The rotation recognition structure 120 has a cylindrical shape and is connected to the end surface of the rotation recognition structure 110 having a larger diameter. The centerlines of the select recognition structure rotation recognition structure 120 are on the same straight line. In this embodiment, the rotation recognition structure 110 and the rotation recognition structure 120 rotate together, and the connection mode of the rotation recognition structure 110 and the rotation recognition structure 120 adopts a fixed connection mode, so long as the rotation of the rotation recognition structure 110 and the rotation recognition structure 120 can be realized, the invention is not limited thereto. The rotary recognition structure 120 is divided into a plurality of sorting bins 322, and each sorting bin 322 is provided with a bin gate on the outer surface of the rotary recognition structure 120, so that express items in the sorting bin 322 can be sorted out from the bin gate. The first spherical compound eye imagers 321 are installed on the arc surfaces opposite to the bin gates of the sorting bin 322, as shown in fig. 3, each bin gate is internally provided with a spherical compound eye imager, each spherical compound eye imager is composed of a plurality of hexagonal imagers, and each hexagonal imager is a quick high-definition imaging photographing device. The spherical compound eye imagers are used for shooting images of express delivery.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the rotation of the rotation identification structure 110 and the rotation identification structure 120 are not synchronized, i.e. the rotation identification structure 110 and the rotation identification structure 120 may rotate separately, and the rotational speeds may be different. At this time, the rotation recognition structure 120 and the rotation recognition structure 110 are movably connected.
In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the radial cross-sectional shapes of the plurality of sorting bins 322 are the same, i.e., the size of each sorting bin 322 is equal, and the rotation recognition structure 120 is equally divided.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the plurality of sorting bins 322 may be unequal in size, i.e., the rotary identification structure 120 is unequal, and the space of the sorting bins 322 is sized to facilitate sorting of different sized couriers.
In this embodiment, the automatic express sorting device further includes a driving module, configured to drive the rotation of the rotation recognition structure 110 and the rotation recognition structure 120. The driving module comprises a rotating shaft, a coupling and a motor, wherein the rotating shaft is arranged on the central lines of the rotation identification structure 110 and the rotation identification structure 120 and is connected with the rotation identification structure 110 and the rotation identification structure 120, and the coupling is connected with the rotating shaft and the motor.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the rotation of the rotation recognition structure 110 and the rotation recognition structure 120 may be driven by a driving method commonly used in the art, which is not limited in this disclosure.
In the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, a plurality of second spherical compound eye imagers 211 are mounted on the inner surface of the rotary recognition structure 110. The number of the second spherical compound eye imagers 211 is, for example, 4, and is equally spaced on the same circumference of the inner surface of the rotary recognition structure 110, so that images of express items located within the rotary recognition structure 110 can be photographed from a plurality of angles.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the number of the second spherical compound eye imagers 211 may be changed according to need, and the second spherical compound eye imagers 211 may be omitted when they are not needed, which is not limited to this disclosure.
In some embodiments of the invention, a main conveyor belt is used to connect to the rotational identification device to deliver the speed into the rotational identification device. The express delivery can also be selected to be directly put into the rotation recognition device, and the disclosure is not limited to this.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, the express delivery image is captured by the second spherical compound eye imager 211 in the rotation recognition structure in the rotation recognition device. If the road area value of the express delivery cannot be identified according to the express delivery image shot by the second spherical compound eye imager 211. For example, the location of the individual express delivery face sheet is relatively specific, and the road area value of the express delivery cannot be identified from the express delivery image shot by the second spherical compound eye imager 211. The express delivery slides into different sorting bins 322 along with the rotation of the rotation recognition device, the express delivery is subjected to rolling recognition operation by utilizing the eccentricity, an image of the express delivery is shot by a first spherical compound eye imager 321 in the sorting bin 322, and the road area value of the express delivery is obtained according to the road area value of the express delivery on the image. Express delivery in sorting bin 322 is sorted to different road areas according to the set rotation angle or RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) identification equipment or electromagnetic induction wire cutting angle and other modes, and the disclosure is not limited to this. When the second spherical compound eye imager 211 cannot identify the road area value of the express delivery, the rotation identifying device can further identify the road area value of the express delivery through the first spherical compound eye imager 321. The express sorting device 100 in the embodiment of the invention can efficiently and accurately sort the express according to the road area value.
