[0008] Optionally, the angle between the lifting uprights 8 and the bottom support plate 1 is not 90°.

[0009] Optionally, a gyroscope and an accelerometer are provided in the bottom support plate 1, and a human body proximity sensor is provided on the front of the golf cart 9, and the gyroscope, accelerometer and human body proximity sensor are all electrically connected to the main controller.

It is difficult to adapt to different terrain changes, the height cannot be automatically adjusted, and it is easy to lose balance and fall on slopes or bumpy roads. At the same time, it is inconvenient for users to take and put away golf clubs.

[0029] Example 1

A mutually cooperating rotation limiting mechanism is provided between the upper movable rod 16 and the lower guide column 12, and the rotation limiting mechanism is used to prevent the upper movable rod 16 from rotating with the lifting screw 15.

[0037] It should be noted that the type of lifting mechanism of the lifting rod 8 in this solution can be changed according to actual needs.

[0042] Example 2

[0043] Reference Figure 1-Figure 7 , which is a second embodiment of the present invention, provides a method for controlling an intelligent lifting golf bag cart. The method for controlling an intelligent lifting golf bag cart may include the following steps:

[0044] Step S110: driving the golf bag cart to move.

[0045] Step S121: When the accelerometer of the golf bag vehicle detects that the instantaneous acceleration in the first direction exceeds the first acceleration threshold range for multiple consecutive times (e.g., 4 times within 300ms), the protection mechanism will be triggered to gradually lower the maximum allowable speed. During this process, if the current speed is already lower than the maximum allowable speed, the current speed will be maintained to ensure the continuity of the golf bag vehicle's following. Otherwise, the golf bag vehicle will perform a smooth deceleration.

[0046] Step S122: After deceleration, when the accelerometer of the golf bag vehicle detects that the instantaneous acceleration in the first direction is within the first acceleration threshold range for multiple consecutive times, the maximum allowable speed is increased, and the golf bag vehicle accelerates, first accelerating to the maximum allowable speed, and automatically returning to the following speed after reaching the set safety distance.

[0047] Preferably, speed compensation is performed through a dual judgment logic: based on the user distance data fed back by the real-time distance measuring device, if it exceeds the set safe following threshold, the speed is temporarily increased to the maximum allowable speed for rapid catching up, and automatically returns to the following speed after the safe distance is restored; if the normal following distance is maintained, the user's pace is matched through gradual acceleration.

[0048] It should be noted that the instantaneous acceleration in the first direction refers to the instantaneous acceleration in the vertical direction of the golf bag vehicle. When the golf bag vehicle is traveling on an uneven road, that is, in a bumpy state, the vertical acceleration will fluctuate violently; in this case, the vertical acceleration will exhibit a pulse characteristic.

[0049] Furthermore, when a bump is detected, the front-wheel drive motor slows down to gain response time for lift compensation. Reducing the speed can also reduce the impact of the bump on the golf club and reduce the risk of the golf club falling due to the bump. After the bump is detected to have ended, the speed is gradually restored.

[0050] Specifically, when the human proximity sensor of the golf bag cart detects that there is no proximity signal within a set range and the golf bag cart is moving: the fixed angle of the golf bag is calculated, and a first angle threshold and a second angle threshold are set, the first angle threshold is less than the second angle threshold; when the fixed angle of the golf bag is less than the first angle threshold, or the fixed angle of the golf bag is greater than the second angle threshold, the lifting pole performs height adjustment, and after the height adjustment is completed, the fixed angle of the golf bag is calculated again until the fixed angle of the golf bag is greater than or equal to the first angle threshold and less than or equal to the second angle threshold; while the lifting pole performs height adjustment, the front wheel drive motor synchronously performs dynamic torque compensation control according to the real-time pitch angle signal detected by the gyroscope.

[0051] The golf bag fixing angle refers to the angle between the line connecting the center points of the first golf bag fixing part and the second golf bag fixing part (there may be a slight difference depending on the specific mechanical mechanism design) and the bottom support plate after the golf bag cart is unfolded.

