[0049] As shown in Figure 1 , the electric loader power control device 100 further comprises a power distribution assembly 180, and the power distribution assembly 180 is connected with the main controller 110, the first controller 120, the second controller 130 and the third controller 140 respectively.
[0050] Specifically, the power distribution assembly 180 can adopt a power distribution unit (English name: Power Distribution Unit, PDU). The power distribution assembly 180 is a power distribution device that distributes output current from the automatic force battery 160 to each power consumption assembly, and is a key device that connects power supply infrastructure and control systems and normal operation of all components in the electric loader.

[0053] As shown in Figure 1 , the electric loader power control device 100 further comprises an electrical accessory 190, and the electrical accessory 190 is connected with the power distribution assembly 180 through a DCDC converter 192.

[0061] Among them, the first control instruction includes at least one of the output torque instruction, the rotation direction instruction and the rotation speed instruction; the second control instruction includes at least one of the zero torque instruction, the relay 117 disconnection instruction and the active discharge instruction.
[0062] Specifically, in the operation of the electric loader, the corresponding control instruction is sent to the first controller 120 according to the gear state signal of the gear lever, for example, detecting that the gear lever is in the forward gear position, the neutral gear position or the reverse gear position, so as to control the walking motor 122 to execute the corresponding action through the first controller 120. And combined with the opening signal of the accelerator pedal 112 to control the torque and speed of the walking motor 122 to realize the required movement, thereby improving the utilization rate of energy. In addition, when the state of the gear lever changes, for example, when the gear lever is switched from the forward gear position to the reverse gear position, if the speed of the walking motor 122 is lower than 100 rpm, the switching operation can be directly performed, and vice versa.
[0063] When the walking motor 122 fails, the first controller 120 sends a first feedback signal, i.e. a fault signal, to the main controller 110. In order to ensure the safety of the vehicle, at this time, the main controller 110 sends a second control instruction, which is a power-off instruction of the electric loader, including at least one of the zero torque instruction, the relay 117 disconnection instruction and the active discharge instruction, to ensure the safety of the vehicle power supply.

[0068] Specifically, in the operation of the electric loader, according to the position state signal of the pilot handle 114, the second controller 130 is correspondingly controlled by the control signal, for example, the pilot handle 114 has a first direction of the moving amount, also has a second direction of the moving amount, to control the lifting, lowering, dumping or collecting of the electric loader working device. The main controller 110 sends the first control signal to the second controller 130 according to the position state of the pilot handle 114, to control the working motor 132 to run and the solenoid valve 118 to be powered according to different states of the pilot handle 114, to realize the required movement, and avoid the overflow of hydraulic oil, so as to improve the utilization rate of energy. In addition, when the boom and bucket appear composite action, the main controller 110 collects the position state of the pilot handle 114 should be Z 2 =X 2 +Y 2 , wherein X is the first direction of the moving amount, Y is the first direction of the moving amount, and Z is a preset state value. When the system pressure is greater than or equal to the first threshold value, the working motor 132 idles.

[0071] S50, according to the position state signal of the pilot handle 114 and the pressure signal of the pressure sensor 116, a target response signal is sent to the third controller 140, and the target response signal is used to control the rotation of the steering motor 142 and the power-on of the corresponding solenoid valve 118.
[0072] S60, according to the third feedback signal of the third controller 140, a power-off signal is sent to the third controller 140.
[0073] Wherein, the target response signal includes at least one of the steering motor 142 speed signal and the electromagnetic valve 118 on-off electric signal; the power down signal includes at least one of the zero speed signal, the relay 117 off signal and the active discharge signal.
[0074] Specifically, in the operation of the electric loader, according to the position state signal of the pilot handle 114 and the pressure signal of the pressure sensor 116, the third controller 140 corresponds to the target response signal, for example, when four pressure sensors 116 are arranged on the control oil circuit, the first pressure sensor is located on the first control branch, the second pressure sensor and the fourth pressure sensor are located on the second control branch, and the third pressure sensor is located on the third control branch. At this time, when the main controller 110 obtains the pressure values of the first pressure sensor and the third pressure sensor as L1 and L3, and the pressure values of the second pressure sensor and the fourth pressure sensor as L2 and L4, if L1 is less than the threshold value P1 of the first pressure sensor, or L2 is less than the threshold value P2 of the second pressure sensor, or L3 is less than the threshold value P3 of the third pressure sensor, or the difference between L2 and L4 is less than the threshold value P4 of the fourth pressure sensor, the steering motor 142 responds to the target response signal of the main controller 110 to speed up.
[0075] When the steering motor 142 fails, the third controller 140 sends a third feedback signal, i.e. a fault signal, to the main controller 110. In order to ensure safety, at this time, the main controller 110 sends a power down signal, which includes at least one of the zero speed signal, the relay 117 off signal and the active discharge signal, to ensure the safety of the vehicle power supply.
[0076] Figure 6 As shown, the electric loader power control device 100 further comprises a fourth controller 150 connected with the main controller 110, the fourth controller 150 is connected with the generator 152, the generator 152 is drivingly connected with the engine 154, and the fourth controller 150 is electrically connected with the power battery 160. In this case, the method further comprises:
[0077] S70, according to the remaining power of the power battery 160, a target torque signal is sent to the fourth controller 150 to adjust the charging current of the generator 152.
[0078] S80, according to the fourth feedback signal of the fourth controller 150, a cutoff signal is sent to the fourth controller 150.
[0079] Wherein, the target torque signal includes the engine 154 torque signal; the cutoff signal includes at least one of the zero torque signal, the relay 117 off signal and the active discharge signal.
[0080] Specifically, in the operation of the electric loader, a target torque signal is sent to the fourth controller 150 according to the remaining power of the power battery 160. For example, when the main controller 110 collects that the power of the power battery 160 is less than or equal to 30%, the fourth controller 150 controls the engine 154 to start to drive the generator 152 to operate, and charges the power battery 160 according to the required allowable charging current of the power battery 160.
[0081] When the engine 154 fails, the fourth controller 150 sends a fourth feedback signal, i.e. a fault signal, to the main controller 110. In order to ensure safety, the main controller 110 sends a stop signal, i.e. a power-off signal, which includes at least one of a zero torque signal, a relay 117 disconnection signal and a forced discharge signal, to ensure the safety of the vehicle power supply.
[0082] Optionally, the electric loader power control device 100 further comprises a fifth controller 170 connected to the main controller 110, and the fifth controller 170 is connected to an oil pump motor 172. In the case of adding lubricating oil to the gearbox 124, the method further comprises:
[0083] According to the state information of the gearbox 124, a rotation signal is sent to the fifth controller 170; and the oil pump motor 172 is controlled to rotate continuously until the gearbox 124 stops moving.
[0084] Specifically, when the gearbox 124 operates, in order to lubricate and cool the gear set in the gearbox 124, when the gearbox 124 rotates, the fifth controller 170 controls the oil pump motor 172 to rotate synchronously, so that the lubricating oil can be circulated and sprayed onto the gear set in the gearbox 124. When the oil pump motor 172 fails, the fifth controller 170 sends a fifth feedback signal, i.e. a fault signal, to the main controller 110. In order to ensure safety, the main controller 110 sends a stop signal, i.e. a power-off signal, which includes at least one of a zero torque signal, a relay 117 disconnection signal and a forced discharge signal, to ensure the safety of the vehicle power supply.
