Description

Object detection device, object detection method, and storage medium
Technical Field
The present invention relates to an object detection device, and more particularly, to an object detection device, an object detection method, and a storage medium.
Background
Diffuse reflection type object detectors are widely used in industry, especially in automation equipment, and basically, a plurality of detectors are installed on each equipment or even one equipment. The diffuse reflection type object detector is internally provided with a transmitting tube which can emit a detection light beam outwards, and is also provided with a receiving tube which is used for receiving the light beam reflected by an external object.
The detector with multiple receiving tubes is generally long-strip-shaped in appearance, is provided with a plurality of transmitting tubes and receiving tubes in rows, and can be used for judging whether objects exist in a larger range. The general working principle of detection is that the transmitting tube is intermittently or continuously electrified to emit a detection light beam, the voltage of the output pin of the receiving tube is detected to be compared with a set threshold voltage, when an object appears in front of the detector, the detection light beam emitted by the transmitting tube is reflected into the receiving tube by the object, the voltage of the output pin of the receiving tube reaches the threshold voltage, and at the moment, the detector judges that the object is detected and outputs a corresponding signal.
As can be seen from the above principle, the conventional diffuse reflection type object detecting device relies on the intensity of reflected light to determine whether an object is present, and the intensity of reflected light is related to three factors, i.e., the distance from the detecting device to the object, the reflectivity of the object, and the reflection area of the object. The reflected light intensity is related to these three factors: the reflected light becomes stronger as the distance from the detection device is closer to the same object, the reflected light becomes stronger as the object surface reflectance becomes higher, and the reflected light becomes stronger as the object reflection area becomes larger. The conventional diffuse reflection type object detection device has great limitations in use due to the influence of three factors at the same time, and the limitations include:
first, a detected object closer to a background object cannot be detected. When the background object exists in the usable range of the detection device and is close to the detected object, the background object and the detected object reflect the detection light beams, and the detection device cannot normally work because the detected object and the background object cannot be effectively separated.
② it is not possible to reliably detect low reflectivity objects in a high reflectivity background. When the reflectivity of the background is significantly higher than that of the object to be detected, even if the object to be detected is significantly closer to the detection device than the background, the detection will fail because the actual reflected light intensity of the object to be detected is close to the background.
When the object volume is small, the light capable of being reflected is limited, and the detector may miss detection.
And fourthly, the effective detection distance and area cannot be set. Since the detection device cannot determine the actual position of the object to be detected relative to the detection device, the effective detection distance and area cannot be set.

The object detecting device of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to fig. 1 to 3.
In the present embodiment, the object detection device includes: the device comprises a convex lens array, a transmitting unit, a receiving unit and a central processing unit, wherein the central processing unit is respectively in communication connection with the transmitting unit and the receiving unit, the convex lens array comprises a plurality of convex lenses which are arranged side by side, a plurality of transmitting tubes of the transmitting unit and a plurality of receiving tubes of the receiving unit are arranged on one side of the convex lens array at intervals, the transmitting tubes transmit light rays to the convex lenses one by one, the light rays are converged into parallel light beams by the convex lenses and are emitted to an object to be measured, the light rays reflected by the object reenter the convex lenses, the receiving tubes receive the reflected light rays converged by the convex lenses and send generated detection signals to the central processing unit; the central processing unit receives the detection signals, and calculates the distance between each part of the object to be measured and the object detection device according to the relative position information of the receiving tube generating the detection signals and the transmitting tube transmitting the light, so as to determine the position of the object to be measured and the size of the object to be measured.
In this embodiment, the optical centers of the convex lenses in the convex lens array are on the same straight line, the primary optical axes of the convex lenses are parallel to each other and coplanar, the transmitting unit and the receiving unit are both disposed on the same side of the convex lens array, the central axis of the transmitting tube coincides with the primary optical axis of the corresponding convex lens, and the distance from the receiving tube to the optical center of the convex lens is equal to the focal length of the convex lens.
The transmitting unit also comprises a transmitting control module which is respectively connected with the central processing unit and the transmitting tube. The receiving unit also comprises a receiving and amplifying module which is respectively connected with the central processing unit and the receiving tube.
