The system obtains the pantograph 3D point cloud data through photography, and calculates the pantograph centerline deviation value through the point cloud data. The system analyzes the pantograph 3D point cloud, extracts the coordinates of the key points of the crook from it, calculates the distance from the corner of the bow to the track center through the corresponding algorithm, thus fits the pantograph centerline, calculates the vertical distance between the pantograph centerline and the track center, i.e. the deviation (offset) of the pantograph centerline relative to the track center, and analyzes and judges the deformation of the crook through the extracted coordinates of the crook. As shown in the following figure.

 

Automatic Vehicle Detection System

Measurement principle of centerline offset of pantograph

 

The testing equipment is measured based on the relationship between the contact pressure of the pantograph on the contact network and the height at which the contact network is lifted as a definite relationship (the only relationship between elastic force and displacement). Therefore, when the pantograph passes through the detection position, the pressure at the contact position can be measured indirectly by measuring the lift of the contact line. This system calibrates the relationship between the contact force and the lift of the contact line at the time of installation, and then compares the pressure on the contact line corresponding to the lift in the calibration data as the contact pressure.

4 Equipment principle advantages

(1) 2D detection technology by collecting the brightness of the surface of the components, color, analysis of its changes to achieve fault identification, judgment, and therefore very vulnerable to the vehicle itself (attached to dust, oil, maintenance chalk mark and non-uniform distribution) and the external environment of strong light interference, resulting in a large number of false alarms.

 

Automatic Vehicle Detection System

Chalk marks in the figure cause identification interference with fastener anti-loose marks or other marks
Strong ambient light causes highly reflective parts of an object to be too bright, obscuring detailed features

 

3D inspection technology by collecting the spatial coordinate points of the contour shape of the components, after calculating to obtain the size, location information, through the analysis of the size, location information to achieve fault identification, judgment, the vehicle surface attached layer (dust, stains, etc.) does not have the size, location and other spatial information, naturally be excluded.

 

Automatic Vehicle Detection System

(2) 2D (flat) imaging itself does not accurately reflect the position of the object far and near (distance from the camera observation point), so when the vehicle components are deformed or displaced in the near and far direction, they are not clearly reflected in the 2D photos, as shown in the following figure.

 

Automatic Vehicle Detection System

Upshot right below coupler (actual detection perspective)

 

Automatic Vehicle Detection System

Shoot at the same level as the coupler (the detection equipment cannot achieve this view Angle)

 

In the partial structure of the hook shown in the figure, the height difference between the bolt cap surface (red frame) and the green/yellow frame plane can reflect whether the bolt is loose or not. The left picture is the actual photo view of the equipment, which is located directly below the hook, from which the height difference between the red, green and yellow surfaces cannot be distinguished, so it cannot detect whether the bolt is loose in the red frame, unless the photo view of the right picture is taken, but the right picture view is the same height as the hook level, which the actual equipment cannot do, so the traditional 2D photo detection technology will cause leakage for such faults.

3D detection technology can measure the red, green, yellow three frame parts of the plane contour point coordinates, and then find any point spacing, surface spacing and even body spacing, and compare the plane height difference of each overtaking detection can detect the amount of bolt loosening.

(3) manual inspection of bolt loosening mainly through the anti-loosening marking line, with the accumulation of running time, the body surface (especially the bottom of the car) will be attached to dust stains, the original bare clear anti-loosening marking line will be covered, 2D detection methods naturally fail, resulting in missed reports. In this case, the necessary wiping must be done even for manual inspection. The figure below shows the effect of actual adhering dust.

 

 

Automatic Vehicle Detection System

The 3D detection technology obtains the coordinates of the contour points on the underbody surface of the vehicle, with its own size and position information, which can be easily compared to get the displacement of the nut.

 

(4) Based on laser Doppler technology, it accurately detects vehicle speed and position, and improves the quality of 2D line image stitching (the basic condition for correct identification). Friends, on the other hand, use conventional rough speed measurement and positioning technology (such as ultrasonic speed measurement, magnetic steel proximity speed measurement, etc.), and the image stitching distortion is very easy to lead to misjudgment and false alarm.
