[0062] Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments according to this application will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments of this application. It should be understood that this application is not limited to the exemplary embodiments described herein.

[0063] Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a method for evaluating the hydraulic efficiency of a hydraulic cylinder, provided as an exemplary embodiment of this application. Figure 1 As shown, the hydraulic efficiency evaluation method for hydraulic cylinders provided in this application embodiment may include:

[0064] S310: Obtain the current emission characteristics of the vehicle to be evaluated.

[0065] Specifically, the emission characteristic value can be understood as the coverage area of ​​the hydraulic cylinder's electric proportional displacement within the current threshold range during a first preset time period.

[0066] In one embodiment, the first preset duration corresponds to different time periods depending on the reference time node. For example, if the current time node is used as the reference time node, the first preset duration may include 5 days, 10 days, 15 days, etc., before the current time node; if the 30th day after the vehicle to be evaluated is put into production is used as the reference time node, the first preset duration may include 5 days, 10 days, 15 days, etc., before the 30th day after the production work begins.

[0067] In one embodiment, the first preset duration may also include the past 100 hours, the past 200 hours, the past 500 hours, etc., before the reference time node.

[0068] It should be noted that the electro-proportional displacement tends to increase with the increase of current (all currents mentioned in this article refer to the electro-proportional valve current). Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of an electric proportional displacement curve provided for an exemplary embodiment of this application. Figure 2 As shown, in a rectangular coordinate system, with current as the horizontal axis and electric proportional displacement as the vertical axis, the curve showing the relationship between current and electric proportional displacement within a first preset time period is an upward-sloping curve.

[0069] It should be noted that, in Figure 2 In this context, the aforementioned emission characteristic value is the area enclosed by the electric proportional emission curve and the corresponding current threshold range (e.g., Figure 2 The area of ​​the shaded region indicated by the middle arrow E). Taking the case where the curvature of the electric proportional displacement curve is zero (the electric proportional displacement curve is a straight line) as an example:

[0070]

[0071] Where S represents the area enclosed by the electric proportional displacement curve and the corresponding current range, i.e., the emission characteristic value; a represents one of the current thresholds within the first preset time period; b represents another current threshold within the first preset time period; P a P represents the proportional displacement corresponding to the current threshold a; b Characterizes the proportional displacement corresponding to the current threshold b.

[0072] It should be understood that when the curvature of the electric proportional displacement curve is not zero, the area enclosed by the electric proportional displacement curve and the corresponding current threshold range can also be obtained through integration, i.e., the emission characteristic value.

[0073] It should be understood that both the electric proportional displacement and the current are important factors affecting the hydraulic efficiency of the cylinder. When calculating the emission characteristic value, both the electric proportional displacement and the current are taken into account. This provides a larger amount of data for reference, and the accuracy of the hydraulic efficiency of the cylinder obtained by applying the emission characteristic value will be higher.

[0074] It should be noted that the emission characteristic values ​​of different vehicles are evaluated using the hydraulic cylinders of different vehicles. For example, the current emission characteristic value of the vehicle to be evaluated mentioned above is evaluated using the hydraulic cylinders of the vehicle to be evaluated. The emission characteristic value of the target vehicle mentioned later is evaluated using the hydraulic cylinders of the target vehicle. Similarly, the emission characteristic value of the reference vehicle mentioned later is evaluated using the hydraulic cylinders of the reference vehicle.

[0075] It should be noted that the calculation process for emission characteristic values ​​is similar for different vehicles, and the calculation process for emission characteristic values ​​will be described in detail later.

[0076] S320: Obtain the first reference standard value.

[0077] Specifically, the first reference standard value can be understood as the emission characteristic value of the target vehicle within a first historical period, and the target vehicle is the same model as the vehicle being evaluated. Subsequently, using the first reference standard value as one of the evaluation criteria for assessing the hydraulic efficiency of the vehicle's cylinders can fully leverage the inherent advantages of data from manufacturers of the same model, further improving the accuracy of the hydraulic efficiency assessment results.

