[0074] The present disclosure is described in detail below. In the following paragraphs, different aspects of the embodiments are defined in more detail. Each aspect so defined can be combined with any other aspect or aspects, unless explicitly stated not to be combined. In particular, any feature that is considered to be preferred or advantageous can be combined with one or more other features that are considered to be preferred or advantageous.

[0075] The terms "first", "second", etc. that appear in the present disclosure are only for the convenience of description to distinguish different components with the same name, and do not indicate a sequence or a primary and secondary relationship.

[0076] In addition, when an element is referred to as being "on" another element, the element may be directly on the other element, or may be indirectly on the other element with one or more intermediate elements interposed therebetween. In addition, when an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, the element may be directly connected to the other element, or may be indirectly connected to the other element with one or more intermediate elements interposed therebetween. Hereinafter, the same reference numerals represent the same elements.

[0077] For example Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the absolute coordinate system is defined. When the grader is on the horizontal ground, the left and right direction of the grader is defined as the x direction, the front and rear direction is defined as the y direction, and the up and down direction is defined as the z direction. However, when the grader is driving, it is difficult for the ground to remain absolutely flat, so the grader will tilt, so the direction in the absolute coordinate system deviates from the direction of the grader itself. In the following embodiments, the "front and rear direction", "left and right direction" and "up and down direction" are all relative to the direction of the grader itself, and are defined by the direction of the driver sitting in the grader.

[0078] Based on the above definition, the descriptions of directions or positional relationships indicated by "up", "down", "top", "bottom", "front", "back", "inside" and "outside" used in the present disclosure are all directions defined based on the grader itself. This is only for the convenience of describing the present disclosure, and does not indicate or imply that the device referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, it cannot be understood as a limitation on the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0079] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 5 The present disclosure provides a motor grader, including: a front frame 1, a blade 2, an actuator, a first angle detection component 90, a blade detection component 10, and a controller 11. In addition, the motor grader also includes a front axle steering part 8, a rear axle frame assembly, a rear auxiliary device 9, and a cab 10.

[0080] The blade 2 is mounted on the front frame 1, and the posture of the blade 2 relative to the front frame 1 is adjustable. The actuator 5 is configured to adjust the posture of the blade 2 relative to the front frame 1.

[0081] When the ground on which the motor grader is traveling is uneven, the motor grader may tilt in the front-to-back direction and the left-to-right direction. The first angle detection component 90 is configured to detect a first tilt angle θ1 of the motor grader in the front-to-back direction relative to the horizontal plane and a second tilt angle θ2 of the motor grader in the left-to-right direction relative to the horizontal plane. For example, the first angle detection component 90 may be a gyro angle sensor, a potentiometer, a rotary encoder, or other sensors capable of realizing angle detection. The first angle detection component 90 may adopt a dual-axis tilt sensor to simultaneously detect the tilt angles of the motor grader in the front-to-back direction and the left-to-right direction relative to the horizontal plane.

[0082] The blade detection device 10 is configured to detect posture information of the blade 2 relative to the front frame 1 .

[0083] The controller 11 is configured to obtain the actual slope angle of the blade 2 according to the first inclination angle θ1, the second inclination angle θ2 and the posture information, and to actuate the actuator 5 when the actual slope angle is inconsistent with the preset target slope angle, so as to adjust the posture of the blade 2 to the preset target slope angle. The controller 11 can control the electric proportional valve 12 through the PWM port to realize the action of the actuator 5, thereby realizing the adjustment of the posture of the blade 2. The preset target slope angle can be pre-stored in the controller 11 according to the working condition requirements, or can be input through the signal input interface 111.

[0084] For example, the controller 11 is a computing device with one or more microcontrollers, which reads and loads executable instructions or codes from a computer-readable medium to implement the execution process. The controller 11 can be a controller such as a PLC, a DSP, a single-chip microcomputer, or can also be composed of an integrated circuit.

[0085] This embodiment can, when calculating the actual slope angle in the case of an uneven road surface under construction by a grader, not only consider the posture of the blade 2 relative to the grader, but also fully consider the influence of the road surface unevenness on the actual slope scraping angle, so as to accurately obtain the actual slope angle, and control the slope angle in real time when the grader is scraping the slope, so that the actual slope angle is consistent with the preset target slope angle, thereby improving the accuracy of slope scraping construction, reducing errors, avoiding repeated finishing operations, thereby improving construction efficiency and automation, reducing the labor intensity of operators, and being suitable for complex construction conditions.

