Referring to fig. 9, the path planning system 250 is adapted to the probe supporting device 230 as described above, and is mainly used for controlling the movement of one or more of the first translation assembly 231, the first rotation assembly 232, the telescopic arm 233, the second rotation assembly 234, and the probe carrying assembly 235, so as to move the probe 220 to the target position. In one embodiment, the path planning system 250 controls the movement of one or more of the first translation assembly 231, the first rotation assembly 232, the telescopic arm 233, the second rotation assembly 234, and the detector carriage assembly 235 by outputting control signals, such as trajectory control dots, to the drive system 236. The path planning system 250 may include a displacement amount solving module 251, a path planning module 252, and an anti-collision detection module 253.
The target position of the probe 220 may be represented by coordinates (m _ X, m _ Y, m _ Z) in an X-Y-Z coordinate system as shown in FIG. 1, wherein m _ X represents the position of the center point of the probe 220 in the X-axis direction, m _ Y represents the position of the center point of the probe 220 in the Y-axis direction, and m _ Z represents the position of the center point of the probe 220 in the Z-axis direction, the first translation module 231, the first rotation module 232, the telescopic arm 233, the second rotation module 234, and the probe carrier 235 may be represented by (Y, α 0, a, β 0, X), wherein Y is the distance between the center axis of the first rotation module 232 and the front end face 231a, α 0 is the distance between the center axis of the telescopic arm 233 and the center axis of the telescopic arm β a, determined by the angle between the rotation axis of the first rotation module 232 and the Y direction, the center axis of the telescopic arm 233 and the probe carrier module 235 is the length of the center axis of the telescopic arm 233 from the center axis of the telescopic arm 233 to the imaging plane of the telescopic arm 220, and the probe carrier module 233 is determined by the angle between the center axis of the telescopic arm 233 and the center axis β 0 a.
From the positional relationships between the components shown in fig. 3-7, the target position (m _ X, m _ Y, m _ Z) of the detector 220 and the displacement amounts of the first translation component 231, the first rotation component 232, the telescopic arm 233, the second rotation component 234 and the detector carrier 235 can be obtained as a function of, for example, the geometric relationships:
Figure GDA0002300503800000131
wherein GantryToIso is a Y-axis direction distance from a reference zero point (i.e., the front end surface 231a) of the first translating element 231 to the isocenter, as shown in fig. 3; arm1ToIso is the Z-axis distance from the central axis of the first rotating assembly 232 to the isocenter plane, as shown in fig. 3; the ElbowToPanelcenter is the distance in the Y-axis direction from the center axis of the second rotating assembly 234 to the center point of the detector 220, as shown in FIG. 3; the Elbow2PanelTop is the distance from the central axis of the second rotating assembly 234 to the detecting surface of the detector 220 in the Z-axis direction; l is the distance of the isocenter plane from the center of the radiation source, preferably 100cm, as shown in FIG. 7. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the above functional relationship (1) can also be calculated by a homogeneous coordinate matrix.
As can be seen from the functional relation (1), the position m _ X of the detector 220 in the X-axis direction is uniquely determined by the displacement amount of the detector carrying assembly 235, and the positions m _ Y, m _ Z of the detector 220 in the Y-axis and Z-axis directions are collectively determined by the displacement amounts of the three assemblies, i.e., the first translating assembly 231, the first rotating assembly 232, and the telescopic arm 233. Thus, for a target position (m _ X, m _ Y, m _ Z) of the detector 220, the inverse solution of the functional relation 1 results in multiple solutions.
In order to obtain the optimal solution of the equation, the displacement solving module 251 may perform automatic optimization selection on the calculation result according to the following boundary conditions:
(1) the telescopic arm 233 cannot collide with the housing hole 120. If the length of the retractable arm 233 in the receiving hole is long, and the movement displacement of the first rotating member 232 is large, the retractable arm 233 may collide with the receiving hole 120;
(2) the geometric stiffness of the probe support 230 is maximized to reduce positioning errors caused by gravitational elastic deformation. The geometric rigidity of the probe support 230 is mainly determined by the extension length of the telescopic arm 233, and the shorter the extension length of the telescopic arm 233 is, the greater the geometric rigidity of the probe support 230 is.
Fig. 10 is a basic flowchart of a method for solving the inverse of the displacement of each moving element according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 10, the inverse solution method 3 for the displacement of each motion element includes:
step 31: the target location of the detector 220 is received.
Step 32: detecting whether the target position is in the field range, if not, jumping to the step 33; if so, step 34 is performed.
Step 33: and (6) finishing the optimization.
Step 34: a predetermined displacement amount a is set. To maximize the geometric stiffness of the probe support 230, a is taken to be the minimum of its range of motion when this step is first performed.
And step 35, solving (y, α 0) according to the relation (for example, formula 1) between the coordinates of the detector 220 and the displacement of the first translation assembly 231, the first rotation assembly 232, the telescopic arm 233, the second rotation assembly 234 and the detector bearing assembly 235 so as to obtain the displacement of the first translation assembly 231 and the first rotation assembly 232.
