【従来の技術】[Prior Art]

従来、大型の建設機械では、操作員からの死角が広くて、死角内に人や他の障 害物が入っても、それに気付かずに操作や移動を行った場合、事故が発生する。 このため、従来は、図3に示すように建設機械10の死角、例えば後方の死角 に人や障害物が入っても、それが判るように、建設機械10の後部に超音波セン サ12を設け、人や障害物が検査範囲11に入ったときに、人や障害物からの反 射波を検出し、警報を発して、操作員にその旨を知らせるようになっている。 Conventionally, in large construction machines, the blind spot from the operator is wide, and even if people or other obstacles enter the blind spot, an accident occurs if they are operated or moved without noticing them. Therefore, conventionally, as shown in FIG. 3, even if a person or an obstacle enters a blind spot of the construction machine 10, for example, a blind spot in the rear, the ultrasonic sensor 12 is installed at the rear of the construction machine 10 so that it can be seen. When a person or an obstacle enters the inspection range 11, a reflected wave from the person or the obstacle is detected and an alarm is issued to notify the operator of that fact.

【0003】 また図4は、他の従来例を示しており、この場合には、建設機械10の死角に なる部分に焦電センサ13を設け、発熱体が検査範囲11に入ったときに、焦電 センサ13により発熱体を検出し、警報を発して、操作員にその旨を知らせるよ うになっている。FIG. 4 shows another conventional example. In this case, a pyroelectric sensor 13 is provided in a portion of the construction machine 10 which is a blind spot, and when the heating element enters the inspection range 11, The pyroelectric sensor 13 detects a heating element and issues an alarm to notify the operator of that fact.

前記図3に示す従来の建設機械の周辺監視装置では、通常、40KH2 程度の 周波数き超音波を使用している。しかし建設現場では、各種の建設機械を使用し て、工事を行っており、広範な周波数領域にわたる音響ノイズが発生しているの で、これらのノイズを反射波と誤って検出して、建設機械を誤動作させる。The conventional surroundings monitoring apparatus for construction machines shown in FIG. 3 normally uses ultrasonic waves with a frequency of about 40 KH 2 . However, at construction sites, various types of construction machinery are used for construction work, and acoustic noise is generated over a wide frequency range. Malfunction.

【0005】 前記図4に示す従来の建設機械の周辺監視装置では、焦電センサ13を使用し ており、検出範囲11内を移動する発熱体しか検出できなくて、構造物や人が建 設機械の周辺域に入ったときには、警報を発しないという問題があった。 本考案は前記の問題点に鑑み提案するものであり、その目的とする処は、操作 員の死角に入る人や障害物を確実に検出できる建設機械等の周辺監視装置を提供 しようとする点にある。In the conventional construction machine surrounding monitoring device shown in FIG. 4, the pyroelectric sensor 13 is used, and only a heating element moving within the detection range 11 can be detected. When entering the area around the machine, there was a problem that the alarm was not issued. The present invention is proposed in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a peripheral monitoring device such as a construction machine capable of reliably detecting a person entering a blind spot of an operator or an obstacle.

【作用】[Action]

本考案の建設機械等の周辺監視装置は前記のように構成されており、モータを 起動して、傾斜反射面が投光器及び受光器と検査範囲とに対面している反射鏡を 繰り返し往復回転させているときに、投光器からの光を反射鏡の傾斜反射面へ射 出し、ここで検出範囲の方向に変向させて、検出範囲を照射し、ここに人や障害 物が存在していれば、これに当たって反射する反射光を反射鏡の傾斜反射面→受 光器へ導いて、人や障害物を検出し、このときの人や障害物の方向をモータの回 転角検出用エンコーダにより検知する。また上記反射鏡の傾斜反射面は、往復動 の折り返し点で、投光量確認用校正板の方向を向くので、投光器からの光を反射 鏡の傾斜反射面→投光量確認用校正板へ入れ、さらに同校正板からの反射光を反 射鏡の傾斜反射面→受光器へ入れて、例えば気温や電源電圧の変動による投光量 の変化を検出する。 The periphery monitoring device of the construction machine of the present invention is configured as described above, and starts the motor to repeatedly reciprocally rotate the reflector whose inclined reflecting surface faces the projector and the receiver and the inspection range. While the beam is being projected, the light from the projector is emitted to the inclined reflecting surface of the reflecting mirror, where it is diverted to the direction of the detection range to illuminate the detection range, and if there are people or obstacles there, The reflected light reflected by this is guided to the inclined reflecting surface of the reflector → receiver to detect a person or obstacle and the direction of the person or obstacle at this time is detected by the rotation angle detection encoder of the motor. To do. Also, since the inclined reflection surface of the reflecting mirror faces the direction of the calibration plate for confirming the projection amount at the turning point of the reciprocating motion, the light from the projector is input from the inclined reflection surface of the reflection mirror → the calibration plate for confirming the projection amount, Further, the reflected light from the calibration plate is introduced into the inclined reflecting surface of the reflecting mirror → the light receiver to detect a change in the light projection amount due to, for example, a change in temperature or power supply voltage.