[0078] In one embodiment, there can be multiple reference vehicles of the same model as the vehicle to be evaluated. One of the multiple reference vehicles can be selected as the target vehicle. The specific selection process will be described in detail later.

[0079] In one embodiment, the number of reference vehicles of the same model as the vehicle to be evaluated is one, which can be used as the aforementioned target vehicle.

[0080] It should be noted that there can be multiple emission characteristic values ​​of the target vehicle within the first historical period, and one of these emission characteristic values ​​can be selected as the first reference standard value. In one embodiment, the maximum emission characteristic value of the target vehicle within the first historical period can be selected as the first reference standard value, which better characterizes the emission characteristics of the target vehicle.

[0081] S330: Obtain the second reference standard value.

[0082] Specifically, the second reference standard value can be understood as the emission characteristic value of the vehicle under evaluation within a second historical period. The preset historical period can be selected within the range from when the vehicle under evaluation rolled off the production line to the current time point; the specific selection process will be described in detail later.

[0083] It should be understood that using the second reference standard value as one of the evaluation standards for assessing the hydraulic efficiency of the vehicle under evaluation can give full play to the inherent advantages of the manufacturer's data for the vehicle under evaluation, and further improve the accuracy of the hydraulic efficiency assessment results.

[0084] It should be noted that there can be multiple emission characteristic values ​​of the vehicle under evaluation during the second historical period, and one of these emission characteristic values ​​can be selected as the second reference standard value. In one embodiment, the maximum emission characteristic value of the vehicle under evaluation during the second historical period can be selected as the second reference standard value, which better characterizes the emission characteristics of the vehicle under evaluation during the historical operating phase.

[0085] It should be noted that steps S310, S320 and S330 are not executed in any particular order. Any one or two of the three can be executed first, or all three can be executed simultaneously.

[0086] S340: Based on the current emission characteristic value of the vehicle to be evaluated, the first reference standard value, and the second reference standard value, the hydraulic efficiency evaluation value of the cylinder of the vehicle to be evaluated is obtained.

[0087] It should be understood that in the process of calculating the hydraulic efficiency assessment value of the vehicle under evaluation, the current emission characteristic value, the first reference standard value, and the second reference standard value of the vehicle under evaluation were taken into account. This not only comprehensively considered both the electric proportional displacement and current factors, increasing the amount of reference data, but also fully utilized the advantages of the original data of vehicles of the same model as the vehicle under evaluation and the vehicle under evaluation itself, effectively improving the accuracy of the hydraulic efficiency assessment result of the vehicle under evaluation.

[0088] Furthermore, it should be understood that the process of executing steps S310, S320, S330, and S340 does not require additional sensor data to obtain the evaluation value of the hydraulic efficiency of the vehicle's cylinder. In other words, compared with the solution of adding additional sensors in related technologies, the hydraulic efficiency evaluation method of the cylinder provided in this application embodiment does not require additional sensors, effectively reducing costs.

[0089] It should be noted that the calculation rules for the hydraulic cylinder efficiency assessment value of the vehicle under evaluation can be set according to the actual situation. There are various calculation rules, as long as the calculation rules can fully reflect the impact of the current emission characteristic value, the first reference standard value, and the second reference standard value of the vehicle under evaluation on the hydraulic cylinder efficiency assessment value. For example:

[0090]

[0091] Wherein, efficent represents the hydraulic efficiency of the vehicle's cylinder; st represents the current emission characteristic value of the vehicle; sh represents the first reference standard value; and sv represents the second reference standard value.

[0092] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the process of obtaining the current emission characteristic values ​​of a vehicle to be evaluated, provided as an exemplary embodiment of this application. Figure 3 As shown, step S310 includes:

[0093] S311: Obtain the cylinder operating condition data of the vehicle to be evaluated within the first preset time period.

[0094] S312: Based on the cylinder operating data, obtain the current emission characteristic value of the vehicle to be evaluated.

