When the image capturing device 140 captures the image of the meal card 20, the processing unit 150 analyzes the image of the meal card 20 and reads the meal specifications of the lunch box 10.
如第4B圖的俯視放大所示,當餐盒10進入作業區W1後,處理單元150依據控制第一光條136發光,其中第一光條136的發光長度係依據餐盒10的膳食規格而定。進一步地說,若餐盒10的膳食規格包含第三膳食集中單元130_3的膳食F及第六膳食集中單元130_6的膳食F, 則處理單元150控制第三膳食集中單元130_3的第一光條136發光,且控制第六膳食集中單元130_6的第一光條136發光,如此,操作員可快速地從發光的第一光條,得知需要往那些膳食集中單元130取料。此外,若餐盒10的膳食規格包含第三膳食集中單元130_3的膳食F的份量係一份,且第六膳食集中單元130_6的膳食F的份量係半份,則第三膳食集中單元130_3的第一光條136的發光長度L1例如是其光條長度的一半,表示膳食份量是一份,而第六膳食集中單元130_6的第一光條136發光長度L1例如是其光條長度的1/4,表示膳食份量是半份。如此,操作員可快速地從第一光條136的發光長度得知膳食份量。此外,第一光條136的發光長度L1可以是其光條長度的任意比例,不受本發明實施例所限制。 As shown in the enlarged view of FIG. 4B, after the lunch box 10 enters the work area W1, the processing unit 150 emits light according to the control of the first light bar 136, wherein the light length of the first light bar 136 is based on the meal specifications of the lunch box 10. set. Further, if the meal size of the lunch box 10 includes the meal F of the third meal concentration unit 130_3 and the meal F of the sixth meal concentration unit 130_6, Then, the processing unit 150 controls the first light bar 136 of the third meal concentration unit 130_3 to emit light, and controls the first light bar 136 of the sixth meal concentration unit 130_6 to emit light, so that the operator can quickly remove the first light bar from the light. It is known that it is necessary to take materials from those meal concentration units 130. In addition, if the meal size of the lunch box 10 includes a portion of the meal F of the third meal concentration unit 130_3, and the portion of the meal F of the sixth meal concentration unit 130_6 is half, the third meal concentration unit 130_3 The light-emitting length L1 of a light bar 136 is, for example, half of the length of the light bar, indicating that the meal portion is one copy, and the first light bar 136 of the sixth meal concentration unit 130_6 has a light-emitting length L1 of, for example, 1/4 of the length of the light bar. , indicating that the serving size is half. In this way, the operator can quickly know the amount of meal from the length of illumination of the first strip 136. In addition, the illumination length L1 of the first light bar 136 may be any ratio of the length of its light bar, and is not limited by the embodiment of the present invention.
此外,第三膳食集中單元130_3的第一光條136的發光光色可與第六膳食集中單元130_6的第一光條136的發光光色相同或相異。一實施例中,第一光條136的發光光色可以是紅色、藍色、綠色或其它光色。 Further, the illuminating light color of the first light bar 136 of the third meal concentrating unit 130_3 may be the same as or different from the illuminating light color of the first light bar 136 of the sixth meal concentrating unit 130_6. In one embodiment, the illuminating color of the first strip 136 may be red, blue, green or other light colors.
