[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0027] In the field of vehicle engineering, especially in the design and use of hooklift trucks, hook boom positioning is a crucial aspect. Hooklift trucks are a common type of loading and unloading equipment; their main function is to load or unload goods to designated locations via the extension, retraction, and rotation of the hook boom.
[0028] In practice, the positioning of the hook arm usually needs to be done manually, which is not only inefficient, but also makes it difficult to guarantee positioning accuracy.
[0029] Based on this, the present invention provides a control method for the hook arm of a hooklift truck, which can adjust the height of the hook arm according to a height adjustment strategy, so that the front hook arm of the adjusted hook arm can engage with the hook ring of the target box. This reduces the operating difficulty of the hook arm and improves its working efficiency.
[0030] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, a control method for the hook arm of a hooklift truck disclosed in this embodiment of the invention will be described in detail first.
[0031] Example 1
[0032] This invention provides a control method for the hook arm of a hooklift truck. Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a control method for the hook arm of a hooklift truck, provided as an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the control method for the hook arm of this hooklift truck may include the following steps:
[0033] Step S101: Determine the angular deviation between the hook arm equipment and the target box based on the distance parameters between the hook arm equipment and the target box.
[0034] It should be noted that the angle deviation is used to characterize the angle deviation between the front hook arm of the hook boom equipment and the target box's body hook. Therefore, when it is necessary to determine the angle deviation between the hook boom equipment and the target box, it is necessary to pre-determine the required angle for the front hook arm of the hook boom equipment to hook the target box's body hook and the current angle corresponding to the front hook arm of the hook boom equipment. Then, based on the required angle and the current angle, the angle deviation between the hook boom equipment and the target box can be determined.
[0035] Specifically, when it is necessary to determine the angular deviation between the hook boom and the target box, the following can be included: based on the distance parameters between the hook boom and the target box, determine the required angle for the front hook arm of the hook boom to hook into the box hook of the target box; obtain the current angle corresponding to the front hook arm of the hook boom; and determine the angular deviation between the hook boom and the target box based on the required angle and the current angle.
[0036] Step S102: Determine the height adjustment strategy for the hook arm equipment based on the angle deviation.
[0037] It should be noted that angular deviation can include deviation type and angular deviation amount. Specifically, deviation type can include the first deviation type where the required angle is less than the current angle, and the second deviation type where the required angle is greater than the current angle.
[0038] Therefore, after determining the type and amount of the angular deviation, the raising and lowering strategy of the hook boom for the hook boom equipment is determined according to the deviation type, and the height adjustment amount is determined according to the angular deviation amount; then, the raising and lowering strategy and the height adjustment amount are used as the height adjustment strategy for the hook boom equipment.
[0039] Step S103: Adjust the height of the hook arm device according to the height adjustment strategy so that the front hook arm of the adjusted hook arm device is connected to the target box's hook ring.
[0040] It should be noted that since the height adjustment strategy includes a raising and lowering strategy and a height adjustment amount, the preset position of the front hook arm of the hook arm equipment can be determined based on the raising and lowering strategy and the height adjustment amount. This preset position is used to characterize that the front hook arm of the hook arm equipment can accurately hook the target box's hook ring at this position.
[0041] Therefore, when adjusting the height of the hook boom device according to the height adjustment strategy, the front hook arm of the hook boom device is adjusted to the preset position corresponding to the height adjustment strategy, so that the front hook arm of the adjusted hook boom device can hook the target box's hook ring.
[0042] In one embodiment of this application, when the ramp sensor is not malfunctioning, it can detect in real time whether the current angle is equal to the required angle; if the two are the same, it is determined that the front hook arm of the hook arm device has reached the preset position, and at this time the adjusted front hook arm of the hook arm device can hook the target box body hook ring.
[0043] In another embodiment of this application, when the ramp sensor malfunctions, a position switch can be set. The position switch is used to determine whether the front hook arm of the hook arm device has reached the preset position. If so, it is determined that the front hook arm of the hook arm device after adjustment can hook the target box's hook ring.
[0044] Furthermore, after the hook boom is adjusted to the preset position according to the height adjustment strategy, a prohibition command is sent to the hook boom to prevent the hook boom from making height adjustments at the preset position.
