As shown in fig. 1, the present invention provides a sheet splicing and aligning system based on dual CCD sensors, for aligning corresponding target features of a first sheet 100 and a second sheet 200 to be spliced, which are placed side by side in an X direction (a direction indicated by an arrow on the first sheet 100 in fig. 1), the system comprising a control module 1, an actuator 2 and two linear CCD sensor modules 3.
The actuator 2 includes a moving platform 21 for placing the first sheet 100 and a driving unit 22 for driving the moving platform 21 to move in a Y direction (a direction indicated by a double-headed arrow on the moving platform 21 in fig. 1) perpendicular to the X direction.
The two linear array CCD sensor modules 3 are respectively in communication connection with the control module 1, and the two linear array CCD sensor modules 3 are arranged side by side along the X direction, wherein one linear array CCD sensor module 3 is used for acquiring a first image of a first target area corresponding to the first sheet 100 and determining position information of a first target feature in the first image based on image identification, and the other linear array CCD sensor module 3 is used for acquiring a second image of a second target area corresponding to the second sheet 200 and determining position information of a second target feature in the second image based on image identification, wherein the first target feature and the second target feature are respectively located on the first sheet 100 and the second sheet 200 and need to be aligned when the first sheet 100 and the second sheet 200 are spliced. In particular, the first and second target features may be the edges of the sheets, the printing on the sheets, the pattern on the sheets, etc. that are required for the splicing of two sheets.
The control module 1 is in communication connection with the driving unit 22, and the control module 1 is configured to calculate a moving direction and a moving distance of the mobile platform 21 according to the position information of the first target feature and the position information of the second target feature, and generate a driving control signal according to the calculated moving direction and moving distance of the mobile platform 21, where the driving control signal is used to control the driving unit 22 to drive the mobile platform 21 to move to a target position, so that the first target feature and the second target feature are aligned.
When the linear array CCD sensor imaging system is used, a first sheet 100 is placed at a preset position on a moving platform 21 (the first sheet 100 can be conveyed to the preset position of the moving platform 21 through a conveying mechanism capable of conveying sheets such as a conveying roller, the sheet conveying belongs to the prior art, and is not described herein any more), at the moment, a linear array CCD sensor module 3 positioned above the first sheet 100 scans and photographs a first target area of the first sheet 100 to obtain a first image, and meanwhile, a first target feature is identified in the first image based on an image identification technology, position information of the first target feature is calculated, and the position information is sent to a control module 1; then, the second sheet 200 is conveyed by another conveying mechanism (not shown in the figure) to a direction close to the first sheet 100 (as indicated by an arrow on the first sheet 100 in fig. 1, namely, the positive direction of the X), when the second sheet 200 is conveyed to a predetermined position, another linear CCD sensor module 3 scans a second target area of the second sheet 200 and takes a picture to obtain a second image, and meanwhile, a second target feature is recognized in the second image based on an image recognition technology, and position information of the second target feature is calculated and sent to the control module 1; next, the control module 1 calculates the moving direction and the moving distance of the moving platform 21 according to the position information of the first target feature and the position information of the second target feature detected by the two linear array CCD sensor modules 3, generates a driving control signal according to the calculated moving direction and moving distance of the moving platform 21, and sends the driving control signal to the driving unit 22, and the driving unit 22 drives the moving platform 21 to move to a target position along a certain direction (i.e., a positive direction or a negative direction of Y) in the directions indicated by the double-headed arrow on the moving platform 21 in fig. 1 according to the driving control signal, so that the first target feature is aligned with the second target feature. After the first sheet 100 is aligned with the first sheet 100, the subsequent sheet splicing operation can be performed by the sheet splicing apparatus.
