Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of mining vehicle detection technology, and in particular relates to an alarm method for a mining vehicle protection device. Background Technology
[0002] Mining truck safety devices are installed on mining trucks to ensure their safe operation. These devices acquire various data related to vehicle safety through sensors and the ECU, displaying this data to the driver in real time. Simultaneously, these data are compared to preset safety thresholds. If a threshold is exceeded, an alarm is triggered, prompting the driver to take immediate action to ensure the safety of personnel and materials. However, because different vehicle models or even the same model operating under different conditions have varying safety thresholds, manual adjustment of these thresholds is necessary when changing vehicle operating conditions or switching vehicle types, increasing labor costs. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an alarm method for a mining truck protection device, aiming to solve the problem that the safety threshold values for relevant data vary depending on the type of vehicle or the operating state of the same vehicle. Therefore, when the vehicle changes its operating state or is switched, the safety thresholds need to be manually adjusted, leading to increased labor costs.
[0004] This invention provides an alarm method for a mine car protection device, the method comprising the following steps:
[0005] Receive the driver's operation command and determine whether the operation command is an empty command;
[0006] If the operation command is an empty command, data of various parameters are obtained through sensors and ECU, and the data of the parameters are determined by random sampling method to determine whether the data of the parameters exceeds their corresponding safety threshold.
[0007] If the limit is exceeded, an alarm will be sent to the driver.
[0008] If the limit is not exceeded, all the data for the parameters will be displayed.
[0009] If the operation instruction is not an empty instruction, then the corresponding operation is performed according to the operation instruction.
[0010] Furthermore, the method of determining whether the data of the parameter exceeds its corresponding safety threshold by random sampling includes:
[0011] The criteria for determining whether sensor and ECU parameters do not exceed the threshold are:
[0012] d 2 ≤t 2 (1)
[0013] In equation (1), the error distance For dimensionless standard parameters, the average value of the sampled parameters is x i The parameter collection samples are for when there is no alarm, and n is the number of samples randomly collected, satisfying the condition that n is not less than 10;
[0014] Threshold squared t 2 This can be derived from the following formula:
[0015]
[0016] In equation (2), α is the prior probability that the threshold is not exceeded, σ is the standard deviation of the Gaussian distribution, and the parameter dimension m is 1.
[0017] Furthermore, before receiving the driver's operation command and determining whether the operation command is an empty command, the following steps are also included:
[0018] After initialization, the sensor performs a self-test to determine whether the sensor is working properly.
[0019] If the sensor is in an abnormal state, an alarm will be issued;
[0020] If the sensor is in normal condition, proceed with ECU communication initialization;
[0021] The system checks the ECU status. If the ECU status is abnormal, an alarm is issued. Otherwise, the system executes the steps described above to receive the driver's operation commands and checks whether the operation commands are empty commands.
[0022] Furthermore, the step of performing the corresponding operation according to the operation instruction includes the following steps:
[0023] Determine if the operation command is an engine shutdown command;
[0024] If it is a shutdown command, control the engine to shut off;
[0025] If it is not an engine shutdown command, then determine whether it is a reset command;
[0026] If it is a reset instruction, the total runtime is cleared and the null instruction judgment process is entered;
[0027] If it is not a reset instruction, then determine whether it is a parameter setting instruction;
[0028] If it is a parameter setting command, the parameters are written to FLASH for storage and the null command judgment process is entered.
[0029] If it is not a parameter setting instruction, then the steps described above are executed. If the operation instruction is an empty instruction, data of various parameters are obtained through sensors and ECU, and the data of the parameters are determined by random sampling method to determine whether the data of the parameters exceeds their corresponding safety threshold.
[0030] Furthermore, the sensor includes a temperature sensor, a concentration sensor, and a liquid level sensor.
[0031] Furthermore, the parameters of the sensor include coolant temperature, engine surface temperature, torque converter oil temperature, brake fluid temperature, exhaust temperature, gas concentration, carbon monoxide concentration, coolant level, and fuel level.
[0032] Furthermore, the ECU parameters include engine speed and vehicle speed.
[0033] Furthermore, the alarm notification includes:
[0034] The system reminds the driver to refuel when the fuel level in the tank is low.
[0035] Remind the driver to take a break if the water temperature is too high;
[0036] When the engine temperature gauge is too high, the driver will be alerted that the engine will be shut down.
[0037] If the gas concentration exceeds the standard, remind the driver to turn off the engine and leave the driver's seat immediately to ensure their own safety.
[0038] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0039] This invention provides an alarm method for a mining truck protection device. After acquiring data of various parameters through sensors and ECU, a random sampling method is used to determine whether the data of each parameter exceeds the safety threshold. This method can solve the problem of parameter fine-tuning for different vehicles, or even the same vehicle under different operating conditions, and realize the automatic setting of the threshold size of the same type of parameter, thus eliminating the need for manual parameter setting.
