[0055] Each subsystem is described below.

[0056] (1) Sensor subsystem

[0058] The temperature transmitter, level transmitter, main pump pressure transmitter, auxiliary pump pressure transmitter, main pressure switch, and auxiliary pressure switch of the hydraulic module are used to protect and monitor the hydraulic module, which includes the main pump and auxiliary pump for providing hydraulic power source for the entire system.

[0059] Protect and monitor the low limit sensor, high limit sensor, conveyor arm analog position encoder for conveyor arm, and protect and monitor the trolley analog position encoder for trolley.

[0060] The temperature transmitter, level transmitter, main pump pressure transmitter, auxiliary pump pressure transmitter, main pressure switch, and auxiliary pressure switch can be connected to the main control cabinet subsystem. In this embodiment of the present invention, the main pump and auxiliary pump refer to hydraulic pumps, which provide the system with hydraulic power. The main pump also has a soft-start function. The temperature transmitter, level transmitter, main pressure switch, and auxiliary pressure switch are used to monitor the hydraulic oil status within the hydraulic module's reservoir. Specifically, the temperature transmitter monitors and provides feedback on temperature information, allowing the system to determine the operating status of the heat dissipation module and make appropriate adjustments, such as setting the heat dissipation module's start and stop temperatures and setting the system's high-temperature alarm temperature, thereby controlling the heat dissipation of the hydraulic module. The heat dissipation module includes a hydraulic oil circulation pump and two air-cooled cooling fans. The hydraulic oil circulation pump is used to circulate, filter, and cool the hydraulic oil within the hydraulic module, repeatedly circulating it to ensure the cleanliness and temperature of the hydraulic oil and maintain normal operation of the hydraulic module. The two air-cooled cooling fans are specifically used for heat dissipation. The liquid level transmitter is used to monitor and feedback the liquid level information of the hydraulic oil, so that the system can make corresponding adjustments to the system oil level related parameters, such as setting high oil level, low oil level, and very low oil level. The high oil level is used to feedback the highest oil level required by the system, the low oil level is used to feedback the bottom limit of the oil level required by the system, and the very low oil level is used to stop the main pump and auxiliary pump. The main pressure switch is used to monitor the oil impurities in the main pump and auxiliary pump, and the system prompts its filter replacement information through the HMI configuration screen of the software subsystem; the auxiliary pressure switch is used to monitor the oil impurities in the heat dissipation module, and the system prompts its filter replacement information through the HMI configuration screen. The main pump pressure transmitter and the auxiliary pump pressure transmitter respectively monitor the hydraulic output pressure of the main pump and auxiliary pump, and judge the pressure output capacity of the main pump and auxiliary pump respectively through the HMI configuration screen.

[0061] Among them, the low limit sensor, high limit sensor, conveyor arm analog position encoder, and cart analog position encoder can be connected to the conveyor arm transfer box system or the base transfer box system. The low limit sensor, high limit sensor, and conveyor arm analog position encoder are used to protect and monitor the position information of the conveyor arm. For example, by setting the highest bit of the conveyor arm movement process and using the high limit sensor to monitor the position of the conveyor arm in real time, the relevant alarm or protection device can be activated when it reaches the highest bit. The cart analog position encoder is used to protect and monitor the position information of the cart; similarly, some threshold parameters can be set for the relevant positions during the movement of the cart, and the position information of the cart can be monitored in real time through the cart analog position encoder. When the corresponding threshold parameters are reached, the relevant alarm or protection device can be activated. The specific details will not be explained here.

[0062] (2) Main control cabinet system

[0063] The master control cabinet subsystem in this embodiment is divided into a power side and a process control side. In practice, the master control cabinet subsystem can be represented by the "Main Site" symbol, which can be CC. "Main Site" stands for "master site" and "CC" stands for "master control cabinet." Furthermore, an IP address must be set for communication. For example, the IP address can be 192.168.0.1.

[0064] The power side corresponds to the hydraulic module. In an optional embodiment, the power side of the main control cabinet subsystem is configured with:

[0065] The main motor control circuit for driving the main pump, the auxiliary motor control circuit for driving the auxiliary pump, the heat dissipation module control circuit for driving the hydraulic oil circulation pump and two air cooling fans, the process control side DC power supply circuit and the lighting circuit.

