Detailed Description
In the following, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art will recognize, the described embodiments may be modified in various different ways, all without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Accordingly, the drawings and description are to be regarded as illustrative in nature, and not as restrictive.
The embodiment of the invention provides a vehicle movement method which can be applied to vehicles with different shapes, structures and movement postures. The embodiment of the invention also provides a motion control method of the vehicle, which can be applied to a control center. The control center and the vehicle may be communicatively coupled to send and receive signals to and from each other.
The vehicle of an embodiment of the present invention may be an AGV, which may include a travel assembly and a rotating assembly (e.g., a belt conveyor that may be referred to simply as a belt, which may rotate in a horizontal plane), and the shape of each AGV may be different. For example: in the side view shown in fig. 1-1, the belt trolley 1, as an AGV, comprises a trolley 11 that can run on the bottom, a support 12 in the middle and a belt 13 on the top; the cage car 2, as an AGV, includes a trolley 21 that can travel on the bottom and a basket 22 on the top.
In conventional anti-collision strategies, it is common to determine whether two AGVs will collide based on map points, i.e., location information, of the AGVs. In the plan view shown in fig. 1-2, according to the conventional anti-collision strategy, if the belt 13 of the belt car 1 rotates, it will collide with the cage car 2; however, in the side view shown in fig. 1-1, the belt 13 of the belt car 1 does not collide with the cage car 2 when rotating. Therefore, the traditional anti-collision strategy has larger error and is not suitable for special-shaped vehicles.
Fig. 2 shows a flowchart of a method of moving a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, the method may include:
step S201, determining a pre-application locking path according to a target task and a current position of a vehicle, wherein the pre-application locking path comprises a plurality of map points.
The target task may include, among other things, a task being performed by the vehicle. For example: the task of delivering goods to a location. Map points are points that exist in a map, for example: in a table with N rows and M columns, the table can be used as a map, each cell is a map point, and row and column information of the cell can represent the position of a vehicle on a horizontal plane. Wherein N and M are both positive integers.
The path planning module of the vehicle may plan a path for the vehicle based on the current location of the vehicle and the target task while the vehicle is stationary. The planned path includes all map points between the start point and the end point of the vehicle, arranged in the sequence of arrival of the vehicle. The locked path is a map point that the vehicle will pass through from the current position, and is a subset of the planned path. In the running and moving process of the vehicle, a pre-application locking path applied to a control center needs to be determined firstly.
And S202, determining the target motion state of the vehicle at each map point according to the target task.
The target motion state mainly comprises three states of static, linear movement and rotation (such as belt rotation). The target task may be broken down into subtasks of the vehicle at each map point, each subtask determining a target motion state of the vehicle at that map point. That is, the target motion state of the vehicle at a series of map points will be used to complete the target task. For example: the current position of the vehicle is map point a0, the direction of travel of the belt is forward, and the pre-application lock path of the vehicle may include map points a1, a2, and A3 (arrival order of the vehicle is a1, a2, and A3) in a target mission for delivering goods to a target object (map point a31 on the right side of A3). The vehicle is moved linearly in the target motion states of a1 and a2, and the belt is rotated to the right in the target motion state of A3, so that the conveying direction is toward a4 on the right side of A3, and the goods are delivered to the target objects.
And step S203, determining the occupied space information of the vehicle at each map point according to the motion state of each target.
The pre-occupancy space information may include horizontal pre-occupancy information and vertical pre-occupancy information. The horizontal pre-occupation information can be used for representing the space pre-occupation condition of the vehicle on the horizontal plane; the vertical pre-occupancy information may be used to characterize the space occupancy of the vehicle on a vertical surface. Furthermore, the pre-occupied space information can be used for representing the space pre-occupied situation of the vehicle in the three-dimensional coordinate system. Determining a horizontal pre-occupied area of the vehicle at a map point according to a horizontal projection (such as a top view) of the vehicle at the map point; the vertical pre-occupancy zone of the vehicle at a map point may be determined based on a vertical projection (e.g., side view) of the vehicle at the map point. Horizontal pre-occupation information, that is, size information of a horizontal pre-occupation area; the vertical pre-occupation information is size information of the vertical pre-occupation area.
The target motion state of the vehicle at a map point may affect the horizontal pre-occupancy zone of the vehicle at that map point. In step S202, the occupied space information of the vehicle at the map point may be determined according to the target motion state of the vehicle at the map point.
