[0023] Below, the exemplary embodiments according to the present application will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application, and it should be understood that the present application is not limited to the exemplary embodiments described herein.

[0024] Exemplary Systems

[0025] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a crane provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the crane includes: a walking device 1 and a power supply device 5; a power supply device 3, the power supply device 3 is located between the walking device 1 and the power supply device 5, the power supply device 3 is connected to the walking device 1 through a first connecting rod 2, and the power supply device 3 is connected to the power supply device 5 through a second connecting rod 4; a controller (not shown in the figure), the controller is connected to the walking device 1, and the controller is used to execute the crane walking correction method provided in this application.

[0026] The crane may be a gantry crane, which includes a traveling device 1 (such as a trolley) for traveling, a power supply device 5 (such as a sliding beam) for powering, and a power supply device 3 (such as a power supply trolley) for drawing power. The preset traveling route of the traveling device 1 is parallel to the laid route of the power supply device 5. One end of the first connecting rod 2 is fixedly connected to the traveling device 1, and the other end of the first connecting rod 2 is connected to the power supply device 3. One end of the second connecting rod 4 is hinged to the power supply device 5, and the other end of the second connecting rod 4 is connected to the power supply device 3. Therefore, if the crane does not have a lateral deviation during traveling, the angle α between the first connecting rod 2 and the second connecting rod 4 will not change significantly. If the crane has a lateral deviation during traveling, it can be judged by the angle between the first connecting rod 2 and the second connecting rod 4. The angle α between the first link 2 and the second link 4 can be detected by installing a sensor. By adding a sensor (such as a potentiometer, inductor, Hall effect sensor, etc.) to the existing automatic travel / automatic deviation detection system for the gantry crane, the angle between the first link 2 and the second link 4 can be obtained in real time, thereby determining whether the traveling device 1 has experienced lateral deviation. The angle can also be directly calculated to obtain the lateral deviation of the crane. Based on the lateral deviation, the speed difference between the left and right tires of the crane can be adjusted to keep the gantry crane deviation within a safe range and smoothly decelerate to a stop.

[0027] Based on the existing trolley automatic travel / automatic correction detection system, this crane uses the existing structure of the crane to add a correction method to ensure that even if the automatic correction / automatic travel system fails, the crane will still not have a large lateral deviation in the event of an emergency stop, thereby ensuring equipment safety and providing further safety protection for the crane.

[0028] Exemplary Methods

[0029] Figure 2 This is a flow chart of a crane walking deviation correction method provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 As shown, the crane includes a power-taking device, a traveling device, and a power supply device, wherein the power-taking device is connected to the traveling device via a first connecting rod, and the power-taking device is connected to the power supply device via a second connecting rod. The crane walking deviation correction method includes:

[0030] Step 100: Obtain the real-time angle between the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod.

[0031] By adding a sensor (such as a potentiometer, inductor, or Hall effect sensor), the angle between the first and second links can be acquired in real time. The real-time angle between the first and second links can reflect whether the walking device's current travel path has experienced lateral deviation. Therefore, acquiring the real-time angle between the first and second links can quickly and easily determine the walking device's deviation status.

[0032] Step 200: Obtain the lateral offset of the walking device according to the difference between the real-time angle and the preset angle.

[0033] Based on the difference between the real-time angle and the preset angle, combined with the triangular structural relationship formed between the power-taking device, the walking device and the power supply device, the lateral offset of the walking device can be directly calculated. For example, if the angle, the length of the first connecting rod and the length of the second connecting rod are known, the length of the third line segment can be calculated in combination with the trigonometric cosine formula, and then a second triangle is constructed based on the third line segment. The length of the line segment in the second triangle that can directly reflect the lateral offset is calculated, thereby obtaining the lateral offset of the walking device. The preset angle can be the angle when the walking device does not produce any lateral offset at all, and the normal driving state of the walking device is reflected by the preset angle.

[0034] Moreover, when the difference between the real-time angle and the preset angle is greater than or equal to the preset difference, the lateral offset of the walking device can be calculated. When the difference between the real-time angle and the preset angle is less than the preset difference, the lateral offset of the walking device does not have a significant impact on the forward route, and observation can continue without making corrections.

[0035] Step 300: When the lateral offset is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, the speed difference between the left tire and the right tire of the walking device is adjusted according to the lateral offset.

