Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of new energy dump truck technology, specifically to a method for preventing dump trucks from tipping over. Background Technology
[0002] Dump trucks operate on complex and varied road conditions, often rugged and uneven, with frequent slopes and curves, creating a harsh driving environment. Sometimes, they even have to unload on steep inclines. Furthermore, the type of cargo loaded significantly impacts the stability of the dump truck. For example, with the same vehicle, if the cargo is dry sand, the cargo will be unloaded once the cargo box is raised to a certain angle, preventing a rollover accident. However, if the cargo is clay, even when the cargo box is raised to a considerable angle, a significant amount of cargo will remain on the box. In this case, the vehicle's center of gravity is very high, and if the center of gravity shifts to one side, a rollover accident can occur. Summary of the Invention

[0018] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0019] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of this application described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.
[0020] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application provides a method for preventing dump truck rollover, including:
[0021] S1 acquires the vehicle tilt angle and steering wheel angle formed by the vehicle and the ground in real time;
[0022] S2 determines the relationship between the vehicle tilt angle and the first preset tilt angle and the second preset tilt angle;
[0023] S3 determines the relationship between the steering wheel angle and the preset angle;
[0024] S4 controls the vehicle state based on the relationship between the overall vehicle tilt angle and the first preset tilt angle and the second preset tilt angle, and the relationship between the steering wheel angle and the preset angle.
[0025] Specifically, by controlling the dump truck according to the relationship between the overall vehicle tilt angle and the first and second preset tilt angles, users can promptly detect dangerous situations during the driving and lifting processes of the dump truck, effectively improving the stability and safety of the entire vehicle.
[0026] The first preset tilt angle and the second preset tilt angle can be further determined based on the maximum permissible tilt angle when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary with the cargo box not lifted and the maximum permissible tilt angle when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary with the cargo box lifted. Alternatively, they can be directly set to the maximum permissible tilt angle when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary with the cargo box not lifted and the maximum permissible tilt angle when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary with the cargo box lifted. In addition, they can be determined based on the maximum permissible tilt angle when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary with the cargo box not lifted at a certain vehicle speed and the maximum permissible tilt angle when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary with the cargo box lifted at a certain vehicle speed. Or they can be determined based on the maximum permissible tilt angle when the vehicle has a certain mass (not fully loaded) and stationary with the cargo box not lifted and the maximum permissible tilt angle when the vehicle has a certain mass (not fully loaded) and stationary with the cargo box lifted.
[0027] The following embodiments of this application describe how to further determine a first preset tilt angle and a second preset tilt angle based on the maximum permissible tilt angle when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary with the cargo box not raised, and the maximum permissible tilt angle when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary with the cargo box raised.
[0028] As an optional implementation, it further includes: determining a first maximum permissible tilt angle when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary with the cargo box not raised; determining a second maximum permissible tilt angle when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary with the cargo box raised; the first preset tilt angle is the first maximum permissible tilt angle minus a first preset difference; the second preset tilt angle is the second maximum permissible tilt angle minus a second preset difference.
[0029] Specifically, the specific values for the first preset difference and the second preset difference can be determined based on the dump truck's model, condition, etc.; moreover, the first preset difference and the second preset difference can be equal or unequal. For example, the range for the first preset difference and the second preset difference can be 1-2. Furthermore, the first maximum permissible tilt angle is the critical value at which the vehicle will not tip over when fully loaded and stationary with the cargo box not raised; the second maximum permissible tilt angle is the critical value at which the vehicle will not tip over when fully loaded and stationary with the cargo box raised. Therefore, it is easy to understand that since raising the cargo box causes the vehicle's overall center of gravity to rise, the second maximum permissible tilt angle is less than the first maximum permissible tilt angle.
[0030] Setting the first preset tilt angle and the second preset tilt angle to the first maximum permissible tilt angle minus the first preset difference and the second maximum permissible tilt angle minus the second preset difference respectively ensures that the vehicle will not roll over under all working conditions, further guaranteeing the stability and safety of the entire vehicle.
[0031] As an optional implementation, it also includes: the preset turning angle is the maximum steering wheel turning angle minus a third preset difference.
[0032] Specifically, when the steering wheel angle is large, the vehicle may make sharp turns and tend to roll over. To avoid this, the preset angle can be set to the maximum steering wheel angle minus a third preset difference, which can further ensure the stability and safety of the vehicle.
[0033] The third preset difference can be set according to the actual vehicle model, load, etc. For example, the third preset difference can be set to 2-3.
[0034] As an optional implementation, controlling the vehicle state based on the relationship between the overall vehicle tilt angle and the first preset tilt angle and the second preset tilt angle, and the relationship between the steering wheel angle and the preset steering angle, includes: in the driving state, if the overall vehicle tilt angle is greater than or equal to the first preset tilt angle and the steering wheel angle is less than the preset steering angle, controlling the power supply to the vehicle's dumping system to be cut off, and controlling the vehicle speed to be less than or equal to the first preset vehicle speed; if the overall vehicle tilt angle is greater than or equal to the first preset tilt angle and the steering wheel angle is greater than or equal to the preset steering angle, controlling the power supply to the vehicle's dumping system to be cut off, and controlling the vehicle speed to be less than or equal to the second preset vehicle speed; the second preset vehicle speed is less than the first preset vehicle speed.
