Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of engineering machinery technology, and in particular, relates to a method for calculating the force limit of a truck-mounted crane. Background Technology
[0002] A truck-mounted crane, also known as a truck-mounted crane, is a special type of engineering vehicle that integrates lifting equipment (cranes) directly onto a transport vehicle (usually a truck chassis). The load limit system (often called a torque limiter or load torque indicator) is the most critical and core safety protection system of the truck-mounted crane. Its function is to monitor and prevent overloading and tipping accidents during operation. It directly relates to the safety of equipment, personnel, and goods.
[0003] Most existing methods for calculating the force limit are based on the principle of torque balance: the thrust of the luffing cylinder is calculated using a hydraulic pressure sensor, and the lifting weight is calculated using the torque balance principle. That is, during lifting operations, when the boom system is in a stable state, the clockwise torque generated by all forces is equal to the counterclockwise torque (the total torque is zero). When operating a truck-mounted crane, two main types of torques are involved: the overturning moment generated by the load and the balancing moment. The formulas are as follows: Where F1 represents the force on the rodless chamber of the luffing cylinder, and F2 represents the force on the rod chamber of the luffing cylinder, F f For the friction force of the luffing cylinder, L b This indicates the lever arm of the luffing cylinder, the weight of the object being lifted, n, and L. r R represents the lever arm of the hoisting wire rope tension, R represents the working radius, self-weight represents the weight of the boom itself, and R′ represents the lever arm of the boom's own weight.
[0004] Due to the frictional force F of the hydraulic cylinder f Precise calibration is difficult and fluctuates with equipment wear and temperature changes, typically requiring extensive real-vehicle testing. Friction is affected by various factors such as cylinder seals, movement speed, cylinder machining deviations, and the external environment, making precise calibration challenging. This leads to significant discrepancies between the calculated weight (G) and the actual lifting weight (more pronounced under no-load or light-load conditions), and calibration compensation is difficult to perform, posing a risk of overloading and potentially damaging or overturning the boom, resulting in serious safety hazards. Furthermore, the boom's center of gravity dynamically changes during extension and retraction, and manufacturing errors (such as uneven material density) can distort the calculation of self-weight torque. The torque balance principle is primarily applicable to static or uniform-speed lifting scenarios, but actual operations (such as during lifting or boom luffing) generate impact loads or inertial forces. These dynamic forces are not included in the static equilibrium equations, potentially leading to conservative or risky force limit calculations.
[0005] Existing patent application CN117416866A discloses a crane force limiter system and weight calculation method, including a force limiter main unit, a display, a length sensor, an angle sensor, and a cylinder thrust sensor. The cylinder thrust sensor is installed on the luffing cylinder. The length sensor, angle sensor, and cylinder thrust sensor are each communicatively connected to the force limiter main unit to transmit their respective collected data. The force limiter main unit is communicatively connected to the display, receiving and processing the data from each sensor before transmitting the processed information to the display. The display receives the information from the force limiter main unit and displays it to the operator in real time. This patent uses the hydraulic pressure of the luffing cylinder for conversion. Due to the influence of cylinder friction, the luffing hydraulic pressure fluctuates. Furthermore, the cylinder length fluctuates due to cylinder settling, and the weight of the hydraulic fluid inside the cylinder varies, causing deviations in the force limiter's weight calculation. The measurement accuracy, especially under small loads, is low, and the calculation process is not addressed. Summary of the Invention
[0006] This invention mainly addresses the issue of hydraulic cylinder friction force F in existing technologies. f It is difficult to calibrate accurately and fluctuates with equipment wear and temperature changes. It usually requires a large number of actual vehicle test conditions for calibration. Since the friction force is affected by many factors such as cylinder seal, movement speed, cylinder machining deviation and external environment, the friction force is difficult to calibrate accurately, resulting in a large deviation between the calculated weight of G and the actual lifting weight. Therefore, a method for calculating the force limit of truck crane is proposed.
[0007] A method for calculating the force limit of a truck-mounted crane includes the following steps: S1. Real-time acquisition of the rodless chamber oil pressure, rod chamber oil pressure, and boom length of the luffing cylinder. and amplitude angle Calculate the thrust of the luffing cylinder based on its structural parameters. ; S2. Establish the geometric model of the main boom-luffing cylinder. Using the geometric coordinate relationship between the upper and lower control points of the luffing cylinder, and combining this with the point-to-line distance formula, calculate the lever arm length of the luffing cylinder relative to the lower control point of the main boom. ; S3. Based on calibration data, and by polynomial fitting, the main arm's center of gravity and main arm length are correlated. Based on the relationship and the torque balance, the distance from the boom's center of gravity to the boom's lowering point can be calculated. And calculate the lever arm of the main arm's center of gravity. ; S4. Based on the main arm length and amplitude angle Calculate the lever arm of the hook and load relative to the lower pivot point of the main boom; S5. Based on the fact that the product of the luffing cylinder thrust and the lever arm equals the total torque of the main boom's self-weight, the hook's self-weight, and the load, the load weight can be calculated. Its expression is
[0008] In the formula, This represents the total weight of the main boom system. Indicates the weight of the hook. This indicates the lever arm of the lifting hook.
[0009] Further, in step S1, the thrust calculation formula for the luffing cylinder is as follows:

