At the same time, the engine of the crane is always running when operating, which will produce a lot of noise, causing negative impacts on the environment and the physical and mental health of the driver.

[0042] Combine the following Figures 1 to 5 , describing an embodiment of the present invention.
[0043] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a crane is provided, comprising: a travel drive system 1, a fuel cell system 2, an operating system 3 and a control system.

The oil pump motor 303 drives the operating oil pump 305, and the operating oil pump 305 provides hydraulic oil of different pressures and flows to the luffing oil cylinder and the telescopic oil cylinder. Due to the incompressibility of the hydraulic oil, the luffing oil cylinder and the telescopic oil cylinder can provide smooth and impact-free movement. The luffing oil cylinder and the telescopic oil cylinder themselves have simple structures, small volumes, and light weights, and are easy to install in small and limited spaces.
[0046] Furthermore, the operating system 3 converts the energy output by the fuel cell system 2 into mechanical energy to move the heavy object vertically, horizontally and in different directions.
[0047] It should be noted that the hoist box 306, the slewing assembly, the luffing assembly and the telescopic boom can all adopt structures in the prior art, and will not be described in detail in this step.
[0048] In one embodiment, Figures 1 to 4As shown, the control system includes a vehicle controller 4, the fuel cell system 2 also includes a fuel cell controller 203, the operation system 3 also includes a vehicle controller 304, and the driving mechanism also includes a vehicle controller 102.

[0049] Furthermore, the vehicle control system makes decisions based on the driver's operating intentions and the real-time status of each system through calculation and analysis, reasonably distributes kinetic energy, controls the crane's acceleration and deceleration, energy recovery, and fault detection, so that the crane operates in the best state.
[0050] It should be noted that the control logic adopted by the vehicle control system can be the control logic in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.
[0051] In one embodiment, both the boarding controller and the disembarking controller 102 are all-in-one controllers. By concentrating the functions of multiple controllers in one controller, the required hardware quantity is reduced, thereby reducing the complexity and installation difficulty of the system; the number of connecting cables between each independent controller is reduced, making the wiring more concise and reducing the risk of wiring errors.
[0052] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the crane also includes a thermal management system 5 and a cab. The thermal management system 5 includes a battery cooling system and a heater. The battery cooling system includes a circulation pump and a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger is arranged in the cab. The battery stack 201, the circulation pump, the heater, and the heat exchanger form a water circulation loop. After the heat generated by the battery stack 201 is transferred to the cooling water, the heat of the cooling water is exchanged through the heat exchanger to heat the cab. If the heating demand of the cab is relatively large, the cooling water flowing out of the battery stack 201 can also be further heated by the heater and then flowed into the heat exchanger to improve the heating effect. The cooling water after heat exchange flows into the battery stack 201 to continue cooling the battery stack 201. The heat generated after the reaction of the battery stack 201 is used as the heat source of the heater, thereby providing heat for the heating of the cab.
[0053] Furthermore, the heater is a PTC heater, and the core component of the PTC heater is a PTC thermistor, which is a special ceramic material whose resistance value changes significantly with temperature. Specifically, when the temperature is below a certain critical point, the resistance of the PTC material is low; when the temperature reaches or exceeds this critical point, the resistance increases rapidly, thereby limiting the further increase of the current and preventing overheating. The PTC heater has the advantages of high safety, energy saving and high efficiency, and long service life.
[0054] Specifically, the thermal management system 5 automatically adjusts the cooling intensity according to different working conditions and environmental conditions of the crane to ensure that the cooled object operates within the optimal temperature range, thereby optimizing the environmental performance and energy-saving effect of the crane, while improving the operating safety and driving comfort of the crane.
[0055] In one embodiment, the thermal management system 5 further includes an air conditioning system, which includes an air conditioning compressor, a condenser and an evaporator, and the compressor, the condenser and the evaporator form a refrigerant circulation loop. The air conditioning system cools or heats the cab to improve the operator's working environment and comfort. A comfortable working environment helps reduce the operator's fatigue, especially in the case of long-term operation, which can significantly improve work efficiency and accuracy.
[0056] In one embodiment, two cabs are provided, and two heat exchangers are provided, and the two cabs and the two heat exchangers are provided in a one-to-one correspondence. One cab is a cab for getting off the vehicle when driving, and the other cab is a cab for getting on the vehicle when working. The operator can choose the most suitable cab according to the working requirements, thereby improving the flexibility of operation. A heat exchanger is provided in each cab to improve the working environment and comfort of the operator in each cab.
[0057] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, two heaters are also provided, namely, a PTC heater 501 for getting on the vehicle and a PTC heater 502 for getting off the vehicle. Two air-conditioning compressors are also provided, namely, a PTC compressor 503 for getting on the vehicle and a PTC compressor 504 for getting off the vehicle. In this case, two evaporators are provided, and one or two condensers can be provided.