[0095] Specifically, cylinder operating data can include cylinder operating timestamps, cylinder displacement, electro-proportional valve current, engine speed, etc. It should be understood that cylinder operating data can be obtained through the vehicle's native systems and sensors, without the need for additional sensors.

[0096] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a process for obtaining the current emission characteristic values ​​of a vehicle to be evaluated based on cylinder operating condition data, provided as an exemplary embodiment of this application. Figure 4 As shown, step S312 includes:

[0097] S3121: Establish a relational model based on the hydraulic cylinder operating data.

[0098] It should be noted that the relational model can be understood as the correspondence between the electric proportional displacement and the current within a first preset time period. Generally, this relational model can be obtained by fitting a large amount of hydraulic cylinder operating data. The process of establishing the relational model will be described in detail later.

[0099] S3122: Based on the relationship model and current threshold, obtain the current emission characteristic value of the vehicle to be evaluated.

[0100] Specifically, within a first preset time period, the hydraulic cylinder operates continuously, and the control current changes constantly. From the acquired hydraulic cylinder operating data, a current threshold can be selected according to requirements. The current threshold is input into a relational model, and by running the model, the electric proportional displacement corresponding to the current threshold within the first preset time period can be calculated.

[0101] Specifically, referring to the preceding text, if the curvature of the electric proportional displacement curve is zero (the electric proportional displacement curve is a straight line), the emission characteristic value can be calculated using the following formula:

[0102]

[0103] If the curvature of the electric proportional displacement curve is not zero, the area enclosed by the electric proportional displacement curve and the corresponding current range can be obtained through integration, which is the emission characteristic value.

[0104] Figure 5 This is a flowchart illustrating the process of establishing a relational model based on hydraulic cylinder operating condition data, provided as an exemplary embodiment of this application. Figure 5 As shown, step S3121 includes:

[0105] S31211: Divide the hydraulic cylinder operating data into operating data corresponding to multiple working segments.

[0106] Specifically, the hydraulic cylinder operating data can be divided into multiple working segments according to the displacement of the hydraulic cylinder. Each stroke of the hydraulic cylinder can be divided into a working segment, and the operating data of the hydraulic cylinder in each stroke is the operating data corresponding to that working segment.

[0107] In one embodiment, the hydraulic cylinder operating data can also be divided into multiple working segments according to the number of times the hydraulic cylinder reverses. For example, every two reversals of the hydraulic cylinder can be divided into one working segment.

[0108] S31212: Based on the operating condition data corresponding to multiple working sections, obtain the electric proportional displacement and current corresponding to different working sections.

[0109] Specifically, the formula for calculating the electric proportional displacement corresponding to different working sections can be:

[0110]

[0111] Where p represents the electric proportional displacement; ΔL represents the cylinder displacement; S represents the cylinder cross-sectional area; Δt represents the displacement time; and r represents the engine speed.

[0112] It should be understood that the cylinder displacement, cylinder cross-sectional area, displacement time, and engine speed can all be obtained from the operating condition data of each working segment.

[0113] It should be noted that the current in step S31212 can be obtained by calculating the average value of multiple currents within the corresponding working segment. In one embodiment, the currents corresponding to multiple time nodes can be obtained, and then the average value can be calculated to obtain the final current.

[0114] In one embodiment, one current can be selected from multiple currents corresponding to multiple time points as the final current.

[0115] In one embodiment, since the time span of each working segment is short, to improve the calculation efficiency of the average current, the average current can be calculated based on the current corresponding to the start node and the current corresponding to the end node of each working segment. That is:

[0116]

[0117] Where Is represents the average current; I t1 Characterizes the current corresponding to the starting node of each working segment; I t2 This characterizes the current at the end node of each working segment.

[0118] S31213: Establish a relational model based on the electric proportional displacement and current corresponding to multiple working sections.

[0119] Specifically, each working segment corresponds to an electric proportional displacement and a current. Based on the electric proportional displacement and current corresponding to multiple working segments, a relationship model between the electric proportional displacement and the current can be established.

