Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of engineering machinery technology, specifically to a control method, control device, processor, and engineering machinery for engineering machinery. Background Technology

[0002] Construction machinery (such as telescopic boom forklifts or concrete pump trucks) typically requires outriggers to ensure stability during operation. Taking telescopic boom forklifts as an example, they can be used for a variety of tasks, including high-altitude operations and stacking / palletizing, depending on the attachments used. They are widely used in factories, warehouses, docks, and construction sites. Currently, forklifts are equipped with front and rear outriggers to increase stability under heavy loads.

[0003] Currently, construction machinery equipped with outriggers, including forklifts, typically only considers the working environment when setting the outrigger extension direction and length. This means the outriggers are fixed in place before operation, and the setting remains unchanged if the working environment remains constant. However, this approach fails to account for the impact of actual working conditions such as load. Under critical load conditions, this can cause the vehicle to become unbalanced, leading to tipping and potentially serious accidents. Therefore, existing technology suffers from insufficient safety. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this application is to provide a control method, control device, processor and engineering machinery for engineering machinery, so as to solve the problem of low safety in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the first aspect of this application provides a control method for construction machinery, the construction machinery including multiple outriggers, the control method comprising:

[0012] In this embodiment, the current outrigger parameters of each outrigger include the current slewing angle, the target outrigger parameters of each outrigger include the target slewing angle, and the tilt angle data includes a first tilt angle and a second tilt angle.

[0013] In this embodiment, the current outrigger parameter of each outrigger also includes the current outrigger length, and the target outrigger parameter of each outrigger also includes the target outrigger length; the control method further includes: determining the length change of each outrigger based on the outrigger weight coefficient and the current outrigger length; determining the average weight coefficient of each outrigger based on the outrigger weight coefficient; and determining the target outrigger length of each outrigger based on the average weight coefficient, the length change of each outrigger, and the current outrigger length.

[0014] In this embodiment of the application, the target outrigger length of each outrigger is determined based on the average weight coefficient of the outrigger, the length change of each outrigger, and the current outrigger length. This includes: for any outrigger of the construction machinery, comparing the outrigger weight coefficient of any outrigger with the average weight coefficient of the outrigger; if the outrigger weight coefficient of any outrigger is greater than the average weight coefficient of the outrigger, determining the sum of the outrigger length of any outrigger and the length change of any outrigger as the target outrigger length of any outrigger; if the outrigger weight coefficient of any outrigger is less than the average weight coefficient of the outrigger, determining the difference between the outrigger length of any outrigger and the length change of any outrigger as the target outrigger length of any outrigger.

[0030] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a control method for engineering machinery provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 1As shown in the figure, this application provides a control method for construction machinery, which includes multiple outriggers. Taking the application of this method to the processor of the construction machinery as an example, the control method may include the following steps.

[0031] Step S101: If a risk of overturning is detected in the construction machinery, obtain the tilt angle data of the construction machinery under the current working conditions and the current outrigger parameters of each outrigger of the construction machinery.

[0032] Step S102: Based on the tilt angle data and the current outrigger parameters of each outrigger, determine the target outrigger parameters of each outrigger of the construction machinery under the current working conditions.

[0033] Step S103: Control each outrigger of the construction machinery based on the target outrigger parameters of each outrigger.

[0034] In this embodiment, construction machinery refers to various construction vehicles equipped with multiple outriggers, such as cranes and forklifts. During actual operation, after the construction machinery reaches the designated work location, the control system controls the outriggers with default extension length and angle to ensure balance during operation. However, if the construction machinery is overloaded or the stress area shifts during operation, there is a risk of tipping over. In this case, the outrigger extension needs to be readjusted to adapt to the current working conditions.

[0035] Specifically, when the processor detects a risk of tipping over on the construction machinery, it acquires the tilt angle data and the current outrigger parameters of each outrigger at the critical tipping moment. The tilt angle data refers to the vehicle's tilt angle at the critical tipping moment, which can be obtained through tilt angle sensors mounted on the chassis of the construction machinery. The current outrigger parameters can include the current outrigger length and rotation angle of each outrigger, which can be obtained through length sensors and angle sensors mounted on each outrigger, respectively.

