Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of agricultural machinery, and in particular to a rice machine unloading drum calibration system, method and equipment. Background Art

[0002] With the significant increase in agricultural mechanization, rice harvesters have been widely used, which have improved harvesting efficiency and reduced labor intensity to a certain extent. Rice harvesters can complete a series of operations such as harvesting, threshing, cleaning, collecting and unloading crops.

[0003] During the rice harvesting process, after the harvester completes harvesting and sorting the crops, unloading operations are required when the grain bin is full. Due to the small size of the harvester's bin, unloading operations are frequent. In the past, after unloading, the driver would directly return the unloading drum to its original position with a single button, and simultaneously begin harvesting during the return process to improve harvesting efficiency. The most common method of operating the unloading drum is to manually control the return button to return the drum to the preset position. For some unloading drums equipped with simple positioning devices, returning the drum to its original position is also based on more basic positioning information.

[0004] However, due to technical interference with the motor encoder's operating accuracy during rotation, errors can occur when the unloading drum returns to its original position. When these errors accumulate to a certain angle, the unloading drum cannot accurately return to its original position above the unloading drum bracket, and may even damage other components, seriously affecting the normal use and operating efficiency of the rice harvester.

Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0029] In this document, the term "and / or" simply describes a relationship between related objects, indicating that three possible relationships exist. For example, "A and / or B" can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, or B exists alone. Furthermore, the character " / " in this document, unless otherwise specified, generally indicates an "or" relationship between the related objects.

[0030] like Figure 1As shown, a rice harvester grain discharge drum calibration system includes a drive mechanism connected to the grain discharge drum 3, an angle sensing assembly 7, a baffle detection assembly 9, and a controller 4. The angle sensing assembly 7 is disposed on one side of the rotation axis of the grain discharge drum 3, and the baffle detection assembly 9 is disposed on both sides 10 of the return bracket of the grain discharge drum 3. The drive mechanism, the angle sensing assembly 7, and the baffle detection assembly 9 are all connected to the controller 4. Through the coordinated operation of these components, relevant information about the grain discharge drum 3 can be acquired and analyzed in real time, achieving the effect of accurately detecting position deviations of the grain discharge drum 3 and performing calibration.

[0031] The driving mechanism is used to drive the grain unloading drum 3 to perform horizontal rotation and vertical lifting; Angle sensor assembly 7, used for real-time detection of the height inclination information of the grain unloading drum 3, and sending the height inclination information to the controller 4, wherein the height inclination information represents the rotation angle of the grain unloading drum 3 in the vertical direction relative to the initial position; The baffle detection component 9 is used to detect the baffle detection information of the grain unloading drum 3 in real time during the movement process, and the baffle detection information represents the positional relationship between the grain unloading drum 3 and the baffle of the return bracket; The controller 4 is used to obtain the height and inclination information and baffle detection information of the grain unloading barrel 3 in real time, and calculate the offset angle of the grain unloading barrel 3 from the preset standard position based on the height and inclination information and the baffle detection information. The offset angle represents the spatial angular deviation of the grain unloading barrel 3 at the current position relative to the preset standard position; based on the offset angle of the grain unloading barrel 3, the compensation angle of the grain unloading barrel 3 is determined, and the driving mechanism is controlled to drive the grain unloading barrel 3 to rotate and adjust according to the compensation angle so that the grain unloading barrel 3 reaches the preset standard position.

[0032] In the embodiment of the present application, the driving mechanism includes an upper and lower lifting assembly 6 for the grain unloading drum, a rotating gear 1 meshed with the horizontal rotating shaft of the grain unloading drum 3, and a grain unloading drum rotating motor 2 coaxially connected to the rotating gear 1, and the grain unloading drum rotating motor 2 is integrated with a motor encoder.

[0033] The grain unloading drum lifting assembly 6 is used to drive the grain unloading drum 3 to perform vertical lifting movements; The grain unloading drum rotating motor 2 is used to drive the rotating gear 1 to rotate; The rotating gear 1 is used to transmit the rotational power generated by the grain unloading drum rotating motor 2 to the grain unloading drum 3, so that the grain unloading drum 3 can rotate in the horizontal direction.

