本発明は、ベルトコンベアで搬送される搬送物(ずり等)に含まれる大塊搬送物を検知する大塊検知システムに関する。   The present invention relates to a large block detection system for detecting a large block transported material included in a transported material (slip or the like) transported by a belt conveyor.

例えば建設工事では、岩石、土砂、コンクリートガラ、骨材等の搬送物をベルトコンベアで搬送する場合がある。かかるベルトコンベアにおいて、所定以上の大きさの大塊搬送物が搬送される場合には、大塊搬送物によってベルトが損傷するおそれがある。かかる事態が発生すると、ベルトの切断や荷こぼれを引き起こし、その修復のためにベルトコンベアの稼働率が低下することになる。かかる事態を回避するため、特許文献1,2には、搬送物に対して斜め上から光を照射した状態で当該搬送物を撮影し、撮影画像における搬送物の陰影に基づいて大塊搬送物を検知する技術が開示されている。   For example, in construction work, there are cases where transported objects such as rocks, earth and sand, concrete glass, and aggregates are transported by a belt conveyor. In such a belt conveyor, when a large-sized conveyed product having a size larger than a predetermined size is conveyed, the belt may be damaged by the large-sized conveyed product. When such a situation occurs, the belt is cut or spilled, and the operation rate of the belt conveyor is reduced for the repair. In order to avoid such a situation, in Patent Documents 1 and 2, the transported object is photographed in a state where light is obliquely applied to the transported object, and the large transport object is based on the shadow of the transported object in the photographed image. A technique for detecting the above is disclosed.

そして、時間tにおいて撮影された第一の画像P1(図3(a))では、ずり2aは照明部30よりも上流側に位置しており、ずり2aに対して右側から光が照射されているので、ずり2aの左側に陰が生じており、時間tにおいて撮影された第二の画像P2(図3(b))では、ずり2aは照明部30よりも下流側に位置しており、ずり2aに対して左側から光が照射されているので、ずり2aの右側に陰が生じている。
≪Large shear detection unit 53≫
The large lump detection unit 53 detects a large lump that is a large lump transported object included in the shear 2 based on two photographed images taken by the photographing unit 40 with a time difference.
The time when the first image P1 shown in FIG. 3A (the image obtained by imaging the first region S1 in FIG. 2) is taken is t 1 , and the second image P2 shown in FIG. 3B (FIG. 2). the second region S2 photographed image) t 2 time taken is, when the speed of the belt 12 at time t 1 ~t 2 was v, shear 2 included in the second image P2 is first This means that the belt 12 is moving in the moving direction of the belt 12 by v · (t 2 −t 1 ) with respect to the shear 2 included in one image P1.
Then, the first image P1 taken at time t 1 (FIG. 3 (a)), shear 2a is located upstream of the illumination unit 30, light is irradiated from the right side with respect to shear 2a since it is, and negative to the left is generated shear 2a, the second image P2 captured at time t 2 (Fig. 3 (b)), shear 2a is located downstream of the illumination unit 30 In addition, since light is applied to the shear 2a from the left side, a shadow is generated on the right side of the shear 2a.

大塊ずり検知部53は、第一の画像P1及び第二の画像P2を時刻t〜tにおけるベルト12の移動量v・(t−t)に基づいて位置合わせした上で、第一の画像P1及び第二の画像P2の論理積画像を生成する。詳細には、ベルト12の移動方向における撮影範囲S1,S2のベルト12の移動方向の実際の寸法A1に対する画像P1,P2のピクセルA2の比(A2/A1)をAとしたとき、大塊ずり検知部53は、第二の画像P2をA・v・(t−t)ピクセルだけ左側にずらして第一の画像P1に対する位置合わせを行った上で、第一の画像P1及び第二の画像P2の論理積画像P3(図3(c))を生成する。論理積画像P3では、ずり2aに対して左右両方向から光が照射されている状態となるので、ずり2aの左右両側に陰が生じている。すなわち、論理積画像P3におけるずり2aは、輪郭部分が陰で黒く映り、中央部分が光で白く映っている。なお、前記したAは、撮影部40の倍率に相当し、大塊ずり検知部53は、画像とともに撮影部40から出力された当該画像の倍率を取得し、前記したAの値として用いることができる。 Daikatamari shear detection unit 53, after aligning based on the amount of movement of the belt 12 a first image P1 and the second image P2 at time t 1 ~t 2 v · (t 2 -t 1), A logical product image of the first image P1 and the second image P2 is generated. Specifically, when the ratio (A2 / A1) of the pixels A2 of the images P1 and P2 to the actual dimension A1 in the moving direction of the belt 12 in the shooting ranges S1 and S2 in the moving direction of the belt 12 is A, large block shear The detection unit 53 shifts the second image P2 to the left by A · v · (t 2 −t 1 ) pixels and aligns the first image P1 with the first image P1 and the second image P1. A logical product image P3 (FIG. 3C) of the image P2 is generated. In the logical product image P3, since the light is irradiated from both the left and right directions with respect to the shear 2a, shadows are generated on both the left and right sides of the shear 2a. In other words, the shear 2a in the logical product image P3 has the contour portion shaded black and the center portion light white. Note that the above-described A corresponds to the magnification of the photographing unit 40, and the massive lump detection unit 53 acquires the magnification of the image output from the photographing unit 40 together with the image and uses it as the value of A described above. it can.