次に本考案の建設機械等の周辺監視装置を図1、2に示す一実施例により説明 すると、図2の10が建設機械、図1の1が同建設機械10の後部の装置取付面 に固定した投光器の投光回路、2が同投光回路1の直下位置に配設した投光器の 投光光学系で、投光回路1からの光が投光光学系2により適当な径のビーム光に 整形されて、下方に射出される。 Next, the surroundings monitoring device for a construction machine or the like of the present invention will be described with reference to an embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. 10 in FIG. 2 is a construction machine, and 1 in FIG. 1 is a device mounting surface at the rear of the construction machine 10. The light-projecting circuit 2 of the fixed light-emitter is a light-projecting optical system of the light-emitter installed directly below the light-projecting circuit 1, and the light from the light-projecting circuit 1 is a beam light of an appropriate diameter. It is shaped into and is ejected downward.

【0009】 8が投光回路1の隣接位置に固定した受光器の受光回路、7が同受光回路8の 直下位置に配設した受光器の受光光学系である。 3が上記装置取付面に固定した反射率の一定な投光量確認用校正板、4が反射 鏡で、同反射鏡3は、校正板3に対してはその前方、投光光学系2及び受光光学 系7に対してはその直下に配設されて、上面が傾斜反射面になっている。Reference numeral 8 is a light receiving circuit of a light receiver fixed to a position adjacent to the light projecting circuit 1, and 7 is a light receiving optical system of the light receiver arranged directly below the light receiving circuit 8. Reference numeral 3 is a calibration plate for fixing the projection amount, which is fixed to the device mounting surface and has a constant reflectance, and 4 is a reflecting mirror, which is in front of the calibration plate 3, the projection optical system 2 and the light receiving unit. The optical system 7 is disposed immediately below the optical system 7, and the upper surface thereof is an inclined reflecting surface.

【0010】 5が同反射鏡3を回転させるためのモータで、同モータ5が反射鏡3を繰り返 し往復動させるようになっている。また6が同モータ5の回転角を検出するため のエンコーダ、9が上記各機器を覆う透明材製保護カバー、図2の11が検出範 囲である。 次に前記図1、2に示す建設機械等の周辺監視装置の作用を具体的に説明する 。モータ5を起動し、反射鏡4を回転させて、投光光学系2及び受光光学系7と 検出範囲11とに対面している反射鏡4の傾斜反射面を繰り返し往復回転させて いるときに、投光回路1からの光を投光光学系2へ導いて、この光を適当な径の ビーム光に整形し、反射鏡4の傾斜反射面へ射出して、ここで検出範囲11の方 向に変向させ、検出範囲11を照射して、ここに人や障害物が存在しているか否 かを走査する。Reference numeral 5 denotes a motor for rotating the reflecting mirror 3, and the motor 5 repeats the reflecting mirror 3 to reciprocate. Further, 6 is an encoder for detecting the rotation angle of the motor 5, 9 is a protective cover made of a transparent material for covering the above-mentioned devices, and 11 in FIG. 2 is a detection range. Next, the operation of the peripheral monitoring device for the construction machine shown in FIGS. When the motor 5 is started and the reflecting mirror 4 is rotated, the inclined reflecting surface of the reflecting mirror 4 facing the light projecting optical system 2 and the light receiving optical system 7 and the detection range 11 is repeatedly reciprocally rotated. , The light from the light projecting circuit 1 is guided to the light projecting optical system 2, the light is shaped into a beam light having an appropriate diameter, and the light is emitted to the inclined reflecting surface of the reflecting mirror 4, where the detection range 11 is detected. The detection area 11 is irradiated with the light by changing the direction, and the presence or absence of a person or an obstacle is scanned there.