According to the sheet splicing and aligning system of the embodiment, the two linear array CCD sensor modules 3 are used for identifying the target characteristics and determining the position information of the first sheet 100 and the second sheet 200 to be spliced, so that other target characteristics such as printing lines and patterns except for the edge line characteristics of the sheets can be effectively identified, the system can be suitable for the aligned splicing of two sheets with more types of target characteristics and the aligned splicing of two sheets with larger position deviation, and the application range is wider; the detection range of the CCD sensor is wider than that of photoelectric sensors such as a laser sensor, the detection range of the linear array CCD sensor can be adjusted to 50mm, and the deviation of the second sheet 200 in the conveying process is basically not large under the general condition, so that compared with a sheet alignment system which adopts the photoelectric sensors to detect the target characteristics of the sheets, the system can meet the alignment use scene of materials with larger deviation to a greater extent, and can effectively reduce manual intervention; in addition, because the number of the single-row pixels of the linear array CCD is much higher than that of the area array CCD and other photoelectric sensors, the resolution of the obtained image of the target area is also higher, and further, the specific position information of the target feature in the image obtained by the image recognition technology is more accurate, so that the driving control signal generated by the control module 1 according to the position information of the target feature can more accurately control the driving unit 22 to enable the moving platform 21 to more accurately move to the target position, and therefore, the splicing error when the two sheets are spliced can also be effectively reduced.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, the light-sensitive elements of the two line CCD sensor modules 3 are arranged in the Y direction, and the connecting line between the light-sensitive elements at the central positions of the two line CCD sensor modules 3 is parallel to the X direction. Therefore, the coordinate positions of the pixels of the two linear array CCD sensor modules 3 in the X direction can be aligned with each other, errors between detected position signals and actual position information of target characteristics of the sheets are effectively avoided, and detection precision is better guaranteed to reduce splicing alignment errors.
On the basis of the above embodiment, in one embodiment, the line CCD sensor module 3 includes an LCD touch screen for displaying the acquired image and for receiving user interaction to mark the target feature on the acquired image. The target characteristics of the sheets can be visually and clearly displayed through the LCD touch screen of the linear array CCD sensor module 3, and a field operator can mark the target characteristics of the sheets through interactive operations such as zooming on the pictures shot by the linear array CCD sensor module 3 through the LCD touch screen of the linear array CCD sensor module 3.
Based on the foregoing embodiments, further, in an embodiment, the determining the position information of the first target feature in the first image based on image recognition includes:
calculating various first preselected characteristics of a preset chroma threshold value with a chroma value jump larger than the preset chroma threshold value in the first image based on a difference algorithm and fast Fourier transform to obtain a first preselected characteristic set, namely selecting various characteristics with larger chroma value jump in the first image; in particular, the first preselected feature may be an edge line, a printed line, a pattern, or the like in the first image.
Comparing the chromatic value of each preselected feature in the first preselected feature set with the chromatic value of the pre-marked target feature, and determining the first target feature according to the comparison result; since there may be a plurality of first preselected features with large jump in chromaticity value in the first image, and only the target features need to be aligned when the sheets are spliced, the corresponding target features (i.e., the first target features) in the first image need to be screened out from each first preselected feature by comparing the chromaticity value with those of the pre-marked target features.
Obtaining position information of the first target feature based on the specific position of the pixel point corresponding to the first target feature in the first image and the mapping relation between the specific position of each pixel point in the first image and the position coordinates of each pixel point in the imaging area of the linear array CCD sensor module 3; the position information is specifically position coordinates of the first target feature.
Determining location information of a second target feature in a second image based on image recognition comprises:
calculating various second preselected characteristics with jump of the chromatic value larger than a preset chromatic threshold value in the second image based on a difference algorithm and fast Fourier transform to obtain a second preselected characteristic set, namely selecting various characteristics with jump of the chromatic value larger in the second image; in particular, the second preselected feature may be an edge line, a printed line, a pattern, or the like in the second image.
Comparing the chromatic value of each preselected feature in the second preselected feature set with the chromatic value of the pre-marked target feature, and determining a second target feature according to the comparison result; since there may be a plurality of second preselected features with larger jump in chromatic value in the second image, and only the target features need to be aligned when the sheets are spliced, the corresponding target features (i.e. the second target features) in the second image need to be screened out from each second preselected feature by comparing with the chromatic value of the pre-marked target feature.
And obtaining the position information of the second target feature based on the specific position of the pixel point corresponding to the second target feature in the second image and the mapping relation between the specific position of each pixel point in the second image and the position coordinates of each pixel point in the imaging area of the linear array CCD sensor module 3. The position information is specifically position coordinates of the second target feature.
