Embodiment 1

[0053] Such as figure 1 As shown, the first embodiment of the present invention provides a method for controlling a large number of robots to stop suddenly, the method at least includes the following steps:

[0054] Step 102, setting a plurality of location points in the working site of the robot, configuring location marks for the plurality of location points respectively, and setting a recognizer for recognizing the location marks at the bottom of the robot;

[0055] Step 104, monitor the working conditions of each robot in the field, and when the fault signal reported by the robot is monitored, judge whether it is necessary to control all the robots in the field to stop suddenly according to the fault signal;

[0056] Step 106, if yes, detect the current position and moving speed of each robot, and assign each robot a position point in the field as a respective emergency stop position according to the current position and moving speed of each robot;

[0057] Step 108, cont...

Embodiment 2

[0081] Corresponding to the above-mentioned first embodiment, the embodiment of the present invention also provides a second embodiment, an apparatus for controlling a large number of robots to stop in an emergency, for implementing the above-mentioned method. Such as image 3 As shown, the device for controlling the emergency stop of a large number of robots includes:

[0082] The configuration module 31 is used to set a plurality of location points in the working site of the robot, configure location marks for the plurality of location points respectively, and set a recognizer for recognizing the location marks at the bottom of the robot;

[0083] The judging module 32 is used to monitor the working conditions of each robot in the field, and when the fault signal reported by the robot is monitored, it is judged according to the fault signal whether it is necessary to control all the robots in the field for emergency stop;

[0084] Allocation module 33 is used for, if yes, d...

Abstract

The invention provides a method and device for controlling lots of robots to stop emergently. The method comprises the steps of setting multiple position points and position marks corresponding to the position points in the work site of the robots and setting corresponding recognizers on the bottoms of the robots; judging whether all the robots in the site need to be controlled to stop emergently according to breakdown signals when the breakdown signals reported by the robots are monitored; if yes, distributing the position points in the site for the robots for serving as the respective emergency stop positions according to the current position and the moving speed of each robot; controlling each robot to move to the corresponding emergency stop position and controlling each robot to sop moving after each robot is moved to the corresponding emergency stop position. According to the invention, when some robots in the site break down, all the robots in the site can be controlled to stop emergently, and therefore the robots breaking down can be prevented from colliding with other robots, and mutual collision between the robots in the site can be avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of robot control, in particular to a method and device for controlling a large number of robots to stop in an emergency. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the Internet of Things, more and more automated robots are involved in the field of logistics and distribution. Automated robots can replace manpower in the transportation, handling, sorting, storage, and packaging of goods, and the service level of the logistics industry can be greatly improved through automated robots. The robot in the logistics industry has become the second largest robot application field after the automobile industry. [0003] In the prior art, when using robots to transport, sort and pack items in the logistics distribution center, a large number of robots are usually set up in the field, and a fixed moving route is set for each robot, and the robots are controlled to move along their respective moving routes, so as ...
