Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of road paving equipment, and in particular to unmanned road paving equipment based on Beidou positioning. Background Art

[0002] With the development of social economy, transportation is becoming more and more convenient. In the past decade or so, the total length of highway construction has been breaking through again and again. In areas with fewer plains, highways are built by digging holes in mountains and building bridges over water. Every region has achieved road access to every village, which facilitates people's travel and also drives economic development. The construction of highways has also developed from traditional construction relying on manpower to the current construction using various mechanical equipment.

[0003] In the process of highway construction, asphalt needs to be laid on the highway surface, which can improve the service life of the highway and reduce the wear of the highway on the tires. The laying of asphalt has strict requirements. It is necessary to lay the asphalt evenly on the road surface and maintain the flatness of the laying. For this reason, the prior art discloses a paving equipment, such as Chinese invention patent: CN106638231B (publication date: 2019-08-27) discloses a paver, which includes a frame, a spiral material distribution mechanism and a large arm that can be lifted and lowered relative to the frame, and the spiral material distribution mechanism or the large arm is provided with a first connecting structure, and the large arm or the spiral material distribution mechanism is provided with a second connecting structure that can be connected to the first connecting structure. When the first connecting structure and the second connecting structure are connected to each other, the spiral material distribution mechanism is lifted and lowered with the large arm relative to the frame. The device improves the uniformity of the paved material by lifting the spiral material distribution mechanism. However, the device can make the material evenly laid, and there are certain limitations on the flatness detection of the road surface after paving.

[0004] The emergence of paving machines has greatly solved various problems in road paving and improved the quality of road paving. With the development of science and technology, paving equipment is no longer limited to one function. The more functional equipment, the more people can free their hands. For example, Chinese invention patent: CN111021204B (publication date: 2021-11-02) A road automatic paving robot, mainly composed of a paver and a perception unit, a control decision unit, an execution unit, and a wireless communication unit. Its autonomous navigation uses satellites and laser distance sensors combined with road design information to achieve paving positioning and steering. The paving operation uses material level ultrasonic radar to autonomously decide the feeding speed and driving speed; the paving thickness and flatness use lidar to measure the roadbed and the paving road surface height difference automatic leveling and ironing device. The control decision unit consists of a host computer, a group of slave computers, and an airborne field bus; the host computer is connected to the engineering dispatch center. The equipment solves the automatic driving of the paver through various sensors, realizes automatic paving, and detects the flatness of the roadbed surface. However, the device has certain limitations during use. After paving is completed, the detection of the flatness of the road surface is not comprehensive, and the overall flatness may have certain errors.

[0005] The flatness of the road surface not only affects the driver's driving experience on the road, but also reduces the occurrence of traffic accidents. In order to ensure the flatness of the road surface, higher requirements are placed on the paving equipment. In the existing paving equipment, it is necessary not only to improve the stability of the equipment operation, but also to ensure the paving accuracy during the paving process, and to maintain the flatness of the paved road surface to the greatest extent. Based on the above problems, the prior art has also provided some solutions. For example, the Chinese invention patent: CN111979881A (publication date: 2020-11-24) discloses an unmanned intelligent paving equipment assembly, which is provided with a hydraulic drive, and a compensation and precision control drive mechanism is used at the lower end of the drive seat to connect to the upper end of the ironing plate. In this way, the hydraulic drive component can roughly adjust the screed thickness and slope of the screed, and the compensation and precision control drive mechanism can accurately compensate and adjust the screed thickness and slope of the screed, which can effectively improve the high-precision control and adjustment of the paving thickness and slope, improve the paving accuracy, and save materials; the equipment uses the compensation adjustment mechanism to adjust the distance between the upper connecting card and the lower connecting card, effectively improving the driving and control accuracy. However, although the equipment guarantees the flatness of the paved road surface to a great extent, after paving is completed, the temperature on the road surface is different. In the subsequent initial pressing and re-pressing process, the road surface at different temperatures is rolled, which may cause the flatness of the road surface to change.

