Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of heat dissipation systems, and in particular to a dump truck and a control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Mining dump trucks are specialized transport equipment used in open-pit mining and large-scale earthwork construction. Electric-driven dump trucks are the preferred equipment for green mining, enjoying the trust of mining customers for their high energy efficiency, environmental friendliness, noise reduction, reliability, high control precision, and advanced automation.

[0003] The cooling system of electric dump trucks currently uses an engine-directed fan drive system. Specifically, the cooling system consists of an engine, a belt, and a fan. There are currently two drive methods: one in which the engine drives the fan via a drive belt, and the other in which the engine directly drives the fan. Both drive methods directly correlate fan speed with engine speed, requiring adjustment only by varying engine speed: high fan speed at high engine speeds and low fan speed at low engine speeds. When the water and oil temperatures are low, the fan speed should be lowered or even stopped. However, since the fan is directly driven by the engine and operating conditions require the engine to operate in the intermediate or high speed range, the fan speed is higher in these situations. This creates a problem of redundant cooling power, increasing engine fuel consumption and user costs. Furthermore, since the fan is directly driven by the engine, fan speed cannot be adjusted autonomously, increasing fan noise with increasing engine speed. This also intensifies the engine's vibration, which is transmitted to the fan. Furthermore, the drive belt is susceptible to wear and fatigue fracture, increasing the probability of system failure and reducing reliability. Summary of the Invention

[0028] The terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion of elements other than the listed elements and may also include additional elements not specifically listed.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the dump truck includes an engine, a control system and a hydraulic cooling system. The control system is connected to the engine. The hydraulic cooling system includes a pump displacement control module 111, a plunger pump 112, an oil tank 113, a motor 131 and a fan 15. The hydraulic cooling system is used to dissipate heat from the hydraulic oil in the oil tank 113 and the coolant of the engine. The control system of the dump truck is electrically connected to the pump displacement control module 111, and the pump displacement control module 111 is electrically connected to the plunger pump 112. The pump displacement control module 111 can control the displacement of the plunger pump 112. The plunger pump 112 is connected to the oil tank 113, and the plunger pump 112 is connected to the motor 131 through a pipeline. The output shaft of the motor 131 is connected to the spline of the fan 15. Motor 131 is a plunger motor. Compared with gear motors and cycloid motors, plunger motors are suitable for high-pressure fields and are mainly used in heavy machinery and high-load equipment. They can work stably under extreme conditions. The pump displacement control module 111 changes the displacement of the plunger pump 112 and the oil supply direction of the plunger pump 112 so that the plunger motor can rotate forward and reverse. The purpose of reversal is to remove dust and impurities on the fan 15 to prevent dust and impurities from affecting the heat dissipation performance.

[0030] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, when the control system detects that the engine coolant temperature is lower than T1, where T1 is 0°C, the control system outputs a current value of 500mA to 550mA to the pump displacement control module 111, such as 500mA, 530mA, or 550mA, so that the plunger pump 112 is at zero displacement. At this time, the motor 131 has no speed output, and the hydraulic cooling system does not work. When the control system detects that the coolant temperature is between T1 and T2, when T2 is 83°C, T1~T2 is 0°C~83°C, and the coolant temperature is, for example, 10°C, 30°C, 53°C, 63°C or 83°C, the control system outputs a current value of 400mA to the pump displacement control module 111, causing the plunger pump 112 to output a first displacement value, and the motor 131 to output a speed matching the first displacement value, i.e., a relatively low speed, so that the hydraulic cooling system can meet the thermal balance performance at this time; When the control system detects that the coolant temperature is between T2 and T3, when T3 is 93°C, T2~T3 is 83°C~93°C, and the coolant temperature is, for example, 84°C, 85°C, 90°C or 93°C, etc., the control system outputs a current range value of the pump displacement control module 111 of 400mA~120mA, such as 350mA, 300mA, 330mA, 200mA or 120mA, etc. The displacement of the plunger pump 112 changes according to the current change of the A3 pump displacement control module 111, and the hydraulic cooling system maintains dynamic thermal balance according to the working conditions at this time.

