Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of agricultural machinery, and in particular relates to a method, device, equipment and medium for controlling the speed of a tractor traveling in a field. Background Art
[0002] Traditional tractor speed control in field operations relies primarily on terrain sensing and engine load regulation. Using slope sensors and soil resistance sensors to obtain surface information, combined with real-time engine load data, the system dynamically adjusts power output to prevent slippage or overload. While this technology can address basic terrain changes, the decision-making model is based solely on the machine's operating conditions.
[0003] With the increasing adoption of precision agronomic techniques such as close-row spacing and dense planting, seeding operations are placing stringent demands on speed control. Narrow-row spacing requires strict limits on maximum speed to ensure uniform seeding, and micro-topographic fluctuations can easily lead to variations in seeding depth. Existing systems treat agronomic parameters such as row spacing and seeding depth as fixed set points and fail to integrate them into a real-time control loop.
[0004] Current mainstream control technologies suffer from fundamental flaws. Agronomic needs and machine control are disconnected, resulting in an inability to automatically trigger speed limits when operating in narrow row spacing. Operators are forced to manually reduce speed, sacrificing efficiency or experiencing a significant decrease in seeding quality, severely hindering the implementation of precision agriculture technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0067] Embodiment 1: A method for controlling the speed of a tractor traveling in a field, comprising the following steps:
[0068] S1. Acquire real-time terrain parameters through vehicle-mounted sensors, wherein the terrain parameters include slope angle θ and soil hardness H;
[0069] Specifically, the vehicle-mounted tilt sensor detects a slope angle of θ = 0.5°, and the soil hardness probe measures the hardness of the cultivated layer as 42 kPa. After mean filtering, the data is output as: θ = 0.5°, H = 42 kPa;
[0070] S2. Obtaining preset operation type parameters through a human-computer interaction interface, wherein the operation type parameters include tillage depth and sowing row spacing;
[0071] Specifically, the driver selects the "precision seeding" mode on the ISOBUS terminal and sets the key parameters:
[0072] Tillage depth: 5cm, sowing row spacing: 15cm;
[0073] The system automatically associates the line spacing parameters with the speed decision model;
[0074] S3, input the terrain parameters and operation type parameters into the pre-trained speed decision model, and output the target speed range [V min ,V max ];
[0075] Specifically, the control unit integrates the row spacing parameters to calculate the target speed: the base speed for seeding operation is 8.5 km / h;
[0076] Line spacing compensation: For a 15cm line spacing, the speed is reduced by 0.8km / h for every 5cm reduction (baseline 20cm), with a cumulative speed reduction of 0.8km / h;
[0077] Soil compensation: 42kPa is below the threshold of 50kPa, and the logarithmic model produces a positive compensation of +0.28km / h;
[0078] Slope compensation can be ignored (θ<1°), and the target speed range is finally generated: [6.0km / h, 7.0km / h]. The upper limit of 7.0km / h ensures the seeding accuracy of narrow row spacing.

[0086] S6, when V actual <V min And L engine When it is less than 85%, a hydraulic system pressure boost command is generated to increase the displacement ratio by ΔQ;
[0087] Specifically, when the actual speed is 6.91 km / h, close to the target lower limit of 6.0 km / h, but the load rate is 72% < 85%, the boost condition is triggered:
[0088] Calculate displacement ratio increment: ΔQ = 0.8 × (7.0-6.91) × e (-0.5 / 2.0) =0.052;
[0089] The hydraulic valve opening is increased by 5.2%;
[0090] 3 seconds after execution, the speed increases to 7.05km / h;
[0091] S7, when V actual >V max or L engine When the load is ≥90%, a transmission downshift command is generated and the proportional valve brake is activated;
[0092] Specifically, at a speed of 7.05 km / h, within the target range of [6.0, 7.0], with a load factor of 74% < 90% and a slip ratio of 7.1% < the safety threshold, no braking condition is triggered. The system maintains the current gear (H4).
[0093] S8. Sending the control instruction to the power transmission system for execution;
[0094] Specifically, the hydraulic boost command is transmitted via the CAN bus, and the electronically controlled hydraulic valve adjusts the displacement ratio from 62% to 67.2% within 80ms, and the pressure sensor confirms that the execution is in place.
[0095] S9, after a delay of Δt, returns to S4 for closed-loop feedback, where Δt is adjustable from 200ms to 500ms;
[0096] Specifically, dynamic delay calculation:
[0097] Suspension mass 380kg (seeder + seeds)
[0098]
[0099] Post-delay monitoring:
[0100] The speed is stable at 7.02km / h (measured by GPS);
[0101] The load factor increased slightly to 75%;
[0102] The system maintains the current control parameters.