[0006] In view of this, in order to address the above-mentioned deficiencies, the present invention has improved and optimized the existing unmanned road paving equipment and developed an unmanned road paving equipment based on Beidou positioning. Summary of the invention

[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 and Fig.10 As shown, the connecting frame 1 includes a rectangular connecting rod 11, a rectangular block 12 and a cylindrical connecting rod 13; the two ends of one side of the rectangular block 12 are respectively fixedly installed with one end of the rectangular connecting rod 11; the specific installation method adopts bolt connection; because the bolt is convenient and quick in the subsequent disassembly and assembly process; the other ends of the two rectangular connecting rods 11 are fixedly installed on the paver; the specific installation method adopts bolt connection; it is convenient to install and disassemble, and can keep the rectangular connecting rod 11 and the paver on the same horizontal line; ensure the accuracy and precision of subsequent detection; a plurality of cylindrical connecting rods 13 are evenly installed on the other side of the rectangular block 12; specifically, welding is adopted for connection; the other ends of the plurality of cylindrical connecting rods 13 are fixedly installed at the center position of one side of the plurality of boxes 2; the cylindrical connecting rod 13 is used to connect the box 2; the interior of the rectangular block 12 is a hollow structure; the rectangular block 12 is composed of multiple hollow sections The hollow aluminum alloy 14 is composed of a plurality of pulleys 15 on the surface of one end of the hollow aluminum alloy 14; a plurality of slideways 16 are arranged on the inner surface of the other end of the hollow aluminum alloy 14; the plurality of pulleys 15 on one end of the hollow aluminum alloy 14 are slidably installed with the plurality of slideways 16 on one end of the other hollow aluminum alloy 14; the rectangular block 12 is composed of multiple sections of hollow aluminum alloy 14 in order to reduce the weight of the connecting frame 1; the plurality of pulleys 15 and the plurality of slideways are arranged on the hollow aluminum alloy 14 in order to realize the extension and retraction of the rectangular block 12; when the road surface is relatively wide, the distance between the boxes 2 will be expanded, and then the rectangular block 12 will be driven to extend and retract through the cylindrical connecting rod 13, and the aluminum alloy on the rectangular block 12 slides back and forth on the slideway 16 through the pulley 15, thereby realizing the extension and retraction of the rectangular block 12, and the distance between the rectangular connecting rods 11 can also be adjusted according to the width of the paver.

[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the round rod 3 includes a rack 31 and a rectangular block 32; one end of the rack 31 is fixedly mounted on one end of one side of the rectangular block 32; the other end of the other side of the rectangular block 32 is fixedly mounted on the other end of the round rod 3; the rack 31 is meshed with the gear 53; the rack 31 is used to drive the round rod 3 to move; thereby driving the box body 2 to move, expanding or reducing the distance between the boxes 2; the rectangular block 32 can be used to prevent the rack 31 from exceeding the limit range when moving on the gear 53, causing the rack 31 to fall off. When the rack 31 moves, it will drive the rectangular block 32 to move, and the rectangular block 32 moves back and forth between the gear 53 and the inner wall of the box body 2, ensuring that the rack 31 is always meshed with the gear 53.

[0038] like Fig. 9As shown, the cylinder 4 includes a flexible connection block 41 and a strain gauge 42; both ends of the flexible connection block 41 are fixedly connected to the round rod 3 respectively; the flexible connection block 41 is not stretchable and deformable in the axial direction; the flexible connection block 41 is not stretchable and deformable in the axial direction so that the strain gauge 42 and the bending sensor will not be damaged due to stretching when the distance between the boxes 2 is extended or retracted; the strain gauge 42 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the flexible connection block 41; the flexible connection block 41 is to ensure that a slight height difference can be generated between the two boxes 2 in the direction of gravity; the strain gauge 42 can detect slight deviations; a bending sensor is fixedly installed on the strain gauge 42; the deformation amount is transmitted to the bending sensor through the deformation of the strain gauge 42, and the bending sensor detects the deformation amount and sends a signal to the control unit.