[0036] In one example, the processor can acquire the tilt angle of the construction machinery in real time and determine whether the tilt angle exceeds a critical value to identify any risk of rollover. In another example, a torque limiter can be installed on the vehicle body. The processor can acquire the torque limiter parameter value in real time and determine whether the torque limiter parameter value exceeds a critical value to identify any risk of rollover. It should be noted that there can be multiple methods to determine whether construction machinery is at risk of rollover; the above are merely illustrative examples.

[0037] It can be understood that the target outrigger parameters for each outrigger refer to the control parameters of each outrigger under the current working condition, ensuring that the construction machinery will not tip over. Having acquired the tilt angle data of the construction machinery under the current working condition and the current outrigger parameters of each outrigger, the processor can calculate the target parameters for each outrigger under the current working condition based on the tilt angle data and the current outrigger parameters. Specifically, the processor can determine the direction in which the construction machinery will tip over under the current working condition based on the tilt angle data, and then, combined with the force conditions on each outrigger under the current working condition, calculate the target parameters for each outrigger based on its current outrigger length and rotation angle.

[0038] Finally, the processor can adjust each outrigger based on the calculated target outrigger parameters. In one example, the target outrigger parameters may include the target outrigger length and target rotation angle. The processor can adjust each outrigger to the target length by controlling the outrigger rotation solenoid valve and to the target rotation angle by controlling the outrigger extension solenoid valve. Understandably, in practical applications, when there is a risk of overturning on the construction machinery, the operator will stop the machinery and retract the outriggers so that the processor can automatically adjust the outriggers based on the parameters obtained at the critical moment.

[0039] The aforementioned technical solution is applied to construction machinery comprising multiple outriggers. When a risk of rollover is detected, the system acquires the tilt angle data of the construction machinery under the current operating condition and the current outrigger parameters of each outrigger. Based on the tilt angle data and the current outrigger parameters, the system determines the target outrigger parameters for each outrigger under the current operating condition. Finally, the system controls each outrigger based on these target outrigger parameters. This application enables the determination and corresponding adjustment of the target outrigger parameters for each outrigger under the current operating condition based on the tilt angle data and current outrigger parameters at the critical point of rollover, achieving automatic control of multiple outriggers on the construction machinery. This helps reduce the risk of vehicle rollover and improves safety.

[0040] In this embodiment of the application, the construction machinery also includes a torque limiter, and the control method further includes: acquiring the torque limiter parameter value of the construction machinery in real time through the torque limiter; comparing the torque limiter parameter value with a set safety value; and determining that the construction machinery has a risk of overturning and issuing an alarm signal when the torque limiter parameter value is greater than the set safety value.

[0041] It is understandable that a torque limiter, installed on the rear axle of a construction machinery vehicle, monitors for potential rollover risks during operation. The torque limiter parameter value represents the lateral tilt force the vehicle can withstand; the set safety value refers to the maximum lateral tilt force the vehicle can withstand. During operation, the processor can obtain the torque limiter parameter value in real time and compare it with the set safety value. If the torque limiter parameter value exceeds the set safety value, it indicates a rollover risk. To ensure the operator is promptly aware of the risk, the processor outputs an alarm signal. Simultaneously, the torque limiter activates, limiting the vehicle's tilt and giving the operator reaction time. Upon receiving the alarm signal, the operator stops the machinery and retracts the outriggers to a safe position to unload the load. The operator can then select a one-button adjustment to automatically reposition the outriggers to a suitable position, preventing rollover during subsequent operations.

[0042] In this embodiment of the application, the target outrigger parameters of each outrigger of the construction machinery under the current working condition are determined based on the tilt angle data and the current outrigger parameters of each outrigger. This includes: determining the outrigger weight coefficient of each outrigger of the construction machinery under the current working condition; and determining the target outrigger parameters of each outrigger based on the current outrigger parameters and outrigger weight coefficients of each outrigger, combined with the tilt angle data.

