Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of intelligent warehousing, specifically to a cargo sorting station based on AI-dynamically adjusted lighting. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, smart warehousing often requires sorting goods and arranging them in a specific order for categorized storage. Sorting is a preparatory step for efficient and supportive delivery, and it's an inevitable extension for different delivery companies to compete and improve their economic efficiency. However, with the continuous development of technology, most warehouse sorting equipment has shifted from traditional manual sorting to automated sorting. Currently, warehouse sorting equipment uses cameras to photograph goods for image acquisition, and the acquired images are then processed by a computer system for image and text recognition. Based on the identified information, the system matches the corresponding storage path. However, this image acquisition method has poor resistance to environmental interference, resulting in a low recognition success rate.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to propose further solutions to address the aforementioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0026] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0027] Please see Figure 1-6 As shown in the figure, this utility model application discloses a goods sorting table based on AI-dynamically adjusted lighting, comprising a sorting table 1, wherein:

[0028] The upper surface of the sorting table 1 has an axial groove 11. The top of the groove 11 is covered by a support plate 110 for placing goods. The support plate 110 is transparent, and one side of the support plate 110 is an output port, which is connected to the conveyor line for conveying goods.

[0029] A camera 12 is mounted in the groove 11 along the center of its bottom;

[0030] The inner wall of the groove 11 is provided with annular light sources 112 along the circumferential direction. Multiple annular light sources 112 are provided and are evenly distributed along the longitudinal direction of the groove 11.

[0031] Furthermore, the cross-section of the groove 11 is designed in a trumpet shape, wider at the top and narrower at the bottom.

[0032] Furthermore, the upper surface of the support plate 110 is also provided with a feeding structure, which includes a push plate 3 for moving the goods on the support plate 110 and a driving device 3. The driving device 3 can drive the push plate 3 to make linear reciprocating motion along the upper surface of the support plate 110, moving closer to or away from the output port.

[0033] Furthermore, the drive device 3 includes a transmission belt 21 rotatably connected to both sides of the support plate 110 and a drive motor 22 for driving the transmission belt 21 to rotate. A drive wheel 23 and a secondary drive wheel 24 are rotatably connected to both sides of the support plate 110. The transmission belt 21 is tensioned on the drive wheel 23 and the secondary drive wheel 24. Two adjacent drive wheels 23 are connected by a synchronous shaft 28. A first pulley 29 is fixedly connected to the synchronous shaft 28. The drive motor 22 is mounted on the sorting table 1, and a second pulley 25 is fixedly connected to its output shaft. The first pulley 29 and the second pulley 25 are connected by a synchronous belt 26. The two sides of the actuating plate 3 are fixedly connected to the transmission belts 21 on both sides of the support plate 110.

[0034] Additionally, such as Figure 6 As shown, linear guide rails 27 are fixedly connected to both sides of the sorting table 1. Flange blocks 271 extending above the linear guide rails 27 are provided on both sides of the actuating plate 3. The bottom of the flange block 271 is formed with a sliding groove that is slidably connected to the linear guide rails 27.

[0035] Furthermore, the outer surface of the actuating plate 3 is covered with a silicone cushioning layer 31. Accordingly, the silicone cushioning layer 31 effectively prevents the actuating plate 3 from making hard contact with the goods and damaging them.

[0036] Furthermore, the support plate 110 is made of glass.

[0037] Furthermore, the annular light source 112 is an LED light strip.

[0038] Furthermore, multiple grooves 11 are provided, and the multiple grooves 11 are arranged at equal distances along the length of the sorting table 1, and a partition plate 13 is provided between two adjacent grooves 11. Accordingly, multiple goods can be imaged simultaneously, and mutual interference between the light sources of the multiple grooves 11 can be avoided.

[0039] Furthermore, to facilitate the later maintenance of the annular light source 112 and extend its service life, a plate-shaped lampshade 111 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove 11, and the lampshade 111 covers the outer surface of the annular light source 112.

[0040] Working principle: The goods are placed on the support plate 110. The control system can control some or all of the ring light sources 112 to turn on according to the command, so as to adjust the ambient light intensity and provide the optimal ambient light for the camera 12 to capture, thereby improving the image clarity. Driven by the drive device 3, the toggle plate 3 pushes the captured goods towards the output port, so that the goods are output from the output port and enter the conveyor line, and are output to the designated position along the conveyor line.

[0041] In summary, the AI-based dynamic lighting adjustment sorting table of this application features a recess 11 with a camera 12 mounted at the center of the bottom. Goods requiring image capture are placed on a transparent carrier plate at the top of the recess 11, allowing for bottom-level image capture. Multiple equally spaced, longitudinally distributed annular light sources 112 are positioned on the inner wall of the recess 11. Each annular light source 112 can be individually switched on and off. By controlling the number of annular light sources 112 activated, the intensity of ambient light can be adjusted to improve the clarity of the goods image. This significantly enhances the system's resistance to environmental interference.