Specifically, the preset chroma threshold may be specifically set according to chroma values of different target features on different sheets.
On the basis of the previous embodiment, further, in an embodiment, the driving unit 22 specifically includes a driving motor, a driving gear, a driven gear and a screw pair, a signal input end of the driving motor is connected with the control module 1, an output shaft of the driving motor is fixedly connected with the driving gear, the driving gear is engaged with the driven gear, the driven gear is fixedly connected with a driving end of a screw rod of the screw pair, and a nut of the screw pair is fixedly connected with the movable platform 21. The driving gear is driven by the driving motor, the driving gear drives the driven gear to rotate, the driven gear rotates to drive the lead screw of the lead screw pair to rotate, and therefore the moving platform 21 fixedly connected with the nut of the lead screw pair is made to do linear motion along the Y direction, the moving platform 21 drives the first sheet 100 to move along the Y direction, the first target feature on the first sheet 100 is aligned with the second target feature on the second sheet 200, and splicing accuracy is guaranteed.
Based on the above embodiment, further, in an embodiment, calculating the moving direction and the moving distance of the mobile platform 21 according to the position information of the first target feature and the position information of the second target feature includes:
obtaining the pixel point position corresponding to the first target characteristic according to the position information of the first target characteristic, the detection range of the linear array CCD sensor module 3 and the resolution of the linear array CCD sensor module 3;
obtaining pixel point positions corresponding to the second target characteristics according to the position information of the second target characteristics, the detection range of the linear array CCD sensor module 3 and the resolution of the linear array CCD sensor module 3;
and obtaining the moving direction and the moving distance of the moving platform 21 according to the pixel point position corresponding to the first target feature and the pixel point position corresponding to the second target feature.
On the basis of the above embodiment, further, in an embodiment, the generating the driving control signal according to the calculated moving direction and moving distance of the moving platform 21 includes:
calculating the rotating direction of the driving motor and the number of turns required to rotate according to the calculated moving direction and moving distance of the moving platform 21 and the transmission ratio between the driving gear and the transmission gear;
calculating the number of Hall pulses required for driving the driving motor based on the calculated number of turns required for rotating the driving motor and the number of Hall pulses required for rotating the driving motor by one turn;
and generating a driving control signal based on the calculated number of Hall pulses required for driving the driving motor and the rotating direction of the driving motor.
In order to provide a more intuitive understanding of the function of the system, the principle of alignment of two sheets of the system is described in detail below with specific examples:
in this example, the detection range of the two linear array CCD sensor modules 3 is ± 20mm, the output signal of the sensor is analog quantity 0-5V, the resolution is 1000, which is equivalent to that 40mm is divided into 1000 parts, and each part represents 0.04mm. If the linear CCD sensor module 3 on the second sheet 200 detects a target feature (edge line of material in this embodiment) on the second sheet 200 at the 400 th pixel point, the linear CCD sensor module 3 on the first sheet 100 detects a target feature (edge line) on the first sheet 100 at the 550 th pixel point by a difference of (550-400) × 0.04mm;
the control module 1 calculates the difference as +6mm according to the above formula, so that the driving motor needs to rotate forward to drive the moving platform 21 to move 6mm in the positive direction of the Y axis. The actuating mechanism 2 takes a driving motor as power, a screw rod of a screw rod pair is driven to rotate through a driving gear and a driven gear, and a nut of the screw rod pair reciprocates on the screw rod to drive the moving platform 21 to achieve the effect of advancing and retreating along the Y direction. In this example, the transmission ratio between the driving gear and the driven gear is 19, the screw pitch of the lead screw is 4mm, and the control module 1 can calculate that the number of rotation turns of the driving motor = (distance 6 mm/screw pitch 4 mm)/the transmission ratio (19) ≈ 4.58 turns, that is, the driving motor needs to rotate 4.58 turns; since the number of hall pulses per one revolution of the drive motor is 30, a total of 4.58 × 30 ≈ 137 pulses are required to be rotated.