[0043] It can be understood that the outrigger weight coefficients of each outrigger under the current working condition represent the stress state of each outrigger; the current tilt angle data of the construction machinery is the tilt angle of the vehicle body. By combining the outrigger weight coefficients of each outrigger and the tilt angle of the vehicle body, the direction in which the vehicle body will tilt can be determined. Based on this, the current outrigger parameters of each outrigger of the construction machinery can be adjusted to obtain the target outrigger parameters that are suitable for the current working condition.

[0044] In this embodiment of the application, determining the outrigger weight coefficient of each outrigger of the construction machinery under the current working condition includes: obtaining pressure data of each outrigger of the construction machinery under the current working condition to obtain multiple pressure data; normalizing the multiple pressure data to obtain multiple normalized pressure data; and performing weighted average processing on the multiple normalized pressure data to obtain the outrigger weight coefficient of each outrigger.

[0045] It is understandable that each outrigger of the construction machinery is equipped with a pressure sensor, which collects pressure data from each outrigger. Under current operating conditions, the pressure data of each outrigger indicates the stress on each outrigger at the critical point of tipping over. Furthermore, based on the pressure data of each outrigger, the outrigger weight coefficient can be obtained.

[0046] Specifically, the following explanation uses a four-legged construction machine as an example. Pressure sensors read the pressure data from each leg, designated as P1, P2, P3, and P4. The pressure values ​​detected by the pressure sensors are then normalized. The pressure data is normalized using formula (1):

[0047]

[0048] Where P′1, P′2, P′3, and P′4 are normalized pressure data; P max P min These are the maximum and minimum values ​​detected by the pressure sensor, that is, the maximum and minimum values ​​among the four pressure data.

[0049] Furthermore, a weighted average is applied to the normalized data, and the weight coefficient of each leg is determined according to formula (2):

[0050]

[0051] Wherein, W1, W2, W3, and W4 are the outrigger weight coefficients for each outrigger. It should be noted that the formulas for normalizing the pressure data and calculating the outrigger weight coefficients are not limited to the one described above; the specific formula can be determined based on actual needs and specific circumstances.

[0052] In this embodiment, the current outrigger parameters of each outrigger include the current slewing angle, the target outrigger parameters of each outrigger include the target slewing angle, and the tilt angle data includes a first tilt angle and a second tilt angle. Based on the current outrigger parameters and outrigger weight coefficients of each outrigger, combined with the tilt angle data, the target outrigger parameters of each outrigger are determined, including: determining a first tilt angle weight coefficient and a second tilt angle weight coefficient based on the first tilt angle, the second tilt angle, and the outrigger weight coefficients of each outrigger; determining the slewing angle change of each outrigger based on the tilt angle data, the first tilt angle weight coefficient, the second tilt angle weight coefficient, and the outrigger weight coefficients of each outrigger; and determining the target slewing angle of each outrigger based on the current slewing angle and the slewing angle change of each outrigger.

[0053] It can be understood that the target rotation angle of each outrigger is the rotation angle of each outrigger required to maintain the stability of the vehicle body under the current working conditions. A coordinate system is established with the center of the construction machinery as the reference point. The first tilt angle refers to the angle between the vehicle body and the X-axis as measured by the tilt sensor, and the second tilt angle refers to the angle between the vehicle body and the Y-axis as measured by the tilt sensor. The X-axis is parallel to the front of the vehicle, and the Y-axis is perpendicular to the front of the vehicle. The processor can determine the first tilt angle weight coefficient and the second tilt angle weight coefficient based on the first tilt angle, the second tilt angle, and the outrigger weight coefficients of each outrigger. The rotation direction of each outrigger is then determined based on the first tilt angle weight coefficient and the second tilt angle weight coefficient.

[0054] Specifically, the first and second tilt angles of the vehicle body measured by the tilt sensor are θ and β, respectively. One method for calculating the first and second tilt angle weighting coefficients is shown in formulas (3) to (6):

[0055]

[0056]

[0057]

[0058]

[0059] Among them, W θ W is the first tilt angle weighting coefficient. β W is the second tilt angle weighting coefficient. other This is the sum of the weighting coefficients of the other sensors.

