Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of engineering machinery technology, specifically to a method, controller and control system for fixed-amplitude lifting control of a luffing tower crane. Background Technology

[0002] During the lifting process of a luffing jib tower crane, the deformation of the jib tip increases the distance between the hook and the center of rotation, resulting in oblique pulling and lifting. This also increases the torque on the jib, potentially exceeding the torque limit, thus affecting lifting operations. These oblique pulling, lifting, and excessive torque phenomena are even more pronounced during heavy load lifting, posing a significant challenge for luffing jib tower cranes during operations.

[0003] In the existing technology, the lifting of luffing jib tower cranes relies entirely on the operator's experience, which places high demands on the driver and carries significant risks. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a method, controller, and control system for fixed-amplitude lifting control of a luffing jib tower crane, in order to solve the problem that during the lifting process of a luffing jib tower crane, the deformation of the jib tip causes the distance between the hook and the center of rotation to increase, resulting in oblique lifting.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the first aspect of this application provides a method for controlling the constant-amplitude hoisting of a luffing jib tower crane, applied to a controller of a constant-amplitude hoisting system of a luffing jib tower crane, the method comprising:

[0006] Obtain the structural geometric model of the luffing jib tower crane;

[0007] A finite element model is established based on the structural geometric model of the luffing jib tower crane;

[0008] The target relationship model for the hook amplitude deviation of the luffing jib tower crane is determined based on the finite element model.

[0009] During the lifting and hoisting process of the luffing jib tower crane, the hook amplitude deviation is calculated in real time based on the target relationship model;

[0010] Based on the hook amplitude deviation, the luffing tower crane is controlled to perform luffing operations to compensate for the hook amplitude deviation, so as to ensure that the hook amplitude remains unchanged during the lifting and hoisting process.

[0011] In this embodiment of the application, the target relationship model for determining the hook amplitude deviation of the luffing jib tower crane based on the finite element model includes:

[0012] Finite element analysis was performed on the boom elevation angle, load, boom length and tower height to obtain the initial relationship model of hook amplitude deviation.

[0013] The parameters of the initial relationship model of hook amplitude deviation are corrected by pre-set experiments to obtain the target relationship model of hook amplitude deviation.

[0014] In this embodiment of the application, the preset experiment is a fixed-amplitude lifting experiment of a luffing tower crane under different combinations of boom elevation angle, hook load, boom length and tower height.

[0015] In this embodiment, the target relationship model of the hook amplitude deviation satisfies formula (1):

[0016] R = f(α, W, L, H); (1)

[0017] Where R is the hook amplitude deviation; α is the boom elevation angle; W is the hook load; L is the boom length; and H is the tower height.

[0018] In this embodiment of the application, during the lifting and hoisting process of the luffing jib tower crane, the hook amplitude deviation is calculated in real time according to the target relationship model, including:

[0019] During the lifting and hoisting process of the luffing tower crane, the boom elevation angle, hook load, boom length, and tower height are acquired in real time, and the hook amplitude deviation is calculated based on the target relationship model.

[0020] In this embodiment, based on the hook amplitude deviation, the luffing tower crane is controlled to perform luffing operations to compensate for the hook amplitude deviation, so as to ensure that the hook amplitude remains constant during the lifting and hoisting process. This includes:

[0021] Control the luffing motor to perform luffing operations at the luffing speed rLimitSpeed;

[0022] The variable speed rLimitSpeed ​​satisfies formula (2):

[0023]

[0024] Where rLimitSpeed_Horizontal is the maximum speed allowed in the horizontal direction of the luffing motor at its current position; R is the hook amplitude deviation; rStoptime is the time required for the luffing motor to decompose from its current speed to zero speed in the horizontal direction; rDelaytime is the communication delay time plus the program execution time; rLimitSpeed ​​is the luffing speed; and α is the boom elevation angle.

[0025] A second aspect of this application provides a controller, characterized in that it comprises:

[0026] The memory is configured to store instructions; and

[0027] The processor is configured to retrieve the instructions from the memory and, when executing the instructions, to implement the method for fixed-width hoisting control of the luffing tower crane as described above.

[0035] The fifth aspect of this application provides a machine-readable storage medium storing instructions for causing a machine to perform the above-described method for controlling the constant-amplitude hoisting of a luffing tower crane.

[0036] The above technical solution first obtains the structural geometric model of the luffing jib tower crane, then establishes a finite element model based on this model, and finally determines the target relationship model for the hook amplitude deviation based on the finite element model. During the lifting and hoisting process of the luffing jib tower crane, the hook amplitude deviation is calculated in real time according to the target relationship model. Finally, based on the hook amplitude deviation, the luffing jib tower crane is controlled to perform luffing maneuvers to compensate for the hook amplitude deviation, ensuring that the hook amplitude remains constant during the lifting and hoisting process.