如第4C圖所示,當餐盒10進入作業區W1內後,操作員可從第三膳食集中單元130_3取料,使第三膳食集中單元130_3的膳食F的重量減少,處理單元150依據第三膳食集中單元130_3的膳食F的重量變化,控制第三膳食集中單元130_3的第二光條137的發光長度L2。例如,當膳食F的重量愈輕時,發光長度L2愈長。當第三膳食集中單元130_3的第二光條137的發光長度L2接近第三膳食集中單元130_3的第一光條136的發光長度L1,表示取料量(膳食F重量的減少量)接近膳食規格。也就是說,操作員可透過比較第一光條136與第二光條137的發光長度,可快速地判斷取料量是否已達膳食規格。 As shown in FIG. 4C, after the lunch box 10 enters the work area W1, the operator can take the material from the third meal concentration unit 130_3 to reduce the weight of the meal F of the third meal concentration unit 130_3, and the processing unit 150 according to the first The weight change of the meal F of the three-meal concentration unit 130_3 controls the light-emission length L2 of the second light bar 137 of the third meal concentration unit 130_3. For example, when the weight of the meal F is lighter, the longer the illuminating length L2. When the light emission length L2 of the second light bar 137 of the third meal concentration unit 130_3 is close to the light emission length L1 of the first light bar 136 of the third meal concentration unit 130_3, it indicates that the take-up amount (the decrease amount of the meal F weight) is close to the meal specification. . That is to say, the operator can quickly determine whether the reclaimed amount has reached the meal size by comparing the lengths of the first light bar 136 and the second light bar 137.
相似地,操作員從第六膳食集中單元130_6取料的同時,第六膳食集中單元130_6的膳食F的重量減少,處理單元150依據第六膳食集中單元130_6的膳食F的重量變化,控制第六膳食集中單元130_6的第二光條137的發光長度L2。當第六膳食集中單元130_6的第二光條137的發光長度L2接近第六膳食集中單元130_6的第一光條136的發光長度L1,表示取料量接近膳食規格。也就是說,操作員可透過比較第一光條136與第二光條137的發光長度,可快速地判斷取料量是否已達膳食規格。 Similarly, while the operator takes the material from the sixth meal concentration unit 130_6, the weight of the meal F of the sixth meal concentration unit 130_6 is reduced, and the processing unit 150 controls the sixth according to the weight change of the meal F of the sixth meal concentration unit 130_6. The light emission length L2 of the second light bar 137 of the meal concentration unit 130_6. When the light emission length L2 of the second light bar 137 of the sixth meal concentration unit 130_6 is close to the light emission length L1 of the first light bar 136 of the sixth meal concentration unit 130_6, it indicates that the take-up amount is close to the meal size. That is to say, the operator can quickly determine whether the reclaimed amount has reached the meal size by comparing the lengths of the first light bar 136 and the second light bar 137.
此外,第三膳食集中單元130_3的第二光條137的光色可與第六膳食集中單元130_6的第二光條137的光色相同或相異。一實施例中,第二光條137的發光光色可以是紅色、藍色、綠色或其它光色。此外,同一膳食集中單元130的第一光條136與第二光條137的光色可相同或相異。 Further, the light color of the second light bar 137 of the third meal concentration unit 130_3 may be the same as or different from the light color of the second light bar 137 of the sixth meal concentration unit 130_6. In one embodiment, the illuminating color of the second strip 137 may be red, blue, green or other light colors. In addition, the light colors of the first light bar 136 and the second light bar 137 of the same meal concentration unit 130 may be the same or different.
待每個發光的第一光條136的發光長度L1與對應之第二光條137的發光長度L2接近時,表示操作員已完成餐盒10的放料作業。另一實施例中,當每個發光的第一光條136的發光長度L1與對應之第二光條137的發光長度L2接近時,處理單元150可控制所有的第一光條136及第二光條137可停止發光,表示目前作業中的餐盒10的放料作業已完成,使操作員可將目標放到下一個餐盒10’。 When the light emission length L1 of each of the light-emitting first light bars 136 is close to the light-emission length L2 of the corresponding second light bar 137, it indicates that the operator has completed the discharge operation of the lunch box 10. In another embodiment, when the illumination length L1 of each of the illuminated first light bars 136 is close to the illumination length L2 of the corresponding second light bar 137, the processing unit 150 can control all of the first light bars 136 and the second. The light bar 137 can stop emitting light, indicating that the discharging operation of the lunch box 10 in the current job has been completed, so that the operator can place the target to the next lunch box 10'.
