Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to an intelligent dismounting and mounting counterweight connection method and system for a crane, and belongs to the technical field of engineering machinery. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the working process of the crane, in order to ensure the balance of the crane and avoid overturning due to the shift of the center of gravity during hoisting operation, a counterweight needs to be connected to the tail of the slewing ring of the crane. A large-tonnage crane has many counterweights, which need to be removed from the slewing ring during the transfer process and transferred to the chassis or transported separately, and then connected to the slewing ring of the crane according to the tonnage of the hoisted goods at the working site.
[0003] The commonly used counterweight of the crane is an up-lifting combined counterweight, which mainly moves vertically through the counterweight oil cylinder rod. When different combined counterweights are hung, the length of the downward extension of the oil cylinder rod is adjusted to realize the positioning and fixing of the counterweight, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 Before connecting the counterweight, the counterweight block to be installed is hung up and placed on the frame positioning block, which is usually located in front of the center of rotation of the crane (the forward direction of the crane is the front direction), and is symmetrically arranged along the center line. The stacking order of each combined counterweight follows the stacking order requirement of the movable counterweight. The conventional connection method is as follows:
[0004] (1) The counterweight oil cylinder is completely retracted, the crane is controlled to rotate at a low speed, the counterweight oil cylinder is centered with the Figure 1 “counterweight oil cylinder extension position”, at this time the angle of rotation of the slewing ring is defined as the first rotation angle, the length of the extension of the counterweight oil cylinder is adjusted to make it reach the height level with the “counterweight connection stand opening”.
[0005] (2) Counterclockwise rotation, the counterweight oil cylinder is turned to be centered with the “counterweight oil cylinder lifting position”, at this time the angle of rotation of the slewing ring is defined as the second rotation angle, the counterweight oil cylinder is controlled to lift, the counterweight oil cylinder is retracted, the counterweight is lifted to be separated from the frame, and it is confirmed that the upper surface of the movable counterweight is attached to the lower surface of the tail of the slewing ring or the lower surface of the fixed counterweight (if there is a fixed counterweight) is attached tightly. Then the counterweight is successfully installed, and the counterweight dismounting is the same.
[0006] The existing counterweight connection method is mainly divided into indoor control counterweight connection and outdoor control counterweight connection according to the control position. Indoor control is that the operator controls the lifting and rotation of the external counterweight oil cylinder through the control panel and / or control handle in the control room to realize the connection of the counterweight; outdoor control usually adopts a wired remote control box or a wireless remote control mode, and the operator needs to stand outside the control room to operate and observe the relative position of the counterweight oil cylinder and the counterweight mounting hole at a close distance, and manually observe and judge whether the oil cylinder is lifted to the position to realize the dismounting and mounting of the counterweight.
[0007] The outdoor operation mode is more intuitive for the operator, but is greatly affected by weather (such as rainy and snowy weather) and the environment near the vehicle body, and is poor in safety and humanization. The indoor operation environment is more comfortable, but is currently manually operated and judged, relies on the experience and observation of the operator, is limited by the operation field of view, is high in requirements for the operation proficiency and vision of the operator, is prone to cause fatigue of the operator, is poor in operation accuracy, and is low in work efficiency and safety of the counterweight dismounting and mounting.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0051] The technical solutions of the application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments, and it should be understood that the specific features in the embodiments and the specific features in the embodiments are detailed descriptions of the technical solutions of the application, rather than limitations of the technical solutions of the application, and the technical features in the embodiments and the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0052] Embodiment one
[0053] The embodiment discloses an intelligent dismounting and connection system for a crane counterweight, as shown in Figures 1 to 6The main components include counterweight assembly, counterweight cylinder, slewing ring, locking mechanism and vehicle control system. The main electrical components include slewing encoder B201 for detecting slewing angle, locking detection switch S201, unlocking detection switch S202, first slewing angle detection switch S203, second slewing angle detection switch S204, upper limit position detection switch S205, lower limit position detection switch S206, counterweight mounting operation button S1, counterweight dismounting operation button S2 (the buttons S1 and S2 can be shared), and crane controller. In addition, the above detection signals and switch signals can be sent to the display after being processed by the controller, and the operator can observe the current counterweight state and prompt information through the display.