[0052] It should be noted that when a golf bag is on a golf bag cart, the top is usually open. When the golf bag cart is moving, especially downhill, the golf clubs may fall out of the top opening of the golf bag. Therefore, the lifting pole needs to be adjusted according to the fixed angle of the golf bag to prevent the golf clubs from falling from the top of the golf bag.

[0053] Furthermore, the calculation formula for the fixed angle of the ball bag is as follows:

[0054]

[0055] Among them, γ represents the bag fixing angle, h represents the current pole length, x represents the distance between the center point of the first bag fixing part and the center point of the second bag fixing part, and β represents the inclination angle between the bottom support plate and the horizontal plane, which is measured by the gyroscope.

[0056] For example, the fixed angle of the golf bag is calculated once every 0.5 seconds. When the fixed angle of the golf bag is less than the first angle threshold, such as 30°, the lifting pole is raised one unit, such as 1 cm, and the fixed angle of the golf bag is calculated again. If it is still less than the first angle threshold, the lifting pole is raised one unit again until the fixed angle of the golf bag is greater than or equal to the first angle threshold and less than or equal to the second angle threshold.

[0057] Similarly, when the fixed angle of the golf bag is greater than the second angle threshold, such as 60°, the lifting pole will be lowered one unit at a time until the fixed angle of the golf bag is greater than or equal to the first angle threshold and less than or equal to the second angle threshold. When the lifting pole has been lowered to the lowest position, it will remain stationary.

[0058] Through the above adjustment, it can be ensured that the golf clubs in the golf bag will not fall when going uphill or downhill.

[0059] Furthermore, while the lifting pole performs height adjustment in response to the calculated fixed angle of the ball bag, the front wheel drive motor synchronously performs dynamic torque compensation control according to the real-time pitch angle signal detected by the gyroscope.

[0060] When going uphill, the pitch angle is greater than 0, the positive pressure on the front wheels decreases, it is easy to slip, and the torque needs to be increased. When going downhill, the pitch angle is less than 0, the positive pressure on the front wheels increases, and the torque needs to be reduced to avoid acceleration out of control.

[0061] Furthermore, when the lifting pole is raised, the center of gravity of the entire golf bag vehicle moves backward, the positive pressure on the front wheel decreases, and the torque needs to be reduced. When the lifting pole is lowered, the center of gravity of the entire golf bag vehicle moves forward, the positive pressure on the front wheel increases, and the torque should be increased.

[0062] Based on the above two points, the target torque calculation formula of the front wheel drive motor is as follows:

[0063] T=T0+KT α+K H ·Δh

[0064] Where T represents the target torque of the front wheel drive motor, T0 represents the reference torque on a flat road, K T represents the pitch angle torque compensation coefficient, α represents the real-time pitch angle detected by the gyroscope (negative value when going downhill and positive value when going uphill), K H Indicates the lifting height torque compensation coefficient, Δh indicates the vertical lifting displacement of the lifting pole; K H and K T All settings are made through actual experiments.

[0065] Furthermore, the control method of the intelligent lifting golf bag cart also includes: when it is detected that the golf bag cart is in a moving state, first controlling the lifting pole to be lowered to the lowest position; when it is detected that the golf bag cart stops moving, and the human proximity sensor (Human Proximity Sensor is an electronic device that can detect the approach or distance of a human body or biological body within a set range. It uses non-contact sensing technology, such as electromagnetic field, infrared radiation, ultrasonic wave, capacitance change, etc., to monitor the target area in real time. When a human body enters or leaves the detection range, the sensor outputs an electrical signal, triggering the associated mechanism to execute the preset control logic) of the golf bag cart detects a proximity signal within the set range indicating that a person is approaching, controlling the lifting pole to be raised to a set height; when it is detected that the golf bag cart stops moving, and the human proximity sensor of the golf bag cart detects a proximity signal within the set range indicating that a person is moving away, controlling the lifting pole to be lowered to the lowest position.

[0066] Furthermore, when the human proximity sensor detects that a person suddenly approaches, the golf bag car first performs an emergency stop and then performs lifting.

