Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vehicle control, in particular to a self-unloading vehicle control method and a self-unloading vehicle. BACKGROUND

[0002] The self-unloading vehicle is a truck for transporting bulk materials (such as sand, stone, soil, coal, building materials, etc.), which is widely used in construction, mining, agriculture and waste treatment industries. The cargo compartment of the self-unloading vehicle is tiltable, usually located at the rear of the vehicle, and can be controlled by hydraulic or mechanical means to lift one end of the cargo compartment and tilt at a certain angle, thereby using the weight of the cargo itself to unload the cargo to the ground. There are various unloading methods including side unloading, rear unloading and bottom unloading, among which rear unloading is more common. The self-unloading vehicle can significantly improve the loading and unloading efficiency and reduce labor costs. It usually has a large carrying capacity and can carry a large amount of bulk materials. It can quickly unload the cargo, reducing the loading and unloading time and improving the transportation efficiency.

[0003] When the cargo compartment is lifted together with the cargo, the center of gravity of the cargo compartment and the cargo becomes higher due to the uneven road surface or different tire pressure of the vehicle, which can easily cause the vehicle to roll over. If the cargo has certain viscosity, the cargo in the cargo compartment slips out unevenly, which can exacerbate the occurrence of vehicle rollover, causing the vehicle to be easily damaged and even causing personnel casualties and safety accidents in severe cases.

When the first height of the cargo hold is lower than the second height of the cargo hold and the difference between the first height and the second height is within a first set range, the side telescopic arm on the first side of the cargo hold and the side telescopic arm on the second side of the cargo hold can be driven to extend away from the cargo hold. When the side telescopic arm on the first side is extended, one end of the vertical telescopic arm on the side telescopic arm on the first side can be driven to abut against the ground. In this way, the vertical telescopic arm on the first side increases the support point of the vehicle by contacting one end of the vertical telescopic arm with the ground, thereby improving the stability of the vehicle. In this way, more stable support force can be provided to the first side of the cargo hold during unloading, thereby preventing side overturning.

The grip of the threaded cone on the side telescopic arm on the second side and the support force of the vertical telescopic arm on the side telescopic arm on the first side can effectively prevent the dump truck from overturning due to the shift of the center of gravity during unloading, thereby solving the problem of how to improve the stability of the dump truck during unloading.

[0050] The dump vehicle is to unload the cargo by lifting one end of the cargo compartment 31 and tilting it at an angle, thereby using the weight of the cargo itself to unload the cargo to the ground. However, when the cargo compartment 31 is lifted with the cargo, the center of gravity of the cargo compartment 31 and the cargo is easily raised due to uneven road surface (often unhardened road surface) or different tire pressure of the vehicle, thereby causing the vehicle to roll over. If the cargo has certain viscosity, causing the cargo in the cargo compartment 31 to slide out unevenly, this will exacerbate the occurrence of the vehicle roll over, which will cause the vehicle to be easily damaged, and in severe cases, cause a safety accident with casualties. For example, Figure 2As shown, the dump vehicle can include a vehicle head assembly 01, a vehicle beam assembly 02, a cargo carrying assembly 03, and a control assembly. The vehicle beam assembly 02 can include a beam frame unit 21, a second driving unit 22, and a support unit 23. The support unit 23 can include a side telescopic arm 231, a vertical telescopic arm 232, and a threaded taper 233. One end of the side telescopic arm 231 can be detachably connected to one side of the beam frame unit 21, and the other end can be fixedly connected to one side of the vertical telescopic arm 232. As shown Figure 4 As shown, one end of the vertical telescopic arm 232 close to the ground can be detachably connected to the threaded taper 233. A plurality of support units 23 can be arranged at intervals on both sides of the cargo compartment 31 along the driving direction of the dump vehicle. To solve the problem of how to improve the stability of the dump vehicle during unloading, the embodiment provides a dump vehicle control method. As shown Figure 1 As shown, the dump vehicle control method can include steps S10-S50, and each step is described in detail as follows:

[0051] Step S10, when the unloading instruction is triggered, at this time the cargo compartment 31 has not been jacked up, the horizontal data of the cargo compartment 31 of the dump vehicle in the static state can be obtained. By obtaining the horizontal data of the cargo compartment 31, it is convenient to judge the inclination state of the cargo compartment 31 and then perform subsequent operations.

