Detailed Description
The present application will be described in further detail with reference to the following drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the relevant invention and not restrictive of the invention. It should be noted that, for convenience of description, only the portions related to the present invention are shown in the drawings.
It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present application may be combined with each other without conflict. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments with reference to the attached drawings.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, a gas sampling apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a movable body, a sampling part 3, an image acquisition unit 1 and a driving mechanism.
And the driving mechanism is arranged on the main body and used for driving the sampling component 3 to enable the sampling port 7 to be abutted against the gas collection position. The driving of the sampling component means that the spatial position of the sampling component 3 is adjusted by the driving mechanism, so that the sampling port 7 of the sampling component 3 is abutted against the gas collection position, and the sampling port 7 performs air extraction and sampling on the object to be detected through the gas collection position. The abutting means that the sampling port 7 abuts against the gas collecting position on the object to be detected, and a certain pressure is provided between the sampling port 7 and the gas collecting position, so that a certain sealing effect is provided between the gas collecting position on the object to be detected and the sampling port 7, the sampling port 7 can smoothly perform air extraction and sampling on the object to be detected, and the interference of environmental gas is reduced. Wherein, the driving mechanism can comprise a walking mechanism arranged at the bottom of the movable body and/or a mechanical arm arranged at the side of the movable body. In the following examples, the driving mechanism is described as including at least a robot arm.
The sampling component 3 is provided with a sampling end face 4, the sampling end face 4 is provided with a sampling port 7, the specific shape of the sampling component 3 is not limited as long as the sampling component has one sampling end face 4, the sampling port 7 is arranged on the sampling end face 4, and the sampling port 7 is used for exhausting air to the object to be detected.
The image acquisition unit 1 is used for shooting an image of an object to be detected and sending the image to a controller and/or a remote terminal.
The image acquiring unit 1 has a video shooting function, and can perform video shooting on an object to be detected to obtain an image of the object to be detected, the image of the object to be detected may be, but is not limited to, having depth information, and the controller may determine a specific position of a gas collecting position outside the object to be detected in a space through the depth information, and may also be a spatial coordinate of the gas collecting position, where the spatial coordinate may be a coordinate relative to the driving mechanism or a coordinate relative to a certain fixed position in the space.
Specifically, the controller can automatically identify the image to determine the gas collection position outside the object to be detected and the spatial orientation of the gas collection position, so as to control the driving mechanism to drive the sampling port to abut against the gas collection position outside the object to be detected. After the controller determines the space direction of the gas collection position, the motion path of the driving mechanism can be planned, and the driving mechanism is controlled to enable the sampling port to be abutted to the gas collection position on the outer side of the object to be detected according to the planned path, so that autonomous control is achieved.
Certainly, the sampling port can be manually controlled to abut against the gas collection position on the outer side of the object to be detected by a worker, in this case, the worker remotely operates the remote terminal to send a corresponding instruction to the controller, and the controller can control the driving mechanism to drive the sampling port to abut against the gas collection position on the outer side of the object to be detected according to the received instruction of the remote terminal. The remote terminal can be a smart phone, a tablet personal computer, a personal mobile data terminal and the like, can display the image of the object to be detected shot by the image acquisition unit, and can control the remote terminal to send an instruction to the controller according to the display of the remote terminal, so that the remote control driving mechanism drives the sampling port to abut against the gas collection position on the outer side of the object to be detected. For example, but not limited to, there is a direction button on the remote terminal that can control the movement of the driving mechanism, the direction button may be a physical button, or may be a virtual touch button displayed on the display screen of the remote terminal, and by triggering the direction button, a corresponding command may be remotely sent to the controller, so as to control the driving mechanism to drive the sampling component to move at corresponding positions, such as up, down, left, right, front, and back, so as to enable the sampling port to abut against the gas collection position outside the object to be detected.
According to the scheme, the sampling port 7 of the sampling component 3 is used for being abutted against the gas collecting position on the outer side of the object to be detected to perform gas sampling, the non-invasive sampling scheme is adopted, damage to articles and the like in the object to be detected can be avoided, and the problem of cross contamination caused by damage to the articles and the like in the object to be detected is avoided.
As an implementation manner, in order to prevent the sampling member 3 from damaging the object to be detected and to provide a certain sealing effect between the gas collection position of the object to be detected and the sampling port 7, the sampling member 3 is of a flexible structure at least on one side of the sampling end surface 4. Of course, the entire sampling member 3 may be a flexible structure made of, for example, but not limited to, rubber, silicone, or the like.
