Abstract

To provide a shovel capable of improving safety by causing the shovel to detect an appropriate object to be detected depending on the content of work and the work site.SOLUTION: A shovel support system comprises a shovel 100, a support device 300 for supporting the shovel, and a management device 200 for managing the shovel. The shovel has a lower traveling body 1, an upper revolving body 3 rotatably mounted on the lower traveling body, a bucket 6 as an end attachment, and a controller 30 that sets an object selected in the support device as a detection target.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Claims

1. A shovel that communicates with a support device, wherein the shovel is Lower running body and An upper slewing body is mounted on the lower traveling body so as to be rotatable, End attachment and, It has a control unit and The control unit, The support device has a detection unit that detects the presence of an obstacle at the work site using object image data, which is an image of an obstacle to be avoided, captured by the support device, and surrounding image data, which shows an image of the work site captured by the shovel's imaging device. The aforementioned obstacle is The object image data is selected by the support device, The control unit, Based on the object image data received from the support device, the obstacle is set, The detection unit is The support device acquires a determination model for each selected obstacle and detects the presence of the obstacle. The aforementioned obstacle-specific determination model is selected by inputting the work content or work area of ​​the excavator into the support device.

2. The excavator according to claim 1, wherein the determination model for each obstacle is updated using the object image data captured by the support device.

3. The control unit, The excavator according to claim 1 or 2, which outputs a notification indicating that the obstacle is located within the predetermined range when the obstacle is detected within the predetermined range.

4. A support system for an excavator, comprising an excavator, a support device that communicates with the excavator, and a management device that communicates with the excavator, The aforementioned shovel is, Lower running body and An upper slewing body is mounted on the lower traveling body so as to be rotatable, End attachment and, It has a control unit and The control unit, The support device has a detection unit that detects the presence of an obstacle at the work site using object image data, which is an image of an obstacle to be avoided, captured by the support device, and surrounding image data, which shows an image of the work site captured by the shovel's imaging device. The aforementioned obstacle is The object image data is selected by the support device, The control unit, Based on the object image data received from the support device, the obstacle is set, The detection unit is The support device acquires a determination model for each selected obstacle and detects the presence of the obstacle. The aforementioned obstacle-specific determination model is selected by inputting the work content or work area of ​​the excavator into the support device, and is an excavator support system.

5. The aforementioned support device is The object image data of the obstacle is transmitted to the shovel. The control unit, The excavator support system according to claim 4, wherein the obstacle is set based on the object image data received from the support device.

6. The aforementioned control device is A storage unit that stores a judgment model for each obstacle, which is associated with the work content of the excavator or the work area. The excavator support system according to claim 4 or 5, further comprising: a model output unit that, when the work content or work area of ​​the excavator is input, outputs a determination model for each obstacle corresponding to the input work content or work area to the excavator.

7. The aforementioned control device is The shovel support system according to any one of claims 4 to 6, further comprising a learning unit that learns a determination model for each obstacle using surrounding image data of the shovel captured by an imaging device of the shovel and the target image data captured by the support device.