[0039] like Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the power unit 5 includes a servo motor 51, a rotating shaft 52 and a gear 53; the servo motor 51 is vertically fixedly installed at the center of the bottom surface inside the box body 2; the rotating shaft 52 is fixedly installed on the top of the servo motor 51; the gear 53 is fixedly installed on the rotating shaft 52; the gear 53 is a cylindrical structure, and the top, middle and bottom of the gear 53 are provided with outwardly protruding circular protrusions; the top and middle parts and the middle and bottom parts of the gear 53 are respectively meshed with the rack 31; the servo motor 51 is used to drive the entire box body 2 to move; the top, middle and bottom parts of the gear 53 are provided with outwardly protruding circular protrusions to prevent the multiple racks 31 from being misaligned when meshing on the gear 53, and at the same time, it can also increase the stability of the rack 31 when meshing with the gear 53.

[0040] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the auxiliary unit 6 includes a supporting cylinder 61 and a universal wheel 62; the top of the supporting cylinder 61 is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the outer surface of the box body 2; the universal wheel 62 is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the supporting cylinder 61; the universal wheel 62 is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the supporting cylinder 61 so that the distance between the boxes 2 can be quickly achieved when they are extended or retracted. At the same time, a temperature sensor can be installed on the universal wheel 62 to detect the road surface temperature in real time. When the road surface width is large, the servo motor 51 rotates, driving the gear 53 and the rack 31 to move. The round rod 3 on the box body 2 is pushed by the rack 31, which will increase the distance between the two boxes 2, and when the distance between the boxes 2 is expanded, it expands both horizontally and longitudinally. At this time, the moving trajectory of the middle universal wheel 62 is different from the moving trajectory of the universal wheel 62 on the edge. If a fixed unidirectional wheel is used, the box body 2 will be affected when it moves.

[0041] The sensing unit 7 includes a high-temperature resistant temperature sensor, a displacement sensor and a bending sensor; a plurality of the high-temperature resistant temperature sensors are fixedly mounted at the bottom of the supporting cylinder 61; a plurality of the displacement sensors are fixedly mounted on one side of the box 2; a plurality of the bending sensors are fixedly mounted inside the cylinder 4; the high-temperature resistant temperature sensor is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the supporting cylinder 61, detects the temperature of the asphalt on the road surface in real time, and sends a signal to the control unit, the control unit sends the signal to the unmanned roller to roll the road surface, when it detects that the road surface temperature is between 110-140°C, the unmanned roller starts working to roll the road surface, the displacement sensor is fixedly mounted between each box 2, when the box 2 moves, the distance between the boxes 2 is detected in real time, so that the box 2 can move accurately and keep the distance between the two boxes 2 equal, and at the same time when the entire device starts to move, the displacement sensor can also be used to detect the box 2 when it moves. When displacement occurs, the displacement sensor sends a signal to the control unit, and the control unit controls the servo motor 51 in the box body 2 to rotate and adjust the distance between the boxes 2; when the bending sensor is installed inside the cylinder 4, in order to detect the flatness of the road surface, when multiple boxes 2 are driven by the paver, the box body 2 moves on the road surface. When the road surface is uneven or has a certain inclination, a slight height difference will be formed between the two boxes 2, and the strain gauge 42 inside the cylinder 4 will be deformed. The strain gauge 42 causes the movement of the bending sensor to bend, and the bending sensor sends a signal to the control unit. The control unit will analyze and process the signals sent by the bending sensors between all the boxes 2 to obtain the overall flatness of the road surface and send the data to the unmanned roller. The unmanned roller will repeatedly roll the higher parts of the road surface for many times. The bending sensor not only detects the flatness of the road surface in the length direction, but also detects the flatness in the width direction.

[0042] A Beidou satellite locator is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting frame 1; the Beidou satellite locator is electrically connected to the control unit; the Beidou satellite locator is used to generate and receive signals, and control the moving distance of the paver through satellite positioning. In relatively harsh weather conditions, the working condition and working position of the paver can be detected in real time through satellites, thereby controlling the operation of the paver.

