Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of crane control technology, specifically relating to a crane performance enhancement method, system, and crane. Background Technology

[0002] Cranes, especially wheeled cranes, are widely used in urban construction, factory equipment hoisting, and wind power installation as mobile lifting and handling machinery. With the increasing demands for lifting tonnage and boom length, single-cylinder pin-type telescopic booms are widely used in medium and large tonnage cranes. A single-cylinder pin-type telescopic boom uses a single telescopic cylinder to extend and retract each boom section sequentially. Adjacent boom sections are rigidly connected by the engagement of a boom pin and its corresponding hole. Lifting performance is affected by the boom extension and retraction configuration.

[0003] In factory and building construction sites, there are situations requiring frequent switching between near and far reach, and low and high altitude operations. Generally, single-cylinder pin-type cranes offer only a few dozen, at most a hundred, performance-based telescopic combinations. Taking a certain seven-section boom product as an example, the given performance-based telescopic combinations for the main boom are 43; however, the theoretical number of telescopic combinations is 4 to the power of 6, or 4096; the given combinations account for only 1.05%. According to national and industry standards, lifting operations are prohibited without performance-based combinations. Therefore, the existing performance-based telescopic combinations are far from meeting the needs of multi-scenario operation. Ideally, performance should be given for every telescopic combination, but current methods for giving crane performance-based combinations require extensive calculations and are time-consuming, making complete calculation impractical.

[0004] For situations requiring heavy lifting operations with more telescopic combinations, existing technologies offer the following solutions:

[0005] (1) Calculation method: Provide more telescopic combinations with different performance characteristics, such as expanding from dozens to 100, 200 or even more. This gives users more telescopic combinations to choose from. The performance of a single-cylinder pin crane is related to the crane's maximum lifting torque, wire rope tension, chassis structural performance, forward stability, reverse stability, telescopic combination, boom strength / rigidity / buckling, luffing angle, working radius, etc. The calculation process is as follows: obtain the structural performance of each load-bearing component of the crane through finite element analysis and other methods; summarize the performance of each component and combine it with the crane's working conditions to obtain the overall calculated performance of the crane under each working condition; manually verify the performance points to obtain the crane's verification performance; verify the performance points on a real vehicle to obtain the final performance of the crane under each working condition and each telescopic combination. As can be seen from the technical solution of the calculation method, its steps are cumbersome. If the final performance of thousands of telescopic combinations is obtained according to the above four steps, it will require a lot of material, manpower and time; and when users use it, they have to choose one from thousands of telescopic combinations, which is too difficult.

[0006] (2) Forced release method: By triggering the forced switch, the safety protection of the force limiter is released, allowing hoisting operations. The forced switch is generally used during fault rescue. Actively triggering the forced switch lacks safety protection and may cause dangers such as boom breakage or overturning.

[0007] Therefore, manufacturers typically select several high-performance telescopic combinations for each boom length, totaling dozens, based on their design experience, and provide them to users with a given final performance. However, a fixed set of dozens of telescopic combinations often cannot meet the needs of multi-scenario operations. Summary of the Invention

[0008] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a crane performance enhancement method, system, and crane, which solves the problem that cranes with single-cylinder pin telescopic booms cannot perform lifting operations under the safety protection of force limiters when there is no given performance telescopic combination.

Detailed Implementation

[0059] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0060] Example 1

[0061] An embodiment of the present invention discloses a method for extending the performance of a crane, comprising the following steps:

[0062] Step 1: Obtain the crane's current telescopic combination and current working radius:

[0063] See Figure 3 The current telescopic configuration of the crane can be obtained through actual vehicle inspection, and the steps include:

[0064] The current total boom length is obtained based on the telescopic cylinder length detection sensor; the current cylinder pin and boom pin locking status of each boom section is obtained based on the cylinder pin detection sensor and boom pin status detection sensor; and the current boom length of each boom section is obtained based on the current cylinder pin and boom pin locking status of each boom section and the boom position detection sensor.

[0065] The current telescopic combination is obtained based on the current total arm length and the current arm length of each arm segment.

[0066] The above process is a method to obtain the current telescopic combination through actual vehicle testing. The current telescopic combination can also be obtained through simulation by manual setting.

[0067] Step 2: See Figure 1 Based on the current telescopic combination, filter the query telescopic combination from the given telescopic combinations of the crane:

[0068] The selected telescopic combinations satisfy the following conditions: the total arm length is not less than the current total arm length of the current telescopic combination, and the arm length of each segment of the telescopic combination is not less than the current arm length of each segment of the corresponding current telescopic combination.

