Background Art

[0002] Truck cranes are a common type of lifting equipment in the engineering field, typically utilizing a retractable and elevating boom for cargo lifting operations. Because the boom typically consists of multiple retractable sections, it can easily develop anomalies during long-term use, impacting the normal retraction and extension of the sections. Existing technologies have difficulty accurately and efficiently identifying and detecting abnormal boom conditions, hindering timely maintenance. Continued use of the boom in an abnormal state can easily lead to further damage, increasing maintenance costs and impacting normal operation. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution of the present invention are embodied in:

[0006] The identification method of abnormal state of the boom has been improved. The baseline distribution model and the real-time distribution model are established based on the motion parameters of each boom section in different working cycles.

It is understood, both explicitly and implicitly, by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0034] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0035] Application Overview

[0036] Lifting equipment is a common type of construction machinery in the engineering field, and truck cranes are one type of lifting equipment that can be moved on a vehicle. Truck cranes typically feature a boom mounted on the vehicle body that can be extended and lifted to lift cargo. The boom is typically composed of multiple retractable boom sections. During operation, the boom section can be rotated and lifted relative to the vehicle body, and the boom section can also be extended and retracted in the direction of the boom's extension. A sling is typically mounted on the end of the boom section. This movement allows the position of the sling to be adjusted.

[0037] However, over time, booms can experience wear and tear, and may exhibit anomalies. This is typically reflected in noticeable changes in the boom's extension or retraction speed. If a boom anomaly is not promptly detected and appropriate maintenance procedures are not performed, it can lead to "operation with damage," which can lead to further damage and affect the proper retraction and extension of the boom. Existing truck cranes struggle to accurately and efficiently identify and detect boom anomalies, making it difficult to promptly initiate maintenance. This can lead to further damage to the boom, impacting its proper operation and increasing maintenance costs.

[0038] The following provides some embodiments of the lifting equipment boom abnormality identification method, abnormality identification system, lifting equipment, electronic equipment and readable storage medium in the technical solution of the present invention.

[0039] In an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention, a method for identifying abnormalities in a lifting equipment boom is provided, such as Figure 1 Shown, including:

[0040] Step S100: Acquire parameter information and operation data of the lifting equipment;

[0041] Step S200: establishing a baseline distribution model and a real-time distribution model of the motion parameters of each boom section according to the parameter information and the operation data;

[0042] Step S300: performing a comparative calculation on the real-time distribution model and the benchmark distribution model to determine a distribution difference index between the real-time distribution model and the benchmark distribution model;

[0043] Step S400: determining whether the arm is in an abnormal state according to the distribution difference index, and outputting corresponding prompt information;

[0044] Among them, Figure 2 As shown, the boom of the lifting equipment includes a plurality of telescopically movable sections.

[0045] In the method for identifying abnormalities in the boom of a lifting equipment in this embodiment, through steps S100 to S200, based on the parameter information and operating data of the lifting equipment, the motion parameters of each section of the boom are calculated, and a baseline distribution model and a real-time distribution model of each section of the boom are distributed and established, wherein the baseline distribution model corresponds to normal samples in the historical working cycle, and multiple groups of normal samples in the historical working cycle can be retrieved as needed; the real-time distribution model corresponds to data samples in the latest working cycle; the working cycle can be set according to actual conditions, for example, one day is a working cycle. Through step S300, the distribution difference index of the real-time distribution model and the baseline distribution model is calculated, and then through step S400, based on the distribution difference index, it is determined whether the boom is in an abnormal state, abnormality identification is achieved, and corresponding prompt information is output so that the operator can grasp the status of the boom in a timely manner.

[0046] Among them, the distribution difference index is a similarity index based on the probability density function. The smaller the distribution difference index is, the higher the data similarity between the two models is and the more normal the state of the upper arm is. Conversely, the larger the distribution difference index is, the lower the data similarity between the two models is and the more abnormal the state of the upper arm is.

[0047] It should be noted that the lifting equipment in the present invention includes but is not limited to truck cranes, and can also be other lifting machinery with a large arm. In addition, in actual applications, the lifting equipment large arm abnormality identification method in the present invention can be controlled and executed by the control device on the lifting equipment, that is, to realize abnormality identification on the equipment side; of course, it can also be that the cloud server establishes a communication connection with the lifting equipment, and the cloud server performs corresponding control execution to realize cloud-side abnormality identification. The prompt information can be output by the prompt device on the lifting equipment (such as a display, speaker, etc.), or it can be output by a remote central control device.

