Detailed Description
In order to explain technical contents, structural features, and objects and effects of the present invention in detail, the following detailed description is given with reference to the accompanying drawings in conjunction with the embodiments.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the invention discloses a robot gripper tracking and gripping control system, which comprises a robot gripper 2 and an industrial personal computer 4 which are mutually communicated and connected through a switch 6, wherein an encoder 5 is arranged on a conveyor belt 1 and used for measuring the speed of the conveyor belt 1 and recording the position of a material on the conveyor belt 1, the robot gripper 2 is communicated and connected with the encoder 5, and the robot gripper 2 is arranged at the downstream position of the conveyor belt 1 and used for gripping the material conveyed from the conveyor belt 1.
The control method corresponding to the control system comprises the following steps:
the industrial personal computer 4 transmits initial position information and grabbing information of the material to be grabbed on the upstream of the conveyor belt 1 to the robot gripper 2, and stores the initial position information and the grabbing information in a queue to be grabbed of the robot gripper 2, wherein the grabbing information in the embodiment comprises the profile, the posture, the material information and the like of the material;
the robot gripper 2 reads the coding signals of the encoder 5 of the conveyor belt 1 in real time and monitors the real-time position of the material according to the initial position information;
when the robot gripper 2 is in an idle state (including a waiting state and a discharging completion state), whether the information of the materials to be gripped in the queue is detected, if yes, a following path is calculated by adopting a moving target tracking algorithm according to the current position of the materials arranged at the forefront in the queue to be gripped and the current position of the robot gripper 2, and the robot gripper 2 follows an encoder 5 of the conveyor belt 1 in real time in an electronic cam mode so that the target materials are gripped within the shortest distance of entering a gripping area.
Therefore, when the robot gripper 2 is in an idle state, as long as the information that the material to be gripped in the queue of the robot gripper 2 is detected, no matter whether the material enters the gripping area of the robot gripper 2 or not, the robot gripper 2 calculates a following path according to the current position of the material and the current position of the robot gripper 2, follows the encoder 5 of the conveyor belt 1 in real time in an electronic cam manner, and starts to perform following work on the material, so that the target material is gripped within the shortest distance of the target material entering the gripping area. As shown in fig. 2, the material is moved out of the photographing area and located at position Z1, if the robot gripper is idle at this time, the material is immediately tracked, and after passing through position Z2, the material can be caught and gripped at position Z3 within a short distance after passing through the upstream limit J1 of the gripping area. Compare in the tradition only just control the mode that robot tongs 2 started to move from the waiting position after the material got into and snatchs the region, can effectively improve and snatch efficiency, in addition, because robot tongs 2 can get into and snatch regional advancing action at the material, when the target material apart from snatching regional than far away, robot tongs 2 can follow by lower speed and acceleration to promote robot's life. It should be noted that the moving object tracking algorithm in the present embodiment is common knowledge of those skilled in the art, and therefore, the details thereof are not described herein again.
In order to facilitate the industrial personal computer 4 to acquire initial position information and grabbing information of a material to be grabbed, the control system further comprises an image acquisition device 3 arranged in a shooting area arranged at the upper stream of the conveying belt 1, the image acquisition device 3 is in communication connection with the industrial personal computer 4 through a switch 6, the robot gripper triggers the image acquisition device 3 to acquire a material picture passing through the position of the image acquisition device 3, the industrial personal computer 4 processes the material picture acquired by the image acquisition device 3 based on a deep learning model, and the initial position information and the grabbing information of each material in the material picture are acquired. Specifically, the image capturing device 3 in this embodiment is a camera, and first, the coordinate systems of the camera, the robot gripper 2, and the conveyor belt 1 are calibrated to obtain the transformation relationship among the coordinate systems of the camera, the robot gripper 2, and the conveyor belt 1. During operation, the robot gripper 2 sends a trigger signal to the industrial personal computer 4 according to a fixed time interval or a fixed distance interval of the movement of the conveyor belt 1 through the encoder 5 of the conveyor belt 1, the industrial personal computer 4 calls a camera photographing function to control the camera to photograph, the robot gripper 2 simultaneously records the state of the encoder 5 of the conveyor belt 1 at the current moment, and then the real-time position of the material in the picture obtained by photographing at the time on the conveyor belt 1 can be obtained according to the real-time change of the state of the encoder 5. After the industrial personal computer 4 obtains the picture shot by the camera, the picture is processed in a template matching or deep learning mode, material information including initial position information and grabbing information of each material on the picture in a camera coordinate system is obtained, and the material information is sent to the robot gripper 2. After the robot gripper 2 obtains the current material information, the initial position information of the material in the camera coordinate system is converted into the initial position information in the conveyor belt 1 coordinate system according to the conversion relation between the camera coordinate system and the conveyor belt 1 coordinate system, and then the converted initial position information and the corresponding gripping information are sequentially stored in a queue to be gripped of the robot gripper 2.
Because two adjacent pictures may have an overlapping area when taking a picture, the same material may appear in different pictures, resulting in repeated grabbing. Therefore, the control system in this embodiment further includes a comparison module, before storing the initial position information and the grasping information of any material in the queue to be grasped, the initial position information corresponding to the current material is compared with the initial position information corresponding to all the materials stored in the queue to be grasped through the comparison module, if the distance between the initial position information and the grasping information is smaller than a certain preset value, it is indicated that the current material is repeatedly photographed, the material information corresponding to the current material is discarded, and if the distance between the initial position information and the grasping information is larger than a certain preset value, the material information corresponding to the material is added to the queue to be grasped. For the materials in the queue to be grabbed, the robot gripper 2 updates the current positions of all the materials in the queue to be grabbed in real time according to the actual state of the encoder 5 of the current conveyor belt 1 and the state of the encoder 5 of the conveyor belt 1 acquired at the photographing moment in the queue to be grabbed, so that the materials to be grabbed are monitored in real time.