[0036] When the lateral offset is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, that is, the lateral offset of the current walking device has exceeded the safe range of offset, the walking route needs to be corrected in a timely manner, otherwise there will be safety hazards. When the lateral offset is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, since the walking device generates a lateral offset, the speed difference between the left and right tires of the walking device is adjusted in time according to the lateral offset, thereby adjusting the distance between the walking device and the power supply device, so as to keep the walking device offset within a safe range and smoothly decelerate to a stop. Correcting the offset generated by the walking device can ensure the safe operation of various equipment of the crane. For example, when the power supply device is located to the right of the walking device, the lateral offset is greater than or equal to the preset threshold and the real-time angle is less than the preset angle, the offset direction of the walking device is toward the direction close to the power supply device. At this time, the speed of the right tire is adjusted to be greater than the speed of the left tire until the real-time angle is equal to the preset angle, or the lateral offset is less than the preset threshold. When the lateral offset is greater than or equal to the preset threshold and the real-time angle is greater than the preset angle, the offset direction of the walking device is towards the direction away from the power supply equipment. At this time, the speed of the left tire is adjusted to be greater than the speed of the right tire until the real-time angle is equal to the preset angle, or the lateral offset is less than the preset threshold.

[0037] In one embodiment, the connection point between the first connecting rod and the walking device is the first connection point, and the connection point between the second connecting rod and the power supply device is the second connection point. Before the above step 200, the crane walking correction method may include: obtaining the length of a first line segment; wherein the first line segment represents the distance between the first connection point and the second connection point; obtaining the length of a second line segment; wherein the second line segment represents the height difference between the first connection point and the second connection point; and obtaining the length of a third line segment based on the length of the first line segment and the length of the second line segment; wherein the third line segment represents the distance from the first connection point to the third connection point, and the third connection point represents the foot of the perpendicular between the horizontal line of the first connection point and the vertical line passing through the second connection point; wherein the above step 200 may include: obtaining the lateral offset of the walking device based on the length of the third line segment.

[0038] The first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are connected at the same position of the power supply equipment, which can be called the fourth connection point here. The first connecting point, the second connecting point and the fourth connecting point are connected end to end to construct a triangle. The first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are two sides of the triangle. The real-time angle or the preset angle is the internal angle between the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod. The first line segment is the third side of the triangle. Therefore, the diagonal angle of the third side is known (the real-time angle or the preset angle), and the length of the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod is known. The length of the first line segment (current length or preset length) can be calculated by the trigonometric cosine formula.

[0039] After obtaining the length of the first line segment, a second triangle is reconstructed. The construction principle of this second triangle is as follows: the height difference between the first and second connection points is fixed. Because the height of the walking device is fixed, and the height of the power supply device is also fixed, the vertical height difference between the first and second connection points is a fixed value, that is, the length of the second line segment is fixed and does not change with the lateral displacement of the walking device. Based on this, a horizontal line is drawn through the first connection point and a vertical line is drawn through the second connection point. The vertical line is perpendicular to the horizontal line and is perpendicular to the horizontal line. If the foot of the vertical and horizontal lines is the third connection point, then the first, second, and third connection points are connected end to end to form a second triangle. This second triangle is a right triangle, with the first line segment being the hypotenuse of the right triangle and the third line segment being the right leg of the right triangle. Therefore, given the height difference between the first and second connection points and the length of the first line segment calculated above, the length of the third line segment can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem. The difference between the length of the current third line segment and the preset third line segment directly reflects the lateral displacement of the walking device. Therefore, the lateral offset of the walking device can be directly obtained by subtracting the length value of the preset third line segment in the initial state from the length value of the third line segment currently calculated.

[0040] In one embodiment, obtaining the length of the first line segment includes: obtaining the current length of the first line segment from the first connection point to the second connection point based on the real-time angle; wherein, obtaining the length of the third line segment based on the length of the first line segment and the length of the second line segment includes: obtaining the current length of the third line segment based on the current length of the first line segment and the length of the second line segment.

[0041] The real-time angle or the preset angle is the interior angle between the first link and the second link, and the first line segment is the third side of the triangle. Therefore, if the diagonal angle of the third side (i.e., the real-time angle) is known and the lengths of the first link and the second link are known, the current length of the first line segment can be calculated using the trigonometric cosine formula. After obtaining the current length of the first line segment, based on the constructed second triangle, if the height difference between the first connection point and the second connection point is known and the current length of the first line segment calculated above is known, the current length of the third line segment can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem.

[0042] In one embodiment, the above step 200 may include: obtaining a lateral offset of the walking device according to a difference between a current length of the third line segment and a preset length of the third line segment.

[0043] The difference between the length of the current third line segment and the preset third line segment directly reflects the lateral offset of the walking device. Therefore, the lateral offset of the walking device can be directly obtained by subtracting the initial preset third line segment length from the currently calculated third line segment length.

[0044] In one embodiment, the method for obtaining the preset length of the third line segment may include: obtaining the preset length of the first line segment from the first connection point to the second connection point based on the preset angle; obtaining the preset length of the third line segment based on the preset length of the first line segment and the length of the second line segment.

[0045] The preset angle is the internal angle between the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod, and the first line segment is the third side of the triangle. Therefore, the diagonal angle of the third side (i.e., the preset angle) is known, and the lengths of the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are known. The preset length of the first line segment can be calculated by the trigonometric cosine formula. After obtaining the preset length of the first line segment, based on the constructed second triangle, when the height difference between the first connection point and the second connection point is known, and the preset length of the first line segment calculated above is known, the preset length of the third line segment can be calculated by the Pythagorean theorem. In addition, the preset length of the third line segment and the preset length of the first line segment can also be directly obtained by measurement, manual setting, etc.

