Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing and embodiment the utility model is carried out detailed description.
Shown in Fig. 1~4; The device of the adjustment radar optical axis of the utility model comprises an optical axis adjustment control system 1, a radar 2 and a signal reflectors 3; Optical axis adjustment control system 1 comprises a configuration module, a judge module, a logging modle, a calculating mean value module and an output module; Signal reflectors 3 comprises the adjusting support of a reflecting plate and a supporting reflex plate, and the method for the utility model adjustment radar optical axis may further comprise the steps:
1) radar 2 is installed in the front end center of automobile 4; Signal reflectors 3 is placed on about 5m place, automobile 4 dead aheads that radar 2 is installed; The adjusting support of adjustment signal reflectors 3 makes reflecting plate center and radar 2 centers height such as grade, and promptly the reflecting plate center is over against radar 2 centers; This moment, the radar angle of pitch did not dispose, and initial value i is 0 °.
In order to make the reflecting plate center can be over against radar 2 centers; Can adopt the method for laser aiming; Promptly utilize a laser pen; Make the laser pen emitted light beams pass the center line of automobile 4 front and back glass, the position of adjustment reflecting plate makes the laser pen emitted light beams just in time beat the vertical centerline at reflecting plate; Guaranteed longitudinal center's face (annotate: along the central plane of vehicle traveling direction) of automobile and the vertical center line of reflecting plate (annotate: the coplane center line of vertical direction), adjust reflecting plate again and make its center identical with radar 2 centers apart from the height on ground apart from the height on ground.
2) configuration module is set radar angle of pitch setting range and adjustment step-length according to the radar of being selected for use; Radar 2 models that adopted among the utility model embodiment are Continental ARS308; The setting range of its radar 2 angles of pitch is 0~32 °; The adjustment step-length is 0.25 ° (as example, being not limited thereto).
3) configuration module is i according to the adjustment step-length configuration radar angle of pitch, and concurrent delivery is put signal and given radar 2, when radar 2 receives configuration signal, the angle of pitch is adjusted to i, and the emission radar signal is to reflecting plate.
4) radar 2 sends to judge module with the feedback signal that receives; Judge module is judged the fore-and-aft distance and the width of the object information of carrying in the feedback signal; Whether the fore-and-aft distance of judging feedback signal is the distance between radar 2 and the signal reflectors 3, and whether the width of feedback signal is the width of reflecting plate, if fore-and-aft distance is all corresponding identical with width; Then thinking has the radar signal of returning through baffle reflection in the feedback signal, and promptly radar 2 scans reflecting plate.In the present embodiment; Distance between signal reflectors 3 and the radar 2 is 5m; The width of reflecting plate is 20mm, then if the fore-and-aft distance of judging feedback signal between 4m~6m and the width of signal think then that in 0.5m feedback signal has the radar signal through baffle reflection.
5) judge module is judged when radar signal that baffle reflection returns, just will this moment pairing radar angle of pitch value i send in the logging modle.
6) judge by configuration module whether radar angle of pitch i reaches the maximal value of setting range:
If 1. do not reach the maximal value of setting range, then get into step 3);
If 2. reach the maximal value of setting range, then get into step 7).
7) all angle of pitch values that write down in the logging modle are sent to the calculating mean value module, calculate the mean value x of all radar angles of pitch of record, and this mean value x is sent to output module by the calculating mean value module.
8) output module is given radar 2 with this mean value as the ideal value assignment of the radar angle of pitch, accomplishes the demarcation of radar 2.
As shown in Figure 4; In the foregoing description; Optical axis adjustment control system 1 is based on programme controlled, can adopt LabView, Matlab or C language development, and notebook computer is more more convenient, succinct than industrial computer; The utility model adopts operation (program run) platform of notebook computer as optical axis adjustment control system 1; Because notebook computer does not have CAN (bus) interface, therefore utilize notebook computer to pass through a USBCAN adapter and connect the CAN card, the output terminal of CAN card connects radar 2 through data line.
Like Fig. 5, shown in Figure 6; Among above-mentioned each embodiment; Reflecting plate 31 is L shaped, can adopt the sheet steel of bending to process and also can select for use other metal material to process, and the plane that is used for radar signal reflected requires smooth surface; Its shape can be set to rectangle, and the size of reflecting plate 31 can be confirmed according to distance between radar 2 and the signal reflectors 3.
As shown in Figure 7, among above-mentioned each embodiment, regulating support 32 is a tripod 321; The top of tripod 321 is provided with a sleeve 322, and sleeve 322 inwalls are provided with longitudinal fluting, is inserted with a boom 323 in the sleeve 322; The groove of corresponding sleeve 322, the outer wall of boom 323 is provided with convexity.During use, in the groove of the convexity of boom 323 insertion sleeve 322 boom 323 can be slided up and down along sleeve 322.The top of boom 323 is fixedly connected with a coupling arrangement; Coupling arrangement comprises a L shaped web joint 324 and a leveling board 325; L shaped web joint 324 articulates through a circular shaft 326 with leveling board 325; Can pass circular shaft 326 location through a bolt during use, leveling board 325 tops connect the bottom of reflecting plate 31 through bolt, leveling board 525 tops also be provided with one be used to adjust reflecting plate 31 levelnesss the level meter (not shown).The inwall of sleeve 322 is embedded with a friction block (not shown); Corresponding with the friction block position, be provided with on the sleeve 322 one penetrate its outer wall locked instrument 327, locked instrument 327 adopts a bolt; Bolt withstands friction block; When screwing bolt, produce friction force obstruction boom 323 between friction block and the boom 323 and move up and down, lock boom 323 at a certain height this moment; When unclamping bolt, do not produce friction force between friction block and the boom 323, boom 323 can move up and down.Boom 323 is provided with the scale value of real-time demonstration reflecting plate 31 center height, according to actual conditions, adjust the height of reflecting plate 31 after, utilize locked instrument 327 with boom 323 locking.
Among above-mentioned each embodiment, regulate support 32 and adopt not that the nonmetallic materials of radar signal reflected are made.
Among above-mentioned each embodiment; When signal reflectors 3 is positioned over the dead ahead of automobile; Require road surface between radar 2 and the signal reflectors 3 smooth and do not have other barriers, and also do not have other barriers in the signal reflectors 3 peripheral certain limits, if because around signal reflectors 3, also there is the barrier that other can radar signal reflected; Maybe be when radar 2 receive signal reflectors 3 radar signals reflected; Think it is signal reflectors 3 radar signals reflected by mistake receiving other barrier radar signals reflected, the radar angle of pitch mean value that causes calculating possibly not be to be the desirable angle of pitch, makes the adjustment of the radar optical axis deviation occur; In the present embodiment, there are not other barriers in long 10 meters, wide 6 meters rectangular region around the signal reflectors 3.
Above-mentioned each embodiment only is used to explain the utility model; Wherein the structure of each parts, step etc. that position, connected mode and implementation method are set all can change to some extent; Every equivalents of on the basis of the utility model technical scheme, carrying out and improvement all should not got rid of outside the protection domain of the utility model.
