SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING RETURNABLE MATERIAL ON SURFACE DURING DELIVERY Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC B60P1/04 B60S3/04 G08B21/18 

FIELD: mobile machines for delivering material.

SUBSTANCE: mobile machines for delivering material; system for determining the amount of returnable material in a tipping body. System for removing returnable material from the inner surface (46) of the tipping body (44) contains a sensor (55) of the spatial arrangement of the tipping body, a receiving sensor configured to generate perception signals indicating the current profile of the inner surface (46) of the tipping body (44), a sensor of the spatial location of the sensing system and a controller (116) configured to determine the difference between the current profile and the reference profile of the tipping body (44) and determine whether the difference between the current profile and the reference profile exceeds a threshold amount of returnable material. If the difference between the current profile and the reference profile exceeds the threshold amount of returnable material, a cleaning operation of the tipping body (44) is assigned. The controller (116) is configured to generate motion command signals to perform a cleaning operation on the tipping body (44) to remove an amount of material from the inner surface (46) such that the difference between the current profile and the reference profile is less than a threshold amount of returnable material.

EFFECT: increased efficiency.
