[0038] Other features and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail in the following detailed description section. Attached Figure Description

[0039] The accompanying drawings are provided to further illustrate embodiments of the present invention and form part of the specification. They are used together with the following detailed description to explain the embodiments of the present invention, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. In the drawings:

[0040] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling engineering machinery according to the present invention;

[0041] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a specific embodiment of the present invention;

[0042] Figure 3 This is a business process diagram of the present invention;

[0043] Figure 4 This is a flowchart of the force limiter unlocking vehicle control strategy of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0044] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, a method for controlling construction machinery according to the present invention includes: step S101, acquiring instruction information, the instruction information including control information and vehicle information. Optionally, the control information includes unlocking instructions and locking instructions; when the control information is an unlocking instruction, the construction machinery is activated. The vehicle information includes vehicle VIN code information and other vehicle information.

[0046] In one specific implementation, the method for obtaining instruction information includes one or more of facial recognition, fingerprint recognition, and information scanning. Drivers can input instruction information into an information collection terminal (such as a mobile phone) via facial recognition, fingerprint recognition, or information scanning.

[0047] A cloud platform (such as an IoT platform) acquires instruction information, which includes control information and vehicle information. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the cloud platform obtains instruction information, such as facial information obtained by the driver through facial recognition on a mobile phone or other data acquisition device, and then uploads the facial information to the cloud platform. This method can quickly and accurately obtain instruction information.

[0048] The communication method between the construction machinery and the cloud platform and the data acquisition terminal is wireless communication. The construction machinery is an intelligent connected vehicle, equipped with on-board sensors, controllers, actuators and other devices, integrating modern communication and network technologies to realize intelligent information exchange and sharing between vehicles and people, vehicles, roads and back-end systems.

[0049] Step S102 involves determining the operating machinery based on the vehicle information. The vehicle information includes vehicle VIN code information and other vehicle details. When the control information is a vehicle lock command, the operating machinery is shut down. This method can manage and control one or more operating machines.

[0050] In one specific implementation, the cloud platform acquires vehicle information and verifies it against existing vehicle information within the platform. Upon successful verification, a verification success message is sent to the data acquisition terminal. The platform then performs a communication connection test on the designated operating machinery based on the verification information, preparing for the subsequent transmission of control information. If the cloud platform fails to communicate with the designated operating machinery, or if vehicle information verification fails, a failure message is sent to the instruction information acquisition terminal, indicating that communication with the designated operating machinery has failed or that the designated operating machinery is not within the platform.

[0051] According to a specific implementation method, such as Figure 2As shown, after the cloud platform obtains real-time vehicle information, it sends it to the force limiter system corresponding to the working machinery via GPS. The force limiter system then authorizes the working machinery (such as a crane) to perform the next action.

[0052] By controlling the construction machinery based on vehicle information through a cloud platform, the management system for construction machinery has been improved and the management difficulty has been reduced.

[0053] Step S103 is to set the working mode of the machine according to its status, the working mode including risk control mode and de-control mode.

[0054] In one specific implementation, the operating mode of the machinery is set according to its status. This is typically determined by the vehicle administrator based on the machinery's own situation. For example, if the machinery has outstanding payments, the administrator has the right to lock the vehicle and set its operating mode to risk control mode. By configuring permissions for the machinery through an IoT platform, the risk of using the machinery in special circumstances is reduced, and safety control is improved.

[0055] Step S104 involves controlling the operating machinery based on the control information and the operating mode of the operating machinery.

[0056] Step S105 further includes identity information in the instruction information; when the working mode of the operating machinery is risk control mode, the identity information is authenticated, and when the identity authentication is successful, the operating machinery is controlled according to the control information; when the working mode of the operating machinery is de-controlled mode, the operating machinery is controlled according to the control information.

[0057] The identity information is authenticated. If the authentication fails, a re-authentication message is sent to the authenticator until the authentication is successful within the authentication count threshold or the authentication count threshold is exceeded.

[0058] The step of controlling the working machinery according to the control information includes: sending the control information to the force limiter of the working machinery, storing and executing the control information through the force limiter.

[0059] This method achieves driver identification and recognition without adding external monitoring equipment, effectively controls the qualifications of personnel driving vehicles, improves the management system of construction machinery, and enhances driving safety.

