Detailed Description
For the purpose of making the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more apparent, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments, and all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making any inventive effort based on the embodiments of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
As described above, the present paving brick is mainly divided into two paving modes, i.e. dry mortar paving and tile glue paving. The two paving modes need to use the tail end actuating mechanism of the robot to carry out actions such as pressing, and the requirements on the paved dry mortar or scraped cement paste are relatively high, otherwise, the quality problem that the brick surface has height difference or hollowness after paving is easy to occur. When the paved dry mortar or cement paste is insufficient, the situation that the quality of the dry mortar or cement paste is empty or the brick surface is lower than the brick paving finished surface is easily caused after the paving is finished; when the materials are too much, because the weight of the robot must be within a certain range, the load that the end effector of the robot can provide is limited, and the excessive pressure may cause the robot to lift off the ground, and insufficient force for pressing the bricks may cause a situation that the finished surface of the bricks to be paved is too high. Both conditions can cause a difference in the height of the tile paving surface, which affects the quality of the tile. In view of the above, the invention provides a robot tile paving method based on force-position hybrid control, which realizes accurate control of the tile paving pressing operation process in a force-position hybrid control mode, so that the tile surface can be accurately adjusted to a preset tile finishing surface height within the bearable range of a robot, and the tile paving quality is improved.
Specific implementations of the above concepts are described below.
Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for paving bricks by a robot based on force-position hybrid control, the method comprising:
step 100, determining the upper stress limit of an end actuating mechanism of a robot and the height of a brick laying finished surface;
for example, a horizontal laser line may be provided for indicating the height of the finished surface of the tile;
102, enabling the robot to take bricks, and acquiring position information and stress information of an end actuating mechanism of the robot in six dimensions;
the six dimensions comprise an x axis and a y axis in a horizontal plane, a z axis in a vertical direction, and rotation dimensions Rx, ry and Rz taking the x axis, the y axis and the z axis as rotating shafts respectively;
104, according to the position information of the end actuating mechanism in six dimensions and the current position of the brick to be paved, enabling the end actuating mechanism to hold the brick to move to the position of the brick to be paved;
step 106, the end actuating mechanism is made to execute the pressing operation, and in the pressing process, only the position information and the stress information of the end actuating mechanism on the z axis are obtained in real time;
that is, in the pressing process of step 106, the position information and the stress information in the other five dimensions can be no longer obtained, so as to reduce the measurement burden and the processing speed;
step 108, controlling the pressing operation according to the position information and the stress information of the end actuating mechanism on the z axis, including:
according to the position information of the end actuating mechanism on the z axis, the brick surface height is monitored in real time, and meanwhile, according to the stress information of the end actuating mechanism on the z axis, the acting force condition of the robot on the brick surface is monitored in real time;
if the brick surface reaches the vicinity of the brick paving completion surface, judging whether empty drums exist under the brick surface according to the stress information of the current end actuating mechanism on the z axis, stopping working and alarming if the empty drums exist under the brick surface, separating the end actuating mechanism from the bricks, updating the current brick to be paved position, and returning to the step of enabling the robot to take the bricks, namely returning to the step 102; wherein, the judging condition near the brick paving completion surface is that the difference between the height of the brick surface and the height of the brick paving completion surface is not more than a preset height difference threshold; for example, the preset height difference threshold may be set to 0.5mm, i.e., when the height of the brick face does not differ from the height of the brick finish face by more than 0.5mm, the height of the brick face is considered to be near the brick finish face; in other embodiments, other preset height difference thresholds may be set as desired;
if the acting force of the brick surface of the end actuating mechanism on the z axis is continuously increased to the upper limit of the stress, the robot stops pressing operation, and judges whether the height of the brick surface reaches the vicinity of the brick paving completion surface, if so, the end actuating mechanism is separated from the brick, the current brick to be paved position is updated, and the step of enabling the robot to take the brick is returned, namely, the step 102 is returned; otherwise, acquiring the position information and the stress information of the current end actuating mechanism in three dimensions of a z axis, rx and Ry, enabling the robot to horizontally move downwards until the height of the brick surface reaches the vicinity of the brick paving completion surface in a kneading or vibrating mode, acquiring the position information and the stress information of the current end actuating mechanism in three dimensions of the x axis, the y axis and the Rz, adjusting the pose of the brick, enabling the brick to be at a specified brick paving position after the adjustment of six dimensions is completed, enabling angles of the brick joints, the brick, the height of the brick and the like to meet the requirements, enabling the end actuating mechanism to be separated from the brick, updating the current brick paving position, and returning to the step of enabling the robot to take the brick, namely returning to step 102.
