The offset between the center coordinate of the camera and the center coordinate of the corresponding furnace number marker can be obtained by utilizing the existing offset calculation method between the center coordinate of the camera and the center coordinate of the image object which is matched and shot.

Further, the above-mentioned preprocessing includes at least one of noise removal processing and image enhancement processing, and the edge extraction processing includes at least one of binarization processing and gradation value processing.
Further, the furnace number marker comprises a graduated scale, a color card or a digital furnace number signboard.
Further, the comparing the first image with each second image in a pre-stored image library to identify the furnace number of the locomotive includes:
determining second images with similarity exceeding a preset value with the first image according to comparison results of the first images and all second images in a pre-stored image library;
and taking the furnace number corresponding to the second image as the furnace number of the locomotive.
Further, the positioning information includes the furnace number and the offset, or the positioning information includes determining a relative position between the locomotive and the furnace number according to the furnace number and the offset.
The technical scheme of the control method is that the positioning information is sent to the central control module, and the central control module performs four-vehicle interlocking control.
The technical scheme of the positioning device comprises the following steps:
the system comprises an extraction module, a first storage module and a second storage module, wherein the extraction module is used for controlling a camera arranged on a locomotive to shoot images in real time and extracting a first image shot by the camera when a furnace number marker is in a camera shooting range;

Further, the apparatus further comprises: and the processing module is used for preprocessing the first image and performing edge extraction processing on the preprocessed first image before comparing the first image with each second image in a pre-stored image library.
The invention discloses a control device, which comprises a sending module and a positioning device; the sending module is used for sending the positioning information determined by the second determining module to the PLC central control module; and the central control module is used for carrying out four-vehicle interlocking control according to the positioning information.
Example 2:
as shown in FIG. 1, before the system identifies the oven number, images of all oven number identification plates are taken to generate an image library. When the system works, the camera is opened and captures images in real time, when a camera vehicle runs and the furnace number signboard enters the range of the camera, the camera carries out image recognition and comparison on the number signboard, a Halcon visual graphic processing soft real-time analysis is used for analyzing a target furnace number, and the offset of the central coordinate of the camera and the central coordinate of the furnace number signboard is analyzed in real time. With the furnace number and the offset, the relative position of the locomotive relative to the center of the furnace number signboard can be determined. And after the industrial personal computer is analyzed and processed by software, the identified furnace number and coordinate offset are transmitted to the central control PLC in a wireless communication mode, the PLC controls walking, and four-vehicle interlocking control is carried out according to the positioning position.
The system comprises the following components: the computer vision positioning system for the four coke ovens comprises an industrial personal computer, a high-resolution variable-focus industrial high-speed camera, an image acquisition card, an oven number signboard, a stable light source, an AP + CPE wireless network, a central control PLC and the like.
The image recognition software system is the core and key technology of the whole computer vision positioning system, and the algorithm of the image recognition software system is directly related to the running speed and the recognition accuracy of the system. The image recognition software system mainly comprises: image preprocessing, edge extraction and image identification. The software flow chart of the image software identification software system is as follows:
(1) Image preprocessing:
the number signboard image shot by an industrial camera inevitably generates some noise in the transmission and conversion processes, so that the noise-removing and image-enhancing image preprocessing is required before the image processing. The noise brings many difficulties to image processing, and has direct influence on subsequent image processing such as image segmentation, edge extraction, image recognition and the like. Therefore, the number signboard image collected in real time needs to be filtered.
(2) Edge extraction:
in order to separate the furnace number signboard image from a complex background in the image identification processing, the obtained part edge image is subjected to binarization processing and gray value processing.
(3) Image recognition:
when the locomotive runs, the number plate number and the offset between the camera center and the furnace number signboard are analyzed by comparing the real-time collected image with the prestored signboard image. And transmitting the data to the central control PLC through wireless communication to perform interlocking control.
For the selection of the furnace number signboard in the technical scheme, the digital signboard is only used as one of the markers, and the furnace number signboard can also be replaced by a graduated scale, a color card and the like.
In a word, the invention has high positioning speed, can work for a long time and can run for 24 hours all day. In the production operation of a coke-oven plant, the furnace body number plate is mainly recognized by the naked eyes of a cart operator, the locomotive is driven to be aligned in the alignment, the eyes of the operator are easy to be tired after long-time operation, and the operator is easily influenced by emotion and can cause production accidents in severe cases. Each operator has slight difference in the judgment of the target operation furnace number center, and needs to be competent by operators with abundant experience. When the production rhythm is tense, the rapid positioning by manpower cannot be ensured. The computer vision positioning technology not only overcomes the defects of the traditional manual furnace number positioning method, but also plays the advantages of rapidness and accuracy.