[0054] The whole counterweight assembly hanging structure is as shown in Figure 2The counterweight is mounted as an example. For convenience of description, the default parking state of the rotating table is 0°, the rotating table rotates to the rear of the vehicle, i.e. the second rotating angle is the counterweight cylinder lifting position, the first rotating angle is the counterweight cylinder extension position, and the actual situation can be adjusted. The rotating table locking mechanism can be locked at least three rotating angle positions of the rotating table, which are 0°, the second rotating angle and the first rotating angle. Locking pin holes are designed on the frame directly below the corresponding rotating angle rotating table locking pins, the locking pins are inserted into the locking pin holes, and the rotating table is locked at the corresponding angle. The locking state of the rotating table is detected by the locking detection switch S201 and the unlocking detection switch S202 installed on the locking mechanism. When the rotating table is locked, the state of the locking detection switch S201 is 1, and the state of the unlocking detection switch S202 is 0. When the rotating table locking pin is lifted, i.e. the rotating table is separated from the frame, the state of the locking detection switch S201 changes from 1 to 0, and the state of the unlocking detection switch S202 changes from 0 to 1. At this time, the rotating can be performed. The rotating angle is detected by the rotating angle encoder B201, and the controller receives the B201 detection signal to determine the current rotating angle. In order to prevent the angle from being inaccurate due to the error of the rotating encoder signal or the damage of the sensor, the first rotating angle detection switch S203 and the second rotating angle detection switch S204 are added. When the rotating angle approaches the first rotating angle, the first rotating angle can be set to ±5° according to the rotating direction, and the actual situation can be adjusted. The controller controls the rotating speed to slow down, and when the angle basically reaches the first rotating angle, the state of the detection switch S203 changes from 0 to 1, and at this time the counterweight cylinder reaches the counterweight cylinder extension position 2; continue to rotate to basically reach the second rotating angle, the state of the detection switch S203 changes from 1 to 0, and the state of the detection switch S204 changes from 0 to 1, and at this time the counterweight cylinder reaches the counterweight cylinder lifting position. The lifting and lowering positions of the counterweight cylinder are detected by the lifting limit detection switch S205 and the lowering limit detection switch S206. Since the counterweight hanging column gap position 3 is determined, the counterweight cylinder lowering position is determined, S206 can use an inductive proximity switch, and S205 can use a pressure switch. When the counterweight cylinder is lowered to the counterweight hanging column gap position 3, the state of the detection switch S206 changes from 0 to 1, and when the counterweight cylinder is lifted to the limit position, the state of the switch S205 changes from 0 to 1. In order to further ensure the accuracy of the angle position of the counterweight cylinder, prevent the angle from being deviated, and prevent the counterweight cylinder from being damaged or the counterweight block from falling, a mechanical locking judgment is added, i.e. when the detection switch detects the rotating angle to the first and second rotating angle positions, the rotating table is first locked, i.e. the state of the unlocking detection switch S202 changes from 1 to 0 and the state of the locking detection switch S201 changes from 0 to 1, and then the controller allows the counterweight cylinder to perform lifting and lowering actions.
[0055] Example Two
[0056] The embodiment discloses an intelligent dismounting and mounting method for a counterweight of a crane, and specifically comprises the following steps:
[0057] As Figure 7As shown, the counterweight installation process is as follows: press the counterweight installation operation button S1, the crane controller checks the current state, if not qualified counterweight hanging conditions, such as the boom angle is too low to lift from the boom, the system exists fault alarm, etc., not allowed to automatically counterweight hanging, the display increases the reminder "not meet the counterweight automatic installation conditions, please raise the arm, please check the system × × fault" etc. When the counterweight hanging conditions are met, taking the initial rotation angle of 0° and the turret lock pin as an example, first, to ensure safety, the counterweight cylinder is raised to prevent the cylinder rod from being damaged due to the counterweight cylinder not fully retracted. After determining that the counterweight cylinder is fully retracted through the detection switch, the controller controls the turret lock pin to be unlocked according to the current detection state. When the controller detects that the turret lock detection switch S201 state changes from 1 to 0 and the turret unlock detection switch S202 state changes from 0 to 1, it indicates that the unlocking is successful. Then the controller controls the turret to rotate. The controller receives the detection value of the rotation angle encoder, analyzes and judges the current rotation angle. When it is away from the pre-detection position, the rotation speed is high. When it reaches a certain rotation angle (safety rotation angle), the rotation speed is reduced. When it approaches the first rotation angle, the rotation speed is further reduced. When the first rotation angle detection switch S203 state changes from 0 to 1, the rotation stops. The controller controls the turret lock pin to be locked downward in the first locking hole. At this time, the turret unlock detection switch S202 state changes from 1 to 0 and the turret lock detection switch S201 state changes from 0 to 1, indicating that the turret locking is successful. At this time, the counterweight cylinder stops at the position directly above the counterweight cylinder extension position 2 of the counterweight block. The controller starts to control the counterweight cylinder rod to descend. During the descent process, the counterweight cylinder lift detection switch S205 state changes from 1 to 0 and the counterweight cylinder descent limit detection switch S206 state changes from 0 to 1, indicating that the counterweight cylinder has descended to the specified position. At this time, the counterweight cylinder bottom hanging position is flush with the counterweight hanging column gap on the counterweight block, and the counterweight cylinder stops descending. The controller controls the turret lock pin to be unlocked from the first locking hole. When it is detected that the turret lock detection switch S201 state changes from 1 to 0 and the turret unlock detection switch S202 state changes from 0 to 1, it indicates that the unlocking is successful. The controller controls the turret to rotate counterclockwise at a low speed. When it is detected that the rotation angle approaches the second rotation angle, the first rotation angle detection switch S203 state changes from 1 to 0 and the second rotation angle detection switch S204 state changes from 0 to 1, the rotation stops. The controller controls the turret lock pin to be locked downward in the second locking hole. The turret unlock detection switch S202 state changes from 1 to 0 and the turret lock detection switch S201 state changes from 0 to 1, indicating that the turret locking is successful. At this time, the counterweight cylinder stops at the counterweight cylinder hanging position 1 of the counterweight block. The controller controls the counterweight cylinder rod to rise. During the rising process, the counterweight cylinder descent detection switch S206 state changes from 1 to 0 and the counterweight cylinder lift detection switch S205 state changes from 0 to 1, indicating that the counterweight cylinder has risen to the top and the counterweight upper plane is flush with the turret tail lower plane or the fixed counterweight (if there is a fixed counterweight) lower plane.The controller controls the counterweight oil cylinder to stop, and transmits a counterweight hanging completion signal to the display, and the display displays that the counterweight is successfully mounted.
[0058] Optionally, the detection switch mentioned in the patent can adopt, but is not limited to, an inductive sensor / proximity switch, and can also adopt a photoelectric sensor and an ultrasonic, laser and other distance measurement sensors. The detection switch states 0 and 1 can also be adjusted according to the actual sensor type.
[0059] Preferably, in order to further improve the intelligent counterweight dismounting efficiency and safety, the 0-360° rotation angle is divided into several regions, such as 0-170° and 195°-360° as safe rotation angles. In the safe angle range, the counterweight oil cylinder is not allowed to lift, and the rotation electromagnetic valve current value is increased, so that the turntable rotates at a faster speed. In the non-safe angle range, the rotation electromagnetic valve current value is reduced, and the turntable rotates at a lower speed. When approaching the predetermined angle (the predetermined angle refers to the first rotation angle, the second rotation angle and the 0° angle mentioned above), in order to ensure safety, the rotation speed is further reduced.
[0060] Preferably, the counterweight hanging rotation direction can be automatically selected by the controller according to the current state of the crane, such as automatically selecting the direction that can quickly reach the counterweight hanging position according to the current angle value, so as to improve the working efficiency. If a rotation virtual wall is set, the rotation virtual wall angle is automatically selected by default. The rotation direction can also be selected by the operator according to the actual conditions of the site.
[0061] Preferably, after a period of time, when the crane is located in the front (i.e. in the parking state, the turntable is located at the 0° angle), the turntable locking pin is locked, and the rotation encoder can be zeroed synchronously through the controller program, so as to prevent the angle measurement from being inaccurate due to the zero point drift or cumulative measurement error of the encoder working for a long time.
[0062] Preferably, for the crane whose turntable can be locked at any 360° angle, such as gear meshing locking and non-locking pin locking, the method is also applicable. At this time, after the second rotation angle and the first rotation angle are detected, the locking pin locking is changed to the gear meshing locking, and the detection switches S201 and S202 can also detect the locking and unlocking states.
[0063] Optionally, the detection switches S203 and S204 can not be assembled, and the first rotation angle and the second rotation angle can also be recognized by the rotation angle encoder B201.
