Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of engineering machinery, and in particular to a boom side bending detection method and system, an electronic device, and a storage medium. BACKGROUND

[0002] The boom is commonly known as a boom, a lifting arm, as a key load-bearing component, which can be a whole arm or a multi-arm nest, and the structural stability is an important factor in determining the mechanical performance. Once the boom structure is unstable (for example, the boom side bending is serious), it is easy to cause the boom folding, tipping and other accidents of the crane, causing serious losses.

[0003] During the daily lifting operation, the boom side bending often occurs, especially in cranes with arms longer than 80 meters. The specific reasons for the boom side bending are as follows: (1) the gap between each arm is too large, which will cause the left and right swing of the arm joint; or the head block position is incorrect, which will cause the arm to deviate to one side, and now the arm is generally multi-section, once the sliding block of a certain section of the arm is not accurately adjusted, the arm will be more obvious after elongation; (2) during the manufacturing process of the boom, due to process problems, stress reaction of the boom itself will occur during pressing and welding, which will cause micro deformation of the boom, although it cannot be found by naked eye, but when assembled on the crane, it will cause obvious boom side bending; (3) the tail block gap of the boom is not symmetrical, which will cause the boom to be stressed and skewed, so the hinge shaft of the boom tail and the rotary table are also easy to cause the boom side bending; (4) for cranes with straight arms, single-section arms and multi-section arms, structural deformation is also a cause of boom side bending.

[0004] Therefore, how to accurately detect the boom side bending is a problem to be solved at present. SUMMARY

[0052] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments of the present application.

Moreover, although the logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in an order different from that here.

[0053] The terms "first" and "second" in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a specific order. Furthermore, the term "comprising" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive protection.

[0054] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, illustrates exemplary embodiments of this application, including various details to aid understanding. These embodiments should be considered merely exemplary. Therefore, those skilled in the art should recognize that various changes and modifications can be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope of this application. Similarly, for clarity and brevity, descriptions of well-known functions and structures are omitted in the following description. It should be noted that in the embodiments of this application, certain existing industry solutions such as software, components, and models may be mentioned. These should be considered exemplary, intended only to illustrate the feasibility of implementing the technical solutions of this application, and do not imply that the applicant has already used or necessarily used such solutions.

[0055] The following is a brief introduction to the application scenarios to which the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are applicable. It should be noted that the application scenarios described below are only for illustrating the embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope. In specific implementation, the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of this application can be flexibly applied according to actual needs.

[0056] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating an application scenario applicable to the embodiments of this application. For example... Figure 1 As shown, this application scenario mainly includes: terminal 100, crane 101, and vehicle-mounted gateway 102. The vehicle-mounted gateway 102 is a device used for communication and data transmission between crane 101 and an external network. It acts as a bridge between the internal and external networks of crane 101, allowing crane 101 to interact with terminal 100. It can be installed at the bottom, rear, top, or inside the cab of crane 101. It should be noted that the number of these devices can be greater. Figure 1 The introduction will only use one crane, vehicle-mounted gateway, and terminal as an example.

[0057] Terminal 100 can communicate with vehicle gateway 102 via cellular mobile communication technology, which may include 5th generation mobile network (5G) technology and future 6th generation mobile network (6G) technology.

[0058] Terminal 100 can also communicate with vehicle gateway 102 via short-range wireless communication, which may include Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) technology.

[0059] Terminal 100 is a device that can provide users with voice and / or data connectivity, including: handheld terminal devices with wireless connectivity, vehicle-mounted terminal devices, etc.

[0060] Terminal 100 includes, but is not limited to: mobile phones, tablets, laptops, handheld computers, mobile internet devices (MID), wireless terminal devices in autonomous driving, and wireless terminal devices in transportation safety. It can display and evaluate the lateral bending data measured by the above-mentioned sensing modules in real time, and can also provide real-time warnings during boom operation to prevent severe lateral bending of the boom from causing accidents such as boom breakage and overturning of the crane.

[0061] Crane 101 refers to a multi-action lifting machine that vertically lifts and horizontally moves heavy objects within a certain range, also known as overhead crane, gantry crane, crane, etc.