[0067] It should be noted that when the golf cart detects a person approaching, the main controller controls the lifting pole to rise to a set height. This height is the optimal height for club retrieval and placement, as determined by the golf cart owner's height. Adjustment of the lifting pole facilitates club retrieval and placement. When the golf cart stops moving and the human proximity sensor detects a proximity signal within a set range, indicating a person has moved away, the lifting pole is controlled to descend to its lowest position. At this point, the golf cart's center of gravity is at its lowest, making it ideal for emergency stops and moves and achieving maximum stability.

[0068] Furthermore, when the golf bag cart is detected to be stationary and the proximity sensor of the golf bag cart detects no proximity signal within a set range, the lifting rods are controlled to adjust according to the calculated bag fixing angle. In this case, when the golf bag cart is stationary and tilted forward or backward, the lifting rods are adjusted according to the calculated bag fixing angle to prevent the clubs from falling out of the golf bag. When the golf bag cart is detected to be moving and the proximity sensor of the golf bag cart detects no proximity signal within a set range, the lifting rods are controlled to first adjust according to the calculated bag fixing angle, that is, first adjust according to the current forward or backward tilt of the golf bag cart, to ensure that the clubs do not fall out.

[0069] Preferably, adjusting the height of the lifting pole will change the center of gravity of the vehicle, which in turn affects the pitch angle, forming a feedback loop. For example, raising the lifting pole when going downhill may cause the center of gravity to move backward, increasing the pitch angle. Closed-loop control can be introduced to monitor the pitch angle changes in real time and dynamically adjust the lifting height, for example, using a PID algorithm for control to achieve the right control effect.

[0070] Example 3

[0071] Reference Figures 1-8 , which is the third embodiment of the present invention, is improved on the basis of embodiment 1. This embodiment provides a golf bag cart, including: a bottom support plate 1, wherein the bottom support plate 1 is equipped with a main controller, the bottom support plate 1 is respectively connected to one end of two front wheel folding parts 2, the other end of the front wheel folding parts 2 is fixedly connected to a front wheel drive motor 3, the front wheel drive motor 3 is electrically connected to the golf bag cart front wheel 4, the golf bag cart front wheel 4 is rotatably connected to the front wheel folding part 2, the bottom support plate 1 is hinged to a rear wheel mounting part 5, and the rear wheel mounting part 5 is rotatably connected to two golf bag cart rear wheels 6.

[0072] Preferably, Figure 8 As shown, unlike the golf bag cart of Example 1, the rear wheels 6 of this embodiment are not driven wheels as in Example 1. Instead, they are connected to independent rear-wheel drive motors. Front-wheel drive vehicles can easily slip when climbing hills due to the rearward shift in the center of gravity. The addition of rear-wheel drive motors provides additional traction, ensuring balanced grip on all four wheels.

[0073] Furthermore, when the golf cart goes uphill, the rear wheel drive motor increases torque to prevent the front wheel 4 from lifting. When the lifting pole is raised and the center of gravity moves backward, the rear wheel motor automatically increases torque to compensate for the loss of traction and prevent the front wheel from spinning.

[0074] Preferably, on flat roads, only the front wheels 4 of the golf cart are driven, and when the terrain is complex, four-wheel drive is switched. The front and rear wheel torques are dynamically distributed according to the center of gravity position (judged by the lifting height), and differential control can also be introduced to prevent four-wheel slip.

[0075] Preferably, adding a rear wheel motor enables the golf bag car to adapt to more scenarios, such as multi-slope golf courses, rainy and snowy slippery venues and other high-demand environments.

[0076] Furthermore, the angle between the lifting rod 8 and the bottom support plate 1 is not 90°.

A rotation limiting mechanism that cooperates with each other is provided between the upper moving rod 16 and the lower guide column 12, and the rotation limiting mechanism is used to prevent the upper moving rod 16 from rotating with the lifting screw rod 15.

[0078] Furthermore, the bottom support plate 1 is connected to the guide mechanism 18, the central axis of the guide mechanism 18 is parallel to the central axis of the bottom support plate 1, the guide mechanism 18 is respectively connected to the two front wheel folding parts 2, and the two front wheel folding parts 2 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the guide mechanism 18, the first ball bag fixing part 7 is rotatably connected to the rear wheel mounting part 5, and the second ball bag fixing part 11 is rotatably connected to the front of the ball bag cart 9.