As an implementable manner, the image acquisition unit 1 comprises a depth camera. The depth camera is used for shooting images which comprise picture information of objects, and each pixel in the picture information corresponds to depth information, which can also be called depth distance. For example, in the example, the position of the zipper of the luggage needs to be extracted and sampled at the zipper of the luggage, the position of the zipper is a gas collecting position, the position of the zipper of the luggage is identified in a visual identification mode, and as each pixel in the image information corresponds to depth information, the coordinate of the zipper is determined according to the depth information of the pixel corresponding to the zipper. For example, with the installation position of the depth camera as the origin of the spatial coordinate system, the position relationship between the spatial coordinate system and the camera coordinate system of the depth camera is fixed, each pixel in the screen information corresponds to the depth information, which is generally the coordinate information relative to the camera coordinate system, and the specific spatial position of the zipper relative to the camera is obtained by converting the coordinate information of the identified target object, i.e., the camera coordinate system of the zipper in this example, into the coordinate information of the spatial coordinate system, in this case, the controller plans the motion trajectory of the driving mechanism according to the specific spatial position of the zipper relative to the camera, so that the driving mechanism can abut the sampling port 7 of the sampling component 3 on the zipper according to the specific spatial position of the zipper.
As an implementation manner, in order to facilitate moving the gas sampling device, the driving mechanism further includes a traveling mechanism disposed at the bottom of the movable body 5. The walking mechanism provided at the bottom of the main body 5 has a plurality of wheels 6 to perform a moving function. For example, but not limited to, part of the wheels 6 are universal wheels. The wheels 6 may be powered or unpowered, and when the unpowered wheels 6 are used, the gas sampling device needs to be manually pushed to move. The gas sampling assembly can be moved independently when powered wheels 6 are used. When the wheels 6 with power drive are adopted, the controller can judge the obstacles on the advancing path by automatically identifying the images and plan the avoiding path so as to realize the purpose of avoiding the obstacles during automatic walking. Besides the wheel structure, the running mechanism can also adopt a crawler belt and other modes.
As an implementation, a mechanical arm, which is part of the drive mechanism, has a mounting end connected to the body 5 and an actuation end connected to the sampling member 3. For example, but not limiting of, the robotic arm includes a first arm 21, a second arm 22, and a third arm 23 that are articulated in sequence. The end of the first arm 21 remote from the second arm 22 is a mounting end which is connected to the body 5, and the end of the third arm 23 remote from the second arm 22 is a performing end, which is connected to the sampling member 3. Generally, the first arm 21, the second arm 22 and the third arm 23, which are movably connected in sequence, may have six degrees of freedom in space to drive the sampling component 3 to reach positions at different angles in space to adapt to different placement positions of the object to be detected.
As an implementation mode, the object to be detected is a case, and the gas collection position is the zipper position of the case. Examples of the case include, but are not limited to, a luggage, a handbag, a backpack, and the like.
As an implementation manner, in order to adapt to sampling of the zipper position, for example, but not limited to, the sampling component 3 is a rectangular component, the sampling port 7 may be a rectangular port, especially a rectangular port in the rectangular port, and the length direction of the rectangular port is placed along the pulling direction of the zipper of the object to be detected during sampling, so as to achieve the most sufficient sampling effect, and reduce the interference of the ambient gas.
As an implementation manner, the gas analyzer is further included, is arranged in the main body and is communicated with the sampling part 3, and is used for analyzing the components of the gas extracted by the sampling part 3. The gas analyzer can adopt various toxic and harmful gas sensors, online gas detection sensors and the like. The toxic and harmful gas sensor or the online gas detection sensor can also use a contraband detection module, and various biochemical gas analysis algorithms are arranged in the contraband detection module, so that the type and the concentration of toxic and harmful gas can be identified and monitored. The gas analyzer is provided in the main body, and analyzes a gas sample collected by the sampling unit 3 to obtain a detection result, which is generally the kind and concentration of the gas. The gas analyzer in this embodiment can analyze at least the types and concentrations of common fumigants (phosphine, methyl bromide, etc.), and industrially common toxic and harmful gases (nitric oxide, nitrogen dioxide, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, combustible gas, organic gas), etc. .
As an implementation mode, the gas analyzer further comprises an alarm device for giving an acoustic and/or optical alarm when the extracted gas analyzed by the gas analyzer has a predetermined component. For example, when the gas analyzer analyzes that some volatile gas, such as alcohol, exists in the luggage, a horn, an alarm lamp and the like arranged on the gas sampling device work to give out sound and/or light alarm to remind a worker that the luggage contains prohibited articles.