[0035] Specifically, when the vehicle is in motion and not in a lifted state, the dumping system should be disconnected. However, to prevent unforeseen circumstances, the dumping system is still powered off when the vehicle's tilt angle exceeds a first preset angle. Simultaneously, if the steering wheel angle is less than the preset angle, the vehicle speed is controlled to be less than or equal to a first preset speed; if the steering wheel angle is greater than or equal to the preset angle, the vehicle speed is controlled to be less than or equal to a second preset speed. This significantly reduces the risk of vehicle rollover during operation, further ensuring the vehicle's stability and safety.
[0036] The first preset speed can be a safe speed at which the vehicle will not roll over when the overall tilt angle is the first preset tilt angle and the steering wheel angle is less than a preset angle. The second preset speed can be a safe speed at which the vehicle will not roll over when the overall tilt angle is the first preset tilt angle and the steering wheel angle is greater than or equal to a preset angle. This application does not impose further limitations on this.
[0037] In addition, when the vehicle is in motion and the overall vehicle tilt angle is greater than the first preset tilt angle, the instrument panel, control panel, or sound output device in the driver's cab can be controlled to output a signal indicating that the vehicle is in a high-level rollover alarm state; when the steering wheel angle is greater than the preset angle, the instrument panel, control panel, or sound output device in the driver's cab can be controlled to output a signal indicating a steering wheel angle alarm state.
[0038] As an optional implementation, controlling the vehicle state based on the relationship between the overall vehicle tilt angle and the first preset tilt angle and the second preset tilt angle, and the relationship between the steering wheel angle and the preset angle, includes: in the driving state, if the overall vehicle tilt angle is greater than or equal to the second preset tilt angle and less than the first preset tilt angle, and the steering wheel angle is less than the preset angle, controlling the power off of the vehicle's dumping system; if the overall vehicle tilt angle is greater than or equal to the second preset tilt angle and less than the first preset tilt angle, and the steering wheel angle is greater than or equal to the preset angle, controlling the power off of the vehicle's dumping system, and controlling the vehicle speed to be less than or equal to a third preset speed.
[0039] Specifically, when the vehicle is in motion and not in a lifted state, the dumping system should be disconnected. However, to avoid special situations, the dumping system is still powered off when the vehicle tilt angle is greater than the second preset tilt angle but less than the first preset tilt angle. Simultaneously, if the steering wheel angle is less than the preset angle, no further vehicle movements are performed; if the steering wheel angle is greater than or equal to the preset angle, the vehicle speed is controlled to be less than or equal to the third preset speed.
[0040] The third preset speed can be a safe speed at which the vehicle will not roll over when the steering wheel angle is at its maximum.
[0041] In addition, when the vehicle is in motion and the overall vehicle tilt angle is greater than the second preset tilt angle but less than the first preset tilt angle, the instrument panel, control panel, or sound output device in the driver's cab can be controlled to output a signal indicating that the vehicle is in a low-level rollover alarm state; when the steering wheel angle is greater than a preset angle, the instrument panel, control panel, or sound output device in the driver's cab can be controlled to output a signal indicating a steering wheel angle alarm state.
[0042] As an optional implementation, controlling the vehicle state based on the relationship between the overall vehicle tilt angle and the first preset tilt angle and the second preset tilt angle, and the relationship between the steering wheel angle and the preset angle, includes: in the driving state, if the overall vehicle tilt angle is less than the second preset tilt angle and the steering wheel angle is greater than or equal to the preset angle, controlling the vehicle speed to be less than or equal to a fourth preset speed.
[0043] As an optional implementation, the fourth preset speed is the maximum permissible speed corresponding to the maximum steering wheel angle.
[0044] Specifically, the fourth preset speed can also be a safe speed at which the vehicle will not roll over when the steering wheel angle is at its maximum.
[0045] In addition, when the steering wheel angle is greater than the preset angle, the dashboard, control panel or sound output device in the driver's cab can be controlled to output a signal to indicate the steering wheel angle alarm.
[0046] As an optional implementation, controlling the vehicle state based on the relationship between the overall vehicle tilt angle and the first preset tilt angle and the second preset tilt angle, and the relationship between the steering wheel angle and the preset angle, includes: in the lifting state, if the overall vehicle tilt angle is greater than or equal to the second preset tilt angle, controlling the vehicle's dumping system to cut off power.
[0047] In the lifted state, some goods, such as fine sand, will be unloaded when the cargo box is raised to a certain angle, preventing a rollover accident. However, some goods, such as clay, which are larger in volume, will still have a significant amount remaining on the cargo box even when it is raised to a certain angle. In this case, the vehicle's center of gravity is very high, and if the center of gravity shifts to one side, a rollover accident can occur. Therefore, if the vehicle's tilt angle is greater than or equal to the second preset tilt angle, the vehicle's self-unloading system will be powered off to ensure vehicle stability and minimize the risk of rollover.