[0062] In some scenarios, the sensing modules installed on the boom of crane 101, such as Figure 1 As shown, a first sensing module installed on the first end point 101a of the boom is used to measure the lateral bending data generated during boom extension, lifting, and other movements at the first end point 101a, such as the first tilt angle of the boom relative to the ground, the first roll angle when the boom rotates, and the first distance of the first end point 101a from the ground. A second sensing module installed on the second end point 101b of the boom is used to measure the lateral bending data generated during boom extension, lifting, and other movements at the second end point 101b, such as the second tilt angle of the boom relative to the ground, the second roll angle when the boom rotates, and the second distance of the second end point 101b from the ground. This facilitates the subsequent detection of the lateral bending detection result of the boom based on the first tilt angle, the first roll angle, the first distance, the second tilt angle, the second roll angle, and the second distance.

[0063] In some scenarios, the perception module includes an inclination sensor and a laser ranging sensor; further, it can also include an analog to digital converter (ADC), a general purpose input and output port (GPIO), an LED lamp, a transistor-transistor logic (TTL) interface, etc., and is integrated into a microcontroller unit (MCU) to realize real-time measurement of the side bending data. As shown in Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a structural diagram of the perception module according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0064] In Figure 2 , the inclination sensor 2011 and the laser ranging sensor 2012 in the perception module 200 are connected with a serial communication bus (for example, an RS485 bus); the inclination sensor is used to measure the inclination angle of the boom relative to the ground and the roll angle when the boom rotates; the laser ranging sensor is used to measure the distance from the end point of the boom to the ground. The model, type and material of the inclination sensor and the laser ranging sensor can be reasonably designed according to actual needs, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0065] The analog to digital converter 2013 in the perception module 200 can be used to collect the power of the lithium battery and convert it into a corresponding percentage, so as to monitor the power usage of the perception module in real time and facilitate timely charging of the perception module 200.

[0066] The general purpose input and output port 2014 in the perception module 200 can be used for power output control to realize switch control of the power output.

[0067] The LED lamp 2015 in the perception module 200 can be used to display state information, such as the running state, the starting state and the fault state of the perception module.

[0068] The TTL interface 2016 in the perception module 200 is connected with a wireless module to realize interaction with a terminal.

[0069] In some embodiments, the perception module 200 further includes an on-chip memory for storage, an IIC interface and other required components.

[0070] It should be noted that the structure of the perception module shown in Figure 2 is only an example, and the specific layout of the wiring and the layout of the devices can be flexibly designed according to actual needs, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0071] Further, in the case where there are multiple booms of the crane 101, the sensing module can be installed at both ends of each boom.

[0072] In other scenarios, due to the distributed arrangement of structural components on the boom, the extension, lifting and other movements of the boom make the wiring more difficult on the basis of the distributed arrangement, and there are steel structures and strong electromagnetic environments around, so the sensing module is designed to be a wireless and self-powered sensing module.

[0073] In other scenarios, the sensing module can also be designed with a magnet, so that the sensing module can be magnetically attracted to the respective end point, thereby maximizing the difficulty and time of disassembly or assembly of the test tooling, and improving the installation efficiency.

[0074] To further illustrate the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application, the following will be described in detail in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments. Although the embodiments of the present application provide the method operation steps as described in the following embodiments or shown in the drawings, more or fewer operation steps can be included in the method based on conventional or non-creative labor. The execution order of these steps is not limited to the execution order provided by the embodiments of the present application in the logical sense. The method can be executed in the order shown in the embodiments or drawings or in parallel during actual processing or device execution.

[0075] Figure 3 A flowchart of an arm side bending detection method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The flowchart can be executed by an arm side bending detection system to accurately detect the arm side bending and improve the operation safety of the crane. As shown in Figure 3 The flowchart includes the following steps:

[0076] 301: Based on the first sensing module installed at the first end point of the boom, measure the first inclination angle of the boom relative to the ground, the first roll angle when the boom rotates, and measure the first distance from the first end point to the ground.