[0052] Figure 1 A flowchart illustrating a method for controlling the constant-amplitude hoisting of a luffing tower crane according to an embodiment of this application is shown schematically. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application provides a method for controlling the fixed-width hoisting of a luffing tower crane, which is applied to the controller of the fixed-width hoisting system of the luffing tower crane. The method may include the following steps.

[0053] Step 101: Obtain the structural geometric model of the luffing jib tower crane;

[0054] Step 102: Establish a finite element model based on the structural geometric model of the luffing jib tower crane;

[0055] Step 103: Determine the target relationship model for the hook amplitude deviation of the luffing jib tower crane based on the finite element model;

[0056] Step 104: During the lifting and hoisting process of the luffing jib tower crane, calculate the hook amplitude deviation in real time according to the target relationship model;

[0057] Step 105: Based on the hook amplitude deviation, control the luffing tower crane to perform luffing action to compensate for the hook amplitude deviation, so as to ensure that the hook amplitude remains unchanged during the lifting and hoisting process.

[0058] The luffing tower crane constant-amplitude lifting control method in this embodiment is applied to the controller of the luffing tower crane constant-amplitude lifting system. The controller interacts with the frequency converter, tilt sensor, and absolute encoder via CANOPEN communication and performs calculations based on the received data. The controller first acquires the structural geometric model of the luffing tower crane, then performs finite element analysis on the model to obtain a target relationship model between the hook amplitude deviation caused by the deformation of the jib tip during the lifting process and the jib elevation angle, load, jib length, and tower height. During the lifting and load-lifting process of the luffing tower crane, the controller acquires the jib elevation angle, hook load, jib length, and tower height in real time. Then, through the target relationship model, it calculates the hook amplitude deviation in real time. Based on the hook amplitude deviation, it controls the luffing tower crane to perform luffing actions (raising and lowering the jib) to counteract the deformation of the jib tip during the lifting process, ensuring that the horizontal position change of the hook is within the allowable error range, i.e., ensuring that the hook amplitude deviation is within the error range. In other words, compensation is made for the deviation of the hook amplitude to ensure that the hook amplitude remains unchanged during the lifting and hoisting process.

[0059] The above technical solution first obtains the structural geometric model of the luffing jib tower crane, then establishes a finite element model based on this model, and finally determines the target relationship model for the hook amplitude deviation based on the finite element model. During the lifting and hoisting process of the luffing jib tower crane, the hook amplitude deviation is calculated in real time according to the target relationship model. Finally, based on the hook amplitude deviation, the luffing jib tower crane is controlled to perform luffing maneuvers to compensate for the hook amplitude deviation, ensuring that the hook amplitude remains constant during the lifting and hoisting process. This application compensates for the amplitude deviation caused by load deformation by controlling the luffing jib tower crane to perform luffing maneuvers, avoiding the occurrence of oblique pulling and lifting during the lifting process and preventing excessive torque. Simultaneously, the compensation process based on the target relationship model is smooth, avoiding over-compensation or under-compensation, thus reducing the requirements for the operator.

[0060] In this embodiment of the application, the target relationship model for determining the hook amplitude deviation of a luffing jib tower crane based on the finite element model may include:

[0061] Finite element analysis was performed on the boom elevation angle, load, boom length and tower height to obtain the initial relationship model of hook amplitude deviation.

[0062] The parameters of the initial relationship model of hook amplitude deviation are corrected by pre-set experiments to obtain the target relationship model of hook amplitude deviation.

[0063] In this embodiment, the target relationship model of the hook amplitude deviation satisfies formula (1):

[0064] R = f(α, W, L, H); (1)

[0065] Where R is the hook amplitude deviation; α is the boom elevation angle; W is the hook load; L is the boom length; and H is the tower height.

[0066] In this embodiment, a finite element model can be established using a computer based on the structural geometric model of the luffing jib tower crane. Then, finite element analysis is performed for different jib elevation angles, different loads, different jib lengths, and different tower heights to obtain a target relationship model for the hook amplitude deviation caused by jib tip deformation. In other words, the target relationship model is obtained by modeling and analyzing the load deformation of the luffing jib tower crane. The hook amplitude deviation refers to the distance between the slewing center and the hook center after jib tip deformation minus the distance between the slewing center and the hook center before jib tip deformation.

[0067] In the embodiments of this application, the preset experiment can be a fixed-amplitude lifting experiment of a luffing tower crane under different combinations of boom elevation angle, hook load, boom length and tower height.

[0068] In this embodiment, after obtaining the initial relational model, to ensure its accuracy, the parameters of the initial relational model need to be corrected to obtain the final target relational model. Specifically, a series of field experiments, i.e., pre-set experiments, can be conducted to iterate the parameters of the initial model to obtain a target initial model that meets the accuracy requirements. These pre-set experiments refer to luffing tower crane fixed-amplitude lifting experiments under different combinations of boom elevation angles, hook loads, boom lengths, and tower heights.