[0058] In one embodiment, the traveling mechanism is a wheel-type traveling mechanism or a crawler-type traveling mechanism, and the driving motor 101 is connected to the wheel-type traveling mechanism or the crawler-type traveling mechanism through the transmission 107. The wheel-type traveling mechanism or the crawler-type traveling mechanism can adopt the mechanism in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.
[0059] In one embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the travel drive mechanism also includes an electric air compressor 103 and a brake air tank 104. The electric air compressor 103 is electrically connected to the get-off controller 102, and the electric air compressor 103 is connected to the brake air tank. The electric air compressor 103 is used to generate compressed air to provide a power source for the pneumatic system. The brake air tank 104 is used to store compressed air to ensure that the pneumatic system has sufficient pressure when needed. The electric air compressor 103 and the brake air tank 104 achieve fast and reliable gear shifting.
[0060] Furthermore, the driving motor 101 is connected to the transmission 107, and the travel driving mechanism also includes an air filter, a dryer, and a shift actuator. The air filter, the electric air compressor 103, the dryer, the brake air storage tank 104, and the shift actuator are connected in sequence, and the shift actuator is connected to the transmission 107. The air filter is used to filter the air entering the pneumatic system, remove dust, impurities and moisture therein, and ensure that the air entering the system is clean. The dryer is used to further remove moisture from the compressed air to prevent moisture from entering the pneumatic system and avoid problems such as rust and freezing. The shift actuator is a cylinder, etc., which pushes the shift lever or shift fork of the transmission 107 through the cylinder to achieve gear switching.
[0061] In one embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the travel drive mechanism further includes an electric steering oil pump 105 and a steering gear 106. The electric steering oil pump 105 is electrically connected to the vehicle exit controller 102. The electric steering oil pump 105 is connected to the steering gear 106. The steering gear 106 is used to control the steering of the travel mechanism. When the driver turns the steering wheel, the electric steering oil pump 105 provides appropriate hydraulic power according to the information fed back by the sensor, and transmits the power to the wheels through the steering gear 106, making steering easier and more precise.
[0062] Furthermore, the oil inlet of the electric steering oil pump 105 is connected to the hydraulic oil tank 9, and the hydraulic oil tank 9, the electric steering oil pump 105, the operating oil pump 305, the telescopic cylinder, the luffing cylinder and the steering gear 106 form a hydraulic system. The output of external energy is converted into hydraulic energy through the electric steering oil pump 105 and the operating oil pump 305, thereby providing power for the telescopic, luffing and steering movements of the crane.
[0063] Specifically, the driving system 1 converts the energy output by the fuel cell system 2 into mechanical energy, propels the vehicle to overcome various rolling resistances, air resistances, acceleration resistances and climbing resistances, and converts kinetic energy into electrical energy during braking and feeds it back to the energy storage system.
[0064] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the fuel cell system 2 also includes a boost converter 204, and the crane also includes a battery distribution unit 6. The battery stack 201 is electrically connected to the onboard controller 304 and the offboard controller 102 through the boost converter 204 and the battery distribution unit 6. The oxygen and hydrogen in the air undergo an electrochemical reaction under the action of the catalyst in the battery stack 201 to generate electrical energy, which is then transported to the boost converter 204 (English abbreviation: DCF) for voltage boosting. After the DCF boosts and reduces the current, it is then transported to the PDU (high-voltage distribution unit), which distributes the electrical energy to related components such as motors to provide power for them. The efficiency of the boost converter is usually very high, which can effectively reduce energy loss. The BDU manages and distributes the electricity from the DCF to ensure safe and efficient power supply for various loads of the vehicle.
[0065] Furthermore, the hydrogen supply mechanism includes a hydrogen storage bottle 205, a hydrogen sensor 206 and a hydrogen storage controller 207. The hydrogen storage bottle 205 is connected to the battery stack 201, and the hydrogen storage controller 207 is electrically connected to the vehicle controller 4 and the hydrogen sensor 206. The hydrogen supply mechanism provides a hydrogen source for the fuel cell vehicle to ensure the safe, reliable and stable operation of the fuel cell vehicle. The hydrogen sensor 206 is used to detect the hydrogen concentration of the hydrogen supply mechanism to ensure that hydrogen leakage can be detected in time. The hydrogen sensor 206 can also be used to monitor the hydrogen concentration in the vehicle's surrounding environment to prevent external leakage from affecting safety. The hydrogen storage controller 207 is responsible for monitoring and controlling the pressure in the hydrogen storage bottle 205 to ensure that hydrogen is stored and supplied within a safe range. The hydrogen supply pressure can be dynamically adjusted according to the needs of the vehicle to optimize the working efficiency of the fuel cell. The hydrogen sensor 206 continuously monitors the hydrogen concentration in the hydrogen storage bottle 205 and the hydrogen supply pipeline. The hydrogen storage controller 207 adjusts the hydrogen supply pressure and flow rate according to the information fed back by the sensor to ensure the stable operation of the system.
[0066] Furthermore, the air supply mechanism includes an air filter 208 and an air compressor 209 connected to each other. The air compressor 209 is connected to the battery stack 201. The air filter 208 filters dust, particulate matter and other pollutants contained in the air before entering the air compressor 209 to protect the internal components of the air compressor 209 from wear and tear and ensure the quality of the output air. The air compressor 209 compresses the inhaled air to a higher pressure to provide the required high-pressure gas for subsequent use.
[0067] It should be noted that the travel drive system 1 and the air supply mechanism may share an air compressor 209 , or may not share the air compressor 209 .
[0068] In one embodiment, Figure 1As shown, the crane also includes a power battery 7 and a storage battery 8. The power battery 7 is electrically connected to the PDU, and the storage battery 8 is electrically connected to the vehicle controller 4. The excess electric energy generated by the fuel cell system 2 can be stored in the power battery 7 to avoid energy waste. The storage battery 8 provides power for the low-voltage electrical system of the vehicle to ensure the normal operation of the low-voltage electrical system.
