Detailed Description
The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the technical solutions of the present invention will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

In order to realize the functions, the invention provides a related technical scheme, which comprises the following steps:
1) Adding nodes in the map, setting the attributes of the nodes, connecting paths and setting the attributes of the nodes;
specifically, first, all nodes through which the AGVs may pass are drawn in a scene and node attributes are set, wherein the node attributes mainly comprise node numbers, node types, names, code numbers, global coordinate information and the like. All types of nodes need to be provided with node number attributes, other attributes which are needed to be set by different types of nodes are different, such as a laser point needs to be provided with global coordinate attributes, a two-dimensional code node needs to be provided with code number attributes, a composite laser point needs to be provided with global coordinate attributes and code number attributes at the same time, then a path is drawn between two nodes needing path communication, and the path attributes are set, wherein the path attributes mainly comprise a path direction, the gesture of an AGV running on the path, obstacle avoidance and forbidden settings, the radius of an arc path and the like, and the path direction attributes are divided into a unidirectional path and a bidirectional path, which represent directions allowing running; the attitude attribute of the AGV running on the path defines the direction angle of the head of the AGV when the AGV runs on the path; the obstacle avoidance and forbidden setting defines the obstacle avoidance grade which is required to be used by the AGV when the AGV runs along the path or forbids the AGV to pass through the path; the path radius represents the corresponding arc radius when the path is an arc, and if the path is a straight path, the attribute is 0.
2) Setting certain node attributes and path attributes for each AGV;
specifically, for different AGVs in the system, some node attributes and path attributes may be different, and related node attributes include code numbers, global coordinates, and the like. The code number refers to a code number used by an AGV positioned by a landmark Rfid card or a two-dimensional code, and aiming at the same map node, the positions of the codes read by different AGVs at the node on the ground are possibly inconsistent, so that the code number needs to be independently set for each AGV at the point; global coordinates refer to the global coordinate information of the laser guided AGV at the node, and may be different due to the inconsistent coordinate systems of the laser guided AGV map. The related path attributes include path direction, path AGV gesture, path obstacle avoidance and forbidden setting and the like. The path direction has the following: unidirectional pointing to the starting point, unidirectional pointing to the ending point and bidirectional; the path AGV gesture refers to the running gesture direction of the AGV on the path section; similarly, obstacle avoidance and forbidden refer to the level of obstacle avoidance and whether the AGV is forbidden to pass on the path.
3) Performing conversion calculation on the position of the AGV according to different guiding modes of the AGV;
specifically, the guiding mode of the AGV is mainly divided into fixed path guiding and global free path guiding, when the AGV is the fixed path guiding, the position of the AGV is represented by a landmark card number at a path connecting point, and the calculation of AGV nodes is realized according to the current position code number fed back by the AGV and the configuration of the node in a map aiming at the current AGV; when the AGV is in global free path guidance, the position of the AGV is determined by the current global coordinates, and the nodes of the AGV need to be calculated according to the global coordinates and the global coordinate configuration of the nodes in the map. The calculated node number of the AGV is the unique position identification of the AGV in the electronic map.
4) Planning and analyzing the path according to different driving modes of the AGV;
specifically, according to different driving modes, the AGVs can be divided into an omni-directional AGV, a differential AGV and a traction type AGV, wherein the omni-directional AGV refers to an AGV (double steering wheels, wheat wheels and the like) capable of moving in all directions, the differential AGV refers to an AGV capable of rotating in situ and traveling in a front-back curve, the traction type AGV refers to an AGV capable of traveling in a front-back curve, and for each AGV in different driving modes, path planning is performed between the position of the AGV and the path end point according to the calculation in 3), and then, according to the calculation in 2), the code number or the global coordinate of each node in the path planning result can be obtained for the node in the path planning result. Aiming at the path in the path planning result, the AGV gesture, obstacle avoidance and forbidden setting and path direction of each path can be obtained, and finally, the AGV gesture and path direction are forbidden to be checked, and the AGV gesture checking method comprises the steps of: and carrying out feasibility judgment on the gesture of each path AGV by combining with the AGV driving mode, if the calculated AGV of a certain path can cause the AGV to transversely move under the gesture of the AGV, but the driving mode of the AGV is differential, judging that the analysis is wrong, and the related configuration of the path is not matched with the AGV driving mode.
5) Traffic control setting is carried out aiming at a bicycle AGV and a coordinated linkage AGV;
specifically, when multiple AGVs run simultaneously in the map, the possible collision and deadlock of the paths are considered, the traffic control calculation is required to be performed on the AGVs, firstly, the traffic control area is set for each node, different area radiuses are set for a certain node according to the vehicle body sizes and obstacle avoidance ranges of different AGVs, all nodes in the radius inner circular area (including edge points) are the traffic control areas of the node, then, the optimal paths for avoiding the collision and the deadlock are calculated by utilizing the path planning results of the control areas of the nodes and the AGVs, the path tasks of the multiple AGVs of different types can be performed in the same map, and the control areas need to be expanded to the node control areas where two vehicles are located and the communication areas between the two areas according to the double-vehicle or multi-vehicle linkage condition, so that the control areas belonging to the multi-vehicle linkage cannot collide with paths of other AGVs.