[0077] Taking the scenario shown in the above Figure 1 As an example, the first sensing module installed at the first end point 101a is the sensing module 200 shown in Figure 2 The inclination sensor 2011 in the sensing module 200 can be used to measure the first inclination angle (θ1) of the boom relative to the ground and the first roll angle (φ1) when the boom rotates in real time. The laser ranging sensor 2012 in the sensing module 200 can also be used to measure the first distance (L1) from the first end point 101a to the ground in real time, which is used as the side bending data measured at the first end point, and is used as the basis for subsequent detailed analysis of the degree of side bending of the boom.

[0078] 302: Based on the second sensing module installed on the second end of the boom, measure the second tilt angle of the boom relative to the ground, the second roll angle when the boom rotates, and the second distance of the second end from the ground.

[0079] Based on the above Figure 1 Taking the scenario shown as an example, the second sensing module installed on the second endpoint 101b is... Figure 2 In the case of the sensing module 200 shown, the second tilt angle (θ2) of the boom relative to the ground and the second roll angle when the boom rotates can be measured in real time by the tilt sensor 2011 in the sensing module 200. The laser rangefinder 2012 in the sensing module 200 can also measure the first distance (L2) from the ground to the second endpoint 101b in real time and use it as the lateral bending data measured at the second endpoint, so as to facilitate a detailed analysis of the degree of lateral bending of the boom.

[0080] It should be noted that the order of execution for 301 and 302 is not important. 301 and 302 can be executed simultaneously, or 302 can be executed first and 301 can be executed later.

[0081] 303: Detect the lateral bending test results of the boom based on the first tilt angle, first roll angle, first distance, second tilt angle, second roll angle, and second distance.

[0082] In some embodiments, detecting the lateral bending detection result of the boom can specifically involve: calculating the arc length of the boom and the central angle of the arc length based on the first tilt angle, the first distance, the second tilt angle, and the second distance; calculating the length difference between the arc length and the straight length of the boom, and calculating the roll angle difference between the first roll angle and the second roll angle; and detecting the lateral bending detection result of the boom based on the length difference, the central angle, and the roll angle difference. This allows for the detection of the lateral bending phenomenon of the boom from different dimensions, improving the accuracy of the boom lateral bending detection result.

[0083] Furthermore, based on Figure 4 The above-view diagram of a heavy object being lifted by a boom shows how to calculate the arc length of the boom and the central angle of that arc. This can be achieved through the following process:

[0084] First, respectively at the first endpoint ( Figure 4 Point A in the middle), the second endpoint ( Figure 4 Establish a corresponding coordinate system with point B in the arc (AB). The tangent direction at point A of the arc length (AB) is the x-axis, the angle between point A and the ground is the first tilt angle (θ1), the tangent direction at point B of the arc (AB) is the x-axis, and the angle between point B and the ground is the second tilt angle (θ2).

[0085] Secondly, make parallel line of ground at A point, and make vertical line of ground at B point, get right triangle ABD, and calculate the length of BD as L2-L1, according to Thus, the arc length is converted to

[0086] Then, according to the diameter of the vertical arc bisecting chord, and bisecting chord of two arcs, make the median OE of AB; according to the tangent of the circle vertical through the tangent, and the tangent through the tangent vertical line through the center of the circle, make the vertical OA and OB of A and B points, and the above median, two auxiliary lines intersect at the center of the circle, and calculate

[0087] Further, extend OE to intersect the tangent x-axis at A point and F point, since ∠OAF=90°=∠OAD+θ1, thus the conversion of ∠OAD=90°-θ1, further ∠OAE=∠OAD+θ2=90°-θ1+θ2.

[0088] Similarly, in the right triangle OAE, according to The arc radius is converted to Further conversion to And in EOA, according to Thus, sinα=cos(90°-θ1+θ2), further α=arcsin[cos(90°-θ1+θ2)].

[0089] Summarized above, the radius of the circle corresponding to AB At the same time, ∠BOA=2α=2*arcsin[cos(90°-θ1+θ2)], and the arc length

[0090] In the above calculation process, the sin() involved is the sine calculation, cos() is the cosine calculation, and arcsin() is the inverse sine calculation.

[0091] Further, the above Figure 4 For example, in the ideal case, the arm is straight when lifting the load, the ideal arm is a straight line of length AC=L, due to the influence of structural deformation, manufacturing welding process, and lifting the load, empty load extension, telescopic load operation, the actual shape of the arm is arc length AB=L3; Therefore, the calculated length difference ΔL=L3-L.

