[0034] A control strategy for a dual-motor transmission device of an electric tractor, the control strategy adopts a simulated annealing algorithm, firstly, by collecting the working state information of the tractor, automatically determining the optimal working mode of the tractor, and then by adjusting the power coupling of the PTO drive motor 4 and the power drive motor 5, the tractor works in the optimal state, by calculating the different power couplings of the PTO drive motor 4 and the power drive motor 5, comparing the coupling results, and randomly searching for the global optimal solution of the objective function in the solution space in combination with the probability jump characteristics, and selecting the optimal solution by the probability formula Select a bad solution, expand the optimization range, and finally complete the optimization process of the solution space to find the optimal coupling power.
[0035] like Figure 6 As shown, a control strategy is specified according to the dual-motor transmission structure and working mode of the electric tractor; the driver's operation information collected by the operation control unit is converted into control instructions according to the control rules and transmitted to the drive control unit. The drive control unit selects the working mode of the electric tractor by integrating battery information and vehicle working status, completes mode switching by controlling the corresponding controller, and changes the control current of the motor at the same time to achieve precise control of speed and torque in different modes.
[0036] like Figure 7 As shown in the figure, let T = T0, which indicates the initial temperature for annealing, randomly generate an initial solution X0, and calculate the corresponding objective function value E(X0); let T = kT, where K is between 0 and 1, which is the temperature drop rate; for the current solution X t Apply random perturbations to generate a new solution X in its domain t+1 , and calculate the corresponding objective function value E(X t+1 ), calculate ΔE=E(X t+1 )-E(X t ); if ΔE<0, accept the new solution as the current solution, otherwise follow the probability Determine whether to accept the new solution; at temperature T, repeat the perturbation and acceptance process L times, that is, execute steps 3 and 4; determine whether the temperature reaches the termination temperature, if so, terminate the algorithm, otherwise return to step 2, and finally output the optimal motor power coupling parameters to complete the optimization process.
[0037] When the present invention is implemented, the working modes include the following forms:
[0038] Towing-only working mode: When operating at low power, only the PTO drive motor 4 works, the double planetary gear ring 6-3 is locked, the PTO output shaft brake 9-2 is released, and the output shaft brake 7-3 is released. The power transmission route is: PTO drive motor 4, front planetary gear sun gear 6-1, front planetary gear planet carrier 6-2, PTO output shaft gear 9-1, PTO output shaft 9-3. When operating at high power, two motors need to converge their power. At this time, the double planetary gear ring 6-3 is released, the PTO output shaft brake 9-2 is locked, and the output shaft brake 7-3 is released. The power transmission route is: PTO drive motor 4, front planetary gear sun gear 6-1, double planetary gear ring 6-3, rear planetary gear planet carrier 6-6. At this time, the power transmitted from the power drive motor 5 through the rear planetary gear sun gear 6-7 and the rear planetary gear planet carrier 6-6 converges, and then passes through the drive output shaft transmission mechanism 7 and the high-low speed switching mechanism 8 to the drive wheel.
[0039] PTO output mode only: At this time, the tractor has no power transmitted to the drive wheel. When the low-power PTO power is output, the ring gear brake 6-4 is locked, the PTO output shaft brake 9-2 is released, and the output shaft brake 7-3 is locked, interrupting the power transmission between the double planetary gears. The power drive motor 5 does not work, and the power is generated by the PTO drive motor 4, passed through the front planetary gear sun gear 6-1, the front planetary gear carrier 6-2, and transmitted to the PTO output transmission structure 9, and finally output to the outside through the PTO output shaft 9-3. When high-power PTO power is output, the ring gear brake 6-4 is released, the PTO output shaft brake 9-2 is released, the output shaft brake 7-3 is locked, and the power drive motor 5 participates in the work. The power of the power drive motor 5 is transmitted to the front planetary gear carrier 6-2 by the rear planetary gear sun gear 6-7, the rear planetary gear carrier 6-6, and the double planetary gear common ring gear 6-3, and finally generates power with the PTO drive motor 4, passes through the front planetary gear sun gear 6-1, and is transmitted to the front planetary gear carrier 6-2. The power converges, is then transmitted to the PTO output transmission structure 9, and finally is output to the outside through the PTO output shaft 9-3.
[0040] When the PTO and power output are in simultaneous working mode: the double planetary gear ring 6-3 is released, the PTO output shaft brake 9-2 and the output shaft brake 7-3 are released, and the power transmission between the double planetary gears is restored. The PTO drive motor 4 and the power drive motor 5 work at the same time. According to the output power of the PTO output shaft 9-3 and the power output shaft, the two motors realize power convergence and diversion through the double planetary gear ring 6-3, and the drive control unit 3 adjusts the power matching of the two motors to realize the adjustment of the vehicle speed and the PTO shaft speed.
[0041] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0042] 1. The present invention can realize the independent operation of the PTO drive motor 4 and the power drive motor 5, and realize the convergence and diversion of power according to different working modes, thereby improving the utilization rate of the motor and enhancing the adaptability of the electric tractor.
[0043] 2. The high-low speed switching mechanism 8 can change the transmission ratio to achieve high-speed and low-speed switching, making up for the limitation of the motor in the speed regulation range, and at the same time setting a neutral position for the convenience of towing.
[0044] 3. The designed mechanism uses a double planetary gear common ring 6-3, eliminating the gear transmission required for power coupling in other designs, making the structure simpler and more stable. The two motors are placed in front and behind the double planetary gear coupling mechanism 6, respectively, with uniform weight distribution, which is conducive to the layout on the tractor frame.
[0045] 4. The control system only needs to control 3 brakes and 2 motors to achieve the convergence and diversion of mode switching power and the adjustment of power size, which simplifies the complexity of the control system and improves the stability of the system.
[0046] 5. The present invention adopts a modular design. The double planetary gear coupling mechanism 6, the PTO drive motor 4, the power drive motor 5, the PTO output transmission structure 9, the drive output shaft transmission mechanism 7, and the high-speed and low-speed switching mechanism 8 are respectively separate assembly modules, which are convenient for rapid assembly and maintenance and replacement, thereby improving production efficiency.