[0045] This invention provides a control method for the hook arm of a hooklift truck. Based on the distance parameter between the hook arm and the target container, the angular deviation between the hook arm and the target container is determined. Then, based on the angular deviation, a height adjustment strategy for the hook arm is determined. Subsequently, the height of the hook arm is adjusted according to the height adjustment strategy so that the front hook arm of the adjusted hook arm engages with the container hook of the target container. As can be seen from the above, this application obtains the angular deviation to reflect the positional relationship between the hook arm and the target container. This ensures that the height adjustment strategy determined based on the angular deviation is suitable for the hook arm's situation. Furthermore, after adjusting the height of the hook arm according to the height adjustment strategy, the front hook arm of the hook arm can effectively engage with the container hook of the target container, reducing the operational difficulty of the hook arm, improving its working efficiency, reducing the complexity of controlling the hook arm, preventing unreasonable contact and collision between the hook arm and the target container, and ensuring that the service life of the hook arm and the target container is not affected during the engagement process.
[0046] Example 2
[0047] This invention also provides another control method for the hook arm of a hook arm truck; this method is implemented based on the method in the above embodiments; the method focuses on describing the specific implementation of determining the angular deviation between the hook arm equipment and the target box based on the distance parameter between the hook arm equipment and the target box.
[0048] Figure 2 A flowchart of another control method for the hook boom of a hook boom truck provided in an embodiment of the present invention is shown below. Figure 2 As shown, determining the angular deviation between the hook boom and the target container based on the distance parameter between them can include the following steps:
[0049] S201, Based on the distance parameters between the hook arm equipment and the target box, determine the required angle for the front hook arm of the hook arm equipment to hook the box hook of the target box.
[0050] It should be noted that when determining the required angle for the front hook arm of the hook arm to hook onto the target container's hook ring based on the distance parameters between the hook arm and the target container, the following can be included: determining the required height for the front hook arm of the hook arm to hook onto the target container's hook ring based on the distance parameters between the hook arm and the target container; and determining the required angle based on the required height for the front hook arm of the hook arm to hook onto the target container's hook ring.
[0051] In one embodiment of this application, Figure 3 This invention provides a motion diagram of a hook arm mechanism. After determining the required height for the front hook arm of the hook arm device to hook the target box's hook ring, as shown in the diagram... Figure 3 As shown, based on the required height and the positions of various points in the hook arm equipment and the interrelationships of hinges and kinematic pairs, the calculation formula corresponding to the required angle can be derived through function derivation. Then, the required angle can be determined based on the calculation formula of the required angle.
[0052] The calculation formula corresponding to the demand perspective is shown below:
[0053]
[0054] Where θ refers to the required angle; YB refers to the height of the front hook head of the hook boom relative to the hook boom chassis; A refers to the L-arm length of the hook boom; and R refers to a set constant. L refers to the length of the main boom of the hooklift equipment.
[0055] S202, Obtain the current angle corresponding to the front hook arm of the hook arm device.
[0056] It should be noted that when it is necessary to obtain the current angle of the front hook arm of the hook boom device, the following can be included: triggering the ramp sensor corresponding to the hook boom device; and using the current slope detected by the ramp sensor as the current angle of the front hook arm of the hook boom device.
[0057] S203, determine the angular deviation between the hook boom equipment and the target box based on the required angle and the current angle.
[0058] It should be noted that angular deviation can include deviation type and angular deviation amount. Furthermore, deviation type can include a first deviation type where the required angle is less than the current angle, and a second deviation type where the required angle is greater than the current angle.
[0059] Therefore, in determining the angular deviation between the hook boom equipment and the target box, it is necessary to determine the type of deviation based on the relationship between the required angle and the current angle; and to determine the amount of angular deviation based on the angular difference between the required angle and the current angle.
[0060] This invention provides a control method for the hook arm of a hooklift truck. By determining the required angle for the front hook arm of the hooklift truck to hook the target box, and the current angle of the front hook arm, the method determines the angular deviation between the hooklift truck and the target box based on the required angle and the current angle. This provides a data foundation for determining the height adjustment strategy, reduces the operational difficulty of the hooklift truck, improves its working efficiency, and reduces the complexity of controlling the hooklift truck.
[0061] Example 3
[0062] This invention also provides another method for controlling the hook arm of a hooklift truck; this method is implemented based on the method in the above embodiments; the method focuses on describing the specific implementation of determining the height adjustment strategy for the hook arm equipment based on the angle deviation.
[0063] Figure 4 A flowchart illustrating another control method for the hook arm of a hooklift truck provided in an embodiment of the present invention is shown below. Figure 4 As shown, determining the height adjustment strategy for the hook boom equipment based on the angle deviation may include the following steps:
[0064] S401, if the required angle is less than the current angle, the height adjustment strategy is determined to be to lower the main boom of the hook boom equipment according to the height adjustment amount.
