Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of jib deflection compensation, and particularly relates to a jib deflection compensation method and system based on cable angle detection. BACKGROUND

[0002] In various engineering operations and logistics loading and unloading scenarios, the transfer vehicle often undertakes the important task of lifting heavy objects. When the transfer vehicle is lifting, the jib, as a key load-bearing component, will inevitably be deformed due to the weight of the lifted object, specifically manifested as the jib bending downward.

[0003] The influence brought by this deflection deformation is multifaceted. First, in the horizontal direction, there will be a significant misalignment between the sling and the lifted object. Due to the bending deformation of the jib, the relative position between the sling and the lifted object, which was originally in a vertical state, changes, so that the sling cannot be accurately positioned directly above the lifted object. This not only affects the accuracy of lifting, but also may cause the lifted object to sway during lifting, increasing the safety risk. Second, the sling itself will also produce a roll angle tilt. The deformation of the jib will change the force distribution on the sling, causing the sling to have an abnormal spatial posture. This roll angle tilt will further affect the stability and safety of lifting, making it difficult for the sling to maintain balance during lifting, increasing the possibility of the sling falling off or the lifted object losing control.

[0004] In the traditional response method, in order to accurately grasp the deflection deformation of the jib as much as possible, it is necessary to measure 4 deflection curves under different arm lengths and amplitude angles. In actual operation, this means that the staff needs to measure and record multiple times for each combination of arm length and amplitude angle. Since the range of arm length and amplitude angle is large, and the measurement process needs to strictly follow the operating procedures to ensure the accuracy of the data, the entire measurement work not only has a huge workload, but also is very inefficient. SUMMARY

[0014] As a further scheme of the present application: the obtaining process of the amplitude deviation comprises:

[0015] The target length L_aim of the sliding cylinder is L_init+ΔL, where L_init is the initial length of the sliding cylinder, and ΔL=BD; according to the target length, the amplitude deviation L_error=L_aim-L_real is obtained, where L_real is the actual length of the sliding cylinder.

[0016] As a further scheme of the present application: the rolling angle deviation A_error=-A_real, where A_real is the rolling angle of the lifting tool.

[0017] As a further scheme of the present application: the process of performing anti-overshoot safety judgment according to the sliding displacement threshold value comprises: if |ΔL| is greater than the sliding displacement threshold value, the compensation is paused.

[0018] The boom amplitude compensation system based on diagonal tension angle detection comprises:

[0019] The input unit comprises a detection module and an operation handle for operating signal input, and the detection module comprises a cable angle encoder, a lifting length sensor, a sliding length sensor and an inclination sensor;

[0033] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0034] In existing technology, the crane arm of a transfer truck is rigidly connected to the spreader through a hinge point and a leveling cylinder. The spreader's rotary lock is locked with the load's corner fittings to achieve a rigid connection between the spreader and the load. This rigid connection facilitates the spreader's own posture adjustment, improves spreader loading efficiency, and is the prerequisite for unmanned and fully automated operation of transfer trucks.

[0035] After the spreader is rigidly connected to the load, the transfer truck starts lifting. When the load weighing tens of tons is gradually carried by the boom, the weight of the load causes the boom to bend downward (disturbance), resulting in a misalignment between the spreader and the load in the amplitude direction; at the same time, the spreader itself generates a roll angle.

[0036] The relationship between boom load and its disturbance is closely related to boom length and boom luffing angle. For transfer trucks, there are two different boom lengths and two different luffing angles for different operating scenarios. This requires measuring four boom load and disturbance curves, a significant workload, especially during mass production of transfer trucks.

[0037] See also Figure 2As shown, the present application provides a kind of based on cable angle detection's boom disturbance compensation method and system.The system includes: input unit, controller and output unit.Input unit is by detection module and operating handle, detection module includes cable angle encoder, lifting length sensor, sliding length sensor, inclination sensor;Output unit includes sling lifting valve group, sling sliding valve and sling leveling valve;Controller is responsible for program logic and its algorithm processing.Manipulation handle, sling lifting cylinder extends, boom slowly carries the weight of load;Boom disturbance deformation makes that sling and load produce relative displacement in horizontal direction, simultaneously make the cable on lifting cylinder row produce cable angle, conversion obtains the change of loading vehicle amplitude direction, sliding cylinder executes corresponding displacement, realizes amplitude direction compensation;Real-time detection sling roll angle angle change is simultaneously realized through leveling, and the compensation of sling roll angle is realized.