綜合上述,透過本發明實施例之第一光條136及第二光條137(雙光條設計)的發光長度設計,可讓操作員快速判斷餐盒10的膳食規格及放料量是否符合膳食規格,可使膳食分配有效率地完成。 In summary, the illumination length design of the first light bar 136 and the second light bar 137 (double light bar design) according to the embodiment of the present invention allows the operator to quickly determine whether the meal size and the discharge amount of the lunch box 10 conform to the meal. Specifications allow the meal to be dispensed efficiently.
此外,如第4C圖所示,指示器160可設於固定機架120,且位於作業區W1上方。指示器160可投射一指示光束G1至作業中的餐盒 10,以指出目前作業中的餐盒10的位置,方便操作員快速地尋找到作業中的餐盒10。指示光束G1的光色可與第一光條136或第二光條137的光色相同或相異。此外,指示器160例如是投影機、雷射指示器或其它可投射光線或可指向的裝置。 Further, as shown in FIG. 4C, the indicator 160 may be disposed on the fixed frame 120 and located above the work area W1. The indicator 160 can project an indicator beam G1 to the lunch box in the job 10, to indicate the position of the lunch box 10 in the current operation, to facilitate the operator to quickly find the lunch box 10 in the job. The light color of the indicating light beam G1 may be the same as or different from the light color of the first light strip 136 or the second light strip 137. Additionally, indicator 160 is, for example, a projector, a laser pointer, or other device that can project light or can be pointed.
另一實施例中,處理單元150可計算餐盒10的移動時間,而獲得移動中餐盒10的位置。如此,處理單元150可控制指示器160的指示光束G1的投射方向,以與餐盒10同步移動,以精確地指出目前作業中的餐盒10的位置。另一實施例中,當作業區W1同時存在二餐盒時,指示器160可同時發出二不同光色的指示光束G1分別至二餐盒,二指示光束G1的二光色分別與二膳食集中單元130的第一光條136的二光色相同,可使操作員快速了解數個膳食集中單元130的膳食F與數個餐盒之間的對應關係。例如,若綠色的指示光束G1投射到其中一餐盒10時,則操作員可尋找發出綠色光的第一光條136,以將對應的膳食F裝填至餐盒10;若藍色的指示光束G1投射到另一餐盒10’時,則操作員可尋找發出藍色光的第一光條136,以將對應的膳食F裝填至餐盒10’。 In another embodiment, the processing unit 150 can calculate the movement time of the lunch box 10 to obtain the position of the mobile lunch box 10. As such, the processing unit 150 can control the projection direction of the indicator beam G1 of the indicator 160 to move in synchronization with the lunch box 10 to accurately indicate the position of the lunch box 10 in the current job. In another embodiment, when the working area W1 has two lunch boxes at the same time, the indicator 160 can simultaneously emit two different light color indicating light beams G1 to the two lunch boxes respectively, and the two indicating light beams G1 of the two light colors respectively and the two meal sets. The first light bar 136 of the unit 130 has the same two colors, which allows the operator to quickly understand the correspondence between the meal F of several meal concentration units 130 and several lunch boxes. For example, if the green indicator beam G1 is projected to one of the lunch boxes 10, the operator can look for the first light bar 136 that emits green light to load the corresponding meal F to the lunch box 10; if the blue indicator beam When G1 is projected to another lunch box 10', the operator can look for a first light strip 136 that emits blue light to load the corresponding meal F to the lunch box 10'.