[0046] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the principle of a crane walking deviation correction method provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 As shown, obtaining the length of the first line segment includes: obtaining the length of the first line segment according to a preset angle or a real-time angle, the length of the first connecting rod, the length of the second connecting rod, and a trigonometric cosine formula; wherein the length of the first line segment is positively correlated with the preset angle or the real-time angle.

[0047] For example, by the trigonometric cosine formula cos(α) = 2×AB×OB / (AB 2 +OB 2 -OA 2 ) calculates the length of the first line segment, wherein α represents the preset angle or the real-time angle, AB represents the length of the first link, OB represents the length of the second link, and OA represents the length of the first line segment.

[0048] A represents the first connection point, B represents the fourth connection point (i.e., the power supply trolley), C represents the third connection point, O represents the second connection point, α represents the angle between the first link and the second link, i.e., the preset angle or the real-time angle, AB represents the length of the first link, OB represents the length of the second link, OA represents the length of the first line segment, α is the diagonal angle of OA, and when the values ​​of α, AB, and OB are known, according to cos(α)=2×AB×OB / (AB2 +OB 2 -OA 2 ), the length of OA can be obtained.

[0049] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, obtaining the length of the third line segment according to the length of the first line segment and the length of the second line segment includes: obtaining the length of the third line segment according to the length of the first line segment, the length of the second line segment and the Pythagorean theorem.

[0050] For example, the formula AC is established by the Pythagorean theorem: 2 =OA 2 -OC 2 ; Wherein, OA represents the length of the first line segment, OC represents the length of the second line segment, and AC represents the length of the third line segment.

[0051] As shown in the figure, A represents the first connection point, B represents the aforementioned fourth connection point (i.e., the power supply trolley), C represents the third connection point, O represents the second connection point, α represents the angle between the first and second connecting rods, i.e., the preset angle or the real-time angle, AB represents the length of the first connecting rod, OB represents the length of the second connecting rod, OA represents the length of the first line segment, OC represents the length of the second line segment, and AC represents the length of the third line segment. When the length of the second line segment is known and fixed, the length of OA obtained from the above-mentioned law of cosines and the Pythagorean theorem is used to calculate the length of AC. Subtracting the initial AC value from the currently calculated AC value will yield the lateral offset of the walking device.

[0052] In one embodiment, the above step 200 may include: when the real-time angle is less than the preset angle, the offset direction of the walking device is offset toward the direction close to the power supply device; when the real-time angle is greater than the preset angle, the offset direction of the walking device is offset toward the direction away from the power supply device.

[0053] Because the first and second connecting rods are connected to the same location on the power supply equipment, the preset travel path of the walking device is parallel to the laid line of the power supply equipment. One end of the first connecting rod is fixedly connected to the walking device, and the other end of the first connecting rod is connected to the power supply equipment. One end of the second connecting rod is hinged to the power supply equipment, and the other end of the second connecting rod is connected to the power supply equipment. The angle between the first and second connecting rods can reflect the distance between the walking device and the power supply equipment. Therefore, when the angle decreases, it can reflect that the walking device has deviated toward the power supply equipment. When the angle is gradually decreasing, it can reflect that the walking device is deviating in a direction closer to the power supply equipment. When the angle increases, it can reflect that the walking device is deviating away from the power supply equipment. When the angle is gradually increasing, it can reflect that the walking device is deviating in a direction away from the power supply equipment. Based on the parallel relationship between the walking device's travel path and the laid line of the power supply equipment, the travel path of the walking device can be monitored in real time based on the changes in the angle. This only requires adding angle detection equipment to the existing structure of the crane, which is low-cost and highly effective. When the real-time angle is equal to the preset angle, the walking device has not deviated.

[0054] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the working principle of a crane walking deviation correction method provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Figure 4 As shown, the crane walking deviation correction method provided by the present application can be applied to the case where the automatic deviation correction / automatic walking system fails when the crane is running at high speed, and the crane is stopped for emergency and automatically corrected. For example, the angle is obtained in real time (step 30), and based on the parallel relationship between the walking route of the walking device and the laying line of the power supply equipment, the walking route of the walking device can be monitored in real time according to the change of the angle to see whether it is offset, and the offset estimation is performed (step 31). If there is an offset, first confirm whether the main inspection is normal (step 32). If the main inspection is normal, the automatic walking / automatic deviation correction system (step 34) can be used normally to correct the offset. However, if the main inspection fails, the walking deviation correction method provided by the present application (step 33) can be used for emergency correction to ensure that after the automatic deviation correction / automatic walking system fails, the crane will not have a large lateral offset when it is stopped in an emergency, thereby ensuring the safety of the equipment and providing further safety protection for the crane.