[0069] In this embodiment of the application, during the lifting and hoisting process of the luffing jib tower crane, the hook amplitude deviation is calculated in real time according to the target relationship model, which may include:

[0070] During the lifting and hoisting process of the luffing tower crane, the boom elevation angle, hook load, boom length, and tower height are acquired in real time, and the hook amplitude deviation is calculated based on the target relationship model.

[0071] In this embodiment, during the lifting and hoisting process of the luffing tower crane, the controller can acquire the boom elevation angle, hook load, boom length, and tower height in real time. Then, it calculates the hook amplitude deviation through the target relationship model so that the boom tip deformation during the lifting and hoisting process can be offset by controlling the luffing tower crane's luffing and hoisting actions. This ensures that the horizontal position change of the hook is within the allowable error range, which means ensuring that the hook amplitude deviation is within the error range.

[0072] In this embodiment, based on the hook amplitude deviation, the luffing tower crane is controlled to perform luffing operations to compensate for the hook amplitude deviation, so as to ensure that the hook amplitude remains constant during the lifting and hoisting process. This may include:

[0073] Control the luffing motor to perform luffing operations at the luffing speed rLimitSpeed;

[0074] The variable speed rLimitSpeed ​​satisfies formula (2):

[0075]

[0076] Where rLimitSpeed_Horizontal is the maximum speed allowed in the horizontal direction of the luffing motor at its current position; R is the hook amplitude deviation; rStoptime is the time required for the luffing motor to decompose from its current speed to zero speed in the horizontal direction; rDelaytime is the communication delay time plus the program execution time; rLimitSpeed ​​is the luffing speed; and α is the boom elevation angle.

[0077] In this embodiment, the luffing and lowering actions of the tower crane can compensate for the deformation of the jib tip during the lifting process, thus compensating for hook amplitude deviation and ensuring that the horizontal position change of the hook remains within the allowable error range, i.e., the hook amplitude remains constant during lifting. The luffing speed can be dynamically adjusted during the luffing operation. When compensating for amplitude deviation caused by load deformation, the smaller the deviation, the smaller the compensation speed, until it becomes zero, thus preventing over-compensation or under-compensation. This reduces the requirements for the operator and improves work efficiency. Specifically, the controller receives signals from the tilt sensor and the luffing absolute encoder in real time, then determines the maximum allowable horizontal speed of the luffing motor at its current position based on these signals, and further determines the maximum allowable speed of the luffing motor at its current position based on the maximum allowable horizontal speed of the luffing motor at its current position. The maximum speed allowed at the current position of the luffing motor is sent to the luffing frequency converter. Finally, the speed of the luffing motor is dynamically adjusted by the luffing frequency converter based on the maximum speed allowed at the current position of the luffing motor.

[0086] Based on the hook amplitude deviation, the luffing tower crane is controlled to perform luffing operations to compensate for the hook amplitude deviation, so as to ensure that the hook amplitude remains unchanged during the lifting and hoisting process.

[0087] Furthermore, the processor 220 can also be configured to:

[0088] Finite element analysis was performed on the boom elevation angle, load, boom length and tower height to obtain the initial relationship model of hook amplitude deviation.

[0090] In this embodiment of the application, the preset experiment is a fixed-amplitude lifting experiment of a luffing tower crane under different combinations of boom elevation angle, hook load, boom length and tower height.

[0091] In this embodiment, the target relationship model of the hook amplitude deviation satisfies formula (1):

[0092] R = f(α, W, L, H); (1)

[0093] Where R is the hook amplitude deviation; α is the boom elevation angle; W is the hook load; L is the boom length; and H is the tower height.

[0094] Furthermore, the processor 220 can also be configured to:

[0095] During the lifting and hoisting process of the luffing tower crane, the boom elevation angle, hook load, boom length, and tower height are acquired in real time, and the hook amplitude deviation is calculated based on the target relationship model.

[0096] Furthermore, the processor 220 can also be configured to:

[0097] Control the luffing motor to perform luffing operations at the luffing speed rLimitSpeed;

[0098] The variable speed rLimitSpeed ​​satisfies formula (1):

[0099]

[0101] The above technical solution first obtains the structural geometric model of the luffing jib tower crane, then establishes a finite element model based on this model, and finally determines the target relationship model for the hook amplitude deviation based on the finite element model. During the lifting and hoisting process of the luffing jib tower crane, the hook amplitude deviation is calculated in real time according to the target relationship model. Finally, based on the hook amplitude deviation, the luffing jib tower crane is controlled to perform luffing maneuvers to compensate for the hook amplitude deviation, ensuring that the hook amplitude remains constant during the lifting and hoisting process. This application compensates for the amplitude deviation caused by load deformation by controlling the luffing jib tower crane to perform luffing maneuvers, avoiding the occurrence of oblique pulling and lifting during the lifting process and preventing excessive torque. Simultaneously, the compensation process based on the target relationship model is smooth, avoiding over-compensation or under-compensation, thus reducing the requirements for the operator.
