[0030] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0031] On pavers, the information collection components are usually fixedly installed at the front of the machine. In some cases, they are easily blocked by the hopper or obstacles, causing the information collection to fail for a period of time. There is also a risk of collision.
[0032] Please refer to the attached document. Figures 1-5 The embodiments of this application provide an installation structure for an information collection component 12 on a paver. The installation structure includes an installation part, an information collection component 12, and a moving mechanism disposed on the device body 10 of the paver. The installation part is provided with a receiving cavity that can accommodate the information collection component 12. The information collection component 12 is telescopically connected to the installation part through the moving mechanism and can be housed in the receiving cavity and can also extend outward.
[0033] The moving mechanism adjusts the position of the information acquisition component 12 so that the information acquisition component 12 can extend out of the device body 10 or retract into the receiving cavity. At the same time, it adjusts the extension position of the information acquisition component 12, that is, the extension distance of the information acquisition component 12 outside the device body 10, so that the information acquisition component 12 can avoid obstacles or be in a suitable acquisition position.
[0034] Thus, a cavity is provided on the main body 10 of the paver to accommodate at least the information collection component 12, which is mounted via a moving mechanism. The moving mechanism allows the position of the information collection component 12 to be adjusted, enabling it to extend outside the main body 10 to collect environmental information. Simultaneously, it can adjust its position to avoid obstacles 20 or be obstructed, maximizing the effectiveness and continuity of information collection and preventing frequent interruptions. The information collection component 12 can also be housed within the cavity and concealed inside the paver. When not in use, it can be hidden inside the vehicle to avoid collisions or continuous exposure to adverse environmental effects. It can also retract into the vehicle to avoid obstacles 20 that are too close to the vehicle body to be avoided from the outside, such as obstacles very close to the main body 10, ensuring comprehensive obstacle avoidance and safety.
[0035] Specifically, the information acquisition component 12 can be a camera or a lidar, etc., preferably a camera. In this way, the effectiveness of information acquisition can be ensured to provide information for turning or obstacle avoidance, while also reducing costs.
[0036] The moving mechanism includes a guide rail, a slider, and a fixing rod 13. The guide rail is connected to the receiving cavity, for example, the guide rail is connected to the receiving cavity of the mounting part through a mounting plate. Preferably, the guide rail is arranged along the width direction of the device body 10, and the opening 101 of the receiving cavity is provided on the side wall of the device body 10. In this way, the information acquisition component 12 extends from the side of the device body 10 and collects information from the side of the vehicle body, avoiding obstruction of the view by components such as the discharge and hopper on the front side of the device body 10. The slider is slidably connected to the guide rail; the fixing rod 13 is connected to the slider and fixes the information acquisition component 12, so as to facilitate the extension or retraction of the information acquisition component 12.
[0037] The guide rail can limit the movement direction of the information acquisition component 12, ensuring smooth movement.
[0038] Furthermore, the moving mechanism also includes a power unit and a detector for detecting the displacement stroke of the slider. Both the power unit and the detector are electrically connected to a control unit on the main body 10 of the device, so that the control unit can adjust the extended position of the information acquisition unit 12. Thus, as... Figure 5 As shown, the control unit can determine whether it is necessary to avoid obstacles by comparing the position of the information acquisition component 12 and the position of the obstacle 20. When it is necessary to avoid obstacles, it can also drive the information acquisition component 12 to move, automatically adjust the position of the information acquisition component 12, and automatically avoid obstacles 20. The automatic obstacle avoidance setting is responsive and has a good obstacle avoidance effect.
[0039] The guide rail can be an optical track or a lead screw, and the power component can be a cylinder or a motor. The detector can be a limit switch or a displacement sensor, or other sensor capable of detecting displacement or distance.
[0040] Preferably, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the mounting part is formed on the control panel 11 of the main body 10 of the device, and the receiving cavity is formed in the bracket of the control panel 11. The opening 101 of the receiving cavity is located on the side wall of the control panel 11 in the width direction of the vehicle body. The space inside the bracket of the control panel 11 is effectively utilized, avoiding the occupation of other space on the vehicle body, and can also fully cover the moving mechanism to prevent the mechanism from being exposed to the sun and rain for a long time.
[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the moving mechanism is also provided with a protective cover 14, which is configured to cover the information acquisition component 12 and has a transparent or perforated window. This strengthens the protection of the information acquisition component 12 and reduces environmental interference and adverse effects; the window also ensures the effectiveness of information acquisition.
[0042] For example, the mobile mechanism is provided with a mounting base 15 for fixing the information acquisition component 12. A protective cover 14 is fixed to the mounting base 15. The protective cover 14 includes a top plate and a side plate and has a bottom inlet / outlet. The side plate surrounds the information acquisition component 12 and has a viewing window formed on it. The acquisition head of the information acquisition component 12 faces the viewing window. The side plate can be composed of three plates connected in sequence or it can be composed of arc-shaped plates. The top plate covers the side plate, and the bottom of the side plate forms a bottom inlet / outlet to facilitate the insertion of the information acquisition component 12 and part or all of the mounting base 15.
[0043] To increase the fine-tuning capability of the acquisition window of the information acquisition component 12, in some embodiments, the moving mechanism is provided with a mounting base 15 for fixing the information acquisition component 12, and the mounting base 15 is provided with a first rotating structure, which is configured to allow the information acquisition component 12 to pitch and rotate.
[0044] And / or, the mounting base 15 is provided with a second rotating structure, which is configured to allow the information acquisition component 12 to rotate horizontally around a vertically set axis, that is, to turn the acquisition head toward the device body 10 or to turn the acquisition head away from the device body 10, or to rotate left and right.
[0045] With this configuration, the information acquisition component 12 can tilt and rotate within a certain angle, as well as rotate horizontally to adjust the shooting angle and field of view.
[0046] Specifically, the first rotating structure includes a first rotating shaft, which is parallel to the fixed rod 13, i.e., horizontally arranged. The second rotating structure includes a second rotating shaft, which is vertically arranged, i.e., perpendicular to the ground. The information acquisition component 12 can be hinged to the adapter seat via the first rotating shaft, i.e., the information acquisition component 12 is connected to the first rotating shaft. The first rotating shaft is rotatably hinged to the adapter seat, and the adapter seat is hinged to the mounting base 15 of the fixed rod 13 via the second rotating shaft.
[0047] Furthermore, the first rotating structure may also include a first power source to drive the first rotating shaft to rotate, and the second rotating structure may also include a second power source to drive the second rotating shaft to rotate. Both the first and second power sources are electrically connected to the control unit, thus enabling automatic adjustment of the shooting angle of the information acquisition component 12.
[0048] Both the first and second power sources can be electric motors or cylinders. Preferably, both the second and second power sources are electric motors to simplify the structure and reduce the overall size.
[0049] Embodiments of this application also provide a paver, including a device body 10, on which an installation structure for the information collection component 12 of the paver described in any of the above embodiments is provided. Thus, the paver has the aforementioned structure and beneficial effects, which will not be elaborated further here.
