Description

Fire scene positioning and fire extinguishing method of warehouse intelligent fire extinguishing robot
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of fire fighting, and particularly relates to a fire scene positioning and fire extinguishing method for a warehouse intelligent fire extinguishing robot.
Background
In social life, hidden dangers of fire disasters exist everywhere, and big and small fire disasters frequently occur, and the fire disasters become one of the most important disasters which harm the life health of people and public property. Particularly, in the case of an indoor fire, the flame spread rate is very high, and if the fire cannot be extinguished in time at the initial stage of the fire, the fire is difficult to control after the fire becomes large, and the consequences are not easy to assume.
In the prior art, three methods are mainly used for realizing the positioning of a fire scene by a fire extinguishing robot:
1. the fire extinguishing robot is controlled to run to a fire scene to execute a fire extinguishing task in a manual site or remote control mode. For example, patent invention No. CN 111267128B provides a remote fire-fighting robot controller, by which a fire-fighting robot can be controlled to go to a fire scene. The method needs manual participation and has low intelligence degree.
2. And providing fire scene position information for the fire-extinguishing robot through the reconnaissance equipment. For example, the invention patent with the authorization number of CN 110101996B provides a fire-fighting robot cooperative positioning and autonomous operation method under a complex environment, and two scout robots provide fire scene position information for the fire-fighting robot; for example, the invention patent with the authorization number of CN 107137838B provides a fire rescue closed-loop control system and a fire rescue closed-loop control method based on a fire-fighting robot, and fire scene position information is provided for the fire-fighting robot in a high-altitude reconnaissance mode of an unmanned aerial vehicle. The method for providing fire scene position information for the fire-extinguishing robot through the reconnaissance equipment is complex in principle, high in technical difficulty, limited in application scene, large in damage to the unmanned aerial vehicle in a high-altitude reconnaissance mode of the unmanned aerial vehicle, dependent on GPS (global positioning system) precision in positioning precision, and invalid in the face of indoor fire situations.
3. The fire-extinguishing robot realizes the positioning of the fire-catching point through the binocular vision equipment of the fire-extinguishing robot body. For example, patent invention with the authorization number of CN 109331378B provides an fire-extinguishing robot based on image processing and an intelligent fire-extinguishing method, which uses a video acquisition module to acquire images of an area in front of the fire-extinguishing robot in real time and transmit position information of a fire point to the fire-extinguishing robot. This is suitable for situations where the general location of the fire is known and the particular fire is located. If the positioning method is adopted for fire scene positions in a large range, the positioning efficiency is low, the fire extinguishing time can be delayed, and the method has a complex principle and high technical difficulty.
