot gas inside can be quickly discharged. The fish scale holes 17 open downwards to prevent rainwater from entering the housing 3. A large number of support plates 18 are arranged vertically and discretely on the facing surfaces of the two support plates 7. The support plates 18 extend from the rear end plate 4 toward the limiting plate 9. Heat dissipation fins 19 corresponding to the support plates 18 are provided on the outer walls of both sides of the battery 13. The heat dissipation fins 19 are attached to the upper surface of the corresponding support plate 18. The support plates 18 can not only limit the position of the battery 13 to ensure that the height of the battery 13 after being inserted into the battery compartment 12 meets the requirements for the docking of the plug 14 and the socket 15, but also limit the lateral position of the battery 13 to ensure accurate docking of the plug 14 and the socket 15. They can also allow the heat of the battery 13 to be conducted to the support plates 18 through the heat dissipation fins 19 by releasing the heat dissipation fins 19, and further to the support plate 7 and the housing 3 for rapid heat dissipation.
[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, as an improvement to the above technical solution, the support piece 18 in this embodiment includes a limiting section 18a and a guide section 18b connected to each other on one side edge near the battery. The guide section 18b is close to the rear end plate 4. The limiting section 18a is parallel to the moving direction of the battery 13 insertion plug 14. The guide section 18b extends towards the rear end plate 4 and gradually tilts away from the battery 13. Both the guide section 18b and the limiting section 18a are provided with downwardly bent vertical flanges 20 to eliminate scratches on the outer wall of the battery 13. After the battery 13 is inserted into the battery compartment 12, it is first guided by the guide section 18b to adjust its lateral position, and then enters the limiting section 18a. At this time, the limiting section 18a of the support piece 18 slides against the outer wall of the battery 13, which restricts the lateral position of the battery 13 and allows the heat of the outer wall of the battery 13 to be directly conducted to the support piece 18.
[0028] like Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the top of the door 6 is hinged to the rear end plate 4 via a horizontally arranged pivot 21, so that the door 6 can be tilted outward and upward to open the power replacement port. The weight of the door 6 can keep the door 6 in the closed state, preventing the door 6 from opening by itself. The area of the door 6 is larger than the area of the power replacement port 5 to completely cover the power replacement port 5. The two sides of the door 6 are locked to the rear end plate 4 by ball-operated latches 22.
[0029] In practical applications, the compartment door 6 can also be vertically pivoted to one side of the rear end plate 4, allowing it to be tilted outwards to the left or right to open the power replacement port 5. The compartment door 6 can also be locked using other known types of locks.
[0030] In order to improve the stability of the battery 13 during the use of the equipment and thus ensure the stability of the equipment operation, this embodiment further provides a pusher 23 that can extend into the power replacement port 5 on the inner side of the door 6. When the door 6 is closed, the pusher 23 abuts against the battery 13 to prevent the socket 15 and plug 14 of the battery 13 from becoming loose.
[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, a two-axis gimbal 24 is connected to the top of the housing 3. The two-axis gimbal 24 can realize horizontal rotation and pitch movements. The two-axis gimbal 24 is a commonly used type of gimbal, so its specific structure will not be described in detail in this application. The camera 2 is mounted on one end of the pitch axis 24a of the two-axis gimbal 24, and the other end of the pitch axis 24a is connected to a lighting device 25. The lighting device 25 is connected to and controlled by the industrial control computer 1. The lighting device 25 is used to enable the equipment to work in dim or dark environments.
[0032] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown in Figure 8, for ease of installation, the top plate of the housing 3 in this embodiment has a mounting hole 26. The mounting hole 26 has a waterproof edge 27 that is bent vertically upwards around its perimeter to prevent rainwater from entering the housing 3. The mounting hole 26 is covered by a top cover 28. The top plate edges on both sides of the top cover 28 are connected to outer baffles 29. Two grooves 30 are formed between the two outer baffles 29 and the top cover 28. U-shaped handles 31 are embedded in the two grooves 30, and the two ends of the handles 31 are inserted into the two grooves 30. The handle 31 is located above the rear end plate 4 in the middle. Symmetrical elongated holes 32 are provided at both ends of the handle 31. Positioning pins 33, which mate with the elongated holes 32, are connected to both sides of the top cover 28. The positioning pins 33 are located directly above the center of gravity of the wood measuring data recognition device. Both ends of the handle 31 are fitted onto the corresponding positioning pins 33 through the elongated holes 32. The elongated holes 32 extend in the opposite direction along the length of the handle 31 to near the end of the handle 31. When the handle 31 is pulled towards the rear end plate 4, it can swing upwards to a vertical position. Two outer baffles 29 are used to protect the handle from impact, preventing it from bending and becoming unusable.
[0033] The equipment mentioned in this embodiment refers to the timber measurement data recognition equipment described in this embodiment.
[0034] The working process of this utility model is as follows: the wood measurement data recognition device is raised to the working position, aligned with the end face of the wood stack to be sorted, and the measurement data of the moved wood end face is photographed, recognized, stored, and transmitted. Battery 13 provides power to other electrical components of the device. Battery 13 effectively reduces its operating temperature and improves the working safety of the wood measurement data recognition device through a rapid heat dissipation path via heat dissipation fins 19-support plate 18-support plate 7-heat dissipation holes 16-fish scale holes 17. The pull-out design of the handle 31 improves the portability of the device during transfer while maintaining a simple appearance during operation, reducing the risk of the device being hooked or bumped, and improving the safety of the device during operation.
[0035] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention, as well as some of the application examples, and are not intended to limit the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the inventive concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
