Description

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of them. Usually, the components of the embodiments of the present application described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the present application to be protected, but only represents the selected embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, every other embodiment obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts belongs to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0032] It should be noted that before the present application was proposed, with the rapid development of agricultural mechanization, the requirements for the intelligence and automation levels of equipment have been increasing day by day. As a key equipment in agricultural production, how to reduce the grain loss rate of a grain harvester and improve the working efficiency of the equipment has become an important research direction for the intelligence and automation of harvesters. For this reason, it is necessary to achieve stable control of the feeding amount in the grain harvester. At present, the stable control method of the feeding amount is usually realized based on an adaptive adjustment link between the feeding amount and the operating speed. The adaptive adjustment link needs to use a prediction model to estimate the feeding amount, and then calculate the speed deviation by using the estimated feeding amount and the driving speed of the grain harvester collected by the sensor, so as to achieve adaptive adjustment. However, the estimation result of the feeding amount is affected by the accuracy of the prediction model. When the accuracy of the prediction model is insufficient, it is easy to reduce the matching accuracy between the feeding amount of the grain harvester and the driving speed. At the same time, the operating environment and grain type of the grain harvester will both affect the operating process of the grain harvester. Simply making an adaptive adjustment based on the feeding amount and the driving speed of the grain harvester cannot achieve the precise matching between the feeding amount and the driving speed of the grain harvester.

[0033] Based on this, the embodiment of the present application provides a control method for a grain harvester to improve the precise matching between the feeding amount and the driving speed of the grain harvester.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 which is a flowchart of a control method for a grain harvester provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 1 shown, the control method for a grain harvester provided by the embodiment of the present application includes:

[0035] Step S101, determining the current feeding amount of the grain by using a displacement sensor arranged on the cross-bridge device, and determining the current torque of the threshing cylinder in the grain harvester;

[0036] Step S102, constructing a reference torque decision model based on the corresponding relationship between the feeding amount and the torque;

[0037] Step S103, using the reference torque decision model to determine the reference torque range under the current feeding amount of the grain and the grain parameters of the fed grain;

[0038] Step S104, comparing the current torque with the reference torque range, and controlling the driving speed of the grain harvester according to the torque comparison result.

[0039] The grain harvester control method provided by the embodiments of the present application can directly determine the current feeding amount of grains through a displacement sensor, improving the calculation accuracy of the feeding amount and avoiding the problem of the decreased matching accuracy between the feeding amount and the traveling speed of the grain harvester due to the inaccurate feeding amount prediction model. At the same time, it can determine the reference torque range based on the current feeding amount of grains and the grain parameters, taking the grain characteristic parameters into consideration in the control process of the grain harvester, further improving the matching accuracy between the feeding amount and the traveling speed of the grain harvester, and solving the problem of low matching accuracy between the feeding amount and the traveling speed of the grain harvester.

[0040] For the convenience of understanding this embodiment, the following takes the application of the grain harvester control method to the vehicle-mounted controller of the grain harvester as an example to separately describe the above exemplary steps provided by the embodiments of the present application.

[0041] In step S101, a displacement sensor provided on the cross-bridge device is used to determine the current feeding amount of grains, and the current torque of the threshing cylinder in the grain harvester is determined.

[0042] In this step, a plurality of sensors are provided on the grain harvester to obtain a plurality of operating parameters of the grain harvester by using these sensors.

[0043] A displacement sensor is provided on the side of the front axle of the cross-bridge device of the grain harvester. The displacement sensor is used to collect the thickness value of the cross-bridge feeding layer in real time, and the current feeding amount of grains is determined based on the thickness value of the cross-bridge feeding layer. Among them, the displacement sensor may refer to a KTC pull-rod type displacement sensor. The current feeding amount of grains can be calculated based on the thickness value of the cross-bridge feeding layer collected by the KTC pull-rod type displacement sensor and the volume of the cross-bridge device.

[0044] Here, the current torque of the threshing cylinder in the grain harvester can be obtained through at least one of the following methods.

[0045] One method is that a tension sensor is provided at the belt of the grain harvester to collect the tension of the belt in real time by using the tension sensor. At the same time, since the torque is generated by the difference in tension on both sides of the belt, a proportional relationship model between the belt tension and the torque can be constructed, and the current tensions on both sides of the belt are collected by using the tension sensor, and the collected current tensions are input into the proportional relationship model to obtain the current torque. Among them, the torque is positively correlated with the tension difference. The larger the tension difference, the larger the torque; the smaller the tension difference, the smaller the torque.

