Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of amphibious special vehicle technology, and more specifically, it relates to a steering control method for a special vehicle's single front axle wheel and track composite walking system. Background Technology

[0002] Amphibious special vehicles possess characteristics such as "rapid and concealed movement on water, maneuverability and flexibility on land, and unique mobility at the interface between land and water," thus demonstrating their significant importance in both civilian transportation and military applications. The application of a wheel-track hybrid system in amphibious special vehicles enhances their mobility on beaches, ensuring efficient transportation needs. When these vehicles operate on beaches, the wheel-track hybrid system necessitates precise control of the driving force matching between the wheels and tracks during steering. This is crucial to preventing wheels from dragging tracks or tracks from dragging wheels, thereby reducing additional load on structural components and minimizing wheel and track wear. Currently, there is no information on wheel-track hybrid system control for the matching of driving force between the wheels and tracks during steering, making it impossible to prevent wheels from dragging tracks or tracks from dragging wheels, and thus failing to reduce additional load on structural components and minimize wheel and track wear.

[0003] Existing technology includes a tracked vehicle chassis entitled "A Tracked Vehicle Chassis for High-Speed ​​Travel," with publication number CN111572658B. This technology discloses a tracked vehicle chassis for high-speed travel, belonging to the field of chassis frame design and manufacturing technology. It includes a support mechanism, a walking mechanism, a vibration damping mechanism, a tensioning mechanism, and a drive mechanism. The drive mechanism uses axle-shaped drive wheels, working in conjunction with rubber toothed tracks and a high-speed hydraulic motor for high-speed travel. The walking mechanism includes end wheels and middle wheels, both movably connected to the support mechanism via damping springs and damping side plates of the vibration damping mechanism. The end damping mechanisms drive the wheels, buffering the downward recoil force and providing vibration damping. The middle damping mechanism reduces vertical vibration, and the two pairs of middle wheels further stabilize the vehicle's center of gravity. The tensioning mechanism tensions the tracks, and under the drive mechanism, the wheels work together to ensure stable vehicle movement. Additionally, limit grooves are provided below the end wheels to correct the relative position of the tracks and wheels, further ensuring stable vehicle operation. This technology does not address the issues and solutions of this application. Summary of the Invention

[0025] (1) Steering angle δ of the outer wheel o Geometric relationships that conform to the formula

[0026]

[0027] According to equation (1) above, we get:

[0028]

[0029] (2) Steering angle δ of the inner wheel i Geometric relationships that conform to the formula

[0030]

[0031] (3) Based on the steering angle δ o With δ iFrom the geometric relationships, the turning radius R of the track can be obtained, that is:

[0032]

[0033] (4) Substitute R into the formula to obtain the distance between the equivalent track pivot point and the front axle, i.e.:

[0034]

[0035] Calculation of the turning radius of the wheel:

[0036] The turning radius R of the outer turning wheel is obtained in terms of the track turning radius R. wo :

[0037]

[0038] Similarly, the turning radius R of the inner wheel, expressed in terms of the track turning radius R, is obtained. wi :

[0039]

[0040] The rolling resistance coefficient of the wheel is quite close to the ground deformation resistance coefficient of the track. In this patent, the same value is used as the driving resistance coefficient f (this coefficient is obtained from tests on different road surfaces), that is:

[0041] The driving resistance of a single wheel is transmitted through the axle load G. w The following can be obtained from the drag coefficient f:

[0042]

[0043] The running resistance of a single track can be controlled by the track normal load G. t The following can be obtained from the drag coefficient f:

[0044]

[0045] Calculation of track steering resistance:

[0046] The assumption is adopted that the tracked normal load is uniformly distributed along the ground contact section, i.e., the load pattern is rectangular; the ground turning resistance F z and normal load G t It is directly proportional, and its proportionality coefficient is represented by the steering resistance coefficient μ.

[0047]

[0048] Draw the normal load diagram and steering resistance distribution diagram of the grounding section, and then calculate the steering resistance at the front and rear of the grounding section;

[0061] Since the vehicle rotates around point O, F ts1 With F ts2 The direction of action is exactly the opposite, the direction is as follows: Figure 1 As shown.

[0062] The steering resistance coefficient μ is calculated using formula (8):

[0063]

[0064] Where μ max This is the maximum steering resistance coefficient on the road surface, obtained from tests on different road surfaces.

[0065] The following three equations (18), (19), and (20) are obtained, which are the equilibrium equations for the x-direction force, y-direction force, and z-direction moment about point o in the Cartesian coordinate system:

[0066] F x =F w (sinδ o +sinδ i )-(F so -F rw cosδ o -(F si -F rw cosδ i -F to -F ti =0 Equation (18)

[0067] F y =-F w (cosδ o +cosδ i )-(F so -F rw sinδ o -(F si -F rw sinδ i +F ts1 -F ts2 =0 Equation (19)

[0074] F to —The driving force for steering the outer track;

[0075] F ti —The driving force for steering the inner track;

[0076] Solving equation (19), we get:

[0077]

[0078] Rearranging equations (18) and (20), we get:

[0079]

[0080]

[0081] Let the relation on the right side of equations (22) and (23) be:

[0082] F x ′=F w (sinδ o +sinδ i )-(F so -F rw cosδ o -(F si -F rw cosδ i Equation (24)

[0083]

[0084] Equations (22) and (23) can be simplified to the following system of equations:

[0085]

[0086] Solving the system of equations, we get:

[0087]

[0088]

[0089] When the special vehicle reverses, the inner track driving force F ti External track driving force F to Based on the control equations for forward movement, the forces acting in each direction are substituted into the equations according to the steering forces during reverse movement. Forces acting in opposite directions are converted to negative values. The inner track driving force F during reverse movement is then obtained from the corresponding control equations. ti External track driving force F to The control unit controls the drive motor to output the calculated steering inner track driving force F. ti and steering outside track driving force F to .