In one example, the vehicle is stationary at the target motion state at map point B1. And judging whether the head of the vehicle deflects. For example: in a horizontal coordinate system including the x-axis and the y-axis, when the vehicle head deviates from the x-axis or the y-axis by an angle of more than 10 degrees, the vehicle head is considered to be skewed.
When the head of the vehicle is not inclined, the horizontal projection of the vehicle at B1 can be used as a horizontal pre-occupied zone L1 of the vehicle at B1, as shown in FIG. 3-1. The size information d1, d2, d3 and d4 of the horizontal pre-occupancy zone L1 are the horizontal pre-occupancy information of the vehicle at B1.
When the vehicle head is inclined, the horizontal projection of the vehicle at B1 can be determined firstly, and then the geometric center point C1 of the horizontal projection and the line segment R1 from the geometric center point C1 to the farthest end D1 of the horizontal projection are determined. A circle of revolution L2 with a segment R1 as a radius, centered on the geometric center point C1, may be used as a horizontal pre-occupied zone for the vehicle at B1, as shown in fig. 3-2. The size information R1 (the length of R1) of the rotation circle L2 is the horizontal occupancy information of the vehicle at B1.
In one example, the target motion state of the vehicle at map point B2 is a straight line movement. At this time, the horizontal projection of the vehicle at B1 can be directly used as the horizontal pre-occupied zone of the vehicle at B2.
In one example, the target motion state of the vehicle at map point B3 is a rotation, such as a belt rotation. At this time, a rotation circle may be determined from a horizontal projection formed by the vehicle during rotation, and the rotation circle may be used as a horizontal pre-occupied area of the vehicle at B3. The center of the circle of rotation may be a geometric center point of a horizontal projection of a rotating component (such as a belt), and the radius of the circle of rotation may be a radius of rotation of the rotating component.
Step S204, sending an application signal for the pre-application of the locking path to a control center, wherein the application signal comprises the pre-occupied space information of the vehicle at each map point;
step S205, if an application agreement signal for the pre-application locking path sent by the control center is received, the target task is executed according to the pre-application locking path, and the application agreement signal is determined according to the pre-occupied space information of each map point.
The vehicle can send an application signal for a pre-application locking path to the control center, wherein the application signal comprises the pre-occupied space information of the vehicle at each map point of the pre-application locking path. After the control center agrees to the application of the vehicle to the pre-applied locking path, the pre-occupied space information of the vehicle at each map point of the pre-applied locking path is stored, and an agreement application signal is sent to the vehicle. After the vehicle receives an application agreement signal sent by the control center for the pre-application locking path, the pre-application locking path is determined as the locking path of the vehicle, and the target task is executed according to the locking path. When the vehicle leaves the locked path, a release signal may be sent to the control center. After receiving the release signal, the control center can update the pre-occupied space information of each map point of the locking path to be unoccupied.
The above method may be applied to a target vehicle and an obstacle vehicle, wherein a vehicle that is sending an application signal to the control center may be the target vehicle, and other vehicles monitored by the control center may be the obstacle vehicle.
Fig. 4 shows a flowchart of a motion control method of a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method can be applied to a control center. As shown in fig. 4, the method may include:
step S401, receiving an application signal of a target vehicle for a pre-application locking path, wherein the pre-application locking path comprises a plurality of map points, and the application signal comprises pre-occupied space information of the target vehicle at each map point;
step S402, judging whether the pre-application locking path is executable or not according to the pre-occupation space information of the target vehicle at the map point and the pre-occupation space information of at least one obstacle vehicle at the surrounding points of the map point; if yes, go to step S403;
and step S403, sending an agreement application signal for the pre-application locking path to the target vehicle.
In this embodiment, the surrounding points of a map point may be map points whose code distance from the map point conforms to a preset distance. For example: the pre-application lockout path of the target vehicle includes map points A1, A2, and A3. The map points a11, a12, a13, and a14, which have a code pitch with respect to the map point a1 within a predetermined range, are surrounding points of the map point a 1. The map points a21, a22, a23, and a24, which have a code pitch with respect to the map point a2 within a predetermined range, are surrounding points of the map point a 2. The map points a31, a32, a33, and a34, which have a code pitch with respect to the map point A3 within a predetermined range, are surrounding points of the map point A3. Wherein the code pitch may be a distance between center points of two map points.