另一實施例中,指示器160可同時發出二不同光色的指示光束G1分別至同一個餐盒10,二指示光束G1的二光色分別與二膳食集中單元130的二第一光條136的二光色相同。此外,二不同光色的指示光束G1可分別投射至餐盒10的二餐格,可讓操作員快速獲得數個膳食集中單元130的膳食F與餐盒10之數個餐格之間的對應關係。 In another embodiment, the indicator 160 can simultaneously emit the two different light color indicating light beams G1 to the same lunch box 10, and the two indicating light beams G1 and the two first light bars 136 of the two meal concentrating unit 130 respectively. The two light colors are the same. In addition, the two different light color indicator light beams G1 can be respectively projected to the two meals of the lunch box 10, which allows the operator to quickly obtain the correspondence between the meal F of the plurality of meal concentration units 130 and the plurality of meal boxes of the lunch box 10. relationship.
此外,假設餐盒10在經過一段時間後,操作員仍未完成放料作業,為了避免影響到下一個餐盒10’的作業,膳食分配輔助系統100可 自動切換至下一個餐盒10’的作業。此時,處理單元150開始依據下一個餐盒10’的膳食規格控制第一光條136的發光長度。 Further, it is assumed that after the meal box 10 has elapsed for a period of time, the operator has not completed the discharging operation, and in order to avoid the work affecting the next lunch box 10', the meal distribution assisting system 100 may The job of automatically switching to the next lunch box 10' is automatically performed. At this time, the processing unit 150 starts to control the light emission length of the first light bar 136 in accordance with the meal specifications of the next lunch box 10'.
舉例來說,如第4D圖所示,在餐盒10進入作業區W1時(如第4B圖所示的位置),處理單元150依據下式(2)開始計算△t2。 For example, as shown on FIG. 4D, the (first position as shown in FIG. 4B) when W1 of lunch boxes 10 into the work area, the processing unit 150 (2) based on the formula counted △ t 2.
式(2)中,△t2表示餐盒10一進入作業區W1後的移動時間,S2表示作業區W1的長度,S3表示餐盒10的長度。當餐盒10進入作業區W1且經過時間△t2後,表示餐盒10的至少一部分已離開作業區W1,處理單元150開始依據下一個餐盒10’的膳食規格控制第一光條136的發光長度,且依據膳食F的重量變化改變第二光條137的發光長度。實施例中,a為介於1至2(包含1及2)之間的一數值,當a等於2,表示餐盒10的一半已離開作業區W1。 (2) In the formula, △ t 2 represents a meal 10 into the mobile work area W1 of time after, S2 represents the length of the work area W1, S3 indicates the length of the lunch box 10. 10 when at least a portion of the lunch box lunch boxes 10 into the work area W1 and the elapsed time △ t 2, after leaving the work area W1 indicates, the first processing unit 150 starts to control a light bar 136 according to the following lunch box 10 'dietary specifications The length of illumination is changed, and the length of illumination of the second strip 137 is changed according to the change in weight of the meal F. In the embodiment, a is a value between 1 and 2 (including 1 and 2), and when a is equal to 2, it indicates that half of the lunch box 10 has left the work area W1.
於實施例中,如第4D圖所示,當處理單元150開始依據下一個餐盒10’的膳食規格控制第一光條136發光時,可同時控制指示器160的指示光束G1投射至餐盒10’,讓操作員得知作業目標已轉移至餐盒10’。 In the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4D, when the processing unit 150 starts to control the first light bar 136 to emit light according to the meal specification of the next lunch box 10', the indicator light G1 of the indicator 160 can be simultaneously controlled to be projected to the lunch box. 10', let the operator know that the work target has been transferred to the lunch box 10'.
另一實施例中,當下一個餐盒10’進入作業區W1時,在上一個餐盒10已完成放料作業或已離開作業區W1的情況下,處理單元150才開始依據餐盒10’的膳食規格控制第一光條136發光且依據膳食F的重量變化控制第二光條137發光。 In another embodiment, when the next lunch box 10' enters the work area W1, the processing unit 150 starts to be based on the lunch box 10' in the case where the last lunch box 10 has completed the discharge operation or has left the work area W1. The dietary specification controls the first strip 136 to emit light and controls the second strip 137 to emit light depending on the weight change of the meal F.
