Display control device, display control system, and display control method

1. A display control device configured to display an image for operating a loading excavator, the loading excavator including (i) bucket that has teeth facing a front of the loading excavator and (ii) a bucket cylinder configured to move the bucket, the loading excavator being configured to excavate an excavation surface by operating the bucket forward from a rear of the excavation surface, the display control device comprising:

a processor configured to:

acquire, from one or more sensors disposed at the loading excavator, bucket posture information representing a posture of the bucket,

acquire, from a depth detection device disposed at the loading excavator, topographical information indicating a three-dimensional shape of a construction target of the loading excavator,

based on the bucket posture information and the topographical information, generate a projected image comprising a ground projection figure by projecting the teeth of the bucket on a ground surface that is disposed closer to the loading excavator than the excavation surface,

based on the bucket posture information and the topographical information, generate a front projection figure by projecting the teeth on the excavation surface of the construction target, and

output a display signal for displaying the projected image to thereby enable an adjustment of a position of the bucket by controlling the bucket cylinder based on the display signal,

wherein the ground projection figure comprises a first line representing the teeth of the bucket projected in a vertically downward direction to the ground surface, and

wherein the front projection figure comprises a second line obtained by projecting the teeth horizontally forward on the construction target.

2. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein the front projection figure further comprises a third line that is obtained by projecting the teeth on the excavation surface of the construction target and extends in an extending direction of the second line.

3. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein the ground projection figure further comprises a third line that is obtained by projecting the teeth on the ground surface of the construction target and extends from the first line in a swinging direction of the loading excavator.

4. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein the projected image further comprises a front auxiliary line that extends from the teeth to the second line and connects the teeth to the second line on the excavation surface.

5. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein the projected image further comprises a lower auxiliary line that extends from the teeth to the first line and connects the teeth to the first line on the ground surface.

6. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein the second line is disposed at a front of the teeth and overlaps with the bucket in the image for operating the loading excavator.

7. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein the projected image further comprises a third line that extends from the second line to an outside of the bucket in the image for operating the loading excavator.

8. A display control system comprising:

a loading excavator; and

a display control device configured to display an image for operating the loading excavator,

wherein the loading excavator comprises:

a bucket that has teeth facing a front of the loading excavator, the loading excavator being configured to excavate an excavation surface by operating the bucket forward from a rear of the excavation surface,

a bucket cylinder configured to move the bucket,

a depth detection device configured to detect topographical information of a construction target, and

one or more sensors configured to detect bucket posture information representing a posture of the bucket, and

wherein the display control device comprises a processor configured to:

acquire the bucket posture information from the one or more sensors disposed at the loading excavator,

acquire the topographical information from the depth detection device disposed at the loading excavator,

based on the bucket posture information and the topographical information, generate a projected image comprising a ground projection figure obtained by projecting the teeth of the bucket on a ground surface that is disposed closer to the loading excavator than the excavation surface,

based on the bucket posture information and the topographical information, generate a front projection figure by projecting the teeth on the excavation surface of the construction target, and

output a display signal for displaying the projected image to thereby enable an adjustment of a position of the bucket by controlling the bucket cylinder based on the display signal,

wherein the ground projection figure comprises a first line representing the teeth of the bucket projected in a vertically downward direction to the ground surface, and

wherein the front projection figure comprises a second line obtained by projecting the teeth horizontally forward on the construction target.

9. A display control method for displaying an image for operating a loading excavator including (i) a bucket that has teeth facing a front of the loading excavator and (ii) a bucket cylinder configured to move the bucket, the loading excavator being configured to excavate an excavation surface by operating the bucket forward from a rear of the excavation surface, the display control method comprising:

acquiring, from one or more sensors disposed at the loading excavator, bucket posture information representing a posture of the bucket;

acquiring, from a depth detection device disposed at the loading excavator, topographical information indicating a three-dimensional shape of a construction target of the loading excavator;

generating, based on the bucket posture information and the topographical information, a projected image comprising a ground projection figure obtained by projecting the teeth of the bucket on a ground surface that is disposed closer to the loading excavator than the excavation surface;

generating, based on the bucket posture information and the topographical information, a front projection figure by projecting the teeth on the excavation surface of the construction target; and

displaying the projected image to thereby enable an adjustment of a position of the bucket by controlling the bucket cylinder based on the projected image,

wherein the ground projection figure comprises a first line representing the teeth of the bucket projected in a vertically downward direction to the ground surface, and

wherein the front projection figure comprises a second line obtained by projecting the teeth horizontally forward on the construction target.