[0120] Figure 6 This is a flowchart illustrating the process of establishing a relational model based on hydraulic cylinder operating condition data, provided as another exemplary embodiment of this application. Figure 6 As shown, after step S31211, step S3121 further includes:

[0121] S31214: Remove the target sub-duration and the corresponding working condition data of the work segment.

[0122] S31215: Based on the number of target sub-durations that have been removed, supplement the same number of sub-durations and the corresponding working condition data of multiple working segments from the cylinder history data of the vehicle to be evaluated.

[0123] Specifically, the first preset duration includes multiple sub-durations, and each sub-duration includes multiple work segments. For example, the first preset duration is the past 10 days of the current time node, the sub-duration is 1 day, and each day includes multiple work segments.

[0124] It should be noted that if the number of work segments included in the target sub-time period is less than the number threshold, then it can be considered that the working condition data included in the target sub-time period is too small to form effective data. In this case, the working condition data of the target sub-time period and its corresponding work segments can be removed from multiple sub-time periods.

[0125] After completing the elimination step, the number of target sub-durations to be eliminated can be determined. Then, the same number of sub-durations and corresponding working condition data of multiple working segments can be supplemented from the cylinder history data of the vehicle to be evaluated. This ensures that a sufficient number of effective working condition data are provided, thereby effectively ensuring the accuracy of the subsequent relationship model.

[0126] Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the process of obtaining a first reference standard value, provided for an exemplary embodiment of this application. Figure 7 As shown, step S320 includes:

[0127] S321: Obtain multiple emission characteristic values ​​corresponding to multiple operating durations of multiple reference vehicles within the first historical time period.

[0128] It should be noted that the multiple reference vehicles are all of the same model as the vehicle to be evaluated, and each reference vehicle has an emission characteristic value corresponding to each operating time. The calculation process is similar to the calculation process of the current emission characteristic value of the aforementioned vehicle to be evaluated.

[0129] In one embodiment, if the reference vehicle has been in operation for n days, one day is taken as a reference time node. The first preset duration before this reference time node can be understood as one of the operating durations within the aforementioned first historical duration. Different reference time nodes correspond to different operating durations within the first historical duration. For example, if the reference vehicle has been in operation for 30 days, the 20th day of operation is taken as the reference time node. The 10 days before this reference time node can be considered as one of the operating durations within the first historical duration. It is worth noting that "10 days" here can be understood as the aforementioned first preset duration. It should be understood that by using different time nodes as reference time nodes, multiple operating durations within the first historical duration can be obtained, and the emission characteristic value corresponding to each operating duration within the first historical duration can be calculated.

[0130] S322: Based on multiple emission characteristic values ​​of multiple reference vehicles, obtain the performance characteristic values ​​of different reference vehicles.

[0131] S323: Select the reference vehicle with the largest performance characteristic value as the target vehicle, and take the largest emission characteristic value of the target vehicle as the first reference standard value.

[0132] It should be noted that each reference vehicle has corresponding emission characteristic values ​​for different operating durations. To obtain the first reference standard value, it is necessary to select the most representative reference vehicle and its corresponding emission characteristic value from multiple reference vehicles. Step S322 involves calculating multiple emission characteristic values ​​for each reference vehicle according to certain rules to obtain performance characteristic values ​​that reflect the superiority and stability of the reference vehicle's cylinder performance. Then, step S323 is executed to select the reference vehicle with the largest performance characteristic value as the target vehicle, and the maximum emission characteristic value of the target vehicle is used as the first reference standard value.

[0133] It should be noted that the calculation rules for performance characteristic values ​​derived from multiple emission characteristic values ​​can be set according to actual conditions, as long as the calculation results can be used to evaluate the excellence and stability of the hydraulic cylinder performance. For example, the formula for calculating performance characteristic values ​​can be:

[0134] score i =max(si) / log(std(si));

[0135] Among them, score i The maximum emission characteristic value is represented by max(si); the maximum emission characteristic value is represented by std(si); the standard deviation of multiple emission characteristic values ​​is represented by std(si).

