  • Patent number: 11847803
    Abstract: A hand trajectory recognition method for a following robot based on hand velocity and trajectory distribution comprises: sampling and photographing an operator by a kinect camera to obtain hand projection plane data; smoothing the hand projection plane data by moving average, establishing velocity vectors, and processing the velocity vectors to obtain a hand movement descriptor; establishing a hand movement area, traversing hand three-dimensional positions of all frames in an order of sampling and photographing, assigning a mesh where the hand three-dimensional position of each frame is located, and calculating centroid positions of all assigned meshes; establishing centroid directing vectors, and processing the centroid directing vectors to obtain a hand trajectory shape descriptor; and processing cosine values of two angles to obtain a common similarity of the movement descriptor and the trajectory shape descriptor to standard descriptors, and using a standard gesture with a maximum common similarity as a r

  • Patent number: 11692401
    Abstract: A multi-impeller passive-rotating-stirring-type rotary drilling rig for open caissons includes a hollow main drill pipe, a drill bit, four cutting edges, four impeller shafts, four passive impellers and a rotation bracket. Through being uniformly distributed at a peripheral of the drilling rig, four passive impellers contact with a hole wall of a borehole during the drilling process for passively generating relative rotation opposite to the rotation direction of the drill bit, so as to accelerate sufficient mixing of silt and water for forming mud during the drilling process.

Through being uniformly distributed at a peripheral of the drilling rig, four passive impellers contact with a hole wall of a borehole during the drilling process for passively generating relative rotation opposite to the rotation direction of the drill bit, so as to accelerate sufficient mixing of silt and water for forming mud during the drilling process, thus enhancing the stirring effect of the drill bit on the mud. The present invention is able to improve the mud discharge efficiency without adding additional power, thus avoiding the blockage of the mud suction pipe and blockage or even breakage of the drill bit due to poor mud discharge during the drilling process.

  • Patent number: 11364529
    Abstract: A variable-diameter full-support mandrel structure with a slider-type cross section for preventing a reverse rotation of a ratchet wheel includes a movable mandrel segment and a straight shank, and the movable mandrel segment and the straight shank are connected through a quick-disconnect universal joint. A rotating shaft of the movable mandrel segment is provided with a connecting rod mounting flange, a ratchet wheel, a reverse ratchet wheel, a bearing, and a limit clamp ring in sequence. An outer ring of the bearing is provided with a pawl mounting frame. The connecting rod mounting flange and the pawl mounting frame are respectively hinged to a long connecting rod and a short connecting rod, and the long connecting rod and the short connecting rod are hinged to slider components in an outer ring. The slider component has a Z-shaped structure composed of two layers of arc blocks.

  • Patent number: 11331709
    Abstract: An elastic double-support variable-diameter mandrel for bending of an aircraft engine-specific metal conduit includes a frame receiving pipe, an elastic outer frame and an inner hydraulic component. In the inner hydraulic component, an inner chamber of an elastic membrane is filled with a liquid, a tail end of the elastic membrane is provided with an opening, the opening communicates with a first end of a liquid delivery pipe through a pipe joint, and a second end of the liquid delivery pipe is connected to an external hydraulic system. The elastic outer frame is a flexible single unit composed of a tie rod and an elastic mesh structure. The tie rod includes an elastic traction segment, a straight segment and a pull ring. The elastic mesh structure includes wavy metal strip circumferences and anti-fatigue elastic connectors. The frame receiving pipe is sleeved outside the elastic outer frame/inner hydraulic component.

    Abstract: Provided is a mechanical product personalized design pattern matching method oriented to an Internet+ environment. According to the method, a user order is quantified into a feature vector, a mechanical product is decomposed into modules, a historical case library is constructed, and a design pattern scheme matched according to the user order is obtained according to the probability that a user is satisfied when different design patterns are adopted by respective modules of the mechanical product. From the perspective of probability, a personalized design pattern matching method of each design module in product customization design is researched according to the Bayesian theorem.