[0069] The filtering steps for querying scaling combinations include:

[0070] The current telescopic combination is compared with the given telescopic combination of the crane to obtain the candidate given telescopic combination;

[0071] Sort the candidate given stretching combinations according to the total arm length to obtain the set of given stretching combinations with the shortest total arm length;

[0072] Select one from the set of given scaling combinations with the shortest total arm length as the query scaling combination;

[0073] The filtering criteria include: the total arm length of the given telescopic combination is not less than the current total arm length of the current telescopic combination, and the arm length of each section of the given telescopic combination is not less than the current arm length of each section of the corresponding current telescopic combination.

[0074] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, a given telescopic combination with the shortest total arm length can be selected as the query telescopic combination from the set of given telescopic combinations with the shortest selected arm or the longest selected arm. The selected arm can be the outermost arm. When the outermost arms are also equal, other arms can be selected, such as the second outermost arm adjacent to the outermost arm.

[0075] In other embodiments of the present invention, the following steps can also be used to filter and query telescopic combinations: sort the given telescopic combinations of the crane in ascending order of total boom length; starting from the given telescopic combination with the smallest total boom length, compare the current telescopic combination with each given telescopic combination in turn; when a given telescopic combination that meets the above filtering conditions is obtained, stop comparing the next given telescopic combination, and take the first given telescopic combination that meets the filtering conditions as the query telescopic combination.

[0076] In this invention, query scaling combinations can also be manually set directly. Any given scaling combination that satisfies the following conditions: the total arm length is not less than the current total arm length of the current scaling combination, and the arm length of each segment is not less than the current arm length of each segment of the corresponding current scaling combination can be used as a query scaling combination, and performance can be obtained according to this query scaling combination. Of course, the aforementioned query scaling combination searched based on the shortest total arm length is a preferred method.

[0077] The telescopic combination is a given telescopic combination of the crane. Therefore, once the telescopic combination is determined, its working radius, rated lifting capacity, and maximum working radius can be directly obtained based on the existing performance table of the telescopic combination.

[0078] Table 1

[0079]

[0080]

[0081] Table 1 shows the performance of a given telescopic combination of a five-section boom. Each column represents the rated lifting capacity for different working radius under a given telescopic combination. In the code of a given telescopic combination, 0 indicates that the boom extension position is position 0, at which point the boom is shortest; 1 indicates that the boom extension position is position 1, and the boom length has increased. The larger the number, the longer the boom length.

[0082] Taking the current telescopic boom assembly 00001 as an example, the process of obtaining the telescopic boom assembly for querying is explained. Its total boom length is also 15.8m, but this telescopic boom assembly is not in Table 1. Therefore, it cannot be used for lifting heavy loads under normal circumstances. According to the above filtering process, telescopic boom assembly 00011 can be selected from Table 1 as the query telescopic boom assembly. Its boom length of 19.8m is greater than 15.8m, and the boom length of each section is not less than the current boom length of each section of the corresponding current telescopic boom assembly 00001.

[0083] Step 3: See Figure 2 Based on the matching relationship between the current scaling combination and the current working range, the query working range of the query scaling combination is obtained, and the calculation formula is as follows:

[0084]

[0085] Where R1 represents the query workload, R2 represents the current workload, and L b1 L represents the total arm length of the query scaling combination. b2 L represents the total arm length of the current telescopic combination; a is a structural parameter representing the horizontal distance between the lower hinge point of the boom and the center of rotation; k is an adjustment coefficient, the value of which is determined by the boom cylinder diameter and the total boom length of the telescopic combination.

[0086] Figure 5 and Figure 6 The invention presents schematic diagrams showing the total boom length and current working radius of the current telescopic combination, as well as the total boom length and query telescopic radius of a query telescopic combination. It obtains the query working radius corresponding to the current working radius based on the premise that the cosine value of the angle between the boom and the horizontal plane is equal, preparing for the next step of obtaining the performance of the current telescopic combination. The boom diameter and boom curvature affect the cosine value of the angle between the boom and the horizontal plane, which is corrected using k.

[0087] As can be seen from Table 1, the performance table does not provide the total arm length and current working radius for all angles. When the working radius cannot be calculated in the performance table, the current working radius of the current telescopic combination can be adjusted appropriately.

[0088] Step 4: Obtain the rated lifting weight and maximum working radius of the current telescopic assembly.

[0089] See Figure 2 Based on the query working radius, the query total boom length of the telescopic combination, and the query performance table of the telescopic combination, the rated lifting capacity of the crane under the current telescopic combination, current working radius, and current boom ratio can be obtained, thus yielding the performance of the current telescopic combination. The process is as follows:

[0090] Based on the performance table of the query scaling combination, obtain the query working range and the query performance corresponding to the total arm length of the query scaling combination.

[0091] Determine if the current scaling factor is less than the scaling factor corresponding to the queried telescopic combination. If so, use the minimum value between the queried performance and the maximum load capacity of the lifting rope as the rated lifting weight of the crane under the current telescopic combination, current working radius, and current scaling factor. Otherwise, use the queried performance as the rated lifting weight of the crane under the current telescopic combination, current working radius, and current scaling factor.