[0086] In some embodiments, Figure 2 , 3As shown in Figures 5 and 6, the blade detection component 10 includes: a second angle detection component 101 and a third angle detection component 102. The second angle detection component 101 is electrically connected to the controller 11 and is configured to detect the rotation angle θ3 of the blade 2 relative to the front frame 1, and the rotation angle θ3 refers to the rotation angle of the blade 2 relative to the horizontal reference plane of the front frame 1; the third angle detection component 102 is electrically connected to the controller 11 and is configured to detect the swing angle θ4 of the blade 2 relative to the front frame 1, and the swing angle θ4 refers to the rotation angle of the blade 2 relative to the vertical reference plane where the front and rear directions of the front frame 1 are located. For example, the first angle detection component 90 can be a gyro angle sensor, a potentiometer, a rotary encoder, and other sensors capable of realizing angle detection. The controller 11 is configured to derive the actual slope angle of the blade 2 based on the first inclination angle θ1, the second inclination angle θ2, the rotation angle θ3, and the swing angle θ4.

[0087] This embodiment can comprehensively reflect the posture of the blade 2 relative to the front frame 1 through the second angle detection component 101 and the third angle detection component 102, so that the actual slope angle can be calculated by jointly calculating the first inclination angle θ1 and the second inclination angle θ2, thereby controlling the actual slope angle in real time and automatically adjusting the actual slope angle to be consistent with the preset target slope angle.

[0088] The actual slope angle of the blade 2 refers to the angle between the inclined slope and the horizontal plane after the blade 2 scrapes the slope. Of course, in this disclosure, for ease of understanding, the angle between the projection of the lower edge of the blade 2 on the plane perpendicular to the forward direction of the grader and the horizontal plane is used.

[0089] The method for determining the actual slope angle is described in detail below.

[0090] When the grader is scraping the slope, the ground is usually uneven. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the inclination angles of the motor grader in the forward direction and the left and right direction are θ1 and θ2 respectively, the rotation angle of the blade 2 relative to the front frame 1 is θ3, and the swing angle of the blade 2 relative to the front frame 1 is θ4. The sensor module 6 transmits the signal to the control module 7.

[0091] Figure 3 The moving direction of the motor grader and the spatial position of the blade 2 are shown, wherein the z axis is the direction of gravity, the xy plane is the horizontal plane, and the zx plane is the vertical plane perpendicular to the horizontal plane. When the motor grader is on the horizontal plane, the zx plane is perpendicular to the front-rear direction of the motor grader. When the motor grader is on an uneven road, is the actual forward direction of the grader. for The projection on the horizontal plane xy, for Projection on the original vertical plane zx. Assume that plane ABFE coincides with plane zx, and plane AKJE coincides with It is easy to get that ∠JAK is the actual blade 2 slope angle, and ∠FAK is the blade 2 slope angle when the ground is flat when the grader is on a horizontal plane.

[0092] Therefore, the grader forward direction vector

[0093]

[0094] Blade 2 lower edge direction vector

[0095]

[0096] In order to facilitate calculation, in:

[0097]

[0098] The normal vector of the plane formed by the forward direction of the grader and the edge direction of blade 2 is

[0099] Let x = 1, we can get:

[0100]

[0101] Therefore, the blade 2 slope angle> is the combined plane of the grader and The angle between We can get:

[0102]

[0103] like Figure 5 As shown, the control module 7 compares the actual slope angle α of the blade 2 obtained above with the preset target slope angle Φ, and drives the actuator 5 to adjust the posture of the blade 2, thereby adjusting the actual slope angle α, wherein the preset target slope angle is defined according to the actual construction requirements and transmitted to the controller 11 by the operator through the signal input interface 111.

[0104] In some embodiments, the first angle detection component 90 is disposed on the front frame 1, for example, on the top, bottom, front or rear of the front frame 1, and may be located in the center plane of the front frame 1 along the left-right direction. When the grader is on a horizontal plane, its measurement value is calibrated to zero.

[0105] In some embodiments, the second angle detection component 101 is provided on the blade 2 and is configured to detect the angle between the lower edge of the blade 2 and the horizontal reference plane on the front frame 1. The horizontal reference plane refers to a horizontal plane located on the front frame 1 when the motor grader is located on a horizontal ground. Since the blade 2 needs to perform operations, in order to prevent the second angle detection component 101 from being worn when the blade 2 is working, the second angle detection component 101 can be provided in the middle area of ​​the top of the blade 2 along the length direction of the blade 2.

[0106] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the grader further includes: a traction frame 3, a swing arm 4', two swing frames 4, a left linear drive component 51 and a right linear drive component 52. Among them:

[0107] The traction frame 3 is connected to the lower part of the front frame 1 through a ball joint. The traction frame 3 may be a triangular structure. The front end of the triangular structure is connected to the front end of the front frame 1 through a ball joint. The traction frame 3 may be swung outward from the left or right side relative to the front frame 1 as a whole to perform a slope scraping operation, or the left-right or front-back inclination angle may be changed.