In one embodiment, all the transmitting tubes are connected with the same transmitting control module, all the receiving tubes are connected with the same receiving amplification module, and the number of the transmitting tubes is 1 less than that of the receiving tubes.
In this embodiment, a convex lens, a transmitting tube behind the convex lens, and a receiving tube beside the transmitting tube are defined as a detecting unit, and the object to be detected is detected by each detecting unit.
In a specific embodiment, the emission control module alternately drives the emission tubes to emit detection light pulses, and at the same time, all the receiving tubes simultaneously attempt to receive the light reflected by the object. When the object to be measured is not placed in front of the detection device, all the receiving tubes cannot receive the reflected light, and the central processing unit determines that the object to be measured does not exist.
When the object to be measured exists in front of the object detection device, the step of calculating the distance between the object to be measured and the object detection device according to the relative position information of the receiving tube for generating the detection signal and the transmitting tube for transmitting light so as to determine the position of the object to be measured specifically comprises the following steps: the maximum distance difference between the transmitting tube which is currently transmitting light and the receiving tubes which are used for receiving the reflected light of the object in all the receiving tubes is obtained, the distance from the part, which is positioned right in front of the transmitting tube which is currently transmitting light, in the object to be measured to the transmitting tube which is currently transmitting light is calculated according to the distance difference, and the position and the size of the whole object to be measured relative to the object detection device are obtained by integrating the positions of all the transmitting tubes.
The step of obtaining the maximum distance difference from the transmitting tube currently transmitting light to the receiving tubes receiving the object reflected light among all the receiving tubes specifically includes: the method comprises the steps of obtaining the position of a transmitting tube which is emitting light, checking all receiving tubes one by one in the transmitting process of the transmitting tube, finding out the part which can receive reflected light, judging the distance between each receiving tube in the part of the receiving tubes and the transmitting tube which is emitting light one by one, finding out the receiving tube which is farthest away, and obtaining the distance value between the receiving tube and the transmitting tube which is emitting light.
The step of calculating the distance from the portion of the measured object located directly in front of the transmitting tube, which is emitting light, to the transmitting tube according to the maximum distance difference specifically includes: and obtaining the intersection point formed by the central axis of the transmitting tube and the object, and obtaining the distance from the intersection point to the optical center of the convex lens corresponding to the transmitting tube through a lens imaging formula according to the maximum distance difference, the vertical distance from the receiving tube to the main optical axis of the convex lens and the focal length of the convex lens, wherein the distance is the distance from the part of the measured object which is positioned right in front of the transmitting tube which is transmitting to the transmitting tube.
The process of detecting the object to be detected will be further described with reference to fig. 3.
When the object to be detected is placed in front of the detection device, part of the detection light emitted by the emission tube will be reflected back to the detection device. (for simplicity of explanation, only the case that the receiver tube in the detection unit on the right side of the object receives the reflected light and participates in the calculation when the object is located on the left side in the figure, and actually the receiver tube in the detection unit on the left side of the object can also be used for receiving the reflected light and participating in the calculation.) assuming that the object is located right in front of the kth detection unit, and the main optical axis of the convex lens of the kth detection unit intersects with the object at the point a, when the point a is irradiated by the parallel light beam emitted from the emitter tube in the kth detection unit and converged by the convex lens, the light diffused from the point a of the object falls back to the detection device. However, due to the converging effect of the convex lens in the detection unit, only part of the receiving tubes in the detection unit can receive the diffuse reflection light in the whole detection device.