[0052] Step S20, the first side can be one side of the cargo compartment 31 when the dump vehicle is driving, and the second side can be the other side parallel to the first side. The first height can be the height of the first set position of the first side of the cargo compartment 31 relative to the reference horizontal plane, and the second height can be the height of the second set position of the second side of the cargo compartment 31 relative to the reference horizontal plane. When the first height of the cargo compartment 31 is lower than the second height of the cargo compartment 31 and the difference between the first height and the second height is within a first set range, when the cargo compartment 31 is subsequently jacked up for unloading, the vehicle center of gravity will deviate and be prone to rollover due to the first height of the cargo compartment 31 being lower than the second height of the cargo compartment 31. At this time, the side telescopic arms 231 of the first side of the cargo compartment 31 and the side telescopic arms 231 of the second side of the cargo compartment 31 can be driven to extend away from the cargo compartment 31, which is convenient for controlling the subsequent operation of the vertical telescopic arm 232 of the first side and the threaded taper 233 of the second side to prevent the vehicle from rolling over. The first set position and the second set position can be symmetrically arranged along the center symmetry plane of the cargo compartment 31. In this way, the first height data and the second height data are more accurate when compared, and errors in comparing the size of the first height and the second height are avoided, and subsequent correct operations are performed to prevent the vehicle from being prone to rollover due to the jacking up of the cargo compartment 31 causing the center of gravity to be high.

[0053] Step S30, when the extension of the side telescopic arm 231 on the first side is completed, one end of the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the side telescopic arm 231 on the first side can be driven to abut against the ground. In this way, the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the first side increases the support point of the vehicle by contacting one end of the vertical telescopic arm 232 with the ground, thereby improving the stability of the vehicle. In this way, more stable support force can be provided to the first side of the cargo compartment 31 during unloading to avoid side overturning.

[0054] Step S40, when the extension of the side telescopic arm 231 on the second side is completed and one end of the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the first side abuts against the ground, the threaded cone 233 on the side telescopic arm 231 on the second side can be driven to rotate and penetrate into the ground to a set depth. The threaded cone 233 penetrating into the ground to a set depth can provide reliable grip to ensure that the vehicle will not overturn during unloading due to the center of gravity deviating to the first side. At the same time, driving the threaded cone 233 on the side telescopic arm 231 on the second side to rotate and penetrate into the ground to a set depth after abutting one end of the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the first side against the ground can also buffer the reaction force generated when the threaded cone 233 penetrates into the ground, avoiding the second height from being raised.

[0055] Step S50, when the threaded cone 233 rotates and penetrates into the ground to a set depth (for example, the set depth can be 0.3-0.6 meters), after penetrating to the set depth, the end of the cargo compartment 31 close to the vehicle head assembly 01 can be driven to move away from the vehicle beam assembly 02 to an angle between the cargo compartment 31 and the vehicle beam assembly 02 greater than or equal to a first set angle (for example, the first set angle can be 40°). In this way, the goods can smoothly slide out of the cargo compartment 31 under the action of gravity. The grip of the threaded cone 233 on the side telescopic arm 231 on the second side and the support force of the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the side telescopic arm 231 on the first side can effectively prevent the dump truck from overturning due to the center of gravity deviation during unloading, thereby improving the stability of the dump truck during unloading.

[0056] In some embodiments, step S50 can include steps S501-S504, which are described in detail as follows:

[0057] Step S501, when the threaded cone 233 rotates and penetrates into the ground to a set depth, the end of the cargo compartment 31 close to the vehicle head assembly 01 can be driven to move away from the vehicle beam assembly 02 to facilitate the end of the cargo compartment 31 close to the vehicle head assembly 01 to be raised, and the goods to smoothly slide out of the cargo compartment 31 under the action of gravity.

[0058] Step S502, when the end of the cargo compartment 31 close to the vehicle head assembly 01 moves away from the vehicle beam assembly 02, the real-time weight of the cargo compartment 31 in the unloading state can be obtained to facilitate subsequent operations by determining whether the goods in the cargo compartment 31 are timely slid out of the cargo compartment 31.