[0046] Another method is to install a torque sensor at the end of the threshing cylinder shaft of the grain harvester, and the torque sensor is used to collect the current torque of the threshing cylinder in real time.

[0047] In step S102, a reference torque decision model is constructed based on the corresponding relationship between the feeding amount and the torque.

[0048] In this step, the reference torque decision model is used to determine the reference torque range, so as to control the traveling speed of the grain harvester by using the reference torque range.

[0049] In addition, the construction of the reference torque decision model also requires grain parameters, which are parameters used to characterize the characteristics of grains. As an example, the grain references include but are not limited to: grain humidity and grain type.

[0050] A humidity sensor is also provided on the grain harvester, and the grain humidity of the grains fed into the grain harvester is collected through the humidity sensor. The grain type can be determined by an image recognition method, or directly input into the vehicle-mounted controller.

[0051] Next, with reference to Figure 2 the construction process of the reference torque decision model will be introduced.

[0052] Figure 2 shows a flowchart of the method for constructing the reference torque decision model provided by the embodiment of the present application. As Figure 2 shown, the method for constructing the reference torque decision model includes:

[0053] Step S1021: Construct a relationship model between the feeding amount and the pressure of the threshing cylinder hydraulic clutch, and correct the relationship model by using the grain parameters to obtain a corrected relationship model.

[0054] Here, since the pressure of the threshing cylinder hydraulic clutch in the grain harvester increases monotonically when the feeding amount increases, an experimental method can be used to establish the relationship equation between the two, so as to construct the relationship model between the feeding amount and the pressure of the threshing cylinder hydraulic clutch.

[0055] At the same time, since the grain parameters will have a certain impact on the change of the pressure of the threshing cylinder hydraulic clutch. For example, when the grain humidity reaches the set interval, the pressure of the threshing cylinder hydraulic clutch will increase, and different grain types (such as millet, soybean) have different degrees of influence on the pressure change. Therefore, the grain parameters can be used to correct the relationship model between the feeding amount and the pressure of the threshing cylinder hydraulic clutch to obtain a corrected relationship model.

[0056] For example: divide the grain humidity into multiple grain humidity intervals. According to the experimental results, the interval relationship model corresponding to each grain humidity interval can be constructed. At the same time, each grain type corresponds to a correction coefficient, and this correction coefficient is added to each interval relationship model to obtain a corrected relationship model.

[0057] In step S1022, according to the conversion relationship between the pressure and torque of the threshing cylinder hydraulic clutch, the corrected relationship model is converted into a reference torque decision model.

[0058] Since the pressure of the threshing cylinder hydraulic clutch will be converted into the thrust of the hydraulic cylinder, the thrust of the hydraulic cylinder can be calculated based on the pressure of the threshing cylinder hydraulic clutch, and then the torque of the threshing cylinder can be determined according to the product of the thrust of the hydraulic cylinder and the force arm. Therefore, the conversion relationship between the pressure and torque of the threshing cylinder hydraulic clutch can be determined. According to this conversion relationship between the pressure and torque of the threshing cylinder hydraulic clutch, the corrected relationship model can be converted into a reference torque decision model, where the input of the reference torque decision model is the feeding amount and the output is the torque.

[0059] In step S103, using the reference torque decision model, the reference torque range under the current feeding amount of the grain and the grain parameters of the fed grain is determined.

[0060] A speed sensor is provided on the upper part of the hydraulic drive axle box of the combine harvester, and the current traveling speed of the combine harvester is collected by using the speed sensor.

[0061] Here, when determining the reference torque range, the current feeding amount of the grain and the collected grain parameters can be input into the reference torque decision model, and the reference torque decision model will output the reference torque range.

[0062] The reference torque range is determined in real time based on the grain parameters and the current feeding amount of the grain. This reference torque range can timely and accurately reflect the torque required for the combine harvester to be in the best operating state under the current conditions.

[0063] In this way, when the combine harvester operates with a torque exceeding this reference torque range, the working efficiency of the combine harvester will decrease and it cannot operate in the best working state.

[0064] In step S104, the current torque is compared with the reference torque range, and the traveling speed of the combine harvester is controlled according to the torque comparison result.