[0060] According to a specific implementation method, such as Figure 3 As shown, the business process includes: the system administrator pre-enters the facial information of the driver to be authorized and the vehicle VIN code information into the Internet of Things platform. The correspondence between the driver and the vehicle can be one-to-one, one-to-many, or many-to-one.

[0061] System administrators can configure vehicle permissions through the IoT platform, including whether the vehicle can have its risk control unlocking function enabled / disabled, and whether facial recognition authentication can be enabled / disabled.

[0062] The force limiter's main interface displays a QR code containing the vehicle's VIN code and the current date. After scanning the code with a mobile phone to enter facial information, it is uploaded to the platform. The platform will compare the uploaded information with the pre-authorized information; if they match, the pass is granted.

[0063] Considering that vehicles entering areas without signal coverage cannot receive power-on commands via GPS, this invention supports dynamic verification code input for the force limiter. The platform and the force limiter terminal are equipped with the same dynamic code algorithm. After configuration, vehicles requiring identity authentication must unlock before operation; if unlocking is not completed, the force limiter locks the crane's movement, disallowing operation.

[0064] Figure 4 This is a flowchart of the force limiter unlocking vehicle control strategy of the present invention, as follows: Figure 4 As shown, after the force limiter is powered on, it receives a risk control unlock / lock command. If the command is for unlocking, it first checks if the ID card command is enabled. If the ID card command is enabled, it performs identity authentication repeatedly. The information collection terminal displays a QR code and prompts the user to scan and wait for authorization. A verification code input box is displayed, and a dynamic verification code is generated based on the embedded algorithm. If the password is correct, the verification is successful, and the platform command unlocks the vehicle successfully. If the risk control command fails to unlock, action restrictions are imposed, and the user is prompted that the vehicle is in a risk control locked state and should contact the rental company administrator to obtain an unlock code verification code for unlocking.

[0065] The risk control unlocking command takes precedence over the identity authentication command. After powering on, the force limiter pre-judges the risk control unlocking command before judging the identity authentication command. The force limiter constantly receives the risk control unlocking command and identity authentication command issued by the platform, updates and stores them in real time, and uses them as the basis for judgment after the next power-on.

[0066] This invention utilizes a force limiter system to judge different commands from the platform, and continuously receives, updates, and stores platform command information as the basis for determining the next power-on. It guides and prompts the user to perform an unlocking operation, thereby unlocking the crane by releasing and restricting crane movements (boom extension / retraction, luffing, and winch movement).

[0067] Through network interaction between the data acquisition terminal and the IoT platform, network interaction between the IoT platform and GPS, and CAN communication interaction between GPS and the force limiter, and by fully considering emergency unlocking status in abnormal situations, all systems work together to achieve driver identification and recognition functions.

[0068] On the other hand, the present invention also proposes a device for controlling construction machinery, the device comprising: an acquisition module for acquiring instruction information, the instruction information including control information and vehicle information; a first processing module for determining the construction machinery based on the vehicle information; a second processing module for setting the working mode of the construction machinery according to its own conditions, the working mode including a risk control mode and a de-control mode; and a third processing module for controlling the construction machinery according to the control information and the working mode of the construction machinery.

[0069] In one specific implementation, the instruction information further includes identity information. When the operating mode of the machinery is risk control mode, the identity information is authenticated. If the authentication is successful, the machinery is controlled according to the control information. When the operating mode of the machinery is de-controlled mode, the machinery is controlled according to the control information. The identity information is also authenticated. If authentication fails, a re-authentication message is sent to the verification personnel until authentication is successful within a threshold number or exceeds the threshold number.

[0070] The step of controlling the operating machinery according to the control information includes: sending the control information to the force limiter of the operating machinery, storing and executing the control information through the force limiter. The control information includes unlocking commands and locking commands; when the control information is an unlocking command, the operating machinery is turned on; when the control information is a locking command, the operating machinery is turned off. The method for obtaining the command information includes one or more of facial recognition, fingerprint recognition, and information scanning.

[0071] This device achieves intelligent control of the machinery by coordinating the working mode and control information of the operating equipment and fully considering emergency unlocking in abnormal situations.

[0073] Optionally, the instruction information also includes identity information; when the working mode of the operating machinery is risk control mode, the identity information is used for identity authentication, and when the identity authentication is successful, the operating machinery is controlled according to the control information; when the working mode of the operating machinery is de-controlled mode, the operating machinery is controlled according to the control information.