[0092] Based on the matching relationship between the maximum working radius of the query telescopic combination and the total arm length of the query telescopic combination, the maximum working radius of the current telescopic combination is obtained according to the total arm length of the current telescopic combination. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0093]

[0094] Among them, R 2m R represents the maximum working radius of the current telescoping combination. 1m This indicates the maximum working range of the query scaling combination.

[0095] Step 5: Store and remotely transmit the performance data of the current telescopic assembly (rated lifting capacity, maximum working radius, etc.), and record the current telescopic assembly as a given telescopic assembly with known performance. Subsequent human-machine interaction and lifting operations can then proceed. Send the performance data of the current telescopic assembly to the force limiter, which can provide safety protection for the current operation.

[0096] The crane performance enhancement method provided by this invention is not limited to specific hardware; it can be implemented within one or more hardware components, including the onboard controller, force limiter, and display. Alternatively, it can be processed in the cloud or on a server via a network connection, and the results can be transmitted to the crane. This crane performance enhancement method can be used for actual vehicle operation, as well as for pure software simulation, hardware-in-the-loop simulation, etc.

[0097] In other embodiments of the present invention, multiple query combinations can be set, and the performance tables of the multiple query scaling combinations can be combined into a composite performance table. Based on this, multiple working ranges corresponding to the current working range are obtained based on the multiple query scaling combinations and the current scaling combination, and the query working range is obtained based on the multiple working ranges. Specifically, the maximum, minimum, or average value among the multiple working ranges can be used as the query working range. Similarly, the rated lifting weight and maximum working range of the current scaling combination can be obtained by taking the larger or smaller value from the composite performance table.

[0098] Example 2

[0099] This invention also provides a crane performance enhancement system, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 4It includes a storage module 1, a current telescopic combination acquisition module 2, a query telescopic combination acquisition module 3, a query working radius acquisition module 4, a rated lifting weight acquisition module 5, a maximum working radius acquisition module 6, and a display module 7;

[0104] The rated lifting weight acquisition module is used to obtain the rated lifting weight of the crane under the current telescopic combination, current working range, and current lifting ratio based on querying the working radius, querying the total boom length of the telescopic combination, and querying the performance table of the telescopic combination.

The display module also has a human-machine interface window to facilitate operators in selecting telescopic combinations, setting and querying telescopic combinations, and selecting operating conditions.

[0107] The current scaling combination acquisition module is specifically used for,

[0108] The current total boom length is obtained based on the telescopic cylinder length detection sensor; the current boom length of each boom section is obtained based on the boom position detection sensor, cylinder pin detection sensor, and boom pin status detection sensor.

[0109] The current telescopic combination is obtained based on the current total arm length and the current arm length of each arm segment.

[0110] The module for retrieving scaling combinations is specifically used to filter and retrieve scaling combinations according to the following steps.

[0111] The current telescopic combination is compared with the given telescopic combination of the crane to obtain the candidate given telescopic combination;

[0112] Sort the candidate given scaling combinations according to the total arm length to obtain the set of candidate given scaling combinations with the shortest total arm length;

[0113] Select one given scaling combination from the set of given scaling combinations with the shortest total arm length as the query scaling combination;

[0114] The selection criteria include: the total arm length of a given telescopic combination is not less than the current total arm length of the current telescopic combination, and the arm length of each segment of a given telescopic combination is not less than the current arm length of each segment of the corresponding current telescopic combination.

[0115] Specifically, the query scaling combination acquisition module selects a given scaling combination as the query scaling combination from the set of given scaling combinations with the shortest total arm length, based on the principle of selecting the shortest or longest selected arm.

[0116] The query scaling combination acquisition module is specifically used for,

[0117] Sort the given telescopic combinations of the cranes in ascending order of total boom length;

[0118] Starting with the given scaling combination with the smallest total arm length, the current scaling combination is compared with the length of each given scaling combination in turn to obtain the first given scaling combination that meets the above filtering conditions. The first given scaling combination that meets the filtering conditions is taken as the query scaling combination.

[0119] The query workload acquisition module is used to calculate the query workload of the query scaling combination using the following formula:

[0120]

[0121] Where R1 represents the query workload, R2 represents the current workload, and L b1 L represents the total arm length of the query scaling combination. b2 L represents the total arm length of the current telescopic combination; a Here, k is a structural parameter representing the horizontal distance between the lower hinge point of the boom and the center of rotation; k is an adjustment coefficient.

[0122] The maximum working radius acquisition module is used to calculate the maximum working radius of the current telescopic combination using the following formula:

[0124] Among them, R 2m R represents the maximum working radius of the current telescoping combination. 1m This indicates the maximum working range of the query scaling combination.