[0048] The method for identifying abnormalities in the boom of lifting equipment in this embodiment establishes a baseline distribution model and a real-time distribution model based on the motion parameters of each boom section in different working cycles, and then uses a distribution difference index to measure the distribution difference between the real-time distribution model and the baseline distribution model. It can effectively cross the beam and judge whether the boom is in an abnormal state, and output corresponding prompt information, so that the operator can grasp the health status of the boom in time, so as to take corresponding maintenance measures in time to prevent the loss from expanding, thereby reducing maintenance costs. At the same time, it can reduce the impact on the normal operation of the boom, which is conducive to improving construction efficiency.

[0049] In a further embodiment of the present invention, a method for identifying abnormalities in a lifting equipment boom is provided, such as Figure 3 Shown, including:

[0050] Step S100: Acquire parameter information and operation data of the lifting equipment;

[0051] Step S210: Identify the identity information of the lifting equipment according to the parameter information;

[0052] Step S220: Calculating a speed data set of each boom section performing telescopic motion in each working cycle based on the operating data;

[0053] Step S230: establishing a baseline distribution model based on the first speed data set in the historical working cycle, establishing a real-time distribution model based on the second speed data set in the latest working cycle, and storing the baseline distribution model and the real-time distribution model in the storage space corresponding to the identity information;

[0054] Step S300: performing a comparative calculation on the real-time distribution model and the benchmark distribution model to determine a distribution difference index between the real-time distribution model and the benchmark distribution model;

[0055] Step S400: determining whether the arm is in an abnormal state according to the distribution difference index, and outputting corresponding prompt information;

[0056] Among them, Figure 2 As shown, the boom of the lifting equipment includes multiple telescopic boom sections; the parameter information includes the equipment identification information and model information of the lifting equipment; the operation data includes the boom section length information, drive mechanism speed information, lifting weight information, main arm angle information, and boom section telescopic movement time information in each working cycle.

[0057] In this embodiment, based on the previous embodiment, step S200 is further improved. Step S210 is used to identify the lifting equipment. Step S220 is used to calculate the operating data of the lifting equipment to obtain a speed data set for the telescopic movement of each boom in each working cycle, which serves as the basis for establishing the model. The operating data includes boom length information, drive mechanism speed information, load information, main boom angle information, and time information for boom telescopic movement in each working cycle. Each working cycle includes a historical working cycle and a latest working cycle. The latest working cycle is the working cycle closest to the current moment, and the historical working cycle is the working cycle before the latest working cycle. The speed data set for the telescopic movement of the boom in the historical working cycle is the first speed data set, and the speed data set for the telescopic movement of the boom in the latest working cycle is the second speed data set. It can be understood that the main form of movement of the boom is telescopic movement. Therefore, if an abnormality occurs in the boom, it will directly reflect the telescopic speed of the boom. That is, the change in the telescopic speed of the boom can more accurately reflect the state of the boom.

[0058] In step S230, a baseline distribution model and a real-time distribution model are established based on the first velocity data set and the second velocity data set, respectively, and stored in a storage space corresponding to the identity information of the lifting equipment, thereby achieving binding with the identity information of the lifting equipment. The storage location of the model data may vary depending on the execution entity of the lifting equipment boom abnormality identification method. For example, when a control device on the lifting equipment performs control execution, the model data may be stored in the control device, while when a cloud server performs control execution, the model data may be stored in the cloud server's data center.

[0059] In a further embodiment of the present invention, a method for identifying abnormalities in a lifting equipment boom is provided, such as Figure 4 Shown, including:

[0060] Step S100: Acquire parameter information and operation data of the lifting equipment;

[0061] Step S210: Identify the identity information of the lifting equipment according to the parameter information;

[0062] Step S221: determining the boom working state according to the driving mechanism speed information, the hoisting weight information, and the main boom angle information;

[0063] Step S222: determining a speed data set of each boom extending and retracting movement under different boom working states in each working cycle based on the boom length information and the time information of the boom retracting and retracting movement;

[0064] Step S230: establishing a baseline distribution model based on the first speed data set in the historical working cycle, establishing a real-time distribution model based on the second speed data set in the latest working cycle, and storing the baseline distribution model and the real-time distribution model in the storage space corresponding to the identity information;