And step 36, detecting the motion range of the analysis result (a, y, α 0), if the analysis result (a, y, α 0) is not in the motion range, indicating that the analysis result is not reasonable, executing step 38 to carry out next solving, and if the analysis result (a, y, α 0) is in the motion range, indicating that the analysis result is reasonable, executing step 37 to carry out subsequent detection.
And step 37, performing anti-collision detection on the analysis result (a, y, α 0), executing step 38 to perform the next solution if the analysis result fails to pass the detection, and executing step 39 if the analysis result passes the detection and indicates that the analysis result is reasonable, wherein the anti-collision detection can be performed by using an anti-collision detection model, which can be implemented by calculating the relative position between the overall shape of the probe supporting device 230 and the inner wall of the accommodating hole 120 according to the solved displacement (y, a, x, α 0, β 0) to detect whether collision occurs.
Step 38: the movement displacement of the telescopic arm 233 is increased by Δ S, and the process returns to step 34. At this time, a is a + Δ S, where a on the left side of the equal sign is the displacement amount of the telescopic arm 233 of the next cycle, and a on the right side of the equal sign is the displacement amount of the telescopic arm 233 of the current cycle.
And step 39, outputting the optimal analysis results (y, a, X, α 0 and β 0), wherein X is m _ X and β 0 is α 0 according to the formula 1.
The path planning module 252 may plan the motion path of the probe supporting device 230 according to the displacement solved by the displacement solving module 251. The path planning module 252 is configured to implement synchronous coordinated movement of the first translation assembly 231, the first rotation assembly 232, the telescopic arm 233, the second rotation assembly 234, and the probe carrier assembly 235 to move the probe 220 to the target position.
In the actual positioning process of the probe 220, if the moving positions and speeds of the first translating assembly 231, the first rotating assembly 232 and the telescopic arm 233 are not well coordinated, the telescopic arm 233 may collide with the receiving hole 120 during the positioning process, and the probe supporting device 230 may be damaged. In order to avoid the collision risk during the positioning process, the positioning process of the conventional probe 220 generally adopts a step-by-step motion control manner, that is, the telescopic arm 233 is firstly translated out of the receiving hole 120, and then the motions of the first rotating assembly 232, the telescopic arm 233, the second rotating assembly 234 and the probe carrying assembly 235 are controlled. Although the step-by-step control method can avoid the collision risk, the positioning and recovery time of the detector 220 is too long, and the working efficiency is affected.
In order to solve the above problem, the path planning module 252 may automatically optimize the movement paths of the first translation component 231, the first rotation component 232, the telescopic arm 233, the second rotation component 234, and the detector bearing component 235, and control the track points in the positioning process in real time, so as to achieve synchronous linkage positioning of the first translation component 231, the first rotation component 232, the telescopic arm 233, the second rotation component 234, and the detector bearing component 235, reduce the positioning and recovery time of the detector 220, and simultaneously avoid collision between the detector supporting device 230 and the accommodating hole 120.
In one embodiment, the path planning module 252 may include the following steps when performing path planning:

b. Will control the node PiSubstituting the corresponding position information into the anti-collision detection model, detecting whether the probe supporting device 230 collides with the accommodating hole 120, if so, returning to step a, and if not, controlling the node PiThe indicated path is output as the optimal path.
In another embodiment, the path planning module 252 may include the following steps when performing path planning:

b. To control the trace points during the positioning of the detector 220 in real time, the trace planning module 252 uses a continuous trace control mode (PT mode) for each trace pointThe motion path of the subintervals is subjected to trajectory planning, namely, one or more trajectory control small points Cp are generated in each subintervaliAs shown in fig. 11. Preferably, one trajectory control dot Cp may be generated every 20ms within a subintervali. Each trajectory controlling a small point CpiThe contained information is: the time t when one or more of the first translation assembly 231, the first rotation assembly 232, the telescopic arm 233, the second rotation assembly 234 and the detector bearing assembly 235 reaches the small point of the trajectory controliPreset target position Pos of small point of trajectory controliPreset velocity Vel of the trajectory control small pointiPreset acceleration Acc of small locus control pointi
c. The path of the sonde 220 during positioning is detected for collision avoidance. For a planning motion path, controlling all tracks on the path to be small points CpiThe corresponding position information is substituted into the anti-collision detection model to detect whether the prober support 230 collides with the receiving hole 120. Controlling the small point Cp if all tracks on the pathiIf the corresponding position information can be detected by collision prevention, the detector supporting device 230 is considered to have no collision risk in the process of multi-component linkage positioning, and the current path is output as the optimal path; and if the anti-collision detection result fails, the current planned path is considered to have collision risk and is not the optimal path, and the step a is returned to optimize and distribute the motion path of the detector supporting device 230 again.
