Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of hoisting technology, in particular to a mixed suspension for a truck crane, a control method and a truck crane. BACKGROUND

[0002] Based on cost and layout considerations, most five-axle truck cranes use rear leaf spring suspension plus 345 axle drive. Leaf spring suspension is mature and reliable, low in cost, but limited by vehicle height, leaf spring life, etc., the up and down travel of the axle is small; the distance between the axles of the 3 / 4 / 5 axle drive is small, and the distance between the axles of the 2 / 3 axle drive is large, which easily causes the 3rd or 5th axle to be suspended and slip when going uphill or over a pothole road, and a differential lock must be engaged. Frequent engagement of the differential lock not only affects customer experience, but also easily damages the axle if the customer does not disengage the differential lock in time.

[0003] Five-axle truck cranes have more counterweights, and there are various running states with counterweights (carrying different counterweight combinations), so the axle load of the front / rear suspension changes greatly. For a mixed suspension of oil gas and leaf spring, the sensitivity of the two types of suspensions to axle load is very different, which inevitably leads to inconsistent front / rear height of the vehicle under different axle loads. Therefore, the mixed suspension must have a leveling function.

[0004] Since the height change of the leaf spring suspension under different axle load states is small, it can be used as a vehicle leveling reference, and the oil gas suspension is adjusted to the appropriate height to ensure that the front and rear heights of the vehicle are consistent. Since the specific height of the leaf spring suspension in the mixed suspension under different axle load states cannot be obtained, leveling cannot be performed by fixing the height. The existing mixed suspension has a suspension cylinder with a length sensor, which uses the length sensor to level the vehicle, and the structure is complex and the production cost is high. SUMMARY

The two lower push rods 410 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the vehicle axle 600, the lower push rod 410 is located below the corresponding upper push rod 400, the lower push rod 410 is perpendicular to the length direction of the vehicle axle 600, and the ends of the two lower push rods 410 away from the vehicle axle 600 are hinged to the corresponding oil-gas suspension supports 411 through pin shafts.

In use, the working position of the electromagnetic reversing valve 230 can be changed by supplying power to different electromagnetic coils. For example, when the first electromagnetic coil DT01 of the left electromagnetic reversing valve 230 is powered, the left electromagnetic reversing valve 230 works on the left side; when the second electromagnetic coil DT02 of the left electromagnetic reversing valve 230 is powered, the left electromagnetic reversing valve 230 works on the right side; similarly, the working condition of the right electromagnetic reversing valve 230 is the same as that of the left electromagnetic reversing valve 230.

[0056] In an embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 3 The control valve assembly 200 further comprises a first damper 270 and a second damper 271, the first connection port A2 of the first damper 270 is in communication with the inlet of the first check valve 210, and the second connection port B2 of the first damper 270 is in communication with the outlet of the first check valve 210. The first damper 270 is arranged to control the speed of oil supply to the rod cavity of the right suspension oil cylinder 320, reduce vibration and impact, and prolong the service life of the right suspension oil cylinder 320.

The second damper 271 is arranged to control the speed of oil supply to the rod cavity of the left suspension oil cylinder 310, reduce vibration and impact, and prolong the service life of the left suspension oil cylinder 310.

[0058] In an embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 3 The control valve assembly 200 further comprises a first accumulator 272 and a second accumulator 273, the first accumulator 272 is in communication with the first connection port A2 of the first damper 270 and the inlet of the first check valve 210; the first accumulator 272 is used to provide pressure for the rodless cavity of the right suspension oil cylinder 320, and maintain its stable state. The second accumulator 273 is in communication with the first connection port A2 of the second damper 271 and the inlet of the second check valve 220, and the second accumulator 273 is used to provide pressure for the rodless cavity of the left suspension oil cylinder 310, and maintain its stable state.