[0038] The transfer vehicle is mainly composed of a rotary table, a vertical lifting arm, a boom and a sling. After the locking pin on the rotary lock frame is locked with the corner piece of the load, the sling is rigidly connected with the load. One end of the cable row is connected with the rotary lock frame through a pin shaft, and the other end is fixed on the sling by passing through a pulley above the lifting cylinder. The lifting cylinder is extended or retracted to drive the cable row to rise or fall, thereby realizing the vertical movement of the load. The lifting length sensor detects the length of the lifting cylinder. When the boom carries the weight of the load to produce disturbance, the cable angle detection device detects the cable angle. The sliding cylinder realizes the horizontal movement (the amplitude direction of the transfer vehicle) of the sling. The sliding length sensor is used to detect the sliding stroke. The leveling cylinder realizes the adjustment of the roll angle of the sling. The inclination sensor is used to detect the roll angle of the sling.

[0039] The structure diagram of the cable angle detection device is as shown in Figure 3 The cable angle detection device includes two rotating shafts 110, which are respectively installed on both sides of the sling in the cable row 200. The two rotating shafts 110 are each provided with a rocker arm 120. The rocker arms 120 are crossed with an abutting rod 130. The two rotating shafts 110 are each provided with a torsional spring 140, which can drive the rotating shaft 110 to rotate to make the abutting rod 130 always abut with the cable row 200. One of the rotating shafts 110 is provided with a cable angle encoder 160 through a shaft coupling 150. The cable angle encoder 160 can monitor the rotation angle of the rocker arm 120 in real time, and further calculate the cable angle of the cable row 200 and the relative displacement of the sling and the load in the horizontal direction.

[0040] The cable angle detection device is simplified as a mathematical model as shown in Figure 4As shown. O point is the center of the rotating shaft, OB is the length of the rocker arm, ∠BOC is the rotating angle detected by the encoder, OA is the length of the steel wire rope row from the rotating shaft center to the top pulley of the lifting cylinder, ∠A is the angle of the steel wire rope row, and BD is the relative displacement between the lifting appliance and the hoisted object. OB=OC, ∠AOC=(180°-∠BOC), the length of OB is known, the angle of ∠BOC and the length of OA can be measured, and then the following is obtained:

[0041]

[0042] BD=AB*tan∠A=(OA+OC)*tan∠A;

[0043] The operation handle is controlled, the controller processes the handle signal at a constant speed, and then the handle signal is given to the lifting cylinder valve group. The lifting cylinder extends to drive the rope row and the rotating lock frame to rise, and the hoisting of the hoisted object is started. At the same time, the current sliding cylinder length L_init is recorded. The lifting length and the rotating angle signal of the angle of inclination encoder are detected in real time, and the relative displacement between the lifting appliance and the hoisted object in the horizontal direction is calculated. The relative displacement value is set as the displacement increment ΔL of the sliding cylinder, and the target length L_aim of the sliding cylinder is obtained in combination with the initial length L_init of the sliding cylinder, that is, L_aim=L_init+ΔL. The deviation L_error between the actual length L_real of the sliding cylinder and the target length L_aim is calculated, that is, L_error=L_aim-L_real. The sliding valve is controlled by PID to realize the compensation control of the amplitude and the direction of the lifting arm disturbance. At the same time, the inclination signal A_real of the lifting appliance is detected in real time, the deviation A_error between the actual inclination and 0° is calculated, that is, A_error=-A_real, and the leveling valve is controlled by PID to realize the compensation of the direction of the rolling angle of the lifting appliance.

[0044] In addition, the sliding displacement threshold value judgment is increased to prevent the amplitude compensation from overshooting; the pin shaft force threshold value judgment is increased to exit the disturbance compensation algorithm; and the lifting cylinder stroke threshold value is set to also exit the disturbance compensation algorithm, thereby enhancing the robustness of the algorithm. The program flow block diagram is as shown in Figure 5 .

[0045] It can be understood that the present application can compensate for the deviation of the hoisting disturbance of the rotating vehicle in the amplitude direction and the rolling angle direction of the lifting appliance, effectively control the hoisted object to be away from the collision of the box body, and the lateral force of the lifting cylinder is less than the safety threshold value. The lifting cylinder is mainly operated, and the sliding and leveling are controlled, thereby reducing the operation strength.

[0046] It is worth noting that the angle sensor can be used instead of the angle of inclination encoder in the present application, and the passive leveling (self-weight leveling) mode can be used instead of the leveling of the lifting appliance.

[0047] The above has been described in detail one embodiment of the present application, but the content is only the preferred embodiment of the present application, cannot be considered for limiting the scope of the present application. Any equivalent changes and improvements made in the scope of the present application, should still belong to the scope of the present application.