[0136] It should be understood that, through the above formula, the performance characteristic value corresponding to each reference vehicle can be calculated, and then the reference vehicle corresponding to the maximum performance characteristic value is determined as the target vehicle, and the largest emission characteristic value among the target vehicles is taken as the first reference characteristic value.

[0137] Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the process of obtaining a second reference standard value, provided for an exemplary embodiment of this application. For example... Figure 8 As shown, step S330 may include:

[0138] S331: Obtain multiple emission characteristic values ​​corresponding to multiple operating durations of the vehicle to be evaluated within the second historical period.

[0139] S332: Select the largest emission characteristic value from multiple emission characteristic values ​​corresponding to multiple operation durations within the second historical period as the second reference standard value.

[0140] Specifically, based on the cylinder operating condition data of the vehicle under evaluation during multiple operating periods within the second historical period, multiple emission characteristic values ​​corresponding to different operating periods can be obtained.

[0141] When evaluating a vehicle from its initial production start date to the current time, one day is used as a reference time point. The first preset duration before this reference time point can be understood as one of the operating durations within the aforementioned second historical duration. Different reference time points correspond to different operating durations within the second historical duration. For example, if the time from the initial production start date to the current time point is one year, the 100th day of that year is used as the reference time point. The 10 days before this reference time point can be considered as one of the operating durations within the second historical duration. It is worth noting that "10 days" here can be understood as the aforementioned first preset duration. It should be understood that by using different time points as reference time points, multiple operating durations within the second historical duration can be obtained, and thus, the emission characteristic value corresponding to each operating duration within the second historical duration can be obtained.

[0142] Step S332 is executed, where the largest emission characteristic value is used as the second reference standard value, which can represent the best state of cylinder performance during the historical operation of the vehicle to be evaluated.

[0143] Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the process of obtaining a second reference standard value, provided as another exemplary embodiment of this application. (See diagram below.) Figure 9 As shown, after step S331, step S330 further includes:

[0144] S333: Based on the preset rejection rules, reject abnormal emission characteristic values.

[0145] Correspondingly, step S332 includes:

[0146] S3321: Select the largest emission characteristic value from the remaining multiple emission characteristic values ​​as the second reference standard value.

[0147] Specifically, the preset rejection rules can be set according to the actual situation. For example, if the emission characteristic value is greater than the first threshold, the emission characteristic value can be considered abnormal and rejected. Similarly, if the emission characteristic value is less than the second threshold, the emission characteristic value can also be considered abnormal and rejected.

[0148] It should be understood that performing steps S333 and S3321 can ensure the validity of the emission characteristic values, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the second reference standard value.

[0149] Figure 10 A schematic flowchart illustrating a method for evaluating the hydraulic efficiency of a cylinder, provided as another exemplary embodiment of this application. Figure 10As shown, after step S340, the hydraulic efficiency evaluation method for the cylinder may further include:

[0150] S350: If the hydraulic efficiency evaluation value of the cylinder is greater than or equal to the efficiency threshold, output a signal that the hydraulic efficiency evaluation value of the cylinder is qualified.

[0151] S360: If the hydraulic efficiency assessment value of the cylinder is less than the efficiency threshold, output a signal indicating a fault in the hydraulic system of the cylinder.

[0152] Specifically, after executing step S340, the hydraulic system can be assessed based on the hydraulic efficiency evaluation value obtained in step S340 to determine whether a fault has occurred in the hydraulic system. Specifically, if the hydraulic efficiency evaluation value is greater than or equal to the efficiency threshold, a signal indicating that the hydraulic system is functioning normally and without fault can be output. If the hydraulic efficiency evaluation value is less than the efficiency threshold, the hydraulic system is considered not to have achieved the corresponding working effect, indicating a fault in the hydraulic system, and a signal indicating a fault in the hydraulic system can be output.

[0153] In one embodiment, for both steps S350 and S360, only one may be performed in practice.
