Problems solved by technology

2. Intensive parts and various types
3. The operation is complicated and the degree of difficulty is large
However, the sorting of packaged products has its inherent difficulties and limitations: firstly, there are many types and quantities of parts required for packaged products, which makes sorting difficult and labor-intensive. Due to the differences between the packaged products themselves, in order to complete the work , frequent switching between material boxes in different positions will make the operator very tired, so the overall operation of the sorting process is difficult; secondly, in the process of converting to full automation, the parts have different shapes and large quantities. Batches of parts are often stacked and staggered together, and the requirements for mechanical equipment are very strict and complicated. Not only do operators have more operational technical requirements, but also there are many subsequent inspection links, making selection very difficult.

Embodiment 1

[0040] Such as Figure 1A ~ 1C As shown, a schematic structural view of a robot sorting system with a flexible feeding mechanism in an embodiment of the present invention is shown. Figure 1A Shown is a perspective view of the robot sorting system; Figure 1B Shown is the top view of the robot sorting system; Figure 1C Shown is a side view of a robotic sorting system. The robot sorting system of this embodiment includes a robot system 11, a flexible feeding mechanism 12, a material receiving mechanism 13, a vision system 14, a conveying system 15, a grabbing and quick-changing system (not shown), and the robots will be sorted below The various institutions and systems in the system are explained in detail.

[0041] In some examples, the flexible feeding mechanism 12 is used to rearrange the parts and materials accumulated together from the upstream equipment, and convert the 3D posture into 2D or 2.5D limited postures. In this embodiment, the flexible feeding mechanism 12 ...

Embodiment 2

[0059] Such as image 3 As shown, a schematic flow chart of the robot sorting method in an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The robot sorting method of this embodiment can be applied to the vision system in the above robot sorting system, and mainly includes the following steps.

[0060] Step S301: Obtain an image of the part material in the flexible feeding mechanism, and extract the visual information of the part material from the image. Wherein, the part material visual information includes but not limited to position information, posture information, specification information, size information and the like.

[0061] Step S302: Judging whether each part material meets the picking requirement according to the visual information of the part material and determining the type of the end effector of the robot system.

[0062] In some examples, the conditions that parts and materials meet the picking requirements include but are not limited to not stacking parts an...

Embodiment 3

[0067] Such as Figure 4 As shown, a schematic structural diagram of an electronic terminal in an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The electronic terminal provided by this example includes: a processor 41, a memory 42, and a communicator 43; the memory 42 is connected to the processor 41 and the communicator 43 through a system bus and completes mutual communication, and the memory 42 is used to store computer programs and communicate The processor 43 is used to communicate with other devices, and the processor 41 is used to run a computer program to make the electronic terminal execute the steps of the robot sorting method above.

[0068] The system bus mentioned above may be a Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI for short) bus or an Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA for short) bus or the like. The system bus can be divided into address bus, data bus, control bus and so on. For ease of representation, only one thick line is used in the figure, bu...

Abstract

The invention provides a robot sorting system with the flexible feeding mechanism, the robot sorting method, a terminal and a medium, the positions, postures and the like of disorderly stacked part materials are reordered through the flexible feeding mechanism, so that 3D is converted into 2D / 2.5D limited postures, and the sorting is convenient; the position, posture and other information of the part can be accurately and rapidly obtained through a visual system, the robot automatically replaces a proper tail end clamp according to the obtained information, waiting is not needed, and the sorting is efficiently completed; a grating system can be additionally arranged, and whether the parts are accurately placed in a material receiving box or not can be detected.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of intelligent robots, in particular to a robot sorting system, method, terminal and medium with a flexible feeding mechanism. Background technique [0002] In the sorting system of packaged products, there are many types of packaged products and the corresponding parts are small and complex. At present, the selection of parts for different packaged products is completely done manually or semi-automatically. The process is cumbersome, the operation is simple and repetitive, and consumes a lot of human resources. [0003] The sorting of packaged products is to collect the same parts (the same parts of multiple products) into a batch, and select and select different batches of parts according to the number and types of parts required by the packaged products. Features: 1. Different products require different quantities and types of parts. 2. Intensive parts and various types. 3. The operation is complex and ...
