The invention discloses a grab ship unloader man-
machine anti-
collision system and method based on the UWB technology, and the
system comprises a UWB positioning unit which comprises UWB labels, a UWB
base station and a UWB positioning
server, the UWB labels are installed at the top of a cabin cleaning
machine and safety helmets worn by personnel in a cabin, and send
nanosecond pulse signals to the surroundings in real time; the PLC
control unit comprises a PLC module and a switch, the PLC module receives real-time positioning data, transmitted by the UWB positioning unit, of the cabin cleaning machinery and personnel and then monitors the
collision risk of the cabin cleaning machinery and personnel in the grab bucket descending process in real time, and the mechanism
control unit comprises a lifting opening and closing frequency converter and a lifting opening and closing motor. And after receiving the lifting opening and closing control instruction transmitted by the PLC
control unit, the lifting opening and closing frequency converter controls the operation action of the lifting opening and closing motor. The
system eliminates the risk hidden danger that the grab bucket hits and touches the cabin cleaning
machine, and improves the safety and reliability of
bulk cargo wharf operation. According to the UWB technology-based man-machine anti-
collision system of the grab ship unloader, the market core competitiveness of grab ship unloader products is greatly improved.
