It is to be understood that the embodiments described are only a few embodiments of the present application and not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

As described in the background section, currently, when a weld joint is positioned, a single-line structured light is used for irradiating the weld joint to position the weld joint, but the welding joint can only be positioned in real time by adopting the single-line structured light positioning mode, if the weld joint has a complex structure and a sudden change exists in the weld joint track, the next welding track cannot be predicted, so that the weld joint has a large deviation in positioning, and the welding precision is low.
In view of the above, the present application provides a weld positioning method, please refer to fig. 1 and fig. 2, in which fig. 1 is a flowchart of a weld positioning method according to an embodiment of the present application, and fig. 2 is a schematic view of a weld positioning image according to the embodiment, the method includes:
step S101: acquiring a weld positioning image comprising a first structured light line, a second structured light line and a third structured light line, wherein the first structured light line, the second structured light line and the third structured light line are parallel to each other in pairs;
specifically, the structured light lines irradiate the surface of the weld joint, and form sudden changes occur at the intersection points of the structured light lines and the weld joint, referring to fig. 2, in the welding advancing direction, the first structured light line 13, the second structured light line 14, and the third structured light line 15 are arranged in order from front to back.

Specifically, assume that the first coordinate in the previous frame of the seam location image is A (x)1,y1) The second coordinate is B (x)2,y2) The third coordinate is C (x)3,y3). If the abrupt change of the welding seam track is not the actual change of the welding seam track but the error caused by the random interference of the workpiece surface or the environment, the first coordinate A in the welding seam positioning image1Is (x)1+a1,y1+b1) And as welding progresses, a second coordinate B in the welding seam positioning image1Where errors occur, the changed coordinate, second coordinate B, is also obtained1Is (x)2+a2,y2+b2) Since the abrupt change of the weld trace is not the actual change of the weld trace, a does not occur1=a2And b is1=b2When the discontinuity point is an untrusted point, the third coordinate C is used1In the subsequent occurrence of a mutation to (x)3+a3,y3+b3) When, C1The coordinate of the weld position cannot be determined, but the third coordinate C (x) in the previous frame of weld positioning image is determined3,y3) And determining the coordinate of the position of the welding seam to improve the accuracy of the positioning of the welding seam, wherein the third coordinate in the previous frame of welding seam positioning image is a credible coordinate.
