Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the fields of brake control method and crane control technology, and in particular to a brake control method and application thereof in crane operation control. Background Art

[0002] As an important component of mechanical drive equipment, brakes are widely used in various industrial machinery and transportation tools, such as cranes, escalators, wind turbines, etc. Hydraulic disc brakes are a common type of brakes. During operation, they control the input state of hydraulic oil to make the brake components move to control the contact between the friction pad and the brake disc, thereby achieving the function of braking or releasing the brake; that is, the hydraulic oil of the hydraulic system of the brake is input in a positive direction to move the piston of the hydraulic cylinder, so that it drives the friction pad of the brake caliper to press the brake disc (wheel), and then the brake friction pad and the brake disc (wheel) work to generate braking force; when the hydraulic oil of the hydraulic system of the brake is input in a reverse direction, the piston of the hydraulic cylinder moves in the reverse direction, which drives the brake caliper to separate the brake friction pad from the brake disc (wheel) to achieve the function of releasing the brake or reducing the braking force.

[0003] In the practical application of hydraulic disc brakes, monitoring and calculating the braking force is crucial to ensure the safe operation of the equipment. In the prior art, the working state of the brake is usually judged by monitoring the working state of the braked object; and because the temperature, viscosity and defects of the oil pipe will affect the output of the oil pressure, this makes the braking force monitoring of the hydraulic disc brake unstable, and there are few documents that disclose the calculation of the braking force based on the hydraulic oil flow of the hydraulic system of the brake; in addition, the braking force monitoring method of the hydraulic disc brake in the prior art usually requires manual intervention, such as regular manual calibration of the hydraulic system, which not only increases the maintenance cost, but also easily leads to inaccurate data due to human factors. Therefore, how to simply, conveniently and reliably estimate the braking force of the brake through the working parameters of the brake's hydraulic system to quickly judge the working state of the brake and output the braking force data is a research topic with very positive and practical significance. Summary of the invention

[0091] Through the above solution, the data collection of the brake can be made more reliable, the data distortion caused by too many external factors can be reduced, and the reliability of the data as the basis for model construction can be improved.

[0092] In terms of model construction, as a possible implementation method, further, this solution S02 includes:

[0093] S021. The braking force F output by the hydraulic cylinder of the brake is determined by the pressure P in the hydraulic cylinder and the area A of the piston in the hydraulic cylinder. The mathematical relationship is defined as follows:

[0095] Among them, F is the braking force output by the hydraulic cylinder of the brake, P is the pressure in the hydraulic cylinder, and A is the area of ​​the piston in the hydraulic cylinder, which is the flow area controlled by the valve;

[0096] Based on the Bernoulli equation and the characteristics of the hydraulic system, the mathematical relationship between the flow rate Q of the hydraulic oil in the brake hydraulic system and the pressure P in the hydraulic cylinder is defined as follows:

[0097]

[0098] Among them, Q is the flow rate of hydraulic oil in the brake hydraulic system, C d is the flow coefficient, A v is the valve opening area of ​​the brake hydraulic system, P s is the system supply pressure, which is the maximum pressure that the brake hydraulic system can provide, ρ is the density of the hydraulic oil, and P is the pressure in the hydraulic cylinder;

[0099] S022, according to the flow Q and system supply pressure P s , the mathematical relationship of the pressure P in the hydraulic cylinder is expressed as follows:

[0100]

[0101] Among them, Q is the flow rate of hydraulic oil in the brake hydraulic system, C d is the flow coefficient, A v is the valve opening area of ​​the brake hydraulic system, P s is the system supply pressure, which is the maximum pressure that the brake hydraulic system can provide, ρ is the density of the hydraulic oil, and P is the pressure in the hydraulic cylinder;

[0102] Combining the mathematical relationship between the braking force F, the pressure P in the hydraulic cylinder and the area A of the piston in the hydraulic cylinder, the mathematical relationship of the braking force F is expressed as follows:

The area A of the piston in the hydraulic cylinder is determined by consulting the component data of the brake, and then substituted into the mathematical relationship expression formula of the braking force F to obtain the flow data of the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic oil circuit, the pressure data in the hydraulic cylinder and the mathematical relationship model of the braking force;

[0106] When the brake is working, the parameters of the hydraulic oil circuit in the pressure-maintaining and non-pressure-maintaining states are different. When in the pressure-maintaining state, the flow rate Q of the hydraulic oil in the brake hydraulic system approaches zero. At this time, the pressure in the hydraulic cylinder remains relatively constant, and no hydraulic oil flows. At this time, the P measured by the pressure sensor in the hydraulic cylinder is usually equal to the system supply pressure P s That is, in the pressure-maintaining state, the braking force is mainly provided by the system pressure P s and the area A of the piston in the hydraulic cylinder; therefore, the braking force estimation model is defined as follows:

[0124] (2) If the flow rate Q is measured to be 0 in the non-pressure-maintaining state, then:

[0125] F=0.2MN=200kN

[0126] That is, in the pressure-maintaining state, the braking force is 200 kN.