[0092] Further, in the deformation of the arm support, not only the changes of the tilt angle and the arc length are embodied, but also the changes of the arm support at the A point and the C point in the roll direction (also referred to as the deformation degree of the twist deformation) are embodied. In an ideal case, the roll angles measured at the A point and the C point should be consistent. Therefore, the roll angle difference

[0093] Further, according to the length difference (ΔL), the central angle (2α), and the roll angle difference The side bending detection result of the arm support at least includes the following cases:

[0094] Case 1, if the length difference is less than or equal to a first length threshold, the central angle is less than or equal to a first central angle threshold, and the roll angle difference is less than or equal to a first roll angle threshold, it is detected that the side bending detection result is to allow full-load use of the arm support, indicating that the arm support is in a safe operating range. In some embodiments, the first length threshold is set based on the straight length of the arm support, for example, the first length threshold is 1.2%*L; the first central angle threshold is set based on the maximum bending angle of the arm support, for example, the first central angle threshold is 35%α max ; the first roll angle threshold is set based on the maximum deformation degree of the arm support in the roll direction, for example, the first roll angle threshold is 35%α

[0095] Case 2, if the length difference is greater than the first length threshold and less than or equal to a second length threshold (for example, ≤2%*L), the central angle is greater than the first central angle threshold and less than or equal to a second central angle threshold (for example, ≤65%α max ), the roll angle difference is greater than the first roll angle threshold and less than or equal to a second roll angle threshold (for example, ≤65%α ), it is detected that the side bending detection result is to prohibit full-load use of the arm support.

[0096] In some other embodiments, in the case of detecting that the side bending detection result is to prohibit full-load use of the arm support, prompt information for prompting to prohibit use of the arm support in a full-load state can be generated and sent to an associated terminal (such as the terminal 100 shown in the figure), so as to facilitate prompting the user to safely operate the arm support according to the restriction requirement. Figure 1

[0097] Case 3, if the length difference is greater than the second length threshold, the central angle is greater than the second central angle threshold, and the roll angle difference is greater than the second roll angle threshold, it is detected that the side bending detection result is to prohibit use of the arm support, indicating that the arm support is not in a safe operating range.

[0098] ​In some embodiments, in the case that the side-bending detection result is detected as the arm support being prohibited from use, alarm information for prompting that the arm support has a side-bending safety hazard can be generated and sent to the associated terminal (such as the terminal 100 shown in FIG. 1) to facilitate the user to take timely measures. Figure 1

[0099] Case 4: If the length difference is less than or equal to a third length threshold (for example, ≤ 0.65%*L), the central angle is less than or equal to a third central angle threshold (for example, ≤ 65%a max ), and the roll angle difference is less than or equal to a third roll angle threshold (for example, ≤ 65%a ), the side-bending detection result is detected as the side-bending degree of the arm support being almost none, within the optimal range.

[0100] In some embodiments, in the above-mentioned cases, if any one of the constraint conditions in a certain case is not met, the side-bending detection result is detected as the arm support having a significant side-bending phenomenon, and the arm support is unqualified. Notification information (which can include information such as the reason for the arm support being unqualified, the model of the arm support, and the size of the arm support) for prompting that the arm support is unqualified can be generated and sent to the associated terminal (such as the terminal 100 shown in FIG. 1) to facilitate the user to perform maintenance processing based on the notification information.

[0101] In the embodiments of the present application, by setting the above-mentioned constraint conditions, not only the side-bending detection of the arm support can be realized, but also real-time early warning during the operation of the arm support can be realized, the safety is improved, and the user experience is met.

[0102] It should be noted that the above-mentioned constraint conditions are only examples, and in actual judgment, they can be flexibly set, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0104] Based on the above-mentioned Figure 3 ​​The method shown can install a sensing module at both end points of each boom in the case of multiple booms of the crane to realize real-time measurement of the side bending data of each boom.

[0105] Based on the above Figure 3 According to the above description of the arc length, the central angle, and the roll angle difference of the multiple booms, it can be inferred that the arc length, the central angle, and the roll angle difference of the multiple booms satisfy the following expressions respectively:
