The small rail car laser orientation system
Technical field:
The utility model relates to positioning system, specifically is a kind of small rail car laser orientation system.
Background technology:
Present industrial application a lot of small rail cars are arranged, when the work operation, need any vehicle positioning stop, carry out automatic blanking, material grasping, or the operation of side direction pusher.
As: iron ore raw material field railcar is grabbed the ore deposit, is joined heap ore deposit, ore deposit to each ore deposit heap;
On the long feeding belt raw material ore deposit through the belt dolly to the following ore deposit of respectively joining ore storage bin;
Ore dressing plant a plurality of fine ore bin belt dolly discharging;
Coke oven track ram is accurately located coke pushing etc.
In the past, generally adopt hand switch or travel switch to realize automatic location for localization method.The localization method of former three in for example above-mentioned example, (contact is arranged with travel switch, induction or optoelectronic switch) come spacing dolly to open, stop, after trolley is broken through anchor point, will open, stop by the travel switch dolly motor contactor (or magnetic starter) of advancing of interlocking, make it stop to advance, in this storehouse blanking.
This method utilizes travel switch to reach the dolly effect of location automatically, but still has following shortcoming in practice:
1) about the general wide about 6m of ore storage bin (heap), scope is bigger, after dolly is positioned at ore storage bin (heap), specifically is difficult to be positioned at this concrete certain on a large scale, causes blanking irregular, is unfavorable for the continuity of storehouse bottom discharge.To satisfy blanking even so need add travel switch, but system complex, maintenance and investment are increased.
In practice, for evenly blanking in this storehouse scope, generally stop, open by manually-operated, increased workman's operational ton.
2) for above-mentioned reasons, follow the tracks of the workman that dolly is advanced and operated,, damage easily that it is healthy because dust is big during blanking.
3) because travel switch all need be adorned in the turnover position in each storehouse, and the distance of generally advancing reaches more than 50 meters, even 100~300 meters, travel switch is all wanted jump lead everywhere, and operation circuit will remember positive and negative trend, make the Control Software establishment with safeguard complicated, system is too complicated, is unfavorable for safeguarding.
4) can not accomplish full-automatic blanking, still get profit and use manual control that efficient is not high.
In view of the above problems, travel switch does not still solve the problem of dolly location fully in practice.
Simultaneously, domesticly other have also occurred with solving the dolly orientation problem,, laid by induction along trolley track and trigger,, calculated the distance of dolly starting point according to the sign indicating number of triggering place number as using the coding cable sensor.Its shortcoming is that coding cable is subject to the external force environmental nuisance, is used in as it and is subject to the infringement of red heat coke button, scaling loss on the coke oven dolly, invests also higher.
Another kind is to add scrambler on dolly deceleration arbor, sends code signal by removal cable and wireless receiving and dispatching letter mode then.But the total travel windlass that this mode is used for fixing also can, be used in the following trolley that starting point and direction often change, 0 is easily floated, and usually need calibrate, difficult being suitable for.
Present industrial laser range finder (non-general range finding laser range finder) technology is comparative maturity, and it can survey low coverage, also can survey far away, the precision height can reach the mm level, and under industrial environment, non-stop run is output as the 4~20mA or the RS-485/232 communication information, and is quite reliable.Than other method, because it has the advantage that adaptability is strong, simple and clear, directly perceived, quick, reliability is high, precision is high, maintenance is very little.If can make up, constitute any detection and localization control system of a cover dolly and will have high-performance and use future very widely with it and miscellaneous equipment.
The utility model content:
At above-mentioned prior art, the purpose of this utility model aims to provide a kind of small rail car laser orientation system, can be by the method for laser ranging, any location work of distance measuring and control small rail car reaches the full-automatic location of small rail car, and realize simply, be convenient to safeguard.
The concrete technical scheme that the utility model is taked is, a kind of small rail car laser orientation system, the contactor that comprises laser instrument, the controller that is connected with laser instrument and control vehicle motor, described controller inserts the coil control circuit of contactor by relay, described laser instrument is positioned on the straight line that overlaps with the track of advancing of dolly, and the dolly of its transmitting terminal on the track.
In order to increase the reflective power that Laser emission is returned to the dolly back reflection, the position over against the laser instrument transmitting terminal on the described dolly is equipped with reflecting plate.
Described laser instrument adopts I level or II level security and basic security N-type semiconductor N laser range finder.
For simplified apparatus, be convenient to safeguard, above-mentioned laser instrument and controller, contactor and relay integration are installed in the control box.
Principle of work of the present utility model is: after the laser instrument energising, the emitted laser beam is to dolly, and the normal reflection light return laser light device that the dolly vehicle body produces, laser instrument accept can send behind the reflected signal distance signal between small rail car and the laser instrument (0 point).
This signal is sent into control device (secondary instrument that PLC, DCS, industrial computer, position formula are regulated etc.) and is compared with predefined blanking distance in the controller, reach in the allowed band as its difference, controller is the directional contactor action of output switching signal control vehicle motor then, dolly is stopped in the precalculated position or starts.
Laser instrument is to adopt I level or II level security and basic security N-type semiconductor N laser range finder, and it more can adapt to the outdoor environment mal-condition than other type stadimeter, as mist, rain, blanking dust, flame etc.Therefore, be fit to the random positioned application scenario of above-mentioned dolly.
Because the distance accuracy of laser instrument is more ultrasonic or radar etc. wants high, picking rate is up to 10
5Inferior/second, far above about trolley track gait of march 334mm/s.Therefore, even in dolly is advanced, also can in time reflect the dolly parking stall; Owing to be boundling, its localizing objects is very accurate; Make parking spot within the feed bin position range, also can locate arbitrarily, created condition for full-automatic evenly blanking (material grasping, pusher), for the technology in later stage lays the foundation.
Small rail car laser orientation system described in the utility model has saved a large amount of middle of stroke switches and corresponding stube cable, avoided in the driving, easily impaired, the situation that is subject to disturb of the unreliable and signal cable of travel switch action, only control in transmitting terminal emission and reception boundling laser, and do not install in orbit, institute is so that positioning system is succinct, reliable, and maintenance workload also greatly reduces.
