Description

Self-adaptive AGV robot and self-adaptive navigation method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of cooperative robots, and particularly relates to a self-adaptive AGV robot and a self-adaptive navigation method.
Background
An AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) is a Vehicle equipped with an electromagnetic or optical automatic guide device, which can travel along a predetermined guide path and has various transfer functions as safety protection. AGV wide application is in storage transport and manufacturing transport, and comparatively advanced AGV still is applied to dangerous place and special industry.
The conventional AGV frame basically adopts structures such as wheel type movement and belt type movement, so that the vehicle body can freely advance and turn in a narrow space conveniently. However, the traveling and steering modes of the conventional AGV frame are basically hinge-shaft steering, the steering mechanism has a certain limitation on application space due to the fact that the minimum steering radius of the steering mechanism is limited, and in most of limited spaces, the AGV adopting the hinge-shaft steering mechanism is difficult to pass through smoothly at one time and even cannot pass through, so that the AGV is applied to a large problem.
And the mechanical arm of the cooperative robot is a complex system with multiple inputs and multiple outputs, high nonlinearity and strong coupling. Because of the unique operation flexibility, the method is widely applied to the fields of industrial assembly, safety, explosion prevention and the like; along with the research and development of the stretching of the mechanical arm, the structure and the precision of the mechanical arm are greatly improved, the mechanical arm is not only applied in the current field, but also expanded to a plurality of technical fields for directly assisting people to operate, even can partially replace the work of people, and in a plurality of industrial fields including sensitive environments and complex environments, the application of the mechanical arm in cooperation can protect personnel, ensure the production quality, improve the efficiency and reduce the equipment damage. For example, in the field of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), a cooperative mechanical arm can be used in cooperation with an AGV to participate in various processes of production automation, such as stacking, sorting, visual inspection, and the like.
The indexes of the current cooperative mechanical arm, such as speed, rigidity, working radius, load, positioning accuracy and the like, are required to reach higher standards as much as possible, so that the cooperative mechanical arm can participate in the work in more fields. The cooperative mechanical arm generally comprises a plurality of working shafts, and coordinated operation of a plurality of degrees of freedom is realized through mutual cooperation, so that the purpose of accurately controlling the direction is achieved, and finally, operation command action is realized.
Small mechanical arms which can coexist with people and do not need to specially divide a safe working area in the market are roughly divided into two types.
The first type is a small robotic arm based on a stepper motor or steering engine. Because the mechanical arm uses the stepping motor or the steering engine, the control principle is open-loop control, namely if the motor does not reach the specified target due to interference, load and the like, the mechanical arm cannot know the feedback, and therefore the adjustment cannot be carried out to eliminate errors. This completely limits the motion performance of such a robotic arm, i.e. only moving tasks from one point to another can be achieved, and a complete trajectory cannot be followed exactly from three indices of position, velocity, and acceleration. In addition, with additional load, the mechanical arm may have a large steady-state error due to only open-loop control. In addition, due to the adoption of open-loop control, the mechanical arm cannot realize the function of collision detection, so that the mechanical arm can safely coexist with people, the power can be reduced, the size can be reduced to ensure that even if people collide, the mechanical arm cannot cause too much damage, and the mechanical arm is mostly used in the fields of visual inspection of light loads, electronic element sorting, children intelligence development and the like and cannot bear wide industrial and non-industrial automation tasks.
The second type is a mechanical arm called a "cooperative robot". The mechanical arm has high precision and good motion performance, and is more and more applied to various production lines due to coexistence with people. At present, the cooperative mechanical arms on the market all adopt a torque motor or a disc motor. The motor has the advantages of large torque and capability of directly driving the load without any transmission device such as gears, belts and the like. However, the most serious disadvantage of this type of motor is high cost, and the cost and the torque magnitude are not linear. The cooperating robot arms based on torque motors are therefore constrained in size to a range for cost reasons, since once outside this range, it is necessary to carry a much more costly torque motor. Furthermore, this type of design without a transmission system has the significant disadvantage of poor ductility. This is because each motor must be mounted in the joint itself, since there is no drive train, which results in the lower motors bearing the mass of all the higher motors. For example, the low-level shaft motor must bear not only the end load but also the dead weight of the high-level shaft motor. This makes it difficult to increase the maximum load of the robot arm, because the power and the weight of each motor are increased to increase the maximum load, but this results in an increase in the weight of the high motor borne by each low motor, and as a result, a large part of the increased power is still used to bear the weight of the motor.