In one embodiment, in step S402, when there is no conflict between each map point in the pre-application locking path, it is determined that the pre-application locking path is executable. The conflict may be a conflict between the occupied space information of the target vehicle at the map point and the occupied space information of the obstacle vehicle at the surrounding points of the map point. For example: at map point a1, there is no conflict between the pre-occupied space information of any obstacle vehicle at surrounding points a11, a12, a13, and a14 and the target space occupation information of the target vehicle at map point a 1; at map point a2, there is no conflict between the pre-occupied space information of any obstacle vehicle at surrounding points a21, a22, a23, and a24 and the target space occupation information of the target vehicle at map point a 2; at map point A3, there is no conflict between the pre-occupied space information of any obstacle vehicle at surrounding points a31, a32, a33, and a34 and the target space occupation information of the target vehicle at map point A3; at this time, it may be determined that the pre-application lock path of the target vehicle is executable.
An example of a method for determining whether there is a conflict between the occupied space information of the obstacle vehicle at the surrounding points and the target space occupation information of the target vehicle at the map points is given below with reference to fig. 5.
As shown in fig. 5, in this example, it may include:
step S501, judging whether the horizontal pre-occupation area of the target vehicle at the map point is intersected with the horizontal pre-occupation area of the obstacle vehicle at the surrounding point or not according to the horizontal pre-occupation information of the target vehicle at the map point and the horizontal pre-occupation information of the obstacle vehicle at the surrounding point; if the horizontal pre-occupied areas intersect, the step S502 is entered;
step S502, judging whether the vertical pre-occupation area of the target vehicle at the map point is intersected with the vertical pre-occupation area of the obstacle vehicle at the surrounding point or not according to the vertical pre-occupation information of the target vehicle at the map point and the vertical pre-occupation information of the obstacle vehicle at the surrounding point; if the vertical pre-occupied areas are not intersected, the step S503 is entered;
step S503, it is determined that there is no collision.
For example: as shown in fig. 6, the horizontal pre-occupancy area of the target vehicle at the map point a1 is L3, the horizontal pre-occupancy information is the size information d31, d32, d33, and d34 of L3, and the coordinates of the map point a1 are (x1, y 1). The horizontal pre-occupancy area of the obstacle vehicle at the surrounding point a11 is L4, the horizontal pre-occupancy information is size information d41, d42, d43, and d44 of L4, and the coordinates of the map point a11 are (x2, y 2). Where dx | -x 1-x2 |, dy | -y 1-y2 |. When dx ≦ d34+ d42 and dy ≦ d31+ d43, L3 does not intersect L4, i.e., the horizontal pre-occupancy of the target vehicle at map point A1 does not intersect the horizontal pre-occupancy of the obstacle vehicle at surrounding point A11. Using a similar approach, it may be determined whether the vertical pre-occupancy zone of the target vehicle at map point a1 intersects the vertical pre-occupancy zone of the obstacle vehicle at surrounding point a 11.
When two vertical pre-occupancy zones intersect, it can be predicted that the target vehicle may collide with the obstacle vehicle at the surrounding point a11 at the map point a 1. At this time, the control center may transmit a request rejection signal for a pre-request for a locking path to the target vehicle. After receiving the application rejection signal, the target vehicle may return to step S201 to re-determine the pre-application lock path.
When the two vertical pre-occupancy zones do not intersect, it can be predicted that the target vehicle may not collide with the obstacle vehicle at the surrounding point a11 at the map point a 1. Further, in a similar manner, a judgment is made as to whether there is a collision for each of the surrounding points a11, a12, a13, and a14 of the map point a 1.
The method of the embodiment of the invention describes the position of the vehicle through map points of the vehicle, describes the running posture of the vehicle according to the target motion state of the vehicle, and further determines the space occupation information of the vehicle in two directions of a horizontal plane and a vertical plane; the control center can determine future and occurred three-dimensional occupation information of each map point according to the application signals of the vehicles, and further judge whether the two vehicles collide. The method can be suitable for the AGVs of various code intervals and various types, can reduce errors, and enables the AGVs to run in a staggered mode to the maximum extent under the condition that the safety requirement is fully met.