[0059] Step S503, when the change rate of the real-time weight is in the first change range, it indicates that the change rate of the real-time weight in the unloading state is not in the normal range, the weight of the unloaded cargo in the unloading state is less than the weight of the unloaded cargo in the normal case, at this time it indicates that the cargo in the cargo compartment 31 is sticky or stuck in the cargo compartment 31, the threaded rod 32 can be driven to rotate, so that the threaded rod 32 generates a thrust to push the sticky cargo out of the cargo compartment 31, avoiding the sticky or stuck cargo remaining in the cargo compartment 31, thereby avoiding the occurrence of a vehicle rollover accident and improving the unloading efficiency.

[0060] Step S504, when the threaded rod 32 rotates, the real-time weight is in the set weight range and the angle between the cargo compartment 31 and the vehicle beam assembly 02 is greater than or equal to the first set angle, thereby ensuring that the cargo in the cargo compartment 31 smoothly slides out and the vehicle will not rollover.

[0061] In some embodiments, the driving of the cargo compartment 31 to move close to one end of the vehicle head assembly 01 in the direction away from the vehicle beam assembly 02 in step S502 can be moving the cargo compartment 31 to an angle between the cargo compartment 31 and the vehicle beam assembly 02 greater than or equal to a second set angle. The second set angle can be greater than or equal to 1 / 2 of the first set angle and less than the first set angle. When the cargo compartment 31 moves to an angle between the cargo compartment 31 and the vehicle beam assembly 02 less than 1 / 2 of the first set angle, the cargo compartment 31 has too small an inclination angle, and the thrust of the threaded rod 32 driven to rotate cannot smoothly push the cargo in the cargo compartment 31 out. Therefore, the cargo compartment 31 can be moved to an angle between the cargo compartment 31 and the vehicle beam assembly 02 greater than or equal to the second set angle before the threaded rod 32 is driven to rotate to generate a thrust, which can make the sticky cargo smoothly slide out of the cargo compartment 31 under the action of its own gravity, thereby improving the unloading efficiency.

[0062] In some embodiments, step S503 can include:

[0063] Step S5031, when the change rate of the real-time weight is in the first change range, the first pressure on the first side and the second pressure on the second side can be obtained, and the subsequent comparison of the first pressure on the first side and the second pressure on the second side can be used to determine whether the cargo on the first side or the cargo on the second side is in a sticky state during the unloading process.

[0064] Step S5032, when the first pressure is greater than the second pressure, it indicates that the cargo on the first side is sticky in the cargo compartment 31 and cannot slide out in time, the threaded rod 32 adjacent to the first side can be driven to rotate to generate a thrust on the cargo on the first side, so that the cargo is smoothly pushed out of the cargo compartment 31 under the action of its own gravity, thereby improving the efficiency of the threaded rod 32 and the unloading efficiency, avoiding the inconsistency of the cargo on the first side and the cargo on the second side sliding out of the cargo compartment 31, avoiding the center of gravity of the cargo deviating when the cargo compartment 31 rises, and reducing the risk of a vehicle rollover accident.

[0065] In some embodiments, step S503 can further include:

[0066] Step S5033, when the threaded rod 32 adjacent to the first side is rotated and the rate of change of the real-time weight is within the second change range, at this time it indicates that the rotation of the threaded rod 32 on the first side is insufficient to loosen the goods on the first side of the warehouse 31, and the goods on the first side are still adhered to the warehouse 31. The first vibrator 331 of the vibration unit 33 can be started to vibrate the first side, thereby further loosening the tightly packed or adhered goods, ensuring clean unloading and improving unloading efficiency. The first vibrator 331 can be arranged adjacent to the first side. Through the vibration auxiliary action of the first vibrator 331, the goods on the first side are more uniform and smooth to slide out of the warehouse 31, avoiding the inconsistency of the goods sliding out of the first side and the second side, which causes the center of gravity of the warehouse 31 to deviate, and avoiding the dump truck from rolling over during unloading.

[0067] In some embodiments, step S40 can include:

[0068] Step S41, when the side telescopic arm 231 on the second side is extended and one end of the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the first side is in abutment with the ground, since the first height of the warehouse 31 is lower than the second height of the warehouse 31 and the difference between the first height and the second height is within the first set range, the end of the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the first side away from the ground is driven to extend to a set height in a direction away from the ground, so that the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the first side can increase the first height of the warehouse 31, facilitating leveling with the second height of the warehouse 31.

