    摘要:

    航空航天、舰船制造等领域的大型构件通常具有大量V型结合缝,需要通过焊接或涂胶等手段进行填充连接。为实现大型构件结合缝特征的精确识别与跟踪,提出了基于移动机械臂的多站位分段式自动跟踪方法,即沿着缝隙走向顺序拍摄多帧V型结合缝点云图像,基于关键特征点(ISS)与点对面迭代最近点(ICP)配准算法进行点云数据拼接,生成构件局部三维点云模型。基于此,提出一种表面变化特征描述子(SVFD)用于表征构件表面凹凸变化情况,识别出V型坡口点云集,基于对称约束和距离约束获取结合缝特征点。再利用NURBS曲线拟合和等弧长插补方法,获取均匀、离散的结合缝路径点。在此基础上,结合工艺要求,进一步完成结合缝路径点上机器人末端工具(如胶枪)的姿态规划。最后,结合机械臂可操作度与移动底盘姿态约束条件,规划出移动底盘的期望移动路径。搭建硬件实验平台,针对4种不同类型的V型结合缝特征,通过涂胶实验进行验证。实验结果表明,结合缝轨迹提取精度平均误差不超过0.857 mm,移动底盘路径跟踪精度平均误差不超过8.577 mm,能实现对大型构件结合缝的精确提取与跟踪。不仅可以应用在焊接、涂胶等领域,还可以应用于结构特征类似的大型构件的跟踪。

    Abstract:

    Large-scale components in aerospace and shipbuilding industries often feature extensive V-groove seams requiring filling processes such as welding or glue dispensing. To achieve precise identification and tracking of groove seam features on large-scale components, a multi-station segmented automatic tracking method based on a mobile manipulator is proposed. This approach involves sequentially capturing multi-frame point cloud images of the V-groove seam along its trajectory. A local 3D point cloud model of the component is then generated by stitching the point cloud data using a registration algorithm combining key feature points (ISS) and the point-to-plane iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm. Subsequently, a novel surface variation feature descriptor (SVFD) is proposed to characterize surface concavity and convexity, enabling the identification of the V-groove point cloud set. Groove seam feature points are then accurately acquired based on symmetry constraints and distance constraints. A uniform and discrete seam path is generated by fitting these feature points with NURBS curves and performing equal-arc-length interpolation. To meet process requirements, the tool end-effector orientation (e.g., glue gun pose) at each path point is further planned. Finally, considering both the manipulator’s manipulability and the mobile platform’s pose constraints, the desired path for the mobile platform is planned using an equidistant offset strategy. A hardware experimental platform was established, and glue dispensing experiments were conducted on four distinct types of V-groove seam features. Experimental results demonstrate that the average groove seam trajectory extraction error does not exceed 0.857 mm, and the average mobile platform path tracking error is within 8.577 mm, confirming the method’s capability for precise extraction and tracking of large component seams. This technique is applicable not only to welding and glue dispensing but also to tracking analogous structural features on other large-scale components.