[0065] Step S300: performing a comparative calculation on the real-time distribution model and the benchmark distribution model to determine a distribution difference index between the real-time distribution model and the benchmark distribution model;

[0066] Step S400: determining whether the arm is in an abnormal state according to the distribution difference index, and outputting corresponding prompt information;

[0067] Among them, Figure 2 As shown, the boom of the lifting equipment includes multiple telescopic boom sections; the parameter information includes the equipment identification information and model information of the lifting equipment; the operation data includes the boom section length information, drive mechanism speed information, lifting weight information, main arm angle information, and boom section telescopic movement time information in each working cycle.

[0068] In this embodiment, step S220 is further improved on the basis of the above embodiment. The working state of the boom is determined by step S221, such as the main boom angle, the speed of the drive mechanism, the load, etc., and the telescopic speed of the boom section corresponding to the working state of the boom (including the extension speed and the retraction speed) is calculated by step S222, thereby forming a speed data set under different boom working states. It can be understood that different boom working states have different effects on the telescopic speed of the boom section. By refining and distinguishing the telescopic speed of the boom section under different boom working states and forming corresponding model data, it is beneficial to further improve the accuracy of abnormality identification and judgment.

[0069] Furthermore, during the extension movement of each arm section of the boom, it goes through three stages: accelerated extension, uniform extension, and decelerated extension. During the retraction movement, it goes through three stages: accelerated contraction, uniform contraction, and decelerated contraction. Accordingly, the extension speed in the speed data group also includes the speed values ​​of each arm section during the accelerated extension stage, uniform extension stage, and decelerated extension stage of the extension movement. The retraction speed in the speed data group also includes the speed values ​​of each arm section during the accelerated contraction stage, uniform contraction stage, and decelerated contraction stage of the retraction movement. By further subdividing the extension speed and retraction speed, we can further understand in detail the speed changes at different stages of the extension or retraction process, and use this as a basis for calculating the distribution differentiation index, which is conducive to further improving the accuracy of the calculation results, locating the specific stage where the abnormality occurs, reducing the difficulty of subsequent troubleshooting operations, and facilitating the operator to take targeted maintenance measures.

[0070] In a further embodiment of the present invention, a method for identifying abnormalities in a lifting equipment boom is provided, such as Figure 5 Shown, including:

[0071] Step S100: Acquire parameter information and operation data of the lifting equipment;

[0072] Step S210: Identify the identity information of the lifting equipment according to the parameter information;

[0073] Step S220: Calculating a speed data set of each boom section performing telescopic motion in each working cycle based on the operating data;

[0074] Step S230: establishing a baseline distribution model based on the first speed data set in the historical working cycle, establishing a real-time distribution model based on the second speed data set in the latest working cycle, and storing the baseline distribution model and the real-time distribution model in the storage space corresponding to the identity information;

[0075] Step S310: Calculating a first probability density function of the reference distribution model and a second probability density function of the real-time distribution model;

[0076] Step S320: determining the basic distribution difference index according to the correspondence between the first probability density function, the second probability density function and the basic distribution difference index;

[0077] Step S330: symmetry optimization is performed on the basic distribution difference index to obtain a distribution difference index;

[0078] Step S400: determining whether the arm is in an abnormal state according to the distribution difference index, and outputting corresponding prompt information;

[0079] Among them, Figure 2 As shown, the boom of the lifting equipment includes multiple telescopic boom sections; the parameter information includes the equipment identification information and model information of the lifting equipment; the operation data includes the boom section length information, drive mechanism speed information, lifting weight information, main arm angle information, and boom section telescopic movement time information in each working cycle.

[0080] In this embodiment, step S300 is further improved on the basis of the above embodiment. Step S310 calculates the first probability density function of the baseline distribution model and the second probability density function of the real-time distribution model as the data basis for calculating the distribution difference index. Specifically, the probability density function can be estimated using a Gaussian kernel function. Steps S320 and S330 are used to perform calculations in two steps, namely, first calculating the basic distribution difference index, and then performing symmetry optimization on the basic distribution difference index to obtain the optimized distribution difference index, so as to eliminate the deviation caused by asymmetry, thereby further improving the accuracy of abnormality recognition judgment.

