Although a few preferred embodiments of the present disclosure have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications might be made without departing from the scope of the invention, as defined in the appended claims.

For a better understanding of the present disclosure, and to show how embodiments of the same may be carried into effect, reference will now be made, by way of example only, to the accompanying diagrammatic drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an impact detection system 10 that includes a sensor unit 12, a processor 14, and a memory 16. The sensor unit 12 comprises one or more sensors and is configured to communicate with the processor 14.

The sensor unit 12 comprises at least one movement sensor, for example an accelerometer, and is configured to detect movement of a structure. The sensor unit 12 is configured to transmit movement data corresponding to the detected movement to the processor 14. The processor 14 is configured to determine whether the detected movement is a result of an impact to the structure based on the movement data.

The sensor unit 12 may comprise a plurality of sensors. For example, the sensor unit 12 may comprise at least one of a microphone, a temperature sensor and a magnetometer, in addition to the movement sensor.

In an example, wherein the sensor unit 12 comprises an accelerometer configured to measure acceleration, the processor 14 is configured to calculate the velocity and displacement of the movement based on acceleration measurements received from the sensor unit 12 and the processor 14 may determine that an impact has occurred based on displacement and/or the velocity exceeding a predetermined threshold. For example, the processor 14 compares the measured displacement to a predetermined threshold displacement and determines that an impact has occurred when the displacement is greater than the predetermined threshold displacement. Additionally or alternatively, the processor 14 compares the velocity of the movement to a predetermined threshold and determines that an impact has occurred when the velocity of the movement is greater than the predetermined threshold velocity.

In an example, wherein the sensor unit 12 comprises a microphone, the processor 14 is configured to determine whether an impact has occurred based on a detected sound data associated with a movement.

The memory 16 stores at least one property of the structure. The memory 16 may store at least one physical property of the structure, such as the at least one of a mass of the structure, dimensions of the structure, a moment of inertia of the structure, a Youngs modulus of the structure, a yield strength of the structure.

When it is determined by the processor 14 that an impact has occurred to the structure, the processor 14 is configured to determine information about the impact based on the at least one property of the structure and the measured movement data.

The information about the impact may be at least one of a force of the impact, the energy of the impact, the position of the impact, the displacement of the structure and the number of impacts. The processor 14 is configured to calculate at least one of a force of the impact, the energy of the impact, the position of the impact, the displacement of the structure and the number of impacts, based on the calculated velocity and displacement of the sensor unit and the at least one property of the structure, and optionally the temperature of the structure. For example, for different materials and temperature of a structure, the applied force required to provide the same amount of movement of the structure may be different.

The information about the impact may include a severity of the impact. Based on the calculated at least one of a force of the impact, the energy of the impact, the position of the impact, the displacement of the structure and the number of impacts, the processor 14 determines the severity of the impact to the structure. The processor 14 may determine a severity score, which may be a function of the velocity of the impact, the position of the impact, the energy of the impact, the displacement of the impact, the number of impacts and the temperature of the structure. The temperature of the structure may be determined based on data provided by the temperature sensor provided in the sensor unit 12. The processor 14 may classify the impact based on the severity, for example, as low, medium or high severity.

The information about the impact may include a probability of damage to the structure. Based on the calculated at least one of a force of the impact, the energy of the impact, the position of the impact, the displacement of the structure and the number of impacts, the processor 14 determines the probability of damage to the structure. The probability of damage may be a function of the velocity of the impact, the position of the impact, the energy of the impact, the displacement of the impact, the number of impacts and the temperature of the structure. The processor 14 may classify the probability of damage as low, medium or high probability of damage.

In an example, the processor 14 is configured to determine a change in expected lifetime of the structure based on the information. For example, the processor 14 may be configured to determine a change in expected lifetime of the structure based on at least one of the probability of damage and the severity of the impact.

The processor 14 generates an updated expected lifetime of the structure based on the determined change in expected lifetime and a previously stored lifetime of the structure from the memory 16. An updated expected lifetime may be stored in the memory 16 based on the change in expected lifetime.

The memory 16 stores a condition of the structure. The processor 14 is configured to determine an updated condition of the structure based on the information about the impact and the updated condition is stored in the memory 16. The impact detection system 10 may be configured to monitor the condition of structure.

The system is configured to output information about the impact. In some examples, as shown in FIG. 1, the system comprises an alarm unit 18. The processor 14 is configured to control the alarm unit 18 to output an alarm based on the determined information, for example based on the severity of impact. For example, the processor 14 is configured to control the alarm unit 18 to output an alarm when the processor 14 determines that the severity of the impact is high or the likelihood of damage of the impact is high. In another example, the processor 14 is configured to control the alarm unit 18 to output an alarm when the processor 14 determines that the condition of the structure is below a predetermined requirement, for example to indicate that the structure requires repair or replacement.

The alarm unit 18 is configured to output an audible alarm, such as a siren and/or outputs a visible alarm, such as a flashing light. The alarm unit 18 thereby provides an indication that an impact has occurred, and where the impact has occurred.

The sensor unit 12 is provided in a housing 20. In some examples, as shown in FIG. 1, the alarm unit 18 is provided in the housing 20.

The impact detection system 10 is configured to be connected to a structure in use. For example, the housing 20 may be attachable to the structure. The structure may be a post or a rail of a barrier system. FIG. 3 shows an example of the housing 20 containing the sensor unit 12 attached to a post 30, wherein the housing 20 forms a cap 32 of the post 30.

In another example, the housing 20 may be integrated with and within the structure. FIG. 4 shows an example wherein the housing 120-3 is integrated within a rail 40 of a barrier system.

In other examples, the housing containing the sensor unit may be attached to or integrated within other structures within a factory or warehouse environment, such as machine guarding or dock gates.

In some examples, the processor 14 and memory 16 are housed in the housing 20, such that the impact detection system 10 is self-contained with the housing 20, as shown in FIG. 1.

In other examples, the processor and memory are located remotely from the sensor unit. For example, in the impact detection system 100 shown in FIG. 2, the memory 112 and processor 114 are provided on a remote server 122 and a communication unit 124 is provided in the housing 120 and is configured to communicate with the remote server 120. The communication module 124 is configured to communicate wirelessly with the remote server 122. In other examples, the communication unit 124 may be configured to communicate with the server 122 by a wired connection. In some examples, the remote server 122 is a cloud platform and the memory 114 is a database in the cloud platform. The processor 114 may be configured to perform any or all of the functions of the processor 14 described above.

In some examples, the processor may comprise a plurality of processors, a first processor being provided in the housing and the second processor being provided on the remote server. The functions of the processor described herein may be performed locally to the housing and/or may be performed remotely from the housing.

In the example shown in FIG. 2, the impact detector system 100 is configured to transmit a signal to an external device such as an electronic device 50. The signal is transmitted from the remote server 122. In an example, the signal comprises the determined information and the electronic device determines whether to display an alert based on the determined information. In another example, the signal comprises instructions for displaying an alert. The electronic device 50 comprises a user interface 52 configured to display the alert. For example, the user interface 52 may indicate that the structure should be inspected or repaired based on the severity of the impact and/or probability of damage. The processor 114 may transmit a signal to the electronic device to schedule maintenance of the structure based on the determined information about the impact and upon receiving the signal the user interface may output a notification to a user to schedule maintenance of the structure.

A barrier system, for example as shown in FIG. 4, comprises a plurality of posts 30-1, 30-2 and one or more connecting rails 40. FIG. 4 shows an example wherein a barrier system comprises one connecting rail 40 and two posts 30-1, 30-2, however in other examples the barrier system may comprise any number of connecting rails and rails. Not all posts may necessarily be connected to other posts by rails, for example in some barrier systems may comprise connected posts and one or more stand-alone posts.

FIG. 6 shows a racking unit 330 wherein a first sensor housing 120-1 containing a sensor unit is attached to a first leg 332-1 of the racking unit 330 and a second sensor housing 120-2 containing a sensor unit is attached to a second leg 332-1 of the racking unit 330. FIG. 6 shows an example wherein sensor housings are connected to two legs of the racking unit, however in other examples, sensor housings may be connected to may be connected to any number of legs and/or shelves of a racking unit or a plurality of racking units.

FIG. 5 is a schematic of an impact detection system 200 formed of a plurality of sensor housings 120-1, 120-2, 120-3, which each house a sensor unit 112, an alarm unit 118 and a communication unit 120. The sensor housings 120-1, 120-2, 120-3 are configured to be connected to a network of structures in a barrier system, for example as shown in FIG. 4. In other examples, the sensor housings 120-1, 120-2, 120-3 are configured to connected to a network of structures in a racking unit. It will be appreciated that in some examples the number of sensor unit housings 120 may be less than or greater than three. For example, sensor housings 120-1, 120-2 are configured to be connected to a racking unit 330 as shown in FIG. 6.

In the example shown in FIG. 5, the communication units 124 in the plurality of sensor unit housings 120-1, 120-2, 120-3 are configured to communicate with the remote server 122 comprising the processor 114 and memory 116. Each communication unit 124 is configured to transmit the movement data to the processor 114. It will be appreciated that a processor may also be provided in the sensor unit housings 120 and in such examples, the communication units 124 may be configured to transmit processed movement data to the processor 114, for example determined information about an impact.

The memory 116 is configured to store information of the relative location of the sensor unit housings 120-1, 120-2, 120-3, the type of structure to which each sensor unit housing 120-1, 120-2, 120-3 is connected, for example a post or a rail of a barrier system, and how the structures are connected.

In a barrier system, although one structure may be impacted by a vehicle, other connected structures that are not impacted but are deflected due to their connection to the impacted structure may also be damaged. For example, if the post 30-2 shown in FIG. 4 is impacted, the rail 40 may be deflected and may be damaged. Similarly, in a racking unit, although one leg of a racking unit may be impacted, other connected structures such as shelves or other legs may also be damaged. For example, if the leg 332-1 of the racking unit 330 shown in FIG. 6 is impacted, the leg 332-2 may be deflected and may be damaged. The sensor units 112 connected to the deflected structures may generate movement data corresponding to the impact.

The processor 114 is configured to receive the movement data and is configured to determine whether a structure has been impacted or whether the structure has been deflected due to the impact. In an example, the processor 114 compares the movement data received from the plurality of sensor units 112 and determines which of the structures is impacted and which of the structures is deflected based on the comparison.

The processor 114 is configured to determine information about the impact based on the received movement data, based on the property of the structures and based on network information. For example, the probability of damage to a structure may be greater if the structure is a standalone post or a corner post of a barrier system, and may be lower if the structure is connected to other posts of a barrier system by rails.

In an example, the user interface 52 is configured to display a map of the plurality of structures. The processor 114 is configured to transmit instructions to the electronic device 50 to display an alert. The instructions include a location of the damaged structure and the user interface 52 is configured to display an alert indicating the location of the damaged structure on the map.

The impact detection system according to the present disclosure may provide improved reliability and accuracy in determining whether an impact has occurred and determining severity of the impact, probability of damage to the impacted structure and/or change to expected lifetime of the structure based on movement data and at least one property of the structure. Maintenance or repair may thereby be scheduled at an appropriate time based on the determined information. The impact detection system may also provide information on probability of damage to structures connected to impacted structures, which may also require repair or replacement. The user may be able to readily recognize which structures in a system require maintenance based on the output of the impact detection system.