[0066] All motor circuits are equipped with rotation direction protection and overload protection circuits. The power side of the main control cabinet subsystem is capable of soft-starting the main motor and driving other motors. The specific circuit structures of the control circuits, DC power supply circuits, and lighting circuits can be designed based on existing circuit structures and scenario requirements, and will not be explained in detail here.

[0067] The process control side corresponds to the sensor subsystem, the base transfer box system and the conveyor arm transfer box system. The HMI module in the process control side may include a touch screen that can display the status related to system protection monitoring and action. It can be understood that the various state parameters of collection and monitoring or the related parameters of setting and output in the system of the embodiment of the present invention can be displayed on the touch screen, and the functions of parameter input, output and display can be realized by providing a human-computer interaction interface and a corresponding operation module. The HMI module of the embodiment of the present invention can realize personalized and convenient applications by self-designing the display interface on the basis of existing technology. In addition, in actual use, the HMI module also needs to be configured with a corresponding IP address, such as 192.168.0.10, etc.

[0068] In an optional embodiment, in addition to the HMI module, the process control side of the main control cabinet subsystem is also configured with:

[0069] Profinet bus switch, RS485 bus module, programmable logic controller PLC, main control cabinet subsystem analog input module, main control cabinet subsystem analog output module, main control cabinet subsystem digital input module and main control cabinet subsystem digital output module.

[0070] Regarding the functions of the above-mentioned components on the process control side, please understand them in conjunction with the functions of existing devices and will not be explained in detail here.

[0071] In addition to the above components, the process control side of the main control cabinet subsystem is also equipped with:

[0072] Main relief valve, auxiliary relief valve, main proportional flow valve, auxiliary proportional flow valve, main proportional pressure valve, auxiliary proportional pressure valve and three-color warning light for monitoring and displaying system status;

[0073] Among them, the main relief valve and the auxiliary relief valve are used to cut off the hydraulic source provided by the main pump and the auxiliary pump to the subsequent valve group respectively; the main proportional flow valve and the main proportional pressure valve are used to control the flow and pressure of the main pump hydraulic circuit respectively, which are used to control the movement process of the conveying arm, and have high speed, high stability and high load capacity when controlling the upward and downward movement of the conveying arm. Specifically, by increasing the pressure output of the main proportional pressure valve, high load capacity can be achieved, and by increasing the flow output of the main proportional flow valve, high speed movement capacity can be achieved, and then high stability capacity can be achieved through coordinated distribution between the two proportional valves; the auxiliary proportional flow valve and the auxiliary proportional pressure valve are used to control the flow and pressure of the auxiliary pump hydraulic circuit respectively, which are used to control the movement process of the cart, and have high speed, high stability and high load capacity when controlling the forward and backward movement of the cart. Similar to the above, specifically, by increasing the pressure output of the auxiliary proportional pressure valve, high load capacity can be achieved, by increasing the flow output of the auxiliary proportional flow valve, high-speed movement capability can be achieved, and then by the coordinated distribution between the two proportional valves, high stability capability can be achieved; the three-color warning light includes a red warning light, a yellow warning light, a green warning light and a buzzer; the red warning light, the yellow warning light and the green warning light, when lit, respectively indicate shutdown, warning, and system operation, and the buzzer provides sound support for system operation warnings.

[0074] Among them, it should be supplemented that the programmable logic controller PLC of the embodiment of the present invention has the functions of console control and wireless remote control of the equipment, that is, it can accept the operation control instructions of the console subsystem or the wireless operation subsystem and realize the corresponding control output; the programmable logic controller PLC also has the function of adjusting the flow and pressure of the hydraulic module, which is achieved by controlling the main proportional flow valve, the auxiliary proportional flow valve, the main proportional pressure valve, and the auxiliary proportional pressure valve; specifically, after the programmable logic controller PLC receives the operation instruction, it distributes the pressure and flow of the catwalk action through the main proportional flow valve, the auxiliary proportional flow valve, the main proportional pressure valve, and the auxiliary proportional pressure valve. The distributed flow and pressure drive the corresponding action to be executed, so that the catwalk can achieve smooth, high-speed, and heavy-load back and forth movement within 80 seconds, so that the programmable logic controller PLC has the ability to control the smooth operation of the equipment, meet the production operation rhythm, and meet the unloading under specific conditions.