[0069] Step S42, when the end of the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the first side away from the ground is extended to a set height in a direction away from the ground, and the first height of the warehouse 31 is leveled with the second height of the warehouse 31, the threaded cone 233 on the side telescopic arm 231 on the second side is driven to rotate and penetrate into the ground to a set depth. When the threaded cone 233 rotates and penetrates into the ground to a set depth, the real-time horizontal plane of the warehouse 31 is parallel to the reference horizontal plane. The real-time horizontal plane can be the horizontal plane of the warehouse 31 perpendicular to the first side and the second side. In this way, after leveling the warehouse 31, the end of the warehouse 31 close to the vehicle head assembly 01 is driven to move away from the vehicle beam assembly 02 to an angle between the warehouse 31 and the vehicle beam assembly 02 greater than or equal to the first set angle, avoiding the deviation of the center of gravity caused by the inconsistency between the first height of the warehouse 31 and the second height of the warehouse 31 during unloading, and the grip of the threaded cone 233 on the side telescopic arm 231 on the second side can effectively prevent the vehicle from rolling over.

[0070] In some embodiments, step S50 can include steps S521-S525, which are described in detail as follows:

[0071] Step S521, when the threaded cone 233 is rotated into the ground to a set depth, the cargo compartment 31 can be driven to move away from the vehicle beam assembly 02 relative to the one end of the vehicle head assembly 01.

[0072] Step S522, when the cargo compartment 31 moves away from the vehicle beam assembly 02 relative to the one end of the vehicle head assembly 01, the first height and the second height in the unloading state can be obtained, which facilitates subsequent comparison of the first height and the second height in the unloading state to determine whether the cargo compartment 31 is tilted in the driving direction, thereby facilitating subsequent operation.

[0073] Step S523, when the first height is greater than the second height in the unloading state and the difference between the first height and the second height is within a second set range, it indicates that the center of gravity of the cargo compartment 31 is inclined to the second side and is prone to rollover, and the one end of the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the second side away from the ground can be driven to extend away from the ground. The support force provided by the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the second side to the second side of the cargo compartment 31 can effectively prevent the vehicle from rolling over.

[0074] Step S524, after the one end of the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the second side away from the ground extends away from the ground, the threaded cone 233 on the first side can be driven to rotate into the ground while keeping the cargo compartment 31 parallel to the reference horizontal plane. The ground gripping force of the threaded cone 233 on the first side rotating into the ground and the support force provided by the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the second side to the second side of the cargo compartment 31 act on the cargo compartment 31, so that when the first height and the second height of the cargo compartment 31 are equal, subsequent unloading can be prevented from rolling over.

[0075] Step S525, when the cargo compartment 31 is kept parallel to the reference horizontal plane, i.e., the first height and the second height of the cargo compartment 31 are equal, the cargo compartment 31 and the vehicle beam assembly 02 can be driven to have an included angle greater than or equal to a first set angle. At this time, the goods can slide out of the cargo compartment 31 under the influence of their own gravity without rolling over, which can improve the unloading stability of the vehicle.

[0076] In some embodiments, step S523 comprises:

[0077] Step S5231, when the first height is greater than the second height in the unloading state and the difference between the first height and the second height is within a second set range, the threaded rod 32 adjacent to the second side can be driven to rotate. By driving the rotation of the threaded rod 32 adjacent to the second side, the adhered goods can be loosened so that the goods on the second side are unloaded as soon as possible to reduce the weight of the goods on the second side, which facilitates subsequent driving of the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the second side to provide support and quickly raise the second height of the cargo compartment 31, thereby improving the unloading efficiency and unloading safety.

[0078] In step S5232, when the threaded rod 32 adjacent to the second side rotates, it can drive the end of the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the second side away from the ground to extend in a direction away from the ground. As a result, the supporting force provided by the vertical telescopic arm 232 on the second side can raise the second height of the cargo compartment 31 as soon as possible, so that the first height and the second height are equal. This prevents the cargo compartment 31 from tipping over during unloading, thereby improving the stability of the dump truck when unloading.