[0034] The grain drum lifting assembly 6 can be a hydraulic lifting device that achieves vertical lifting of the grain drum 3 through changes in hydraulic oil pressure, or it can be an electric screw lifting mechanism that drives the grain drum 3 up and down through the motor-driven screw. The motor encoder provides real-time feedback of the motor's rotational position information and sends it to the controller 4. The grain drum 3 lifting assembly is firmly connected to the grain drum 3 via a connector. The rotating gear 1 is tightly engaged with the horizontal rotating shaft of the grain drum 3. The grain drum rotating motor 2 is coaxially connected to the rotating gear 1 via a coupling, ensuring effective power transmission, allowing the drive mechanism to flexibly drive the grain drum 3 to perform horizontal rotation and vertical lifting movements.

[0035] The angle sensing assembly 7 includes a plurality of angle sensors arranged near the rotation axis of the grain unloading drum 3. The angle sensor is fixed to one side of the rotation axis of the grain unloading drum 3 through a mounting bracket, and can detect the height inclination information of the grain unloading drum 3 in real time and send the information to the controller 4.

[0036] The baffle detection assembly 9 includes baffle trigger switches symmetrically positioned on baffles 10 on either side of the return bracket. These switches can be microswitches, which generate an electrical signal when the grain unloading drum 3 contacts the baffles, or proximity switches, which generate a signal by detecting the proximity of the grain unloading drum 3 to the baffles. The baffle trigger switches are symmetrically positioned along the axis of symmetry at the top of the return bracket, enabling accurate detection of baffle information during movement of the grain unloading drum 3, specifically the positional relationship between the grain unloading drum 3 and the return bracket's baffles.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present application, the rice machine grain unloading drum calibration system also includes a touch screen display 8 and a control handle 5, both of which are connected to the controller 4; the touch screen display 8 is used to configure the automatic calibration function and set the offset angle threshold; the control handle 5 is used to respond to the user's trigger action for moving the grain unloading drum 3, obtain a trigger signal, and enable the controller 4 to control the grain unloading drum 3 to move from the bracket position to the grain unloading operation position based on the trigger signal.

[0038] The touch display screen 8 can be configured with an automatic calibration function and a set offset angle threshold, which is convenient for user operation and adjustment of parameters according to actual conditions; the control handle 5 can respond to the movement trigger action of the grain unloading barrel 3 to obtain a trigger signal, so that the controller 4 controls the grain unloading barrel 3 to move from the bracket position to the grain unloading operation position, making it convenient for users to control the position movement of the grain unloading barrel 3 and improving the convenience and flexibility of system operation.

[0039] Optional, such as Figure 2 As shown, the controller 4 is used to calculate the offset angle of the grain unloading drum 3 from the preset standard position based on the height inclination information and the baffle detection information, specifically for: Based on the baffle detection information, determine whether the grain unloading drum 3 is in contact with the baffle on either side of the return bracket; If the grain unloading drum 3 contacts the baffle on either side of the return bracket, the height of the grain unloading drum 3 is calculated based on the height inclination information; Calculating the offset distance of the grain unloading drum 3 based on the height of the grain unloading drum 3 and the height inclination information; Based on the offset distance of the grain unloading drum 3 , the offset angle of the grain unloading drum 3 from the preset standard position is calculated.

[0040] In the embodiment of the present application, the controller 4 is configured to determine the compensation angle of the grain unloading drum 3 based on the offset angle of the grain unloading drum 3, specifically to: Determine whether the offset angle of the grain unloading drum 3 is greater than a set offset angle threshold; If the offset angle is greater than the set offset angle threshold, the offset angle is determined to be the compensation angle of the grain unloading drum 3 .

[0041] When the grain unloading drum 3 completes its unloading operation and begins to return to its original position within the bracket, the vertical angle sensor measures the angle θ of the grain unloading drum 3 relative to the horizontal plane in real time and continuously transmits the measurement data to the controller 4. During the falling process of the grain unloading drum 3, if its left and right positioning is not accurate, it may hit the baffle on one side of the bracket. When the grain unloading drum 3 hits the baffle, it presses on the baffle. The baffle sensor detects this pressing signal and immediately transmits the signal to the controller 4.

