[0001] This disclosure relates to the technical field of hydraulic control, and more specifically, to a control system, method, hydraulic support, and hydraulic system for a hydraulic cylinder. Background Technology

[0002] Existing hydraulic cylinder stroke testing technologies generally employ external and internal stroke sensors. External methods mostly use draw-wire displacement sensors, which are characterized by their compact structure, long measurement stroke, low cost, and easy-to-implement control programs. However, their installation requires high precision in terms of angle, parallelism, and environmental cleanliness, otherwise, their service life will be affected. Internal methods mostly use magnetostrictive displacement sensors, which are characterized by their high detection accuracy and high sensor response frequency, making them suitable for high-precision and high-speed detection applications. However, their structure is more complex, requiring the use of hollow piston rods, and manufacturing is difficult for long strokes. In high-pressure systems, high-pressure resistant measures are required, and the cost is too high. Summary of the Invention

Therefore, the above description should not be considered as limiting, but merely as an example of embodiments.

[0028] The accompanying drawings, which are included in and form part of this specification, illustrate embodiments of the present disclosure and, together with the general description of the disclosure given above and the detailed description of the embodiments given below, serve to explain the principles of the disclosure.

[0031] The above and other aspects, features and advantages of this disclosure will become more apparent when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and in view of the following detailed description.

[0032] Specific embodiments of this disclosure are described thereafter with reference to the accompanying drawings; however, it should be understood that the claimed embodiments are merely examples of this disclosure and can be implemented in various ways. Well-known and / or repetitive functions and structures are not described in detail to avoid unnecessary or redundant details that could obscure this disclosure. Therefore, the specific structural and functional details claimed herein are not intended to be limiting, but merely to serve as the basis and representative basis for the claims to teach those skilled in the art to use them in a substantially arbitrary manner.

[0033] This disclosure provides a control system for a hydraulic cylinder, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the control system is used to control the flow rate of the hydraulic cylinder 1. The hydraulic cylinder 1 is installed inside the hydraulic support, which is installed on the fully mechanized coal mining face. At least one hydraulic cylinder 1 can be installed inside the hydraulic support, and different hydraulic cylinders 1 can be used to achieve different functions for the hydraulic support.

[0034] Specifically, a piston is installed inside the hydraulic cylinder 1, and the movement of the piston is used to control the movement of the hydraulic support. Specifically, the control system of this embodiment can control the stroke of the piston inside the hydraulic cylinder 1, as well as identify and detect faults in the hydraulic cylinder 1.

[0035] Specifically, the control system includes at least one hydraulic cylinder 1, which is connected to a flow meter 2. The flow meter 2 is used to obtain the flow rate of the liquid in the hydraulic cylinder 1. The hydraulic cylinder 1 is connected to a speed control valve 3 via a hydraulic pipeline. The speed control valve 3 is connected to a controller 7 via an electro-hydraulic directional valve 6.

[0036] Furthermore, the flow meter 2 here can be an ultrasonic flow meter or a turbine flow meter. The ultrasonic flow meter is a non-invasive flow meter. The ultrasonic flow meter can be installed outside the hydraulic pipeline between the hydraulic cylinder 1 and the electro-hydraulic directional valve 6, for example, by means of an external clamp. This not only eliminates the need to disassemble the pipeline during installation, but also does not affect the original hydraulic system. The turbine flow meter can be connected inside the hydraulic pipeline between the hydraulic cylinder 1 and the electro-hydraulic directional valve 6.

[0037] Furthermore, the speed regulating valve 3 is used to control the flow rate of the liquid in the hydraulic cylinder 1, and it can be a hydraulic valve with flow regulation function.

[0038] Furthermore, the electro-hydraulic directional valve 6 can be connected to the speed control valve 3 of one or more hydraulic cylinders 1, and is used to control the action of different hydraulic cylinders 1 in the hydraulic support. Here, the hydraulic cylinder 1 can be a control hydraulic cylinder for the side guard, a hydraulic cylinder for the telescopic beam, a hydraulic cylinder for the bottom lifting, a hydraulic cylinder for the side guard, a hydraulic cylinder for the column, etc. The electro-hydraulic directional valve 6 can also have a flow regulation function.

[0039] Furthermore, the controller 7 is installed on the actuator of the hydraulic support, for example, on the four-bar linkage of the hydraulic support. The controller 7 is equipped with a stroke closed-loop control algorithm for the piston of the hydraulic cylinder 1 to control the movement of the piston in each hydraulic cylinder 1.

[0040] Considering that existing technologies typically use a single flow sensor for stroke monitoring, but the actual flow rate monitoring result is related to the pressure and temperature values ​​in the hydraulic system, resulting in a certain deviation between the actual flow rate of the hydraulic cylinder and the monitored value, and that traditional flow monitoring lacks closed-loop control and hydraulic system status monitoring functions, this is further addressed by connecting the hydraulic cylinder 1 to at least one sensor, such as at least a pressure sensor 4 and a temperature sensor 5. The pressure sensor 4 measures the pressure of the liquid in the hydraulic cylinder 1, and the temperature sensor 5 measures the temperature of the liquid in the hydraulic cylinder 1. For example, the pressure sensor 4 and the temperature sensor 5 can be integrated into the hydraulic cylinder 1, or they can be installed on the hydraulic pipeline between the hydraulic cylinder 1 and the electro-hydraulic directional valve 6 to achieve the measurement.