[0059] In an embodiment of the present application, the control valve assembly 200 further comprises a third damper 274, and the third damper 274 is arranged at the working oil port of the electromagnetic reversing valve 230. Specifically, as shown in Figure 3As shown, the control valve assembly 200 includes two third dampers 274, the third damper 274 on the left is arranged at the working oil port of the left electromagnetic directional valve 230, and the third damper 274 on the right is arranged at the working oil port of the right electromagnetic directional valve 230.

[0060] In an embodiment of the present application, the leaf spring suspension 100 is arranged at the lower part of the front end of the vehicle frame 500, and the suspension cylinder assembly 300 is arranged at the lower part of the rear end of the vehicle frame 500, wherein the front end of the vehicle frame 500 refers to the end of the vehicle frame 500 close to the vehicle head, and the rear end of the vehicle frame 500 refers to the end of the vehicle frame 500 away from the vehicle head.

[0061] The working principle of the hybrid suspension for the automobile crane of the present application is as follows:

[0062] When the vehicle frame 500 is inclined to the left, that is, the right side of the vehicle frame 500 is high and the left side is low, at this time, the control valve assembly 200 needs to control the left suspension cylinder 310 to elongate and the right suspension cylinder 320 to shorten. By supplying power to the second electromagnetic coil DT02 of the left electromagnetic directional valve 230 and the third electromagnetic coil DT03 of the right electromagnetic directional valve 230, the left electromagnetic directional valve 230 works in the right position, and the right electromagnetic directional valve 230 works in the left position, so that the pressure oil passes through the right position of the left electromagnetic directional valve 230, then passes through the third connecting port B1 into the rodless cavity of the left suspension cylinder 310, the pressure oil in the rod cavity of the left suspension cylinder 310 enters the right electromagnetic directional valve 230 through the fourth pipeline 263, the fourth connecting port A1 and the first connecting pipeline 240, and finally enters the oil return tank through the oil return port of the right electromagnetic directional valve 230 and the oil return pipe, thereby realizing the elongation of the left suspension cylinder 310. At the same time, the pressure oil at the working oil port of the left electromagnetic directional valve 230 enters the rod cavity of the right suspension cylinder 320 through the second connecting pipe, the second connecting port B2 and the second pipeline 261, the pressure oil in the rodless cavity of the right suspension cylinder 320 enters the right electromagnetic directional valve 230 through the first pipeline 260, the first connecting port A2 and the first connecting pipeline 240, and finally enters the oil return tank through the oil return port of the right electromagnetic directional valve 230 and the oil return pipe.

[0063] When the vehicle frame 500 is inclined to the right, that is, the left side of the vehicle frame 500 is high and the right side is low, at this time, the control valve assembly 200 needs to control the right suspension cylinder 320 to elongate and the left suspension cylinder 310 to shorten. Similarly, by supplying power to the first electromagnetic coil DT01 of the left electromagnetic directional valve 230 and the fourth electromagnetic coil DT04 of the right electromagnetic directional valve 230, the left electromagnetic directional valve 230 works in the left position, and the right electromagnetic directional valve 230 works in the right position, thereby realizing the leveling of the vehicle frame.

[0064] The mixed suspension for a truck crane provided by the application detects the inclination angle of the vehicle frame 500 through the inclination detection assembly, controls the extension or shortening of the two groups of suspension cylinder assemblies 300 according to the inclination angle through the control valve assembly 200, and levels the vehicle frame 500.

[0065] The application further provides a control method of the mixed suspension for a truck crane, which is based on the mixed suspension for a truck crane according to any one of the above embodiments, and comprises the following steps:

[0066] determining whether the obtained inclination angle is within a preset range;

[0067] controlling the extension or shortening of the two groups of suspension cylinder assemblies 300 according to the inclination angle to level the vehicle frame 500 when it is determined that the inclination angle is out of the preset range.

[0068] In one embodiment of the application, the step of controlling the extension or shortening of the two groups of suspension cylinder assemblies 300 according to the inclination angle to level the vehicle frame 500 comprises:

[0069] controlling the left suspension cylinder 310 to extend and the right suspension cylinder 320 to shorten when the inclination angle indicates that the vehicle frame 500 is inclined to the left;