[0042] After receiving the real-time angle θ transmitted by the upper and lower angle sensors, the controller 4 calculates the height AC of the grain unloading drum 3 based on the known horizontal projection length L of the grain unloading drum 3. Then, the offset distance A'E' of the grain unloading drum 3 is calculated according to the preset distance formula. The preset distance formula is: A'E'=tan(θ1)×AC= tan(θ1)×tanθ×L; After that, the required compensation angle = tan(θ1) × tanθ × 180° / π is determined by the distance.

[0043] In the embodiment of the present application, the controller 4 is further configured to: Determine whether the engine speed of the rice harvester is greater than a set engine speed threshold, or determine whether the battery voltage of the rice harvester is greater than a set voltage threshold, and determine whether the functions of the angle sensor component 7 and the motor encoder are normal, and determine whether the automatic calibration function of the grain unloading drum 3 of the touch screen 8 is activated; If the engine speed of the rice machine is greater than the set engine speed threshold, or the battery voltage of the rice machine is greater than the set voltage threshold, and the angle sensing component 7 and the motor encoder function normally, and the automatic calibration function of the grain unloading barrel 3 of the touch display screen 8 is started, the height inclination information and the baffle detection information of the grain unloading barrel 3 are obtained in real time, and based on the height inclination information and the baffle detection information, the offset angle of the grain unloading barrel 3 from the preset standard position is calculated, and based on the offset angle of the grain unloading barrel 3, the compensation angle of the grain unloading barrel 3 is determined, and the driving mechanism is controlled to drive the grain unloading barrel 3 to rotate and adjust according to the compensation angle.

[0044] By judging the rice machine engine speed, battery voltage, angle sensor component 7 and motor encoder function and the automatic calibration function of the grain unloading barrel 3 of the touch display screen 8 before obtaining the relevant information of the grain unloading barrel 3 in real time, subsequent operations such as calculation of the offset angle of the grain unloading barrel 3, determination of the compensation angle and rotation adjustment are performed only when the corresponding conditions are met, ensuring that the calibration system operates in a suitable working state and avoiding invalid or erroneous calibration operations.

[0045] In the embodiment of the present application, the controller 4 is further configured to: In response to a user's triggering action for manual calibration of the grain unloading drum 3, a manual calibration signal is acquired, and based on the manual calibration signal, the grain unloading drum 3 is calibrated in the bracket; Controlling the driving mechanism to drive the grain unloading barrel 3 to rise to the highest position of the grain unloading barrel 3, and after the grain unloading barrel 3 rises to the highest position of the grain unloading barrel 3, controlling the driving mechanism to drive the grain unloading barrel 3 to rotate horizontally, and taking the minimum resolution during the horizontal rotation of the grain unloading barrel 3 as the calibration resolution; The calibration resolution is sent to the touch screen display 8 so that the touch screen display 8 displays calibration completion information.

[0046] In the embodiment of the present application, manual calibration is required during the first calibration. After manually calibrating the up, down, left and right positions in the grain unloading barrel 3 bracket, the left and right rotation resolution is determined. As long as manual calibration is not performed subsequently, the minimum resolution of the left and right rotation of the mechanical structure will not be changed until the next manual calibration action.

[0047] The controller 4 automatically determines and adjusts the calibration resolution. After the handle calibrates the position of the grain unloading barrel 3, the grain unloading barrel 3 rises to the highest point and then rotates left and right. The minimum resolution for stable left and right rotation is analyzed and calculated, and the calibration is completed when the screen displays it. This action is completed along with the manual calibration of the grain unloading barrel 3, thereby improving the return accuracy of the grain unloading barrel 3.

[0048] This system can drive the grain unloading barrel 3 to rotate horizontally and lift vertically through the driving mechanism. The angle sensing component 7 can detect the height inclination information of the grain unloading barrel 3 in real time and send it to the controller 4. The baffle detection component 9 can detect the positional relationship between the grain unloading barrel 3 and the return bracket baffle in real time. After obtaining this information, the controller 4 calculates the offset angle of the grain unloading barrel 3 from the preset standard position, and then determines the compensation angle, and controls the driving mechanism to drive the grain unloading barrel 3 to rotate and adjust according to the compensation angle, thereby ensuring the return accuracy of the grain unloading barrel 3 and preventing it from deviating from the bracket. The system does not require high rotation accuracy of the motor, and reasonable compensation values ​​can be set for motors with different precisions. It has high cost performance and practicality, with small changes in the solution, simple design and implementation, and easy promotion.