As shown in fig. 3 and 4, in the process of performing the gripping action, the robot gripper 2 will go through three motion stages, namely, a tracking region, a synchronization region and a material placing region, in the tracking region, the robot gripper 2 catches up the target material from the reverse direction or the same direction, when catching up the target material, the robot gripper keeps synchronous with the speed of the target material, enters the synchronization region, in the synchronization region, the robot gripper 2 probes down to grip the target material, then enters the material placing region, and in the material placing region, the robot gripper will go through three stages, namely, acceleration, uniform speed and deceleration. When the robot gripper 2 detects that the material information exists in the queue to be gripped at the waiting position or the placing position and is ready for next tracking and gripping movement, the robot gripper 2 can adjust the speed and the acceleration of the robot gripper 2 in the tracking area according to the difference between the current position of the target material and the distance between the current positions of the robot gripper 2, if the target material is now relatively far from the robot gripper 2, as shown in fig. 3, the robot gripper 2 starts to track back slowly at a relatively slow speed and acceleration, at this stage, the robot gripper 2 undergoes four processes of reverse acceleration, uniform speed and deceleration and then homodromous acceleration, when the robot gripper 2 accelerates homodromous acceleration, the speed is the same as that of the conveyor belt 1 at the set maximum acceleration, and at the moment, the robot gripper runs right above the target material, and keeping moving synchronously with the target material, and then the robot gripper 2 downwards probes to grab and place the material into the material frame. If the target material is relatively close to the robot gripper 2, as shown in fig. 4, the robot gripper 2 starts fast tracking backwards with a relatively fast speed and acceleration. Of course, the robotic gripper 2 may also track quickly in the same direction if the current target material is located downstream of the robotic gripper 2.
In addition, as shown in fig. 2, before the robot gripper 2 detects in the waiting position or the emptying position that a material to be gripped in the queue to be gripped is ready for the next follow-up gripping movement, if this material is located at position point Z4 on the conveyor belt 1, the current position of the robot gripper 2 has been exceeded, and if further de-gripping is selected, the robot gripper 2 may hit the downstream limit J2 of the gripping area during the synchronous follow-up, resulting in an alarm stop. In this regard, in the prior art, as shown in fig. 5, a pick-up limit J3 'is generally set before the position of the downstream limit J2', when the real-time position of the material in the queue to be grabbed is judged before the next tracking grabbing movement, the grabbing of the material is abandoned as long as the real-time position of the material exceeds the pick-up limit J3 ', and only the tracking grabbing of the material which does not exceed the pick-up limit J3' is carried out. However, the position of the pickup limit J3' is not easy to set. If the pick limit J3 ' is too close to the downstream limit, the robot gripper 2 ' is likely to hit the downstream limit Z2 ' causing the alarm to stop, and if the pick limit J3 ' is too far from the downstream limit, when there is more material to be gripped, much material will have passed the pick limit J3 ' causing the gripping to be abandoned, affecting the efficiency of the apparatus. Therefore, this method must be repeated to actually test to confirm the optimal pickup boundary J3' position. In addition, the optimum pick-up limit J3 ' of the method is influenced by the speed of the conveyor belt 1 ', the slower the speed of the conveyor belt 1 ', the closer the optimum pick-up limit J3 ' is to the downstream limit, the faster the speed of the conveyor belt 1, the further away the optimum pick-up limit J3 ' is from the downstream limit, so that the pick-up limit J3 ' needs to be manually readjusted when the speed of the conveyor belt 1 ' of the production line changes. To solve the technical problem, preferably, according to the control system in this embodiment, before the robot gripper 2 detects the material to be gripped in the queue to be gripped at the waiting position or the emptying position and prepare for the next tracking gripping movement, the movement paths of the tracking area and the synchronization area are directly calculated according to the current position of the robot gripper 2 and the current position of the material to be gripped, and the position of the robot gripper 2 at the end of the synchronization area is obtained, if the position does not exceed the downstream limit J2 of the gripping area, the gripping is performed this time, and if the position exceeds or approaches the downstream limit J2, if the material is located at the position point Z5, the gripping is abandoned this time. Since the velocity of the robot gripper 2 follows the velocity of the conveyor belt 1 in synchronism in the tracking area and the synchronization area, the calculated position of the robot gripper 2 at the end of the synchronization area is accurate and does not change due to changes in the velocity of the conveyor belt 1. As shown in the figure, the position 1 is the real-time position of the target material before the robot gripper 2 performs the current gripping motion, the position 2 is the predicted position of the material and the robot gripper 2 after the gripping is finished, and the gripping work is abandoned because the predicted position is close to the downstream limit. In addition, to ensure safety, the downstream limit may be advanced by a safe amount as appropriate. Therefore, when the speed of the conveyor belt 1 changes, the control system can automatically judge whether the robot gripper 2 should perform the tracking gripping at this time in advance without colliding with the downstream limit, and the operation flow of a user is simplified.
The invention also discloses a robot gripper tracking and gripping control system, which comprises one or more processors and a memory; and one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the programs comprising instructions for performing the robotic gripper tracking gripper control method as described above.
In addition, the invention also discloses a computer readable storage medium which comprises a computer program for testing, wherein the computer program can be executed by a processor to complete the robot gripper tracking and gripping control method.
The above disclosure is only for the purpose of illustrating the preferred embodiments of the present invention and is not to be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention, therefore, the present invention is not limited by the appended claims.