【0011】 もし検出範囲11に人や障害物が存在していれば、反射鏡4からの反射光は、 人や障害物に当たり、ここで反射して、回転している反射鏡4の傾斜反射面に入 るが、反射鏡4の傾斜反射面は、受光光学系7の方向を向いているので、人や障 害物からの反射光が反射鏡4の傾斜反射面→受光光学系7→受光回路8へ入って 、人や障害物が検出される。そしてモータ5の回転角を検出するエンコーダ6に より、人や障害物の方向が検出される。If a person or an obstacle is present in the detection range 11, the reflected light from the reflecting mirror 4 hits the person or the obstacle, is reflected here, and is obliquely reflected by the rotating reflecting mirror 4. The inclined reflecting surface of the reflecting mirror 4 faces the direction of the light receiving optical system 7, so that the reflected light from a person or an obstacle is the inclined reflecting surface of the reflecting mirror 4 → the light receiving optical system 7 → After entering the light receiving circuit 8, a person or an obstacle is detected. The direction of the person or obstacle is detected by the encoder 6 that detects the rotation angle of the motor 5.

【0012】 また検出範囲11に人や障害物が存在していなければ、受光光学系7→受光回 路8で受光量が殆ど検出されなくて、検査範囲11に人や障害物が存在していな いことが判る。 また上記反射鏡4の傾斜反射面は、往復動の折り返し点で、投光量確認用校正 板3の方向を向くので、投光回路1→投光光学系2からの光が反射鏡4の傾斜反 射面→投光量確認用校正板(反射率が一定、既知の投光量確認用校正板)3へ入 り、さらに同校正板3からの反射光が反射鏡4の傾斜反射面→受光光学系7→受 光回路8へ入って、気温や電源電圧の変動による投光量の変化が検出される。ま たこの校正板3により、投光光量が確認されて、例えば太陽光のような投光光量 以上の強力な外乱光による誤動作が防止される。If there are no persons or obstacles in the detection range 11, almost no amount of received light is detected in the light receiving optical system 7 → light receiving circuit 8, and there are persons or obstacles in the inspection range 11. I know there is no. Further, since the inclined reflecting surface of the reflecting mirror 4 faces the direction of the projection plate 3 for checking the projected amount at the turning point of the reciprocating movement, the light from the light projecting circuit 1 → the projecting optical system 2 tilts the reflecting mirror 4. Reflection surface → Enters the calibration plate for confirming the light emission amount (calibration plate for confirming the known light emission amount with a constant reflectance) 3, and the reflected light from the calibration plate 3 is an inclined reflection surface of the reflecting mirror 4 → reception optics When the system 7 enters the light receiving circuit 8, a change in the amount of light projected due to a change in temperature or power supply voltage is detected. Moreover, the calibration plate 3 confirms the projected light amount, and prevents malfunction due to strong ambient light having a projected light amount or more such as sunlight.

The reflected light is guided to the inclined reflecting surface of the reflecting mirror → the light receiver to detect a person or obstacle, and the direction of the person or obstacle at this time is detected by the encoder for detecting the rotation angle of the motor. In addition, since the inclined reflection surface of the reflecting mirror faces the direction of the calibration plate for checking the amount of light emitted at the turning point of the reciprocating motion, the light from the projector enters the inclined reflection surface of the reflecting mirror → the calibration plate for checking the amount of light emission. Furthermore, the reflected light from the calibration plate is input to the inclined reflecting surface of the reflecting mirror → the light receiver to detect changes in the light projection amount due to changes in temperature and power supply voltage, for example. Compared to when using it, it is possible to detect people and obstacles that enter the blind spot of the operator more reliably.