The conventional AGV navigation technology mainly comprises a navigation scheme utilizing technologies such as magnetic guide rails, laser detection or inertia, and the like, the scheme utilizing the magnetic guide rail technology has extremely high requirements on fields, and the later change and adjustment are extremely difficult; the navigation scheme using laser detection and inertia technology relies on extremely high equipment cost.
Therefore, in order to solve some of the above technical problems, a more reasonable technical solution needs to be provided in the art.

The above-mentioned content explains the composition of the mechanical arm in detail from the structure, the invention has also disclosed the method to carry on the self-adaptation navigation to the above-mentioned robot, mainly include seek way step and processing step after colliding in the operation:
path finding step:
s01: scene recognition and data acquisition are carried out outside the range of 0.5 meter through a depth camera to form point cloud data; filtering the point cloud according to the normal vector direction, and removing all points with the normal vector direction within 10 degrees from the Z-axis direction; the remaining points are sent to an obstacle map of the robot's travel. Therefore, all horizontal surfaces can be filtered, and only real obstacle points are reserved; if the front is a gentle slope, the point of the slope will still be filtered out and not be considered as an obstacle point because the slope normal vector is still within 10 degrees of the Z-axis direction.
S02: scanning and detecting within the range of 0.5 m by using a laser radar to obtain laser scanning points, filtering and screening the laser scanning points, and adding the laser scanning points corresponding to the obstacles to an obstacle map in a noise point mode. The method is specifically divided into the following steps:
1) sequencing all laser scanning points according to polar coordinates;
2) sequentially considering each point according to the polar coordinate sequence;
3) if the linear distance between the current point P and any point Q in M points with similar polar coordinates is smaller than a threshold value, and the included angle between a connecting line from the laser origin O to the P and a connecting line from the P to the Q is larger than a threshold value min and smaller than a threshold value max, marking the Q as an effective neighbor of the P, otherwise, marking as an ineffective neighbor;
4) all points with a valid neighbor number less than or equal to 2 are discarded.
In step S02, the complexity of the algorithm for realizing the laser scanning points is o (nlogn) + o (n) ═ o (nlogn), so that almost no extra calculation load is imposed on the algorithm for the navigation path, and the frame rate of the laser information processing is not reduced.
S03: and according to the coordinate positioning of the obstacle map, the processor designates a new traveling path, and the designated robot advances according to the new traveling path.
The conventional method for controlling the driving motor of the AGV is PI speed loop control, that is, the rotating speed is accurately controlled by Proportional (proportionality) control and Integral (Integral) control and by actually measuring the feedback information of the rotating speed of the motor. This method is based on linear model analysis, however, the actual motor is not purely linear, and especially at low rotational speeds the motor exhibits a very strong nonlinearity due to unmodeled coulomb friction and nonlinear viscous friction. The most typical example is the motor dead zone, i.e. the PWM duty cycle is below a certain value, which does not enable the motor to run. When the ideal proportional-integral speed loop control is used for a nonlinear motor in AGV intelligent platform control, the following problems are solved:
1) the motor runs unsmoothly during low-speed movement, and is easy to start and stop frequently. This is because the PWM value of the speed loop output often cannot break through the dead band.
2) The motor output speed tends to swing between overshoot and non-overshoot at low speeds. This is because the speed loop natural frequency w to damping ratio d specified in the linear analysis is chosen according to the speed at which the AGV is operating normally. However, the low-speed nonlinearity directly causes a large decrease in the damping ratio, and hence the oscillation is likely to occur.
3) When the AGV encounters a complex obstacle, the navigation module usually enables the AGV to run at a low speed, and at this time, if the AGV collides with an undiscovered obstacle due to a sensor blind area, the variation of a method for judging the collision through the current change of the motor is insensitive or even fails due to the low damping ratio caused by nonlinearity. This is because the proportional and integral gains are actually very low at low speed, and the response of the speed loop is very slow when collision occurs, so that the output PWM command has a significant time delay to increase greatly, which finally shows that the current change is slow.
For this reason, a post-collision processing procedure is proposed for the navigation control of the robot.
The processing step is a collision detection control method based on speed loop adaptive gain adjustment, and comprises the following steps:
s04: the gain parameter is dynamically adjusted by directly adjusting the rotating speed of the motor, so that the problem of nonlinearity of the motor in low-speed operation is solved, and the change of the current value output by the motor at low speed tends to be linear.