[0060] Furthermore, the processor can determine the change in slewing angle of each outrigger using formula (7) based on the tilt angle data, the first tilt angle weighting coefficient, the second tilt angle weighting coefficient, and the outrigger weighting coefficient of each outrigger:

[0061]

[0062] Wherein, Δα′1, Δα′2, Δα′3, and Δα′4 represent the changes in the slewing angle of each outrigger. It should be noted that the calculation methods for the first tilt angle weighting coefficient, the second tilt angle weighting coefficient, and the changes in the slewing angle of each outrigger are not limited to the one described above, and can be adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0063] Finally, by adjusting the current rotation angle of each outrigger according to the change in rotation angle of each outrigger, the target rotation angle of each outrigger can be obtained.

[0064] In this embodiment, the current outrigger parameter of each outrigger also includes the current outrigger length, and the target outrigger parameter of each outrigger also includes the target outrigger length; the control method further includes: determining the length change of each outrigger based on the outrigger weight coefficient and the current outrigger length; determining the average weight coefficient of each outrigger based on the outrigger weight coefficient; and determining the target outrigger length of each outrigger based on the average weight coefficient, the length change of each outrigger, and the current outrigger length.

[0065] It can be understood that the target outrigger length of each outrigger is the outrigger length of each outrigger required to keep the vehicle body stable under the current working conditions. Specifically, the current outrigger lengths of each outrigger collected by the length sensor are L1, L2, L3, and L4, respectively. The processor can determine the length change of each outrigger according to the outrigger weight coefficient and the current outrigger length using formula (8):

[0066]

[0067] Where ΔL′1, ΔL′2, ΔL′3, and ΔL′4 are the length changes of each support leg, and K is an adjustment coefficient that can be set and adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0068] Furthermore, the processor can determine the average weight coefficient of the outriggers using formula (9) based on the outrigger weight coefficients of each outrigger:

[0069]

[0070] Where W is the average weight coefficient of the outrigger.

[0071] It is understandable that by comparing the weight coefficient of each outrigger with the average weight coefficient of the outriggers, it can be determined whether the adjustment method of each outrigger is to extend or shorten. Then, the current length of each outrigger is adjusted by the change in the length of each outrigger to obtain the target outrigger length of each outrigger.

[0072] In this embodiment of the application, the target outrigger length of each outrigger is determined based on the average weighting coefficient of the outriggers, the length change of each outrigger, and the current outrigger length, including:

[0073] For any outrigger of the construction machinery, compare the outrigger weight coefficient of any outrigger with the average outrigger weight coefficient; if the outrigger weight coefficient of any outrigger is greater than the average outrigger weight coefficient, the sum of the outrigger length of any outrigger and the change in length of any outrigger is determined as the target outrigger length of any outrigger; if the outrigger weight coefficient of any outrigger is less than the average outrigger weight coefficient, the difference between the outrigger length of any outrigger and the change in length of any outrigger is determined as the target outrigger length of any outrigger.

[0074] It can be understood that by comparing the outrigger weight coefficient of each outrigger with the average outrigger weight coefficient, it can be determined whether the adjustment mode of each outrigger is extension or retraction. For any outrigger, if the outrigger weight coefficient of this outrigger is greater than the average outrigger weight coefficient, it indicates that this outrigger needs to be extended, and at this time, the target outrigger length of this outrigger is the sum of the current outrigger length and the outrigger length variation. If the outrigger weight coefficient of this outrigger is less than the average outrigger weight coefficient, it indicates that this outrigger needs to be retracted, and at this time, the target outrigger length of this outrigger is the difference between the current outrigger length and the outrigger length variation. If the outrigger weight coefficient of this outrigger is equal to the average outrigger weight coefficient, the outrigger length of this outrigger remains unchanged.

[0075] In a specific embodiment of the present application, taking a construction machine including four outriggers as an example, the four outriggers are respectively outrigger 1, 2, 3 and 4. The outrigger adjustment process is as follows:

[0076] Step 1: During the operation of the vehicle, if the vehicle tilts towards outriggers 1 and 2, the current value of the moment limiter exceeds the set safety value of the current moment limiter, the system gives an alarm, and the operator controls the construction machine to stop working.

