Abstract (en)
This invention relates to a cylinder recognition system, identifying the type of a cylinder prior to a filling process by means of a camera using artificial vision technology and allowing conveying a single type of cylinder to a filling line. It comprises at least one illuminator (8) providing the illumination of cylinders conveyed on a conveyor line to a filling unit in a storage cabin (4); at least one camera (7) generating an image providing the classification of cylinders conveyed to a filling unit; at least one storage cabin (4) in which cylinders conveyed to a filling unit are stopped, their images taken by the camera (7) and the type of cylinder is determined accordingly; at least one control unit (13) in which electric signals from photocells (2, 5, 9) and camera (7) are processed, and accordingly, electronic signals are transmitted to the deflecting piston (10) to classify the cylinders; and at least one operator display (14) by which the type of cylinder is selected and the number of cylinders deflected or conveyed to a filling unit is monitored by the user.
