Drilling Path Planning of Rock-Drilling Jumbo Using a Vehicle-Mounted 3D Scanner
Achieving intelligent rock excavation is an important development direction in underground engineering construction. Currently, some rock-drilling jumbos are able to perform autonomous operations under ideal contour surfaces. However, irregular contour surfaces resulting from factors such as rock characteristics, drilling deviation, and blasting effects present a significant challenge for automated drilling under non-ideal surfaces, which constrains the intelligentization of rock excavation. To address this issue, this paper proposes a method for extracting contour surfaces and planning drilling paths based on a vehicle-mounted 3D scanner. This method effectively extracts contour surfaces and optimizes drilling paths, thereby improving work efficiency and safety. Specifically, the proposed method includes: (i) the real-time scanning of cross-sectional contours using a vehicle-mounted 3D scanner to construct an accurate three-dimensional point-cloud model and obtain contour over-digging information; the acquired data are compared with theoretical drilling maps in the vehicle’s coordinate system to re-plan the blasting-hole point set; (ii) the development of a volume-based dynamic search algorithm based on the irregularities of contour surfaces to detect potential collisions between holes; and (iii) the conversion of the drilling sequence planning based on the new blasting hole point set into a traveling salesman problem (TSP), and optimization using a Hybrid Greedy Genetic Algorithm (HGGA) to achieve path traversal of all drilling positions. The effectiveness of the proposed method was verified using rock excavation in a certain mine as an example. The results show that the overall recognition rate of the contour over-digging reached over 80%, the number of arm collisions was significantly reduced, and the distance traveled by the drilling rig was reduced by 35% using the improved genetic algorithm-based rock-drilling rig path planning.