[0065] In this step, it is determined whether the current torque exceeds the reference torque range. If the current torque does not exceed the reference torque range, the combine harvester is controlled to continue traveling at the current traveling speed; if the current torque exceeds the reference torque range, the adaptive control program in the vehicle-mounted controller is triggered. The adaptive control program will determine the target traveling speed according to the difference between the current torque and the target reference torque in the reference torque range. Then, the vehicle-mounted controller issues a traveling speed control instruction to the traveling device solenoid valve to adjust the oil supply of the electro-hydraulic pump to the drive axle box motor through the solenoid valve, so that the combine harvester travels at the target traveling speed.

[0066] The situation where the current torque exceeds the reference torque range is divided into two cases:

[0067] In one case, the current torque is lower than the reference torque range. At this time, the lower limit value of the reference torque range or the reference torque corresponding to the preset low percentile is selected as the target reference torque. For example: calculate the difference between the upper limit and the lower limit in the reference torque range, and the sum of the product of this difference and 0.25 and the lower limit is used as the target reference torque, where 0.25 represents the low percentile. Then, according to the difference between the current torque and the target reference torque, the target driving speed is determined. At this time, the target driving speed can be calculated by a driving speed prediction model or determined according to the preset corresponding relationship between the torque difference and the driving speed.

[0068] In the other case, the current torque is higher than the reference torque range. At this time, the upper limit value of the reference torque range or the reference torque corresponding to the preset high percentile is selected as the target reference torque. For example: calculate the difference between the upper limit and the lower limit in the reference torque range, and the sum of the product of this difference and 0.75 and the lower limit is used as the target reference torque, where 0.75 represents the high percentile. Then, according to the difference between the current torque and the target reference torque, the target driving speed is determined. Similarly, the target driving speed can be calculated by a driving speed prediction model or determined according to the preset corresponding relationship between the torque difference and the driving speed.

[0069] In an example, the rotational speed of the threshing cylinder and the driving speed of the combine harvester need to be matched in real time. For example: when increasing the driving speed, it may be necessary to synchronously increase the rotational speed of the cylinder to process more crops; in the case of lodged or wet crops, it may be necessary to increase the rotational speed of the threshing cylinder while reducing the driving speed. To this end, a rotational speed sensor is set on the shaft of the threshing cylinder of the combine harvester, and the current rotational speed of the threshing cylinder shaft is collected by the rotational speed sensor. Then, the current driving speed, the current feeding amount of the grain, and the grain parameters are input into the reference rotational speed decision model to determine the reference rotational speed range, and the current rotational speed collected by the rotational speed sensor is compared with the reference rotational speed range, and the rotational speed of the threshing cylinder in the combine harvester is controlled according to the rotational speed comparison result.

[0070] For example: when the current rotational speed is not within the reference rotational speed range, if the current rotational speed is lower than the reference rotational speed range, it is necessary to increase the rotational speed of the threshing cylinder. At this time, the lower limit of the reference rotational speed range is selected as the target reference rotational speed; if the current rotational speed is higher than the reference rotational speed range, it is necessary to reduce the rotational speed of the threshing cylinder. At this time, the upper limit of the reference rotational speed range is selected as the target reference rotational speed. Then, determine the difference between the current rotational speed and the target reference rotational speed, and adjust the current rotational speed of the threshing cylinder through PID control based on this difference.

[0071] Here, since the reference rotational speed range is determined based on the real-time collected driving speed, the current grain feeding amount, and the grain parameters, the reference rotational speed range can be calculated more accurately, improving the control accuracy of the grain harvester.

[0072] Among them, the reference rotational speed decision model can be a trained neural network model. Through the reference rotational speed decision model, the optimal rotational speed range of the threshing cylinder can be determined under the current grain feeding amount and the grain type, so as to use this reference rotational speed range to achieve precise control of the threshing cylinder in the grain harvester.

[0073] Meanwhile, a display device is also provided on the grain harvester. The data collected by each sensor will be sent to the display device in real time. For example, the current driving speed of the grain harvester, the current torque value and rotational speed of the threshing cylinder shaft, and the current grain feeding amount will be displayed on the display device, so that the driver can view the various performance parameters of the grain harvester in the display device.

[0074] Based on the same inventive concept, an embodiment of the present application also provides a grain harvester control device corresponding to the grain harvester control method.
