AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Traditional back-turning dumping vehicles cannot monitor the dumping of goods during the unloading process, causing the vehicle to fall back and overturn, posing a major safety hazard.

Method used

An automatic prevention system was designed to collect the front axle load data by installing pressure sensors at the front axle of the car and feed it back to the PLC controller. When the load weight decreases to the preset threshold, the PLC controller sends a signal, cuts off the switch, and the solenoid valve switches the oil circuit, controls the lifting mechanism to make the cargo chamber fall back, adjusts the center of gravity position, and prevents the whole vehicle from turning back.

Benefits of technology

It effectively prevents safety hazards caused by dumping vehicles due to backward overturning during unloading, and ensures the stability and safety of the vehicle.

Abstract

The invention discloses an anti-tip-back system of a dumper. The anti-tip-back system of the dumper comprises a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), the pressure sensor is mounted on a front axle of the dumper; the direction control valve is mounted in the middle of an oil path pipeline of the hydraulic pump and the hydraulic actuating mechanism, and is also connected with the PLC through a switch; the hydraulic pump is connected with the hydraulic oil tank through a hydraulic oil pipe; the indicating lamp is installed on a cab instrument desk and connected with the PLC. The pressure sensor collects pressure data of a front axle, the PLC processes the data collected by the pressure sensor, when the data is gradually reduced and reaches a preset threshold value, it is judged that a vehicle head is about to be lifted away from the ground at the moment, the whole vehicle tilts backwards, and before the vehicle head is lifted away from the critical point of the ground, the PLC sends out a signal to cut off the switch and controls the lifting mechanism to make the cargo compartment fall back. The center-of-gravity position is adjusted to prevent the whole vehicle from turning backwards

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of automobile technology, and in particular to an automatic prevention system including a control method for preventing rear-end dump vehicles including commercial vehicles and agricultural vehicles from tipping over and causing accidents during unloading. Background Art

[0002] When unloading cargo, traditional rear-tilt dump vehicles are unable to monitor the cargo tipping situation. When the cargo is stuck in the cargo compartment and the cargo compartment tilts backwards, the center of gravity of the cargo moves backwards. The frame and body of the vehicle will flip backwards with the rear wheels as the fulcrum under the action of the gravity of the cargo. The front of the vehicle may be lifted, and the vehicle may tip over, posing a major safety hazard. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a dump truck anti-rollover system. The system can collect front axle load data and feed it back to a PLC controller through a pressure sensor installed on the front axle of the vehicle according to the change of the front axle load of the dump truck when unloading. The PLC controller processes the collected data. When the data gradually decreases to a preset threshold, it is determined that the front of the vehicle is about to be lifted off the ground and the whole vehicle will tilt backward. Before the critical point of the front of the vehicle being lifted off the ground, the PLC controller sends a signal to cut off the switch, the solenoid valve switches the oil circuit, and the lifting mechanism is controlled to make the cargo compartment fall back, and the center of gravity position is adjusted to prevent the whole vehicle from rolling over.

[0004] The PLC controller adopts Arduino Nano controller.

[0005] The pressure sensor adopts HBM C16 column sensor, which is installed at the connection between the front axle and the steering knuckle and has good corrosion resistance.

[0006] The switch adopts a 5V DC relay.

[0007] The solenoid valve is a 24V single-control solenoid valve. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0013] The embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0014] See also Figure 1 , 2 , 3, 4, the dump truck anti-rollover system of the present invention includes a pressure sensor 1 installed at the connection between the front axle 11 and the steering knuckle 9; the directional control valve 4 is installed in the oil circuit system of the hydraulic pump 7 and the hydraulic actuator 6; the indicator light 5 is installed on the dashboard of the cab; during unloading, that is, the cargo compartment rolls over, the pressure sensor collects the front axle load and transmits these pressure data through the signal line to the PLC control unit 2. As the cargo compartment rolls over, the spring pressure on the front axle will gradually decrease. The PLC control unit 2 compares the pressure data collected by the sensor with the preset pressure threshold. When the pressure data is equal to the threshold, the indicator light 5 flashes to alarm, and at the same time, the PLC control unit 2 sends a signal to the switch 3, the directional control valve 4 switches the oil circuit, and the hydraulic oil flows back to the hydraulic oil tank 8, and the cargo compartment descends under the action of its own weight and external force.