[0031] When the control system detects that the coolant temperature is greater than T3, when T3 is 93°C, that is, greater than 93°C, the control system outputs a current value of less than 120mA to the pump displacement control module 111, the plunger pump 112 outputs the maximum displacement, and the motor 131 reaches the maximum speed; The hydraulic cooling system primarily determines the temperature of the coolant, with the temperature of the hydraulic oil in the tank 113 serving as an auxiliary factor. When the control system detects that the hydraulic oil temperature is greater than 80°C, the pump displacement control module 111 controls the plunger pump 112 to output the maximum displacement, and the motor 131 rotates at its maximum speed. Regardless of the coolant temperature range, the plunger pump 112 outputs at its maximum displacement, causing the motor 131 and the fan 15 to operate at their maximum speeds. When the pump displacement control module 111 loses power, the plunger pump 112 outputs the maximum displacement and the motor 131 rotates at the maximum speed. Therefore, even if the control system fails, the heat dissipation requirement can be met.

[0032] It is understandable that during the operation of the dump truck, the control system detects and determines the temperature of the hydraulic oil in the oil tank and the temperature of the engine coolant in real time, so as to adjust the speed of the motor 131 in real time according to different temperature ranges. For example, the engine's thermostat detects the coolant temperature. When the thermostat detects that the coolant temperature is 90°C, the control system outputs a corresponding current value to the pump displacement control module 111 between 400 mA and 120 mA. At this time, the pump displacement control module 111 controls the displacement of the plunger pump 112 to increase, so that the motor 131 reaches an ideal speed. The connection between the fan 15 and the motor 131 makes the fan 15 and the motor 131 have the same speed, so that the fan 15 dissipates heat for the hydraulic oil and coolant; the thermostat detects the coolant temperature in real time. When the thermostat detects that the coolant temperature drops to 83°C, the control system changes the current of the pump displacement control module 111 to 400 mA. At this time, the plunger pump 112 outputs a small displacement and the motor 131 rotates at a low speed; this is to achieve different motor 131 speed adjustment according to different temperature ranges, with the characteristics of fan 15 speed temperature adaptation, temperature closed-loop control, and real-time speed monitoring.

[0033] The hydraulic cooling system of the dump truck of the present invention detects and determines the temperature of the hydraulic oil in the oil tank 113 and the coolant of the engine through the control system, outputs or changes the current of the pump displacement control module 111 according to different temperature ranges, so that the pump displacement control module 111 controls the pump displacement and rotation direction of the plunger pump 112. It can be understood that the control system directly controls the speed of the motor 131 through the pump displacement control module 111. There is no direct connection between the speed of the motor 131 and the engine. Compared with the connection method between the engine and the fan 15 in the prior art, the vibration of the fan 15 is reduced and the service life is increased. The high temperature and low speed control characteristics reduce the noise of the fan 15 and improve the human-machine comfort; even if the control system fails or the pump displacement control module 111 loses power, the plunger pump 112 can automatically return to the large displacement output, so that the heat dissipation performance is maximized to meet the heat dissipation needs. Therefore, the hydraulic heat dissipation system can adjust the speed of the motor 131 according to different temperature ranges, and has the characteristics of fan 15 speed temperature adaptation, temperature closed-loop control, and real-time speed monitoring; in addition, the plunger pump 112 and motor 131 components are highly centralized, with a simple structure, easy layout and maintenance, and convenient detection.

[0034] Preferably, the hydraulic cooling system further comprises an oil replenishment pump 114 and a filter 115. The oil replenishment pump 114 is connected between the oil tank 113 and the filter 115. The oil replenishment pump 114 is used to replenish oil leaked from the hydraulic cooling system and the oil flushed out by the flushing valve 133 integrated in the motor 131. The filter 115 is used to remove impurities from the oil entering the hydraulic cooling system, preventing heat dissipation problems caused by impurities being stuck, which can effectively improve the service life of the components and the reliability of the hydraulic cooling system. The filter 115 has a first oil outlet and a second outlet. The first oil outlet is connected to the pump displacement control module 111. The oil in the oil tank 113 flows into the plunger pump 112 after passing through the oil replenishment pump 114, the first oil outlet, and the pump displacement control module 111. The hydraulic cooling system further comprises an oil replenishment relief valve 116, which is connected to the second oil outlet. The oil replenishment relief valve 116 is used to replenish oil and stabilize pressure to prevent the plunger from hitting the cylinder due to insufficient oil replenishment. The oil replenishment relief valve 116 is normally open during operation. In this embodiment, the filter 115 is provided with a bypass valve 1151 and a clogging alarm 1152.

The reversing valve 111a is used to control the forward or reverse rotation of the plunger pump 112, and the servo piston 111b controls the swash plate swing angle of the plunger pump 112 to achieve the purpose of controlling the displacement of the plunger pump 112.