[0011] Furthermore, in step S2, the variable amplitude cylinder arm The calculations include: S21. Establish a coordinate system oxy with the lower boom yoke point as the origin o, and determine the coordinates of the upper boom yoke point E of the luffing cylinder as follows: ,in, The distance from point O to point E; S22. Establish a coordinate system o1x1y1 with the lower pivot point o1 of the luffing cylinder as the origin. The intersection of the two coordinate systems is point D. Calculate the coordinates of point E in o1x1y1.
[0012] In the formula, This represents the distance from o1 to the intersection point D of the coordinate system. This represents the distance from point O to point D; S23. Solve for the slope of the center line of the variable amplitude cylinder. ;Right now ; S24. The lever arm of the variable amplitude cylinder is calculated using the point-to-line straight-line distance formula, and its expression is:
[0013] Wherein, the coordinates of point o in the o1x1y1 coordinate system are ( ).
[0014] Furthermore, the x-axis of the coordinate system oxy is along the horizontal direction, the y-axis is along the vertical direction, and the amplitude angle is... The angle between the x-axis and the main arm axis is denoted as .
[0015] Further, in step S3, the polynomial fitting includes: fixing the amplitude angle under no-load conditions. Change the length of the main arm Then record the thrust of the variable amplitude cylinder. According to the thrust of the variable amplitude cylinder Derivation of the theoretical center of gravity of the main arm The mapping relationship between the centroid of the main arm and the length of the main arm is established by fitting a curve using a sixth-order polynomial. The expression is as follows:
[0016] In the formula, Indicates the total length of the main arm. This indicates the distance from the boom's center of gravity to the boom's lower yoke point. This represents the coefficient obtained by fitting the theoretical main boom center of gravity and main boom length through the thrust of multiple sets of hydraulic cylinders.
[0017] Furthermore, in step S3, the thrust of the luffing cylinder... The torque generated at the lower control point of the main boom is always in equilibrium with the torque generated by the weight of the main boom at the lower control point, that is:
[0018] In the formula, This indicates the length of the main boom's center of gravity from the main boom's lower auger point. The lever arm that represents the center of gravity of the main arm.
[0019] Furthermore, the lever arm of the main arm's center of gravity is .
[0020] Furthermore, the total gravity of the main arm system The equivalent gravity includes the main boom, telescopic cylinder, and wire rope, and its point of application is dynamically determined through calibration fitting.
[0021] Furthermore, in step S4, the load and the lever arm of the hook relative to the lowering point of the main boom are both... .
[0022] Furthermore, the weight of the hook This can be a preset constant or obtained in real time via a pressure sensor.
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. This invention eliminates theoretical center-of-gravity deviations caused by production and assembly errors by back-calculating the position of the main boom's center of gravity using a sixth-order polynomial fitting of the main boom's center of gravity and length under no-load conditions, reducing the measured error to ≤5%. By establishing a dual coordinate system (the oxy coordinate system of the main boom's lower pivot point and the o1x1y1 coordinate system of the hydraulic cylinder's lower pivot point), and combining angle sensor data, the lever arm length is calculated in real time. This solves the problem of accumulated error in simplified models, and significantly improves accuracy, especially under large-angle variable amplitude conditions.
[0024] 2. In the calculation process, this invention directly uses the thrust of the luffing cylinder, ignoring the friction of the luffing cylinder, to calculate the thrust and then derive the theoretical center of gravity position of the main boom. The relationship between the center of gravity position of the main boom and the length of the main boom is fitted. Using a holistic approach, the actual measurable luffing cylinder pressure and its relationship with the length of the main boom are automatically fitted into a curve relationship using a large amount of data. This avoids errors caused by substituting difficult-to-predict parameters such as the friction of the luffing cylinder, assembly errors of the main boom, uneven material density distribution, and deformation into the torque calculation.

And calculate the lever arm of the main arm's center of gravity. ; S4. Based on the main arm length and amplitude angle Calculate the lever arm of the hook and load relative to the lower pivot point 1 of the main boom; S5. Based on the fact that the product of the luffing cylinder thrust and the lever arm equals the total torque of the main boom's self-weight, the hook's self-weight, and the load, the load weight can be calculated. Its expression is
[0029] In the formula, This represents the total weight of the main boom system. Indicates the weight of the hook. This indicates the lever arm of the lifting hook.
[0030] This embodiment details the force limit calculation process for truck-mounted cranes operating in scenarios with medium boom lengths (e.g., 8m, length sampling value 1690) and conventional luffing angles (e.g., 60°).

[0032] Calculate the lever arm of the variable amplitude cylinder: such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the lowering point of the main boom is denoted as point O. All points on the main boom then undergo circular motion around point O. A coordinate system oxy is established with point O, where the x-axis is horizontal and the y-axis is vertical, and the amplitude angle is [not specified]. The angle between the x-axis and the main arm axis; The upper winch point of the luffing cylinder is denoted as point E, and the distance between point E and point O is denoted as... This point is the connection point between the luffing cylinder and the fixed main boom. It can move in a circle around the lower pivot point of the main boom.

Specifically, in the unloaded state, the luffing angle is fixed. Change the length of the main arm Then record the thrust of the variable amplitude cylinder. The mapping relationship between the main boom's center of gravity and its length was established using a sixth-order polynomial fitting curve.