[0041] Furthermore, the flow meter 2 and at least one of the sensors are connected to the edge server 8. The edge server 8 can wirelessly communicate with the flow meter 2 and the sensors via various communication methods such as 5G, RS-485, and RS-232, enabling rapid wireless signal transmission without spatial limitations. The edge server 8 has data caching and data analysis processing functions, and for example, it has a built-in piston stroke calculation algorithm, which includes a compensation algorithm, a flow smoothing algorithm, and a flow stroke mapping algorithm.

[0042] Furthermore, the controller 7 is connected to the centralized control device 9. When there are multiple hydraulic cylinders 1, the centralized control device 9 can be used to monitor and control data such as the flow rate, temperature, and pressure of the liquid in different hydraulic cylinders 1.

[0043] like Figure 2As shown, in a specific embodiment, after the flow meter 2, the pressure sensor 4 and the temperature sensor 5 respectively collect the initial data such as the flow rate, pressure and temperature of the liquid in the hydraulic cylinder 1, the initial data such as the flow rate, pressure and temperature are processed by, for example, a temperature and pressure compensation algorithm and the flow smoothing algorithm.

[0044] Specifically, considering that the flow rate of the hydraulic cylinder 1 is affected by the temperature and pressure of the liquid, the flow rate of the flow meter 2 can be adjusted according to the actual temperature and pressure by using the pressure-temperature-flow relationship obtained from the pre-set test based on the temperature and pressure compensation algorithm. The flow smoothing algorithm is used to reduce noise and stabilize the flow rate of the flow meter 2. For example, Kalman filtering can be used to predict and correct the flow rate data based on the reading of the flow meter 2 and the dynamic model of the system.

[0045] Furthermore, after processing the flow rate data of the hydraulic cylinder 1 within a predetermined time using the temperature and pressure compensation algorithm and the flow smoothing algorithm, and combining it with the effective working area of ​​the hydraulic cylinder 1, the flow rate stroke mapping algorithm and other artificial intelligence algorithms (such as neural networks) are used to train a mapping model between the flow rate value and the stroke data of the piston in the hydraulic cylinder 1. Thus, the stroke data of the piston in the hydraulic cylinder 2 at any time can be obtained through the acquired real-time flow rate data.

[0046] Furthermore, the processed data of flow rate, temperature, and pressure of the hydraulic cylinder 1, along with the calculated stroke data of the piston within the hydraulic cylinder 1, can be uploaded to the controller 7 via, for example, a gigabit ring network. The stroke closed-loop control algorithm within the controller 7 then processes the data. This multi-sensor fusion for flow detection of the hydraulic cylinder 1 helps to achieve the hydraulic cylinder stroke closed-loop control function and the hydraulic system status monitoring function.

[0047] Specifically, by receiving the target value of the piston stroke in the hydraulic cylinder 1 manually input into the controller 7 or issued by the centralized control device 9, the flow rate of the hydraulic cylinder 1 is controlled by the electro-hydraulic directional valve 6 or the speed regulating valve 3, thereby achieving closed-loop control of the piston stroke in the hydraulic cylinder 1.

[0048] Furthermore, the controller 7 or the centralized control device 9 can perform sensor calibration and configuration on the flow meter 2 and the sensor, and automatically zero or calibrate the measured piston stroke in the hydraulic cylinder 1 when the piston of the hydraulic cylinder 1 is fully retracted or fully extended; in addition, calibration and configuration also help to train the flow stroke mapping algorithm based on the edge server 8, which can prevent the accumulation error of stroke data measurement and improve the accuracy of the flow stroke mapping algorithm.

[0049] Thus, by using the flow meter 2 to obtain the stroke data of the piston inside the hydraulic cylinder 1, and considering the measurement error and data fluctuation of the flow meter 2, the temperature and pressure compensation algorithm is used to compensate for the measured flow data, and the flow smoothing algorithm is used to stabilize the flow reading while eliminating singularities. Furthermore, due to factors such as liquid leakage, detection errors, and calculation conversion errors, a flow-stroke mapping algorithm is trained to obtain the mapping relationship between the piston stroke data and the flow value, enabling more accurate estimation of the piston stroke data from the flow data.

[0050] In this embodiment, the monitoring data such as the flow rate, temperature, and pressure of the liquid in the hydraulic cylinder 1 can be used to diagnose the status of different hydraulic supports in the hydraulic system. By long-term monitoring of the flow rate, temperature, and pressure of the liquid in different hydraulic cylinders 1 of different hydraulic supports in the hydraulic system, combined with the Long Short-Term Memory Network algorithm, fault feature identification can be performed, thereby monitoring faults such as leakage, blockage, overheating, cavitation, or cavitation in the hydraulic system.

[0051] This disclosure combines a flow meter and sensors to monitor and acquire the flow rate of the hydraulic cylinder. Considering the influence of various factors on the accuracy of flow monitoring, compensation and flow-stroke mapping are used to make the acquired piston stroke results in the hydraulic cylinder more accurate. By employing a closed-loop control algorithm, a speed regulating valve that controls the flow rate through the hydraulic cylinder is used to control the flow rate. Combined with hydraulic cylinder stroke monitoring, closed-loop control of the piston stroke in the cylinder is achieved. Furthermore, based on monitoring data such as flow rate, pressure, and temperature, a long short-term memory network algorithm is used for fault feature identification, enabling the monitoring of the hydraulic system's status and faults.