さらに、大塊ずり検知部53は、予め設定された輝度閾値を用いて、論理積画像P3の輝度を二値化する二値化処理を施すことによって二値化画像(図示せず)を生成する。また、大塊ずり検知部53は、二値化画像に輪郭縮小処理を施すことによって輪郭縮小画像P4(図3(d))を生成し、輪郭縮小画像P4から大塊ずりを検知する。
より詳細には、大塊ずり検知部53は、輪郭縮小画像に含まれる最も大きい白色部分を探索し、探索された白色部分の面積(ピクセル数)を算出し、算出された面積が所定値以上である場合には、大塊ずり検知と判定し、算出された面積が所定値未満である場合には、大塊ずり未検知と判定する。
大塊ずりを検知した場合、大塊ずり検知部53が大塊ずりを検知した旨を示す信号を通知部52へ出力し、通知部52が大塊ずりの検知を利用者へ通知したり、大塊ずり検知部53が大塊ずりを検知した旨を示す信号をベルトコンベア制御部53aへ出力し、ベルトコンベア制御部53aがベルトコンベア10(本実施形態では、自走式クラッシャー全体)を駆動停止したりする。
Furthermore, the large block shear detection unit 53 generates a binarized image (not shown) by performing binarization processing for binarizing the luminance of the logical product image P3 using a preset luminance threshold. To do. Further, the large chunk shear detection unit 53 generates a contour reduced image P4 (FIG. 3D) by performing a contour reduction process on the binarized image, and detects a large chunk shear from the contour reduced image P4.
More specifically, the large lump detection unit 53 searches for the largest white portion included in the reduced outline image, calculates the area (number of pixels) of the searched white portion, and the calculated area is equal to or greater than a predetermined value. If the calculated area is less than a predetermined value, it is determined that no large block shear has been detected.
When detecting a large block shear, the large block shear detection unit 53 outputs a signal indicating that the large block shear is detected to the notification unit 52, and the notification unit 52 notifies the user of the detection of the large block shear, A signal indicating that the large block shear detection unit 53 has detected the large block shear is output to the belt conveyor control unit 53a, and the belt conveyor control unit 53a drives the belt conveyor 10 (in this embodiment, the entire self-propelled crusher). Or stop.

なお、撮影部40による撮影の時間間隔は、撮影部40の画角、ベルト12の速度、検知対象の大塊ずりの寸法等に応じて変更可能である。例えば、検知対象の大塊ずりの寸法を0.2[m]とした場合には、ベルト12の走行方向の前後での陰影を得ることができるよう照明部30の上流側及び下流側で撮影する必要があり、撮影部40の画角Aは、ベルト12の走行方向に対して0.2[m]×2+0.1(マージン)で0.5[m]以上必要となる。このときにベルト12の速度が2[m/sec]とすれば、撮影の時間間隔はずり2が0.2[m]移動するまでとなり、0・2/2で0.1[sec]以内となる。したがって、大塊ずり検知部53bによる処理時間は0.1[sec]以内としなければならないが、これは、現状のコンピュータで十分可能な時間である。   Note that the time interval for photographing by the photographing unit 40 can be changed according to the angle of view of the photographing unit 40, the speed of the belt 12, the size of the large block shear to be detected, and the like. For example, when the size of the large lump to be detected is set to 0.2 [m], photographing is performed on the upstream side and the downstream side of the illumination unit 30 so that shadows before and after the traveling direction of the belt 12 can be obtained. The angle of view A of the photographing unit 40 is required to be 0.5 [m] or more at 0.2 [m] × 2 + 0.1 (margin) with respect to the traveling direction of the belt 12. At this time, if the speed of the belt 12 is 2 [m / sec], the shooting time interval shift 2 is moved by 0.2 [m], and within 0.2 [0.2] within 0.1 [sec] It becomes. Therefore, the processing time by the large block shear detection unit 53b must be within 0.1 [sec], which is a time that is sufficiently possible with a current computer.

本発明の実施形態に係る大塊ずり検知システム1は、ベルト12の走行と照明部40の位置関係とを用いて陰影のある二枚の画像を撮影し、二枚の画像の論理積画像から大塊ずりを検知するので、簡易な構造で大塊ずりを検知することができる。