When the plunger pump 112 supplies oil to the first oil circuit 11 and the oil pressure of the first oil circuit 11 increases to the pressure value of the first pressure cut-off valve 117, the first pressure cut-off valve 117 opens, and the oil in the first oil circuit 11 overflows to the pump displacement control module 111, thereby reducing the displacement of the plunger pump 112. The pressure cut-off valve 118 connects the pump displacement control module 111 and the second oil circuit 12. When the plunger pump 112 supplies oil to the second oil circuit 12 and the oil pressure in the second oil circuit 12 increases to the pressure value of the second pressure cut-off valve 118, the second pressure cut-off valve 118 opens, and the oil in the second oil circuit 12 overflows to the pump displacement control module 111, reducing the displacement of the plunger pump 112; the first pressure cut-off valve 117 and the second pressure cut-off valve 118 can prevent damage to components due to continuous overflow of large displacement.

[0044] Preferably, the hydraulic cooling system also includes a speed sensor 134, which is electrically connected to the motor 131. The speed sensor 134 is used to control the system to detect and correct control parameters, that is, to detect the speed of the motor 131. It is used when debugging the hydraulic cooling system to calibrate the relationship between the current and the speed of the fan 15, because there is a difference between the current and the speed of the fan 15 of motors 131 of different models or sizes.

[0045] Preferably, the motor displacement control module 132 , the flushing valve 133 and the speed sensor 134 are respectively integrated into the motor 131 .

[0046] The present invention also relates to a control method for the above-mentioned hydraulic cooling system, the control method comprising: The engine's thermostat detects the engine's coolant temperature and feeds the data back to the control system, which then determines the temperature; When the control system determines that the coolant temperature is lower than 0°C, the control system outputs a current value of 500mA to 550mA to the pump displacement control module 111, the plunger pump 112 outputs an oil displacement of zero, and the motor 131 has no speed output; When the control system determines that the coolant temperature is between 0°C and 83°C, the control system changes the current value of the pump displacement control module 111 to 400mA, the plunger pump 112 outputs the first displacement value, and the motor 131 outputs a speed matching the first displacement value; When the control system determines that the coolant temperature is between 83°C and 93°C, the control system proportionally changes the current value of the pump displacement control module 111 between 400mA and 120mA, and the displacement of the plunger pump 112 is proportionally changed; it is understandable that when the current value of the pump displacement control module 111 is between 400mA and 120mA, the displacement output by the plunger pump is greater than the first displacement value; When the control system determines that the coolant temperature is above 93° C., the control system changes the current value of the pump displacement control module 111 to be less than 120 mA, the plunger pump 112 outputs the maximum displacement value, and the motor 131 rotates at the maximum speed.

[0047] The oil tank 113 is equipped with a temperature sensor that detects the temperature of the hydraulic oil in the oil tank 113 and feeds this temperature back to the control system. When the control system determines that the hydraulic oil temperature is greater than 80°C, the pump displacement control module 111 controls the plunger pump 112 to output the maximum displacement and the motor 131 to rotate at the maximum speed. At this time, regardless of the coolant temperature in any range, the plunger pump 112 outputs at the maximum displacement, causing the motor 131 and the fan 15 to operate at the maximum speed. When the pump displacement control module 111 loses power or the control system fails, the plunger pump 112 outputs a large displacement, causing the motor 131 to rotate at the maximum speed; During the operation of the dump truck, the control system detects and determines the hydraulic oil temperature of the oil tank 113 and the coolant temperature of the engine in real time, so as to adjust the speed of the motor 131 in real time according to different temperature ranges.

[0048] Therefore, the control method can adjust the speed of the motor 131 according to different temperature ranges, and has the characteristics of temperature adaptation of the fan 15 speed, temperature closed-loop control and real-time speed detection, so that the performance of the hydraulic control cooling system is always in the optimal working range, the engine power utilization rate is high, and fuel consumption is reduced. Among them, the temperature closed-loop control refers to the control system detecting the engine coolant temperature and the hydraulic oil temperature in the fuel tank 113, changing the speed of the motor 131 and the fan 15 by changing the current of the pump displacement control module 111, and then detecting the temperature of the coolant and hydraulic oil after the fan 15 speed is changed, and comparing the temperature before and after the fan 15 speed is changed to control the fan 15 speed in real time; it can be understood that the speed of the motor 131 is equal to the speed of the fan 15; in addition, the pump displacement control module 111 has the characteristic of returning to maximum displacement when power is lost. This characteristic can ensure that when the control system fails (causing the pump displacement control module 111 to lose power), the hydraulic cooling system is in the maximum heat dissipation state, with high reliability, greater safety and stability.

[0049] The above are merely specific embodiments of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any modifications or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this invention are intended to be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the appended claims.