According to the embodiment of the invention, a force position combination mode is adopted to perform tile paving control, the situation that empty drums occur due to insufficient feeding is avoided by enabling the height of dry mortar to exceed the height of a tile paving completion surface, the tile surface height and the z-axis force of a robot are monitored in real time in the process of controlling the pressing operation in step 108, if the tile surface of a held tile reaches the vicinity of the tile paving completion surface, if empty drums exist in force detection, the working is stopped and an alarm is given, if the acting force of an end executing mechanism on the z-axis is increased to the upper limit of the force of the tile surface, if the acting force of the end executing mechanism on the z-axis is still required to be adjusted continuously according to the tile surface height detection, if the acting force of the end executing mechanism is still required to be adjusted downwards, the z-axis data are acquired, the tile surface is still required to be pressed downwards in a kneading or vibrating mode, the two rotation dimensions of Rx and Ry are ensured to be unchanged at the same time, namely, the tile surface level is ensured, and after the vicinity of the tile paving completion surface is reached, the specific positions and angles of the tile on the x-axis, the y-axis and the Rz dimension are adjusted, if alignment and the like are met, so that the tile paving quality of the tile is required to be improved. The kneading can be realized by moving the bricks in front, back, left and right directions, the specific moving direction can be determined according to the idle positions around the tiles to be paved, and the vibrating can be performed at the original position, but no matter kneading or vibrating, the stress of the robot on the z-axis should not exceed the stress upper limit so as to avoid the problems of self-grounding of the robot or overload of an end executing mechanism and the like.
In addition, in the pressing process, only the position information and the stress information of the end actuating mechanism on the z axis are obtained in real time, so that the burden of information acquisition and processing is reduced; when kneading or vibrating is needed, the position information and the stress information of the end actuating mechanism in two dimensions Rx and Ry are obtained so as to ensure the level of the brick surface in the descending process; when the positions of the bricks in the x-axis and y-axis directions and in the Rz dimension are required to be adjusted, the position information and the stress information of the current end actuating mechanism in the x-axis, y-axis and Rz dimensions are acquired, so that the brick joints are aligned; when a brick is paved and a next brick is prepared, the position information and the stress information of the tail end executing mechanism of the robot in six dimensions are acquired, so that the operations of precisely taking the brick, moving and the like are realized, and meanwhile, the information processing amount is reduced.
The manner in which the individual steps are performed is described below.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, after determining the height of the tile-forming surface, the method further includes, before the step of taking the tile by the robot:
after the robot moves to the operation position, the feeding operation, the fine flattening operation and the slurry spraying operation are sequentially completed;
the feeding operation comprises adding dry mortar in a region to be paved with bricks until the height of the dry mortar exceeds the height of the paving finished surface.
Further, before the step of taking bricks by the robot, the step of setting horizontal laser lines can also comprise manual material mixing, and the steps of stacking bricks to be paved to a designated position and the like can be performed in advance. After the front-end work is completed, the robot can be started to load the paving scene.
Optionally, the loading operation further includes:
and detecting the height of the dry mortar, wherein the height of the dry mortar is not more than 1cm higher than the height of the brick laying finished surface.
The excessive mortar may cause the difficulty of the robot to press the brick surface to the preset height of the brick paving completion surface, so that the dry mortar is not required to be controlled to be too high to exceed the height of the brick paving completion surface in order to avoid excessive feeding. In other embodiments, the height above the finished surface of the tile may be set as desired.
Optionally, the fine flattening operation includes:
enabling the robot to start a fine spreading tool, and enabling the fine spreading tool to move on the surface of the dry mortar to realize fine spreading.
In the process of performing the fine flattening operation, the robot moves and finds the position starting the fine flattening through the related sensor; and according to the placed laser line, the dry mortar is finely flattened by adjusting the height to the corresponding height through a sensor and keeping the fixed height, angle and levelness. The flattening quality is preferably improved by moving the end effector at a constant speed.
Optionally, the slurry spraying operation includes:
enabling the robot to take the slurry spraying mechanism, starting the slurry spraying mechanism, and spraying slurry on the surface of the dry mortar after spreading by using the output end of the slurry spraying mechanism;
if the slurry spraying mechanism is detachable, the slurry spraying mechanism is detached after the slurry spraying operation is completed.
After finishing the fine flattening operation, the robot moves to the slurry spraying mechanism, then the slurry spraying mechanism is taken, the slurry spraying mechanism moves to the initial position of the dry mortar which has finished the fine flattening again, the slurry spraying pump, the valve and other controllers are started, the height position of the laser line obtained by the sensor is kept to be at a certain height to move in the horizontal direction, and cement slurry is uniformly sprayed onto the dry mortar which has finished the fine flattening until the slurry spraying operation is finished. The process of finely flattening mortar and the speed of pouring mortar are controlled by a machine, so that the uniformity and flatness of the mortar contacted with the brick surface in the subsequent brick paving process are ensured.