Fig. 4 schematically illustrates a flow chart of a control method of an express sorting device in an embodiment of the invention. The control method comprises the following steps.
In step S401, receiving an image of an express delivery in a sorting bin 322 of the rotation identification structure 120; wherein, the image is obtained by first spherical compound eye imager 321, and first spherical compound eye imager 321 is installed in the letter sorting storehouse 322 of rotatory recognition architecture 120. Specifically, the first spherical compound eye imager 321 shoots images of the express delivery in the sorting bin 322, and only few images containing the express delivery face list are the images with clear road zone values in the images of the express delivery face list, so that the road zone values are identified.
In step S402, a road area value to which the express delivery on the image belongs is identified. The step of specifically identifying the way region value will be described in detail later.
In step S403, the door of the sorting bin 322 is opened when the rotation recognition structure 120 is rotated to a position corresponding to the road zone value according to the road zone value control.
In this embodiment, after the road area value of the express delivery in the sorting bin 322 is identified, the rotation of the rotation identification structure 120 is controlled according to the road area value. Referring to fig. 3, when the sorting bin 322 where the express delivery is located rotates, a conveyor belt 310 is disposed below the rotation recognition structure 120, where the conveyor belt 310 includes a plurality of sub-conveyor belts 311, and the plurality of sub-conveyor belts 311 correspond to different road zone values. When the sorting bin 322 rotates to the position of the sub-conveyor 311 corresponding to the road zone value of the express delivery, the bin gate of the sorting bin 322 is opened. The sub-conveyor 311 conveys the sorted express.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the conveyor 310 may be omitted, for example, a plurality of barrels may be disposed under the rotary identification structure 120, where each barrel corresponds to a road area value, and sorted express items are collected according to the road areas. The disclosure is not limited thereto.
Fig. 5 schematically shows a flow chart for identifying an image add-on value in an embodiment of the invention. Identifying the way region value on the image includes the following steps.
In step S501, an express delivery face sheet image on an image is acquired based on an edge detection method. Specifically, the segmentation method based on edge detection can directly segment the express delivery face list on the image, and the express delivery face list is imaged and then grayed, so that preparation is made for subsequent edge detection. The edge detection method adopts the Canny technology to ensure good edge intensity estimation, and can resist noise to a certain extent and keep weak edges.
In step S502, characters on the express delivery side sheet image are identified through the dilation-erosion process according to the express delivery side sheet image. Specifically, the similar image areas are connected by the expansion process, and isolated and fine color patches are removed by the etching process. All characters on the express bill are communicated, so that preparation is made for selecting a road area through contour recognition.
In step S503, a road area character is obtained by contour recognition from the character. Specifically, binarization processing is used in the step to strengthen sharp edges and further remove useless information in the image.
In step S504, vector calculation is performed on the road region characters to obtain a character array. Specifically, the express bill image is copied again, and vector calculation is performed. Then, the horizontal mapping and the vertical mapping pixels are used for carrying out pixel level segmentation on the road area character, when the number of pixels with the pixel value larger than 0 in each column exceeds 5, the column is considered to be digital, whether the pixels in each column are larger than 5 is recorded, an array is generated, and the value of the array is the character array identified by final segmentation.
In step S505, the numeric value of the character array is obtained as the road area value of the express delivery by calculation.
By the method for identifying the road area value on the route, the road area value on the express delivery image shot by the first spherical compound eye imager 321 can be effectively identified, and the express delivery can be effectively and accurately sorted according to the road area value.