[0138] This solution can make the braking force estimation model more reliable by calibrating and optimizing the braking force model.

[0139] In addition, for the working environment of the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic system of the brake, when the temperature difference is large, the viscosity of the hydraulic oil will change, which may affect the estimation of the braking force. As a better implementation option, preferably, this solution S01 also includes:

[0140] Collect the temperature and viscosity data of the hydraulic oil in the brake hydraulic system, and then compile them into a hydraulic oil data set;

[0142] S02 also includes: constructing a mathematical relationship model between temperature and hydraulic oil viscosity based on the hydraulic oil data set to generate a viscosity estimation model;

[0143] The viscosity estimation model is defined as follows:

[0144]

[0145] Where, μ0 is the viscosity of the hydraulic oil at the reference temperature T0, β is the viscosity temperature coefficient, and μ(T) is the viscosity of the hydraulic oil at temperature T;

[0146] Substitute the data in the hydraulic oil data set to determine the viscosity temperature coefficient β;

[0147] S03 also includes:

[0148] In response to the brake's working start signal, the temperature of the hydraulic oil in the brake's hydraulic system is obtained at a preset time frequency, and then the viscosity of the hydraulic oil is estimated according to the viscosity estimation model. The flow data of the hydraulic oil in the brake hydraulic oil circuit and the pressure data in the hydraulic cylinder are then corrected. The correction formula is defined as follows:

[0149]

[0150] Among them, Q measured , P measured are the flow data and pressure data measured by the flow sensor and pressure sensor respectively; Q corrected , P corrected are the corrected flow data and pressure data respectively, μ(T0) is the viscosity of the hydraulic oil at the reference temperature T0, and μ(T) is the viscosity of the hydraulic oil estimated by the viscosity estimation model at the brake operating temperature T.

[0153] S042. Retrieve the corresponding braking force estimation model according to the brake working state information. In the pressure-maintaining state, import the hydraulic pressure data into the model to obtain the braking force data. In the non-pressure-maintaining state, import the oil flow data and the hydraulic pressure data into the model to obtain the braking force data.

[0154] On the basis of the above, as a better implementation option, preferably, this solution S05 includes:

[0155] Obtain the control command information corresponding to the brake's working start signal, parse the braking action corresponding to the control command information, and combine the brake's working status information and / or braking force data to maintain or update the control command or output braking abnormality information.

[0156] As examples, this may include, but is not limited to, the following situations:

[0157] (1) When the control instruction information corresponding to the brake's working start signal is continuous braking, if the brake working state information points to a non-pressure-maintaining state and the braking force data is in a continuous fluctuation, it can be preliminarily determined that there is a hydraulic oil leak or other component abnormality in the brake's hydraulic system, and the brake abnormality information is output at this time;

[0158] (2) When the control command information corresponding to the brake operation start signal is to release the brake, if the brake operation status information points to the pressure holding state or the braking force data is at a high braking value and there is no decrease in the value, it can be preliminarily determined that there is an abnormality in the hydraulic system of the brake;

[0159] (3) When the control command information corresponding to the brake operation start signal is continuous braking, if the brake operation state information points to the pressure holding state, it can be preliminarily judged that the brake hydraulic system is normal. At this time, the brake control command can be maintained;

[0160] (4) When the control command information corresponding to the brake operation start signal is continuous braking, if the braking force data is in a continuous growth state, it can be preliminarily determined that the brake hydraulic system is normal. At this time, the brake control command can be maintained;

[0161] (5) When the control command information corresponding to the brake's working start signal is to release the brake, if the braking force data remains unchanged or the brake working status information points to the pressure holding state, the brake control command can be updated to allow the brake to re-execute the command in order to eliminate occasional abnormalities.

[0162] Based on the above, the brake control method of the present invention can be applied to the crane brake operation control method.

[0163] In this solution, since temperature, viscosity and defects in the oil pipe will affect the output of the oil pressure, the method of controlling the oil pressure by controlling the flow rate is more accurate; at the same time, this method monitors the size of the brake force by monitoring the changes in the flow rate, and can provide real-time feedback on changes in the brake performance, which can effectively improve the reliability of the brake.