[0081] For example, the probability density function of the baseline distribution model is p(x), and the probability density function of the real-time distribution model is q(x). Specifically, the probability density function can be estimated using a Gaussian kernel function. The basic distribution difference index is calculated using the formula: S(P,Q) = -∫p(x)lnq(x) - [-∫p(x)lnp(x)]. To optimize the asymmetry of the basic distribution difference index, an intermediate function is often constructed, such as I(P,Q) = S[P,0.5×(P+Q)]. Then, by swapping P and Q, E(P,Q) = I(P,Q) + I(Q,P) is obtained to eliminate the asymmetry of the basic distribution difference index. Based on the above principle, the optimized distribution difference index can be calculated using the formula: Y(P,Q) = 0.5×[S(P,M) + S(Q,M)], where M = 0.5×(P+Q).

[0082] The following is an example of the data of the boom of a certain type of truck crane from June 2022 to January 2023. Figure 6 and Figure 7The velocity samples for the fourth boom section during the deceleration and extension phase are shown in Figure 1. The distribution variability indices for each month are: 0.0728; 0.0347; 0.1127; 0.2176; 0.2159; 0.041; 0.0316; and 0.0692. The data shows a significant increase in the distribution variability indices for September and October 2022, indicating anomalies during the fourth boom section's deceleration and extension phases during these months.

[0083] In a further embodiment of the present invention, a method for identifying abnormalities in a lifting equipment boom is provided, such as Figure 8 Shown, including:

[0084] Step S100: Acquire parameter information and operation data of the lifting equipment;

[0085] Step S210: Identify the identity information of the lifting equipment according to the parameter information;

[0086] Step S220: Calculating a speed data set of each boom section performing telescopic motion in each working cycle based on the operating data;

[0087] Step S230: establishing a baseline distribution model based on the first speed data set in the historical working cycle, establishing a real-time distribution model based on the second speed data set in the latest working cycle, and storing the baseline distribution model and the real-time distribution model in the storage space corresponding to the identity information;

[0088] Step S300: performing a comparative calculation on the real-time distribution model and the benchmark distribution model to determine a distribution difference index between the real-time distribution model and the benchmark distribution model;

[0089] Step S410: determining whether the distribution difference index is greater than an index threshold, and generating a first determination result;

[0090] If the first judgment result is yes, step S420 is executed: determining that the arm is in an abnormal state, and controlling the prompt device to output corresponding abnormal prompt information;

[0091] If the first judgment result is no, step S430 is executed: determining that the arm is in a normal state, and controlling the prompt device to output corresponding normal prompt information;

[0092] Among them, Figure 2 As shown, the boom of the lifting equipment includes multiple telescopic boom sections; the parameter information includes the equipment identification information and model information of the lifting equipment; the operation data includes the boom section length information, drive mechanism speed information, lifting weight information, main arm angle information, and boom section telescopic movement time information in each working cycle.

[0093] In this embodiment, step S400 is further improved on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment. Step S410 is used to compare the distribution difference index with the index threshold to determine whether the boom is in an abnormal state. Among them, the index threshold can be a variable or a fixed value set in advance according to the specific model, parameters and other indicators of the lifting equipment, as a criterion for judging the distribution difference index. If the distribution difference index is greater than the index threshold, step S420 is executed, and it is considered that the boom is in an abnormal state, and the prompt device is controlled to output the corresponding abnormal prompt information; if the distribution difference index is not greater than the index threshold, step S430 is executed, and it is considered that the boom is in a normal state, and the prompt device is controlled to output the corresponding normal prompt information. Through the above steps, it is possible to measure whether the boom is in an abnormal state with quantitative calculation results, which is efficient, accurate and highly operational.

[0094] Furthermore, the indicator threshold can be set to 0.8 to 1.2 times the average difference index, where the average difference index is the average of the maximum and minimum values ​​of the distribution difference index, that is, the value range of the indicator threshold is [0.5×(Ymax+Ymin)×0.8, 0.5×(Ymax+Ymin)×1.2], Ymax represents the maximum value of the distribution difference index, and Ymin represents the minimum value of the distribution difference index.

[0095] In a further embodiment of the present invention, a method for identifying abnormalities in a lifting equipment boom is provided, such as Figure 9 Shown, including:

[0096] Step S100: Acquire parameter information and operation data of the lifting equipment;

[0097] Step S210: Identify the identity information of the lifting equipment according to the parameter information;