[0075] To understand the connection between the main control cabinet subsystem and related components, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the connection relationship between the main control cabinet subsystem and related components in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0076] Figure 2 Among them, the main pump pressure transmitter, auxiliary pump pressure transmitter, temperature transmitter, liquid level transmitter, main pressure switch and auxiliary pressure switch belong to the sensor subsystem.

[0077] To simplify, Figure 2 The power side of the central control cabinet subsystem only shows the main motor control circuit, auxiliary motor control circuit, and cooling module control circuit. The cooling module's dual air-cooling fans include air-cooling fan 1 and air-cooling fan 2; the cooling module control circuit includes the hydraulic oil circulation pump control circuit, air-cooling fan 1 control circuit, and air-cooling fan 2 control circuit.

[0078] To simplify, Figure 2 The process control side of the central control cabinet subsystem only shows the HMI module, main relief valve, auxiliary relief valve, main proportional flow valve, auxiliary proportional flow valve, main proportional pressure valve, auxiliary proportional pressure valve and three-color warning light.

Port b is used to receive operation control instructions, where the operation control instructions can come from the operation console subsystem or the wireless operation subsystem.

[0080] Figure 2 Components not shown in the main control cabinet subsystem are integrated inside the main control cabinet subsystem and will not be described in detail here.

[0081] (3) Base transfer box system

[0082] In practice, the base transfer box system can be represented by Base IO, and the corresponding symbol is BTB, where Base IO represents the name of the base transfer box in the software system, and BTB is the abbreviation of the base transfer box. Similarly, the base transfer box system requires a corresponding IP address to enable communication, such as 192.168.0.2.

[0083] In an optional embodiment, the base transfer box system includes:

[0084] Base transfer box system hydraulic solenoid valve group, base transfer box system Profinet-IO interface module and base transfer box system digital output module.

[0085] The functions of the Profinet-IO interface module and the digital output module of the base transfer box system should be understood in conjunction with the functions of existing devices and will not be explained in detail here.

[0086] Among them, the hydraulic solenoid valve group of the base transfer box system includes: left pipe rack lifting valve, right pipe rack lifting valve, left pipe rack lowering valve, right pipe rack lowering valve, left upper material lifting valve, right upper material lifting valve, left upper material lowering valve, right upper material lowering valve, left auxiliary discharge lifting valve, right auxiliary discharge lifting valve, left auxiliary discharge lowering valve, right auxiliary discharge lowering valve, conveying arm lifting valve, conveying arm lowering valve and winch variable exhaust valve.

[0087] Specifically, each hydraulic solenoid valve in the hydraulic solenoid valve group of the base transfer box system can be opened or closed under the corresponding operation control command. In the open state, each hydraulic solenoid valve is used to drive the corresponding mechanical components to move. The specific functions include:

[0088] The left pipe rack raising valve controls the upward movement of the left pipe rack; the right pipe rack raising valve controls the upward movement of the right pipe rack; the left pipe rack lowering valve controls the downward movement of the left pipe rack; and the right pipe rack lowering valve controls the downward movement of the right pipe rack. The left loading valve controls the upward movement of the left loading device; the right loading valve controls the upward movement of the right loading device; the left loading valve lowers the downward movement of the left loading device; and the right loading valve lowers the downward movement of the right loading device. The left auxiliary discharge valve controls the upward movement of the left auxiliary discharge device; the right auxiliary discharge valve controls the upward movement of the right auxiliary discharge device; the left auxiliary discharge valve lowers the downward movement of the left auxiliary discharge device; and the right auxiliary discharge valve lowers the downward movement of the right auxiliary discharge device. The conveyor arm raising valve controls the upward movement of the conveyor arm; and the conveyor arm lowering valve controls the downward movement of the conveyor arm. The winch displacement control valve controls the winch cable displacement change. When the catwalk requires high-load movement according to operating instructions, the system increases the winch load by changing the winch displacement. Those skilled in the art will understand that the above-mentioned mechanical components are part of the mechanical structure of the base and are integrated with the action cylinder and installed on the base of the base. The mechanical structure of the base can provide good stability for the catwalk system and provide stable support for the conveying arm up and down. The embodiment of the present invention integrates the above-mentioned mechanical actions into a base transfer box system, realizing modular customization.