[0077] Step 2: At this time, the data of each outrigger pressure sensor are P1, P2, P3, P4, and the data of the inclination sensor are θ, β, and P m2x =P1, P min =P3, the current slewing angles of each outrigger are respectively α1, α2, α3 and α4, and the current outrigger lengths of each outrigger are respectively L1, L2, L3 and L4. Based on the data at this time, the steps such as normalization processing by the controller are the same as the above calculation and adjustment steps, so as to obtain the weight coefficient W1, W2, W3, W4 of each outrigger, the average weight coefficient W of the outriggers, and the weight coefficient W of the inclination sensor θ , W β , the angle variations Δα'1, Δα'2, Δα'3, Δα'4, and the length variations ΔL'1, ΔL'2, ΔL'3, ΔL'4.

[0078] Compare the magnitudes of the weight coefficients. At this time, W1>W, W2>W, W3<W, W4<W, and the target outrigger parameters of each outrigger can be obtained as follows:

[0079] Target slewing angle for outrigger 1 to extend: α1+Δα'1, target outrigger length: L1+ΔL'1;

[0080] Target slewing angle for outrigger 2 to extend: α2+Δα'2, target outrigger length: L2+ΔL'2;

[0081] Target slewing angle for outrigger 3 to extend: α3+Δα'3, target outrigger length: L3-ΔL'3;

[0082] The target rotation angle of outrigger 4 is α4+Δα′4, and the target outrigger length is L4-ΔL′4.

[0083] Step 3: Unload the vehicle and retract the outriggers. The operator adjusts the extension status of each outrigger with one click based on the calculation results of the control system. The torque limiter's set safety value is adaptively adjusted according to the outrigger extension status, and the operation is restarted.

[0084] Figure 2 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a method for using engineering machinery, provided as a specific embodiment of this application. Figure 2 As shown in the illustration, a specific embodiment of this application provides a method for use in engineering machinery, which may include the following steps:

[0085] S1, Begin.

[0086] S2, the outriggers extend as per default value.

[0087] S3, tilt sensor, pressure sensor, torque limiter data acquisition.

[0088] S4. Determine whether the torque limiter value is less than the set safety value. If it is, proceed to step S11; otherwise, proceed to step S5.

[0089] S5. Activate alarm.

[0090] S6. Calculate the target extension value of the outriggers.

[0091] S7, boom recovery and unloading.

[0092] S8, outrigger retraction.

[0093] S9. Extend the outriggers according to the target value.

[0094] S10. Adaptively adjust the set safety value of the torque limiter; proceed to step S4.

[0095] S11, Alarm not activated.

[0096] S12, End.

[0097] The target extension value of the outriggers refers to the target outrigger parameters for each outrigger. This technical solution, by integrating data collected from the torque limiter, tilt sensor, and pressure sensor, enables real-time monitoring of the risk of tipping over during the entire operation of the construction machinery. It promptly alerts operators, allowing them to stop the machinery in time to prevent tipping. Furthermore, by readjusting the outrigger extension values ​​based on the sensor parameters, the machinery can maintain balance under initial critical tipping conditions, significantly improving operational safety.

[0098] This application also provides a processor configured to execute the control method for engineering machinery described in the above embodiments.

[0099] Figure 3 This is a structural block diagram of a control device for engineering machinery provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 3 As shown, this application embodiment also provides a control device 300 for construction machinery, the construction machinery including multiple outriggers, the control device 300 including:

[0100] The parameter acquisition module 310 is used to acquire the tilt angle data of the construction machinery under the current working conditions and the current outrigger parameters of each outrigger of the construction machinery when an alarm signal is detected.

[0101] The target outrigger parameter determination module 320 is used to determine the target outrigger parameters of each outrigger of the construction machinery under the current working conditions based on the tilt angle data and the outrigger parameters of each outrigger.

[0102] The outrigger control module 330 is used to control each outrigger of the construction machinery based on the target outrigger parameters of each outrigger.

[0103] The aforementioned control device 300 for construction machinery is applied to construction machinery including multiple outriggers. When a risk of rollover is detected, it acquires the tilt angle data of the construction machinery under the current operating condition and the current outrigger parameters of each outrigger. Based on the tilt angle data and the current outrigger parameters, it determines the target outrigger parameters for each outrigger under the current operating condition. Finally, it controls each outrigger based on these target outrigger parameters.