[0108] The swing arm 4' may be a rod-shaped structure, and a plurality of adjustment holes 44 may be provided on the swing arm 4'. For example, five adjustment holes 44 may be provided. Correspondingly, a positioning hole is provided on the front frame 1. When the adjustment hole 44 at the middle position is fixed to the positioning hole, the blade 2 is located at the middle position in the left-right direction. When the adjustment holes 44 at the remaining positions are fixed to the positioning holes, the blade 2 swings in the vertical plane where the left-right direction is located. When it is necessary to adjust the swing angle of the blade 2 in the vertical plane where the left-right direction is located, an initial adjustment may be performed through the matching relationship between the adjustment hole 44 and the fixing hole, and then the posture of the blade 2 may be fine-tuned through the actuator 5.

[0109] Two swing frames 4, each of the two swing frames 4 has a first hinge part 41, a second hinge part 42 and a third hinge part 43, and one end of the first hinge part 41, the second hinge part 42 and the third hinge part 43 are connected to form a radial structure. The second hinge part 42 of each of the two swing frames 4 is hinged to the front frame 1. Specifically, the front frame 1 is provided with a mounting frame 11, and the second hinge part 42 of each of the two swing frames 4 is hinged to the mounting frame 11. The third hinge part 43 of each of the two swing frames 4 is hinged to the two ends of the swing rod 4'. For example, when the shovel 2 is in the middle position, the two swing frames 4 can be arranged left and right, the two first hinge parts 41 can be located at the top, the two second hinge parts 42 can be arranged opposite to each other in the left and right directions, and the third hinge part 43 can be located at the bottom.

[0110] The left linear drive component 51 and the right linear drive component 52 have respective first ends hinged to the respective first hinged portions 41 of the two swing frames 4, and respective second ends hinged to the left and right ends of the traction frame 3; for example, the left linear drive component 51 and the right linear drive component 52 are oil cylinders, the first hinged portions 41 are connected to the cylinder barrel of the oil cylinder, and the swing rod 4' is connected to the piston rod of the oil cylinder. Optionally, the left linear drive component 51 and the right linear drive component 52 may also be cylinders or electric push rods.

[0111] The third angle detection component 102 is disposed at a hinge position between the second hinge portion 42 of at least one swing frame 4 and the front frame 1 .

[0112] This embodiment can drive the traction frame 3 to swing left and right through the left linear drive component 51 and the right linear drive component 52, while driving the two swing frames 4 to swing around the hinge point between the second hinge part 42 and the front frame 1. Therefore, the third angle detection component 102 can accurately detect the swing angle θ4 of the center position of the blade 2 relative to the front frame 1, thereby accurately calculating the actual slope angle, which is conducive to making the actual slope angle consistent with the preset target slope angle.

[0113] In some embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the actual slope angle is the angle between the normal vector of the combined plane of the grader and the front-rear direction when the ground is horizontal. The forward direction vector of the grader and the lower edge direction vector of the blade 2 are located in the combined plane.

[0114] The method for calculating the actual slope angle will be explained in detail below.

[0115] Figure 4 The moving direction of the motor grader and the spatial position of the blade 2 are shown, wherein the z axis is the direction of gravity, the xy plane is the horizontal plane, and the zx plane is the vertical plane perpendicular to the horizontal plane. When the motor grader is on the horizontal plane, the zx plane is perpendicular to the front-rear direction of the motor grader. When the motor grader is on an uneven road, is the actual forward direction of the grader. for The projection on the horizontal plane xy, for Projection on the original vertical plane zx. Assume that plane ABFE coincides with plane zx, and plane AKJE coincides with It is easy to get that ∠JAK is the actual blade 2 slope angle, and ∠FAK is the blade 2 slope angle in a specific case when the grader is on a horizontal surface.

[0116] Therefore, the forward direction vector of the grader is

[0119]

[0120] In order to facilitate calculation, in:

[0123] Let x = 1, we can get:

[0124]

[0125] Therefore, the actual slope angle of blade 2 is > the combined plane of the grader and The angle between We can get:

[0126]

[0127] The actual slope angle α of the actual blade 2 obtained above is compared with the preset target slope angle Φ, and the actuator 5 is driven to adjust the actual slope angle α, wherein the preset target slope angle Φ is defined according to the actual construction requirements and transmitted to the controller 11 by the operator through the signal input interface 111.

[0128] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the grader also includes a traction frame 3 and a revolving circle 9. The traction frame 3 is located below the front frame 1 and is connected to the front frame 1 through a ball joint. The revolving circle 9 is arranged below the traction frame 3. The blade 2 is connected below the revolving circle 9. The actuator 5 includes: a left linear drive component 51, a right linear drive component 52, an oblique linear drive component 53 and a rotary drive component 54.