Suppose that the vertical distance from the point A to the optical center of the convex lens is H, the distance from the point A to the main optical axis of the convex lens is L, the imaging point of the point A behind the convex lens is a point a, the distance from the point a to the optical center of the convex lens is H, and the distance from the point a to the main optical axis of the convex lens is L. Then, when the focal length f of the convex lens is relatively small and the vertical distance H from the point a to the optical center of the convex lens is much larger than 2 times f, according to the imaging rule of the lens, the following can be obtained:
h is approximately equal to the focal length f of the lens, and the relationship between the values of H, L, H, L satisfies the formula:
H/L=h/l
if the receiver in each detection unit is installed at a horizontal distance l and a vertical distance f from the optical center of the convex lens of the detection unit, only the receiver in the detection unit satisfying the above formula can receive the reflected light on the point A of the object to be measured. In fact, because the parallel light beam emitted by the emitting tube has a certain width and the light receiving surface of the receiving tube also has a certain width, when the kth detecting unit emits the detecting light beam to the object to be detected, a plurality of adjacent receiving tubes in the receiving tube array can simultaneously receive the light reflected by the object.
If in a detection process, when the k emitting unit emits a detection light beam to the point a, the receiving and amplifying module can receive reflected light from the receiving tube in the k + m detection unit, and the receiving tube in the adjacent k + m +1 detection unit does not receive the reflected light (at this time, the receiving tube of the k + m detection unit can be referred to as a critical receiving tube). And assuming that the horizontal distance from the main optical axis of the convex lens of the k + m-th detection unit to the point a (i.e. the main optical axis of the convex lens of the k-th detection unit) is L, and the distance from the main optical axis to the edge of the light receiving surface of the receiving tube of the k + m-th detection unit is L, the vertical distance H from the point a to the optical center of the convex lens of the k-th detection unit is L/H and L/f. Since L and f in the formula are known fixed values, and L can be obtained from the relative positions of the detection unit k and the detection unit k + m, H can be calculated by the above formula, thereby obtaining the distance from the object detection device to the point a of the object to be measured.
According to the maximum distance difference value obtained by reflecting light rays by the point A of the object, the vertical distance from the receiving tube to the main optical axis of the corresponding convex lens and the focal length of the convex lens, after the step of obtaining the distance from the point A of the object to the detection device, the method further comprises the following steps: the emitting tubes are controlled to emit light one by one along the arrangement sequence, and the distance from a series of points on the surface of the object to be measured to the detecting device is determined according to the change information of the reflected light received by each receiving tube when the different emitting tubes emit light, so that the position of the object to be measured relative to the detecting device and the size of the object to be measured are determined.
Specifically, the position of the transmitting tube for transmitting light when the object to be measured is initially detected and the position of the transmitting tube for transmitting light when the object to be measured is detected for the last time are obtained in a scanning and transmitting process of the transmitting tube, the projection length of the object to be measured on the detecting device can be determined according to the difference between the two positions, and the size of the object to be measured can be calculated according to the distance from different points on the object to the object detecting device. The size can be the width, length and other size information of the object to be measured, and the specific information can be determined according to the arrangement mode of the object detection device relative to the object to be measured.
Wherein the step of determining the position of the object to be measured and the size of the object to be measured further comprises: and screening out the object to be measured in the set range according to the position and the size, outputting a corresponding control signal, and ignoring the object outside the set range.
In a specific embodiment, in practical use, the central processing unit drives the emitting tubes in the detecting units one by one in one detecting wheel through the emitting tube control module to emit detecting light pulses, and then finds out the receiving tube in the detecting unit in the critical receiving state through the receiving tube amplifying module in each light pulse emitting process, so as to calculate the vertical distance from all the detected object parts in front of the detecting unit emitting light to the detecting unit. As long as the detected object distance is directly ignored when being larger than the preset value, the purposes of shielding the background object and ignoring the interference detection of the object outside the effective area can be achieved. The same principle can be used to realize the function of measuring the size of the object or screening the object according to the preset size.
Has the advantages that: the object detection device of the invention is provided with the convex lens array in front of the transmitting tube and the receiving tube, and the method of judging the position of the critical receiving tube relative to the transmitting tube is skillfully utilized to convert the value of the distance which can not be directly measured from a certain part of the object to the detection device into the known data of the distance from a certain receiving tube to the transmitting tube which is emitting light, thereby obtaining the position and the size of the whole detected object. The detection method is not influenced by the size, reflectivity and background reflectivity of the detected object, and has the advantages of high detection reliability, accurate definition of effective detection range, capability of detecting and screening the object according to the size of the object, and the like.