S05: and filtering the motor current by using a first-order exponential filter to obtain the instantaneous average current I _ avg.
S06: and (3) judging that the AGV collides at any moment when the real-time current | I-I _ avg | of the motor > t is greater, and stopping the movement of the AGV immediately at the moment. And the position of the point of impact relative to the AGV is evaluated by the direction of the different motor current changes.
S07: standing for a waiting time T, and then rotating at a low speed of 360 degrees; if the current value returns to normal, judging that the current value meets the movement obstacle, and if the current value does not meet the movement obstacle, the current value leaves the current value, and returning to normal running; if the current value is increased during rotation, the obstacle is judged to still exist, the obstacle is confirmed to be a static obstacle, and the obstacle is added into the obstacle map.
S08: the processor designates the robot to back up at a low speed, and re-executes steps S02 and S03.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
1. the invention has simple structure, eliminates the arrangement of a large motor, and ensures that the machine body has small dead weight and low cost.
2. The direct current brush motor of the second driving box is arranged at the rear part, and the self weight of the motor does not become the burden of other motors, so that the mechanical arm can realize longer arm extension and larger load compared with the similar cooperative mechanical arm.
3. The invention makes each part relatively independent, and no matter the motor or the gear pair, the speed reducing transmission mechanism or the sleeve shaft machine arm, the arm extension or the load can be further lifted through the change of the lifting power or the transmission ratio, and the production cost is hardly improved, thereby having good expandability.
4. The laser radar and the depth camera are combined, so that the overlapping coverage of different sight distance angles is realized, and the complementation of the laser radar and the depth camera is realized; and by adopting a laser filtering method with O (NLogN) complexity, noise in the laser data is effectively removed, and the interference on an AGV navigation system is avoided. Through the analysis of the motor linear model and the actual nonlinearity, the speed loop gain is dynamically adjusted according to the actual speed feedback, and the smooth and sensitive response of the full-speed section of the motor is realized; after the robot collides, the collision itself is converted into favorable information, and collision points are added into the obstacle map, so that richer reference information is provided for later navigation. .

Example 2:
the embodiment discloses a method for self-adaptive navigation of the robot disclosed in the embodiment 1, which mainly comprises a path searching step in operation and a processing step after collision:
path finding step:
s01: scene recognition and data acquisition are carried out outside the range of 0.5 meter through a depth camera to form point cloud data; filtering the point cloud according to the normal vector direction, and removing all points with the normal vector direction within 10 degrees from the Z-axis direction; the remaining points are sent to an obstacle map of the robot's travel. Therefore, all horizontal surfaces can be filtered out, and only real obstacle points are reserved; if the front is a gentle slope, the point of the slope will still be filtered out and not be considered as an obstacle point because the slope normal vector is still within 10 degrees of the Z-axis direction.
S02: scanning and detecting within the range of 0.5 m by using a laser radar to obtain laser scanning points, filtering and screening the laser scanning points, and adding the laser scanning points corresponding to the obstacles to an obstacle map in a noise point mode. The method is specifically divided into the following steps:
1) sequencing all laser scanning points according to polar coordinates;
2) sequentially considering each point according to the polar coordinate sequence;
3) if the linear distance between the current point P and any point Q in M points with similar polar coordinates is smaller than a threshold value, and the included angle between a connecting line from the laser origin O to the P and a connecting line from the P to the Q is larger than a threshold value min and smaller than a threshold value max, marking the Q as an effective neighbor of the P, otherwise, marking as an ineffective neighbor;
4) all points with a valid neighbor number less than or equal to 2 are discarded.
In step S02, the complexity of the algorithm for realizing the laser scanning points is o (nlogn) + o (n) ═ o (nlogn), so that almost no extra calculation load is imposed on the algorithm for the navigation path, and the frame rate of the laser information processing is not reduced.
S03: and according to the coordinate positioning of the obstacle map, the processor designates a new traveling path, and the designated robot advances according to the new traveling path.
As shown in fig. 16, the conventional AGV driving motor control method is PI speed loop control, that is, the feedback information of the actual measured motor speed is used to realize accurate control of the rotational speed through Proportional (Proportional) control and Integral (Integral) control.