Alternatively, for step 100, the upper stress limit may be determined by:
determining a first upper stress limit of the end effector in the z-axis according to the working parameters of the robot;
determining a second upper limit of stress when the end effector is depressed along a z-axis to the robot lift-off; the robot ground clearance judging condition is that the detection result of a force sensor arranged below the robot base is reduced below a preset gravity threshold value; the gravity threshold is preferably not less than 1/3 of the standing gravity of the robot;
taking N times of the smaller value of the first stress upper limit and the second stress upper limit as the stress upper limit of the tail end executing mechanism of the robot; n is preferably 3/4 to 5/6, more preferably 4/5.
By adopting the embodiment, the condition that the robot is overloaded or is separated from the ground can be effectively avoided, the overload, namely the stress of the end actuating mechanism, exceeds the preset upper limit, the robot is possibly damaged, the separation, namely the downward pressing and the force application of the robot are overlarge, the base of the robot is reversely separated from the ground, the information acquired by the robot again after the separation can deviate from the actual condition, the tilting can be triggered, and the paving effect can be influenced, so that the stress of the robot is very necessary to be accurately controlled in the actual paving process. Taking 4/5 of the smaller value of the first stress upper limit and the second stress upper limit as the stress upper limit of the tail end executing mechanism of the robot can ensure that the robot does not have extreme conditions and can always work normally.
Optionally, for step 108, determining whether there is a void under the tile surface includes:
judging whether the stress of the end actuating mechanism on the z axis is smaller than a preset stress lower limit or not; if the difference is smaller than the preset value, the empty drum is considered to exist under the brick surface, otherwise, the empty drum is considered to exist under the brick surface.
According to the embodiment, the condition that the stress of the end actuating mechanism on the z axis is smaller than the preset stress lower limit is taken as the condition for judging that empty drums exist, other detection means are not needed to be introduced, the fact that the acting force of the robot on the brick surface is smaller can be used for judging that mortar under the brick paving is insufficient, namely that the brick currently paved by the robot does not meet the requirement is judged, the machine can pause paving, manual adjustment is reminded, and the problem of the empty drums possibly caused is solved in time. In other embodiments, other ways of determining whether a cavitation exists may also be employed.
Optionally, for step 108, controlling the pressing operation further includes:
in the process of downwards moving the brick surface in a kneading or vibrating mode, if the acting force of the brick surface in six dimensions of the end actuating mechanism is applied for three times to reach the upper stress limit, stopping working and alarming.
According to the embodiment, the acting force of the end actuating mechanism on the brick surface on the z axis is detected in the kneading or vibrating process, if the acting force of the end actuating mechanism on the brick surface on the six dimensions reaches the upper stress limit three times, namely the acting force of the end actuating mechanism on the six dimensions is not reduced in the kneading or vibrating process, and the height of the end actuating mechanism does not reach the standard height, the brick surface cannot be further lowered by kneading or vibrating, too much feeding is confirmed, the problem is difficult to solve by a robot alone, and an alarm is necessary to inform staff of intervention so as to ensure the brick paving quality.
Optionally, among the position information of the end effector in six dimensions, the position information in x-axis, y-axis, and Rz rotational dimensions is determined by machine vision, the position information in z-axis dimension is determined by machine vision or point laser, and the position information in both Ry and Rz rotational dimensions is determined by value calculation of gyroscope or point laser.
The embodiment can determine the position information of the end effector in six dimensions through machine vision and a gyroscope or a point laser, and the gyroscope or the point laser can rapidly determine the inclination angle of the brick surface relative to the horizontal plane (namely the plane formed by the x axis and the y axis), so that the processing speed is faster and the resolution is better compared with the machine vision. In other embodiments, other sensors or detection schemes may be used to determine the six-dimensional data.
The embodiment of the invention also provides a brick laying robot which is used for realizing the method according to any one of the embodiments; the tiling robot includes: a movable base and an end effector disposed on the movable base.
Optionally, a force sensor is arranged on a base of the brick laying robot and used for monitoring the gravity of the brick laying robot in real time;
when the real-time gravity of the brick laying robot is smaller than a preset gravity threshold, the brick laying robot gives an alarm.
In the above embodiment, the force sensor is provided on the base of the brick laying robot, when the force sensor determines the upper limit of the stress of the end actuating mechanism of the robot in step 100, the force sensor can be used for determining the second upper limit of the stress when the end actuating mechanism is pressed down to the ground leaving position of the robot along the z axis, and in the brick laying process, whether the robot has a sign of ground leaving or not can be continuously monitored, so that the data information acquired by the brick laying robot is accurate and free, the working state of the brick laying robot body is stable, and the problems of toppling and the like can not occur.