[0089] Furthermore, in an optional embodiment, the low limit sensor and the conveying arm analog position encoder can be connected to the base transfer box system.

[0090] Moreover, the base transfer box system can be connected to the operating console subsystem, and receive the operation control instructions sent by the operating console subsystem through the corresponding Profinet network bus. The programmable logic controller PLC of the main station issues action instructions to control the opening and closing of the above-mentioned hydraulic solenoid valves, thereby achieving the purpose of driving the corresponding mechanical components to move.

[0091] For details about the components included and connected to the base transfer box system, please refer to Figure 3 As shown, the specific description will not be repeated here. Figure 3 Only the individual hydraulic solenoid valves of the hydraulic solenoid valve group of the base transfer box system, as well as the low limit sensor and the conveying arm analog position encoder are shown. Figure 3In the figure, port c is connected to port a; port d is connected to the operating table subsystem; and port e is connected to the conveyor arm transfer box system.

[0092] Regarding the rising and falling motion process of the conveying arm in the embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 understand, Figure 4 A schematic curve diagram of the conveying arm rise of the variable speed hydraulically driven double-rope power catwalk electric control system provided by an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 5 A schematic curve diagram of the conveying arm descent of the variable speed hydraulically driven double-rope power catwalk electronic control system provided in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0093] See Figure 4 , the rising curve shows the process of the conveyor arm rising and the process of the system controlling the hydraulic module. Figure 4 The conveyor arm moves from left to right, starting from position 0 and linearly accelerating until the speed reaches acceleration target 1, achieving maximum speed. It then runs smoothly until it reaches deceleration point 1, where it begins linear deceleration so that the speed reaches deceleration target 2. This allows it to respond to collisions at a smaller and smoother inflection point speed at the inflection point, reducing collision damage to mechanical components. After the collision, it begins linear acceleration from acceleration point 2 until the speed reaches acceleration target 2, achieving maximum speed. It then runs smoothly again until it reaches deceleration point 2 and begins linear deceleration until the speed decreases to 0, at which point the conveyor arm reaches its highest point and the ascent ends. Pressure needs to provide load capacity during this process. The working pressure is the normal pressure required to maintain stable operation. Due to the deceleration before the inflection point and the reduction in inertia, the load capacity of the conveyor arm needs to be increased after the equipment reaches the inflection point so that the conveyor arm can smoothly cross the inflection point. The inflection point is also the point of maximum load during the conveyor arm's operation and the point of impact of the conveyor arm.

[0094] See Figure 5 The descending process of the conveyor arm and the process of the system controlling the hydraulic module can be seen through the descending curve. Figure 5The conveyor arm moves from the right side to the left side. Starting from the highest point, it first accelerates linearly until the speed reaches acceleration target 1 and achieves the maximum speed. Then it runs smoothly until it reaches deceleration point 1 and begins linear deceleration until the speed is reduced to deceleration target 1. At this time, the conveyor arm is in the process of descending. In order to reduce the descent speed and the excessive speed caused by gravity acceleration, the descent slope is small at this time to avoid collision at excessive speed, so as to achieve a small and stable inflection point speed to deal with the collision at the inflection point and reduce the collision damage of mechanical parts. After the collision, it starts linear acceleration from acceleration point 2 again to reach acceleration target 2 and achieve the maximum speed. Then it runs smoothly again until it reaches deceleration point 2 and begins linear deceleration until the speed is reduced to 0. At this time, it reaches position 0 and the descent process ends. The pressure needs to provide load capacity for the process during this process. The working pressure can be the normal pressure to maintain stable operation.

[0095] The embodiment of the present invention achieves changes in load capacity by increasing or decreasing pressure values, and adjusts the up and down speeds by adjusting the flow of the hydraulic module. It can be seen that the ascending and descending processes of the conveying arm of the embodiment of the present invention greatly improve the operational stability of the equipment.