[0065] It should be noted that if the required angle is less than the current angle, the main boom needs to send a main boom descent command to the upper structure controller. The upper structure controller then controls the corresponding valve body to open and starts the motor, causing the main boom to descend, thus realizing the operation of lowering the hook boom main boom of the hook boom equipment.
[0066] S402, if the required angle is greater than the current angle, the height adjustment strategy is determined to be to raise the main boom of the hook boom equipment according to the height adjustment amount.
[0067] It should be noted that when the required angle is greater than the current angle, the main boom needs to send a main boom raising command to the upper structure controller. The upper structure controller then controls the corresponding valve body to open and starts the motor, causing the main boom to rise and thus realizing the operation of raising the hook boom main boom of the hook boom equipment.
[0068] The height adjustment amount is determined based on the angle deviation.
[0069] Specifically, the process of determining the height adjustment amount includes: determining the height adjustment amount based on the preset mapping relationship between candidate adjustment amounts and candidate deviations and the angle deviation.
[0070] This invention provides a control method for the hook arm of a hook-lift truck. Based on the angle deviation, a height adjustment strategy for the hook arm equipment is determined, providing a basis for subsequent height adjustment of the hook arm equipment and ensuring that the front hook arm of the hook arm of the completed hook arm equipment is connected to the target box's hook ring.
[0071] Example 4
[0072] Corresponding to the above method embodiments, this invention provides a control device for the hook arm of a hooklift truck. Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a control device for the hook arm of a hooklift truck provided in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 5 As shown, the control device for the hook arm of the hooklift truck may include:
[0073] The first determining module 401 is used to determine the angular deviation between the hook arm equipment and the target box based on the distance parameter between the hook arm equipment and the target box.
[0074] The second determining module 402 is used to determine the height adjustment strategy for the hook arm equipment based on the angle deviation.
[0075] The adjustment module 403 is used to adjust the height of the hook arm device according to the height adjustment strategy so that the front hook arm of the adjusted hook arm device can hook the target box body hook ring.
[0076] The hook arm control device provided in this embodiment of the invention determines the angular deviation between the hook arm and the target box based on the distance parameter between them, and determines a height adjustment strategy for the hook arm based on the angular deviation. Then, the hook arm is height-adjusted according to the height adjustment strategy so that the front hook arm of the adjusted hook arm engages with the box hook of the target box. As can be seen from the above, this application obtains the angular deviation to reflect the positional relationship between the hook arm and the target box. This ensures that the height adjustment strategy, determined based on the angular deviation, is suitable for the hook arm's condition. Furthermore, after height adjustment, the front hook arm effectively engages with the box hook, reducing the operational difficulty of the hook arm, improving its working efficiency, reducing the complexity of controlling the hook arm, preventing unreasonable contact and collision between the hook arm and the target box, and ensuring that the service life of both the hook arm and the target box is not affected during the engagement process.
[0077] In some embodiments, the first determining module is further configured to determine the required angle for the front hook arm of the hook arm device to hook the hook ring of the target box according to the distance parameter between the hook arm device and the target box; obtain the current angle corresponding to the front hook arm of the hook arm device; and determine the angle deviation between the hook arm device and the target box according to the required angle and the current angle.
[0078] In some embodiments, the second determining module is further configured to determine the required height for the front hook arm of the hook arm device to hook the hook ring of the target box based on the distance parameter between the hook arm device and the target box; and to determine the required angle based on the required height for the front hook arm of the hook arm device to hook the hook ring of the target box.
[0079] In some embodiments, the first determining module is further configured to trigger the ramp sensor corresponding to the hook arm device; and use the current slope detected by the ramp sensor as the current angle corresponding to the front hook arm of the hook arm device.
[0080] In some embodiments, the adjustment module is further configured to determine, when the required angle is less than the current angle, a height adjustment strategy of lowering the main boom of the hook boom device according to the height adjustment amount; and when the required angle is greater than the current angle, a height adjustment strategy of raising the main boom of the hook boom device according to the height adjustment amount; wherein the height adjustment amount is determined based on the angle deviation.
[0081] In some embodiments, the second determining module is further configured to determine the height adjustment amount based on the preset mapping relationship between candidate adjustment amount and candidate deviation and the angle deviation.
[0082] In some embodiments, the adjustment module is further configured to send a prohibition command to the hook arm device after the hook arm device has been adjusted to a preset position according to the height adjustment strategy, so as to prohibit the hook arm device from making height adjustments at the preset position.