In which proportional and integral controlThe model is as follows: kv × (1+ sTv)/s, where the linear model of the motor is: km/(1+ sTm). Kv is the product of the proportional and integral gains; km is the motor torque constant; tm is the motor constant:
Figure GDA0003530582500000181
tv is generally taken as Tm, so that the pole of s-1/Tm in the motor model is eliminated.
This method is based on linear model analysis, however, the actual motor is not purely linear, especially at low rotational speeds the motor will exhibit a very strong non-linearity due to unmodeled coulomb friction and non-linear viscous friction. The most typical example is the motor dead zone, i.e. the PWM duty cycle is below a certain value, which does not enable the motor to run. When the ideal proportional-integral speed loop control is used for a nonlinear motor in AGV intelligent platform control, the following problems are solved:
1) the motor runs unsmoothly during low-speed movement, and is easy to start and stop frequently. This is because the PWM value of the speed loop output often cannot break through the dead band.
2) The motor output speed tends to swing between overshoot and non-overshoot at low speeds. This is because the speed loop natural frequency w to damping ratio d specified in the linear analysis is chosen according to the speed at which the AGV is operating normally. However, the low-speed nonlinearity directly causes a large decrease in the damping ratio, and hence the oscillation is likely to occur.
3) When the AGV encounters a complex obstacle, the navigation module usually enables the AGV to run at a low speed, and at the moment, if the AGV collides with an undiscovered obstacle due to a sensor blind area, the variation of a method for judging the collision through the current change of the motor is insensitive or even fails due to the low damping ratio caused by nonlinearity. This is because the proportional and integral gains are actually very low at low speed, and the response of the speed loop is very slow when collision occurs, so that the output PWM command has a significant time delay to increase greatly, which finally shows that the current change is slow.
For this reason, a post-collision processing procedure is proposed for the navigation control of the robot.
As shown in fig. 17, Kv and Km are feedback adjusted according to the speed of the motor. The adjustment rule of Kv is Kv0 (1+ max (0, w _ min-w) × p). Kv0 is the gain value of the original linear model, w is the rotation speed feedback, w _ min is the lowest rotation speed which needs to be adaptively adjusted, and p is the proportional value of gain adjustment. Thus, the gain is not adjusted during normal motor speed operation, but is increased proportionally and gradually below a speed threshold w _ min.
The processing step is a collision detection control method based on speed loop adaptive gain adjustment, and comprises the following steps:
s04: the gain parameter is dynamically adjusted by directly adjusting the rotating speed of the motor, so that the problem of nonlinearity of the motor in low-speed operation is solved, and the change of the current value output by the motor at low speed tends to be linear.
S05: and filtering the motor current by using a first-order exponential filter to obtain the instantaneous average current I _ avg.
S06: and (3) judging that the AGV collides at any moment when the real-time current | I-I _ avg | of the motor > t is greater, and stopping the movement of the AGV immediately at the moment. And the position of the point of impact relative to the AGV is evaluated by the direction of the different motor current changes.
S07: standing for a waiting time T, and then rotating at a low speed of 360 degrees; if the current value returns to normal, judging that the current value meets the movement obstacle, and if the current value does not meet the movement obstacle, the current value leaves the current value, and returning to normal running; if the current value is increased during rotation, the obstacle is judged to still exist, the obstacle is confirmed to be a static obstacle, and the obstacle is added into the obstacle map.
S08: the processor designates the robot to back up at a low speed, and re-executes steps S02 and S03.
The control method disclosed in the embodiment has the advantages that:
1. and the superposition coverage of different sight distance angles is realized by combining the laser radar and the depth camera. In addition to serving AGV navigation, the depth camera itself can also be used in more advanced vision systems of the AGV, such as for target tracking.
2. And by adopting a laser filtering method with O (NLogN) complexity, noise in the laser data is effectively removed, and the interference on an AGV navigation system is avoided.
3. Obstacle point cloud parts are extracted from point cloud data of the depth camera, the problem of a blind area of 0.5 m of the depth camera is solved by combining the laser radar, and the complementation of the laser radar and the depth camera is realized.
4. By analyzing the linear model and the actual nonlinearity of the motor and dynamically adjusting the speed loop gain according to the actual speed feedback, the smooth and sensitive response of the full-speed section of the motor is realized, and finally the collision detection at low speed becomes possible.
5. With low cost sensor solutions, collisions of the AGV may not be avoided in actual operation. The method converts the collision into favorable information, adds the collision point into the obstacle map, and provides richer reference information for later navigation.