[0129] Among them, the first end of the left linear drive component 51 is rotatably connected to the front frame 1, the second end of the left linear drive component 51 is rotatably connected to the left end of the traction frame 3, and is configured to drive the left end of the traction frame 3 to move up and down; the first end of the right linear drive component 52 is rotatably connected to the front frame 1, the second end of the right linear drive component 52 is rotatably connected to the right end of the traction frame 3, and is configured to drive the right end of the traction frame 3 to move up and down; the first end of the oblique linear drive component 53 is hinged to one end of the rocker arm 4, and the second end of the oblique linear drive component 53 is hinged to the opposite side end of the traction frame 3, and is configured to drive the traction frame 3 to tilt and swing relative to the front frame 1; the rotation drive component 54 is configured to drive the rotating circle 9 to rotate, for example, the rotation drive component 54 can be a motor-worm gear box.

[0130] In this embodiment, during the operation of the grader, the posture of the blade 2 can be adjusted by the left linear drive component 51 , the right linear drive component 52 , the oblique linear drive component 53 and the rotary drive component 54 to adjust the actual slope angle in real time.

[0131] In some embodiments, the controller 11 is configured to adjust the actuator 5 according to three priority groups when the actual slope angle is inconsistent with the preset target slope angle, and switch to the next priority group adjustment when the actuator 5 reaches the limit position through a set of priority actions and still fails to adjust to the preset target slope angle. The three priority groups include: the first priority, including at least one action of the left linear drive component 51 and the right linear drive component 52; the second priority, including the action of the oblique linear drive component 53; and the third priority, including the action of the rotation drive component 54 to drive the rotating circle 9 to rotate.

[0132] This embodiment can adjust the actuator according to a preset priority order when the actual slope angle is inconsistent with the preset target slope angle. The higher the priority of the driving component in the actuator 5, the more significant the adjustment effect on the actual slope angle, thereby improving the adjustment efficiency and realizing real-time adjustment of the slope angle.

[0133] In some embodiments, the controller 11 is configured to determine that the preset target slope angle cannot be reached when the actual slope angle still does not reach the preset target slope angle after the actuator 5 is actuated according to the three groups of priorities.

For example, the left linear drive component 51, the right linear drive component 52 and the oblique linear drive component 53 perform an extension or retraction action, and the rotating drive component 54 causes the rotating circle 9 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise.

[0136] In some embodiments, the controller 11 is configured to stop the adjusting action of the actuator 5 when the actual slope angle reaches a preset target slope angle.

If the preset target slope angle is still not reached after all adjustments are completed, it means that the preset target slope angle cannot be achieved, and the adjustment process ends.

[0140] If the actual slope angle is greater than the preset target slope angle, the left lifting cylinder is shortened first; when the left lifting cylinder is adjusted to the limit position and still does not reach the preset target slope angle, the right lifting cylinder is extended; when the right lifting cylinder is adjusted to the limit position and still does not reach the preset target slope angle, the inclined pull cylinder is shortened; when the inclined pull cylinder is adjusted to the limit position and still does not reach the preset target slope angle, the motor worm gear box drive will rotate clockwise by 9 circles. If the preset target slope angle is still not reached after all adjustments are completed, it means that the preset target slope angle cannot be achieved, and the adjustment process ends.

[0141] If it is a left slope scraping operation, then compare the actual slope angle with the preset target slope angle, where:

[0142] If the actual slope angle is less than the preset target slope angle, the right lifting cylinder is shortened first; when the right lifting cylinder is adjusted to the limit position and still does not reach the preset target slope angle, the left lifting cylinder is extended; when the left lifting cylinder is adjusted to the limit position and still does not reach the preset target slope angle, the inclined pull cylinder is shortened; when the inclined pull cylinder is adjusted to the limit position and still does not reach the preset target slope angle, the motor worm gear box drive will rotate clockwise by 9 circles. If the preset target slope angle is still not reached after all adjustments are completed, it means that the preset target slope angle cannot be achieved, and the adjustment process ends.

[0143] If the actual slope angle is greater than the preset target slope angle, the left lifting cylinder is extended first; when the left lifting cylinder is adjusted to the limit position and still does not reach the preset target slope angle, the right lifting cylinder is shortened; when the right lifting cylinder is adjusted to the limit position and still does not reach the preset target slope angle, the inclined pull cylinder is extended; when the inclined pull cylinder is adjusted to the limit position and still does not reach the preset target slope angle, the motor worm gear box drives the motor to rotate counterclockwise by 9 circles. If the preset target slope angle is still not reached after all adjustments are completed, it means that the preset target slope angle cannot be achieved, and the adjustment process ends.

[0144] When the grader performs a left-slope scraping operation and the actual slope angle is less than the preset target slope angle, the priority order of adjusting the actuator 5 includes: a first priority, including the right linear drive component 52 extending first and the left linear drive component 51 shortening later; a second priority, including shortening the oblique linear drive component 53; and a third priority, including the rotating drive component 54 driving the rotating circle 9 to rotate clockwise; and / or