[0043] The telescopic range between the multiple boxes 2 is 0.5-1.5m; and the longitudinal number of the multiple boxes 2 is greater than the transverse number; the telescopic range between the boxes 2 is 0.5-1.5m to prevent the distance between the boxes 2 from being too large or too small, which will cause a large detection error of the bending sensor between the two boxes 2, thereby causing data errors. At the same time, the distance between the boxes 2 can also be adjusted according to the width of the road surface so that the entire road surface can be fully detected. The longitudinal number of the boxes 2 is greater than the transverse number in order to obtain more reference data, because the detection of the road surface in the length direction requires multiple data for comparison, which can make the detected data more accurate, and can also determine the flatness of the entire road surface.

[0044] The distance between the multiple boxes 2 is always consistent; the distance between the boxes 2 is always consistent in order to prevent errors in the detection data. When the specific distance between two boxes is different from the distance between the other two boxes 2, this will cause the bending degree of the bending sensor to be different. Therefore, when multiple data are compared and referenced, the error of the result will be relatively large, and the detection will be inaccurate.

[0045] During operation, the Beidou satellite locates the entire paver through the satellite positioning device on the connecting frame 1, and the paver is started by wireless remote control. At the same time, the servo motor 51 in the box 2 rotates, and the distance between each box 2 and the distance between the box 2 and the road surface is detected by the displacement sensor, and a signal is sent to the control unit. The control unit receives the signal, controls the servo motor 51 to rotate, drives the rotating shaft 52 to rotate, the rotating shaft 52 drives the gear 53 to rotate, the gear 53 drives the rack 31 to move, the rack 31 drives the round rod 3 to move, and the two connected round rods 3 move toward each other, so that the distance between the boxes 2 is gradually expanded. At the same time, the rectangular block 12 on the connecting frame 1 is moved as the distance between the boxes 2 is expanded. The pulley 15 on the outer surface of one end of the hollow aluminum alloy 14 on the rectangular block 12 slides on the slide 16 on the inner wall of one end of the connected hollow aluminum alloy 14, and moves with the box 2. The free end of the rectangular connecting rod 11 on the connecting frame 1 is fixedly connected to the paver. The paver starts to work and moves forward slowly, driving the connecting frame 1 to move. The connecting frame 1 drives multiple arrays of boxes 2 to move slowly. During the movement of the box 2, on the paved road surface, the high-temperature resistant temperature sensor at the bottom of the supporting cylinder 61 detects the temperature of the road surface in real time and sends a signal to the control unit. After receiving the signal, the control unit will process the signal and send it to the unmanned press.

[0046] When the road surface temperature is detected to be between 110-140°C, the unmanned roller starts to work and rolls the road surface. At the same time, when the box 2 moves forward, due to the uneven road surface, a slight height difference will be generated in the horizontal and longitudinal directions between the boxes 2, and a slight deformation will occur through the flexible connection block 41. The flexible connection block 41 drives the strain gauge 42 to undergo the same slight deformation. Since the bending sensor is fixedly installed on the strain gauge 42, the bending sensor will also change with the change of the strain gauge 42. The bending sensor converts the slight height difference between the boxes 2 into a curvature value and sends the signal value to the control unit in real time. The control unit analyzes and processes the signal and finally sends the signal to the unmanned roller. The unmanned roller receives the signal and rolls the road surface with high temperature and high road surface for multiple times. The paver moves forward slowly through the Beidou satellite positioning system. Box 2 detects in real time and sends a signal. If the box 2 detects that the road surface flatness exceeds the standard range, the control unit will send a signal to the paver. The paver will adjust the forward speed and the working angle of the machine through the satellite positioning system, so as to improve the flatness of the paved road surface during paving. When the paving is completed, the bolts connecting the connecting frame 1 and the paver are removed, and a signal is sent through the Beidou satellite. The control unit controls the servo motor 51 to rotate, so that the distance between each box 2 of the array is gradually shortened, and finally the boxes 2 are brought together to complete the contraction.
